Is the place where you live now your hometown? If not, you will feel that you often miss your hometown. This is the attraction of hometown to its homeland. Although Guo Jing did not grow up in the Southern Song Dynasty, the Central Plains undoubtedly had a deep attraction for him. Therefore, when the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan said that they would take him back to the Central Plains, there must be a lot of waves in his heart.
01 Guo Jing will return to the Central Plains
Because of Guo Jing's great achievements, Temujin rewarded him heavily and gave him his daughter Hua Zhengxu. This would have been a good thing, should have been celebrated vigorously, and everyone should have been very happy. But Guo Jing's mother, Li Ping, was not happy. Not only unhappy, but also a little sad.
It turned out that she was worried that if the Yang family gave birth to a daughter, then Guo Jing should marry her as a wife, not Hua Zheng. She asked Guo Jing to invite the six masters over to discuss the matter. As soon as the six masters heard that she was worried about this, they all advised her not to worry, and Zhu Cong told her that the Yang family was also born with a son.
Li Ping listened to Zhu Cong's words, was overjoyed, and asked Yang Tiexin and his wife whether they were still alive, and what the character of the child surnamed Yang was, but the six monsters of Jiangnan did not know. At the moment, Li Ping and the six monsters agreed that the six monsters would take Guo Jing to Jiangnan to meet with Yang Tiexin's heirs, and try to find Duan Tiande to avenge, and after returning, they would become related to Hua Zheng.
Guo Jing listened to his mother and master say this, and he must have obeyed the order. He later went to say goodbye to Genghis Khan. Of course, Temujin agreed, and instructed him to bring back Yan Honglie's head, which would also remove a great harm to the Mongols.
On the morning of the third day, Guo Jing went to Zhang Asheng's tomb with six masters to prostrate himself, parted with his mother in tears, and headed south. Li Ping looked at the tall figure of Xiaohong's son on the horse, gradually disappearing in the desert, remembering the scene of giving birth to a child in the rebellious army, and could not help but be happy and sad.
At this time, the protagonist Guo Jing will officially step into the rivers and lakes of the Central Plains after the end of the long preparatory period. What awaits him in the future? At this time he knew nothing. But he knew that he was about to return to his hometown, no, exactly, the hometown of his parents.
In any case, how many points can be determined. First, Guo Jing is about to start a new life. Second, Guo Jing's stage of learning martial arts with the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan was basically over. Third, Guo Jing will directly face the future revenge and hatred, as well as various life possibilities.
02 Homeland Attraction
In fact, Guo Jing was born in the desert, and his going to the Central Plains was actually the first time he went to the Central Plains. But why is it said here that Guo Jing is returning to the Central Plains? Mainly because the Central Plains are his hometown for him, he actually went home to the Central Plains, not to a new place.
The gravitational force of the homeland generated in Guo Jing's heart came from the Central Plains and came from Jiangnan. Then, the attraction of the homeland he felt was centered on the homeland and had its many dimensions of origin.
First, genetic sources. People are born, of course, to pass on the genes in the sense of life. This is biological gene transmission. This biological gene determines the power of the gene wrapping, that is, where Guo Jing's parents are, and he is also determined where he is. This cannot be changed and cannot be changed.
In addition, there are human spiritual genes. Li Ping instilled spiritual genes into Guo Jing from an early age, such as he was a Han Chinese, a Song person, and his homeland was in Niujia Village of the Song Dynasty. From a very young age, Guo Jing knew that he was a Song man, that his hometown was in the far south, and that place was where he should return and integrate. Because of this genetic induction, the call for mission from the distant homeland will create a very unique sense of power for Guo Jing based on a sense of belonging.
Second, the mission of the homeland. Guo Jing also has a major mission, that is, to avenge his father. This is a natural responsibility for family hatred that comes from genetic transmission.
Why did Guo Jing learn martial arts? Of course, he just wants to learn martial arts well and avenge his father. If there was no Duan Tiande and no yan Honglie, they would not have had their family broken, and Guo Jing would not have had no father since he was a child, nor would he have not enjoyed the joy of father and son, nor would he have to follow his mother to the distant bitter cold desert to live a hard life.
Third, prosperity inducement. Guo Jing returned to the Central Plains, and another reason that cannot be ignored is the induction of prosperity. The so-called prosperity induction refers to the inducement of the prosperous area to the people in the backward areas. This inductivity is a high-level induction, that is, an inevitable induction, not a temporary low-level induction characterized by fresh mystery.
To say that Guo Jing was induced by the prosperity of the Central Plains does not mean that he coveted wealth and glory, and the induction mentioned here refers to a very natural value orientation that is not aimed at the pursuit of wealth and nobility. In the history of human evolution, prosperity has often meant being based on high productivity, with greater population agglomeration as an outward manifestation. This kind of high-level prosperity is bound to have an exemplary attraction to the backward areas, pointing out to the latter the future vision of their progress and struggle.
One of the basic motivations for Guo Jing to return to the Central Plains was the urging of the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan. After spending eighteen years of youth for Guo Jing, the seven monsters of Jiangnan, they no longer miss their hometown. This kind of missing hometown also means an urgent longing for the prosperous hometown, that is, it means a bland dislike of the bitter cold desert. Of course, this also implies the rightful inducement of prosperity. The above-mentioned prosperity inducement may not be the main source of the attraction of the homeland, but it is also one of the important sources.
Fourth, master-disciple emotions. Of course, a considerable part of the attraction guo jing felt in his homeland came from his seven masters. Because they have formed a master-apprentice relationship between them, and the seven monsters can be said to be nine deaths for Guo Jing, so emotionally they are in the integration of the logical chain. The Seven Monsters Master came from Jiangnan, and their nostalgia for their homeland was really thick. This strong emotion towards the homeland will be imperceptibly transmitted to Guo Jing.
Fifth, the causal chain of the homeland. In the cause and effect of the homeland. For example, the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan came to find their mother and son, and stayed in the desert to teach him martial arts. Later, Qiu Chuji and Ma Yu successively became associated with them. Even the black wind doubles them as a negative force, and it is also the connection between the Han region and them.
This put Guo Jing under the influence of the attractiveness of his homeland. Assuming that Guo Jing knew that he was a Han Chinese, but there was no Han to influence him, then his feelings for his homeland would be very weak. The companionship of these Han Chinese, together with Li Ping, constitutes Guo Jing's causal chain attraction to his homeland.
Sixth, educational catalysis. What cannot be ignored is Li Ping's education of Guo Jing when he was a child. Education is actually the manifestation and homecoming of spiritual genes. Through the education of the concept of hometown, you can quickly shape the gravity of the homeland. After knowing where it came from and what kind of people's descendants are, you can quickly open up your past and present selves, you will determine your own source, and you will inevitably have a sense of gravity in your heart.
03 Blood attribution power and human traceability instinct
From the above, it can be seen that the attraction of Guo Jing's homeland is mainly due to the fact that he himself is a Han Chinese born to Guo Xiaotian and Li Ping, and is a descendant of the Central Plains people. This means that at the heart of the appeal of the homeland is the power of deep blood belonging.
The gravitational force of the homeland means that the blood attribution force is greater than the environmental catalytic force. Kinship is a unique, direct, and profound factor that determines what kind of fundamental power a person really is. The environment is a mass, indirect and shallow influencing factor, which can have a subtle impact on people's sense of belonging, but it is far less intense than the sense of blood belonging. As the saying goes, "blood is thicker than water", that's what it means.
The gravitational force that Guo Jing felt in the homeland came from the Central Plains and the Song Dynasty. In essence, he was a Song himself. This also means that No matter how many years Guo Jing is, he will not belong to the Mongolian desert. This is a kind of attribution fixed number, which can be changed by non-external forces.
This kinship attribution force, which in itself means that the path dependence of the initial gene formation is impossible to replace by any other experience. There is an old Chinese saying that the leaves of a tree that are tall and fall back to their roots express people's inner yearning for their homeland. Unless the memories left by their hometown are too negative, they generally still have their hearts set on their homeland.
The existence of the power of blood belonging often makes people have a traceability instinct, that is, always thinking of finding their own source. This instinct of tracing means that people always have to look for a sense of belonging and psychological stability. Only when the psychology reaches this level of stable belonging, the human psychology will live calmly.
Manifested in people's psychology, that is, there is a general sense of root-seeking. Especially for those who have left their hometowns, this awareness and feeling is even stronger. Where it came from, where it went. For example, people who live in other cities now often have nostalgia. Worried about what? I miss my hometown, but I can't go back. Only during the New Year, when there is something special, can you return to your hometown for a short time.
Because Guo Jing was young, he also wanted to take revenge on Xue Hate, so it was inevitable that he would return to his hometown. And his mother Li Ping, because she was old, could not work for a long time, so she could only stay in the distant Mongolian desert. And everyone knows her future ending, that is, to die in a foreign land and sleep in the desert. Think about it, how much Li Ping wants to go back and see it in her heart.
For those who can never go back, the most beautiful taste in the world is the memory of their hometown. I remember that many people in the liangguang area used to leave their hometowns to go to Nanyang to make a living in order to survive, and before they went, they had to hold a handful of dirt from their hometowns. Although many of them can no longer come back, they will still take out a piece of dirt when they miss their hometown and look at it to reminisce about the sad past.
