Liang Yusheng is the founding ancestor of the new school of martial arts novels, "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" is one of Liang Yusheng's famous works, the most eye-catching of which is the image of the heroine he created, and his love story with Zhuo Yihang.

Their love is liang Yusheng's most shocking love, but also the most heart-wrenching love. Watching the practice of neon clothes overnight, the moment when the green silk changed into white hair, anyone would be shocked.
Jin Yong's "Deer Ding"
Jin Yong is the grand master of martial arts novels and the "ally" of the new school of martial arts novels, and "Deer Ding" is his last novel, which is regarded as the highest peak of his creation.
Jin Yong's previous works are the fierce and fierce sword, the soft sword, the heavy sword, and the grass, wood, bamboo and stone can be swords, although it is enough to run rampant in the world, but until the "Deer Ding Record", it has truly reached the state of "no sword is better than a sword".
The protagonist Wei Xiaobao in "Deer Ding" is a "leper hero" and "leper hero" - not a hero of a hero, not a "hero" of a hero.
He is a little rogue and a little scoundrel who grew up in the city. He is the most able to praise and lie, and the bragging skills of "wearing thousands of clothes, not wearing horses" have enabled him to escape from death several times, turn danger into disaster, and go straight up to the clouds; false and true, true and false lies can also make the enemy fear or turn the enemy into a friend, and escape with his life in a critical moment.
But he is not simply a small scoundrel, he still has the character of heavy righteousness and sacrifice of life and death.
He saved the Qing Emperor Kangxi several times, not because Kangxi was emperor, but because he regarded Kangxi as his own brother and good friend. Wei Xiaobao did not save Chen Jinnan because the chief helmsman of this Heaven and Earth Society represented the righteous forces of the people, but regarded him as his father in his mind.
Greedy and afraid of death, but there is also a rogue who is not afraid of death, not only embezzling bribes and loving money, but also generous and generous for friends at the expense of money... All kinds of contradictory personalities are intertwined to form a three-dimensional "Wei Xiaobao" image with flesh and blood.
He is the typical of freedom, the typical of the most affectionate; this truth of his makes him one of the most successful characters written by Jin Yong.
Gu Long "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword"
Gu Long was an innovator of the new school of martial arts novels and had a wide influence among young readers. "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword", also known as "The First Knife of the Wind and Clouds", is one of the masterpieces of Gu Long's novels and belongs to the first part of the "Little Li Flying Knife" series. The book is vivid, interlocking, fascinating, and highly artistically accomplished, and is recognized as the pinnacle of Gulong's martial arts work.
Cao Zhengqun, a famous writer in Taiwan, believes: "It is not only a book that expounds the true meaning of martial arts, but also a historical painting of human feelings that writes about the cold state of the world, and it is also a cautionary masterpiece that touches social reality and explores life." ”
In "The Ruthless Sword of the Amorous Swordsman", Gu Long borrowed from the creative experience of Western detective novels and added the elements of Western detective reasoning to create a martial arts mystery novel.
His "personal hero" Li Xunhuan is both a chivalrous warrior with Chinese characteristics and a detective-style hero. At the same time, Li Xunhuan's image is civilian, showing the awakening of the individual, the pursuit of freedom, and the liberation of the shackles of human nature. In addition, although Li Xunhuan has various shortcomings, it makes us feel very kind.
Such a hero as Li Xunhuan has never been seen in previous martial arts novels, and he has broken through the tall and complete chivalrous image of "for the country and the people".
Since then, the meaning of chivalry in Chinese culture has truly been enriched.
