Gu Long, formerly known as Xiong Yaohua, whose father Xiong Pengsheng also served as the secretary of the mayor of Taipei during the kuomintang defeat and retreat to Taiwan, Gu Long did not have any good feelings for his father since he was a child, because Xiong Pengsheng not only often abused Gu Long's mother, but also lived outside with a woman named Zhang Xiubi.
When Gu Long was 14 years old, Xiong Pengsheng ruthlessly abandoned his wife and children to marry Zhang Bixiu, and Gu Long's mother was depressed all the time, and gu Long fell ill and died when he was 17 years old. Gu Long has loved to create since high school, often submitting articles to newspapers and magazines, it is said that When Gu Long went to high school, he had a girlfriend from junior high school, called Gu Feng, and Gu Long always threw the love poems he wrote to her into the magazine, and his pen name was gu long.
In 1955, Gu Long's novel "From the North to the South" was published, and the first manuscript fee was obtained, and Gu Long's creative career began in this way, in 1957, Gu Long entered the Night English Department of Tamkang Ying Junior College, because there was no source of livelihood, Gu Long had to join the gang to make a living.

After joining the gang, Gu Long wandered into the bar and dance hall every day and got along with a dancer named Zheng Yuexia, and the two soon began to live together. At that time, Taiwanese martial arts novels were prevalent, Zhuge Qingyun, Wolong sheng, Sima Ling were the most famous martial arts novel writers at that time, because there were too many manuscripts, the three often looked for gunmen to write, and Gu Long also became the gunmen of the three in order to make a living.
Although it was only a hot hand, Gu Long also came into contact with many writers in the martial arts novel circle at that time, and even participated in the novelist party organized by Zhuge Qingyun and several other people, and Gu Long, who had a bold personality and loved to drink, soon became a little novelist friend.
In 1960, Gu Long completed the first martial arts novel "The Sword of the Firmament" with the help of several novelist friends, and Gu Long, who had a manuscript fee, was even more unscrupulous, and began to spend the day and drink with a group of friends, and many times it was until the manuscript fee was spent before he began to rush to the manuscript all night.
And Deng Yuexia also took good care of Gu Long, and also gave birth to a son for Gu Long, named Zheng Xiaolong. After the birth of his son, Gu Long's life was even more insufficient, and while writing, Gu Long also worked as a librarian, that is, during this period, Gu Long came into contact with many Western literary works, which also had a great influence on his later writing style.
In 1966, Gu Long published the novel "Absolute Double Glory", and overnight became a martial arts novel writer with the same name as Zhuge Qingyun. Gu Long can be said to have achieved fame, but Zheng Yuexia, who has suffered with him for many years, has suffered.
After having money, Gu Long became more intense, often drinking with friends outside, and even hooked up with another dancer named Ye Xue, compared to zheng Yuexia, who was old and yellow, the young and beautiful Ye Xue was naturally deeply loved by Gu Long, and Gu Long was in the limelight at that time and had a generous hand, Ye Xue also wanted to climb the high branches of The Gu Long and live a comfortable life.
In this way, Gu Long silently abandoned Zheng Yuexia and his son Zheng Xiaolong, who had accompanied him for many years, and gave birth to a second son with Ye Xue, Ye Yikuan. At that time, Gu Long had already climbed Ni Kuang and Jin Yong, and the manuscripts were endless, and Gu Long often wrote a very fascinating opening paragraph to the newspaper, first cheating the manuscript fee, and the money naturally did not have to worry.
Ye Xue originally thought that Gu Long could subsidize the family with the cost of the manuscript, but Gu Long had a harder waist plate after he had money, and nine days out of ten were spent in the bar and dance hall, for a Japanese dancer to throw a new book fee, when the fee for Gu Long's heart book was enough to buy a house in Taipei.
Ye Xue poured several bottles of XO treasured by Gu Long into the toilet in one breath, and The Qi Gu Long was furious, and in a rage, he abandoned Ye Xue and his younger son and continued to linger in the Wind and Moon Place. In 1976, Gu Long met Mei Baozhu, Mei Baozhu's family was well-off and very well-educated, and when the two were married, there were people in Taiwan's literary circles who specially wrote couplets for the two.
The upper link is "Bao Jing Zhu Hun Chun Audition", and the lower link is "Gu Tao Dragon Sword Night Paper".
According to the wife that the media is marrying, Gu Long can no longer go outside to pick flowers and stir up grass. However, Gu Long was good at this mouthful, and in the second year after marriage, Gu Long was invited to participate in the filming of the crew as the supervising producer of "Chu Liuxiang". As we all know, the entertainment industry is not lacking in beauty, and soon Gu Long got along with a 19-year-old actress, and Gu Long also promised to divorce Mei Baozhu.
Soon, the matter of the two was revealed, and the actress's family sued Gu Long in court, demanding compensation of 5 million Taiwan dollars, which was full of storms and storms in the city, and everyone knew about it. There was no way, Gu Long had to compensate 5 million Taiwan dollars, but Mei Baozhu's heart was also broken.
Originally, the lady of the big family has not been less wronged since marrying Gu Long, in 1980, Mei Baozhu formally filed for divorce, and also took away the son born with Gu Long, Xiong Zhengda. After that, Gu Long lived with a high school student named Yu Xiuling, and Yu Xiuling also accompanied Gu Long through the few times that followed.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="21" >3, excessive indulgence, untimely death</h1>
Gu Long loves to drink all his life, often drinks all night with a few friends, once drank five bottles of sky-high XO with Ni Kuang in one night, as long as he got the manuscript fee, the first time was to go to the bar and dance hall to drink freely. Gu Long's habits are also very strange, although he loves to drink, but when writing books, he does not drink alcohol, usually does not smoke much, and always one after another when it comes to writing books to rush the manuscript.
In 1980, coinciding with the filming of "Chu Liuxiang's Borrowing Corpse to Return the Soul", everyone ate a green meal in the hotel room, and Gu Long had another lavish drink that night. After a while, the people in the next private room came to ask Gu Long to toast in the past, Gu Long was not familiar with them, and drank too much, he scolded a few words very unceremoniously, who knew that the gang was actually a triad, and when he saw that Gu Long did not give face, he directly raised a knife to make trouble.
In the panic, Gu Long was slashed several times, when sent to the hospital has lost too much blood and is on the verge of death, it just so happens that the hospital does not have plasma suitable for Gu Long's blood type, and his friend rushed to the hospital in a panic, and went to the black market to buy plasma for Gu Long, saving Gu Long's life.
Who knows, this plasma is not clean, there is liver virus in it, so although Gu Long saved his life but suffered from hepatitis, during the hospitalization, the doctor constantly advised that it is best to quit drinking. But Gu Long couldn't help it at all, and always secretly drank until the second time he was admitted to the hospital and was told that it was cirrhosis.
Knowing that he had cirrhosis of his liver and could not drink alcohol, Gu Long suddenly fell ill, and he did not have the heart to write a novel for two years after not drinking Gu Long. Finally, in 1985, Gu Long really couldn't resist the urge to drink, and after drinking a few cups on the "Yinsong Pavilion", he fell down at the age of 48.

Before Gu Long died, he didn't have any girlfriend to accompany him. After his death, his friends knew that Gu Long loved to drink, and bought 48 bottles of top XO and put them in Gu Long's coffin, and buried them deep in the ground with Gu Long. And the copyright of so many works left by Gu Long after his death was also taken care of.
From 1985 to 2006, the copyright fee of Gulong's works was completely empty, and the ancient dragon works printed Chinese mainland were considered "pirated", and the three sons also fought with each other, until 2006, through DNA identification, it was determined that the three sons were the sons of Gulong, and the three sons joined forces to open the Gulong Works Protection Association and collect the royalties.
After saying that Gu Long's life, many people say that Gu Long has been a wandering skeleton all his life, more like a "rogue" and "prodigal son", and many people have compared him with Mr. Jin Yong, but you know, Gu Long has not been happy since he was a child, his father has always abandoned Gu Long very much, his height is only 158 centimeters, his head is as big as a bucket, and his small eyes also make Gu Long feel inferior, and Gu Long is a person who holds a talent and pride.
In Gu Long, inferiority and pride intersected, which led to Gu Long eventually becoming a "prodigal son" who was always chaotic and abandoned. Nevertheless, we cannot deny that Gu Long's novels have also ushered in a new era, pushing martial arts novels to a high level.
