In Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts novel "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", Yang Guo is a widely loved character, he is brave, intelligent, and delicate.
In the sequel to "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", "Yitianzhong", it has triggered a hot topic - is Yang Dingtian the son of Yang Guo? In order to understand this question deeply, it is necessary to explore three characters: Yang Guo, Xiaolongnu and Yang Dingtian.
Yang Guo, a boy on the grassland, is the best martial arts wizard in the world. He broke the Peach Blossom Island stunt and repaired the Wuyue Sword Sect's mental technique, but the real kung fu was returned to his sleep. He guarded for Erqizi and helped Shiro find his mother, he met Hua Manlou, Xiang Wentian, and was called "the dragon among people" by Xiao Feng.
Xiaolongnu is a superior person, dressed as ordinary, going back and forth to the rivers and lakes, killing people like hemp. She was raised by the gods since she was a child, cultivated the Ice Spirit Jade Heart Pill, and practiced peerless martial arts. She later married Yang Guo and gave birth to her son Yang Kang and daughter Yang Yuan, but then disappeared into the rivers and lakes.
Yang Dingtian is a smart, witty, witty figure in the rivers and lakes, he is good at solving problems with strategy and negotiation, and is deeply trusted and respected by all parties in the rivers and lakes. However, his background is full of mysteries and speculations, and some people rumor that he is the son of Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu.
What is the root of these rumors? On the surface, there seems to be no clear evidence that Yang Dingtian's life history is Yang Guo's son, but through the description and analysis of the novel's plot, a series of evidence can be found to imply that Yang Dingtian is Yang Guo's son.
First of all, the novel reveals that Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu were married and had sons and daughters, but for some reason, Xiaolongnu gradually disappeared into the rivers and lakes, so their son Yang Kang and daughter Yang Yuan also passed away at an early age. Although there is no clear evidence about Xiaolongnu's departure, the plot reveals that Yang Guo has always been cared for by Xiaolongnu, and he will be very sad whenever he hears the news of Xiaolongnu.
Secondly, from Yang Dingtian's body, you can see the shadows of Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu. In "Leaning on the Sky", Yang Dingtian is described as having a silhouette that resembles Yang Guo, with beautiful eyebrows. In addition, Yang Dingtian's martial arts are very similar to Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu, they have all Xi the Ice Spirit Jade Heart Pill, are proficient in the Nine Yang True Scripture, and can lift weights lightly and make ruthless moves.
Finally, Mr. Jin Yong, the author of the novel, also said in many interviews and speeches that the statement that Yang Dingtian is the son of Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu is actually influenced by Huang Rong and Wei Xiaobao in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to cultivate the descendants of the heirs.
