"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are two masterpieces, both of which are Mr. Jin Yong's classic business cards, and are loved by the audience and readers.
Not only does each character have their own unique personality and background, but they also have their own goals to strive for.
And as Mr. Jin Yong's proud work, in these two works, Mr. Jin Yong, the definition of "chivalry" in the new era is also instilled.
Different from the "fighting, killing and killing" of martial arts novels in the old era, Mr. Jin Yong's "chivalrous" spirit in the new era is full of a kind of "the road is uneven, draw a sword to help, and the great man is for the country and the people." The spirit of great love.
This is also the reason why many protagonists in the book repay their grievances with virtue and ignore their selfish interests for the overall situation, and it is precisely because of this that the audience loves these works even more.
In the setting of these two works, the five masters of East Evil, West Poison, Southern Emperor, Northern Beggar, and Zhongshentong, known as the Old Five Uniques, are the ceiling of combat power in the book.
However, there is one person who is not afraid of the evil and the poison of the east and the west, just because he has a great master, even Hong Qigong has to give his master face, this person is Qiu Qianren!
01 The strength is second only to the five uniques, and the east and the west are poisonous
Qiu Qianren's appearance rate in the two works is not high, especially in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which almost appeared in the second half.
At the Beggars Gang Junshan Conference, the real Qiu Qianren appeared in front of everyone, and the "Qiu Qianren" who appeared before was basically pretended by his brother Qiu Qianzhang.
In particular, it can be seen how "loud" Qiu Qianren's name is in the rivers and lakes.
In these two works, there are many details that can be seen that Qiu Qianren's martial arts are extraordinary, and he doesn't even take the old five uniques in his eyes.
First of all, when Huashan discussed the sword for the first time, Wang Chongyang, one of the old five peers, invited Qiu Qianren to participate.
Those who can participate in this event are all the top masters who have been famous in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and Wang Chongyang can personally invite them, and Qiu Qianren's martial arts level can be imagined.
Secondly, it was mentioned in the work that Ouyang Feng knew that Qiu Qianren was powerful, and Qiu Qianren beat the long-famous Hengshan faction to a slump with a pair of iron palms, and achieved the name of iron palm floating on the water.
From this point, it is enough to see that even Ouyang Feng faced Qiu Qianren, and he felt admiration for his martial arts.
Moreover, when Qiu Qianren knew that Huang Rong was Huang Yaoshi's baby daughter, he dared to beat Huang Rong to a serious injury, and even almost died, which shows that Qiu Qianren is not worried about Huang Yaoshi's revenge at all.
Finally, through the dialogue between Huang Rong and Guo Jing, we can also see that Qiu Qianren's martial arts are not under Zhou Botong and Hong Qigong, but because Qiu Qianren is too villainous, he lost first in terms of momentum.
But no matter what, Qiu Qianren's martial arts are not as good as the old five uniques, at most he is the first person under the five uniques, so why does he have the confidence to not be afraid of the evil of the east and the poison of the west? Hong Qigong revealed the answer!
At that time, Qiu Qianren was still dreaming of being "the best in the world", standing on the commanding heights of morality, forcing Guo Jing, Huang Yaoshi and others to make it difficult to shoot at him.
As a result, Hong Qigong stepped forward and said: "Qiu Qianren, what a hero Shangguan Jiannan, the leader of your Iron Palm Gang, loyal to the country all his life, and then died. Isn't your master a good man?"
This sentence reveals the mystery, the reason why Lao Wuren does not make a move on Qiu Qianren, and prefers to swallow his anger, is actually "not looking at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha", it is completely on the face of Qiu Qianren's master, that is, Shangguan Jiannan.
02 Patriot
Shangguan Jiannan is not an ordinary knight, he was originally a subordinate of the famous general Han Shizhong of the Song Dynasty, and later Yue Fei died tragically, and Han Shizhong was also taken into the army.
Shangguan Jiannan was cold, so he took a few brothers to the rivers and lakes, and joined the Iron Palm Gang by mistake.
At that time, the Iron Palm Gang was just a small gang with a small name, but after Shangguan Jiannan's rectification, it soon became famous in the rivers and lakes.
It has even attracted many masters to join, and the overall strength of the Iron Palm Gang has increased rapidly, and it will not be long before it can be compared with the influence of the Beggar Gang.
And although Shangguan Jiannan is not above the court, he still cares about the country, and all he thinks about is how to fight against foreign enemies.
In order to pass on Yue Fei's skills, he did not hesitate to sneak into the palace, steal Wu Mu's suicide note, and hide it in Tiezhang Mountain. I hope that future generations can learn Xi hard and fight against the Jin Kingdom in the future.
But his behavior clearly caused Jin Guo's dissatisfaction. The Jin State constantly put pressure on the Song Dynasty to force the Song Dynasty to exterminate the Iron Palm Gang.
Even though the Iron Palm Gang had a large scale at that time, it was far inferior to the encirclement and suppression of a country.
After this battle, the Iron Palm Gang suffered heavy losses, and Shangguan Jiannan was also seriously injured to death, and before he died, he passed the position of the leader of the Iron Palm Gang to Qiu Qianren.
03 The great man of chivalry, for the country and the people
Although Shangguan Jiannan has good martial arts, he will not make the old five absolute feel afraid, not to mention that Shangguan Jiannan at that time has already died.
Even if you want to take revenge on the old five, you can't do anything. Then why did Lao Wujue sell him a "face" again? This is about the setting of Mr. Jin Yong's "new martial arts" world.
In the old martial arts era, it was important to repay kindness and revenge. No matter whether this person's character is good or bad, if there is a grudge, then there will definitely be a life-and-death struggle.
Sometimes there is even no injustice or hatred, as long as there are enough interests involved, then you will fight to the death.
If it is placed in the old martial arts era, with Qiu Qianren's actions, I am afraid that he will not live to the end at all.
But this is not the case in Mr. Jin Yong's new martial arts era. In the new martial arts world built by Mr. Jin Yong, no matter whether a person's martial arts are high or not, as long as he has enough chivalrous courage, then he is a hero.
On the contrary, no matter how high a person's martial arts are, he will only do evil, then he has nothing to do with the word chivalry.
To put it bluntly, in Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts world, "chivalry" is a spiritual embodiment, the so-called "chivalrous man, for the country and the people." "That's it.
is like Wei Xiaobao in "The Legend of Deer and Ding", Wei Xiaobao's martial arts are well-known at what level, but who can say that he is not a hero?
It is precisely because of this that the existence of Shangguan Jiannan is a hero admired by the old five, and Qiu Qianren is the only living relative of Shangguan Jiannan.
It has always been because of Shangguan Jiannan that they have endured Qiu Qianren many times and could not bear to hurt his life.
And we all know the ending of Qiu Qianren, he later followed Master Yideng into the empty gate to make amends, and was finally seriously injured by King Jinlun.
After getting the understanding of Zhou Botong and his wife, he passed away peacefully, and his final performance seemed to have reached the standard of "chivalry".
