Liang Yusheng's martial arts novels cannot be read separately. If you just read a novel of his, it is difficult to understand the whole picture of the characters and the history of the development of the rivers and lakes.
For example, if you just watch "Makino Meteor", it is difficult for you to have an understanding of the life of Tang Jingtian. Tang Jingtian's earliest appearance was in "The Legend of the Glacier Heavenly Maiden", and he is the male protagonist of the novel.
He is the son of Tang Xiaolan and Feng Ying, and the young head of the Tianshan faction. After Tang Xiaolan's death, he inherited the position of the head of the Tianshan faction, and had a constant relationship with Jin Shiyi, Jiang Haitian and others.
There are many characters across multiple novels in this way, so Liang Yusheng's novels should be divided into series. If you watch the Datang series, you have to watch "The Legend of the Empress Qiying", "The Legend of the Tang Ranger", "Dragon and Phoenix Treasure Hairpin", "Hui Jian Love Silk".
Only in this way can you understand Liang Yusheng's Tang Fengyun series, understand the relationship between the characters in it, as well as the historical stage and martial arts inheritance.
And it's not good to finish watching the whole series, and some series have more compact relationships with each other. Like the Ping Trace series and the Tianshan series, the relationship is very deep. For example, the character Huo Tiandu appeared in the Ping Trace series, and appeared again in the Tianshan series.
As the originator of the Tianshan School, how Huo Tiandu founded the Tianshan School, how he created the Tianshan Sword Technique, and what his personal life is is that needs to be understood.
In addition, Zhang Danfeng has also been mentioned many times in the Ping Trace series and Tianshan series, and he is also a very key figure. In the Ping Trace series, he has received a lot of disciples.
In the Tianshan series, a disciple was also accepted. To understand Zhang Danfeng's martial arts achievements and how many disciples he has accepted, you have to read the Tianshan series and the Ping trace series.
Just like the topic I want to talk about today, Zhang Danfeng's two disciples, Meng Hua and Chen Shixing, if they hadn't watched the Tianshan series and the Ping Trace series, there would really be no way to talk about this topic.
As a generation of martial arts masters written by Liang Yusheng, Zhang Danfeng is very famous. Many people regard "Ping Tracer Film" as Liang Yusheng's peak work, and Zhang Danfeng is from the peak work, and he is still the hero of the novel.
Just as Jin Yong likes to write about heroes, Gu Long likes to write about prodigal sons, and Liang Yusheng likes to write about celebrities. And Zhang Danfeng is the representative of celebrities, who is also crazy and chivalrous, who can sing and cry. A talented man, a master of martial arts.
There is no need to say more about how strong Zhang Danfeng's personal charm is. Zhang Danfeng has a great influence, and he was the number one master in the world during his lifetime. And after his death, there are still his legendary stories circulating in the rivers and lakes.
And what is even more incredible is that after Zhang Danfeng's death, he still has two disciples. One is his closed disciple Chen Shixing, and the other is his next-world disciple Meng Hua. These two disciples are special because of their relationship with Zhang Danfeng.
Chen Shixing became Zhang Danfeng's disciple before Zhang Danfeng's death, and after getting along with Zhang Danfeng for less than half a day, Zhang Danfeng ran out of oil and drove west. As for Meng Hua, he was from the Qing Dynasty, and he had never even met Zhang Danfeng, the master of the Ming Dynasty.
Because Jianfeng discovered the Xuangong tips and nameless swordsmanship left by Zhang Danfeng in the stone forest, he became Zhang Danfeng's disciple in the next life. Such an adventure, even Tang Jingtian, who was the head of the Tianshan faction, felt incredible and shocked. No wonder Meng Hua wanted to worship under the Tianshan Sect, and Tang Jingtian didn't dare to accept him as a disciple.
Because in terms of seniority, Meng Hua is Zhang Danfeng's disciple, but he is much higher than Tang Jingtian in terms of seniority, which is not an equal generation. However, under Meng Hua's repeated pleas, Tang Jingtian made Meng Hua a registered disciple of the Tianshan faction. So as the last two disciples of Zhang Danfeng, who has stronger martial arts between Chen Shixing and Meng Hua?
First of all, let's introduce these two disciples of Zhang Danfeng, Chen Shixing is the male protagonist of "Guangling Sword", from the Ping Trace series. As can be seen from the title of the book, this is a finale and a work of pathos. Just as Guangling San became a swan song, and the nameless swordsmanship also became a swan song after Chen Shixing's death.
Chen Shixing was originally a very ordinary peasant child, and he followed his grandfather for his life. Because he inadvertently saved the hero Yun Hao, he intersected with Zhang Danfeng. Before Yun Hao died, he handed over his treasure knife and sword book to Chen Shixing, and asked him to go to the stone forest to find Zhang Danfeng. Chen Shixing went through hardships and dangers and found Zhang Danfeng.
After Zhang Danfeng roared to death and killed Liuyang Zhenjun and Jiupanpo in seconds, he accepted Chen Shixing as a closed disciple. and told Chen Shixing that he had left Xuangong tips and nameless swordsmanship in Jianfeng, and then died. Chen Shixing followed Zhang Danfeng's instructions and found two major martial arts classics and practiced in the stone forest for 3 years.
Three years later, 18-year-old Chen Shixing made his debut in the rivers and lakes, met Yun Hao's daughter Yunhu, and befriended Duan Jianping, Han Zhi, Qiu Chi, Zhou Shanmin, Black and White Maha and others, thus starting a legendary journey in the rivers and lakes. It's just that the ending was very miserable, and he was calculated by Murong Gui, mistakenly obeyed the fake He Shouwu, and died of severe poison in his body.
Before he died, he played a song of Guanglingsan. After the strings broke, he died. In "Guangling Sword", Chen Shixing played Guangling San three times in total, and each time it was a very important moment. The first time was when Yun Hao died tragically, and he played a song. The second time was before Zhang Danfeng died, he played a song. The third time, before he died, he played a song for himself.
Joys and sorrows, life and death, seem to come to an end in every playing. After talking about Chen Shixing, let's introduce Meng Hua, Meng Hua is from Liang Yusheng's Tianshan series, and appears as the male protagonist in "Muye Meteor". In fact, he first appeared in "Wandering Swords", but he was still a child at that time.
Meng Hua is the son of Meng Yuanchao and Yun Ziluo, and Yang Yan is a half-brother. Meng Yuanchao's knife skills are exquisite, and he has the title of the world's fastest knife. Meng Hua studied under Dian Cangshuangsha and Danqiusheng, and his martial arts foundation is very solid. Later, by chance, he obtained the nameless swordsmanship and Xuangong tips that Zhang Danfeng left in the stone forest, and became Zhang Danfeng's disciple in the next life.
Meng Hua studied swords in Shilin for 7 years, and after wandering the rivers and lakes, he successively met Miao Changfeng, Jin Zhuliu, Tang Jiayuan, Meng Yuanchao and others, and met Jin Zhuliu's daughter Jin Biyi, who grew up and experienced, so that he finally won the title of the world's first swordsman. So Chen Shixing and Meng Hua, the two disciples of Zhang Danfeng, who has stronger martial arts?
It goes without saying that it was naturally Meng Hua who won. First of all, Meng Hua has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, while Chen Shixing had hardly practiced martial arts before he was 15 years old and had no foundation in martial arts. Before Meng Hua became Zhang Danfeng's disciple in the next life, he had already learned a lot of kung fu from Dian Cangshuangsha, such as Mianzhang and the Duan family's swordsmanship. After that, he followed Dan Qiusheng, the first swordsman of the Kongtong faction, to learn the swordsmanship of the Kongtong faction, and practiced the killer stunt Hu Ji eighteen beats.
A single sword stab can leave 36 sword wounds on the opponent's body. Yu Wenbo, the first demon of the evil sect, was once hit by Meng Hua with eighteen beats of Hu Ji, if it weren't for Meng Hua's mercy, Yu Wenbo would have died on the spot. got the guidance of the three masters, and then got Zhang Danfeng's cheats, of course, it was like a tiger. Therefore, after Meng Hua debuted, he was able to fight with Miao Changfeng, and even Miao Changfeng sighed that in another ten years, the title of the first swordsman in the world would be given to Meng Hua.
In addition to fighting against Miao Changfeng, Meng Hua also fought against Jin Zhuliu, Meng Yuanchao and Tang Jiayuan, all of whom had amazing results. And in the end, when he fought Hailancha, the first master of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Jin Zhuliu was even more shocked, thinking that Meng Hua's swordsmanship would surpass him in three years. The meaning is obvious, Meng Hua will become the number one swordsman in the world in three years. Therefore, compared with Meng Hua, Chen Shixing's martial arts foundation is not as good as Meng Hua's, and the types of martial arts he has learned are not as numerous as Meng Hua's.
It is precisely because of this that when Chen Shixing first entered the rivers and lakes, he was able to deal with ordinary masters with ease. Once he encountered a weighty master, he couldn't deal with it alone, so he had to join forces with Yunhu and use a combination of two swords. So they are also Zhang Danfeng's disciples, although Meng Hua and Chen Shixing are of the same age, they are obviously stronger than Meng Hua. However, these two brothers are also very interesting, one is from the Ming Dynasty and the other is from the Qing Dynasty.
