1. Returning to the West - the final chapter of the end!
Time passed to September 1985, this master who was unique in the martial arts world, once again caused a sudden outbreak of old liver disease due to long-term indulgence in the things in the cup, and his life was in danger.
At this moment, he knew very well that his life had come to an end.
Standing on the hospital bed, Gu Long's face was as pale as paper, and the sparkle of his eyes had disappeared. He is full of endless nostalgia for the world's fine wines and delicacies and the stories of the wind and snow, however, every cell in his body is frantically calling for "stay away from alcohol".
This sentence profoundly reveals Gu Long's dedication to love and obsession with women, and also reveals the deep grief and melancholy in his heart. Although he was chic and comfortable all his life, at the last moment of his life, he was unaccompanied, and this loneliness made him unable to hide his inner loss.
Yu Xiuling looked dazed, and before she could respond, Gu Long had already closed her eyes and bid farewell to this world forever. His heart to pursue the prodigal son of the rivers and lakes stopped beating forever at the age of 48.
2. Merry debts - the fuse of life crisis!
Back in October 1980, when the filming of Baolong Film Company's "Chu Liuxiang's Resurrection of the Corpse" was completed, the 42-year-old Gu Long and his crew gathered together to celebrate the successful completion of the film.
After three rounds of drinking, Gu Long was already drunk and hazy, and he was still unsatisfied. At this time, a subordinate junior brother beside him whispered to him: "Gu Daxia, do you know that Yin Song Pavilion has another batch of freshly baked beauties tonight?" The little brother's eyes flashed with cunning and ridicule.
Gu Long's heart moved, and he remembered that place full of temptation. So, he decided to go there in search of new joy.
In the Yinsong Pavilion, Gu Long is immersed in the sea of fine wine and beauties, as the saying goes, "Wine meets a confidant in a thousand cups". However, the good times are always short-lived, and a group of his entourage gets into an argument with actor Ke Junxiong's men over trivial matters, and the atmosphere is extremely tense.
A drunken Gu Long tries to mediate the dispute, but is suddenly attacked by a resentful younger brother. Blood splattered, and the ancient dragon was instantly covered in blood and seriously injured.
It is understood that the younger brother's girlfriend was once infected by Gu Long, so he held a grudge against him and committed this murder. It's a pity that Gu Long has long forgotten about this, because he is addicted to beauty, and the women he once owned are really countless, and it is inevitable that there will be some omissions.
This is the price and debt that comes with his unruly lifestyle.
Although Gu Long's friend Ke Junxiong showed his heroic nature and bravely rescued him, he never expected that what he bought was blood carrying the hepatitis virus, which was unfortunately injected into Gu Long's body.
Since then, Gu Long has fallen into the valley of liver disease, painstaking loneliness, and even the tragic situation of struggling on the edge of life, all because of his indulgence in a drunken lifestyle, drunk and wealthy.
3. The waves of the rivers and lakes, the fluctuating life between the rolling sheets
From an unknown martial arts rookie to a pivotal martial arts master, Gu Long's life can be called ups and downs and full of legends. However, the trajectory of his life is like the life portrayal of those gentlemen in his pen, drifting with the tide and free and uninhibited.
In the journey of the ancient dragon prancing horse and rising to prominence, he met the three major martial arts masters in Taiwan, the "Three Musketeers", and the martial arts predecessors of Hong Kong martial arts master Liang Yusheng.
It was with the support and praise of these seniors that he was able to gradually emerge and become famous in the martial arts world.
However, after his fame, Gu Long became unruly and profligate. He has made confidantes widely, such as dancer Zheng Yuexia, girl star Zhao Zijing, young female writer Yu Xiuling and so on.
For the sake of these beauties, he has betrayed his promise many times, abandoned his wife and children, and ignored his son Zheng Xiaolong and his wife.
Gu Long once said frankly to his friends: "Without women, I can't live." "The level of his obsession with women is jaw-dropping. When getting together with his friend Ni Kuang and others, he was even more drunk, teasing each other and drinking happily.
They often sing and sing, drink booze, feast in nightclubs, drink in large bowls, and drink five bottles of XO in one sitting. After getting drunk, he was even more profligate, and he did something to the beauty, and Sanmao and others had learned his "salty pig hand".
What's more, Gu Long actually showed off his secrets of hunting beauty to his friends, boasting that he had recently changed his new tastes, and invited several "beautiful" foreign girls in the new play. Gu Long's extreme obsession with women undoubtedly foreshadows his eventual tragic end.
However, for most of his life, he enjoyed the debauchery of the prodigal son.
Fourth, the arduous journey of the road to fame
Gu Long, who was only seventeen years old, was formerly known as Xiong Yaohua, holding a sharp blade and holding a pen tightly, and began his life of poetry and wine. At that time, Taiwan's martial arts literary scene was dominated by the "Three Musketeers" Sima Ling, Wo Longsheng, and Zhuge Qingyun, who had already spread their reputation, and it was not easy for newcomers to gain a foothold.
Gu Long has great ambitions and deliberately devotes himself to the field of martial arts creation, but he has never been able to get the opportunity he deserves. In this predicament, he seized the opportunity with keen insight, took the initiative with extraordinary perseverance and outstanding talent, and selflessly ghostwrote for the Three Musketeers to earn the necessities of life.
It is because of his tireless efforts that he finally managed to integrate into this challenging family.
At first, the Three Musketeers were rather indifferent to Gu Long, and only let him take on the hardest and most tiring work. However, Gu Long was not discouraged by this, but with perseverance, he did his best to find a livelihood for their group.
With Gu Long's ghostwriting, the life of the Three Musketeers naturally became much easier, and they often invited Gu Long to gather together, play mahjong, open salons, and enjoy a leisurely writing life.
In a grand gathering, the Three Musketeers talked eloquently, but Gu Long was the only one who drank silently, showing a hero-like demeanor. This scene deeply attracted the attention of martial arts master Liang Hansheng.
He drank a few glasses with Gu Long, and was surprised to find that this young man with a big head like a ghost had such an outstanding talent, and since then, Liang has often entrusted Gu Long to write for him, and Gu Long's value has also risen as a result.
In 1973, Mr. Jin Yong, who had become a martial arts master, visited Taiwan and deliberately took time to meet the 36-year-old Gu Long. The two masters talked happily, and Jin Daxia gave high praise and affirmation to this young and promising junior.
Since then, Gu Long's reputation has become increasingly loud, and he is as famous as Jin Yong, and is known as the "martial arts double".
Despite the ups and downs in the process of growing up, Gu Long finally created a world of his own in the martial arts world with his firm will and outstanding talent.
5. Reveal the motives of Gu Long's pure heart in life
When Gu Long was a child, he lived in a seemingly happy family. However, a sudden turn of events completely turned his world upside down.
One day, Gu Long witnessed his father's betrayal, and the family broke up. This unforgettable family trauma laid the groundwork for Gu Long's future bohemian life.
At the age of 17, he left home and began a life of wandering, heroic, and had a unique preference for beauty.
Perhaps out of rebellion against his father, who had hurt him, or perhaps out of a desperate desire for the warmth of his family, Gu Long chose to indulge in wine. Wandering in the rivers and lakes, with nothing to do, he unknowingly fell into a life of drunkenness and gold, and gradually lost the direction of progress.
Although he later became famous and prominent, the eternal lack of family affection in his heart could never be compensated. So, he projected this regret onto the women, coveted their gentleness, and tried to find some comfort from it.
However, it is a pity that this path was never realized, and the path of his life was engraved with deep loneliness and regret. Chapter 6: An Interlude to a Magnificent Transformation!
In the fifties of the last century, the battle between the Tai Chi and the White Crane sect in Hong Kong's martial arts community ignited a lot of interest from the audience. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liang Yusheng and other writers seized the opportunity to serialize and publish their "new martial arts" novels, which instantly won warm praise from the majority of readers.
During that period, martial arts novels rose like a rising star in the literary world in Hong Kong, setting off a magnificent martial arts craze. Martial arts heroes have emerged, and a new era of chivalrous men has arrived.
This frenzy that swept through the martial arts quickly spread to the entire Chinese-speaking world, and also caused huge repercussions on the treasure island of Taiwan. The local "Three Musketeers" - Sima Ling, Wo Longsheng and Zhuge Qingyun and other well-known writers have devoted themselves to the creation of martial arts novels, injecting new vitality into martial arts literature.
Just when this new style of martial arts from Hong Kong was prevalent in Taiwan, Gu Long, a young talent who was still studying on campus at the time, witnessed all this happening. He had an incomparable desire and longing in his heart to become a true martial arts master.
This accidental interlude undoubtedly laid a solid foundation for Gu Long to shine in the field of martial arts creation in the future. Although his initial stage was full of hardships, with his outstanding talent and perseverance, he finally broke out in the martial arts, stood side by side with Jin Yong, and became a new generation of champions.
