Jin Yong, formerly known as Zha Liangyong, is a champion of modern Chinese martial arts novels, and his works are deeply loved by readers. As one of Mr. Jin Yong's masterpieces, "Dragon Babu" has been famous for its grand narrative structure, complex character relationships and profound ideological connotations since its inception. In the new revised version, Jin Yong has made a series of revisions to the original work, the most notable of which is the major adjustment to the ending of the protagonist Duan Yu.
In the original book, Duan Yu finally tied the knot with many female characters such as Wang Yuyan, Zhong Ling, and Mu Wanqing, and lived a happy life. However, this ending does not correspond to the life of the historical prototype Duan Heyu. Duan Heyu, the historical Emperor Xuanren of Dali, was an important monarch of Dali, and during his reign he implemented a series of reform measures that promoted the prosperity and development of the country. However, according to historical records, Duan Heyu finally chose to become a monk and ended his imperial career.
Jin Yong modified Duan Yu's ending in the newly revised version to make it closer to the historical prototype. This revision reflects Jin Yong's respect for the fate of historical figures, and also reflects his deep thinking about the world of martial arts. In the new revised version, after experiencing a series of adventures and challenges, Duan Yu gradually realizes the cruelty of power struggles and the complexity of human nature. He began to reflect on his identity and mission, and was tired of the strife in the rivers and lakes and the intrigues of the imperial court.
The ending of Duan Yu in the newly revised version is that he met a high monk by chance. This eminent monk was deeply impressed by Duan Yu with his profound wisdom and compassion. Under the guidance of the eminent monks, Duan Yu began to study Buddhism and gradually realized the true meaning of life. He realized that both emperors and commoners could not escape death in the end, and that only by practicing Buddhism could they transcend the cycle of birth and death and achieve true liberation.
At the end of the newly revised version, Duan Yu finally decided to give up the throne and become a monk after some inner struggles and choices. He said goodbye to Wang Yuyan, Zhong Ling, Mu Wanqing and other lovers, left the bustling palace, came to the ancient temple in the deep mountains, and began his own spiritual life. Although this ending is a bit tragic compared with the original book, it is more in line with the historical prototype and more profoundly reveals the complexity of human nature and the impermanence of life.
Jin Yong's revision in the new revised version is not only an adjustment of Duan Yu's personal fate, but also a deep reflection on the entire martial arts world. Through Duan Yu's story, he conveys an important message to readers: whether it is in the rivers and lakes or in the imperial court, whether in reality or in the fictional world, the brilliance and darkness of human nature coexist. It is only through constant self-reflection and practice that one can find one's true self and achieve inner peace and detachment.
In addition, Jin Yong has also made some adjustments and additions to the fate and stories of other characters in the newly revised version. For example, he gave a more delicate depiction of the love story of Xuzhu and Menggu, making the relationship between the two more sincere and moving; He dug deeper into the mystery of Xiao Feng's life experience, making Xiao Feng's image more plump and three-dimensional. These modifications not only enrich the plot of the story, but also deepen the characterization of the characters, making the whole story more engaging.
In general, Jin Yong's revision in the newly revised version of "Dragon Babu" is an important supplement and improvement to the original work. Through the adjustment of the fate of Duan Yu and other characters, he not only respects the historical archetype, but also deepens the exploration of human nature and thinking about life. These revisions make the newly revised version of "Dragon Babu" more profound and rich while maintaining the charm of the original work, and has become a more perfect martial arts classic.
Mr. Jin Yong's "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" is another classic of martial arts novels, in which the love story of Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min is one of the main lines of the book. The adaptation of TV series often gives a seemingly perfect ending in order to cater to the audience's taste, and Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min finally come together and live a happy life. However, if we delve into the original book and Mr. Jin Yong's later new revisions, it is not difficult to find that their relationship is not indestructible, but full of variables and uncertainties.
In the original book, Zhang Wuji's character is indecisive and often seems hesitant in dealing with feelings. The emotional entanglements between him and Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao Zhao and Yin Li constitute a major highlight of the story. Although Zhang Wuji chose Zhao Min in the end, this choice was not without a price. Zhao Min is witty, decisive, and even a little cunning, and she does not hesitate to use all kinds of means, including deception and betrayal, in order to get Zhang Wuji. This strong contrast in personality has laid hidden dangers for the relationship between the two.
In the newly revised version, Mr. Jin Yong has adjusted some plots and added some foreshadowing, which makes the relationship between Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min more complicated. For example, in the new revision, Zhao Min's family background is further strengthened, and her family is inextricably linked to the imperial court. Zhao Min's father, King Ruyang, was a powerful figure, and his political ambitions and expectations for Zhao Min undoubtedly brought great pressure to the relationship between Zhao Min and Zhang Wuji.
In addition, Zhao Min's historical prototype was the daughter of Chakhan Timur at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and her historical ending was tragic. Her father lost the political battle and was eventually killed, and she herself was forced to become a funeral object, ending her young life. This historical background is cleverly integrated into Zhao Min's fate in the new revision, hinting at her possible tragic ending.
In the new revision, Zhao Min's family is eventually embroiled in infighting in the imperial court, and her father, King Ruyang, loses power in a power struggle, and Zhao Min is implicated as a result. Although Zhang Wuji loved Zhao Min deeply, he could not ignore the crimes and political background of Zhao Min's family. This contradiction and conflict makes the relationship between Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min precarious.
At the same time, the newly revised version also added some plots describing Zhang Wuji's inner struggle. Zhang Wuji felt deep pain and struggle in the face of the crimes of the Zhao Min family. He neither wanted to betray his lover, nor did he want to turn his back on the righteousness in his heart. This inner struggle makes it difficult for Zhang Wuji to choose between Zhao Min and justice.
In addition, the endings of other female characters have been adjusted in the new revised version, making Zhang Wuji's choice more difficult. For example, Zhou Zhiruo has become stronger and more independent in the new revision, she no longer relies entirely on Zhang Wuji, but has chosen her own path. The ending of Xiao Zhao and Yin Li has also changed, and they have each found their own happiness. These changes have undoubtedly increased the difficulty for Zhang Wuji to choose Zhao Min.
In general, the newly revised version of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" has a more in-depth and complex description of the relationship between Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min. By adding foreshadowing and adjusting the plot, Mr. Jin Yong shows the fragility and uncertainty of the relationship between the two. While the TV series gives a seemingly perfect ending, the original book and the newly revised version hint at a possible tragic ending. This kind of tragic ending is not only more in line with the character and fate of the characters, but also more profoundly reveals the complexity of human nature and the impermanence of fate.
In Mr. Jin Yong's "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", the love story between Zhao Min and Zhang Wuji is the core of the emotional entanglement in the book. Zhao Min, as the daughter of King Ruyang of the Yuan Dynasty, her identity and background should have been on the opposite side of Zhang Wuji. However, her deep devotion to Zhang Wuji made her not hesitate to betray her father and family, and the sacrifice and dedication of this feeling are undoubtedly profound.
Zhao Min's ingenuity and resoluteness allowed her to help Zhang Wuji save the day in many crises. Her feelings for Zhang Wuji have gradually changed from curiosity and appreciation to deep love and dependence. For the sake of Zhang Wuji, Zhao Min gave up her status, power, and even the glory of her family, this kind of sacrifice is extremely rare in the martial arts world, and it also shows her firmness and sincerity in her feelings for Zhang Wuji.
However, Zhang Wuji's feelings for Zhao Min are not as clear and firm as her. Zhang Wuji's personality has a natural hesitation and indecision, which makes him often seem vacillating when facing Zhao Min and several other female characters. In the original book, Zhang Wuji has different degrees of emotional entanglements with Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao Zhao and Yin Li, and it always seems difficult to determine who is his true daughter in his heart.
In the afterword of the original book, Mr. Jin Yong even mentioned that Zhang Wuji did not determine that Zhao Min was his true daughter, which undoubtedly added more uncertainty to the relationship between the two. Zhang Wuji's inner world is complex and delicate, and his feelings for Zhao Min are both grateful and dependent, as well as hesitant and confused. He is well aware of the sacrifices Zhao Min has made for him, but at the same time, he can't ignore the complex issues brought about by the family and identity behind her.
Mr. Jin Yong's psychological description of Zhang Wuji in the newly revised version is more delicate, showing his struggle and pain in emotional choices. Deep down in his heart, Zhang Wuji was both moved and puzzled by Zhao Min's betrayal, and he was not sure if he could fully accept a woman who had betrayed her family. At the same time, he is also thinking about whether the relationship between himself and Zhao Min can really transcend all obstacles and achieve a true spiritual fit.
In addition, some plots have been added to the newly revised version, which further strengthens the complexity of Zhang Wuji's affection for Zhao. For example, at some critical moments, Zhang Wuji will unconsciously compare Zhao Min with other female characters, which not only makes his emotional choices more difficult, but also reflects that his feelings for Zhao Min are not as pure and firm as hers.
Zhao Min's affectionate devotion to Zhang Wuji and Zhang Wuji's hesitation constitute a major contradiction in the relationship between the two. Zhao Min's sacrifice and dedication, although it is deeply touching, may not be able to fully respond in Zhang Wuji's heart. This emotional asymmetry makes the relationship between the two full of uncertainties and uncertainties, and also casts a shadow on their future.
In the newly revised version, Mr. Jin Yong made the relationship between Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min more three-dimensional and real by adding details and adjusting the plot. Rather than simply portraying the relationship between the two as a perfect love, he shows the complexity and contradictions involved. This kind of realistic description not only gives readers a deeper understanding of the relationship between the two, but also makes the emotional world of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" richer and more moving.
In Mr. Jin Yong's "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", Zhang Wuji's emotional world is full of twists and turns and contradictions. His emotional entanglements with Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao Zhao and Yin Li constitute an important thread in the story. In the original book, Zhang Wuji finally chose Zhao Min, but in the new revised version, Mr. Jin Yong added some plots to make Zhang Wuji's emotional choices more complex and subtle.
At the end of the story, although Zhang Wuji decided to spend the rest of his life with Zhao Min, he did not officially marry Zhao Min. Behind this decision is his commitment to Zhou Zhiruo and his inner conflict. In the original book, Zhou Zhiruo once asked Zhang Wuji not to marry her, no matter who he chose in the end. Out of respect and gratitude to Zhou Zhiruo, Zhang Wuji agreed to her request.
This decision reflects Zhang Wuji's inner contradictions and struggles. He is well aware of his feelings for Zhao Min, but at the same time, he can't ignore his promise to Zhou Zhiruo. In Zhang Wuji's heart, Zhou Zhiruo is not only his childhood sweetheart, but also his important partner in the process of growing up. Zhou Zhiruo's request, for Zhang Wuji, is a moral responsibility and emotional burden that cannot be refused.
In the newly revised version, Mr. Jin Yong has a more in-depth description of Zhang Wuji's inner world. Zhang Wuji felt deep pain and helplessness in the face of Zhou Zhiruo's request. He knew that his decision would hurt Zhao Min, but he couldn't break his promise either. This inner struggle makes Zhang Wuji's image more three-dimensional and real.
At the same time, Zhang Wuji's decision also reflects his importance and respect for Zhou Zhiruo. In Zhang Wuji's heart, Zhou Zhiruo is not only his friend and partner, but also his benefactor and mentor. Zhou Zhiruo gave Zhang Wuji a lot of help and support during his growth. Zhang Wuji's commitment to Zhou Zhiruo is a kind of gratitude and reward to her.
In addition, Zhang Wuji's decision also reflects his tolerance and generosity. He did not resent or alienate Zhou Zhiruo because of her request, but chose to understand and respect. This kind of tolerance and generosity is an important characteristic of Zhang Wuji's character, and it is also the key to his ability to maintain self and balance in a complex emotional world.
In the newly revised version, although Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min did not officially get married, they still lived together like husband and wife. This state of life not only reflects Zhang Wuji's deep affection for Zhao Min, but also reflects his respect for Zhou Zhiruo's commitment. The relationship between Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min, although not perfect, is more real and moving.
Overall, Zhang Wuji's decision not to marry Zhao Min was an important decision in his emotional choice. This decision not only reflects his inner contradictions and struggles, but also reflects the importance and respect he attaches to Zhou Zhiruo's commitment. In the newly revised version, Mr. Jin Yong has made Zhang Wuji's emotional world richer and more real by adding plots and deepening descriptions. This kind of realistic description not only gives readers a deeper understanding of Zhang Wuji's character and emotions, but also makes the emotional world of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" more profound and moving.
Zhang Wuji, as the protagonist of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", his martial arts talent and cultivation process are an important part of the story. The martial arts he practiced such as Jiuyang Divine Skill, Tai Chi, Qiankun Great Shift, and Sacred Fire Order, each of which had extremely high power and unique cultivation methods. However, with the in-depth cultivation of martial arts, especially the Great Shift of the Universe and the Holy Flame Order, these martial arts may have had some unexpected negative effects on his mind and appearance.
The Great Shift of Qiankun is an extremely advanced internal strength method, which can transfer and appropriate the internal force of others for its own use. The cultivation of this kind of martial arts requires extremely high internal force cultivation and mental control. Although Zhang Wuji was extremely talented, in the process of cultivation, it may be difficult for him to completely control this powerful internal force, which led to the internal force backlashing, which had a certain impact on his mind. This effect can manifest itself in personality swings, emotional instability, and in some cases, may even make him lose self-control.
The Holy Fire Order is an extremely domineering martial art, which is based on the internal force of the fire attribute, and cultivators need to endure great pain and danger. In the process of cultivating the Holy Fire Order, Zhang Wuji may have been eroded by the internal force of the fire attribute, which not only caused damage to his body, but also may have changed his appearance. His skin may become rougher, his complexion may become darker, and he may even have some fire attribute features, such as a flickering fire in his eyes.
The effects of these martial arts on Zhang Wuji's mind and appearance may have changed his personality and appearance to a certain extent, making him more elusive and incomprehensible. This change may make Zhao Min strange and uneasy, and she may find it difficult for her to accept Zhang Wuji, whose personality and appearance have changed. Zhao Min was originally a smart, independent, and assertive woman, and her feelings for Zhang Wuji were based on her understanding and trust in him. However, as Zhang Wuji's personality and appearance change, this understanding and trust may gradually be replaced by suspicion and incomprehension.
In the new revised version, Mr. Jin Yong may hint at the potential reason for Zhao Min's eventual departure by describing the changes that Zhang Wuji has undergone after he practiced martial arts. This change is not just external, but also internal. Zhang Wuji's inner world may have become more complex and contradictory due to the influence of martial arts, and he may have felt confused and lost in his self-identity and emotional choices. This kind of inner struggle and confusion may make Zhao Min unable to understand and accept, and finally choose to leave.
In addition, Zhao Min's departure may also be related to her own growth and changes. In the course of the development of the story, Zhao Min gradually grows from a willful and cunning woman to an independent and strong woman. She may have begun to reflect on her relationship with Zhang Wuji, realizing that what she needs is not just a love that depends on and is relied on, but a partnership that is equal, understanding and respectful. Zhang Wuji's change may have made her realize that their relationship can no longer meet her expectations and requirements for her partner.
Overall, the negative impact of Zhang Wuji's martial arts cultivation on his mind and appearance may have been one of the potential reasons why Zhao Min eventually left him. This influence not only changed Zhang Wuji's personality and appearance, but also changed their relationship and Zhao Min's inner world. In the newly revised version, Mr. Jin Yong shows a complex and true love story through in-depth descriptions of Zhang Wuji's changes and Zhao Min's inner struggles, allowing readers to have a deeper understanding and perception of the characters' personalities, emotions and fates.
