Jin Yong's story is divided into three versions, serial version, triptych version and new revision, the early serial version is created in the form of serialization, it is inevitable that there are plot loopholes, so Jin Yong triplet version fills a lot of loopholes, so why write a new revision later? In my opinion, a large part of the reason is that he wants to open up the relationship between the various works.
For example, in the newly revised version of "The Legend of the Archery Hero", the inheritance of the Eighteen Palms of the Descending Dragon is emphasized, and the original work says: "During the Northern Song Dynasty, Xiao Feng, the leader of the Gang gang, used this to invite the heroes of the world, and very few people could stop him from three moves and two styles. At that time, there were a total of "twenty-eight palms of descending dragons", and later xiao Feng and his righteous brother XuanZhuzi deleted the complicated and simplified, took the essence of the macro, and changed it to the eighteen palms of the descending dragon, and the palm strength was thicker. This palm technique was passed to Hong Qigong's hands, and it was displayed at the top of Mount Hua when discussing swords with Wang Chongyang, Huang Yaoshi and others, and Wang Chongyang and others were all praised. ”

It is not difficult to see that In order to make his story a bit epic, Jin Yong attaches great importance to the word "inheritance", and most of the martial arts in the book can be traced back to the source, so who is huang Yaoshi among the five masters?
The inheritance of martial arts of the first and fifth extremes
Wang Chongyang of the "Middle Divine Power", Duan Zhixing of the "Southern Emperor", Hong Qigong of the "Northern Qi", Ouyang Feng of the "Western Poison", and Huang Yaoshi of the "Eastern Evil" were respected by the world as the Five Masters.
As mentioned earlier, Hong Qigong's martial arts are inherited from Xiao Feng and The False Bamboo Lineage.
And Duan Zhixing's martial arts are naturally inherited from The Predecessor Gaoren of the Duan Clan of Dali.

Among the remaining three, Wang Chongyang was the ancestor of the Quanzhen Sect, and his martial arts were naturally self-created, while the White Camel Mountain martial arts used by Ouyang Feng seemed to be self-created, so the martial arts of the Peach Blossom Island One Pulse used by Huang Yaoshi were naturally also self-created.
In addition, the book mentions that Huang Yaoshi is a person with five elements of gossip and astronomical geography, so it is reasonable for him to be able to create a martial art of Peach Blossom Island, but this article is going to discuss the situation that he has a master, so it is believed that Huang Yaoshi is a person without a teacher, and there is no need to continue reading.
If Huang Yaoshi had to have a master, who would that person be? In fact, looking at his granddaughter's performance when she broke into Shaolin may be able to get some hints.
Second, Guo Xiang broke into Shaolin
It is said that although Yang Guo is a hero, he is also "not shallow", there are many women in the book who have been delayed for a lifetime because of him, and the saying that "once I saw Yang Guo mistakenly for life" is particularly evident in the two women, one is the Gongsun Green Calyx who paid for him, and the other is Guo Xiang, the second miss of Guo.
Since the third time huashan sword discussion that year, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnü retired to the jianghu, and Guo Xiang never saw Yang Guo again, so she went south and north, traveling all over the world just to explore the news of Yang Guo.

Since the colorless Zen master of the Shaolin Sect and Yang Guo were old friends, Guo Xiang broke into Shaolin and wanted to find a colorless inquiry about Yang Guo's whereabouts, and the two had a contest due to a misunderstanding, and in the process, Guo Xiang's move was very interesting.
The original said: "The short sword fell short, and when he saw that the colorless counterattack was an attack, he stretched out his fingers to take his wrist, and was secretly surprised: 'The old monk really got it, under such a sinister sword move, with his bare hands, he could actually rush to attack.'" Seeing his finger reach the front door, the short sword shook a few times, so that it was actually a trick in the dog stick method, 'evil dog blocking the way', which is a 'seal' word skill. ”
Here Guo Xiang presented the dog stick method in the form of a sword method, so that the colorless Zen master did not see what kind of move she made, and the following text is indeed like this: "In fact, there is no such sword technique in the world, she just secretly learned a dog fighting stick method, used in the sword move, only because the dog fighting stick method is too mysterious, although she makes it plausible, but also shocks a famous Shaolin monk full of doubts." ”

What does this mean? The martial arts used by Huang Yaoshi are most likely transformed from other martial arts, such as his most representative finger magic, which is very similar to the martial arts of a predecessor.
Third, the inheritance of magic
What kind of martial art is magic? In fact, the power of the magic power used by Huang Yaoshi at different stages was not the same.
For example, in the early years, his magic finger was to hurt people with stones, and the original said: "I dug a small hole in the ground, let Huang Laoevil pick up the stone bullet first, he took nine in his hand, and we compared it." His secret weapon kung fu is unique in the world, 'finger magic' is famous in the world, he only has the ability to take accuracy far better than me, and he will be able to gain the upper hand when playing with stone bullets. ”
By the end of "Eagle Hero", his magic powers no longer need to use the power of stones.
The original said: "Halfway through the 'Eclipsed Soul Palm', Huang Yaoshi's 'Falling Ying Divine Sword Palm Technique' was dwarfed, he saw Yin Kexi rushing like an arrow, thinking that his palm strength was not enough to resist it, stretched out his finger, snorted softly, and a thin force shot out, and Dengshi dissolved the palm force that Yang Guo had clapped." ”
At this moment, he could directly shoot out the strength, almost as powerful as the Dali Duan Clan's One Yang Finger and Six-Pulse Excalibur.
The virtual bamboo in "Tianlong Babu" also used a similar move, that is, throwing a pine ball.
(Fictional Bamboo Stills)
The original said: "The thumb of the right hand of the virtual bamboo is loose, and the pine ball on the ring finger bounces off... At that time, the true qi in the palm of the bamboo was rushing, and with both hands raised, twelve pine balls were thrown at the same time, snapping a few times, and four people turned over and fell. The dwarf didn't throw the ball and shouted, 'My mother! 'Drop your double axe and roll down the hill.' The twelve loose balls of the void bamboo shot out quickly and fiercely, and the sound reached the ball, and the other four people had no time to dodge. After throwing the pine ball, he was afraid of breaking the girl, so he hugged her waist and gently landed on the ground, only to see that the snow was red, and the blood gushed out of the four people, and he couldn't help but be stunned. ”
Isn't the move of the loose ball of the virtual bamboo the same as that of the magic finger? It's just that the things that pop up are different, at least from the principle point of view, the two are the same way.
Again, it is also possible that Huang Yaoshi has no master, but if he must have a master, judging from Guo Xiang's deeds and the moves used by the virtual bamboo, it is very likely that his master is a virtual bamboo who has achieved martial arts in his later years.
