Teach but do not know its method, learn but do not know its way. ------------------
"The Legend of the Archery Hero" is one of the proud works of Jin Yong's novels, which has swept the Chinese-speaking regions of the world for decades, and has been remade countless times into film and television dramas, which are well known to more people.
As an important figure in Jin Yong's martial arts novels, Guo Jing's martial arts are undoubtedly highly powerful, and he successfully integrated the three major Martial Arts of "Descending Dragon Eighteen Palms", "Nine Yin True Scriptures" and "Left and Right Mutual Fighting", and was called "the first warrior in the world" by Wulin Zun, and his power was evident.
However, no one is born a master of the world, and it takes continuous hard cultivation to achieve something, which is exactly the plot that Mr. Jin Yong focuses on portraying in the novel.
So, who taught Guo Jing's martial arts? The person who can cultivate Guo Jing into a top master must not be ordinary! Today, let's take a look at how Guo Jing became a martial arts master.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="26" > the teaching of the seven monsters of Jiangnan</h1>
Guo Jing was able to get the teaching of the Seven Monsters, but also thanks to a story between the Seven Monsters and Qiu Zhiji. At that time, the two sides confronted each other for various reasons, but because both sides were highly skilled in martial arts, the scene was very chaotic.
After a fierce battle, both sides were seriously injured, so they told each other the reason for their fight, which made them understand that everything was a misunderstanding.
So both sides decided to decide the winner in another way, that is, both sides saved one person, the seven monsters saved Li Ping, and Qiu Chuji saved the weak, and waited until both of them gave birth to a child, and then cultivated each other, and when the children were eighteen years old, they would compete again to decide the victory or defeat. The story is wonderful and complex, and it is recommended that interested readers still go to the original book.
And Li Ping, who was rescued by the seven monsters here, gave birth to a child, which was Guo Jing.
When Guo Jing grew up a little, after the age of twelve, the seven monsters began to teach Guo Jing martial arts. Because there were seven people in the Seven Monsters, and they all wanted to teach Guo Jing their martial arts, so that in the future, Guo Jing would have the strength to fight against Qiu Zhiji's apprentices. This led to the problem that Guo Jing would learn the martial arts of seven people in six years.
Some people may say that Guo Jing will not be a martial arts master in the future? That qualification must be very good, and learning seven martial arts in six years should not be a hardship.
Indeed, Guo Jing's qualifications are certainly not bad, but the problem is that the martial arts of the Seven Monsters have not been systematically sorted out, but all of them have been taught to Guo Jing, and he has not been taught how to integrate them, so this also leads to Guo Jing not being able to fully master these martial arts during this time, and the martial arts are not yet strong.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="14" > Hong Qigong and Guo Jing</h1>
Later, Guo Jing met Hong Qigong, the leader of the Gang of Servants, a very brilliant and famous character in martial arts novels, and his stunt was also the stunt of the Gang, that is, the "Eighteen Palms of the Descending Dragon" of Wei Zhen Wulin. By chance, Hong Qigong decided to teach Guo Jing the Eighteen Palms of the Descending Dragon.
So how much time did Guo Jing spend to learn this "Descending Dragon Eighteen Palms"? Just one month. That's right, a month. Of course, there are various reasons for this, and it is obvious that the "Eighteen Palms of the Descending Dragon" were handed down by the Gang after many years of accumulation and collation.
The knowledge collation in it must be very detailed, and it can be said that the details are different for each palm, which allows Guo Jing to learn the "Eighteen Palms of the Descending Dragon" in just one month.
This is also in strong contrast with the results of Guo Jing's study of the martial arts of the Seven Monsters, some people say that it is "teaching according to aptitude", but in fact, Ma Yudao's sentence has already pointed out the truth of the matter, that is, "teaching but not knowing its method, learning without knowing its way".
Yes, the answer is very simple, that is, before Guo Jing learned the knowledge of the seven monsters was too messy, the seven monsters were not systematically sorted out, resulting in Guo Jing's learning is to swallow dates, so there is no effect for many years.
When Guo Jing studied with Hong Qigong, he was actually learning from the entire Gang of Cai, using the resources accumulated over the years, so he was able to quickly understand it. This also tells us a truth, that is, we must pay attention to methods in learning, and we must learn to systematically summarize and sort out, so that we can do things with half the effort, otherwise it will be half the work.
However, the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan are not useless, but the method they choose to teach is not suitable for Guo Jing, but they still teach Guo Jing a lot of principles for dealing with the world, as well as the great righteousness of the nation, which makes Guo Jing always be a kind-hearted person no matter how strong his martial arts are in the future.
epilogue:
In the end, I still have to admire the depth of Mr. Jin Yong's penmanship, which can tell us such a wonderful story. You must know that the contest between Guo Jing and Yang Kang is precisely to allude to the "jing kang change" of the Song Dynasty that year, so that they will not forget the national shame and one day be able to avenge the snow and hatred.
