After the serial of 1972, Duke Lushan announced that he would not write martial arts novels.

Sword of the yue maiden: Late Spring and Autumn Period (about 485-473 BC).

It is mentioned in the book that after the sword was awarded-"Three years later, Gou Jian set out to attack Wu ...". Then the first revenge war between Yue State and Wu should be in 482 BC, so we can know that it should be around 485 BC.

Later, Wu was attacked several times and was finally destroyed; In 473 BC, Fu Cha, the king of Wu, committed suicide.

Tianlong Babu: five years in Yuan You, northern Song Zhezong-nine years in Yuan You/year in Shao Shengyuan (A.D. 1090-1094).

The whole story of Tian Ba Long Bu was very clear, but there are several bugs in the book, which easily make researchers lose their way.

"Tian Ba Long Bu" began in the God Blessed Year of Dali (the sixth chapter says "Baoding Emperor reigned for eleven years, changed to three yuan, called Baoding, Jian 'an and God Blessed Year ..."), but the specific year is still unclear. This is because historians only know that the reign of Emperor Baoding was from the fifth year of Song Yuanfeng to the year of Shao Shengyuan, and there is no evidence to prove that Baoding, Jian 'an and Tianyou each occupied several years. So we can only find another time clue-fortunately, Qiao Feng's time gave us a clear time coordinate for Wang Can.

In the fifteenth chapter of this book, Qiao Feng wrote that he had been in charge of the Beggars' Sect for eight years ... Qiao Feng clearly remembered that it was the day when he took over as the leader of the Beggars' Sect ... ",so we can see that Qiao Feng was the leader of Yuanfeng in the sixth year (A.D. 1083). Based on this calculation, Shang Lue in Xinglin was in Yuan You, northern Song Zhezong in the sixth year (A.D. 109 1). It's March and April, and the beginning of the book should be autumn and winter last year (the scene of Nianhua Temple is yellow leaves falling, which should be autumn and winter considering the warmer climate in Dali. It took eighteen days from the beginning to the robbery of Duan Yu, and then "I have been out of Dali for more than ten days ... for more than twenty days ... this day finally came to Suzhou City ... it was the weather in March".

As for the ending, the historical events that can be referenced in the book are the death of the Empress Dowager and the political reform of various schools. It happened in the ninth year of Zongyuanyou/Shaoshengyuan (AD 1094), and then February and March at most ("After so many months, the four lobbyists are not bothered at all ..."), and when it comes to the Yellow River, it is obviously not the freezing season. Xiao Feng committed suicide, and the book is over. Therefore, the "Eight Dragons" ended in the 9th year of Yuanyou/Shaoshengyuan (A.D. 1094).

Only in this way, there are two contradictions in time in the book (historical contradictions, such as the order and time of Dali's succession to the throne, are ignored, and this is the contradiction in time). One is the birthday of the little girl Zhong Ling. For the first time, it was written that Zhong Ling was "sixteen years old", but for the second time and the ninth time, it was written that Zhong Ling was born on "the ugly day of the fifth day of December", so we can know that Zhong Ling was born in the second year of Yuanfeng in North Song Shenzong (A.D. 1079), and the book was only 1 1 year old. What about you? Duan Yu said,' I am three years older than you. ... Duan Yu cut in and said,' Well, you are eighteen, one year younger than me. ), but in the forty-eighth chapter, it is said that Duan Yu was born on "November 23rd, the second year of Baoding, Dali", namely 1083, and Shu was 7 years old. Sweating again ...

I don't know why Mr. Jin Yong wrote all his birthdays so clearly, but he didn't calculate the right year. ...

Legend of the condor heroes: the fifth year of Qing Yuan in Ningzong, Southern Song Dynasty-the fourteenth year of Jiading (A.D.199-1221).

At the beginning, Zhang Shiwu explicitly mentioned: "... Guangzong was passed down to today's Qingyuan Emperor, who sat in Longting in Lin 'an for five years ..." So the story began in the fifth year of Qing Dynasty in Ningzong, Southern Song Dynasty (A.D. 1 199), and Guo Jing Yang Kang was born in 1200.

This book ends with the death of Genghis Khan, which happened in the third year of Li Zongbaoqing in the Southern Song Dynasty (AD 1227). But look at the time flow of The Legend of the Condor Heroes-18-year-old Guo Jing Yanyu Building met, and it took only two or three years to finish the book (... this search was half a year, last autumn came, and winter came back ... and it was more than a month ... After ten days of military travel, they had arrived at the gates of Samarkand .. so they lived in a stone house. Although how many years have passed is not very certain, according to the following research on the condor heroes (Yang Guo was born in 12 19, and Yang Guo was still a baby at the end of the legend of condor heroes), it can be seen that there will not be much error in two or three years, and at this time it is 1200+ 18+ at most.

Condor Heroes: Five Years/Six Years —— Li Zongkai's Celebration Year in Southern Song Dynasty (1232/1233-1259)

The starting time of The Condor Heroes can be inferred from the age of Yang Guo: Yang Guo was a "13-year-old boy" when he appeared in front of the cave; According to the relevant plot in Legend of the Condor Heroes, Mu Nianci was conceived on Tiezhangfeng in the year of Yanyulou, that is, 12 18. When she was pregnant in October, Yang Guo should have been born in 12 19. Therefore, at the end of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, Yang Guo was about 2 years old when Guo and Huang met Mu and Yang. The condor heroes should start with1219+13/14 =1232/1233.

The year when The Condor Heroes ended was the year when fenglingdu met Li Zongkai in Qingyuan (1259), and Guo Xiang 16 years old. In the same year, Yang Guo shot Mungo with a slungshot (this is also consistent with the fact that Mungo died in July 1259, although the location and cause of death are purely fictitious), and Huashan sword discussion was also held shortly thereafter, in the same year. So the condor heroes ended in AD 1259.

By the way, Guo Jing, who is guarding Xiangyang at this time, is 59 years old. ...

Eternal Dragon Slayer: Three or four years of Li Zong in the Southern Song Dynasty-eighteen years of Yuan Shundi (A.D.1262/1263-1358).

When Guo Xiang first met Zhang, he was "sixteen or seventeen years old", and when Zhang Sanfeng was ninety years old in Zhiyuan two years (A.D. 1336), it can be inferred that the novel should have started in A.D. 1262/ 1263, that is, in the Southern Song Dynasty.

In addition, it is clearly mentioned at the beginning that "Guo Xiang ... has not heard from them for three years ... so he told his parents that he would come out to travel, but he was actually asking about Yang Guo ... From north to south, from east to west, he almost traveled all over the Central Plains ...", so Guo Xiang should go to Shaolin three or four years after Huashan. According to the date of the condor heroes, that is, three or four years after 1259, it is 1262/ 1263.

It can be seen from the above that "The Dragon Slayer by Eternal Adversity" began at 1262/ 1263.

There are two channels about the end time. First, according to historical events, the historical event that can be referenced at the end of The Song of Eternal Sorrow Slaughter the Dragon is the death of Han, and the historical story Han was killed in the eleventh year (A.D. 135 1), which is obviously inconsistent with the time flow in the book. Therefore, it is not feasible to calibrate with historical events, and it needs to be investigated from another channel-this is the era of Zhang Wuji.

Although the book Eternal Dragon Slayer has a clear historical background, other specific dates are not clear except Zhang Sanfeng's date and historical calendar. This requires a calculation channel-the age correspondence between Zhang Wuji and Zhang Sanfeng is a reference standard. At the end of the book, we will calculate Zhang Sanfeng's age at that time by investigating Wuji's age, and get the end time of "Eternal Dragon Slayer" from the corresponding relationship between Zhang Sanfeng's age and historical age.

We know that Zhang Sanfeng was 90 years old in the year of 1336, and his birthday was the ninth day of April. This year, Zhang met, Xie Xun appeared, and Xiange went north. When Zhang Sanfeng was 100 years old, that is, at 9: 00 on April 1346, Zhang Wuji was "ten years old" according to the book. But has he just turned 10 or is he about to turn 1 1 0 (this involves later dating)?

This involves Zhang Wuji's date of birth, which is not clear in the book. However, we can still see that Yin Susu became pregnant shortly after landing on the island-"Suddenly for several months, one day ... Zhang Cuishan was overjoyed and cried," Do you have children? " ..... "-so it should still be in 1336. As can be seen from the following paragraph, it will not be later than autumn at the latest.

"The weather is changing, and the nights are getting shorter and longer. Later, only two hours a day was daytime, and the climate was extremely cold. Yin Susu felt very tired and lazy after pregnancy, but all the cooking and sewing were still very difficult. That night, she will be pregnant in October ... "From this passage, it is impossible to accurately determine the delivery time, but it can be roughly inferred that it should be in late winter or the following spring, that is, Zhang Wuji's birthday is in late winter or early spring.

When Mowgli left the island, it was also winter ("... when the night is the longest every year, the north wind is always blowing, and dozens of people are around the clock ... maybe you can go back to Middle-earth ..."), then when Zhang Sanfeng 100 was born in April/346, Zhang Wuji should be just ten years old (here it should be calculated in nominal age, that is, after birth).

Then I mentioned age and time several times.

"There is no quiet in the valley, and the years are fleeting. In more than two years, Zhang Wuji 14 years old. "

"He has lived in this snowy valley for more than five years and has grown from a child to a tall young man."

But what is really valuable for dating is Zhang Wuji's conversation when he came out of the valley and met a spider when he was a child: "... how old are you?" Zhang Wuji said,' Twenty-one years old.' ……"

After that, Mowgli's age was not stated, so it is very important to confirm the specific date and year at this time. Unfortunately, it happened to be winter ("The next day, I walked more than a hundred miles to the west, and it was already noon, and the sun was shining, although it was the middle of winter, it was also hot ..."). It is not clear whether Zhang Wuji's "twenty-one-year-old" just finished his birthday or approached his next birthday. However, judging from the length of my experience (I was over 65,438+04 years old in Butterfly Valley, and spent the New Year at Zhu Changling's home after going to the western regions, which should be counted as 65,438+05 years, and spent more than 5 years in the valley), the author prefers that I just finished my 265,438+0 birthday at this time, so I will be 265,438+0 years old this year. A few months later, on August 15, the Butterfly Valley got together, and Wuji was still 2 1 year old.

Last March 15th, Zhang Hezhou's wedding. In the same year, a few months later, it was the climax of this book: Duanyang lion slaughter conference, the death of Han, and the end of this book. Since it was September 9 after Duanyang, that one must be twenty-two years old.

So at the end of "Eternal Dragon Slayer", Wuji was 22 years old. According to the age correspondence between Zhang Wuji and Zhang Sanfeng, Zhang Sanfeng should be 1 12 years old, so it should be 1358.

Lian Cheng Ji: Early Ming Dynasty

Argument 1: The official names in the book, such as "magistrate and county magistrate", and the establishment of "Jingzhou Prefecture and Jiangling County" were all in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Argument 2: When Ding Dian recalled what Hua Shuang said, he mentioned that in the third year of his reign, Wei Bing attacked Jiangling and killed Yuan Di. But where is his accumulated wealth, but no one knows ... For hundreds of years, this secret has never been uncovered ... "Emperor Liang Yuan died in 554 AD. Since he said" hundreds of years later ",it should not be later than 1554 AD-its fashion was in the middle of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, the historical background of Liancheng should be Ming rather than Qing, probably in the early Ming Dynasty, not later than the middle Ming Dynasty.

The legendary swordsman: Middle Ming Dynasty (AD 1500 years later)

Argument 1: In the book, Zu mentioned "yuan porcelain" when commenting on wine vessels. People in the current dynasty should not use this tone to describe things in the current dynasty, so we can see that the background of "the legendary swordsman" that night was in the Yuan Dynasty, in the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty.

Argument 2: The establishment of official positions, place names and county governments mentioned in this article is unique in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Argument 3: There is a saying in Duke of Lushan that "... there was Ling Huchong in the former dynasty ...", which was undoubtedly before the Qing Dynasty.

According to the first three accounts, the legendary swordsman happened in the Ming Dynasty.

Argument 4: According to the analysis of Huashan School's teacher in the article "A Study on Chronology of the legendary swordsman" by Sanjie of Yangtze River, Mu Renqing is about a disciple of Ling Huchong. The legendary swordsman occurred in the middle of the Ming Dynasty about 1500.

Argument 5: It is mentioned in the article that "in fact, more than 100 years ago, the real name of this sect was called Five Poisons, and its founders and important figures were Miao people in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Hunan ..." At that time, Five Poisons was called Five Immortals, but it took a generation or two to change its name. In addition, from the perspective of the relationship between people, it is more appropriate to regard Lan Fenghuang's disciples or the next generation, which is roughly commensurate with Mu Renqing's disciples.

Argument 6: It is mentioned in the article that "Emei has been established for hundreds of years ...", at least 200 years after the establishment of Guo Xiang. Emei was founded in Guo Xiang after middle age, as early as 1500.

From the above three articles, it can be roughly determined that the time background of the legendary swordsman should be in the middle of the Ming Dynasty 1500 years later.

Sword stained with royal blood: the sixth year of Chongzhen in Ming Dynasty-the first year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1633-1644).

The starting and ending time of the sword stained with royal blood is relatively certain.

The book began in the sixth year of Chongzhen and ended in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen/the first year of Shunzhi. Yan Li committed suicide after the king was defeated.

Chivalry: Late Ming and Early Qing Dynasty (65438+1930s-1950s)

Argument 1: Shi once mentioned "... but Zhang Sanfeng was a great master of Wulin for hundreds of years ...", that was at least 200-300 years after "The Dragon Slayer with Eternal Hand"-that was in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.

Argument 2: The place names in the book are owned by Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Argument 3: According to the textual research of "White Horse Whistling in the West Wind" below, the Escort Agency and its party began in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties and flourished in Kanggan. Then, since the "Chivalrous Man" mentioned the escort agency ("Yuzhou Xishu Escort Agency" and so on. ), it should have happened in the late Ming dynasty at the earliest.

Therefore, knight riding should take place in the late Ming or Qing Dynasty.

Argument 4: The book mentions the main branch of a specific era: "... I saw the words' Nie Jiaquan in Tongzhou, Hebei' written on it. When I opened the book, the first line was shocking, that is,' On the second day of May in Gengshen, Nie Zongtai raped and killed two people in Haojiazhuang, Cangzhou, leaving a book for the thief in Hei Hu Village', and the second line read:' On October 17th in Gengshen, Nie Zongfeng was in Jinan. ……"

The number of cadres and branches rotates every sixty years, from which we can roughly estimate the age at that time. In the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty, there were 1, 620, 1, 680, 1, 740, 1, 800, 1, 860, 1, 920 ... Therefore, the years of 1620, 1680, 1740 and 1800 are similar (the age in the novel is ten to thirty years later than the year of "Geng Shen", so 1860 is also later).

Thirty years before and after the year of Gengshen, Shaolin masters had wonderful truths first, and then popularized the law. Therefore, it can be seen that it must not be the Kangxi period (the Shaolin monk in the Duke of Lushan was unlucky, honest and clean, and was from China), nor the Qianlong period (the Shaolin master in the legend of flying fox was a great generation, and there were also great generations in South Shaolin in the sword book at the same time). According to the generations of Shaolin in Central and South China recorded in Shu Jian, we can know that north shaolin was also a generation of heaven, earth and yuan during the Qianlong period. Even in Jiaqing 1800, the problem of generations could not be avoided (Miao was the first to go to the island, so he took charge of Shaolin as early as 20 or 30 years before "Gengshen", but in 1770.

Therefore, Chivalrous Man took place in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties 163X year-165x year (1620+10 ~30 years), at the latest; Although this is inconsistent with the prosperity of the escort agency industry for some time, it can only be done.

White Horse Whistling West Wind: Early Qing Dynasty

Argument 1: It is clearly written in the book that it has been "more than one thousand years" since Gaochang was destroyed (Gao Chang's Qu family was killed in Jingming, Northern Wei Dynasty for three years /50 1 year, and Gengzi and Zhenguan in Tang Dynasty for fourteen years /640 year), and the earliest time is 1640 year, that is, Shunzhi.

Argument 2: Shanxi Escort Agency appeared in the book ("... Jinwei Escort Agency was established in Taigu County, Shanxi Province ..."). According to the research of Juxian Wei's History of Shanxi Bank, Escort Agency began in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, flourished in Kanggan, and was first founded by Shanxi people. According to the situation described in the book, the escort agency industry has been quite prosperous, at least after the founding of the Qing Dynasty.

Judging from the above statement, the historical background of "White Horse Whistling in the West Wind" was as early as the Shunzhi period in the early Qing Dynasty, but in fact it most likely happened during the Kang Yong dry period, just like the following books.

Yuanyang Dao: Mid-early Qing Dynasty

Argument 1: Make it clear that it was the Qing Dynasty.

Argument 2: China 18 province is mentioned in the article, so the age should be after Shunzhi dynasty and before Guangxu dynasty.

Argument 3: Civil anti-Qing activities gradually declined from the Qianlong Dynasty, so, for example, Xiao Banhe's father and uncle died in a bloody battle with Manchu, and Xiao Banhe was willing to be a eunuch and plot to assassinate him. These actions occurred in the early Qing Dynasty. In addition, the move mentioned in the article that the emperor sent spies to search for Wulin treasures when he was doing Baylor can't be said to be conclusive, but it is also easy to remind people of Grandpa Yongzheng. ...

The duke of mount deer: 8th year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty-26th year of Kangxi (A.D. 1669-1687).

Although Duke Lushan did not explicitly mention the year and month, the whole book is based on historical events, so it is based on historical facts.

At the beginning of the book, it is extremely difficult to determine when Chen Jinnan saved several famous people, so he thinks it happened at the same time as the second time. Wei Xiaobao's second adventure took place a few months before Ao Bai was captured (it took a while to go to Beijing at first, and then "Wei Xiaobao and Zi Xuan fought for two months ...", and then they learned kindness and compassion, and "... this kind of amateur research lasted for two or three months ..."). In history, the invasion of Ao Bai took place in May of the eighth year of Kangxi, so we saved something and stopped crossing the new year. Let's just say that the book began in the early eighth year of Kangxi.

The landmark historical event at the end was naturally the signing of the Treaty of Nebuchadnezzar Chu, which took place in the 26th year of Kangxi. The book ended in seclusion, only a few months before the signing of the agreement (about a month after returning to Beijing from Nebuchadnezzar Chu, Mao was arrested and the gift was changed to "Zi", and another "Feng Xifan" left Beijing for more than ten days and then decided to live in seclusion on the boat on the way), so he was still in the 26th year of Kangxi. However, in this way, at this time, our Sir Wei's age ... the beginning of the book is "twelve or thirteen years old", plus eighteen years-already a man with three children. ...

Records of the enmity and enmity of the sword: June, 18th-24th year of Qing Qianlong (A.D. 1753-1759).

At the beginning, it was clearly pointed out that it was "June of the eighteenth year of Qing Qianlong ...".

After that, the main plot took place within two years, starting from Li Kexiu's appointment to Zhejiang in the 23rd year of Qianlong, crossing the Yellow River in September, getting married in the early winter, and turning to Heishuiying (which coincided with the conquest of Uighur by Shizi Zhao Hui in the 23rd to 24th year of Qianlong), and the book ended in the same year.

Legend of the Flying Fox: 31 to 34 years of Qingganlong (A.D. 1766-1769)

At the beginning of the book, Pei Hu is a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, and Hu Miao fought a duel "thirteen years ago". According to the textual research of Flying Fox in the Snow Mountain below, the duel between Miao Renfeng and Hu Yidao and the birth of Pei Hu took place in the twelfth year of Qianlong (A.D. 1753), followed by the eighteenth and thirteenth years of Qianlong (A.D. 1766). Therefore, Pei Hu should be 13 years old, not 14 years old (obviously it is not the twelfth lunar month, and Pei Hu has not yet reached 14 birthday).

At the end of the book, it is mentioned that "... ten years ago, Emperor Qianlong visited Hangzhou incognito, was captured by the Honghua Club, and was imprisoned at the top of Pagoda of Six Harmonies ..." It is also said that "... the tenth anniversary of Princess Xiangxiang's death ..." From the historical background of The Sword Book, it should be the thirty-fourth year of Qing Qianlong (A.D. 1769).

In this way, at the end of the book, Hu Feicai was 16 years old. The inn ... read the complicated emotional description in the book and thought he was in his early twenties. Mentally speaking, this guy is more precocious than Sir Wei. ...

Flying Fox on Snow Mountain: March 15th in the 45th year of Qing Qianlong (A.D. 1780).

The whole story of this flying fox on a snowy mountain should be the most unmistakable in Jin Yong's martial arts novels: the whole novel took place on the day of "………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………".

Miao Renfeng and Hu Yidao duel, Pei Hu was born "twenty-seven years ago", that is, in the twelfth year of Qianlong (AD 1753).
