Yes, but neither the author nor the readers have paid enough attention to the factor of "martial arts". For example, Liang Yusheng, the pioneer of overseas new martial arts novels, has repeatedly said that martial arts novels "would rather have no martial arts than be chivalrous", and his contempt for martial arts is obvious. Another famous person, Gu Long, is famous for not describing the martial arts fighting moves in detail. He publicly stated that "Wushu is used to kill people, not to perform" and thought that he had discovered a truth.
Wushu itself is a kind of culture and a unique cultural form of the Chinese nation. The reason why martial arts novels are warmly welcomed only by Chinese people, but difficult to be accepted by foreigners is that the two cultural elements of martial arts novels are so unique and unique to China culture, but foreigners can't find the corresponding concepts. So it is true that foreigners simply translate Wushu into "China Kung Fu".
Let's make a long story short. Kung Fu in Jin Yong's novels is a completely different kind of "China Kung Fu". That is to say, the martial arts in Jin Yong's novels are useless, but you can watch them without practicing them. This needs no explanation. Novels are not martial arts textbooks. If you try to write martial arts novels as a failed student in Pingjiang, it is obviously out of date and violates the aesthetic law of martial arts novels. Of course, Jin Yong wouldn't do that. He developed a martial arts textbook. That is the "culture" of martial arts and the singing of martial arts dramas, which are not only very lively, but also colorful and dizzying, and worthy of repeated taste.
"Literariness" means artistry, that is, beautification and elegance. Its methods and approaches are to "transform" the rich categories and forms of China culture and art into martial arts, such as poetry, ci, fu, piano, chess, books, paintings and music. These cultural and artistic forms that were not touched by martial arts fighting were brought by Jin Yong one by one.
For example,> in the book, I wrote an ancient style of Li Bai << chivalrous >>, which contains a set of profound martial arts secrets. Can they understand? Or "Musical Martial Arts", as early as Jin Yong's first novel & gt, the protagonist Chen Jialuo realized a set of "experts to solve the cow's paw". When dealing with Zhang Shi, who is skilled in martial arts, he is destined to blow & gt The martial arts in Jin Yong's novels are not only related to traditional art forms, but also to traditional academic forms, academic contents and academic thoughts.
Overseas Chinese choose Jin Yong's novels as China cultural textbooks for their children's education, because the descriptions of martial arts in Jin Yong's novels contain rich cultural knowledge and certain academic ideas, such as Tai Chi, Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Eight Diagrams, Buddhist Scriptures, Taoist Scriptures and allusions. These are all Jin Yong's "transformation" into his original martial arts.
For example, Tai Ji Chuan and Tai Chi Sword described in the book & gt, if they don't know the truth of "Tai Chi circling" and "making sure that they can run through like the Yangtze River", they will never appreciate the beauty of Zhang Sanfeng's martial arts thought.
Speaking of footwork, the best footwork in Jin Yong's novels is probably & gt Duan Yu accidentally learned a set of "Lingbo micro-step" footwork. The practical beauty of this kind of footwork has been written wonderfully in the book, but its aesthetic beauty and academic beauty only need us to know the doorway. The beauty of the surface is because the name of this footwork originated from an article written by Cao Zhi, a genius in the Three Kingdoms period. & lt Luoshenfu >>, describes the specific situation of the goddess of waterinfo "Lingbo micro-step" on the water.
There are many such examples. For example, in<'s famous "eighteen palms of descending dragons", the words "Kang Long has regrets", "Don't use hidden dragons" and "Fight with dragons in the wild" all originated from the Book of Changes. The divination of the word.
Speaking of "doorways", we will naturally think of the essence of China's ancient philosophy, which is called "Tao gives birth to one, two, three and everything". What does this mean? That is to say, everything in the world has different forms and techniques. However, all the rivers in 1999 merged into the ocean, which was born of the Tao, so the principle of everything and the virtue of everything belong to the Tao of everything.
Jin Yong paid attention to martial arts from the first book. If you want to write martial arts in a rich and unique way, reasonable, intriguing and inspiring, you must have Ming Dow. For example. & gt As soon as Chen Jialuo appeared, he used a set of unprecedented martial arts called "Hundred Flowers Wrong Boxing". This kind of boxing is unique in that it integrates the existing boxing methods in the world, such as Changquan, Tai Ji Chuan and Bagua Boxing. It is impossible to prevent it, so it can be called "Hundred Flowers Wrong Boxing", and the word "wrong" is difficult.
& lt& lt Eternal Dragon Slayer >> Zhang Sanfeng, the granddaddy of Wutangmen, taught Taiji Sword in front of his opponent. Everyone thought it was incomprehensible, and only Zhang Wuji could understand it.
As mentioned above, things carry the Tao with reason, and people inherit the Tao with virtue. The description of martial arts in Jin Yong's novels is "reasonable", which is bound to be reflected in the principle of things and the virtue of people.
It should be noted that the "characterization of martial arts" in Jin Yong's novels is far from being as simple as we understand or imagine. For example, stupid people have stupid kung fu, capable people have clever kung fu, traitors have treacherous kung fu, and bad people "practice the true scriptures backwards." If so, it is not a real representation, but only typology. This understanding only involves one aspect of "martial arts" in Jin Yong's novels.
Take Guo Jing as an example, this character is not very clever, so the author asked him to practice a simple "stupid kung fu", that is, "eighteen palms of dragons"
For example,> Yang Guo is much smarter than Guo Jing, but also lively, extreme and slick, so his life course and the process of learning and practicing martial arts are completely different from Guo Jing's.
Similarly, < < the duke of mount deer >; Wei Xiaobao is also "as powerful as a man", so I won't give examples one by one. When I mentioned Wei Xiaobao, I got two sentences, namely:
The chivalrous man retired,
A talented little treasure is called Supreme.
These two sentences can be said to be the summary of Jin Yong's novels.
