Mr. Jin Yong has always been known as a rich historical culture. The US best-selling novel is now translated by the English version of "Jin Yong Selected". The translator is limited, and the translation is blunt, and the original is the original.
Mr. Jin Yong is a scholar, exactly, should be known as the professor of investigation, but it has been known for its more than a dozen best-selling novels in China. His novel, specializing in the history of China's world-famous fighting. Like the West, Chinese fighters use a variety of weapons, although the weapons used by Westerners are not the same. However, it can be seen from the novels of the professor: When not using the weapon, China's fighters are mainly with palms, not with fists. Don't think that this is just the different details. In fact, this is a deep difference, understanding this, is our premise of our best-selling novels.
According to the understanding of modern Westerners, the more hard and sharp things, the more you can hurt, so in fighting, your fist is more superior to the palm. Using weapons, the more hard the texture, the more the surface is, the better. The fighters described by Professor are not only in the handsome, but also seem to be higher than the fighters, the more do not pay attention to whether the weapons used are sharp, even simply give up the weapons. Western readers who have never read this type of novel have been difficult to understand. In fact, Chinese fighters do not value the opponents through our usual physical injury. This involves a concept of China's unique throughout such novels: internal force. Only translating this word only from the literal, there is not much help to the understanding of Western readers. If you must find a class ratio that Westerners feel easy to understand, with the same magical effect, and have a similar long history, that is, magic. But they are actually completely different. The internal force has the following characteristics:
1. Internal power practice usually has a certain requirement for the physiological status of the practitioner. This is not to say that people are unable to practice, but in general, they are not easy to achieve more success. This is easier to understand, because this is a fight after all. On the other hand, higher IQ is often helpful for practicing, but not always. Sometimes IQ is lower, such as the male protagonist in "Shooting Heroes" and "Herbal". The requirements for physiological conditions are sometimes extremely extremely extreme, such as the need for castration surgery ("Swordsman"), or the two hemispheres of the brain (both hands fighting each other) ("Shooting").
2. It is very difficult to master the internal force by self-study, if it is not impossible. There is usually a teacher to teach, but we will often find that the effect of learning from the ancient circles is better than the teacher asking for contemporary teachers. Unfortunately, such a book is hard to get, and usually will not flow for a long time. A very famous scripture in an era, there is no one in another era, obviously lost. However, there are also exceptions, for example, "Single Jiu Jian" appeared in the Song Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty and was reopened by people, but it seems to be very different from the Song Dynasty, suspected of being named.
3. To achieve a high level, there must be some special auxiliary means. Usually, by taking special foods (so too much), or with some auxiliary instruments, such as the function similar to the refrigerator ("God carving", but no power consumption). These means are generally considered to be a big risk, but from the actual effect, there is very little example of failure.
4. Internal force like substances or heat, sometimes or even non-touchless delivery. This transmission can be roughly divided into three categories, the first is an aggressive, that is, by releasing internal strength hurting the opponent. This explains why the fighters like to use the palm instead of fists: because it seems that the palm is more efficient than fists more efficiently. The second is a gift, usually used for teaching, cooperative attack behavior, or treatment. So we can understand a strange phenomenon they see in these novels, killing and saving people are with palms. The third category is to steal or seize sex, and the internal force of others is based on it. In view of the importance of internal force to the fighters, this approach is more serious than the vampire, so it is often the behavior of the opposite characters. If the front characters occasionally do, it must emphasize not intentional, although sometimes the heart is secret. Therefore, we have seen the history of fighters in the novel, in fact, the history of the development of internal strength. As a saying of China said: the soldiers flow like water, but the military camp is iron-made (suspected is the misuse of "iron-hitting the battalion", the description of the internal force runs through the teacher's novel Always. Below we can make a brief review of this history.
Check the earliest novels of the professor (the original text, in fact, it reflects the oldest novels - translators in the history of the History, reflecting the era of more than 2,000 years ago, and is named "Spring and Autumn" by the Confucius. At this time, China has already had a highly developed civilization, but the professor of check is still deliberately depicted in the book, which is used to imply that the internal force has always been in the process of human evolution. However, from the novel, the peak of internal force development is in the Song Dynasty, combined with practice methods from India, Persian, Southeast Asia, and become an intricate system. But in the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, it gradually did not fall. It seems to be true, because now I don't know who is in the world. Another famous fighting home in the Song Dynasty (Toyan, "Similar to Da Zhongma", "Similarly) can master the" Yuli Jing "of Shaolin Temple, and the Shaolin Temple in Ming Dynasty is regarded as a treasure. Because it is unwilling to save people with this book to save people. In the Qing Dynasty, it may be that the last person known as the inner power, killing the fight against the mediocrity, suggesting the decline of internal force.
This trend is the suspicion of Ming Dynasty fighters to internal force. At this time, some fighters believe that internal strength is not as important as people have always thought, and the fighting technology they practice is not required to have internal strength. Like all academic problems in history, the debate is a good thing, but unfortunately, emphasizing the part of the internal force is considered to be low, and finally killed. The result of the struggle seems to confirm that internal strength is not so important, but in fact, it is because no one will practice inner strength during this period. But since the formation is formed, the future is getting worse. In the Qing Dynasty, although some people still want to practice internal strength, they have reached a certain level, but they have not been able to compare with the Song Dynasty.
In the Qing Dynasty, there is no internal force, just a high IQ, and is good at escaping the boys who have a high-tech hero, in China and Russia's confrontation, and married many wives. This seems to be achieved by those who have many high-capacity people in history. After all, the world has entered the firearmers and the intellectual era. Although China has slowed slowly, it is inevitable. The ancient and medieval romantic legend and heroism have gone, it has become an old antique. However, this trend is more close to contemporary trend. So there is no weird Chinese readers like "Deer Ding Ji", and the Professor of Lie is also what he is his best.
However, in addition to fighting themselves and fighters, these novels also contain more content about Chinese historical culture, such as about religion. From these novels, we can see that during a considerable period of time, the skills on internal strength and fighting are basically in some monks, including Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, Bay, and more, Many Battrans often have a religious scriptures. mixed together. But this situation has changed, and in the Ming Dynasty, in the five major fencing geography, there are three monks who have nothing to do with monks, Buddhism and Taoism, although it is very famous, but rarely came, but it is very happy to plan, The leaders who worshiped the fire were also deep, but the worship of the worship has been degraded into a general group because there is no anywhere related to religion. I will make a brief introduction to the content of several major works below to facilitate the choice of readers.
"Tianlong Babu": Discuss several views on men and women. This book seems to have three male land, they will become friends. Among them, Xiao's appearance is a banner, and the paragraph is opposite to him, it is a good color (but respect for women), and the other (virtual bamboo) is between the two, but I have been thinking about it, but when the beauty comes When I was in front of my eyes, I was surprised and happy, and I finally became a king's son-in-law, and it was a leader of a female community. They eventually become a hero, reflecting the author's tolerance attitude towards this issue. In addition, there are many times, you can see as their variant, such as the father of the segment, is a thorough good color, and finally eat some bitter; Murong doesn't care about the feelings of men and women at all, and even use it. Shameless failure; Ziyan's due to the innate factors and the lanterns of the day, became a matrusive; Shaolin Temple's monk leader was later found to have illegitranes, ......
"Shooting Heroes": Questioning the role of human intelligence. Five people have the strongest people who have the strongest inner, proudly seal themselves as the virtual monarchs (original text). But in the end of the novel, they were surprised to find themselves more than a slightly mentally teneful youth. One of the books seems to have rare beauty and smart women, and ultimately they have this youth. More subtle is that the Western monarch in these five virtual monarchs, and later seem to have the most powerful internal force, but his intelligence is worse - a serious patient with serious dissemination.
"God Carving Heroes": From a side, reflecting the status of animal husbandry at the beginning of Mongolian. There is a lonely girl in the book, it is a beekeeping expert, but it seems that this industry is really unsatisfied at the time, her only one student - later became her husband - did not learn this skill, Instead, it became a nutrition expert and therefore became famous. Finally, this skill has only passed a hundred-year-old people who don't do anything. Of course, they are all very senior fighters, especially in the nuclear carving experts, can then direct many animals through the snoring, but there is no bee alone. His wife once wanted to deliver news through the bees, but he regarded it.
"Swordsman": reflects the tragic encounter of Chinese ancient gay people. The first homosexual is killed in order to protect her homosexual object. The other two are more pitiful, because the gay objects have not yet found, but the author has strongly implicit that they will eventually become the same person as the first homosexual, that is, they will eventually become homosexuality. This is no doubt. These three people have a common feature, which is voluntarily giving up male characteristics through surgery, but the Oriental is almost abandoned by his career after completion, and Yue He Lin believes this is the beginning of their career. In this novel, it is not the only person who has conducted this surgical surgery. There is also a knife hand, and later renamed "No Quit", but his situation is different, his surgery is forced to complete Therefore, I got the tolerance of everyone, I didn't have the bad luck in the other three people, but it would be unknown if he will become a homosexual. It is also worth noting that the book is strongly advocated in the Yue, which later became the synonym of "hypocrites". But in the book, in addition to assassination of two female monk leaders, he is not serious about others; and this assassination does not conform to his goals, because when you merge it later, if you must choose One leader, these two women will choose him instead of another person. "Blood Sword": The protagonist in the book is the final representative of the internal force. The internal force did not fall the first performance as a spiritual decline, Yuan was originally a hero's son, but this did not see some traces in him, he grew up from a small environment, I didn't know anything about the reality. . After leaving the mountains who have learned, it seems to be somewhat. A obvious evidence is that he married the first woman who knew after going down the mountain as a wife. At first, he imitated the people like a child, such as dressed as a young student, although he never officially passed. His behavior is constrained from a small-accepted moral education, but in the heart, he was attracted by a deeds that had passed away. Later, he learned that this person was just his father-in-law, this maybe balanced he has caused by the buzzer. Lost mood. However, this emotional swing made him uncomfortable, and finally did not have a message when he was killed in the Qing Dynasty.
