A new version of Eight Dragons (see photo) came into the market with the arrival of the martial arts novel master Jin Yong in Taiwan Province Province. According to reports, in the new edition, Duan Yu and Wang Yuyan were not married, and Jin Yong reduced Duan Yu's wife from eight to three; As for the "eighteen palms", it was changed to "twenty-eight palms", and yoga was also included in the book.
The newly revised version of Tianlong Babu was listed five days ago, and its content changed greatly, accounting for about one tenth of all ministries and commissions. * * * three years before and after, changed six times.
Li Jiaying, editor-in-chief of Taiwan Province Liu Yuan Publishing House, said that although Jin Yong is 8 1 year-old, he is one of the most serious authors she has ever seen, and he wrote all the proofreading manuscripts himself.
This time, in order to celebrate the 30th anniversary of his old friend Wang's founding of the publishing group, Jin Yong specially arrived in Taiwan and used his two-day stay to have face-to-face communication with book fans.
In fact, Tian Ba Long Bu is originally a Buddhist novel, and it is also a novel with the most diverse characters, the richest levels and the most wonderful time-travel performance in Jin Yong's martial arts works. This time, in the new novel, the big reversal part includes Duan Yu, the Dali heir who was infatuated with Wang Yuyan and worshipped her as a fairy sister. Because of his life story, he understood the impermanence of life and got rid of his demons in one fell swoop.
In the story, Duan Yu later married Mu and the maid of Princess Yin of Xixia. At the beginning, Jin Yong added more profound thoughts on human nature, so he gave the protagonist Duan Yu a spiritual baptism in advance through his understanding of "magic" and "impermanence".
Wang Yuyan, the heroine in the old version, was originally an out-of-touch character. In the newly revised version, Wang Yuyan had to catch a driftwood in the sea because of his sad cousin Mu Rongfu's ruthlessness, and this driftwood was Duan Yu. Later, Wang Yuyan indulged in searching for the secret of "never making contributions to Changchun", and the image of "fairy elder sister" in the past changed greatly.
Earlier, Hong Kong media reported that Duan Yu finally married eight wives (Mu, A Bi and Mei Lanzhuju). Liu Yuan Publishing House said that this is actually the writing of the third school manuscript, and Jin Yong changed it to Duan Yu to marry three wives after the seventh school finalized it.
As for Feng Xiao and Ah Zhu, another couple in the book, although the new version of Jin Yong failed to bring Ah Zhu back to life, it added many love stories to them. Xiao Feng slapped Zhu on the Qingshiqiao and kissed Zhu on the lips with heartache. The plot of their "first kiss" will definitely comfort Arjun fans.
A cautious gold fan questioned that the "Eighteen Dragons" of Beggars' Juexue was only passed on to the master. How did Xiao Feng pass it on to Hong Qigong in The Legend of the Condor Heroes after his death? The new edition also explains that Jin Yong changed the "eighteen palms" to "twenty-eight palms", and Xiao Feng passed the "twenty-eight palms" and "beating the dog stick" to Yi Shuzhu outside Yanmenguan, and ordered him to pass it on to the next beggar gang leader, and deleted the "twenty-eight palms" and refined it into eighteen palms.
Ding Chunqiu's method of absorbing human internal forces is greatly reduced in the new edition. Jin Yong changed this skill into a highly toxic invasion of meridians, which caused the opponent's internal force to be unable to play, but as long as the poison was solved, the skill was restored. The magical power of Youtan's cultivation was changed from Yijin Jing to Mahabharata Kingdom's desire to break the line and achieve the Divine Foot Jing, which is now the popular "yoga" for office workers.
In the new revised edition, Jin Yong constantly fills in the "blank" part of the old edition that allows readers to imagine freely. He explained his motivation of "filling in the blanks" for the first time in "The Postscript of the Eight Dragons". He believes: "China readers are used to reading novels and don't like their empty thoughts, so they insist on the accuracy of the author's writing." "This may be the advantage of our China personality: we pay attention to real reason, and we are uneasy about unfounded romantic and illusory fiction." For readers who think he is "clumsy" and redundant, Jin Yong said: "Because in my character, clumsy and solid elements are more than clever and ethereal elements."
