Jin Yong described Ling Huchong's appearance like this: rectangular face, knife-shaped eyebrows and thin lips. Lin Pingzhi looks like his mother, with fine features and very handsome. The protagonist looks worse than the supporting role, which does not meet the premise of fantasy. If it is changed to second-rate or third-rate martial arts novels, the male protagonists are mostly handsome guys in the sky and on the ground, and there will be countless confidantes for no reason. Young Yue Lingshan and Ling Huchong are childhood friends and have a deep friendship. Even a few months before Lin Pingzhi's arrival, Young's affection for Ling Huchong was obvious, and there seemed to be traces of deepening thinking about the cliff; However, after all, the lover comes first, and the outline of the father comes last. Lin Pingzhi, who resembles Yue Buqun's modesty and self-restraint, attracts Yue Lingshan, while Ling Huchong's appearance is not as good as Lin Pingzhi's, and her unrestrained and unrestrained behavior has become the biggest obstacle in her love, which is rejected by Yue Lingshan, who has always worshipped her father's majesty, and her heart has been promised to Lin Pingzhi.
This description is very rare. It breaks away from the mode of lovers, goes deep into human nature and depicts individuals with personality and pain. Moreover, Jin Yong's brushwork of writing love is also a must. The pen is wonderful, as well as the short anger, thin anger and witty remarks between lovers, which are all in place and can attract people to read. Any masterpiece about love is specific to the details between lovers.
Ling Huchong's growth began with the loss and injustice of love. Since the death of six monkeys, his life has been shrouded in shadow. There are so many troubles and difficulties in life. I believe that people in real life have been misunderstood and rejected. Jin Yong can not only write with rich knowledge of literature and history, but also bring profound life experience. His characterization has a great feature, that is, he honed the hero in the human purgatory and experienced all kinds of worldly wisdom and ghosts. Different from other martial arts works, the hero either came out after practicing peerless martial arts in a remote ravine. Even if Jin Yong lets his hero get a strange fate and a martial arts stunt, he will never get a smooth life. In Jin Yong's novels, the growth of martial arts is one aspect, and the growth of personality is the other. These two aspects sometimes complement each other and are indispensable. Ling Huchong's Nine Swords was the first to succeed, but his ordeal has just begun, and it is precisely because of his loss of school that he was misunderstood step by step. Moreover, because of the prodigal son's feelings and unyielding personality, he often feels wronged and refuses to be innocent. This is not like Huang Laoxie's arrogance, but he has a little self-pity: on the one hand, he suffers from the loss of his youth, on the other hand, he is misunderstood by his beloved master.
With these four kinds of pains, Ling Huchong tasted all the bitterness on the way to Luoyang with Master, which was unbearable for ordinary people. In this respect, Ling Huchong's personality helped him a lot. Although he can't forget his youth, he is very open-minded by nature. After seeing the fact that Yue Lingshan and Lin Pingzhi are in love, he is very calm, and he just wants Yue Lingshan to live a happy life. As long as she is happy, it doesn't matter if she forgets herself completely. So he can still stumble behind Huashan's younger brothers, trying to find Xia Zi's secret, and then commit suicide at the tomb of Six Monkeys. This is Ling Huchong's unique personality. Just imagine, if Yue Buqun and Lin Pingzhi were in his position, even if these two people were good materials with deep scheming and humiliation, they would not be as open-minded as Ling Huchong, and they would certainly keep insults and hatred in mind.
Another feature of Ling Huchong is that he is cheerful and easy-going and likes to make friends. Moreover, regardless of poverty, wealth, righteousness and evil, he gives whatever he likes. It is not easy to do this. First of all, you must be talkative, humorous, temperamental, generous and have some unique skills. For example, at the beginning, when Huashan disciple talked about the master elder brother, he mentioned that he "used the qigong taught by Master without taking a breath, just like taking water from an oolong and drinking half gourd wine to the last drop", which deceived an old man. It will be pleasant to transfer this practice to the desk of a fair-weather friend. Many people know Qigong, but Ling Huchong uses it to drink. It's really a sloppy and playful character.
Although Ling Huchong respects Master, he has his own talent in his heart, because he is a man of temperament and has his own way of dealing with people from time to time, unlike Yue Buqun's intrigue, which drowned his true nature. Therefore, although mentoring has lived together for more than ten years, there is no similarity. In fact, the contradiction between Ling Huchong and Yue Buqun is a main thread running through Xiao Ao's book. Taking them as the key link, other people and plots branch out, such as Zuo Lengchan, Ren Woxing and Dong Fangbubai, which are extensions and supplements of one aspect of them, such as temperament and self-control, such as good and evil. From this perspective, the legendary swordsman is a work with conflicting human nature, which shows the conflict between two different outlook on life and gives a seemingly clear but unclear ending.
Ling Huchong's greatest characteristic is "chivalry and frankness", and what impresses people most is his precious personality. He is never bound by secular etiquette, as long as he thinks it is right, even if people all over the world oppose it, he will not be moved. He is not a successful man, and his background is not impressive. Although he learned the nine swords of Dugu and the method of attracting stars in martial arts, he saved his life and killed the enemy at a critical moment, but most of the time he was seriously injured and sick, and even a street hooligan could not beat him. Ling Huchong certainly didn't have the thought and tendency of "serving the country and the people" that ancient chivalrous people admired most, but it was still touching and awe-inspiring. Because there is nothing despicable in his character and feelings, he is the most natural person and never cares about other people's opinions. He is infatuated with Yue Lingshan and knows everything in the world. Even in front of Yingying, he never hides his likes and dislikes. Ren Woxing is a shinto in the sun and the moon, and he is laughed at by others. He has no intention, no sense of mission, no fame and fortune, and no ambition to "unify the rivers and lakes for thousands of years." As long as there is wine and music, you can "the legendary swordsman" with the person you love.
His chivalrous spirit never makes people think that he is a "savior". Save a forest, Hengshan school, Xiang Wentian is saved. There is absolutely no deeper purpose. This is a feeling from the heart. Even if I don't know you, even if I don't know you very well, I will not hesitate to help you. Ignoring good and evil is Ling Huchong's biggest crime, making friends with Mohist school, evil school and even shameless flower thieves. But in Ling Huchong's mind, the difference between "good" and "evil" is clear. The "integrity" in his mind is a noble and sincere lover, but for those who seem decent, but in fact they are hypocritical, cunning and ambitious, he has never disdained and humiliated, and stayed away from them. He can make friends with Tian Boguang, but he can't stand the "Four Shows of Qingcheng Mountain". He is respectful to Qingzhu Weng, but ignores the Golden Knife Wangs.
Ling Huchong's emotional world is also extremely colorful. He and Yue Lingshan were childhood friends and fell in love. Youth is his favorite person. Ling Huchong can give up everything for her, regardless of martial arts and life. The biggest dream of his life is to be with Yang Ge. No matter what goes against his will, as long as Yue Lingshan asks him, he will do it regardless. Even after he married Yingying two of a kind successfully, youth was still the first thing in his mind. If Younger changes his mind, he will definitely return to Younger.
In his mind, Yingying is "grateful" to him. Even in the end, he felt that he really loved Yingying, but he felt grateful in his heart. Because Yingying is a saint and the daughter of Ren Woxing, all the heroes in the Jianghu respect her. Beautiful, martial arts. Such people are naturally grateful for being so favored in the face of repeated misfortunes and rejection by others. Secondly, Yingying is willing to give up her life for him, betray her father and take risks several times to save him. And know that he loves Yue Lingshan, or love him as always. It can be said that Ling Huchong is more important to Yue Lingshan and Ren Yingying to Ling Huchong. How can Ling Huchong be indifferent? Every time I think of Younger, his heart is always sour and he can't control himself. But every time I think of Yingying, I feel grateful and guilty. On the way outside the green screen, his affection for Yue Lingshan seems to have disappeared, but it is hard to understand what it is.
Elaine has always had an unforgettable love for Ling Huchong. If Yingying still wants to love Ling Huchong, Yilin loves Ling Huchong. She only wants "Brother Hu Ling to be happy all his life". In her mind, Ling Huchong's eldest brother is always the most important. Thousands of pairs of eyes were fixed on Yue Buqun and Zuo Lengchan, and only one pair of eyes was fixed on Ling Huchong from beginning to end. Ling Huchong is not heartless to Yilin, but this feeling is pity, the love of brother and sister, not the love of children. Every time I think of Lin Yi, Ling Huchong always thinks that she would rather die than protect her. Yingying's love for Ling Huchong has a happy ending after all, and Yilin was a tragedy from the beginning. Fate and character doomed Ling Huchong not to love her. Just like Yue Lingshan has always regarded the master elder brother as a playmate rather than a lover. In Ling Huchong's mind, I have never regarded Yilin as a lover. One person's feelings and feelings for another person are not equal.
Ling Huchong is a frank, sincere and aboveboard person. Women are less scheming and do not doubt him, so they know him correctly; However, scheming people measure him with scheming eyes, so they read him all wrong. Ling Huchong values feelings more than face and power. Men don't understand and don't accept, but women can understand deeply, and there will be a * * * sound, which will increase their love for him.
Ling Huchong is not the great warrior, hero or hero that people often say. He is a hermit, and he was really born. He just pursues freedom and doesn't want to be bound. He likes making friends, drinking, learning martial arts and music. Only he can truly "the legendary swordsman".
In Jin Yong's mind, Ling Huchong is also a different person from other characters. In Jin Yong's novels, no one has ever written this person's character with so much pen and ink. Ling Huchong's character is not only reflected in his words and deeds, but also in others' evaluation of Ling Huchong. He also wrote his own personality subjectively.
