Gu Long said that rivers and lakes are "Tianya, Mingyue, Dao, Meteor, Butterfly and Sword".
Jin Yong said that rivers and lakes are "great men of chivalry, serving the country and the people.
Gu Long waved his hand and said, Jianghu is "drinking the strongest wine and falling in love with the most beautiful people.
Some people say that Jin Yong is like an old man in front of the fire and says, Come, I'll tell you a story.
and gu long is, come on, drink this glass of wine, and let's talk about this world.
Jin Yong tells stories, while Gu Long tells feelings.
Gu Long's feelings, a kind of prodigal feelings who are unwilling to be worldly and stick to the rules.
In this era, perhaps the real prodigal son has gone home and the black-and-white film has ended, but people with such feelings are still there.
So Gu Long may not be lonely.
Gu Long was born in 1938, and his real name was Xiong Yaohua. His father, Xiong Fei, wrote a martial arts novel. When the War of Liberation broke out, he eloped with his lover and left Gu Long's family of five behind.
The young Gu Long looked around angrily for his father. When he found him, he had a big fight with him and threatened, "You don't want this home, so do I!"
His father's abandonment of his wife and children had a great influence on Gu Long, who was still a minor. He hated his father all his life and claimed to have broken off his father-son relationship. Later, when someone asked him who his father was, he never mentioned Xiong Fei's name again.
After Gu Long's father left, the family's economy was in trouble, and Gu Long began to earn some contributions to subsidize his family. He first wrote not martial arts novels, but literary novels. At the age of 17, he published a short literary novel "From the North to the South".
this kind of life didn't last long, and he ran away from home and wandered to Taipei. After that, he joined the gang, became a gangster, haunted dance halls and nightclubs all day, and lived a life of fighting and killing everywhere. He was often chased and chopped with a knife in the street.
After the 195s, Taiwan Province's martial arts novels became very popular, and Gu Long's friends urged him to sell his literary works and rewrite them. Gu Long began to write martial arts novels in order to sell literature in exchange for wine.
Some people say that Jin Yong wrote about Jianghu outside the Jianghu, while Gu Long wrote about Jianghu in the Jianghu.
It's not unreasonable. Jin Yong is a learned scholar, but he is a real Jianghu without swords and shadows. And Gu Long himself is a Jianghu person.
Gulong is a good wine. You should buy a good wine after receiving the manuscript fee. He can drink several bottles of XO a day.
He once said, "Actually, I don't like drinking very much. What I love is not the taste of wine, but my friends when I drink, and the atmosphere and fun after drinking wine. This atmosphere can only be created by wine. "
Gu Long is a good woman. Although she is only 156 cm tall and her head is as big as a bucket, she is not handsome, but she has outstanding talents and spends money like water, and there is always no shortage of beautiful women around her.
Gu Long is a contradiction. He longs for the warmth of his family, but he is unwilling to be bound by it.
He had many women in his life and was formally married twice. When he was with his first wife, Mei Baozhu, it was the peak of his creation. At that time, he was in high spirits and wrote the three most important series of works in his life, namely, the Legend of Lu Xiaofeng, the Legend of Chu Liuxiang and the Seven Weapons.
His marriage with Mei Baozhu was a much-told story at that time. Chen Dinggong, a famous literary celebrity, also wrote a couplet for him, cleverly embedding his and Mei Baozhu's names in the couplet:
Bao Liuzhu's audition in Dangchun, and Gu Taolong's sword night paper.
But in the end, Gu and Mei were separated.
The woman who accompanied Gu Long to the last stage of her life was named Yu Xiuling. She is a fan of Gu Long's short story, and Gu Long is her hero. In the late period of Gu Long's life, she went in and out of the hospital as usual, vomiting blood repeatedly, being in a coma and getting drunk. Only Yu Xiuling was willing to accompany her all the time. Perhaps, only one of Gu Long's women really loves everything about Gu Long.
In p>1967, Gu Long met Ni Kuang and became very good friends with him. When Gu Long was down and out, Ni Kuang gave him money. Gu Long was chopped, and Ni Kuang took him to the hospital for stitches. Even when Gu Long serialized his novels, there was a break, and Ni Kuang helped him to write a few chapters.
Gu Long and Ni Kuang
Later, Gu Long and Ni Kuang met Sanmao together. San Mao commented on Gu Long and said, "If I have one percent of his open-mindedness, I will be very satisfied."
She met Gu Long at a party. That day, she wore an off-the-shoulder dress and sat under a lamp. Her skin was as smooth as snow. Gu Long and Ni Kuang saw it and sneaked behind her. They shouted "One, two, three!" One side, took a bite on San Mao's shoulder.
San Mao is frank and open-minded, instead of angry, she smiles and becomes one with them.
Gu Long likes Sanmao very much. Once when Sanmao went to his house, he was drinking and suddenly said to Sanmao, "Sanmao, has anyone ever bullied you? If someone bullies you in the future, let me know. " This made San Mao very moved.
Later, Gu Long, Ni Kuang and San Mao also made a life-and-death contract, stipulating that if anyone dies first, the soul will come back and tell the living about the other world.
The word of Gu Long
Gu Long loves to make friends. He and Jin Yong have been friends for a long time before they met. The reason why he can have the highest position in the martial arts world is also inseparable from Jin Yong's support.
Before Gu Long became famous, Jin Yong was the Taishan Beidou in the martial arts world. He was 14 years older than Gu Long and greatly appreciated Gu Long's talent.
In p>1972, the serial of The Duke Of Mount Deer, Jin Yong's last book, in Ming Pao was coming to an end, which announced that Jin Yong's martial arts era was coming to an end.
This year, Jin Yong personally wrote a letter to Gu Long asking him to write a martial arts serial for Ming Pao.
According to Yu Donglou, a disciple of Gu Long, when the letter arrived, Gu Long was about to take a bath, and Yu Donglou opened it for him, saying it was Jin Yong's invitation letter. Gu Long was so excited that after reading Jin Yong's letter, he even forgot to take a shower.
Gu Long deeply understands the meaning of this letter, which is like choosing a successor before the leader of Wulin abdicates.
From that moment on, it means that Jin Yong invited Gu Long to join in the history of martial arts.
In p>198, when Gu Long was drinking in Songyin Pavilion, he was forced to drink by the underworld. He refused to obey, and the other side fought with each other. He blocked with his bare hands and cut the artery in his hand.
a person has 28CC of blood, and he loses 2CC at a time, and his blood pressure drops to 8, and his life is dying. The doctor took emergency measures to sew up his aorta and immediately transfused blood, but at that time, the blood in the blood bank was limited, so he had to send people to buy a lot of matching plasma everywhere while transfusing blood.
Later, the doctor found out that Gu Long had liver disease. It turned out that the blood was not clean at that time, which led to his hepatitis.
Although liver disease won't kill people, doctors say patients can't drink hard liquor. If they drink it again, they will be unconscious, and if it is serious, they will die.
Gu Long is a heavy drinker. Even when he is lying in a hospital bed, he still drinks XO.
In p>1985, Gu Long died. At the age of 48.
he drank himself to death.
After Gu Long's death, Sanmao and Ni Kuang burst into tears at his funeral.
His friends put 48 bottles of XO in his coffin and buried him. Many people present wrote elegies to him.
Ni Kuang wrote: You have gone far, will I stay long?
San Mao wrote: I came here in a colorful way, but I went there without a trace, and I didn't forget to get drunk once. The pen may be a little dark, so stay at ease for a while, and we will bring wine later.
At Gu Long's funeral, Sanmao and Ni Kuang were heartbroken.
After Gu Long's death, Sanmao always missed the life-and-death contract with him. According to secular legend, after 7749 days, it is the day when the soul returns. On the day of Gu Long's soul's return, Sanmao lit a lamp in her small building in Taipei, quietly waiting for the soul to return.
But after all, Yin and Yang were separated, Gu Long didn't come, and Sanmao was dejected.
In p>1991, six years after Gu Long's death, Sanmao passed away. At the age of 48.
She wore red pajamas with a white background and hanged herself with nylon stockings, leaving no suicide note at the scene.
after San Mao's death, Ni Kuang's heart ached. Of the original three, he was the only one left.
Ni Kuang said that Gu Long and San Mao are obsessed with death, and they like to walk in this way.
In my opinion, Gu Long and San Mao have some characteristics in common. They are all literati who are most affectionate and have prodigal feelings.
for gu long, the prodigal son's feelings are "how can the world be far away when people are at the end of the world?"
For Sanmao, it is "Don't ask me where I come from, my hometown is far away.
whether it's Gu Long's wandering in the North Taiwan or San Mao's wandering in the Sahara Desert.
whether they have traveled all over the world or not, they are essentially people who are willing to use their lives to hit the limit of freedom.
personality is almost enchanting, life is like fireworks, but it inevitably falls into desolation at the end.
Gu Long lived to be 48 years old, so did San Mao. Is this fate or coincidence?
In his life, Gu Long wrote more than 7 martial arts novels, which were adapted into more than 8 films. He is the most important creator in the martial arts world after Jin Yong. He sought change all his life, unwilling to follow the old path of traditional martial arts, and created a stream of consciousness martial arts such as Tianya Mingyue Knife, and also created a series of fable martial arts such as Seven Weapons.
Up to now, the "Gu Long Feng" talked about by martial arts fans is still blowing through the rivers and lakes.
He created Xiao Li's Li Xunhuan and Chu Liuxiang, who are well-known in Jianghu, so every time he dies, Jianghu chivalrous friends never forget to recite the sentence written by Qiao Ji for him:
Xiao Li's flying knife became a masterpiece, and Chu Liuxiang is not seen in the world.
Gu Long himself said, "I got everything with a pen, even I shouldn't have it, and that's loneliness."
After breaking up with his father for many years, Gu Long saw searching for you published by his father in the newspaper one day. Only then did he know that his father was seriously ill in the hospital at this time, waiting for the arrival of death peacefully, leaving only one last wish, that is to see him again.
Gu Long hurried to the hospital to visit his father. On his deathbed, his father asked him, "Do you still hate me?"
Gulong burst into tears and kept shaking his head to bury the hatchet with him.
Life may just be a happy drama. After reading all the vicissitudes of life, it is discovered that no matter how good the grapes and wine, no matter how beautiful the pink lady is, it is not worth a real greeting from the people in front of us. After experiencing the real carnage, the infatuated love and hate, and the resentment on the rivers and lakes dispersed, I suddenly saw life clearly.
One day in the last week before Gu Long died, his good friend Lin Qingxuan went to see him, and Gu Long wrote him a word:
You can get drunk slowly if you spend flowers on strangers. Endure the floating name and change it to shallow singing.
Gu Long said to Lin Qingxuan, "In the past, binge drinking was to cover up the emptiness inside. Now you can get drunk when you see strange flowers, and the realm is higher. "
