Chapter 855: Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slayer (IV)
Where there is Zhang Kexi, there is Liang Shilu.
As mentioned earlier, every time Zhang Kexi made xx remarks, Liang Shilu would jump out to refute. The specific enmity between the two has long been unknown, but the drama of falling in love and killing each other is always going on.
This time, not long after Zhang Kexi published the book review "I Hate Zhang Wuji the Most", Liang Shilu posted a book review called "I am the Only Leader of Zhang Da".
Just from the titles of the two book reviews, you can vaguely see the aura of rivalry. What's more interesting is that Liang Shilu's book review is not just for the sake of opposition. He also has his own opinions and quotes a lot from the plot. He refuted Zhang Kexi one by one——
[When I turned over the last page of "Eternal Dragon Sword", I felt a mixture of emotions in my heart!
Interpreting Zhang Wuji's fate, it seemed that he was breathing with him. Zhang Wuji, who had gone through many tribulations, finally withdrew from this troubled world. When I read the part about him finally fulfilling his promise and painting eyebrows for Zhao Min, I actually felt... The silent emotion is flowing——
Through Zhang Kexi’s book review, I know...
Although Luo Da wanted to emphasize the feelings of brothers, father and son in the book.
But readers should be more concerned about Zhang Wuji's oscillation and confusion between the four girls Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao Zhao, and Yin Li.
A man hovering between two women is enough to attract infamy. Leader Zhang Da’s dream of a teapot with four cups really makes many male compatriots who share this dream dare not publicly support him or reverse his case. Zhang Kexi 's book reviews have seized the market in this context, but what I want to say is that if you look at Master Zhang Da that way, it is too superficial.
Is Zhang Wuji really indecisive and completely lacking in opinions?
I don’t think so. Shang was abducted by Xuan Ming and his father when he was young. He was tortured and refused to reveal the whereabouts of his adoptive father Xie Xun. Entrusted by Ji Xiaofu, he escorted Yang Buhui to the Western Regions and was in critical danger several times. There was no hesitation at all; not to mention, in "Solving Trouble as the Strong Six", he risked his life to prevent the six righteous men from massacring the Ming Cult. Afterwards, he made a three-part agreement with the powerful Ming Cult to stop the killing of innocent people; Han Lin'er said When it came to driving away the barbarians and making Zhang Wuji the emperor, Zhang Wuji even vowed to retire with success, without any hint of hypocrisy.
A true man should be trustworthy and righteous, he should save people in danger, and he should be self-aware.
Zhang Wuji was clear and decisive in making choices on these issues involving the fundamentals of human beings, so how could he be dragging his feet?
Let’s take a look at the difficult-to-choose side of leader Zhang Da. The article lists his various qualities and temperaments, and Zhang Kexi also quotes a large number of references as arguments. In my opinion, this is somewhat scratchy and unrealistic.
It was Xiao Zhao's request to practice the Great Shifting Mind Technique. This was really because he was not arrogant and did not expect that he could practice it successfully.
The appointment as leader of Mingjiao was not only forced by the situation, but also moved by Yin Tianzheng, Yin Ye Wang and others. It is rare and valuable for a person without any ambition to go against his own nature and sacrifice himself to serve others; as for his engagement to Zhou Zhiruo, it was because of Xie Xun He was ordered not to attend court with Zhou Zhiruo but was also forced by Zhao Min. There was something objectionable about it, but it involved emotional entanglements. It was often like a person drinking water. He knows whether he is warm or cold, and the outsider understands the confusion in the game.
What impressed me the most were these clips:
For example, when the six major sects besieged the Mingjiao, Zhang Wuji could have happily reunited with the long-lost Wudang masters and uncles to participate in the grand event. However, when he saw the extermination master's eyes red with blood, he was confused: "That Qingyi The Bat King only killed two people, but you have killed ten times more people. He killed with his teeth, and Master killed with the Sky Sword. What is the difference between good and evil in ordinary killing?"
For another example, Zhang Wuji also had multiple concerns about the Mingjiao followers he led. When he saw "these evil heretics act treacherously and viciously", he couldn't help but disagree with them.
Therefore, Zhang Wuji's hesitation and inability to think clearly made me feel that it was not a shortcoming, but rather valuable.
Being too firm about "good" and "evil" is a fallacy. Being too firm can easily produce a color and tone that is contagious, sounding impassioned and joyful. Although this has its bright side and can also be said to be a manifestation of vigorous vitality, it is inevitably too narrow-minded, impulsive, and even more extreme. Then it leads to bold slaughter. Throughout the ages, there have been countless similar dangers.
Everyone hates Master Jue.
Isn't Master Miejie an example of being too firm on the so-called good and evil and mistaken himself?
People are often intimidated by trends and affiliations to stand on one side. Unfortunately, the so-called "good and evil" are two flags with different purposes but the same purpose. These two flags give those trapped in them the legitimacy to hunt others. The result is that They are attacking each other, never ending, but no one has time to stop and think: Why is this?
In addition to black and white, the colors in the world also include a large number of gray areas. The wisdom of life lies in how to identify the transition between black and white, and how to understand and deal with those gray lives and events? Zhang Wuji did not have such wisdom. Therefore, he is confused, at a loss, and often passive and at a loss. But he has lived in the isolated Binghuo Island since he was a child. His parents came from Wudang and Mingjiao respectively, so he did not have any rigid concepts about "good and evil" and "right and wrong". His temperament is as simple as a baby. and natural.
This naturally enables him to be unbiased and make no choices, and can accommodate both the clear and the turbid. It is like a stream flowing smoothly, bringing together the forces of the good and the evil factions to drive away the barbarians, forming an aura that embraces all rivers.
Zhang Wuji's indecisiveness certainly has its weaknesses, but he is excellent in martial arts and has strong energy. He does not make decisions easily, and he is also cautious and generous.
In this way, Zhang Wuji's attitude towards the four women is also another kind of tolerance. Yin Li has a perverse temperament, Xiao Zhao is scheming, Zhou Zhiruo is rigid and insidious, and Zhao Min is willful and vicious. Only Zhang Da can treat them without being harsh or defensive. It is no wonder that all the women have fallen in love with them.
In our nation and traditional culture, which is easy to divide into black and white, we need a little bit of "indecisive" spirit. Just a pause may tear open the obstacles that originally blinded our eyes and avoid many unnecessary disputes and fights. There is no shortage of heroes who drive their own energy to turn the tide in the world, but there is a lack of Zhang Da who doubts himself and goes with the flow despite having sharp weapons.
Presumably, Luo Da wrote Zhang Wuji to write the story of an ordinary person.
Many people don't like Zhang Wuji because he is just like you and me, very ordinary and common. He is not as decisive as the protagonists of other martial arts novels. Zhang Kexi said that he hates Zhang Wuji, but he likes "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" precisely because of the ordinary Zhang Wuji. Only Zhang Wuji can make people love and hate him to this extent.]
