Of course Xu Qingru didn't know that the "Legends of Modern and Ancient Times. Martial Arts" magazine would have such a big opinion on her. However, it was the Gulong martial arts work she collaborated with Chen Mengguo that received the greatest attention from "Jianghu" magazine. After they completed " After "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", "Jianghu" magazine has been looking forward to the stars and the moon for the new works of Teacher Xunuo and Teacher Mengguo.
In fact, "The Passionate Swordsman", a collaboration between her and Chen Mengguo, is already in the process of creation.
"Sentimental Swordsman" is one of the representative works of Gu Long's martial arts and the first part of the "Xiao Li Flying Knife" series.
The book has a twists and turns of plot and high artistic achievements, leaving readers with rich artistic models.
It is not only a work that illustrates the true meaning of martial arts, but also a human history painting that describes the harshness of the world. It is also a cautionary masterpiece that touches social reality and explores the philosophy of life.
The protagonist Li Xunhuan also has a very distinctive personality, and the sentence describing him, "Little Li's flying daggers, never fails" is full of character.
He is also known as "Xiao Li Tanhua", who was the Tanhua during the reign of Emperor Xianzong of the Ming Dynasty (the first and third place in the Jinshi list in the imperial examination). He comes from a scholarly family.
The three fathers and sons of the Li family are all good at literature and calligraphy. They were all ranked third in the imperial examination and high school. They are famous in their hometown as "Old Li Tanhua" (Li Xunhuan's father), "Big Li Tanhua" (Li Xunhuan's brother), and "Little Li Tanhua" (Li Xunhuan). There is also a couplet written by Yu Shu on the door of the Li family: "One family has seven Jinshi, and the father and son have three visits to the flowers."
Due to his successful career, Li Xunhuan became an official in the imperial court in his early years. Later, due to being impeached by Hu Yunji, he finally resigned and left because of his indifferent character.
Later, Li Xunhuan joined the martial arts world and became a leading martial arts figure, famous for his skill with flying knives.
He and Lin Shiyin fell in love with each other, made an engagement, and originally wanted to get married; later, because he knew that his sworn brother Long Xiaoyun was in love with Lin Shiyin, and wanted to repay his kindness, he deliberately indulged in alcohol and sex, and used excuses to alienate Lin Shiyin, which led to the relationship between Long Xiaoyun and Lin Shiyin. marriage. After Long Xiaoyun got married to Lin Shiyin, he gave his mansion and wealth to Lin Shiyin as a dowry, and went out to remain anonymous.
More than ten years later, Li Xunhuan returned to the Central Plains to see Lin Shiyin again. He met the "Flying Swordsmen" A Fei and Sun Xiaohong, and once again caused a bloody storm in the world.
He was once involved in the "Plum Blossom Robbery" case and was once regarded as the "Plum Blossom Robber". After several twists and turns, the truth came to light. However, he was involved in the struggle between Lin Xianer, Long Xiaoyun, Shangguan Jinhong and others. He finally killed Shangguan Jinhong, teamed up with Sun Xiaohong, and retired from the world again.
Although the protagonist Li Xunhuan is also extremely powerful, he is basically invincible as soon as he appears, and his behavior is also full of force. For example, he keeps drinking and coughing, and uses a flying knife to carve the image of his beloved woman. These details, let’s take a look This makes the character of Li Xunhuan come alive.
He attaches great importance to brotherly loyalty. It can be said that as a man, he is very happy to be a brother with someone like Li Xunhuan. Maybe Li Xunhuan gave you his wife in order to repay your kindness?
However, Xu Qingru himself couldn't stand Li Xunhuan's behavior of sending Lin Shiyin away in order to repay his kindness to Long Xiaoyun. If there was no affection between him and Lin Shiyin, that would be fine, but they did love each other and their feelings were very strong. However, Li Xunhuan gave up the woman he loved for the sake of so-called brotherhood or a little face. Not only was he extremely depressed and depressed, but Lin Shiyin was also in great pain.
How could Long Xiaoyun be better off? Even if Lin Shiyin became his wife, he knew that Lin Shiyin had always had Li Xunhuan in her heart, and then Li Xunhuan came to see Lin Shiyin. This made Long Xiaoyun completely insecure. Maybe his wife would follow Li Xunhuan at that time. Already...
Then again, it really makes no sense for Li Xunhuan not to marry Lin Shiyin before this. Maybe it’s because Li Xunhuan is the perfect reflection of Gu Long himself. Gu Long has been romantic all his life, loves fine wine, and is a prodigal. This can also be seen from Li Xunhuan’s character. Some traces.
But no matter what, "The Sentimental Swordsman" is indeed a classic martial arts work. There is a sentence written when mourning Gu Long, called "Xiao Li's flying sword has become an unstoppable sound, and Chu Liuxiang has not been seen in the world." It can be seen that these two works are closely related to each other. The status of all Gu Long's works.
The opening chapter of "The Passionate Swordsman and the Ruthless Sword" is quite eye-catching——
“The cold wind is like a knife, treating the earth as a chopping block and treating all living beings as fish and meat.
Thousands of miles of flying snow turns the sky into a furnace and melts everything into silver.
The snow was about to settle, the wind was still uncertain, and a carriage came from the north. The rolling wheels crushed the ice and snow on the ground, but they could not crush the loneliness between heaven and earth. "
With this kind of beginning, the artistic conception comes instantly, because the writing is really great, with great literary talent, and the picture is also laid out, making people instantly immersed in the created atmosphere.
It has to be said that the beginning of Gu Long's martial arts is always very gripping, unlike Jin Yong, the latter's protagonist always takes a long time to prepare for his appearance, which leads to many readers misjudgment, such as "The Swordsman", if not After watching the TV series in advance, many readers would mistakenly think that Lin Pingzhi is the protagonist in just the first three chapters...
Although the beginning of Gu Long is extremely exciting, it is very difficult for ordinary cartoonists to express such a scene. How to draw a scene where the sky and earth are filled with snowflakes and it is even more lonely. Woolen cloth?
How to outline such an atmosphere that makes people immerse themselves in it all of a sudden?
It can be said that one of the essence of Gu Long is his rendering of the atmosphere. What makes readers hate and love him is that he always uses foreshadowing techniques to render a big shot that makes people feel particularly awesome. But such a "big shot" "He was instantly killed by the protagonist within two seconds, which made people feel like they were being fooled.
Xu Qingru is of course not an ordinary cartoonist. She has master-level painting skills. Her grasp of Gu Long's style is already perfect. In the final analysis, it can be said in two words - show off.
She is also very good at materializing abstract things, so she easily used her artistic painting techniques to depict the opening scene of this comic. In order to make this scene more impressive, she also painted It is colored, and if you look at the beginning alone, you will think that it is a perfect snow scene.
The next step was to draw the character Li Xunhuan - while he was drinking heavily, he coughed loudly. His constant coughing made his pale face turn a sickly red, like the flames of hell. It was burning his body and soul.
When the bottle was empty, he picked up a knife and began to carve a figure. The blade was thin and sharp, and his fingers were long and strong.
This is a portrait of a woman. Under his skillful technique, the outlines and lines of this portrait appear to be so soft and graceful, as if it is alive.
He not only gave her moving lines, but also gave her life and soul, just because his life and soul had quietly slipped away from under the blade.
As long as readers see the protagonist Li Xun Huan, they will definitely be very interested in his past. However, when readers know about Li Xun Huan's behavior of giving away his wife, the feeling of being poisoned by Wen Qing will be even more profound. …
When Xu Qingru had the vest of "promise" as a cover, she dared to let herself go even more.
After the opening chapter is over, the rest of the plot can be completely left to Chen Mengguo. After the other party has been trained in Chu Liuxiang's work, it is not a big problem to control Gu Long's style.
(End of chapter)
