Kneel for a martial arts novel

Legend of the Lost Hong

After Jin Yong's Eight Dragons and Wang Dulu's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon were selected as textbooks for middle school students, the legend of the Lost Hong, a martial arts work, also entered the classroom and became a textbook for graduate students together with the Diamond Sutra.

At the invitation of Han Yunbo, a professor at Southwest Normal University, a martial arts writer, Gravel, went to the school to give a lecture with his work "The Legend of the Lost Hong" on Sunday. Dozens of graduate students from different majors gathered together and studied Buddhism theory in depth based on their works. Under the auspices of professors Han Yunbo and Kou Pengcheng, the classroom atmosphere has been very warm, extending from the works themselves to the new martial arts concept in mainland China, talking about Buddhist theory from the characters, and then comparing and investigating the differences between Chinese and Western cultures.

The Legend of the Lost Hong was originally published in the mainland million-dollar martial arts magazine Modern and Ancient Legendary Martial Arts Edition, which was widely welcomed by readers. Like Jin Yong's "Eight Dragons", this is a novel about the fable of Buddhism, which tells the feud between the three eminent monks of Baima Temple in the period of Wuluanhua.

Professor Han Yunbo is a recognized authority in the field of martial arts research, and he has been paying close attention to the newly emerging mainland martial arts. After reading The Legend of the Lost Hong, he was very impressed. He thought that the works reached a certain height in skills, characters and stories, especially in explaining Buddhism in simple terms. Although the structure is not as vast as that of Tian Long Ba Bu, it is as profound and exquisite as fable, even if it is put in graduate class, it is appropriate.

As it happens, there is also a section on the Diamond Sutra in the postgraduate course. Professor Han immediately moved on, and let the Legend of the Lost Hong show itself, making up for the shortcoming that the study of Buddhism and Zen is too boring, and truly achieving the teaching effect of integrating theory with practice.

When asked whether this move was affected by the incident that martial arts novels were selected into middle school textbooks at the beginning of the year, Professor Han disagreed. He believes that compared with the traditional martial arts, the new martial arts in mainland China stood at a higher starting point from the beginning. The reason why The Legend of the Lost Hong entered the postgraduate class is inseparable from the author's profound humanistic cultivation and unique understanding of Buddhism.

The most interesting thing is that Gravel himself is a graduate of Southwest Normal University. Five years after bidding farewell to my alma mater, I am very happy to revisit my old place. He explained the original intention of the creation of The Legend of the Lost Hong. At first, he didn't intend to link it with Buddhism, but when he wrote about the process of the three eminent monks from sinking to conversion, he unconsciously integrated the Buddhist thinking of "emptiness" and "nowhere to live" in Buddhism.

In martial arts works, it is emphasized that between unintentional and intentional, so that the best martial arts can be achieved. The same is true in writing. Unintentional combination can make a wonderful stroke. In the final climax of The Legend of the Lost Hong, the meditation of Buddhism and the development of the story are integrated, and the works are pushed to the climax with the idea of good and evil. Professor Han commented on it as "a way of thinking about the world", and the feelings of encouragement were beyond words.

Many students are quite satisfied with this lively teaching method. They think that The Legend of the Lost Hong is a novel of considerable standard, which has both the heaviness of history and the pursuit of spirit. It is said that the Legend of the Lost Hong, as a representative work of the mainland's new martial arts, is in line with high-end academic research and is a good and successful start. After the publication of "Modern and Ancient Legends of Martial Arts Edition", this work has won the favor of readers. At present, New World Publishing House plans to publish a single book, which is expected to be listed years ago. Publishers said that such a martial arts work, which has received wide attention before its publication, will definitely bring a new shock to the Jianghu world dominated by Jin Yong and Gu Long.
