Why was the Ming Sect in "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" regarded as a "demon cult" and "evil cult" by the famous and decent people at that time?
In fact, it is not unjust at all.
Before Zhang Wuji became the sect leader, the actions of the Ming Sect people were full of "demonic nature" and "evil nature".
The former sect leader Yang Dingtian, although his martial arts are strong, except for Zhang Sanfeng of the Wudang faction, he is almost invincible in the world. But he was clumsy in his efforts and died a terrible death.
In the secret passage of Guangming Ding, Yang Dingtian accidentally bumped into his wife and Cheng Kun, the "Mixed Yuan Thunderbolt", during the critical period of cultivation of the Great Shift, and when he was depressed, he went mad and died, which led to the fragmentation of Mingjiao.
Although Cheng Kun's words may not be credible, Yang Dingtian married Cheng Kun's junior sister, which is somewhat suspected of bullying others and snatching love. Of course, the specific relationship between these three people is vague in the original work, and it is inconvenient to delve into it.
The purple-shirted dragon king Dai Qisi, the head of the four ** kings, is one of the "three holy women" of the Persian Sect and belongs to the super spy. The main purpose of joining the Sergeant Mingjiao is to retrieve the internal strength of the Great Shift, so as to accumulate merit and prepare for becoming the head of the sect.
As a result, she was sad, fell in love with "Mr. Silver Leaf" Han Qianye, and gave birth to her daughter Xiao Zhao. After her husband died of serious injuries, she became a widow. In order to avoid the pursuit of the Persian archmaster, the daughter did not dare to raise her personally, and her identity and image did not dare to be disclosed. With the posture of the first beauty in martial arts, but she has to pretend to be an ugly old woman. The degree of her perverse personality is too comparable to that of the exterminator. Life can be regarded as extremely aggrieved.
The golden lion king, who is all-round in civil and military affairs, should have been the best candidate for the leader of the Ming Sect, but he encountered an unprecedented evil**. He was insulted and damaged, and became a tool for Cheng Kun to stir up the rivers and lakes and destroy the Ming Sect in order to avenge his personal revenge. He not only killed countless people and became the public enemy of martial arts people, but also injured his heart because of the practice of Seven Injuries Boxing, became an intermittent mental patient, his eyes were blinded by Yin Susu, and he lived a half-human and half-beast life on ** Island. It's an extremely miserable life.
The blue-winged bat king Wei smiled, because the cold poison entered the body during practice, and he had to save his life by sucking the blood of living people. To outsiders, this is a typical vampire bat, not a normal human being. If it weren't for Zhang Wuji's reliance on Jiuyang Divine Skill to remove the root of his illness later, I don't know how long this kind of half-human and half-demon days would last.
Yang Xiao, the left envoy of light, is handsome and chic, and has outstanding talents and martial arts, but his actions are strange and unpredictable. Especially in the treatment of Ji Xiaofu of the Emei faction, he is very ashamed of decent people, even if Ji Xiaofu has "no complaints and no regrets", but Yang Xiao's conduct is a definite fact. In fact, if you think about it from another perspective, he did make a mistake first, and he couldn't swallow the breath of the Emei Sect Exterminator. Therefore, after Ji Xiaofu's death, he caught the Emei faction's pursuit and fierce attack, and the suspicion of not distinguishing between public and private and communiqué and personal vendetta could not be washed away.
Fan Yao, the right envoy of light, used to be a talent. However, after being rejected by Dai Qisi, she became angry and used despicable means to assassinate her rival Han Qianye, which eventually led to the latter's serious death. Dai Qisi also lived a lonely life all her life, living a dark life. Fan Yao, who later disfigured himself, traveled for many years, infiltrated the Ruyang Mansion in an extraordinary way, endured for many years, and waited for an opportunity to make meritorious contributions to the Ming Sect. This loyalty and scheming are certainly admirable, but they can be so ruthless to themselves, let alone others.
The main leadership is acting in such a way, and the five scattered people who are behind the sect leader, the left and right messengers of light, and the four major guardian kings - Peng Monk Peng Yingyu, Tieguan Daoist Zhang Zhong, Mr. Leng Qian of Leng Mian, Budai Monk Unspeakable, and Zhou Dian - are also strange, far from the mainstream, and speak and do things in a way that is incompatible with ordinary people in ...... rivers and lakes
It is precisely because of this that even Zhang Sanfeng, who sees through the world, is open-minded and flexible, and does not rigidly adhere to the concept of the distinction between good and evil, he also has a lot of criticism of Mingjiao, and he is unwilling to have obvious relations with Mingjiao.
Putting aside the blessing of the protagonist's aura, is it normal for the new Mingjiao to advocate without taboo?
Neither. When he was just sensible, he encountered a human tragedy in which both his parents committed suicide in front of him. The probability of success is less than 1 in 10,000.
What is strange is that Zhang Wuji was inexplicable when he became an adult, and he even forgot about his parents' hatred, this kind of overall view is really incredible. His goal in life is extremely vague, passive and hesitant everywhere, not only is the camp of friend and foe vague, but the emotional world is as unpredictable as his mastery, and the confusion of "who do I love" is not solved until the end. Compared with his comprehension in martial arts, it is really incomparable.
Of course, the character of Zhang Wuji is Jin Yong's attempt to transfer the "hero" to ordinary people after creating a Confucian hero like Guo Jing and a Taoist hero like Yang Guo. Zhang Wuji's "abnormality", his image of a "little devil" and a "little lewd thief" in the eyes of decency just shows that in addition to martial arts, he is just a mortal.
Compared with those heroes who have almost no shortcomings, Zhang Wuji is precisely the most real, because he has the weaknesses of ordinary people.
All in all, the labeling of Mingjiao as "demon" and "evil" is not only due to the arrogance and prejudice of the famous and upright, but also due to the characteristics of the Mingjiao people who despise etiquette and law, and act maverickly.
The implications for our lives are:
How others perceive you and how they characterize you, of course, it may be that you are wearing colored glasses, you think that you are not objective enough, and even feel wronged, but you can't help but reflect on whether your words and deeds are also problematic.
