The author feels that this bad national tendency of "playing with life" has constituted the potential crisis gene of the Chinese nation, so he used the annihilation of Shalong's "soul-breaking" spear skill to send out a roar in order to awaken those people. The soul of the nation is still wandering in the "Great Eastern Dream".
"The Soul-Breaking Gun" is a short story written by Lao She in 1935. The plot of the novel is simple. It tells the story of Sha Shalong, a martial arts master who changed his identity and became an innkeeper. There are three short clips: the martial arts competition between Mr. Sun and Wang Sansheng, and Mr. Sun's performance. Among them, Shashalong's identity change from a knight to an innkeeper is full of the author's deep and dignified cultural complex.
Extended information
"Soul-Breaking Gun" does not seem to describe the spiritual realm of martial arts in detail, but it does describe three people - Wang Sansheng, Mr. Sun and Sha Shalong - who are different. martial arts performance. In fact, these are three completely different realms of martial arts. Wang Sansheng relies on two bull's-eyes, a body full of flesh, and a lot of dead strength. He can only defeat people with force and bluff amateurs. He has no internal strength, let alone inner spiritual cultivation.
Old man Sun has excellent internal strength, his forehead is bright, his eyes are deep, and his eyes are as black as two deep wells, shining with a dark light. Competing with Wang Sansheng, he stared at the tip of Wang's spear with great power, and his eyes seemed to suck in the tip of the spear. Before receiving the weapon, Wang Sansheng felt weak. When they started fighting, Mr. Sun tried his best and defeated Wang Sansheng. But compared to Sand Dragon, Old Man Sun can only fall behind.
In fact, there is no actual scene in the novel where the sand dragon shows off its martial arts. I just wrote a sentence at the beginning: I created the five worlds of the "Sharp Gun Shalong" in my life, and traveled in the northwest without encountering an opponent for twenty years; at the end I wrote a sentence: "The Shashalong closed the courtyard door and took down the sixty-four in one go." Shoot down." In other words, the author's description of Sand Dragon's martial arts skills is almost entirely fictional. In fact, this is the author's brilliance.
