Nothing but seniority! Huang Yaoshi is a generation of genius, and it is easy to establish a sect. A sect naturally has seniority. Huang Yaoshi is a literary and artistic person, so it is not impossible to use Feng, Ya and Song as seniority. The first generation naturally has the word "wind"!
Mei Chaofeng’s first name was also Mei Ruohua, but later it was changed to Mei Chaofeng. This seems to be mentioned in her memoirs. Just like the Quanzhen, Qingcheng, Shaolin, and Emei sects, there are those with the Xu character, such as Taoist Xuqing; there are the Shizi generation, such as the great monk Shi Wuzun, etc.
From a literary and artistic point of view, the names of Huang Yaoshi's first apprentices all ended with the word "wind". This may be because wind is flexible, it can be big or small, strong or weak, and it can penetrate everything. The medicine master hopes that his apprentices will have strong martial arts skills, graceful postures, and be as elegant and agile as the wind. Although the wind is invisible, it can overcome hardness with softness. Whether you are a mountain, a boulder, a big tree, or a grass, it can slowly change under the continuous blowing and erosion of the wind. The implication is that as long as you persevere, you will definitely achieve something.
Generally speaking, people in the martial arts use words such as peak, mountain, hero, hero, yang, sea, etc., which make people feel tall and broad at first glance, but Huang Yaoshi did the opposite to show that His unique style of doing things.
Huang Yaoshi likes intangible things. The names of his martial arts, such as "Luoying Divine Palm", "Blue Sea Tide Song", "Flicking Finger Magical Power", etc., are all invisible, and "Wind" ” is an extremely vivid representative symbol of this characteristic.
Huang Yaoshi's style of doing things is vigorous and resolute, never procrastinating, and the most typical example is that he drove all his apprentices out of the teacher in a fit of anger. The word "wind" is very similar to his style of doing things.
Based on the above reasons, Mr. Jin Yong chose the last word of Huang Yaoshi's apprentice as "wind".
