Who's the hero in Tian Long Ba Bu?

The real identity of the hero in Eight Dragons is Master Xuan Ci, the abbot of Shaolin Temple, who is also the biological father of Xu Zhu.

Eldest brother listened to Murong Bo's slanderers and took the lead in killing the Xiao Yuanshan family with dozens of experts. Xiao Yuanshan didn't die. Xiao Feng, the son of Xiao Yuanshan, survived because of the kindness of his eldest brother and others, but Xiao Feng's biological mother really died.

In order to find out the murderer of his family, Xiao Feng has been looking for who is the leading brother. Kang Min hated Duan, Duan Yu's father, and told Duan that Duan was the eldest brother. Ah, Zhu realized that Duan was his own father. In order to save his father, Zhu pretended to be Duan and accepted the eighteen dragon paws. Xiao Feng killed Arju by mistake, which is the biggest regret in his life.

In the Shaoshishan War, Xiao Yuanshan exposed the true identity of the leading brother. He is Xuan Ci, who is famous for his kindness. Xuan Ci is really a good man, but he also has shortcomings. When he was young, he had sex with Ye Erniang, one of the four villains, gave birth to Xu Zhu, and killed the Xiao Yuanshan family by mistake with a group of people.

When the truth comes out, cause and effect are connected. Xuan Ci and Ye Erniang committed suicide together, but Xu Zhu, who just learned about his parents' life, had to accept the fact that his parents died on the same day.

Appreciation of works:

On the surface, Jin Yong's "Ba Long Bu" is not directly related to the famous ancient Greek tragedy "King Oedipus". However, if we make a prototype analysis of Tian Bu, we can see their profound internal unity through the great differences between the two works.

The tragedy of Oedipus is the most fateful tragedy in ancient Greek myths and legends. The more Oedipus tries to escape the doomed misfortune, the more he falls into the magic circle of tragic fate. Here, Sophocles reveals such a profound proposition to people: fate is so teasing, and people are so small and powerless to grasp themselves in the face of overwhelming fate.

If we look back at Jin Yong's Eight Dragons with such tragic consciousness, we will find that the protagonists Duan Yu, Qiao Feng and Xu Zhu all have Oedipus complex. They are all fighting against the unfortunate fate, but they can't overcome it. In the end, like Oedipus, he was manipulated by an unknown mysterious force in a mysterious, incomprehensible and inevitable way and fell deeper into misfortune.

Jin Yong seems to be telling an ancient and distant suffering caused by a god of fate like Sophocles.

The tragic fate of Duan Yu, Qiao Feng and Xu Zhu in Jin Yong's Eight Dragons fully shows the sharp conflict between man and fate and the ruthless mockery of fate. All three protagonists, like Oedipus, are at the mercy of evil fate and suffer great pain and misfortune.

In a sense, Ba Long's Day is a tragic fable of life, which reflects modern people's thinking about fate and their unknowable confusion in the face of it.

As a popular writer and a self-proclaimed storyteller, Jin Yong himself said, "I just want to tell the story vividly." However, when Jin Yong showed the prototype of Oedipus' tragedy to modern people with inevitable chance and almost doomed absolute in his works, especially in Tianbu, Tianbu has gone far beyond his purpose of telling stories.

Maybe Jin Yong didn't think of the tragedy of Oedipus when he portrayed Duan Yu, Qiao Feng and Xu Zhu, but when he thought about the fate of modern people in his works, he was inevitably immersed in the same confusion and pessimism as Sophocles when he alienated his material world, and when he looked for the root of the tragic fate with this emotion, he naturally activated the prototype in his subconscious.
