Li Yunlong comes from a peasant family. How can he have such a loud name?

In "Bright Sword", we all know the background of Li Yunlong. He comes from a village in Dabie Mountain. His family has been farming for generations and has never read any books. As a child, he learned to weave baskets from an old weaver in the village. Li Yunlong took part in the revolution in 1927 because he didn't have enough to eat all the year round, and happened to meet a jute riot. Although Li Yunlong can't read, when he became a soldier, his ability to direct the war gradually emerged. Within two years, he became the leader of the Red Army.

According to this statement, Li Yunlong's family must be poor, and it is impossible for his parents and brothers to receive cultural education. Moreover, in the society at that time, warlord melee was everywhere, and the people didn't even have enough to eat. How many people could learn knowledge and culture? It's good to go to a private school for a year or two at most. Then some people will ask, Li Yunlong's family background is so poor, how can his parents give him such a domineering and loud name?

As we all know, Li Yunlong's name can be said to be very level and quite domineering. It is also a blessing for Li Yunlong to have such a resounding name. But there are contradictions in this way, because the society at that time was feudal and superstitious. At that time, people thought it would be easy to raise children by giving them an ugly name. Therefore, in rural areas all over the country, the names of big families are like this, such as Zi, Dog Egg or Li, Li Gou Le Feng and so on. So, why is it that when everyone takes such an ugly name, only Li Yunlong is different?

First of all, it has something to do with some rural customs. Many rural people think that giving their children a lucky name will bring good luck to their families in the future, so Li Yunlong's family must find a fortune teller to name him. Moreover, the word "Yunlong" can also interpret the expectations of the Li family for him, hoping that he will become the dragon in the clouds in the future. Moreover, in some mountainous areas, there is a custom of naming children according to their seniority. In some family genealogies, it has been stipulated what names to give to children in the future, and Li Yunlong is likely to rank among the "cloud" generation. According to this statement, it is reasonable for Li to give him such a name.

Secondly, the Li family is a farmer who lives by farming. With such a precious son, they don't know what to name him. So he went to ask a local educated gentleman to give him a name, such as a teacher in a private school or an old scholar in the previous dynasty. Even Li Yunlong himself mentioned that he studied in a private school for two days. It can be seen that nine times out of ten, the old gentleman won the name.

In short, due to the above factors, Li Yunlong has a resounding name. If it weren't for the current political turmoil and the lack of food, Li Yunlong might still weave baskets in a small mountain village in Dabie Mountain decades later, and he spent his life in such a dull day. In the original work, when Li Yunlong was treated unfairly, he once said, "If I had known, I would not have taken part in the revolution. Maybe this day would have been better!" Facts have proved that if Li Yunlong really did this, at least it wouldn't end up in such a miserable situation.
