At the end of the film, Wuming, Canjian, and King Qin have reached the same level of philosophy.

On the camera side, Wuming and King Qin are confronting. King Qin's original realm is only at the level of self. He has the desire to expand the territory and the feeling of dying for his confidant. After that, the King of Qin threw out his sword and gave it to Wuming, turned around and focused on the word "sword" in the remnant sword, ready to die for his confidant. But when Wuming heard that King Qin had realized the realm of "stop Ge" from Canjian's calligraphy, Wuming also realized it. Wuming understood Canjian, Qin Wang, and the realm represented by the word world. .

In the past, the remnant sword entered the palace and stabbed the whole body and retreated. Although he wanted to persuade King Qin with a light sword, that sword only had the effect of deterrence. The deterrence made King Qin sleepless, and the assassins were rewarded with huge sums of money. boundary. At this time, Wuming understood the reason for Can Jian's failure, and decided to stab this sword, because only stab can kill, and only death can add weight to this sword and achieve the state of "letting".

In the same way, after the old servant showed the yellow flag representing failure, Can Jian's purpose of "stabbing Qin" has been achieved, but such "stabbing Qin" deeply hurt his beloved Feixue, and his words persuaded Feixue to no avail. After that, he chose the same method as Wuming, and added the weight of death to the sword he let out to resolve the hatred in Feixue's heart and let Feixue understand that in Canjian's heart, she was as important as the world. Feixue's suicide is different, Feixue doesn't understand, because Feixue is stubborn in the ethics of a small individual, and wants to avenge his father's death, but now he can't avenge his father's death, and his lover died because of himself, Feixue is in the same Under the logic of , it can only be understood that it was because of himself that the death of Can Jian was caused, and the object of revenge became himself, so he chose to commit suicide.

Throughout the whole story, although Wuming took the initiative to find Canjian and asked to stab Qin, he actually became a practitioner of Canjian's philosophical realm. King Qin was also assimilated by this philosophical realm, and his heart was no longer only the desire for territory and power. After understanding the balance between war and peace, after uniting the six kingdoms, the Great Wall was built, and the world stopped fighting.

But this philosophical realm has been remembered by later generations and named as "hero"

    The picture of this film is really top-notch, and I don't want to miss a shot. The national teacher is worthy of his background in photography, and the color and composition are perfect. It is the world of martial arts in my heart.

Hero quotes

  • Nameless: Good calligraphy.

    Broken Sword: Good swordsmanship.

  • King of Qin: I have just come to a realization! This scroll by Broken Sword contains no secrets of his swordsmanship. What this reveals is his highest ideal. In the first state, man and sword become one and each other. Here, even a blade of grass can be used as a lethal weapon. In the next stage, the sword resides not in the hand but in the heart. Even without a weapon, the warrior can slay his enemy from a hundred paces. But the ultimate ideal is when the sword disappears altogether. The warrior embraces all around him. The desire to kill no longer exists. Only peace remains.
