I used to read Ang Lee's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and thought that Yu and Li were a fairytale story. It was later discovered that this was originally about human nature and desire.
Everyone feels at first that they have a lot of choices in their life, only to realize in the end that they don't have a choice.
At the beginning of the film, Yu Xiulian met with Li Mubai who went down the mountain after retreating. The simple and chivalrous manners of the two blinded many people. In fact, in the face of human nature and desire, there is no such thing as a master.
Yu Xiulian appeared, and the word "li and music" in the couplet behind her entered the mirror. The author does not agree with the use of feudal ethics to summarize ancient things.
Yu Xiulian obeys the rules of etiquette. Even though her character is too reserved and self-denying, it cannot be said that she is a shackle of etiquette. It can only be said that Miss Yu is simple. Because she wasn't quite sure of Li Mubai's true thoughts. She is also insecure.
But Li Mubai was more complicated.
Li Mubai came down the mountain to find Yu Xiulian, saying that his epiphany on the mountain was not smooth. He didn't feel happy, just sad and lonely. In fact, I can't stand loneliness.
Li Mubai wanted to give the Qingming Sword to Lord Baylor, retire from the world, and live a "human life" with Yu Xiulian. But please note that at this time, Li Mubai thought that he wanted to retire after saying that Master Jiang Nanhe's revenge was still avenging himself.
When Qingmingjian led out Yu Jiaolong, Li Mubai was chasing after him, and his face-slap speed was faster than Qingmingjian.
Interestingly, when Yu Jiaolong came to return the Qingming Sword, Li Mubai was stirring the water for a while. After all, the eldest lady in the boudoir is not only talented in martial arts (even more outstanding than Yu Xiulian), but also has an untamed strength. This completely inspired Li Mubai's desire to conquer as a man.
If you just appreciate it, just look at it from a distance. Why bother holding on to it.
Of course, this could not be hidden from Yu Xiulian's eyes. So the conversation she had with Li Mubai in the courtyard that night was very interesting:
Li Mubai said that the Jade lady who stole the sword is very talented, but her understanding of martial arts is not the right way.
Yu Xiulian immediately said that if she came to return the sword, this matter would be over. The implication: You are meddling. In order to convince Li Mubai, Miss Yu came up with an argument,
Miss Yu is about to get married. Do you Wudang accept female disciples? Even if you Wudang accepted a woman, her husband, Hanlin, would not agree.
Miss Yu was only about to pierce Li Mubai's panties. Who knew that Li Mubai would still be unrelenting, saying Xiulian, be patient.
It was clear that Li Mubai felt that he still had a choice. I like Yu Jiaolong, but I am not sure that I can conquer this dragon, so I still hang Miss Yu.

Yu Jiaolong is much cuter.
When he was young, he recognized the old fox as a teacher and learned Wudang Kungfu. The old fox gave her a dream in the arena
Yu Jiaolong met Luo Xiaohu in the desert, and Luo Xiaohu gave her a story of a free world and stars. But Xiaohu was too simple, he told her that he could not give her a real freedom now. Because your official father will trouble me.
Yu Jiaolong knew what kind of person his father was, just as Lord Baylor said to her nine-door admiral's father, don't be too snobbish, and stare directly at the dignitaries in the capital. Pay attention to the contacts in the next arena.
If one day Yu Jiaolong found out that she could defeat the teacher, the blue-eyed fox, she began to be afraid, she said that she could not see the edge of heaven and earth.
Then in the life in the palace, Yu Jiaolong will soon be able to see the edge of heaven and earth - marry the stupid son of the imperial family, and live a life of suffocation.
Yu Jiaolong's spiritual belief is only the dream of Jianghu. She thought that all corners of the world were freedom. Where do you know that Jianghu is much more greasy than you imagined.
Yu Jiaolong didn't steal the Qingming Sword out of curiosity or mischief. She has an element of anger with Yu Xiulian - you veterans in the rivers and lakes think that Yu Jiaolong is a fool, so I will let you know what "newborn calves are not afraid of tigers".
However, stealing the sword was not necessarily just her anger and want to prove her behavior. This has nothing to do with her Jianghu plan.
Because, Yu Jiaolong's escape from marriage is bound to happen. Regardless of whether Luo Xiaohu appeared or not.
At this time, she still thought she had a choice. Even when the two paths of Jia and Luo Xiaohu couldn't work, she thought that Jianghu was liberation.
Yu Jiaolong played invincible players all over the world on the rivers and lakes, and experienced "invincible, how lonely it is". But where are the rivers and lakes, in the words of Jet Li: After a person becomes famous in the rivers and lakes, he must be a man with his tail between his tails. This is by no means Yu Jiaolong's style. She really thought that she came out with a righteousness.
But the world was so big that when there was really no place for Xiaolong, she ran to find Yu Xiulian. At this time, Yu Xiulian was eager for Li Mubai to fulfill her promise. The two finally made some progress - this night, Li Mubai was going to rest in Yu Xiulian's guard.
Yu Jiaolong appeared. This innocent girl does not know that she has destroyed the good things of others. Or, she didn't care about it at all, she came for Qingmingjian.
The white rabbit who was originally wronged Baba still pretended to be good. As soon as they heard that they had placed Luo Xiaohu on Wudang Mountain, Yu Jiaolong turned his face on the spot.
On the one hand, what Yu Jiaolong wanted was freedom, and no one was allowed to interfere with her. She couldn't accept the possibility of being manipulated.
On the one hand, she doesn't like Wudang Mountain, and naturally, the prejudice (strictly speaking, not necessarily prejudice) instilled by her teacher, the blue-eyed fox. In other words, Yu Jiaolong has heard the good side of Jianghu, and also knows a thing or two about the hypocrisy and lewdness of Taoism.
So Yu Xiulian and Yu Jiaolong fought for the second time, and this time they fought harder. Yu Jiaolong was forced to the brink of collapse, she said, "I will recognize the sword and not the person from now on." This guy doesn't believe in human nature.

At this time, Li Mubai would not let go of the opportunity to take advantage of it. The fight between the two in the bamboo forest was exactly the same as the fight on horseback when Yu Jiaolong met Luo Xiaohu in the desert - it was completely flirtatious.
There is provocation, desire, repression, and playfulness. In this bamboo forest play, Li Mubai was still a person who accepted apprentices from the beginning. The ancient temple left room for you in that day, because he wanted to see your true heart. Yu Jiaolong replied in one sentence:
How can you old rivers and lakes see your true heart?
Li Mubai continued her routine, but was torn apart by Yu Jiaolong's words: You Wudang are basically taverns and prostitutes, I don't care. Yu Jiaolong was born in the official family, and what she wanted was a clean, decent and dignified life. It's definitely not a twisted life committed to others.
After listening to Li Mubai, he didn't even bother to play the character design, so he simply threw away the Qingming sword. Who knew that Yu Jiaolong didn't need to think about it, and jumped off the cliff to chase the "sword" decisively.

The blue-eyed fox has seen all kinds of morals and appearances of people in the rivers and lakes. She said to Li Mubai, "Your master looks down on women too much, and he didn't pass on his kung fu to me when he entered the house.
With such an entrainment of privacy, the blue-eyed fox mainly revealed that the two of you, master and apprentice, are pretending to be a breeze, not all with a lustful heart.
It's a pity that this blue-eyed fox is not naturally talented enough. She is determined to practice the stolen Wudang according to the figure and Yu Jiaolong. However, Yu Jiaolong could defeat her, so she hated Yu Jiaolong and felt that a child had such a scheming. Don't forget that Yu Jiaolong is an eldest young lady raised in a deep boudoir. She is capable of both writing and martial arts, and the resources she possesses are by no means accessible to a wild way like a blue-eyed fox.
So it is normal for a blue-eyed fox to be extreme. Because God does not reward her with food. Even self-taught things like this, Yu Jiaolong can learn without a teacher, she can only rely on stealing, and even stealing is stolen, she has only learned a little.
She vented her "hate" of this information and channel gap on Yu Jiaolong. Kill her if she doesn't learn. It only hurt the innocent and killed Li Mubai.

Before Li Mubai died, he realized that he had no choice. If you hadn't dipped into the muddy waters and greedy for the glass of Yu Jiaolong, now Yu Xiulian and Yu Xiulian would have experienced the fireworks in the world.
Although he said a very romantic love sentence before his death:
I wasted my life. I want to say to you in this tone: I have always loved you. I'd rather linger beside you, be a wild ghost for seven days, follow you, even to the darkest places. My love will not make me a lonely soul lost forever.
But it was only when his life came to an end that he had no choice, and he realized that Yu Xiulian was real to him.
The same is true for Yu Jiaolong. She thought she had a choice, and finally found out that what Xiaohu gave her was the best. But at that time, she hadn't seen the real arena.
She has fought and worked hard, and finally found that nowhere can escape the desires and designs of others. By the time she understood what caution was and what caution was, there was nowhere to go.
She said, Xiaohu make a wish. Xiaohu said, go back to Xinjiang together. Yu Jiaolong jumped off the cliff, took his dream, and went.
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is a bit of a road movie. It is a tragedy, taking away countless disillusioned dreams.
