dressed in coarse cloth and blue clothes, a small dilapidated hat, and a pair of torn cloth shoes. The world is full of troubles, Ning Caichen Kong, who has been reading poetry and books, has a youthful talent and learning, but is useless, so he is ridiculed by the peddler who sells paintings as "high grade, low status". In order to make a living, I had to carry luggage around to collect bills. But even so, he didn't lose the cuteness in his bones. He is naive, pedantic, but also affectionate, positive and optimistic. He often encounters obstacles at the wrong time, but he is not depressed. Even if he encounters murderers and robbers on the road, he can frequently say: This is the world of love, not of swords. world.
She, Nie Xiaoqian, is a ghost who died in a foreign country, a female ghost living in the barren mountains, who specializes in sucking the essence of young men. However, this was not her original intention. Every time she hurt passersby, her heart would be tortured by endless self-blame and grief. She was beautiful and kind, although she was forced by the wicked power of the tree demon grandmother, although all the demons around her were bloodthirsty. However, she still clings to her inner conscience alone and is unique in that filthy and dark world.
The long night is cold, the moonlight is sultry, the pavilion in the water, Xiaoqian dressed in white plays a zither and flicks, and starts to seduce passers-by in an attempt to suck its spirit. Ning Caichen was attracted by the sound of the qin, and when he strolled through the pavilion, when he saw Xiaoqian, he was as fascinated by her peerless appearance as most people.
However, no matter how provocative the beauty is and how she throws her arms into her arms, he is still unmoved by his unrequited love, but just turns around in a panic, searching for white yarn, and sneezing, making Xiaoqian not know where to start. While the two were crying and laughing, Yan Chixia came to interrupt, and Ning Caichen, who didn't know what to do, dragged Xiaoqian and stumbled away for a while. The three of you chased after me. It was a farce: one was struggling to escape, the other was carrying Qin kept asking questions, a scholar, unable to hold a chicken, had to go to block the snake for Yiren, but he was so frightened that he jumped on his feet.
Even though people and ghosts have different paths, she only regards him as the prey, but she has a conscience that cannot be hidden in her heart, watching Ning Caichen feel affection for herself, stop being polite, in order to save herself and overcome fear, she desperately fights with snakes. Fighting, fighting with the demon hunter, her lonely and cold heart after her death was touched for the first time. Finally, when she said goodbye to Ning Caichen, she jumped up the tree and smiled back, which was really heart-warming.
The love between people and ghosts has never been tolerated by the world. Yan Chixia, who takes the responsibility of eliminating demons and defending the way, believes that all demons and ghosts are murderous demons. Before being moved by Ning Caichen's true love, he murdered Xiaoqian again and again, wanting to deal with it quickly. On Xiaoqian's side, the goblins headed by the tree demon's grandma continued to push each other hard, trying to use Xiaoqian's hand to get rid of Ning Caichen. They love so hard and tragic, but love so unforgettable.
I thought that the reason why Ning and Qian's love was so beautiful was because they were in such a dilapidated and troubled world, they couldn't help themselves and had no choice but to choose tragedy. Xiaoqian told Ning Caichen that sometimes people are more terrifying than ghosts, and sometimes ghosts are kinder than people. Yan Chixia also said that the human world is too complicated, but the demons and demons are black and white, and they can live freely. In the human world, there are swordsmen who are greedy and vain, corrupt officials who are obsessed with money, and ants who are oblivious to the interests of their own interests... But there is no trace of humanity. In such an environment, scholars with upright nature are destined to are excluded and marginalized. In the midst of loneliness, he met Xiaoqian, who was in the same lonely mood as himself. He fell in love at first sight, knew each other and stayed with each other...
But Nie Xiaoqian, the unrequited soul in the mountains, has no support, "a soft soul in a thousand miles, and a wandering without support", helping Zhou to abuse is not her wish , wandering between the red and the underworld, seeing countless people, but most of them just want to be happy, only Ning Caichen treats her frankly with a pure heart, and this sincere love from the bottom of her heart is exactly what she is. A lonely and helpless ghost dreamed of it, so for the sake of her lover, she did not care about her own safety, and sacrificed her life many times to protect each other... But after all, they could not live up to the reality and could not reverse the tragic fate. Chinese people advocate the beauty of tragedy. Walking in the fate of tragedy, the beauty of things can be fully displayed, and the love between Xiaoqian and the scholar is even more precious.
In my impression, this is the most classic love movie filmed by Leslie Cheung, and his perfect interpretation with Wang Zuxian made the most unforgettable screen couple in the 1980s. Although the world is different from time to time, things are different, but every time I taste it again, I will still be moved by the picturesque face on the screen, and I am still saddened by this piece of human beings and ghosts, Leslie Cheung, an outlier in the film industry A genius, with his excellent acting skills, he portrayed a poor scholar who was down and unswervingly loyal to his feelings, and Wang Zuxian's performance was even more unparalleled. Her Nie Xiaoqian is elegant and poignant, sad and mournful, but she is charming and self-sufficient, full of demonic energy, and her phoenix eyes are even more captivating, even covering Leslie Cheung's brilliance. On the screen, light blue light and shadow, and the vast fog flew up in a pure white gauze, like a fairy who landed in the mortal world. The role of Nie Xiaoqian also helped Wang Zuxian establish an irreplaceable "Jade Girl" status in the film circle, and became one of the most classic female ghost images in the history of Chinese films.
When it comes to A Chinese Ghost Story, another outstanding character that has to be mentioned is Yan Chixia. A Chinese Ghost Story is a story of love and chivalry. Lovers are the unparalleled love of human beings and ghosts, chivalrous, and there is also a legendary hero, Yan Chixia. Yan Chixia in the movie, with iron sword and beard, is alone in the distance of rivers and lakes, but she is worried about the world. With the belief in justice and blood, it is his duty to maintain justice and slay demons and eliminate demons. He has a clear distinction between right and wrong, and hates evil like hatred. He has become the protector of people like Ning Caichen who also have justice and conscience, and he is also an opponent of corrupt officials and underworld forces.
The sincere relationship between Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian is really touching, but Ning Caichen is just a cowardly scholar. Although he always goes forward regardless of his own life, he will never be able to fight the monsters and monsters. He is also held hostage by the county officials. The real defender is Yan Chixia, who neither corrupt officials nor demons dare to provoke. Although he was burdened by the world, retreated to the barren mountains, and kept saying that he would ignore foreign affairs, but whenever evil forces appeared, he never stayed out of it. He said that he didn't care about Ning Caichen, but not only saved Ning Caichen's life again and again, but also saved Xiaoqian, and tried his best to eliminate the two evil forces of the Millennium Tree Demon and the Black Mountain Old Demon. He is fighting for the morality of the world, and his efforts have nothing to do with his own interests, and some are just to calm his heart that is beating fiercely because of chivalry.
Yan Chixia of Wuma, who sings with sword and sings, is full of pride, and the voice for him outside the movie is another talent in the vocal music world——Huang Zhan, his real Yan Chixia is a real chivalrous person. The song "Dao Dao Dao" is the work that he and Tsui Hark chatted while drinking and chatting. When drinking, he said that death is not worth being sad. He wanted to record a tape, and he laughed a lot at the beginning, and then told everyone not to be sad, but to be happy, and he was going to record it and show it to everyone at his funeral. Lin Qingxia said that every time Huang Zhan is mentioned, he always thinks of his laugh in the ocean. And so do we. We, who also live in reality, may never have such a dashing spirit, such a heroic spirit that laughs at life and death.
The story will always come to an end, the dawn is still to come, people and ghosts have different paths, this is a fact that no one can reverse. Therefore, as soon as the sun rises, Xiao Qian, who is a ghost, can only hide in the urn. "I can't think... I can't see you for the last time, you have to take care!" After going through hardships and tribulations, some lovers are not waiting for their white hair to stay together forever, but they are waiting for Biluo and Huangquan to never see each other, but they can't fall in love with each other. Staying together, this kind of feeling, this kind of feeling, what is the human feeling.
At the end of the movie, Xiaoqian returned to the urn and was reincarnated. Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia rode their horses and whipped around to travel around, and a love between people and ghosts finally came to an end.
In that life, in that life, he met her, read, loved, waited, separated by yin and yang, and now he has repaid this love, many years later, will she still remember that there was a man who lowered his eyebrows for her Bowing down, holding candles for her to talk at night, falling into the water for him frequently, breaking my sleeves and breaking my heart for him...
Life is a dream and a longing; in my dreams... there are faint tears.
