Text / Yang Daxia
Dunhuang desert, thousands of miles of yellow sand, no grass.
On this vast land of smoke and dust like the sea, the howling north wind has been its only vivid footnote for thousands of years; Lonely not to go.
It turns out that the desert is also a river and lake.
Where there are rivers and lakes, there will be liveliness, there will be fighting, and there will be people; where there are people, there will be knights and women.
Here, there is a cold-faced woman named Qiu Moyan, who rescued Zhongliang with a sword in his hand.
Here, there is a pungent woman named Jin Xiangyu, who imitated Mengzhou Sun Erniang and opened a black shop.
This black shop is called "Dragon Gate Inn".
One evening, two women met at the Dragon Inn.
Under the twilight night, a lamp is like a bean.
Outside the lights, darkness enveloped the inn; the piercing north wind slammed into all corners of the inn, like a soul that would not rest.
Under the lights, the two women looked at each other, each with their own thoughts.
It was about a man's tender feelings.
Jade inlaid with gold: jade sighs in the box, gold hairpin is buried in the soil
"After eating, let's sit on the kang, the girls in the desert love Brother Zhuang..."
A tender and unrestrained Gansu folk tune drifts in the yellow sand that covers the sky and the sun.
Unrestrained ballads, rough sand and stones, this is the portrayal of the temperament of gold inlaid jade.
For the sake of money, she can show off her looks, kill people, and make buns and vegetables from the killed people and sell them to customers.
For the poor or stingy past merchants, she showed no face, greeted her father openly, greeted her mother silently, and slapped each other twice when she was in a hurry.
She is like the weather in the desert, and her temperament is inexorable: "If I want to, I can do it with 100 percent. If I don't want it, even if a hundred knives are put on my neck, it is not enough."
She prides herself on her beauty, looks down on men in the world, and can easily disguise women: "Anyone who doesn't look at me positively is not a man."
She is like a beautiful stone that has no morals or feelings and can only be seen but not touched.
However, the moment she met Zhou Huai'an, flowers bloomed on this hard rock.
Zhou Huai'an asked her, "How can I get to the Dragon Gate Inn?"
She said charmingly: "Dragon Gate Inn is on me."
Zhou Huai'an looked at her in the eye, and the man said, "This person must be a woman, and the person who looked at you wrongly must not be a man."
"This man is different," she said.
As soon as she met Zhou Huai'an, all her words became provocative love words, not a single swear word.
Zhou Huai'an wanted to use one thousand taels of silver to buy a secret path from her, and she said:
"I want money and people too."
She knew that Zhou Huai'an's so-called "wedding marriage" was just to take advantage of her, but she was still willing to take this deception as an ideal. She took Zhou Huai'an's flute—she knew that it was Qiu Moyan's favorite thing, and she said, "This is a dowry."
It is estimated that she herself did not expect that she, who is ruthless and carefree, will one day long for love and the love of a man.
She thought that she was like the sand of this desert and the wind of the desert, mercilessly sweeping every invading stranger.
However, even in the north wind in the desert, there are times when the wind stops.
When the wind stops and the scattered dust falls, the sky will become clean and clear, like pure water without any impurities.
That clear water is like a heart that she has never seen before; that heart is like her name "Golden Inlaid Jade"——
The jade sighed in the box, and the golden hairpin was buried in the soil.
When the jade box was opened and the golden hairpin was seen again, her tender feelings could no longer be hidden.
But to be tempted by a man who has a heart and is more affectionate than Jin Jian, it is doomed that her wishful thinking will not come to fruition. No matter how devoted the two sides are in the play of their "wedding marriage", it can only be that she can't hide her sincerity, and he can't act enthusiastically. Zhou Huai'an can only be an unprecedented temptation for gold inlaid jade; most of the results of chasing temptation can only end in vain.
After Qiu Moyan was injured, Jin Xiangyu understood Zhou Huai'an's eyes looking at Qiu Moyan-the eyes were full of worry and concern, but it had nothing to do with her.
Her tenderness finally had nowhere to confess.
Gold inlaid jade, after all, can only be like her name, in the jade lock box, gold is buried in the soil.
But her infatuation with Zhou Huai'an had reached the point where she couldn't help herself. As an emotional loser, although she couldn't congratulate Zhou Huai'an, she couldn't bear to hurt him either.
If that's the case, let him do it.
In the contest with Dongchang, she braved the swirling arrows to retrieve the flute that she had left behind.
She returned the flute to Qiu Moyan: "I don't want anything given by others."
She took Zhou Huaian and a group of people into the secret passage. She didn't get his money, and she was going to send him away.
She complained that Zhou Huai'an "only cared about herself and didn't think about others", but when Cao Shaoqin of Dongchang trapped Zhou Huai'an, she did not hesitate to run back with Qiu Moyan to help Zhou Huai'an.
Yes, she can't get this man anymore; but in front of Qiu Moyan, she is not willing to let her love be less than Qiu Moyan's.
Yes, she can't get this man's love either; but that doesn't stop her from loving him, helping him with what she can, and even sacrificing her life.
The desert may be ruthless, but its singleness and purity, its desolate scenery, cannot be replaced by any oasis or downtown.
A woman in the desert may be indifferent, but her passion for love and tenderness rooted in the depths of her heart cannot be destroyed by even the king of heaven.
After Qiu Moyan died, Zhou Huaian was ready to leave this sad place.
Jin Xiangyu asked her, "Will you go back to the Dragon Gate Inn again?"
Zhou Huai'an said: "When the next group of guests arrives, you may have forgotten me as a passer-by."
After Zhou Huai'an left, Jin Xiangyu returned to the Dragon Gate Inn.
Instead of going in, she burned it with a fire.
In the firelight, she showed a smile, and she said to the Tartar man, "Let's leave this ruthless place, go and find Zhou Huaian!"
The piece of jade finally left the box; the golden hairpin finally saw the light of day again.
That touch of tenderness, and finally there is nowhere to put it——
Even if she catches up to the ends of the earth, she will entangle that person.
Endless death, no regrets.
Qiu Moyan: Don't complain about your children's love in troubled times, and children's love in troubled times is deeper
The role of Qiu Moyan was played by Lin Qingxia.
The public's impression of Brigitte Lin's costumes is basically impossible to escape from the words handsome, cool, unrestrained, and rivers and lakes.
Therefore, when Qiu Moyan appeared on the stage, it was difficult for people not to think of characters such as Dongfang Invincible and Murong Yan.
Indeed, Brigitte Lin also showed Qiu Moyan's cool and riverside side to the fullest.
In formulating a plan to save the children of the Yang family, Qiu Moyan was calm, meticulous, and unhurried.
To assassinate Cao Shaoqin, she did not say a word, but drew her sword and stabbed.
In the face of Jin Xiangyu's provocation, the confrontation at Dongchang, and the questioning of thousands of households at the border, she did not change her face, and others could not understand her city.
She was even injured by random arrows, sweating profusely from the pain, she also gritted her teeth and stayed calm in the face of danger, with the righteousness of saving the orphan.
She holds a "child-mother sword", that is, the sword of the sword.
She is also a gentleman among gentlemen, a stern chivalrous person, and a chivalrous woman who takes the responsibility of helping the society as her mission.
However, when she was in the inn and saw Zhou Huai'an rushing to appear in front of her covered in dust, she smiled; those about gentlemen, chivalrous men, chengfu, stern armaments and defenses were all unloaded in an instant. Lose--
Because she is also a woman.
Is there any woman who doesn't show joy when she sees the person she loves?
Is there any woman who doesn't want to have a peaceful and tranquil love?
But this is an unbearable luxury for women in troubled times.
In troubled times, someone has to stand up and provoke the heavy responsibility of pacifying the war; someone has to sacrifice their own happiness in exchange for the happiness of thousands of people.
A part of this kind of person is the chivalrous person in the rivers and lakes; a part of the chivalrous person is the female chivalrous person.
The heroine is an admirable title and a high honor. The world always thinks that even if the heroines bleed and die, they won't say a word, but they don't see a moment of weakness in their hearts.
Qiu Moyan is such an unfortunate character who cannot rely on tenderness and shoulders the righteousness of the common people.
However, she was lucky again. She admired Zhou Huaian, who was born in a famous family, and Zhou Huaian happened to like her too.
In the bloody and chaotic world, she finally found a peaceful harbor where she could live.
However, the tranquility that belonged to them was so short, too short to say a word.
Between the two of them, there is always the intervention of a "third party" with gold inlaid jade, there are always injuries and complaints from insiders, there are always harassment by thousands of households at the border, there is always the pursuit of Dongchang, and there is always one after another. Unfinished missions, waiting for them to complete.
Therefore, in a rare peaceful scene, Zhou Huaian sighed: "When can we live a peaceful life?"
Qiu Moyan didn't answer. The chivalrous person is now unaware of the fate of exile in the past, and this answer is doomed to be unsolved.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the Dongchang army to approach. In order to let the other righteous men lead the descendants of Yangmen to escape, they prepared to take risks to drag the Dongchang.
At that time, Zhou Huaian took Qiu Moyan's flute: "Give it to me."
She looked at Zhou Huai'an. She knew that this was a dangerous move, and in this move, "give it to me" was Zhou Huaian's most affectionate heart.
However, she did not expect that in order to deceive the secret way, Zhou Huaian would agree to marry Jin Xiangyu.
All the righteous people questioned Zhou Huai'an's actions. Qiu Moyan only said one sentence: "Just do what he wants."
The righteous man said to Zhou Huai'an, "Miss Qiu can't understand you either."
But is she really clueless?
When Zhou Huai'an cheated on the secret passage in the bridal chamber, Qiu Moyan kept the wine downstairs by himself in order not to let the people from Dongchang go up.
She raised a jar of wine and poured it into her mouth; two lines of tears flowed from the corner of her eyes.
She understands all of Zhou Huai'an's thoughts.
She took care of the overall situation and completely left to Zhou Huai'an; in order to save the orphan and go well, she went on her own with the entire Dongchang Zhou Xuan.
She is a veritable chivalrous person; however, she is also a woman, and she also has her own tender feelings.
She still had a lot of things to tell Zhou Huai'an before she watched Zhou Huai'an marry Jin Xiangyu. She was reluctant, but what could she be reluctant to do?
She has too many things on her back. In this troubled world, she can't express her love for her children as boldly as Jin Xiangyu. The realm of Jin Xiangyu is only this desert; but she controls the future of the entire Ming Dynasty. .
Putting all her feelings into wine and tears, this is her most helpless, heaviest, and most heartbreaking fulfillment as a chivalrous warrior, and it is also her most affectionate choice as a woman——
In troubled times, don't complain about the love of children, and the love of children in troubled times is deeper.
Let this affection melt into silent wine and tears.
But she still didn't stop Dongchang's arrogance, and a fight destroyed Zhou Huai'an and Jin Xiangyu's wedding night.
When Qiu Moyan hit the arrow, she finally waited for Zhou Huai'an's confession: "There is nothing outside of me that is more than the love at the moment."
Because of this sentence, when everyone fell into quicksand at the end, she pushed Zhou Huai'an out with all her might, and buried herself in the sand, too late to say goodbye.
In fact, even if Zhou Huai'an didn't say this first and last confession, she would choose to sacrifice herself without hesitation to save Zhou Huai'an, because—
She is "Mo Yan"!
She has been silent all her life, but the tenderness of her unspoken children is a pride that gold inlaid jade cannot take away.
famous year
In "New Dragon Gate Inn", the most classic line is Zhou Huaian's saying:
"Toast to this nameless year."
But in the two women in the movie, the importance of having a name and a surname is vividly reflected:
The gold inlaid with jade is the gold unearthed, the jade that came out of the box, and nothing can obscure her brilliance.
Qiu Moyan cherishes words like gold, and is taciturn. In his short life, there are only a few words.
Jin Xiangyu is the elf of the desert and unrestrained; the wild sand and the fierce north wind are the footnotes of her pungent character.
Qiu Moyan is a loyal and good person in Jianghu, and he is restrained; Qianli Jiugu and the eunuch chase and kill, don't ask her to say more.
Their tenderness is also very different because of their names:
The tenderness of gold inlaid jade is daring to love and hate, but also to love and sex.
Qiu Moyan's tenderness is silent, but silence is better than sound.
They relaxed and moved, and they used their distinct personalities and different attitudes towards love to make that nameless year remember them with a name and a surname.
Twenty-eight years have passed, and the Longmen Inn has long since been wiped out in the fire.
In the desert, wave after wave of passers-by have been sent away, and generations of grievances and grievances have been staged in the rivers and lakes.
However, it is difficult to have such two women with names and surnames:
Their laughter, their sadness, their tears, and their tenderness, after so many years, are still fresh in our memory.
"Zhijun's immortal bones have no cold and heat, and they meet in a thousand years."
Not to mention that there are many disasters in beauty, the so-called beauty is beauty, it is tempting, it is the tenderness and deep affection in the ruthless desert and bloody rivers and lakes.
