Jin Yong Legend of the Condor Heroes Chapter 4

[mekare]

Lots of Mongol-Jin politics. Where the heck is Ban Xiruo? I really liked getting more of an insight into the different tribes and their internal problems. I would love to meet some women even more (slave dancers do not count).

Oho, the Seven appear! Haha it was really funny how they behaved when they finally found Guo Jing (I laughed when he was asked for his mother‘s name and said "Mama”. Perfect.) And a tiny bit of knowledge about Li Ping not being educated enough to know how to write her husband‘s name. I wonder if Ban Xiruo is the same?

I really like that Guo Jing isn‘t clever and quick. I‘m looking forward to his development, and Nan Xiren seems to agree with me.

The fight against Mei Chaofeng and Chen Xuanfeng was really atmospheric and gripping (again, I‘m looking forward to the adaptations). And Guo Jing actually managing to kill one of them was surprising.

What did you think?

One thing I'm curious about - they keep TELLING us that Guo Jing isn't clever or quick, but I'm not actually sure he's not? I feel like I need to read more about him actually in action.

Ban Xiruo's father is a teacher, so she has more education than Li Ping.

Spoiler:

She will appear in chapter 7

I also like that Guo Jing isn't a natural genius.
