But compared with another less well-known Ye Erniang, they are a little pale in comparison. Because, Ye Erniang killed more people than them. ?
It can be said that Ye Erniang is the most ferocious person in Jin Yong's martial arts novels, and she deserves to be the devil wears Prada. ?
Why do you say that? Because you can find evidence from "Dragon". ?
▲ "Tianlong Babu" is the martial arts masterpiece of the famous writer Jin Yong. The theme of the book is "All human beings are evil", and the style of the work is magnificent and tragic. It is an epic masterpiece with strong human nature and tragic color.
When Ye Erniang first appeared in the novel, he was holding a two or three-year-old boy in his arms (a child admired by Zuo Zi, the head of Infinite Sword Dongzong). Because the child kept crying, Yue Lao was upset and took the child away. During the struggle, Yue Laosan said to Ye Erniang: "You have to kill a baby every day, and you are so shameless!" It can be seen from this sentence that Ye Erniang's behavior of killing a child every day has reached the point where Yue Lao, who is also a villain, is despised and extremely cruel. ?
If Yue Laosan's words are not convincing enough, Zuo Zaixin's narrative is convincing enough: "He once heard that the woman who ranks second among the' four villains' grabs a baby to play with every morning and kills it at night. I'm afraid Ye Sanniang and Ye Erniang are sister-in-law, with average personalities. That's too bad. " ?
Therefore, it is not groundless for Ye Erniang to kill a child every day. If Ye Erniang really kills one child every day, she will kill more than 360 children a year. Even if Mei Chaofeng and Li Mochou kill innocent people again, I'm afraid they can't keep up with this appalling figure. What's more, this figure is only one year. You know, Ye Erniang has been killing people for 24 years. What is the concept of 24 years? If we calculate by 365 days a year, then 24 years is 365X24=8760. Is this picture horrible and bloody? This is just the number of children. If you add the adults she killed, the number will be higher. ?
Seeing this, some readers may have questions: "Where did you know that she killed for 24 years, and what was the basis?" According to Qiao Feng Yanyun 18 riding in Shaoshi Mountain, Ye Erniang recognized Xu Zhu's mother and son by marking. Ye Erniang once said something like this to Xu Zhu: "Son, you are twenty-four years old now. In the past twenty-four years, I have been thinking about you day and night. I am angry that people have sons, but my own son has been stolen by a damn thief. I ... I had to steal someone else's son. But ... but ... how can someone else's son be better than his own? " From this passage, we can clearly see that Ye Erniang has been stealing other people's children and killing so many children for 24 years, which is really justified. ?

Ye Erniang was heartbroken. Because Xiao Yuanshan stole his own child, he became obsessed with remembering the child and played with the child who killed others. Although everything has its reasons and difficulties, people can sympathize with it, but their crimes are unforgivable. If you lose a child, you think everyone in the world is guilty; If you lose your son, you won't allow everyone to have a son. Its psychology shows how distorted and abnormal it is, and there is a kind of revenge psychology that you can't be alone if I don't have a son. This kind of revenge for the loss of a child is far more harmful to society than Mei Chaofeng's misguided practice of Nine Yin Zhen Jing, and Li Mochou hates all men in the world because of love. Because Mei and Li are vicious, but their reason is still there, and they will not kill people easily. ?
Ye Erniang, on the other hand, has been in a state of confusion and loss of children. The seeds of hatred have already penetrated into the bone marrow, so his words and deeds are intentionally or unintentionally mixed with crazy revenge. Killing a child every day has become the only support for her to live. If she hasn't found Xu Zhu, I believe the revenge of the killing will last until the moment of her death. This assumption is really chilling. Fortunately, after 24 years of inhuman life, she finally found her son. Sadly, until her death, she never repented of her heinous crimes, which is really outrageous. ?
Losing a child triggered a bloody case for 24 years and became the bloodiest demon. This is many times more terrible than the "bloody case" caused by a steamed bread and the recent incident of Ali grabbing moon cakes. The end of the bloody case is also lamentable. Xuan Ci, the abbot of Shaolin Temple (Ye Erniang's lover), died by cutting off the meridians, Ye Erniang committed suicide, and Xu Zhu, who had just found her parents, became an orphan again. When it really comes to the theme of "Eight Dragons", all beings are suffering and everything is empty. ?

In the face of Ye Erniang's heinous crimes, should we sympathize with and forgive her? If we are moved by compassion, how should we face those innocent children and families? If we hate her guts, she was originally a kind ordinary girl, and it was only the loss of her child that caused such a tragedy. Therefore, how to evaluate Ye Erniang, sympathy or hatred, everyone stands from different angles, and everyone will have different views from different positions. This is like commenting on the article "Worm of Prosperity" which is popular on the Internet recently. Everyone has his own opinion, there is no right or wrong. ?
Let's go back to Ye Erniang. Imagine, if Ye Erniang knew from the beginning that Xiao Yuanshan had stolen her child, maybe Ye Erniang's crime would be much smaller, or even zero, because she already knew who had stolen her child, so she would only do one thing, and that was to hunt down the murderer. In addition, she is a kind girl, based on the principle of retribution for wrongs, even if Xiao Yuanshan can't be tracked, I believe she won't hurt innocent people again. ?
The reason why she killed the innocent was that the child was stolen, but she didn't know who the murderer was. If you don't know who the murderer is, you can't track the whereabouts of the child. If you can't trace the whereabouts of your child, it's equivalent to being separated from your child in this life. Anger and pain, nowhere to vent their emotions, do not do anything wrong. ?
Don't say that Ye Erniang didn't know who the enemy was, so he did such evil deeds. Even though she knows who hurt her child, a girl like Ying Gu still has a grudge. It was Qiu who hurt his children. It was himself who killed the child with a dagger, but he still put the blame on Duan Huangye. Not only forced Duan Huangye to become a monk, but even borrowed Ouyang Feng's hand to extricate himself, which was a bit importunate. I had an affair before, and I had a baby with Zhou. Which emperor can bear not to kill you? Besides, I was going to save your child, but I just saw your blatant kindness (the token of Yuanyang is on the child's chest), and I was angry but just stood by. Why should others swallow the bitter fruit you have caused you? Violent and impatient, Yin Zhi's vicious temperament is revealed, with a deep and vicious swing ruler. ?

If Ye Erniang is an English aunt, according to her original kind nature, she will not kill her children cruelly, nor will she put her resentment into action to kill Duan Huangye. After all, she made the mistake first. She will go to Qiu to avenge her children and even spend the rest of her life confessing her past. ?
If Yinggu is Ye Erniang, with her violent, impatient and evil nature, she may do more evil than Ye Erniang. After all, a person who dares to kill his own child (who was seriously injured at that time) is so cruel. ?
Ye Erniang's tragedy is caused by many factors. We can mourn its misfortune, but we should also condemn its evil deeds. After all, no amount of hatred and pain can hurt innocent people, even their own children. If you care about your heart, if you cherish life, if you fear life, then tragic events will be reduced a lot, and then violent events will be reduced a lot. ?
The final conclusion is a Buddhist exhortation commonly used by Tang Priest: "Sweeping the floor may hurt the life of the worm, and cherish the moth gauze lamp." May we all be in awe, even if we treat a weak ant.
