-the "defects" of the gods

Song Wu, a tiger hero, has become a huge business card and a resounding brand. Tiger is the fiercest beast in nature, known as the king of beasts. A mortal can kill a tiger with his bare hands. What power is this? In the era of cold weapons, this is the highest praise and reverence for a person's martial arts power. The state and county governments rushed to preach, and the people on earth were like thunder. Song Wu, Jin Shengtan's favorite hero, has the highest evaluation in Water Margin. "However, this 160 strong person is not superior to Song Wu. But what was Song Wu like? You said:' Song Wu, heaven and man are also.' Sensation between Heaven and Man is endowed with Lu Da's breadth, Lin Chong's poison, Yang Zhi's uprightness, Chai Jin's kindness and quickness, jy's frankness, Wu Yong's success, Huarong Road's elegance, Lu Junyi's greatness and Shi Xiu's vigilance. Is it inappropriate to say the first person? "

This hero who is most famous for his martial arts in the Water Margin (Song Jiang is famous not for his martial arts, but for charity and wealth) appeared at the end of chapter 2 1 of this book. Of course, in his heyday, he killed a white-fronted tiger in Jingyanggang with his bare hands. Although he had a whistle stick in his hand, we saw the whole process of killing the tiger and found that the whistle stick only played a role. And I drank 18 bowls of white wine on Jingyanggang, which is called "three bowls are not on duty". By the way, I ate a few pounds of cooked beef that heroes must order, and I was satisfied with the rivers and lakes, eating meat in large pieces and drinking in large bowls. I have achieved the greatest "great achievements" in my personal struggle with the harsh nature, and my personal value has been maximized. From then on, Song Wu, the tiger hero, became famous, and everyone in the Jianghu knew him and made some achievements. "Who fights with the dragon?" Song Wu is like a treasure knife, only those who need to know him can use it. Where is his sword? Most capable people have a temper, and most people with divine power don't understand amorous feelings. Divinity and magic are just two sides of the same coin. Only when God breaks his arms can he really return to the earth, and heaven can't match the earth. Let's open the text, read the extraordinary story of Song Wu carefully, and restore what I thought was Song Wu in this story.

Song Wu's life can be said to be quite colorful. Typical events include becoming sworn friends with Song Jiang, fighting tigers and brothers, blood spattering in Yuanyang Building, falling grass in Erlong Mountain, etc. Many things have been done earth-shattering. There are too many people who judge some big ostentation and extravagance, so I won't focus on it. Here, we will improve our understanding of Song Wu from several details.

First, unsociable.

Song Wu first appeared in the novel when he met Song Jiang. The meeting place was at Chai Jin's house, and they almost got into a fight, not that kind of special hero. The following is Zhuang Ke's evaluation of Song Wu: When Song Wugang came to Chai Jin, it was generally accepted by everyone; After that, he was in the village, but he was drunk and strong-willed, so the guests in the village didn't care about anything, so they had to be beaten. So none of the Zhuang people in Manzhuang said he was good. Everyone hated him, so they all went to see Chai Jin and told him that many things were wrong. Chai Jin didn't catch him, but he only treated him slowly. From this passage, we can probably read some information: Song Wu is not very likable, and when he is drunk, he will make trouble, and he is arrogant, unique and different from ordinary people. So is this a problem of Song Wu or Zhuang Ke? Personally, I think there are both. In Song Wu's view, Song Wu did have personality defects. He is unsociable and straightforward and impulsive. He often solves problems with his fists. In Zhuangke's view, many diners are freeloaders, and their cultural and moral qualities may be generally low, and most of them are villains. They are not real heroes, and the mode is not very high, so they are different from Song Wu. Apart from Song Wu's own problems, I personally think this is a world where little people are in power. They can't understand the big man's heart. They can't see the distinctive temperament of a "big shot" like Song Wu, not just for them? However, Chai Jin, the "manor owner", was limited by himself and could not see the uniqueness of Song Wu. The temper and pattern of the immortals are beyond ordinary people's understanding. Song Wu, we can call him a man of style. That's what a man with style does. He went his own way, completely or partially ignoring the logic of ordinary people. This way, perhaps without reflection, is just the emergence of life instinct in a certain situation. We can't look at Song Wu in the way of ordinary people's thinking, and Zhuang Ke constitutes the external environment for Song Wu's existence. They can't understand Song Wu. Those of us who are bound by tradition and reality are ordinary people and can't see the extraordinary side of Song Wu. People with style like Song Wu actually have a fatal temptation to readers, but we know that in real life. So his temperament is not only the embodiment of style, but also his shortcoming in the eyes of ordinary people. It doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong, it just depends on which angle you and I stand on.

Second, I don't understand amorous feelings.

Read such a story:

There is an old monk who wants to find a suitable person to inherit the mantle. It's a pity that people in the world are so polluted by desire that he can't find a clean person. Finally, he went to an orphanage to adopt a baby, took him up the mountain to be a young monk, taught him everything, and let him grow naturally. When the young monk came of age, he knew nothing. One day, the old monk went down the mountain, and it happened that one of his Taoist friends came up to see him. When he saw that the young monk didn't even understand the etiquette of interacting with people, he taught him how to ask questions, salute and so on. When the old monk came back, he saw that the young monk actually knew these customs, and he sighed with anger: Alas! After more than ten years of hard work, a child as pure as a blank sheet of paper was accidentally taught by that guy! The old monk thought that since he had learned the ceremony, he might as well take him down the mountain to see the world. Before going down the mountain, I especially reminded the young monk in the countryside to be careful of an animal called tiger. It looks like you and me, with long hair and sideburns on its head. Get out of the way when you see this kind of thing, or you will eat people. Then the master and apprentice went down the mountain and walked around the city. Back to the mountain, the old monk asked, "What is the cutest thing under the mountain?" The little monk said, "Tigers are the cutest."

Men with normal nature like women. Song Wu looks normal, but he is more powerful than ordinary people. He fully meets the standards of Dahan, and should like women. However, we find that sometimes women are a scourge and a tiger to men, such as Pan Jinlian in the novel "Confrontation with Song Wu". Pan Jinlian appeared in this situation: in Qinghe County, there was a big family with a maid, whose maiden name was Pan, and she was in her twenties, and she was quite beautiful. Women with feet are men's favorite. In modern terms, they are quite feminine, satisfying many men's "sexual" fantasies and hooking up directly. In ancient society, it was a "sin" for a woman to look too good. Of course, maybe this woman is also the kind of "easy virtue" person, with relatively developed ideas and a better understanding of romantic things. She is not a person who can be bound by etiquette, but a person who is bound by etiquette. Your name is desire. Once controlled by desire, women are much more terrible than tigers. Of course, this is not entirely Pan Jinlian's fault. If this society is normal, of course, it must satisfy the desires of ordinary men and women. It's a pity that Pan Jinlian married wrongly, which is not the result of free choice.

Song Wu and Pan Jinlian met. When Pan Jinlian met Song Wu for the first time, there was a psychological description: The woman saw Song Wu upstairs and thought, "Song Wu is his first relative, so he grew up. I didn't live in vain to marry such a man! Look at my three-inch drum bark, three points like a person, seven points like a ghost, I am unlucky! According to Song Wu, this sword also ate him and knocked him down, so he must be very strong. Said he had never been married, why not ask him to move in with me? ..... Don't want this marriage right here! ..... "Pan Jinlian's heart is very direct. She is basically not bound by traditional customs. If you just think about it, she is really aggressive. In the face of such "fierce", Pan Jinlian thinks about "right and wrong". As a man, Song Wu satisfied Pan Jinlian's inner image of men. This is the image of his dream lover! Hardcover is powerful, full of masculinity, tiger hero and heroic spirit. What woman doesn't like such a handsome man? And now it's just around the corner, close at hand, and getting the moon first is an advantage! Sadly, Pan Jinlian married Song Wu's brother Wu Dalang. According to realistic etiquette, if a brother-in-law has an affair with his brother and sister-in-law, it is "incest". But? At this time, Pan Jinlian couldn't help it. Lust was like a burning flame, which burned more and more brightly, and generate came out. Her gorgeous uncle made her unable to extricate herself. If you are evil, you can do anything.

So how did Wu Er react to the provocation of her sister-in-law Pan Jinlian? Song Wu, a tiger hero, basically only has the ability to parry, but has no ability to fight back. A tigress is much more difficult to fight than a real tiger. Has the passionate Song Wu ever struggled internally? Basically, the words are positive and the response is in line with etiquette, but no one knows what the heart thinks. Being too positive is not in line with human nature, which shows that normal human nature is suppressed. Where is the world of Water Margin? A really good society can not only let men get their places and give full play to their talents, but also let women vent their normal desires. But in that world, men's dissatisfaction can be solved by violence and alcohol. What about women? I can only hope for a good man. Her beauty and value can only be achieved through a good man, but how many women can get what they want?

Next, sister-in-law Pan Jinlian will definitely provoke Song Wu.

A woman's breasts are slightly exposed and her face is full of smiles. She said: "I heard an idle person say that my uncle raised a singer on Dongjie Street in front of the county seat. Do you dare to say this? " Song Wu said, "Sister-in-law, don't listen to outsiders' nonsense. Wu Er has never been such a person. " The woman said, "I don't believe it. I'm afraid my uncle's words are not like his heart. " Song Wu said, "When your sister-in-law doesn't believe me, just ask your brother." The woman said, "What does he know? When I learned these things, I stopped selling baked wheat cakes. Uncle, please have a drink. "I have screened three or four glasses of wine. Women also have three glasses of wine in their bellies, which arouses the desire for love. This is acceptable there, so we only talk about gossip. Song Wu also learned four or five points, but only bowed his head.

The woman got up to iron the wine. Song Wu lit a fire in his room. The woman warmed a note of wine and came to the room, holding the note in one hand and pressing it on Song Wu's shoulder in the other. "Uncle, isn't it cold to wear only these clothes?" Song Wu has six or seven points of dissatisfaction, and it should not be him. Seeing that he didn't answer, the woman made a sudden snatch and grabbed the chopsticks, saying, "Uncle can't make a fire, so I'll stir it with him; As long as it is as hot as a brazier. " Song Wu was very anxious and just kept silent. A woman's desire is like fire, and she doesn't look at Song Wu's anxiety. She lights a fire stick, but screens a glass of wine, takes a sip of it by herself, and there is still half left. She looked at Song Wu and said, "If you have the heart, have half a glass of my bar." Song Wu snatched it from her hand and threw it on the ground, saying, "Sister-in-law! Don't be ashamed! " Just push with your hands and buy some time to push the woman. Song Wu opened his eyes and said, "Wu Er is a man with indomitable spirit, not those pigs and dogs who are immoral and heartless! Don't be so shameless! If something happens, Wu Er will recognize his sister-in-law in his eyes, but not in his fist! Come again, don't be ashamed! " The woman blushed, so she opened her fork and said, "I'm kidding. I'll take it seriously if it's not straight!" " I don't know human respect! "I moved a dish and went to the kitchen. Song Wu stayed in his room at home angrily.

Pick two paragraphs inside, and the words here are quite explicit. Pan Jinlian exhausted all means at this moment, regardless of anything, but it was doomed to be a tragedy. The woman's spring dream was finally shattered, and he found the wrong person. "The woman blushed." Then why did Pan Jinlian blush? Is it because I'm embarrassed? It can be seen that she still has a sense of shame, and the "four ends" are still hidden in her inner world, using a paragraph to cover up her guilty practices. When things get here, we will think that it is Pan Jinlian's problem. Yes, it is indeed Pan Jinlian's problem, but we can't blame her too much. We should keep a compassionate heart and see the pain of Pan Jinlian being trapped by lust. Fighting tigers can be solved with fists, but sometimes dealing with women can't be solved with fists. This is Song Wu's problem. Does he have a better way to deal with his sister-in-law? In this respect, Song Wu shows that he not only doesn't understand amorous feelings, but also is not good at dealing with the relationship between men and women. He still uses the thinking of shooting tigers to deal with women. A woman sometimes looks like a tiger, but she is not a tiger after all. This is the shortcoming of Song Wu! Can it also be used as a place for readers to think? Perhaps it was Song Wu's unreasonable practice that seriously hurt Pan Jinlian's heart and made her catch up with the extreme. The quality of the jar is only a distance. Song Wu's behavior virtually aroused Pan Jinlian's inner "evil" side, which led to the broken jar below.

Later, Song Wu wanted to go out to handle affairs, and specially went to Wu Da's home to talk to Pan Jinlian:

Song Wu sifted the second glass of wine and said to the woman, "Sister-in-law is a delicate person. Song Wu doesn't have to say much. My brother is simple, and his sister-in-law has the final say about him. As the saying goes,' outward appearance is better than inner strength'. My sister-in-law has settled down. What is my brother worried about? Haven't you heard the old saying,' Dogs can't go to prison'? "

These places have intensified the contradictions between the two sides. Once evil thoughts take root in the heart, they will break through the ground one day. Song Wu, who didn't understand the amorous feelings, accelerated the collapse of Pan Jinlian's inner morality to a certain extent. Heaven and hell are only in one thought, and the heart of shame and evil is covered by deep anger and boundless desire. It is only a matter of time before Pan Jinlian will cheat in the future. Is Song Wu's behavior really debatable? In anything, the subject is the most important, and others are just external causes. Pan Jinlian's lust will be derailed sooner or later if it is not solved. However, if Song Wu had taken a slightly different approach, the next tragedy might not have happened.

Third, lack of human touch.

Song Wu was sent to Mengzhou, and everyone in his cell told him that when he killed Wei Bang, he must say that he was sick and let him write it down temporarily so that he could forget it later, but he was different, insisting that he was not sick. From a secular point of view, it doesn't make sense. The most typical example is that Zhang Dujian of Mengzhou City pretends to be a talent of Song Wu, shows respect to him, and promises to ration the servant magnolia to Song Wu in the future. Of course, the development of things is that Song Wu was calculated by him, regarded as a thief stealing gold and silver, tied Song Wu to the government, framed him, sent him back, and even ended his life on the way. Fortunately, Song Wu was alert and escaped the robbery on the road. Looking back on this matter, Song Wu is still too simple, thinking that his fist can solve all problems, knowing that "an open gun is easier to hide than an open enemy" and defeating Jiang Menshen will solve all problems. The Jianghu is sinister! Not all problems can be solved by force. Zhang Dujian's appearance is very strange in itself. A person you don't know suddenly wants to reuse you and regards society too well. In fact, if Song Wu was a little smarter, he wouldn't have promised to come down first, secretly looking for someone to investigate all the ins and outs of Zhang Dujian, and it wouldn't be too difficult to find something strange. Song Wu still thinks highly of his own technology, takes himself seriously, and trusts others too easily!

Of course, this is also Song Wu's weakness, and I hope to be respected by others. As long as someone looks up to him, he can easily work for others. Song Jiang bought Song Wu's heart in front only through some empty gifts and silver, and he is kind, taking care of good wine and good meat. Although it is said that the road is bumpy and the sword is drawn to help each other, these people's practices have a strong purpose. Song Wu is very eager to get courtesy from others. "A scholar dies as a confidant, and a woman is a confidant." This kind of psychology is particularly obvious in Song Wu. The words "tiger hero" are very useful to him. Every time he kills someone, he writes it on the wall himself. It can be seen that Song Wu's heart has some similarities with Pan Jinlian's. One is a mystery, and the other is a mystery. They are essentially the same kind of people. Only one is a woman and one is a man. Society has accepted the ambition of a man defiled by lust, but it can't accommodate a woman's heart defiled by lust. To a certain extent, they are all "sentient" people, but they don't understand secular human feelings. Song Wu rebelled against the sinister society with his fists, and finally his head was broken and his hands were covered with blood, which was too heavy to kill anyone. In the darkness, he became a walker. Later, the journey was a person.

Song Wu, who doesn't like communication and doesn't understand amorous feelings, is regarded as Song Wu in the eyes of the secular. From the perspective of transcendence, he is a "flawed" god, which is difficult for ordinary people to really understand. His last way out can only be "Liangshan, Shui Bo". During his expedition to Fang La, he broke his arm, his desires and sins, and had a different understanding of life. God walked into the mortal world, and his life was only worthy of the lack of land. He died at the age of 80 without regret.
