First, Wang Jin is not "exhausted", Lin Chong is difficult to "rush"
Look at the Water Margin River, if you don't look at the nickname of the River and Lake, it is equivalent to frying the dish just to eat, but found that there is no seasoning.
For example, why is Lin Chong Jianghu nicknamed Leopard Head? "Water Margin" explains: The spear of the eight snakes is tight, and the frost flower horse is frequently hissing. The mountains are full of xiao Zhang Fei, and the leopard head Lin Chong is.
Don't be biased by the TV series "Water Margin", Lin Chong in the original text of Water Margin is the "low-end version" of Zhang Fei, a famous general of the Three Kingdoms. And Zhang Fei because of his "leopard head ring eyes", so Lin Chong nicknamed "leopard head". From this point of view, it is no wonder that the five tigers of Liangshan will be led by Guan Sheng, Lin Chong will be second, Guan Sheng is Guan Yu's "low-end version", and Lin Chong cannot compete with the second brother.
At the same time, I think there is another reason. Lin Chong was the first good man to be forced into Liangshan, and played a decisive role in liangshan's future development- if he had not fired Wang Lun, where would Chao Gai and Song Jiang be the lords of the village? The so-called writing should be "leopard head and tiger tail", so Lin Chong is equivalent to the first cannon of Liangshan, which must be sounded! Therefore, the leopard head can barely make sense.
Although Lin Chong was very important to Liangshan, the first good man of Liangshan to appear was not him, but the apprentice of his colleague Wang Jin, the Nine-Veined Dragon Shi Jin!
Therefore, if you want to talk about Lin Chong, you must first say Wang Jin. As the saying goes, Wang Jin is not "exhausted", and Lin Chong is difficult to "rush"!
Second, the three major differences between Lin Chong and Wang Jin
Lin Chong and Wang Jin were both leaders of the 800,000 Forbidden Army, but the two had three major differences.
First: family conditions are different. Lin Chong is at least a "petty bourgeois", and even many people think that he is "middle class". The family can afford to hire a maid, and the wife Lin Niangzi is also beautiful. In short, the little life is very moist, and going to work is purely a "hobby", not drinking with friends, stringing, talking about life, or accompanying a beautiful wife in shopping.
On the other hand, Wang Jin was a little miserable. He had no wife, but an old mother who had not hired anyone to take care of him. From the time he was persecuted by Gao Li and analyzed when he left, the family conditions should be relatively poor. I don't believe in Chao Gai and Shi Jin, these rich and good men, when they left home, they almost all rubbed and rubbed and packed things, and finally did not forget, and set fire to the house.
Wang Jin, on the other hand, is so free that there is this inference. That is to say, because Wang Jin has only one old mother, he seems to have no worries in life, and his work is naturally clean and neat.
When Lin Chong was persecuted by Gao Qi and Gao Yannei, he suffered this loss. There are too many bottles and cans at home (and finally the completion of the lady' jin'er), and there is a beautiful woman, so Lin Chong has not been able to put it down, which is very stingy and held by Gao Qi, like middle-aged people such as me who are now "scolded by the leader and have to lose their smiles".
Second: the background of the jianghu is different. Lin Chong had the nickname of Jianghu as soon as he appeared, and Wang Jin did not leave a name in the "Jianghu" until he disappeared, he did not have a nickname.
In the Water Margin, don't underestimate the role of nicknames. Even the smallest character has a nickname, such as who is "Golden-Eyed Tiger"? The vast majority of people probably don't know. His name is Deng Long, the first scoop handle of Erlong Mountain, and I will talk about him later. Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi were the Erlong Mountain that snatched him.
Therefore, if there is no nickname, it is either unworthy of being a good man in the jianghu, or it is definitely not a person in the jianghu, and there is no jianghu background. Wang Jin is obviously a good man without a jianghu background!
Third: the influence is different. Lin Chong was the first person in the Shuihu Jianghu who had an official background, but was forced to go to Liangshan and fall into the grass.
He was also the first poet to write poetry. Before going to Liangshan, he wrote a poem at Zhu Gui's hotel: "Battle righteousness is Lin Chong, the most simple and loyal person." The rivers and lakes are prestigious, and the heroes of The Capital Kingdom are prominent... This is Lin Chong's self-positioning, is this the case? Let's just say something else. Anyway, the author thinks that Lu Zhishen should vote against it: you Lin Chong is still "Park Zhong", you can pit me old Lu.
Of course, he was the first person who dared to kill the big brother of the jianghu, and this was Wang Lun. This incident not only affected the Shuihu Jianghu, but also affected Lin Chong's future career in the Jianghu. After all, he has committed a taboo, even if the starting point is good, but in the eyes of others?
For example, chao gai looks at Lin Chong, the more he looks at it, the more he loves it. When he attacked Zengtou City, Lin Chong directly became his deputy. Moreover, Chao Gai's last words before his death, many people believed that the original intention was to pass the throne to Lin Chong. But when Song Jiang looked at Lin Chong, this was not the case at all.
Wang Jin was very simple, and when he fled, he taught an apprentice, which was the first Liangshan good Han Shi Jin to appear. There has been no more sound since. That is to say, Wang Jin influenced the jianghu through Shi Jin. However, Shi Jin's jianghu status could not be compared with Lin Chong. Therefore, Wang Jin's influence was far inferior to Lin Chong's.
But it was fun to have fun, but Lin Chong also had an apprentice, that is, Cao Zheng, a good man of Liangshan, who could not be compared with Shi Jin. However, this is not the point, the point is: Wang Jin's apprentice is a "dragon", Lin Chong's apprentice is a "ghost", why is there such a huge difference?
Three, three reasons, very heartfelt
First, whether there is a inheritance is the key
Most of the Thirty-six Days of Liangshan in "Water Margin" have historical prototypes. For example, Song Jiang, the most important reason why he ran rampant in the Shuihu River and Lake like an open hanging is that there was a "Song Jiang Uprising" in history. Therefore, Song Jiang has the protagonist aura protector.
Shi Jin was one of the generals under the Song Jiang Uprising, and the historical prototype was called Shi Bin. After Song Jiang's death, he continued to struggle and was given the title of emperor. According to the "History of Song": (Shi Bin) according to Xingzhou as emperor. After the attack on Sichuan Sword Gate was unsuccessful, it retreated. In the second year, he attacked Xingyuan and still returned to Guanzhong to attack Chang'an. In November, Song attacked Wu Jiu and retreated to the town of Mingli on the outskirts of Chang'an, where he was captured and killed by Wu Jie.
Why is Shi Jin nicknamed the Nine-Striped Dragon? Its prototype, Shi Bin, really has been a grass head tianzi for a few days! And Cao Zheng is a fictional character, belonging to the water of no source! The nickname of the jianghu naturally cannot be compared with Shi Jin. Although this is very heartfelt, it is also helpless, because anyone's historical background is actually very important - this represents inheritance!
Of course, when it comes to inheritance, it can't be separated from the "Water Margin", Cao Zheng's master is Lin Chong, which is equivalent to being included in another book, the reason is referred to Lin Chong Huo and Wang Lun knows! However, Shi Jin's master Wang Jin was not a person in the jianghu, there was no stain, and there was no obstacle in nature!
Second, family strength is hardware
Shi Jin's family, belonging to the wealthy class, is one of the "great officials" in "Water Margin". Because he liked to dance with guns and sticks, his father invited him several teachers, until finally by chance, he invited Wang Jin, which allowed Shi Jin to learn real kung fu.
Therefore, Shi Jin's hand was no less broad than Song Jiang's, which made Lu Zhishen applaud, but he despised Li Zhong. These are all supported by family strength. Having money is not a panacea, but without money, it is impossible.
Looking at Cao Zheng again, he was miserable. Although he was Lin Chong's apprentice, he was a butcher, who had done business but lost money, and finally had to get into the money - to become a son-in-law.
In this regard, don't say that the jianghu is a good man, it is ordinary people, this is also a big thing! It is equivalent to abandoning the family and becoming a "lone cloud wild ghost". Therefore, Cao Zheng's "knife ghost" has this meaning. One is the profession, the butcher, and the other is caused by the identity of the son-in-law of the upside-down door. And these are all reactions of family strength. Although it looks very heartfelt, this is the reality, and it still exists!
Third, struggle and cultivation are the foundation
Shi Jin, you can say that he is a loser, but he practices martial arts with all his heart, but it is also a struggle. Although he was not a first-class master of the Water Margin, he had entered one of the eight biaos of Liangshan and was already relatively bullish. These are the results of struggle.
Anyone who has been working hard and paying attention to his own cultivation can basically have good results in the Water Margin, and the most typical example is Zhu Tong, who eventually transformed from the capital to a feudal official, and is one of the best good men in Liangshan.
The most tragic was Chao Gai, who kidnapped the Birthday Class, went to Liangshan as the boss, and died in a vacuum, and was kicked out of the circle of 108 generals of Liangshan.
And Cao Zheng also belongs to this kind of person who does not think about struggle and does not pay attention to cultivation. I am not a guest of the jianghu, but I am not in the jianghu.
He is already a butcher, just live a good life, this is not shameful, on the contrary, it is still a good thing! However, he gave Lu Zhishen and Yang Zhi advice, and took the initiative to lead the way, and took the lead in Deng Long's lair, which is equivalent to entering the jianghu and returning to the ordinary life of the people, which is impossible!
In the words of the common people, good people are not right, but they must be ghosts! Although this seems very heartfelt, it is also equivalent to the reverse admonition: although it is important to be a person, although struggle is important, it is more important to cultivate oneself, which is the basis for doing a good job.
