Li Kui ranked fifth among the ten leaders of the infantry and twenty-second in the liangshan rank of one hundred and eight generals, and the infantry masters we are familiar with, Nine Dragon Shi Jin, Mu Hong, and Shi Xiu, who were desperately trying to hold meetings, all sat under Li Kui when they held meetings.
Many people say that Li Kui's high ranking is Song Jiang's private fraud, because some Song Jiang does not dare to do the dirty work himself, and Li Kui is not stingy to do it, and it is not okay not to give a little sweetness.
If we look closely at the original work of Water Margin, we will find that the reason why Li Kui ranked high is really not entirely because he has a good relationship with Song Jiang (in fact, Song Jiang often scolds only Li Kui, and even thought of killing him), but Li Kui has a skill, which can almost rank first in Liangshan, even if the "three fists and two feet" killed the walker Wu Song, who hangs a white-fronted tiger, may have nothing to do with Li Kui.
Wu Song said that he "killed the tiger with three fists and two feet", which was exaggerated, in fact, he also used all his strength to beat the tiger: "Wu Song grabbed the top flower skin tightly with his left hand, stole his right hand, lifted a fist the size of a hammer, and did his best to fight. Fifty or seventy punches were thrown, and blood burst out of the worm's eyes, mouth, nose, and ears. ”
Being able to hold down three or five hundred pounds of tigers, Wu Song really had the strength of a heavenly man, and among the one hundred and eight generals of Liangshan, only the flower monk Lu Zhishen had this ability.
After Wu Song fought the tiger, he was tired and had no strength at all, so his tiger fighting process was more exciting and more real, and Li Kui Yiling used a simple knife and a waist knife to kill the four tigers, and there were two cubs among the four tigers, so many people thought that Li Kui's combat effectiveness was far inferior to That of Wu Song, and Wu Song had the strength to kill Li Kui in a second.
At first, the author also thought that Wu Song could kill Li Kui with three punches and two feet, but looking closely at the original work of Water Margin, I found that I underestimated Li Kui's skills.
Li Kui once boasted after poking a singer with a finger: "Only the finger is slightly wiped, and he (she) falls on himself." I have never seen such a bird woman, delicate and delicate! You might as well punch me in the face with a hundred punches!" ”
Seeing this, the author also laughed secretly: "Let Lu Zhishen or Wu Song punch you three times in the face, you opened a sauce shop, a color shop, and set up a water and land dojo - salty, sour, spicy, red, black, and dai, all of which will roll out, and the cymbals, cymbals, and cymbals will also ring in your head." ”
If Li Kui, like Zheng Tu in Guanxi, could not help but fight, he would not have lived to "meet" Song Jiang, and in the subsequent battles, he also showed the same ability to resist beatings as Zhou Tai of the Three Kingdoms -- the ability of Li Kui to sit on the top spot on Liangshan that we want to talk about today is the ability to resist blows.
How resistant Li Kui was to the beating, we can see from a battle when the Liangshan army was conquest of Tian Hu.
In the Water Margin, there are two people who make good use of flying stones, one of whom is Zhang Qing, and the other is Zhang Qing's wife Qiongying. Between Qiong Ying's Flying Stone Kung Fu and Zhang Qing's Bo Zhong, the Halberd Technique may be better than Zhang Qing's Marksmanship. Qiong Ying took more than a dozen rounds to pick the short-footed tiger Wang Ying off the horse, that one was likely to run between the legs, the result was stabbed in the thigh, the third lady looked angry and afraid, scolding if repeated, it will be judged as obscene by many platforms.
The reason why Qiongying gave Wang Ying a desperate hand is because she is not as "generous" as The Third Lady. Hu Sanniang knew that Wang Ying was demonstrating an unspeakable picture in her mind, and finally her subordinates were merciful: "Lightly relieve the ape arm, lift Wang Xiaohu away from the carving saddle, and capture him alive." ”
Almost cut off the second half of the happy life of the third lady scolded and quarreled wielding a double knife to play with Qiongying's life, but she could not beat people, and the mother worm Gu Dajie could not go up: "Gu Dajie saw the third lady fighting Qiongying, but made the double knife pat immediately to help the battle." Three female generals, six arms, four steel knives, and a painting spear, each facing each other on horseback, just like the wind fluttering jade crumbs, snow sprinkling qionghua. ”
The three female generals fought this time, and the result ended with the third lady being hit in the wrist by a stone, and the young lieutenant Chi Sunxin came up to rescue his wife and mother, Gu Dajie, and was also beaten by Qiong Ying with a stone.
Qiong Ying feishi was invincible, and angered the leopard head Lin Chong (probably also because the third lady was beaten and caught on fire), and as a result, he was also tragic: "Qiong Ying saw that Lin Chong rushed closer, and Ding Lin Chong was closer to the door, and a stone flew in. Lin Chong's eyes were bright and his hands were fast, and he brushed the handle of the spear over the stone. Qiong Ying saw that she could not hit it, and then picked up the second stone and looked at Lin Chong to hit. Lin Chong hurriedly dodged, hitting him in the face, blood gushing out, dragging the spear back to the battlefield. ”
Lin Chongzhang's eight snake spears were invincible, but he could not help Qiong Ying to go without a trace of the flying stone, at this time it was the turn of the protagonist of this article, the black whirlwind Li Kui, to appear: "Li Kui held the axe in his hand and snatched it straight over, Qiong Ying saw the ferocity of his coming, holding the stone in his hand, hoping that Li Kui would fight, right in the middle of the forehead." Li Kui was also taken aback. Fortunately, the skin was old and hard, and it was only painful to fight, but it was not broken. Qiong Ying saw that he could not defeat Li Kui and ran into the battle. Li Kui was furious, the tiger's whiskers were upside down, his strange eyes were wide open, he roared, and crashed straight into it. ”
Lin Chong was beaten by a stone and blood burst out, Li Kui was stoned, but he was still fierce like a person who had nothing to do, Qiong Ying had to hit a second time, and the effect was counterproductive: "Qiong Ying saw that he came close, and he flew a stone, and hit Li Kui's forehead." He was injured twice, and only then did the blood burst out. Li Kui was finally an iron man, with a black face and bright red blood, and he slammed into the formation with a double axe and slashed the Northern Army indiscriminately. ”
In fact, Lu Zhi deep forest chong Wu Song, even hit by two stones, it is estimated that he had to be dizzy, and Li Kui was hit twice before he saw blood, he not only did not faint, but also became more fierce, which reminded the author who grew up in Daxing'anling of two kinds of beasts - the legendary two kinds of beasts, just like Li Kui.
In the northern mountain forest, there is a saying of "one pig, two bears and three tigers", and the reason why black bears and wild boars can be ranked before tigers is related to two basically the same legends: black bears and wild boars like to rub itch on pine trees, often after rubbing turpentine, they roll in the mud pit on the beach, and then they are covered with a thick layer of armor, and the general shotgun cannot penetrate at all.
Black bears and wild boar "self-made armor" is just a legend, before the prohibition of hunting, the author did not eat bear meat and wild boar meat, to this day, in the hometown is often "artificially raised" wild boar meat for sale.
The fact that wild boar and black bear gun can't fight through is just a legend, but if we look closely at the description of Li Kui in the original book of Water Margin, we can still find that he is a combination of wild boar and black bear: "Black bear is like thick meat, and the iron bull seems to be naughty all over the body." With a word of red and yellow eyebrows, the eyes are red and silky. Furious as an iron brush, vicious like a fox - the canopy is evil and the ladder of clouds is evil. ”
Black bears and wild boars will not get a suit of armor by themselves, no one has seen it with their own eyes, but Li Kui's skin is thick and thick, but there is a specific description in the original work of Water Margin: he put his black claws into Song Jiang Daizong's hot soup bowl to catch fish bones and fish meat, he was afraid of soup at all, watching the milky white fish soup become pitch black after Being washed by Li Kui's claws, and Song Jiang Li Kui also lost his appetite.
Li Kui's blackness is not innate, because there is no evidence that he has African ancestry, so we can only say that Li Kui's blackness is completely "acquired".
Li Kui may have bathed twice in his life: once when he was born, he was taken into the Xunyang River by Zhang Shun, a white stripe in the waves, and washed again--living on the side of the Xunyang River, Li Kui actually could not swim, indicating that he had never bathed in the river at all.
Li Kui was unwilling to go down to the river to bathe, and there was no bathing condition in the residence, in fact, Li Kui did not have a fixed residence at all: "He is a headless god, and he has no place to live, only in prison." There was no patrol in the field, and he rested for two days in the east and a few hours in the west, and he didn't know where he lived. ”
After eating the last meal, Li Kui was naturally not in the mood to take a bath, so we can imagine that Li Kui's body must be covered with new soil and old ash, accumulated over the years, forming a thick layer of carapace, Qiong Ying's first stone only laid down a piece of ash, and the second stone only made a small hole in the exposed skin and flesh. If Qiongying's flying stone was not as accurate as Wu Jing's Wolf Sniper Rifle, hitting the same point twice, Maybe Li Kui wouldn't even have a drop of blood.
Seeing this, there may be readers who prefer to be clean, and they are already a little sick to their stomachs, so this article stops here: Li Kui is not only fierce and black, but also black enough on his face, and this kind of blackness in the appearance is exactly the common feature of pickled people - people wear patched clothes, as long as they are clean, but the leader of the clothes is dark and shiny, and he walks with a bad wind, then this person's character has some problems.
Li Kui's skin is thick and thick, it belongs to the high defense attributes, it does not brush or wash all year round, and he has equipped himself with a layer of gray armor, which seems to be "well equipped".
Facing Li Kui, who had high attributes and was well equipped, how could Lu Zhishen Wusong knock him down with three fists and two feet? Readers can imagine: Are Lu Zhishen and Wu Song, who are covering their noses, willing to fight with Li Kui in close quarters? If there was a real fight, how many punches and feet would Lu Zhi shen Wusong need to use to break through Li Kui's defenses with poisonous attributes? How many people like Li Kui who are unhygienic and so frightening that they "smell the wind" are frightening?
