In "Water Margin", there are many masters of martial arts, such as leopard head Lin Chong, Xiao Li Guanghuarong, and Jade Qilin Lu Junyi and others. These people made great achievements in the process of Liangshan's southern conquest of the northern war, and they also made a deep impression with their incredible skills. But there is a master, who is excellent in martial arts, but he appears once and disappears. This person was Wang Jin, the leader of the Eight Hundred Thousand Forbidden Army.
Why is Wang Jin a master?
"Water Margin" tells the story of Wang Jin at the beginning, which shows that Wang Jin is not a passerby without any sense of existence. His departure is actually the epitome of the good man of Liangshan who was later forced to liangshan. Many people only know that Lin Chong is highly skilled in martial arts and has a prominent position in Liangshan. But Wang Jin was only stronger than Lin Chonglai. Why? Because Wang Jin's father, Wang Sheng, was a famous martial artist, the family heirloom made the stick desperate, and almost scrapped Gao Li that year. It was precisely for this reason that Gao Li hated Wang Jin to the bone and retaliated.
Wang Jin
Although there are also novels that mention that Lin Chong's master is Zhou Tong, a martial arts master in the late Northern Song Dynasty, it is not a novel with "Water Margin" after all. From the perspective of family origin, Lin Chong is inferior to Wang Jin. And Lin Chong, as the leader of the 800,000 Forbidden Army, was actually willing to insert the door backwards, indicating that the strength of his father-in-law's family was not weak. His job as a gun and stick instructor was probably found for him by his father-in-law.

Of course, Wang Jin's father was a martial artist, which did not mean that he was skilled in martial arts. After all, the story of Lao Tzu's hero's dog and bear is not uncommon in history. However, Wang Jin had an apprentice, and after his tutelage, he could actually play a tie with Lu Da, which could reflect his martial arts attainments from the side. And this apprentice of Wang Jin was the Nine-Striped Dragon Shi Jin.
Apprentice Shi Jin
Shi Jin was born in a family of squires, and there was no shortage of money in the family, so he had nothing to do all day and nothing to do. In order to prevent his son from going astray, Mrs. Shi invited some masters to teach him martial arts, one of whom was Li Zhong, the tiger general. These people are basically in the rivers and lakes, and occasionally sell dog skin plasters part-time, which can be real martial arts, they blindly instruct Shi Jin to practice. Shi Jin was flattered by these masters all day long, and he really thought that he was a talent of heaven, so he was extremely proud, thinking that the heavens were the eldest, the earth was the second oldest, and he was the third oldest.
Shi Jin
Wang Jin passed by Shijiazhuang when he escaped with his old wife, and when he was staying at the boarding house, he saw Shi Jin playing with a flower stick, so he pointed out two sentences to him. At first, Shi Jin was not convinced, and wanted to compare himself with Wang Jin. But after only two or three minutes, Wang Jin taught him how to be a man. At this time, Shi Jin realized that he had been deceived by a group of charlatans. Shi Jin was not stupid, knowing that Wang Jin was a person with real ability, he worshiped Wang Jin as a teacher and learned eighteen martial arts.
Half a year later, Wang Jin left Shijiazhuang and defected to the old jingjing of Yan'an Province, while Shi Jin became the master of the villa after his father's death. As for Shi Jin and Lu Zhishen, it was because he had robbed Lu Zhishen's head. Shi Jin went to Yanzhou to look for Wang Jin unsuccessfully, and when he returned to Beijing, he also ran out of entanglements. In order to solve this problem, he went to the red pine forest to rob. At that time, Lu Zhishen happened to lose to Cui Daocheng because he did not eat, so he decided to sprinkle his anger on this blind cockroach thief.

Since neither of them recognized anyone, they fought for more than a dozen rounds. Shi Jin felt that Lu Zhishen's voice was familiar, and only then did he stop fighting. Lu Zhishen's combat strength is obvious to everyone. In the whole "Water Margin", few people can compare. Shi Jin was able to play with him for more than a dozen rounds without falling behind, which showed how high Wang Jin's level of martial arts instruction was. You know, Shi Jin had also beaten Li Zhong's level before, and even worse.
The reason why Wang Jin was not forced to liangshan by Gao Li was because of three main reasons: First, Wang Jin only slighted Gao Li and was not convicted. Gao Li had no excuse to dispose of Wang Jin; Second, Wang Jin knew the advance and retreat, knew the gains and losses, knew that he could not fight high, and took the best strategy. However, Lin Chong has always wanted to endure humiliation and steal his life, giving Gao Li the opportunity to harm him; Third, Wang Jin only had one old woman, which was convenient for him to escape, but Lin Chong dragged his family with his mouth and was inconvenient to walk. It is precisely because of these gaps that two different lives have been created.
