Lu Zhishen is a heroic character who is uneven in "Water Margin". Without Lu Zhishen, the charm of "Water Margin" would be reduced a lot.

Lu Zhishen, whose real name was Lu Da, was a subordinate of the old jingluo in Yan'an Province, and was borrowed by the small seed jingluo to Weizhou. His appearance is in Weizhou. At that time, jiuwen longshi went to Yan'an mansion to find master Wang Jin, and Yin and Yang mistakenly found Weizhou and met Lu Da at the Pan Hotel. Since then, "Water Margin" has spent several times focusing on the story of Ruda.

Ruda saves people, is altruistic, conscious, without any additional conditions, his nature is not to see all bullying, cruel and good behavior, for those who suffer, will not hesitate to help, so we say that he is brave and courageous. Here are a few of his stories of saving people.

Let's start with punching the town of Kansai. Lu Da, Shi Jin and Li Zhong were eating wine, and when they heard a woman crying next door, they called for a question, and Fang knew that it was the Father and Daughter of the Jin Clan. The Jin family of three, originally from Tokyo, went to Weizhou to join relatives, but when they arrived, they found that their relatives had moved elsewhere, they were unrelated, and there was no travel expense to go back, and it happened that Jin's mother died of an epidemic when she was ill. The Kim father and daughter have nothing to live for. At this time, Zheng Tuqiang, who killed the pig, guaranteed the false money and deed, and collected Jin Cuilian as an outer chamber. Who knew that the eldest lady of the Zheng family was very jealous, and soon drove Jin Lao'er and Jin Cuilian out and demanded the three thousand yuan of money contained in the canonical documents. These three thousand guan originally did not exist, they were not given to the Kim family in the first place, and now let the Kim family return, where do they go to get this money? Jin's father and daughter were helpless, had to rush to the hotel, sing small songs, Jin Laohan taught Cuilian from primary school, and could only cope with this, get some money, most of them returned to the Zheng family, a small amount of savings, used as a way back to their hometown in the future. Who knows that there are not many hotel guests these days, they see that the business is light, they can't get money, and they are afraid of missing the repayment period stipulated by the Zheng family, and they are embarrassed and helpless, so they cry.

Lu Zhi listened deeply, and even his lungs exploded. At the beginning, I did not give money to others, but now I ask for money from others, which is not voluntary, and it is necessary to marry as an outer chamber by a strong mediator, which is tantamount to robbing people's women, forcing money, and oppressing goodness. Especially when I heard that this so-called town of Kansai was originally Entrusted to Zheng Tu, who sold pork in the small seed Jingluo Province, he was even more angry: I Luda defected to the old seed Jingluo, and the general of the seed became the military commander of the five roads in Kansai, and did not call any town Kansai, and this rotten butcher dared to call it "Town Kansai"! Lu Da took out five or two pieces of silver from his body, and asked Shi Jin to help him with twelve, and gave them to the Jin father and daughter at the same time, so that they could pay for the road and leave the place as soon as possible. The Jin father and daughter thanked each other for their kindness, while worrying that the people arranged by Zheng Tu would stop them. Lu Da asked them to go back to the Lu family guest house where they were staying first and pack up their things. The next morning, Lu Da came to the Lu family guest house and urged Jin To leave quickly. At this time, the shopkeeper did not let them go according to Zheng Tu's arrangement. Ruda is hard to help the Kim father and daughter get away. Lu Da was afraid that xiao Er of the shop would report to Zheng Tu to chase after him, so he went straight to find Zheng Tu. He first asked Zheng Tu to cut ten pounds of lean meat and chop it into cheeks, then ten pounds of fat meat as a cheek, and finally ten pounds of non-thin and fat flower meat as a cheek. Zheng Tu saw Lu Da entertaining him, his heart was angry, and finally he couldn't help it, and Lu Da beat this guy violently, and beat him to death with three punches. In order to escape the pursuit of the government, Lu Da had to leave Weizhou.

Look at the angry little bully. Lu Da became a monk at Mount Wutai, and the Zhizhen Elder of Mount Wutai gave Lu Da the title of ZhiShen. Lu Zhishen, because he was not accustomed to the life of the temple for 2 years, made a big fuss about Mount Wutai, and Elder Zhizhen had to introduce Lu Zhishen to the Great Xiangguo Temple in Tokyo, where the elder Zhiqing was the disciple of Elder Zhizhen. Lu Zhishen passed through the peach blossom village under the peach blossom mountain in Tokyo, temporarily borrowed a night, saw Liu Taigong's sad face, and only when he asked did he know that Zhou Tong, the little overlord who fell grass on the peach blossom mountain, wanted to forcibly marry Liu Taigong's daughter as the lady of the village, Liu Taigong and the dealer did not agree, and did not dare to resist. Lu Zhi saw this deeply and was determined to help Liu Taigong. When the little bully Zhou Tonglai forced the marriage, Lu Zhishen pretended to be the bride and hid in the silk tent. Zhou Tong went to the bed in the dark, touched Lu Zhishen's belly, and was wondering why the lady did not greet him as a groom, when he was grabbed and beaten by Lu Zhishen. The minions brought by Zhou Neng rushed to help, and Lu Zhishen's red stripes were completely naked, and he picked up the Zen staff and beat them. The minions retreated in fright, and Zhou Tong took the opportunity to sneak out of the room, rode his horse to the courtyard, and fled to the mountain in a hurry. Li Zhong wanted to be angry for Zhou Tong, led his men down the mountain, and found that the person who punished Zhou Tong turned out to be Lu Da, whom he had met in Weizhou. Lu Da demanded that Li Zhong and Zhou Tong abandon the idea of asking Miss Liu to be the lady of the village, and returned their dowry, so that the Liu family was spared the great difficulty.

This was followed by the burning of the crock pot temple. Lu Zhi went deep out of Peach Blossom Village, passed through the Clay Pot Temple, and saw that the temple was in ruins. Hungry in his stomach, he went to the temple to make love, only to see a few elderly monks, skinny as wood. Listening to the monks, this place was originally a famous temple, and later, two masters who killed people and set fires to each other and did nothing wrong, one monk and one monk, the monk was called Cui Daocheng, nicknamed Pig Iron Buddha, the Taoist was called Qiu Xiaoyi, nicknamed The Flying Night Fork, these two people occupied the temple and drove the monks away. These old people, because of their old age and frail health, had nowhere to turn, so they lay here and starved. Lu Zhishen looked behind the abbot, and the monk had placed wine and meat on the table together, and was eating wine with a woman. The woman was the daughter of Wang Youjin under the mountain, who was originally a benefactor, but was killed by this monk and captured the woman. Lu Zhishen could tolerate such unrighteous things, and he kicked open the door and fought with the Pig Iron Buddha and the Flying Night Fork. Although Lu Zhishen was highly skilled in martial arts, how could he deal with those two alone, coupled with hunger in his stomach, he had to sell a flaw to quit the fight. He came to the Red Pine Forest, met Shi Jin, Shi Jin gave Lu Zhishen the food he had brought with him, and after letting him eat enough, the two of them came together to Cui Daocheng and Qiu Xiaoyi, Lu Zhishen fought Cui Daocheng, and Shi Jinli fought Qiu Xiaoyi, and finally ended up with the scum of these two monasteries. When they looked back at the people in the temple, they realized that the old men, seeing that Lu Zhishen had not beaten a monk before, were frightened and hanged. Wang Youjin's daughter also committed suicide. Lu Zhishen and Shi Jin packed up some items and set fire to the Crock Pot Temple.

There is also a touching story, that is, saving Lin Chong in the wild boar forest. After Lu Zhishen arrived at the Great Xiangguo Temple in Tokyo, Elder Zhiqing asked Lu Zhishen to manage the vegetable garden. On this day, Lu Zhishen was practicing martial arts in the garden, and accompanied his wife to Lin Chong, who burned incense at the Dongyue Temple to make a wish, heard the movement on this side, came to applaud, met Lin Chong, and became a brother. It was also this time that Lin Niangzi encountered the rogue rogue Gao Ya Nei. This Gao Yu Nei was originally the son of Gao Qi's uncle and was a brother to Gao Li, but he was succeeded by Gao Li as a son. This boy wielded the power of Gao Qi, and gathered a group of idle floating prodigal disciples all day long, picking flowers and stealing willows, and doing no evil. This time, when she saw Lin Niangzi, she went forward to flirt, lin Niangzi did not follow, Gao Ya was entangled, and the maid Jin Er who went with her hurriedly found Lin Chong. Lin Chong bid farewell to Lu Zhishen and went to deal with some things, and he grabbed Gao Yanei and wanted to fight, because he saw that it was Gao Yanei and did not dare to do it, he was afraid of offending Gao Qi. At this time, Lu Zhishen rushed to Lin Chong with his disciples and said, "You are afraid of Lieutenant Gao, but I am not afraid, and if this Gao Ya nei encounters me, he will definitely let him eat three hundred Zen staffs." Friends have something to do, hurry up, this is enough buddy. The indignation against the evil boy shows Lu Zhishen's integrity. Here, the personality characteristics of Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen also have a sharp contrast. Lin Chong was cautious and swallowed his anger, and Lu Zhishen was full of wind and fire, and he would never be wronged in the slightest.

Although Lin Chong was so careful, he was still calculated by the evil forces, and Gao Qi, Lu Qian, and others not only set up a situation to insult Lin Chong and send him to Cangzhou, but also arranged for Dong Chao and Xue Ba, who ended up killing Lin Chong on the road. When Dong Chao and Xue Ba were about to mutilate Lin Chong's life in the wild boar forest, Lu Zhishen appeared, and he blocked it with a Zen staff, protected Lin Chong, and taught the two messengers a harsh lesson. Originally, Lu Zhishen heard that Lin Chong was in Cangzhou, and he was very uneasy, afraid that the bad guys would harm Lin Chong, so he followed all the way and secretly protected Lin Chong. This time, if it wasn't for Lu Zhishen's help, Lin Chong's life would be gone.

Lu Zhishen is a relatively perfect hero, he is not as indiscriminate as Li Kui, nor is he as stoic as Lin Chong, his bravery reassures good people and makes bad people dare to fight. Lu Zhishen is informal, he is a monk, but he eats meat and wine, but he never steals, never approaches a woman, and has great respect for women. This is the case with Jin Cuilian and Liu Taigong's daughters, so some people say that he is good at saving women. Saving women is also based on a full sense of justice, without any selfish distractions. Lu Zhishen was nicknamed the flower monk, not because he had a flower heart, but because he had a beautiful flower embroidery.

Some people said, "When Lu Zhishen saw Lin Chong, he first asked his sister-in-law if it was okay, and there was a deep meaning inside." This means that Lu Zhishen has a little special feeling between men and women for Lin Niangzi.

The original text of "Water Margin" is not "don't ask how men are, first ask people's wives". After the Three Mountains juyi attacked Qingzhou, Lu Zhishen went up to Liangshan and met with Lin Chong, who sat down and talked about thanking Lu Zhishen for saving him. Lu Zhi asked deeply, "Since the restaurant said goodbye to the head of the church, it has been reading auntie all day long, has there been any information lately?" Lin Chong said, "Since the fire fight wang Lun, let people go home to move the old and the young, it is known that the humble woman was forced by Gao Taiwei, and then hanged herself and died, and the wife and father were also worried and died of illness." Lu Zhishen is not a general greeting, but concerned about the Lin Chong family, "reading", should be a thought, he asked Lin Niangzi "Has there been any information recently?" Lu Zhishen sent Lin Chong, the brother of Jieyi, on the Cangzhou Road, and the two never saw each other again. Lin Chong was persecuted to that point, his wife lived alone near the evil person, how could a true friend not be worried? It is also in this sense that Lu Zhishen said, "I don't miss my sister-in-law every day."

Lu Zhishen has a story of making a big fuss about Mount Wutai. This story, it seems that Lu Zhishen does not abide by the rules of the temple, but in fact, it reflects Lu Zhishen's sincere and unfettered character, which is very in line with the truth of art. After all, a hero is a hero, and if he is a well-behaved and obedient little sheep, he will not be able to punish evil and save people.

The story goes something like this: Lu Zhishen killed the town of Kansai and went into exile in Yanmen County, Dai prefecture, and in order to escape the arrest of the government, Jin Cuilian's husband Zhao Yuanwai introduced him to The Wenshu Monastery in Wutai Mountain as a monk. A newcomer who did not understand the rules and was unaccustomed to the monks seemed somewhat isolated. Second, he was originally from a military background, only because he came here to avoid, and his thoughts did not really enter the temple, so after a long time, Lu Zhi was very bored and bored, and he wanted to drink some wine to adjust it.

Violations of temple rules are mainly manifested in drinking wine and eating meat. That day, he was not interested, he went down to the pavilion in the middle of the mountain, just happened to have a man selling wine passing by, Lu Zhishen wanted to buy wine to drink, the wine seller knew that the monk could not drink, this wine was only for the fireworks Taoist, if the monk ate the wine, the elder blamed it, and the business could not be done later. Ke Lu Zhi shen wine worm came up and ignored this set, and snatched the barrel from Hanzi, drank a barrel, and let Hanzi go to the temple to ask for money. The man was so frightened that he did not dare to ask for money, so he divided the other barrel of wine into two and a half barrels, and returned with the wine. Lu Zhishen had a drunken attack, and when he returned to the temple, Menzi and other monks saw that he had violated the rules of the temple and prevented him from entering the temple, in this case, Lu Zhishen clashed with them. This Lu Zhishen is really cute, he also calls the monk "bald donkey" as usual, and he didn't expect that he was also a "bald donkey" now.

The second time was a drinking foul. For some time after the last big fuss, Lu Zhishen had been afraid to go out of the temple, for fear of making another mistake, and he also wanted to do it well. However, after a long time, he still couldn't hold back, and on this day he finally went down the mountain. First in the town under the mountain, let the blacksmith shop give him a Zen staff, and then he went to drink, found several hotels, and no one dared to give him wine. Wutai Mountain is a famous temple, the temple in order to correct the rules, and the nearby villages and towns of the hotel have a pact, can not give the monks to drink, these hotels, through the temple service, good money, so, no one dares to sell wine to monks. Lu Zhishen finally found a remote hotel and said that he was a foreign monk, not a Wutai Mountain, and under his repeated requests, people dared to give him wine. While drinking, he asked for dog meat to eat, and he drank too much. When he returned to the Pavilion in the Middle Of the Mountain, he tried his fists and feet in drunkenness, and suddenly collapsed the pavilion, this time, the monks in the temple closed the gate even more, Lu Zhi was deeply eager to enter, and drunkenly pushed down the statue of King Kong outside the door. The monks had great opinions, and Elder Zhizhen had nothing to say, so he had to say hello to Zhao Yuanwai and introduce Lu Zhishen to Elder Zhiqing, his disciple at the Great Xiangguo Temple in Tokyo. The issue of compensation for the destruction of the property in the temple was also the responsibility of Zhao Yuanwai.

There is a school of Zen Buddhism that emphasizes enlightenment, that is, the Buddha-nature of man, does not necessarily have to be practiced for a long time, as long as the inner realization reaches a state, it has Buddha-nature. Although he did not meditate and chant the Buddha all day like other monks, his Buddha-nature was not worse than theirs at all, and it was far higher than theirs, so Elder Zhizhen said that wisdom would achieve positive results. In fact, the monks who read the Buddha in the temple in a disciplined manner did not see much merit in the world. Instead, Lu Zhi broke into Kyushu with deep wind and fire, punished many evils, saved many people, and did so many good things, and finally became the right result.

After Lu Zhishen went to Liangshan, he had great merit in all the battles. When fang la was recruited, he also captured Fang La. The original "Water Margin" is written like this. As for Fang La, wu song, that is the 98 version of the CCTV TV series based on folklore.

Lu Zhishen really has excellent eyesight. This point, in the process of opposing Zhao'an, is very telling. At that time, Wu Song said: "Recruiting security today and recruiting security tomorrow has chilled the hearts of the brothers." This only said that many Liangshan brothers did not want to recruit security. Li Kui said: "Zhao An Zhao An, Zhao Xi Bird An." This only reflects the impatience of people like Li Kui who come out of the bottom of society with Zhao'an. But Lu Zhishen talked about the root of the problem, talking about the point, he said: "So far, the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu, most of them are adulterous and evil, and they have deceived the holy cong, just like this straight, dyed with soap, how to wash clean, tomorrow one by one to find it." Lu Zhishen said it thoroughly, and it was right, and later, the ending after Liangshan would accept the recruitment also fully proved this point. They enlisted the Liao and fought foreign enemies for the country. Conquest of Fang La, pacifying the interior. In this way, they were still persecuted by Cai Jing, Gao Qi, and other corrupt officials, and Song Jiang, Li Kui, and others were poisoned to death by them with poisoned wine.
