Recently, I read the Water Margin again, which makes me have a lot of aftertaste.
"Outlaws of the Marsh" is the first novel with the theme of peasant uprising in Chinese history. It was written at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty by Shi Naian, reflecting the political situation and social contradictions in the late Northern Song Dynasty, and showing the inevitable law of the government forcing the people to revolt.
A secretary of the Water Margin tells the heroic story of 108 heroes led by Song Jiang, from gathering righteousness in Liangshan, to being recruited by the imperial court, to breaking the Liao army, and finally to exterminating the rebels, but being murdered by traitors. After reading the complete book, there are only two words lingering in my mind: loyalty and righteousness.
One of the people who impressed me most in the whole book is Wu Song. I admire him for his bravery, toughness, unyielding and hatred of evil.
Once, he drank a lot in a restaurant called "San Wan Bu Gang". The waiter told him that there was a big bug outside the city. He didn't believe that he was going to break through. He left the city in such a drunken manner. Unexpectedly, he met a big bug in a forest. At that time, his drinking power had gone, and he swung his whistle and hit it. After a struggle, such a strong man, Kill the big bug. I admire Wu Song and his bravery.
After avenging his brother Wu Dalang, he was sent to Mengzhou prison camp. With the merciful help of the prison camp, he was spared the killing stick, and he was delicious. It turned out that Shien's hotel was occupied by the bully Jiang Doorset, who wanted him to help him. Wu Song was very angry when he heard this, so he drank good wine on the road. Then, he rushed to Joyful Forest immediately, beat the door god Jiang, and helped Shi En recapture the hotel. I admire Wu Song and his hatred of evil.
In the war to wipe out Jiangnan Fangla, in order to capture Qingxi Cave and prevent Bao Daoyi from taking out the Xuantian Hunyuan Sword again, Wu Song rushed in front of him. In the fight, Wu Song sacrificed his left arm, so that the Hunyuan Sword was stuck in Wu Song's broken arm, which made Bao Daoyi no longer able to use magic. I admire Wu Song and his toughness.
Li Kui is also a person who impressed me deeply in the whole book, because he always embodies the complete freedom and freedom of character, and he wants to use his two hatchets to fight against injustice for people all over the world. Shi Naian expressed his dissatisfaction with the society, system and justice, and expressed the author's yearning for resistance and freedom. However, he followed Song Jiang all his life and was loyal and loyal. Even though he was dissatisfied with Song Jiang's idea of offering security, he finally chose to obey, because in his mind, Song Jiang would always be his eldest brother. So at the last moment of his life, he still said, "When you go to the hell, you should be a kid beside your brother."
"People are happy on a peaceful day, while warblers and flowers sleep high on an infinite day." After reading the Outlaws of the Marsh, I learned the charm of classical classics. One book, The Water Margin, shows the heroic belief: to act on behalf of heaven, and to kill and retreat the officers and soldiers of the imperial court; A "Water Margin" shows heroism: chivalrous and courageous, fighting against injustice for the people; One "The Water Margin" shows the heroic nature: share weal and woe, gather righteousness in Liangshan Water Marsh. One "The Water Margin" writes the heroic spirit: march forward bravely, and invade Jiangnan and Huaixi. The river flows eastward, and the stars in the sky refer to the Big Dipper... When the road sees injustice, it shouts, and when it is time to make a move, it rushes into Jiuzhou... "Whenever I turn to the" Outlaws of the Marsh ", Liu Huan's loud and passionate singing always echoes in my ears for a long time.
After reading this book, I learned about the history of ancient China, the rebellious spirit of the heroes of the Marsh and the defeated side of the feudal society. This is indeed a very thought-provoking book.
