Why did Li Kui's old mother die?

After reading the reasons analyzed by Shen Cong, all the book fans were thoughtful.

Perhaps, Shen Cong's analysis is indeed right, this is really a causal cycle, which makes people very embarrassed and regretful.

However, Li Kui's character image is also very distinct, although he is easy to kill, loves to kill, and kills innocents indiscriminately, but he will never be a vicious person, he will not kill people indiscriminately for no reason, he is also one of the heroes of Liangshan.

All the book lovers are convinced of this.

Li Kui is undoubtedly one of the most important characters in "Water Margin", and one of the characters who use the most pen and ink by the author.

On the Internet, various voices of discussion about Li Kui rise and fall with each other.

And the story of "Water Margin" continues.

After Song Jiang, Li Kui and others went to Liangshan, all the heroes in Liangshan beat Zhujiazhuang three times and sent troops to rescue Chai Jin, which made Liangshan's momentum become more and more powerful.

Then he repelled Gao Taiwei's three-way attack in succession, and the three mountains of Taohua Mountain, Erlong Mountain and Liangshan converged, and returned to Shuibo together, and the momentum of Liangshan gradually developed towards the peak.

However, a very unfortunate thing also came immediately, Liangshan's first chair Chao Gai unfortunately died of poisoned arrows.

Chao Gai led his army to attack Zengtou City, was lured by two monks, went deep into the enemy camp, was shot by a poisoned arrow flying in the night, and died after returning to Liangshan.

Who was the person who shot Chao Gai? On the surface, it seems to be Shi Wengong.

Because the poisoned arrow that hit Chao Gai was engraved with the words "Shi Wengong", naturally, Shi Wengong became the murderer who shot Chao Gai.

But is that really the case?

Not necessarily.

A poisoned arrow engraved with the words "Shi Wengong" does not mean anything at all, let alone prove that Shi Wengong is the murderer.

In the original text, there is no clear description of Chao Gai shot by Shi Wengong.

The only thing we can determine is that it was an ambush in the dark that shot Chao Gai, and where did this ambush come from? Not only was it a mystery before the two sides fought, it was not clear during the battle, and there was no explanation after the fact.

In addition, after Chao Gai was poisoned by an arrow, he never said that Shi Wengong was the murderer, and only said in his last words to Song Jiang that whoever caught the murderer who shot him with an arrow would sit in the first place in Liangshan.

The poisoned arrow was clearly engraved with the words "Shi Wengong", but Chao Gai did not say that Shi Wengong was the murderer.

Also, Shi Wengong never showed off that he shot Chao Gai.

You must know that shooting the first position of Liangshan, the soul character Chao Gai, is a great achievement, and it is a matter of course to be crowned with an official and a knight, and it is also a matter of pride in it.

No matter how you think about it, it is impossible for Shi Wengong to hide this matter.

Also, the arrow is poisonous, Chao Gai's real cause of death is poisoning, just imagine a person like Shi Wengong who is strong in martial arts and has excellent archery skills, if he shoots the enemy, he will inevitably hit the key point with an arrow, there is no need to put poison on the arrow, and he doesn't bother to apply poison to the arrow.

Therefore, the murderer who shot Chao Gai should not be Shi Wengong.

So, who is the real murderer?

It's a mystery.

So, here's the problem.

Chao Gai, as the first leader of Liangshan, is so important, but he died unclear, and the author did not give any explanation to the murderer, but just made him look like Shi Wengong on the surface, which made people suspicious.

It stands to reason that this should not be possible.

Then, there is only one reason that can be explained, and that is the author's metaphor, who is the real murderer?

Who is the real murderer?

Shen Cong gave a subversive answer that everyone couldn't believe it, the real murderer was, Song Jiang.

The murderer turned out to be Song Jiang, and all the fans exclaimed that this was impossible.

Chao Gai and Song Jiang are a pair of brothers in life and death who are righteous and thin, how could Song Jiang kill Chao Gai?

No one would think so.

In this regard, Shen Cong said that he only speculated based on some details, which is not necessarily the real fact, but his speculation is by no means unreasonable.

And after reading Shen Cong's speculation, the fans all fell silent, all thinking.

First of all, Chao Gai died, and the biggest beneficiary was Song Jiang in addition to the official court.

Chao Gai died, and Song Jiang was able to sit on the first position in Liangshan.

Chao Gai is loyal and attaches great importance to brotherhood, but he is not good at power and scheming, and is not very suitable to be a leader.

In fact, since Song Jiang went to Liangshan, the first position on the surface is Chao Gai, but the real leader is more like Song Jiang, and Song Jiang is obviously very willing to be a leader.

But no matter what, Chao Gai is the first place, and Song Jiang can only be second.

If Chao Gai died, Song Jiang would be able to sit in the first place as a matter of course.

Secondly, after Chao Gai was poisoned and returned to Liangshan, Song Jiang's reaction was quite intriguing.

Chao Gai was lying on the bed, the water and rice could not be eaten, the food could not eat, and the whole body was swollen, Song Jiang just stayed in the bed and cried, and did not seek medical advice, looking for someone to diagnose and treat Chao Gai.

Later, after Song Jiang himself fell ill, he immediately sent Zhang Shun to invite the divine doctor An Daoquan,

The divine doctor An Daoquan also easily cured Song Jiang's illness.

So, why didn't Song Jiang invite the divine doctor An Daoquan to diagnose and treat Chao Gai at that time?

The reasons are intriguing.

Third, Song Jiang tampered with Chao Gai's will.

Before Chao Gai died, he said to Song Jiang that whoever caught the murderer who shot him with an arrow would sit in the first place in Liangshan.

However, after Chao Gai's death, Song Jiang said to everyone, "When King Chao was dying, he asked that if someone caught Shi Wengong, he would be appointed as the lord of Liangshan." All the leaders know this. Now that the flesh and bones are not cold, how can we forget? If we have never taken revenge and hated the snow, how can we be in this position?"

It can be seen that Song Jiang directly defined the person who shot Chao Gai as Shi Wengong, and he was also the first person to propose that Shi Wengong was the murderer.

Fourth, Chao Gai once gave a dream to Song Jiang, saying: "Now that the matter on my back has happened, only the Jiangnan Earth Spirit Star can be spared." ”

The next day, Song Jiang had gangrene on his back, and later invited a miracle doctor An Daoquan to treat him.

Some people think that this is proof of the deep brotherhood between Chao Gai and Song Jiang, but the fact may be the opposite, Chao Gaituo's dream just shows that Song Jiang has a ghost in his heart.

First of all, what Chao Gai said in his dream is quite interesting, "Now the thing on his back has happened", Song Jiang interpreted it as Chao Gaituo's dream pointed out the right direction for his treatment.

But this sentence can also prove that some things that Song Jiang did not want to know behind his back were exposed, so Song Jiang became frightened and sick the next day, and had sores on his back.

Fifth, after Chao Gai's death, Song Jiang "led the people to decline every day", "had no intention of managing the affairs of the cottage", and then made a mess up and down the mountain.

When Wu Yong and Li Kui understood the reason and pressed the other generals to threaten them, and Song Jiang successfully sat in the first place, they immediately made a big fanfare and gave orders, and the cottage atmosphere was new.

I really can't see Song Jiang's excessive sadness.

Then Song Jiang said that he wanted to avenge Chao Gai, and Wu used a sentence "Don't move lightly in mourning...... and wait 100 days before they can raise troops."

After Song Jiang heard this, because of this ridiculous reason, he no longer avenged Chao Gai.

Moreover, a hundred days later, Song Jiang did not go to avenge Chao Gai, but went to the capital.

Sixth: "......"

Shen Cong gave a total of ten places for such detailed reasoning.

After reading it, the fans were thoughtful, although the evidence given by Shen Cong was indirect reasoning evidence, but it was indeed very convincing.

This may not be able to prove 100% that Song Jiang is the real murderer of Chao Gai, but Song Jiang is at least very suspicious.

So, here comes another question.

If Song Jiang was really the murderer, it would be impossible for Song Jiang to shoot Chao Gai in person, he would only send one person.

So, who is the person he sent?

There are also details to speculate on this question, not 100% the answer, but it is not unlikely.

This made countless fans sigh that if they didn't study the details of "Water Margin" several times, they wouldn't be able to read "Water Margin" at all.

Of course, this is also a fact, there are many places in "Water Margin" that are worth studying.

Otherwise, you really didn't understand "Water Margin", at most it was just a lively one.

Even Mr. Jin Shengsi, a famous writer and literary critic in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, sighed, "If you don't read "Water Margin", you don't know the wonders of the world." ”
