XXXI: Talking about Song Jiang No. 6
Talking about Song Jiang's sixth
Song Jiang is an extremely determined person, he recognizes a road, and he must go to the bottom. Although many people opposed Zhao'an, he still carried Zhao'an to the end. From this point of view, it can be seen that Song Jiang still has the quality of being the boss. That is, to insist that the green mountains do not relax, and the roots are in the broken rocks. Thousands of blows are still strong, and the wind blows from east to west, north and south.
Zhao'an's resistance was great, and even his most loyal subordinate, Li Kui, was resolutely opposed-
Li Kui finally understood when he heard it, and the final ending was still Zhao'an, and he suddenly stood up: "Zhao'an today, tomorrow's Zhao'an, all day long, recruit a bird?!" β
Wu Song also stood up: "Zhao'an comes, Zhao'an goes, and the hearts of the brothers are cold." β
Lu Zhishen also stood up: "Zhao'an, it's better for me to go back to the temple to be a monk!" β
Li Kui kicked the chair down with a kick and scolded: "Song Jiang, if you mention Zhao'an again, I recognize you as a brother in my eyes, but I don't recognize you as a brother with an axe." What kind of bird is recruited, hit to Tokyo, and take the bird position! β
After Li Kui finished scolding, he ran out with an axe, and all the brothers followed. The black whirlwind was really angry, ran to the apricot yellow flag, and slashed with an axe, and the flagpole fell down after only a few strokes. Tear off the flag, tear it to pieces, and the fragments went away, like countless yellow pineapple butterflies flying.
"It's the other way around, it's the other way around! Take it down!! Song Jiang shouted loudly.
"Whoever dares to come, I will kill him!" The black whirlwind shouted earth-shattering, and the eyes of the two golden eagles stared, which made people tremble.
But Song Jiang is Song Jiang, no matter how many people oppose it, they just try to recruit An, and they are the last to take it. Writing Zhao'an in "Water Margin" is not thorough, the heroes turn too fast and are not convincing enough. The author deliberately wrote a chapter in "Iron-blooded Sorrow Hu Sanniang" - Gongsun sacrifices to the sky and plays tricks. Song Jiang used his usual tricks and let the "providence" decide.
Song Jiang decided to make a desperate bet and made the final decision.
Divide into three steps: 1. Ask Gongsun Sheng for help. Second, let the jade arm craftsman Jin Dajian make a delicate box, cut off the head of the wind, and successfully awarded a thousand taels of gold. 3. Let Wu Yong preside over this matter from beginning to end, secretly build an altar, and even Lu Junyi was kept in the dark.
The latter two things are easy to do. Kerang asked Gongsun Sheng for help, but he encountered ** annoyance. Both times, he was rejected. There are two hurdles, and Gongsun can't overcome it. First, he doesn't like Zhao'an; Second, he couldn't bear to deceive his brothers.
Song Jiang invited Gongsun Sheng to his home, and invited him to eat good wine and food. The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors. Song Jiang suddenly knelt at Gongsun's feet and kowtowed three times.
Gongsun Sheng panicked, hurriedly went to help Song Jiang, and said, "Big brother, you are killing me!" β
Song Jiang didn't get up, and stuffed a small book the size of a matchbox in his hand into Gongsun's hand.
"What is this?" Gongsun Sheng took it and asked curiously.
"This is one of the three heavenly books that the Nine Heavens Xuannu passed down to me. I was chased and killed by the enemy, and I hid in the Xuannu Temple, if it wasn't for the Nine Heavens Xuannu to save me, my life would have returned to the West long ago. These three books of heaven have never been shown to anyone, Mr. Gongsun, you are the first person besides me to see the Nine Heavens Xuannu Book of Heaven. β
Gongsun Sheng was shocked, hurriedly knelt on the ground, stood side by side with Song Jiang, and carefully opened the "Book of Heaven", only to see that it was written:
When you meet a lot of joy, you are not a murderer. Outside Yi and Neikou, a few miracles.
Gongsun Sheng understood the first two sentences, "Su" refers to Su Taiwei, who vigorously advocated recruiting Liangshan heroes. "Gao" refers to Gao Yu, although he does not advocate Zhao'an, he has been cleaned up by Liangshan three times, so he has no objection. The last two sentences, Gongsun didn't quite understand, so he turned down. I saw that at the end it was written-
Mr. Gongsun listened carefully, and Song Jiang had to help if he was in trouble. If it is three-hearted and two-minded, the mother will not die and will be killed.
Gongsun Sheng's face turned pale with fright. He is a filial son, and what he is most afraid of is that his mother will not be able to live a long life, and he is also afraid that he will encounter disasters. Hurriedly helped Song Jiang up and said, "Brother Gongming, where are you pointing, where am I fighting!" β
Song Jiang was overjoyed, woke up in the middle of the night, laughed and said to himself: "I didn't expect Gongsun Sheng to be so easy to deceive, what a bull-nosed old man, let me hold the bull's nose!" β
When the altar was completed, Song Jiang suddenly ordered that 108 would immediately gather at the altar in the northeast corner of Liangshan. When everyone arrived, Song Jiang immediately announced:
"Brothers, today we obey the destiny of heaven and decide to recruit peace. If the Mandate of Heaven asks us to recruit peace, whoever opposes it will be beheaded immediately; If the Mandate of Heaven does not let us recruit An, whoever mentions Zhaoan again will be beheaded immediately. -- We ask Mr. Gongsun to do the business. β
Everyone saw an empty field, drawing a huge gossip map. In the center of the picture is an altar that stands tall. Thirty-two soldiers dressed in white and 32 soldiers dressed in black stood in a circle and surrounded the altar.
Gongsun Sheng was dressed in a Taoist robe, with a cloak and a disheveled hair, and ascended to the altar step by step. And suddenly, he came down from the altar. He danced the pine bronze sword, walked along the hexagram position, and finally settled on the dry position, and there were words in his mouth:
"'I said: Great Qianyuan! The beginning of all materials is to rule the sky. ("I Ching, Qiangua I") today Liangshan Bo Haohan 108 will be here to worship the heavens and decide whether to recruit peace. Putting aside the wishes of man, only seeking the will of God. Providence recruits peace, then recruits peace; If Providence is not, it will not be recruited. ββThere are 8864 pieces of rosewood in this box, which is 64 hexagrams. The wood chips are written with the word 'Zhao' on one side and the word 'No' on the other side, and they are shaken 8 times and thrown into the Taiji diagram. If all the jade pieces are literally upward, then Zhao'an; β
Wu Song shouted: "If so, I will be convinced!" β
Li Kui roared: "If it is the will of heaven, I will admit it!" β
The heroes applauded.
Gongsun Sheng picked up the box in front of his feet, walked out of the gossip map, and shouted, "Which brother will check it?" β
Li Kui jumped out of the crowd and shouted, "I'm coming!" β
Wu Song and Lu Zhishen also ran over. Gongsun Sheng opened the lid of the box, Li Kui grabbed five or six, everyone checked it, and sure enough, the word "move" was written on one side, and the word "no" was written on the other side.
Gongsun Sheng made a hard effort, and the lid of the box was snapped shut with a "bang".
"Li Kui, it's up to you to shake it, and it's up to you to sprinkle it." Gongsun Sheng said and pulled Li Kui to the altar. When he arrived at the top of the altar, Li Kui shook the box more than a dozen times, opened the lid of the box, and all the wood pieces flew into the gossip map, and all the heroes hugged him. All the wood chips are "Zhao" with the word "Zhao" facing up, written by Zhu Pen, which is very dazzling.
"Providence!" Wu Yong hurriedly shouted, and Song Jiang led the 108 generals to shout in unison......
With a wave of his hand, 64 soldiers jumped into the Bagua diagram, picked up all the wood chips, and threw them into the roaring furnace, which turned to ashes in a short time.
Is it really providential? Definitely.
It turned out that the box was carefully designed by Wu Yong and made by Jin Dajian. It turned out that there was a compartment in the box. Gongsun Sheng opened the lid and revealed the first layer, with 64 jade pieces with the word "Zhao" on one side and the word "no" on the other. Li Kui grabbed a handful, and what everyone saw was indeed the word "move" written on one side and the word "no" written on the other side. - There are really no ghosts.
Gongsun Sheng buckled the lid and quietly pressed the dark button to lock the first layer.
Li Kui, a fool, changed a pair of carved eyes in vain, and did not discover the secret inside. Jumping around with the box, he followed Gongsun Sheng to the altar. By the time he opened the box, it was already another layer, and he went down without looking. On the wood chips on this layer, the word "Zhao" is written on both sides. What is naturally exposed on it is full of signs. With a wave of his hand, 64 soldiers who had already trained picked up 64 pieces of wood and threw them into the furnace and burned them to ashes.
If Song Jiang and the others don't make ghosts, will the word "move" on the 64 pieces of wood face up at the same time?
Theoretically, it's a slight possibility. How much is that little bit possible? Let's do the math. From the perspective of probability, the probability of the "move" of 64 pieces of jade literally facing up at the same time is: one of the 64th power of 2. 2 of 64 equals: 1844674407309551616.
In other words, it is Li Kui who throws the jade slice 1844674407309551616 times, and only then may there be a result of the "move" of 64 wood chips literally facing upwards at the same time. Suppose Li Kui throws wood chips once a second, and it will never stop throwing them, and it will take about 50 billion years to throw them, and only then will there be one result that Song Jiang wants to see.
Assertion: If Song Jiang and the others don't engage in ghosts, this "providence" will not appear until they die, or even until the day when the earth is destroyed.
Song Jiang adopted deceptive methods, and finally succeeded in recruiting An, leading his brothers to submit to the court, and the final outcome is relatively clear to everyone, after beating Fang La, more than two-thirds of them died. In the end, Song Jiang also failed to die well.
In terms of literary image, Song Jiang is still much richer than Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, and Li Kui. Although Wu Song, Lu Zhishen, and Li Kui like more people, it is a bit simplistic in terms of image. Especially Li Kui, he is a cartoon character, there is nothing to talk about, either drinking or killing.
Song Jiang is a round character, and there are many things to talk about......
