Longmen Village.

Li Xianyu watched everyone's various evaluations of "Water Margin" on the Internet.

Yongren wrote: "There is no doubt that 'Water Margin' is a work of high artistic value. It is destined to become a classic.

The book focuses on the occurrence and development of the peasant uprising, and through the different experiences of each character who were forced to go to Liangshan, it describes the whole process of their individual awakening, to small-scale joint resistance, to the development of a grand uprising.

It shows the inevitable law of peasant uprisings in the feudal era of 'official coercion and rebellion'. It created a group image of the leaders of the peasant uprising, which profoundly reflected the political situation and social contradictions in the context of the time.

However, due to the duality of the leaders of the uprising and the historical limitations of thought, when the uprising reached its peak, they chose to compromise and recruit peace. In the end, the cause of the uprising was destroyed.

Overall, the work is very literary. Many of the characters in it have distinct personalities.

Among them, the characters I admire the most are Lu Zhishen and Wu Song. ”

Wang Hongsheng, program director of CCTV Children's Channel, wrote: "Water Margin is a work that combines romanticism and realism, and has high artistic achievements.

Among them, the most outstanding artistic achievements are in the shaping of heroic characters.

The whole work has created at least twenty or thirty typical images with distinctive personalities, including Song Jiang, Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong, Wu Song, Li Kui, Gongsun Sheng, and so on.

Some of these images may not be flattering. But it's all flesh and blood, lifelike, and vividly on paper.

This work is worth perusing. ”

Guo Xuewen, director of the National Food and Material Reserves Department, wrote: "Water Margin is a very good work. On the whole, there is little introduction to the specific social environment in the book. But through the depiction of characters from all walks of life, and the relationship between them. A picture of the social life of the Northern Song Dynasty is very vividly and clearly presented in front of us. ”

Tian Shengsheng wrote: "The structure of the Water Margin is a criss-crossing duplex structure. The whole process of the occurrence, development and failure of the Yangshan Uprising runs through the whole story. There are stories of the main characters who are relatively independent and self-contained.

These stories themselves are structurally open and closed, each with its own characteristics, and are an organic part of the entire Water Margin story. There is no doubt that this is a completely new mode of creation. And, extremely successfully. ”

The pen wrote: "When we read "Water Margin", we are not only reading the whole process of the uprising of the heroes of Liangshan, but also reading one relatively independent story after another. One story after another continues, and one hero after another emerges in an endless stream, which is dizzying.

The classic characters portrayed in the whole work are not only the heroes of Liangshan. There are also characters like Wu Dalang, Pan Jinlian, Ximenqing and other characters, although there is not much pen and ink, but they are also extremely distinct, which makes people unforgettable. ”

Falling Leaves silently wrote: "There are similar events in "Water Margin", but although these events are similar, the plots are completely different. For example, Lin Chong bought a knife and Yang Zhi sold a knife, Wu Song fought the tiger and Li Kui killed the tiger, Wu Song killed his sister-in-law and Shi Xiu killed his sister-in-law, Jiangzhou robbed the law field and the Daimyo's mansion robbed the law field, and Lin Chong and Lu Junyi solved the problem, etc., the events are similar but completely different plots are written, fully showing the richness of life and the colorful characters. This is obviously one of the notable features of "Water Margin". ”

Qin Sheng wrote: "There are many events and stories in the Water Margin. These stories are so captivating and engrossing that you'll never forget.

For example, 'Punching the town of Guanxi', 'Wu Song fighting the tiger', 'Wu Song fighting and killing Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing', 'Outwitting the Birthday Gang', 'Three Dozen Zhujiazhuang', 'Drunken Beat Jiang Menshen', 'Making a Big Trouble in Feiyunpu', 'Blood Splashed Mandarin Duck Tower' and so on. "Water Margin" can be said to be a strange book. ”

In addition, there are many people who have nervous comments on "Water Margin".

Celebrities are commenting, and countless readers are talking about it.

Many topics related to "Water Margin" have appeared on the hot search list on the Internet.

The relevant heat is quite high.

At this time, let's go back and look at the beginning of "Water Margin".

Readers finally understand, why start like that?

At the beginning, it was said that in the third year of Jiayou in the Northern Song Dynasty, the plague was prevalent in the capital Kaifeng, and the people were struggling to make a living.

Emperor Renzong sent Taiwei Hong to Longhu Mountain to invite the Heavenly Master Zhang Zhenren to the imperial court to pray for the plague.

When Taiwei Hong arrived in Guixi County, when he visited the Demon Hall of Shangqing Palace, he did not listen to the dissuasion and opened the door of the Demon Palace, releasing a black gas.

This black qi rushed straight into the upper part of the sky, scattering into a hundred and ten golden rays of light, and went in all directions.

It is said that this is the origin of "Thirty-six Tiangang Stars, Seventy-two Earth-Shattering Stars, a total of one hundred and eight Demon Lords".

Some gods are babbling.

Why is it written like this? Readers didn't understand at first.

But now, understood.

First of all, these one hundred and eight demon lords are the one hundred and eight characters in Liangshan.

Then, why did Song Renzong send Hong Xin to the Demon Palace?

Because there was a natural disaster.

And after Hong Xin arrived at the Demon Palace, he didn't listen to the dissuasion and released one hundred and eight demon lords, which was a man-made disaster.

The connection between the two is that natural disasters cause man-made disasters.

Therefore, this is to show that the source of the story of the Liangshan Uprising is destined by providence on the one hand, and is very important and man-made on the other hand.

Just imagine, if Song Renzong didn't send Hong Xin to the Demon Palace. Can he lift that bluestone slab? If you didn't lift the bluestone slab, wouldn't there be no story of the heroes of Liangshan?

Therefore, such an opening is intended to explain why Liangshan had an uprising.

The Yangsan Rebellion was not only caused by providence, but was actually operated by man.

The Renzong period was the prosperous era of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Then, "Water Margin" obviously implies a very deep meaning, that is, to seek the root of the troubled times from the prosperous times.

It's just that what is the root cause of the troubled times implied in this prosperous era?

It is not explicitly stated in the book. But this question is worth pondering.

And then there's, what is the first character at the beginning of the chapter is Gao Qiu?

And he also used a lot of pen and ink to write the history of Gaoqiu's development.

This question has already been answered.

Its purpose is to set the tone of the work "Water Margin".

That is, in the Huizong period, the world of the Song Dynasty was in turmoil, and it was chaos from above.

If you don't write Gaoqiu first, but first write about the people of Liangshan that we are familiar with, it will become a great chaos in the world, and it will be chaos from below, so it is no wonder that the emperor and the court of the Song Dynasty will be in chaos.

In this way, the uprising of the people in Liangshan has a different meaning.

Therefore, the purpose of writing Gao Qiu first is to explain that in the court of the Great Song Dynasty, there are traitors and thieves, and there will be people who will make trouble.

Moreover, writing the history of Gao Qiu's development first is actually implying that the Liangshan Uprising led by Song Jiang will fail.

It also reveals why it failed.

Because they are not rebelling against the rulers. It's just that he wants to get rid of Gao Qiu and other traitors.

They were still loyal to the emperor.

Loyal to the Emperor. Then, he will definitely accept the court's recruitment.

In the end, he will definitely be killed by the imperial court's "borrowing a knife to kill" strategy.

How could such an uprising succeed?

Therefore, the opening chapter of "Water Margin" really hides a lot of content. It's worth pondering slowly.

You have to read it carefully.

Countless readers have been talking about it.

Li Xianyu stopped after watching the readers' discussions for a while.

Now it's time to think about the next work.

"The Water Margin is over. But the work he intends to bring into this world is far from over.

There are many, many works, and he will bring them.

And this matter is not in a hurry, one by one.
