Righteousness? Righteousness! ——Reading the Water Margin

In the five thousand years of Huaxia, many cultures have crystallized fruitful results and radiated dazzling light. The "Four Masterpieces" are even more treasures in the gems. "Water Margin" is such a book.

As one of the four famous books, she does not have the exquisite prosperity of "Dream of Red Mansions", the magical fun of "Journey to the West", and the delicate and heroic "Three Kingdoms", but she has her own legendary and colorful.

"Water Margin" is the first Chinese novel written in vernacular, and it is a model of Ming and Qing novels. Created by Shi Naijun at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he described the story of the heroes of the Northern Song Dynasty, the heroes of the Liangshanpo, and the uprising of the heroes. Before I really started reading, I always thought that this was a novel about the peasant uprising, but I learned that "Water Margin" was actually the "negative textbook"! It tried to explain Song Jiang's capitulation line and distorted the peasant revolution with the idealistic theory of destiny. "The Quotations of Chairman Mao" once pointed out: "The book "Water Margin" is good enough to surrender. Do the opposite teaching materials, let the people know the capitulation party." Lu Xun also commented: "A "Water Margin", said very clearly: Because there is no objection to the emperor, when the army arrives, it will be recruited by the army, and the robbers who will fight for the country - not the robbers of the "Taiwanese Road". Finally, they are slaves." This remark is criticized by the time of Song Jiang. The head of the landlord class surrendered. Song Jiang was a loyal filial son of the feudal ruling class and a typical representative of the surrender of the author. The struggle between him and Gao Song is only a struggle between different factions of the landlord class. He changed the Juyi Hall of the coffin to the Zhongyi Church. "Jiyi" is the counter-terrorism of the heroes who formed the feudal landlord class; while "loyalty" focuses on "loyalty", which is to consolidate the feudal rule according to the Confucius and Mencius. This reborn the class line in Liangshan, not only expanding Liangshan, but also destroying Liangshan.

Chairman Mao said that in a class society, all cultures or literary arts belong to a certain class. Having said that, I am more inclined to her literary and artistic nature than the strong political color of "Water Margin". This is where the book succeeds – not only rich in thought content, but also mature writing art. For example, in the thirteenth round of the book, "The eager pioneer Dong Guo Zhenggong, Qingmian Beast Beijing Fighting Wu" is a wonderful description of the Qingmian beast Yang Zhi and the avant-garde Suo Chao. Among them, my favorite is to describe Yang Zhi's appearance: "Wearing a top-story frosty swaying iron helmet, sprinkling a green scorpion; wearing a pair of hook-embellished plum blossoms, a red velvet Hit the armor, the front and back of the animal face; the cage is a collar of white Luo color robes, with a strip of purple velvet flying belt; ankles with a pair of yellow leather boots. A leather target bow, several chisel arrows There is a smashing steel gun in the hand. The rider is the beam of the fire in the Liang Zhongli." And the description of the Suo Chao mount: "The ears are like jade, the eyes are like golden bells. It is like a Nanshan white-fronted tiger; a pile of greasy powder, like the North Sea jade unicorn. It is a rushing rush, jumping over the creek, losing weight, going far, and the habit of hurricane must be a dragon. Victory like Wu Xiangli Puma, match Qin Wang Bai Yuxi." Frequent use of metaphor, delicate image, the BMW's ambiguous look is full of enthusiasm. The description of Yang Zhi’s riding horse is not inferior: “The flames are divided, the tail is swaying toward the sun, and the body is sweeping the rouge, and the ears are facing the red leaves. Invading the morning is purple, the horseshoe is four points of the cold star; A roll of fire on the spot. Hugh words of fire and deity, really is the Shouting red rabbit. Suspected that the Nangong is a beast, such as the North Sea out of the dragon." The dumb, the metaphor of the image, with six things to make that splendid On the paper of the red depiction of the red, the glory of Liang Jun is vivid. The gorgeous writing makes people feel like a wonderful match is in front of you. As the book says: "Although I don't know how to be martial arts, I see the prestige."

The author's mature writing art is also reflected in the portrayal of the characters. The Shui Shuiliang Liangshan 100 and the other roads are also good, the villain is all right, the personality is vivid, and the story is broken. The book is one hundred and twenty times, but the content is numerous and indiscriminate, and the interlocking and fascinating ones are worthy of being one of the "Four Classical Chinese Classics". And these are also important factors in the success of the novel. Whether it is "juyi" or "loyalty", Liang Shanbo's plaque has always been "Yi", and the righteous character is the unified feature of the scorpion heroes, and also the place where they touched me. Take the flower and the monk Lu Zhishen, he and Lin Chong have only one side, but they are willing to help when Lin Chong is concealed by the people, and take care of them along the way and escort them to the vicinity of Zhangzhou, the "two disciplines" of Xue Ba Obey the post. Isn't this the embodiment of "righteousness"? At this point, Yang Zhi also did a good job. After he angered and killed the smashed smashed cow, he took the initiative to join the passers-by to the top. Dare to be a dare is also a shining point on his body! Even the "surrenders" Song Jiang is also highly respected of "righteousness." One of the heroes in the leeches, which is not the righteousness of life for their own life. The black whirlwind Li Wei also lost his life because of the righteousness of Song Jiang. Visible, righteousness, sometimes needs to be done with life.

In today's society, "righteousness" is living more and more difficult. If you don't talk far, let's take a look at some things in recent years. All kinds of "touching porcelain", the old man's fall, good people, and "Little Yuet" events, etc., are all distressing! In a small way, this is because some people do not carry forward the traditional Chinese virtues very well; in the big part, this is the sharp decline of the morality and consciousness of the entire nation! Fortunately, we also have "Calling the Brother" Zhou Chong, "The Most Beautiful Teacher" Zhang Lili, "The Most Beautiful Mother" Wu Juping, and Guo Mingyi, as well as Meng Peijie, Zheng Yilong and... This is willing to do "righteousness" with life. The character has not completely disappeared. Saving the meaning of the nation, we, and hope, our generation is hope!

Read "Water Margin", good fortune. A water scorpion tells us to minimize government corruption and prevent the emergence of "sorghum second"; tell us where there is oppression, where there is resistance; tell us that life is at the head of the world, and the road is unreasonable. However, a shui dynasty, a book that was praised as "detailed, detailed, and "historical" is the book", tells us, and that's all...
