The heroes of Liangshan in "Water Margin" have different reviews among the people.
likes Wu Song the most, but most people only like Wu Song, who "awakened" after the Mandarin Duck Tower;
There are also many people who like Lu Zhishen, because Lu Zhishen is a rare chivalrous person among the heroes of Liangshan;
There are many people who hate Song Jiang, because he accepted Zhao'an and caused many brothers to die during the expedition to Fangla;
There are also a lot of people who hate Wu Yong, because this guy has no bottom line in doing things, and he is a typical pit goods.
Only Lin Chong is a special case, there are many people who like him, and there are many people who hate him, but to be honest, Lin Chong is the best man in line with the human nature of the public!
Lin Chong's "popularity"
In "Water Margin", the role of Lin Chong is actually a mirror for most people. In Lin Chong's situation, Lin Chong had done well enough, but the opponent was too strong, which led to the dismal ending of Lin Chong's final family ruin.
At that time, Lin Chong came over, but he recognized that it was Gao Yanei, who was in charge, and relented first.
Many people thought that Lin Chong was too cowardly, and he should have beaten Gao Yanei at that time.
So, we might as well think about it, when you are a high-ranking military officer and have a good wife, do you dare to beat the adopted son of the emperor's cronies and important ministers at the level of defense minister?
Lu Zhishen killed a slightly powerful Zheng Tu and had to flee immediately, Wu Song mistakenly thought that he had killed a small official in Qinghe County and fled to Chai Jinzhuang for refuge, according to the current anti-corruption "fight tigers, fight flies" specifications to compare, Lu Wu's opponent is not even a fly, Lin Chong's opponent is a proper "tiger" level.
Sun Dingdao: "Who doesn't know that Gao Taiwei is in power, relying on his strength and strength, and he does everything in his house, but someone has a small offense, so he sent it to Kaifeng Mansion, if he wants to kill, he will kill, and if he wants to chop, he will chop it, but it is not his official mansion." ”
In the face of Gao Taiwei's might, does Lin Chong, who has a good wife, want to teach Gao Yanei a lesson in order to fight for a breath, and then bury the whole family together? Lin Chong, who does not have a "God's perspective", obviously will not do this, this is a mature man's choice!
Assuming that this happened in today's society, some people would actually make the same choice as Lin Chong, and some people would be willing to sacrifice their mothers for their "beautiful" future! Gao Yanei casually used money to send him away, and he might become an upstart.
Lin Chong smashed Lu Yuhou's house to pieces and sent the lady downstairs.
Lin Chong took a sharp knife to untie his wrist and ran straight to Fan Lou to find Lu Yuhou, but he was gone. But when he came back, he waited in front of his door for a night, but he didn't see him go home, and Lin Chong returned by himself.
In the face of Gao Yanei's continuous pressure, Lin Chong didn't dare to find trouble in Gao Yanei, so he could only find his accomplice Lu Qian to vent his anger.
This kind of behavior is indeed not "heroic", but it is also a common human choice!
Of course, what Lin Chong really wants to clean up is Gao Yanei, but how to end up after cleaning up Gao Yanei?
Therefore, Lin Chong could only express his hatred on his accomplice Lu Qian to vent the anger in his heart.
In this matter, I believe that most people will make the same choice as Lin Chong.
In real life, after being scolded by the leader, I don't dare to scold the leader, and there are fewer people who go back to find trouble with unrelated colleagues? Lin Chong is looking for trouble with his accomplices, and in reality, many people's anger is unreasonable bullying.
Lin Chong saw that tears were raining down, and he said, "Up and down!" I have no enmity with you two in the past, and I have no grievances in the near future. How did you two save the villain, life and death will not be forgotten. ”
But no one wants to die if they are concerned, especially this kind of wronged person.
Some people may think that Lin Chong's crying seems too cowardly, but in fact, under the same circumstances, most of the people who are concerned will be the same as Lin Chong, hoping to continue to live through intercession, which is human nature!
Lin Chong's value
In the whole "Water Margin", Lin Chong is the closest protagonist to contemporary readers.
In the early days, Lin Chong was cowardly, cried, and helpless, but it cannot be denied that he is the only hero in the whole book who is extremely attached to his family, and he is a good man who has flesh and blood even in the present, and can arouse strong empathy from the public.
The incident in which Lin Chong was forced to go to Liangshan determined the righteous tendencies between the imperial court and Liangshan.
When Lin Chong, a good family man who can represent most people's humanity, is forced to go to Liangshan, and the dark side of society is exposed to the sun, Liangshan naturally becomes the righteous party.
It is precisely because Lin Chong is too close to the public that people who sympathize with Lin Chong will like this flesh-and-blood character very much, and those who hate Lin Chong will use the "heroic view" to belittle Lin Chong, and they can't see their more cowardly self at all, but they blame Lin Chong.
Therefore, in reality, there is only one "Gao Yanei" between many people and Lin Chong. If there is Gao Yanei, I believe that most people will not perform better than Lin Chong!
