Thirty-six Tiangang and seventy-two Earthly Demons made up the One Hundred and Eight Heroes of Liangshan. The reason why it is said to be "made together" is because for the author Shi Naian, it was necessary to create one hundred and eight heroes. It is not easy to write eight characters with different images, let alone write their stories brilliantly, which is even more difficult. Therefore, if you read the original work carefully, it is not difficult to find that Shi Naian has a deep understanding of some characters in the book. The handling is very perfunctory.

For example, the character Tao Zongwang, the "Nine-tailed Turtle", has a head, a face, and a nickname, but does not even have an independent line. Another example is the character Ding Desun, the "Tiger with an Arrow," who has no character in the book. The one who showed the signs was bitten to death by a poisonous snake; and the veterinarian "Purple Beard Uncle" Huangfu Duan had almost no independent scenes and was considered a dispensable character. But this article is not about them, but the story. Other far-fetched characters are people who seek death and go to Liangshan.

It is said that the heroes of Liangshan were forced to go to Liangshan, but these five were not. It seems that they were forced to go to Liangshan, because they originally had He had a great future, but he was ruined by himself.

1. The King of Pagodas

The reason why Song Jiang became the later Lord of Liangshan was because he was a philanthropic person who liked to make friends with heroes from all over the world. For this reason, the "King of Pagodas" Chao Gai The same is true, Chao Gai is even more generous in character. After all, he is a small rich man, and his family is richer than Song Jiang.

As a small rich man, Chao Gai can make friends with these green forest heroes by giving them small favors, and he can settle down and live in peace. He does not need to have too many deep friendships to involve himself.

But Chao Gai planned with Wu Yong, Liu Tang and others to rob the birthday card. In the end, the matter was exposed, which was tantamount to cutting off his own life with his own hands. With no choice but to go to Liangshan, what do you think a rich man like you is doing hanging out with those desperadoes?

2. Little Whirlwind

"Little Whirlwind" Chai Jin is really annoying. Everyone who has read the original work knows that he was indeed bullied, but bullying him That person wasn't originally coming for him, but for his uncle. It was only natural for Chai Jin to help his uncle. Judging from the situation at the time, if Chai Jin was a flexible person, he could continue to be his uncle unharmed. A small whirlwind will not cause the grass to fall.

In fact, Chai Jin should turn a blind eye to the incident in Chai Huangcheng. Why? Just because his identity is too sensitive, he is a descendant of the former royal family. He does not keep a low profile, but instead shows off his so-called iron certificates when trouble comes. Is this appropriate? Zhao Kuangyin's attempt to seize the Chai family was somewhat unjust and unjust. Later emperors would wait for you to make mistakes so that they could be wiped out. Therefore, Chai Jin should be patient and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth.

Everyone knows the result later. The descendants of the royal family were left behind. In fact, Chai Jin’s pursuit of death had already begun when he made friends with heroes all over the world. A descendant of the previous royal family did such a thing. , doesn’t it seem to the emperor that he is “recruiting troops”?

3. Nine-Patterned Dragon

Shi Jin is a heartbreaking hero. As the first hero to appear in the book, in the eyes of most readers, he is regarded as The "protagonist" is portrayed by Miao Zi, as if "Water Margin" was originally intended to be about this stupid young man who ventures into the world.

In fact, Shi Jin did not have to enter the world. As the son of Shijia Village, he had a good family background, but he was not a man who could live a peaceful life. He wanted to practice martial arts, so Taigong Shi helped him invite many masters to teach him martial arts, which also paved the way for him to go astray in the future.
