The Juyi Hall was seated, and Gongsun Sheng turned around and left after seeing it, and Liangshan had no brothers from then on
Gongsun Sheng, the Taoist priest who first lived in the Taoist temple, his existence can be said to be pivotal in "Water Margin". An in-depth analysis of this character is essentially a deep understanding of Song Jiang.
Gongsun Sheng, who was originally engaged in Qing cultivation, chose to break away from the Taoist temple and join the strongman group in Liangshanbo to confront the government. What is the meaning behind this decision?Why did he abandon a peaceful and quiet cultivation environment, but he was willing to survive in the treacherous Liangshanbo?Could it be that Gongsun Sheng saw something unusual in Song Jiang's eyes?
After meeting Song Jiang, Gongsun Sheng chose to stay in Liangshanbo without hesitation, and it seemed that he was out of control. Could it be that he discovered an unspeakable secret in Song Jiang?
The Jizhou clan of Xuzhou, named Gongsun Sheng, has Xi martial arts since he was a child and has a chivalrous heart. He deeply felt that the court was dark and corruption was rampant, which made him unable to enter the government to serve the country and encountered a bottleneck in his career. When he was disappointed, he decided to seek the path of immortality and went to Erxian Mountain to learn art and practice from Luo Zhenren.
Under the disciple of Luo Zhenren, Gongsun Sheng has obtained a superb Taoist inheritance, can call the wind and rain, scatter beans into soldiers, and can soar through the clouds and fog, and be clever. But after completing his studies, his ambition to serve the country was ignited again. After getting the consent of **, he left the mountain gate and roamed all over the world, aiming to free himself from the dust, find a like-minded partner, and jointly realize the wish of saving the country and helping the people.
Gongsun Sheng heard that there were two remarkable figures in Shandong, one was Song Jiang, who was known as "timely rain", and the other was Chao Gai, who was known as "Tota Heavenly King". So, he embarked on a journey to Yuncheng County, hoping to get to know these two destined people.
In Yuncheng County, he accidentally learned of the existence of Chao Gai, a bold and benevolent man. Gongsun Sheng had a plan and expressed his willingness to befriend Chao Gai with 100,000 pieces of gold, silver and jewelry. When Chao Gai saw this Qingdao man who was dressed in a hundred clothes and was dusty, he thought that he was here to beg for food, and readily agreed to Gongsun Sheng's request and took him into his home.
When Gongsun Sheng stated in detail his plan to save the country and help the people, Chao Gai hit it off and introduced him to Liu Tang, Wu Yong, the three Ruan brothers and others. So, the seven people worked together to formulate a plan to rob the birth gang, which was the beginning of the "Seven Stars Gathering" after the inheritance.
When Yang Zhi escorted the Shengchengang through Huangnigang, Chao Gai and others took the opportunity to successfully rob him. Disaster followed. The day rat won the **, and the government launched an arrest operation. After Song Jiang, the commander of Yuncheng, learned the information, he quickly informed Chao Gai and made him evade in time. Gongsun Sheng showed his magical powers in Shijie Village and successfully repelled the pursuers, but also put himself in a desperate situation.
Faced with the dilemma of having no way out, Gongsun Sheng suggested that Chao Gai and others defect to Liangshan to avoid being pursued by the government. Wang Lun, the leader of Liangshan, did not welcome them, and after some warm hospitality, he persuaded them to leave. At this time, Wu Yong took the opportunity to instigate Lin Chong to kill Wang Lun, creating an opportunity for Chao Gai to become the new leader of Liangshan. Since then, Gongsun Sheng, Chao Gai and others have started a new life on Liangshan, laying the foundation for the later gathering of heroes and heroes.
After observing Yangsan for a while, Gongsun Sheng had doubts about the future of Yangshan. Although he had the ambition to serve the country, he saw through that Chao Gai and his companions did not really intend to rebel against the imperial court, but pursued the ideal of living freely and freely on the green forest and mountain. He did not agree with the expansion of Liangshan, because this was not the path he pursued to eliminate harm for the country.
Gongsun Sheng did not leave Liangshan in a hurry, he decided to stay and observe, and tried to influence Chao Gai, hoping to get them to really embark on the path of eliminating harm for the country. Or, he's also looking for other partners, hoping to find someone who can truly understand his ambitions.
Soon after, Liangshan ushered in a figure that Gongsun Sheng did not expect - "timely rain" Song Jiang. Chao Gai welcomed Song Jiang's arrival, regarded him as a life-saver, and expressed deep respect for him. However, Gongsun Sheng was suspicious of Song Jiang, believing that he did not really have the determination and strategy to fight against the government.
His understanding of Song Jiang began as early as when he first arrived in Shandong, and he heard rumors in the rivers and lakes about Song Jiang's righteous act of "timely rain". Gongsun Sheng once thought that this might be the like-minded person he was looking for, but when he arrived in Yuncheng County in person, he found that Song Jiang was actually a person who was determined to pursue a career and deliberately set up a good image for himself. His title "Timely Rain" is more of a strategy to give help to others on a regular basis in the hope of getting their support at critical moments.
Unlike Gongsun Sheng's expected partner to eradicate harm to the country, Song Jiang is more like a person who pursues official career and fame. He did not choose to defect to Liangshan after the catastrophe, but accepted the fate of being assigned, believing that he could turn evil into good fortune and return to his official career. This made Gongsun Sheng see through Song Jiang's true thoughts and had a deep disappointment in him.
Watching Liangshan drift away and gradually fall into Song Jiang's schemes, Gongsun Sheng felt guilty. He had long understood that the Liangshan brothers would become cannon fodder for Song Jiang to seek fame, and Liangshan's true brotherhood during the Chao Gai period had gradually drifted apart.
So, when Chao Gai served as the leader of Liangshan for Song Jiang, Gongsun Sheng understood that he had no place here. He endured his disappointment, made an excuse to visit his mother, and quietly left, pursuing the path in his heart.
Gongsun Sheng re-embarked on the journey of cultivation, and he returned to the ** Luo Zhenren Sect again, completing the unfinished fate and calamity. Luo Zhenren deeply understood his decision and encouraged him to follow his own path.
And on Liangshan, Song Jiang received the support of Chao Gai and began his plan to prove his strength to the imperial court. He attacked Gaotang Prefecture, but in the face of the spell that was too guarded and cheap, Wu Yong was helpless. Chao Gai sent Li Kui and Dai Zong to invite Gongsun Sheng back, and Luo Zhenren also supported Gongsun Sheng to go out of the mountain again.
Gongsun Sheng once again cast a spell to help Song Jiang successfully rescue Chai Jin and made great achievements. He did not stay in Liangshan, but continued to follow Luo Zhenren's cultivation until he returned to seclusion. In Liangshan, Song Jiang became the new leader, and he began his grand cause of trying to make the imperial court look at him.
Song Jiang, who was sitting on the main seat, was full of energy, smiling, and had the demeanor of a righteous man. Gongsun Sheng has already seen through the hypocrisy of this "timely rain". He understood that this was not a real act of righteousness, but an ingenious strategy, a game set up for personal gain.
In the joyful atmosphere of Juyi, Gongsun Sheng chose to leave. He knew that staying by Song Jiang's side was destined to become a sacrificed chess piece and a cannon fodder to pave the way for other people's ambitions. He was not blinded by the strong righteousness, and wisely chose to protect himself, leaving the path that might be doomed.
As time passed, the atmosphere on Yangsan became more subtle. Lu Zhishen, Wu Song and other careful people also saw through Song Jiang's true face and chose to leave one after another. They do not want to become pawns of others, let alone pay with their lives for their personal ambitions.
Chai Jin, Li Ying and other heroes also saw through Song Jiang's thoughts, left early, and returned to their hometown to live a peaceful life. They understand that following this man who is a righteous man but has selfish interests will only lead to a difficult situation and a happy end.
On Liangshan, as the true colors of the righteous gatherers gradually appeared, unity began to disintegrate, and the shadow of discrete quietly descended. The laughter on the top of Juyi Mountain seemed to be unable to hide the bleak atmosphere, and a gathering place of heroes and heroes became the beginning of disintegration. In the midst of all these changes, Gongsun Sheng became the first hero in "Water Margin" to get a good ending, and his intelligence and determination allowed him to successfully avoid a storm that was about to erupt.
