Suddenly discovering strange rules in "Water Margin"
The more impressive the nickname, the weaker the skill. Battle power ceiling: Lu Junyi → Jade Kirin, nothing special. Two Heroes of Foot Combat: Wu Song and Lu Zhishen → The Pilgrim and the Flowery Monk, simple and unpretentious The Five Tiger Generals: Lin Chong, Guan Sheng, Huyan Zhuo, Dong Ping, Qin Ming → Leopard Head, Broadsword, Double Whips, Double Spears, Thunderbolt, Ordinary
Water Margin and Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils are actually from the same era.
When Xiao Feng committed suicide, Emperor Huizong still had six years left to ascend the throne, and the time when Wu Song fought the tiger was exactly twenty-one years after the Yanmen Pass incident. If we're talking about the same worldview, his second and third brothers are still alive and well.
This is a bit outrageous. Xiao Feng, who captured a general amidst a vast army, is fighting Wu Song to a draw... Could a tiger even withstand a single slap from Xiao Feng? This over-enhancement completely breaks the logic. Should we over-enhance tigers and other characters too?
Xiao Feng was indeed best suited to transmigrate into the Water Margin; his happiest days were spent drinking and eating meat with his brothers.
Dude, Jin Yong's martial arts novels and Water Margin share the same worldview.
Guo Jing was a descendant of Guo Sheng. Xiao Feng died around 1093-1094, and Wu Song fought the tiger around 1115-1116, only a little over 20 years ago... Go find Duan Yu and Xu Zhu, and you'll already know the ending.
Could Wu Song really fight Qiao Feng to a standstill? No one else could.
My lord, times have changed!
Take my shot!
A review of various versions of Xiao Feng
The first one is naturally the version starring Leung Ka-yan, who played Xiao Feng in the 1982 version of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils". I haven't seen this version, so I won't comment on it.
Is Water Margin written in a low-brow martial arts style or based on mythology?
If the Demon Star is unsealed, then Qiao Feng will be utterly defeated. If it were written like the low-level martial arts novels in the TV series, then Qiao Feng could easily slaughter everyone.
The sworn brotherhood between Xiao Feng and Wu Song shouldn't include Xu Zhu and Duan Yu. If Wu Song becomes the fourth brother, how can people in the martial arts world call him Second Brother Wu? This could easily be written as a reincarnation of Xiao Feng, with his past memories only in his heart.
