Reveal the truth, Wu Song's tiger prototype is just a rhubarb dog?

I believe many people are loyal fans of Water Margin, but it is a novel after all. Most of the intentions in the book are fictitious, but the prototype of the story can be found, for example, we often say that Wu Song killed the tiger.

In the early years of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, Wucheng IX Xu Bu wrote to Sichuan, resigned from his post and returned to his hometown, which made him famous for a while. Xu invited Suzhou hermit to be a private school teacher at home. Shi Naian lives in a beautiful house in Zhutang Town, and writes Water Margin while teaching. The locals call him "Nai Angong".

There are many stories about Shi Naian. It is said that many place names in Shi Naian Water Margin are taken from Zhutang area. For example, the three strikes of Zhujiazhuang are the highlight of the book, but in fact Zhujiazhuang is Zhutang Town. Wu Song's novel "The Great Tiger in Jingyanggang" is vividly written. It is said that Shi Naian was walking in Houyanggang behind Dazhaili Village when he suddenly saw a yellow dog sleeping under a pine tree. Ding Wu in Erzhuang beat the yellow dog away. After Shi Naian returned to China, he took this as a prototype to create, and changed Houyanggang to Jingyanggang, Yellow Dog to Big Bug, and Wuer to Wu Song.

According to legend, when Shi Naian was teaching in a building, he often taught students to draw. He has strict query requirements in nnuxExpress. He only teaches one figure painting at a time, and then teaches the other until the students finish painting. He taught students to draw 108 before and after. These paintings have different faces, different movements, different expressions and different personalities. The character 108 he portrayed is said to be General 108 in the year of Water Margin.

Liu Bowen once wrote two books in front of Emperor Hongwu, saying, "Shi Naian is ten times better than the minister. Teach him to be an official and he will get good grades. " Liu beat him, sent a letter to Jiangyin to call him back to Beijing, and called him several times. He just shirked his illness and refused the imperial edict. He has the ability to cross the sky. In addition to making a fuss, he can also treat diseases, divination, fortune telling, watching Feng Shui, boxing and so on.
