History vs. fiction
Flower Monk
- novel inventionUprooting a weeping willow
The Water Margin depicts Lu Zhishen's astonishing divine strength, uprooting the weeping willow at Xiangguo Temple; this is pure literary fiction, as the official history "History of Song" contains no such person as Lu Zhishen. The original text reads: "把直裰脱了,用右手向下,把身倒缴著,却把左手拔住上截,把腰只一趁,将那株绿杨树带根拔起。" (Chapter 007 of The Water Margin)
- novel inventionCapturing Fang La alive
Some versions of the novel (such as the 120-chapter edition) claim that Lu Zhishen captured Fang La alive, which likewise contradicts the historical fact recorded in the History of Song, Biography of Han Shizhong, that Han Shizhong's troops captured Fang La. The original text records that Han Shizhong pursued him to Qingxi Gorge, "即挺身仗戈直前,渡险数里,𢭏其穴,格杀数十人,禽腊以出。" (History of Song, Biography of Han Shizhong)
