To understand "swallowing Li San", we must first understand one

Q: There are different versions of Swallow Li San, and each version has its own legend. That is to say, in that historical era, there were several swallows, Li San, not just one person. The people and the government attribute all kinds of headless theft to their names, and at the same time, some high-ranking informers also claim to be Li San, a swallow, which is convenient to cover up their true identity. Therefore, when a swallow Li San is captured and killed by the government, "Li San's crime" is often claimed or distorted in other areas. So strictly speaking, Yanzi Lisan has become synonymous with many informers who are active in Ping Jin, Hebei and northern Shandong.

Due to the age, lack of records and historical materials, it is difficult to tell the world all the stories of "Swallow and Li San". Only the most famous or credible case files and the lives of several so-called "Swallow Li San" can be listed.

Li Jinghua, Baoding, Hebei

The so-called real Li San is the swallow Li San recognized by historians, that is, Li Jinghua. From 65438 to 0895, Li Jinghua was born in Zhuozhou, Hebei. When he was young, he went to Cangzhou with his uncle. There are many people practicing martial arts in Cangzhou. He practices martial arts with his teacher. Climbing the wall tree is a piece of cake, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. According to his defense lawyer Cai Li, "Cangzhou people practice martial arts a lot, and he learned some martial arts there." When I was eighteen or nineteen, I went to Luoyang, Henan Province to perform with a wandering team from Cangzhou. When I was in Luoyang, something was lost in the team's residence. People suspected him and turned him out. He was born in Luoyang and lived by stealing without landing. "On one occasion, he was very angry when he saw Bai Jianwu, the commander of Luoyang garrison, bullying, so he sneaked into the White House at night, stole the revolver he was wearing, hung it in his back garden with an armed belt, and left a note saying," Li San, the swallow, will visit here. " This made Bai Jianwu very angry, but he was afraid that the news would hurt his face, so he didn't fight. Later, Li Jinghua stole several local tycoons, which aroused the resentment of local high-class celebrities, and the authorities arrested him everywhere. Li Jinghua went to Shaolin Temple anonymously to escape capture.

After coming out of Shaolin Temple, Li Jinghua wandered to Ping Jin for activities. His crime has two characteristics: first, he steals from the rich and never harasses the poor; Second, after committing a crime, there are always some traces left, such as following the practice of thieves such as flowers and white chrysanthemums in the novel, inserting a "swallow" folded with white paper in the place where the crime was committed, or leaving a note with the words "swallow" written on it, so as to show that wise people should not do shady things and do things with heroism. This made him famous, so he was nicknamed "Swallow Li San".

Stole, even the property of the mansion in the east section of Beiping Jixiang Hutong, the prime minister Pan Fu and the great warlords Zhang Zongchang and Chu Yupu. His stolen goods are sometimes distributed to the poor, but most of them are squandered by his eating, drinking, gambling and smoking. 1934, Li Jinghua was arrested again and put into Beiping reformatory. Seeing the poor treatment of the prison guards in the reformatory, he came up with an idea to let them let him out at night, and then he would come back after committing the crime, and the stolen things would be distributed by them. Later, he and Shi Haishan, inspector of the reformatory, became sworn brothers. So Li Jinghua came back to sleep during the day, went out to steal things at night, and made many cases without fear. However, he kept his promise and returned it in time after committing the crime, which brought many "benefits" to Shi Haishan and others. One night in August, Pan, the manager of Lihua Silk and Satin Village in Xidan, went to see an opera at Hafei Theatre. After Li Jinghua finished, he followed his rickshaw to Xidan Ertiao's residence and stole many high-grade silks and satins and clothes. Soon, Shi Haishan took a high-grade wool vest that Li Jinghua gave him to the laundry. The shopkeeper found that Pan Zhai lost it and immediately reported it to Pan. It turned out that Pan not only informed the police after the theft, but also informed the relevant shops and asked them to pay attention. The detective team collected the stolen goods from Shi Haishan and others and took them to the headquarters of the detective team in Yaoer Hutong outside Qianmen for interrogation. After learning the news, Li Jinghua hid on the roof of the interrogation room to eavesdrop and was caught by the detective team.

1934 65438+On February 9, Beijing Daily reported: "The court detention center was afraid that he would escape again, so for the sake of prudence, Li Sanpei was specially ordered to take wooden dog torture devices as a precaution." "Wooden dog", also known as "wooden dog", is an ancient wooden torture device. It is placed between the prisoner's legs, so it can't be stretched and separated freely. This is a primitive, barbaric and inhuman instrument of torture.

1935 65438+ 10, Beiping District Court tried the theft case of "Yanzi Lisan". After several twists and turns, the lawsuit reached the Supreme Court, which found Li Jinghua guilty of "robbery" and sentenced him to fixed-term imprisonment of 12 years. Li Jinghua refused to accept the verdict and appealed. When Mr Cai Li, then vice-president of Beiping Lawyers' Federation, defended Li Jinghua for free, he thought that "12 years was too heavy" and "even if it was heavy, it would only be eight years". However, before the Supreme Court's reply, Li Jinghua died at the age of 40 on 9 October, 65438+ 1936/KLOC-0.

In order to improve his skills, Li Jinghua studied with Shi Gandang, the master of Pan Tian Song Wan Temple, and his classmate, Wutai Mountain. Seeing that he grew up in a mountainous area, the Dharma will teach him eighteen kinds of martial arts, such as sword, spear, halberd, axe and hook, and also teach him eight steps to ascend to heaven and three swallows to copy water. This legend is amazing. Jumping up and down on the ground, jumping up and down on the water, just like a swallow skimming over the water, hence the name Swallow Li San among the senior brothers. After several years of hard training, my kung fu has made great progress.

Of course, Li Jinghua won't have the legendary flying skill of "swallowing three Superwaters" and can't swim on water. But his martial arts are really great. This can be seen from his goal. His crime target is not a small family, but a rich family with a deep house compound, high walls and strict security. In these places, he can come and go freely, and I have to say that he has extraordinary means. He can climb up against the wall with his head down like a gecko, holding some tools. You can also throw an iron claw with a long rope on a high wall or branch and climb up along the rope. You can also use the pedal wall to skillfully cross obstacles by strength. You can also easily pry open all kinds of locks. ...

Li Jinghua has been active in Peiping, Tianjin and once lived in the outer compartment of Youanmen in Beiping. Because of her unique skills, careful investigation before committing crimes and special potions, Li Jinghua rarely missed and committed many crimes. He once stole the mansion of the temporary ruling period, and also stole the property of Prime Minister Pan Fu, ruling Secretary-General Liang Hongzhi, Essien Joe Lo Jui-chung and others, so his reputation became more and more famous and made a sensation. After each crime, in order to show his skill and courage, the swallow also deliberately played with the powerful, imitating the practices of thieves such as flowers and white chrysanthemums in legendary novels, and inserted a "swallow" made of white paper in the place where the crime was committed to show his interest and not to do anything shameful. It is said that the nickname "Swallow Li San" has spread among the people.

The situation was very chaotic. Those in power are giants in this country, while those rich people are often ruthless. Therefore, the common people have a kind of affinity for Li Jinghua, who steals wealth, and regard him as the same figure as the moved Liangshan hero. Li Jinghua sometimes gave some stolen property to the people and was praised by the people. A newspaper once reported that Swallow Li San "got thousands of dollars of stolen goods and went to visit the Chenghuang Temple in early winter. When he saw that there were too many poor people in the neighborhood, he felt pity and gave them one or two yuan each, so he kept an eye on them. "

It is said that Li Jinghua was imprisoned many times, but with superb martial arts, he escaped many times. On the one hand, Li Jinghua doesn't know martial arts and is weak, but he is born with strong vertical jumping ability.

Swallow Li San is a thief, so the thief must have some bad habits, such as whoring and so on, but Swallow Li San let the bad habits kill him! Li San, the swallow, is going to steal something from an officer. It is very valuable. He is going to steal some money and sell it to the poor. At that time, the official position was very big, so the yard was also very big, but the official position sent people to surround the yard, but the flying skills of Swallow Li San were definitely not fake (ask your grandparents of the older generation! During the Republic of China), it was better to go in and steal something, but when Swallow Li San was running, someone found him and the army chased him. Just as he was about to run, Li San, the swallow, jumped on the roof of someone else's house (more than 3 meters high) and surrounded the house (however, with Li San's flying skills, he was sure to run away), but it was at this critical moment that Li San committed his fatal bad habit (opium addiction). So the army arrested him, prevented Li San from escaping, and handcuffed his hands and feet with the shackles of habitual criminals. 20 years in prison!

However, the common people know that Swallow Li San stole money from a rich family and gave it to the people, so they hired a lawyer to help Li San with the lawsuit! At that time, the law sentenced him to three to eight years at most, and Li San, a swallow, sentenced him to twenty years, so he died after winning the lawsuit! He was not killed, let alone shot. He is addicted to opium and has not smoked for a long time. He died suddenly in his cell. Flying skills are absolutely correct, but not the kind that can fly in martial arts. It can fly over the eaves and jump higher than ordinary people. )

Li Fen, Jixian County, Tianjin

Li Fen died in his birthplace. At that time, Wu Fupei, a great warlord stationed there, heard a lot about him and led the army to send him to a glass shed 100 meters long. In order to show the memory of the living for the dead, the mighty funeral procession carried the coffin forward and retreated three steps at a distance of about 1.5 Li from the cemetery. Under the condition that the coffin didn't land, the procession walked for seven days and seven nights, which caused a sensation in the local area. In 1950s, when capitalism was broken, ancestral graves were dug, and later during the Cultural Revolution, the cemeteries in Li Fen were still protected by local people. In the 1980s, during the period of reform and opening up, his graveyard was leveled by the contractor who contracted his fields. According to the local people, "In Nanmu's coffin, there is about half a coffin of copper coins under Li Fen's bones, which has been eroded by the sun and the moon and turned into a huge whole pile. The digger sold copper coins as scrap copper. Today, Li Fen's descendants still live in Cheng Jiazhuang, Shangcang Town, Jixian County, Tianjin. In memory of their ancestors, the wise men in the village built a monument again to inform future generations.

Shandong Yanzi Li Shengwu

commit a crime

Li Shengwu has a bad personality, does not follow the right path, and takes pleasure in stealing and whoring. After he left Wutai Mountain, he started committing crimes in Jinan on 1936. He sneaked into the provincial capital where Han Fuju, then the provincial president, worked, and happened to be caught by Han Fuju. Li Shengwu, with flying skill in her arms, easily climbed over the wall to escape under the heavy pursuit. After his whereabouts were revealed, he was captured, but Li Shengwu took advantage of the negligence of the guards and untied the ropes that bound his body with the "deboning technique" of Taoist internal skill, and escaped again. Since then, "Li Yanzi" has become famous in black and white and among the people.

After Japan invaded Jinan, Li Shengwu committed another crime in Quancheng on 1939, and was arrested by the Japanese occupation authorities and the pseudo-police station. Li Shengwu got rid of suspicion by luring others to commit perjury and threatening pseudo-police officers. Since then, he has gained a firm foothold in Jinan, committing crimes and even openly robbing. Because of numerous crimes and public grievances, the Japanese occupation authorities once again put on record for investigation. Li Shengwu was released for lack of evidence for bribing Japanese puppet traitors. But with a grudge, he sneaked into the Japanese gendarmerie headquarters at 1945 to steal. Fortunately, soon after the Japanese surrendered, Li Shengwu escaped arrest again.

After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Li Shengwu didn't change his bad habits. He also stole the underground traffic station in China, and was finally hated by many parties. However, with its superb flying skills, it escaped arrest many times. After Jinan was occupied by * * * in the middle section of 1948, the Municipal Bureau listed the arrest of Li Shengwu as one of its priorities. Li Shengwu didn't want to retire, but instead committed a crime against the wind and committed a murder case, which was finally won by the public security personnel. However, on the way to be escorted, he once again broke free from the rope by internal strength and shot and resisted arrest. After that, he used lightness skill and used the cover of people in the street to escape smoothly. At that time, the incident alarmed the Ministry of Public Security, and the Jinan Municipal Bureau was arrested by the superior informed criticism and ordered to solve the case within a time limit.

under arrest

During 1949, Li Shengwu and a geisha lived in Xuzhou, Jiangsu. The relevant departments were informed of the incident and organized forces to arrest it. Li Shengwu was locked in the house, unable to display her flying skills, and was finally captured. In June 65438+the same year 10, Li Shengwu was executed in Jinan. There were 35 thefts and 10 murders.

Evaluation: According to legend, Li Shengwu learned Taoism in his early years, with high lightness skill and internal strength. Practicing Buddhism wholeheartedly should have good results, and after joining the WTO, you will become a generation of martial arts experts. But his nature is insidious and vicious, stubborn and unruly, which will harm others and eventually harm himself. Even if you escape arrest, you will be cursed.

The image of Li Yunlong, the villain in the TV series Swallow and Li San, is mainly based on the deeds of Li Shengwu.
