Classical death is caused by many reasons. "Water Margin" wrote that he was shot by Shi Wengong with a poisonous arrow. Besides, there are other reasons: Chao Gai was forced to death by Song Jiang; Classical was killed by himself; Classics died for the artistic needs of Water Margin. Classical music was finally filmed by Shi Wengong.

You can refer to the following:

In the final analysis, Song Jiang and Classical have different political lines. Classical pursues "drinking in a big bowl, eating meat in a big bowl, distributing gold and silver on a large scale, free from the bird's breath of corrupt officials", and Song Jiang wants to win over. We can't use today's eyes to look at wooing and criticizing Song Jiang's servility thought. If we become fugitives, we will lose the faces of all our ancestors. Lin Chong's case is a proof. As long as there is a way out, we will never become an outlaw. When the Water Margin developed to a certain extent, the class nature changed. Let's take a look at thirty-six plough and seventy-two earth demons. The higher the ranking, the better the background. Therefore, Song Jiang's wooing policy conforms to the fundamental interests of the vast majority of people in Liangshan and has won the support of the vast majority of people in Liangshan. After all, classicism died of political struggle. Even if he is not dead, he has been abandoned by Liangshan, or his political career in Liangshan is dead.
