Liang Shangjun Nie Xiaoqi

Nie Xiaoqi lived in the Yangtze River Basin in his early years. An extraordinary thief, he steals from the rich and helps the common people; he travels around and hangs pots to help the world; he is brave and courageous, and eliminates violence and brings peace to the people. He, Mr. Zong Erye and Mr. Song are known as the Three Heroes of the Yangtze River. They were born in response to the turbulent years and disappeared with the stability and prosperity of society. However, their legends still remain in the memories of the older generation. From their oral transmission, we can still be lucky enough to know something. In the early years, we can also get evidence from the incense ashes and paper money piled on their graves. Their deeds were widely circulated and their conduct was highly respected. I have known some of their deeds from my parents very early on, and I also wanted to sort them out. However, it suffers from being unsystematic and is afraid of delaying readers' understanding of the saint. It wasn't until the midsummer of 2023 when I went home to worship my ancestors that I discovered that their tombstones were buried among thorns. I can't help but sigh that the contributions of our ancestors cannot be forgotten just because of the changes of the times. I think the deeds of our ancestors are worthy of learning and carrying forward by our descendants. We will not let that dark history repeat itself, let alone let those turbulent years touch our land of China again. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
