The Complete Story of Water Margin

"Water Margin" is one of the four famous classic Chinese novels and one of the traditional storytellers. It has been loved by the people for hundreds of years. "Water Margin" was divided into two major systems during its circulation. The most common one is the system for the recruitment of heroes in Liangshan, which is divided into seventy chapters (Jin Shengtan cut in half), one hundred chapters, one hundred and two chapters and other different versions. It mainly describes that in the late Northern Song Dynasty, 108 heroes headed by Song Jiang gathered in Liangshan, Shandong Province and were recruited by the court to become a tool for the court to suppress peasant uprisings. At the same time, there is another version of "Water Margin" - the Mei family's collection. Also known as "Ancient Water Margin" or "Ancient Water Margin", it is considered by some researchers to be an ancient but long-buried version of "Water Margin", and even the original version of the author of "Water Margin". In the fifty chapters after Meishi's Water Margin, the heroes of Liangshan fought many bloody battles with bullies and officers and soldiers. At the end, they were still not recruited, and no one of the one hundred and eight generals was lost. Therefore, it is welcomed by many readers. Many famous storytellers have told "Water Margin", but most of them only tell a series of stories about the heroes before the Liangshan gathering, and rarely touch on the stories of being recruited and conquering the rebel army. Even if there are storytellers who tell the later stories, they will only talk about "Conquest of Fangla", and rarely mention the three stories of "Conquest of Liao", "Conquest of Wangqing" and "Conquest of Tianhu", and no one has mentioned the Mei family's collection. The "Water Margin" stories narrated by Wang Fengchen this time include all of them, even divided into mythological and non-mythical versions, allowing you to understand all the "Water Margin" stories in one album, so it is called "The Complete Story of Water Margin"
