Synopsis

Northeast China in the 1980s, especially the Ice City, was a legendary jianghu. In those days, as the saying went, “Where the waters are shallow, there are plenty of turtles, and big shots are everywhere.” People often said that if you had to go out, you'd sooner run into a ghost than one of these men. Here, blood was shed in heroic struggles, honor was upheld with passion, power was pursued through treachery and intrigue, and blades and guns clashed without mercy. Everything in the world is complicated, and all the more so in this jianghu, where all kinds of people mingle and one arrogant upstart after another rises to prominence. This book offers a true account of the underworld lives led by Ice City's gangland bosses over more than a decade. It is filled with brutal rivalries, bloody battles, shadowy deals, biting winds, fiery passion, and tragic fates. Step into the real underworld and witness the true storms of the jianghu.
