One of the four classic Chinese classics, the vernacular version reproduces the legendary story of Liangshan heroes in popular language. The novel takes the peasant uprising led by Song Jiang as the background and describes the whole process of one hundred and eight heroes from gathering in Liangshan to accepting recruitment and finally leading to tragedy. It has created classic characters such as Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, and Lin Chong, and the plot has ups and downs, which profoundly reflects the social contradictions and the people's rebellious spirit in the late Northern Song Dynasty.
