My mother was the least favored concubine in the palace, and my father was the emperor himself.
As soon as I was born, I was sent out of the palace and dumped on a farming family in the countryside.
The farmer’s eldest daughter-in-law thought I was bad luck and abandoned me in a burial ground in the dead of night.
I thought I was doomed, but an old beggar found me and took me in.
The old man was not only a peerless martial artist, but the greatest in the world.
He took me with him as we fled famine and begged for food, all the while helping me search for my family.
Only later did I learn that my emperor father was the unfilial disciple who had driven him out of the palace years ago.
The language is weighty and meticulous, presenting the scene step by step, as if you can see an old man and a child walking south. During the long hike, the child learns and grows little by little, showing resilience in solitude, kindness hidden in indifference, and brilliance in silence. What a beautiful traditional Chinese painting sketch!
A beggar saved a baby from a mass grave! He begged for food to feed the child and tried everything to keep the baby alive! He wanted to teach the child how to survive!
The descriptions are detailed and the book feels very lifelike. A great book!
This is an amazing book, a truly rare gem! The beginning was somewhat interesting, but later it just felt like padding to reach the word count. It repetitive, gimmicky, and unoriginal, with a monotonous plot. I'm not reading anymore!
It's like an old man telling you a story over and over again, a bit heavy.
"The story of 'Going South' is now complete. Thank you for your support. My new books, 'The Coroner's Daughter' and 'The Mute Father,' are currently being serialized. Please feel free to check them out."
