The last 50 chapters of "Ancient Water Margin" have twists and turns in the plot and distinctive characters. Some scholars believe that it is the same author as the first 70 chapters.

The characteristics of the characters before and after are consistent. The main characters in the last 50 chapters can be judged by their words and deeds. None of the other sequels that can be seen now can reach this level. The world view reflected before and after is consistent; the artistic style is consistent; especially the language characteristics of the times and local characteristics are also consistent.
