Jin Yong's Condor Trilogy is a sacred classic in the hearts of wuxia fans, and its passionate jianghu is filled with countless heroic figures.
The ideal of "serving the country and its people, the highest calling of a hero" is not only central to Jin Yong's stories, but also the very backbone of traditional Chinese culture.
Jin Yong's works, from The Flying Fox of Snowy Mountain to The Deer and the Cauldron, have kept the jianghu alive. How are they connected? What became of the main characters, and how did their stories end?
What happened to Zhang Wuji and the Ming Cult after the founding of the Ming Dynasty? Did the Nine Yin White Bone Claw end there? Where did The Sword Stained with Royal Blood and the Sun Moon Holy Cult come from? And what connections do The Smiling, Proud Wanderer and The Sword Stained with Royal Blood have to the Condor Trilogy?
Read A Journey Through Yunmeng's Jianghu, and you'll find the answers.
The book is nearing completion, all for the sake of a dream of Jin Yong's wuxia jianghu.
Note: This book is actually a rewritten version of The Tale of the Carefree Heroes, written ten years later. The broad story is the same, but the plot has been greatly expanded and made far more exciting. Interested readers can compare the two and see how much the author has improved :)
