Keep three things in mind when venturing into the jianghu:
1. Being poor is scarier than dying.
2. People in the jianghu have only two kinds of hearts: greedy hearts and hearts that refuse to accept defeat.
3. Once you're in the jianghu, you have no say in what happens to you.
The story begins at the end of the last century, when I was arrested for getting into a fight. I was 18 that year.
I'm a man of loyalty and feeling, but I really do live in this heartless jianghu.
The jianghu you can't escape, the bonds of loyalty you can't abandon: we're all ill-fated souls.
