Features: This book is one of the "Jin Yong Collection" and is a tragic epic of a hero. Its protagonist is not the chivalrous hero who once wielded a sword and flute to roam the world, but a rogue and rascal named Wei Xiaobao, who frequents brothels and courts. Accidentally involved in a great battle between the Han, Manchu, Mongolian, and Tibetan peoples over the treasures hidden in the "Forty-Two Chapters Scripture," this book is Jin Yong's "final masterpiece," the longest in length, and also features a uniquely distinctive style.
