该话题参考文本
Well, one of the legendary Chinese authors Jinyong passed away at 94 after a long illness, he sold 300 million martial arts novels. His best known series of books was The Legends of the Condor Heroes. I was just reading this a few months back, and I got completely immersed by the glittering martial arts fantasy, history, and romance he described.
Most of his stories were set in warlike society where martial artists roamed China, trading blows and upholding honor. Reading about knights who test their martial-arts mettle with sparring matches in roadside ale-houses and princesses with dark secrets who moonlight as assassins. These characters travel through the Jianghu, which metaphorically refers to an alluvial underworld of hucksters and heroes beyond the reach of the imperial government. His novels are largely known through the film and TV and video game adaptations. But for me the original books still retain a powerful hold on the imagination.
