Jin Yong's story was set at the end of the Ming Dynasty. It mainly described the growth of a young man named Yang Guo in the Jianghu. However, the background of the story was not a specific dynasty but a fictional world set according to the plot. In this world, there were many differences between history and reality. Different characters and events had their own unique settings and explanations.
This was because " Heroes " was not a novel written by Gu Long or Jin Yong. It was the continuation of a novel by Shi Naian, a novelist of the Ming Dynasty, known as the Water Margins. "Journey of the Chivalrous Man" tells the story of a chivalrous man who is highly skilled in martial arts and takes risks in Jianghu. If you want to know more about the book, I suggest you consult the relevant literature materials or consult professionals.
The 14 works created by Mr. Jin Yong include Book and Sword, Legend of Flying Fox, Snow Mountain Flying Fox, Tactics of the City, Eight Forms of Heavenly Dragon, Legend of the Condor Heroes, White Horse Roaring in the West Wind, Smiling Proud in Jianghu, Deer and Cauldron, Book Sage, Journey of Chivalrous Men, Sword of Yue Woman, Sword of Blue Blood, and The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre.
