This is the only short story wrote by Jin Yong. Because of its short length, you can’t really see Jin Yong’s full talent at story-telling. However, this translation can give you some idea of what a martial arts story is like. My clumsy translation can’t really do the original justice, but I hope I have stirred your interest enough that you will go out there and find out more about Chinese culture, history and legend. The process of finding out will not be easy, but I assure you, what you will find will never be dull.
