Bandit Under Heaven

The second installment in the series of alternate-history bandit tales: Liu Sheng, known by his childhood name Xiao Guan'er, was a troublemaker from a young age, often disobedient and frequently beaten by his parents. His private tutor deemed him a hopeless case and expelled him from school. He then became a cowherd for a local wealthy family. His first grand life ambition was to become a bandit when he grew up. In a chaotic era of war and turmoil, where will he go? Friendly reminder from the relevant authorities: This book carries risks; proceed with caution. After much effort, including throwing tantrums and begging, the great literary master Cao Xueqin was finally persuaded to take a look and left a few comments: 'Pages full of absurd words, a handful of bitter tears. All say the author is mad, but who can understand the taste?'
