My favorite book is The Deer and The Cauldron. It was written by Jin Yong, who is a famous author of martial arts novels in China. The story tells us that even if you can't read, and are not beautiful or clever, but are honest to your friends, you will always know the right things that you have to do. If you honestly face yourself and trust yourself, even if you can't get money you will get things a lot more valuable than money.

My favourite book is 'The Deer and the Cauldron'. It was written by Jin Yong, who is a renowned author of martial arts novels in China. The moral of the story is that even if you are not particularly learned, nor beautiful, nor clever, but are honest in your dealings; know right from wrong; and if you know yourself and trust your own judgement, you will achieve wealth beyond money.

金庸 who is a famous author of martial arts novels in Hong Kong, it was the British commonwealth at time while he start writing the martial arts novel. He himself does not know martial arts. His novel 鹿鼎记 was used in making movies, both in Cantonese and Mardarin. But, there are several versions in Cantonese and several versions in mandarin, each version has its own concept. As far as I know, he is going to revise his previous martial arts novels with different ending. Additionally, he did not write English martial arts novels. His English novels were the translation from someone else, which changed the concept from his original chinese novels. I was shocked when I read your question that match someone who don't know Chinese and/or even not claimed in learning Chinese. Are you reading the English version ? You should read the Chinese version, it may give you a better idea.
