Creation background

Jiang Ziya's theory of beheading a general has long been told by poets, and the story of beheading a general took shape with the publication of Wu Wang's beheading Pinghua in Yuan Dynasty. There is an intermediate link from Wu Wang's Pinghua to the Romance of the Gods, that is, Biography of Guo compiled by Yu in Wanli period of Ming Dynasty, which uses a lot of folklore to further deduce and expand the story.

Wu Wang's Pinghua and Biography of Legendary Kingdom provide a general plot framework, some characters and plot units for the Romance of the Gods. On the basis of predecessors' creation and folklore, Xu et al. wrote The Romance of Ghosts and Ghosts.

There has always been a great controversy about the author of The Romance of Gods. The most common saying is Xu, because Xu's signature appeared in a version of the Ming Dynasty's Romance of the Gods. Xu's life story is unknown, except that he lived in the middle and late Ming Dynasty and was a native of Yingtianfu (now Nanjing, Jiangsu), nicknamed "Zhongshan Yishou".
