Origin Story
东汉时期，王莽篡权，天下大乱，百姓流离失所，许多人逃入深山老林。其中，有几个流亡的侠义之士，他们看不惯王莽的暴政，便聚集在绿林山中，号召四方百姓一起反抗暴政。他们劫富济贫，深受百姓拥护，队伍不断壮大，最终成为一支声势浩大的起义军，为推翻王莽的统治，建立新的王朝做出了巨大贡献。他们的故事流传至今，成为家喻户晓的英雄传说。在那个动荡的年代，绿林好汉用他们的行动诠释了侠义精神，也成为了反抗压迫，追求公平正义的象征。
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped power, leading to chaos and displacement. Many people fled to the deep mountains and forests. Among them were several wandering chivalrous men who, disliking Wang Mang's tyranny, gathered in the Green Forest Mountains and called on the people to resist the tyrannical rule. They robbed the rich to help the poor, enjoyed the support of the people, and their ranks grew steadily, eventually becoming a powerful rebel army. They made great contributions to overthrowing Wang Mang's rule and establishing a new dynasty. Their stories have been passed down to this day and have become well-known heroic legends. In that turbulent era, the Green Forest Heroes interpreted the spirit of chivalry with their actions and became a symbol of resistance to oppression and the pursuit of justice.
Usage
