Over the past century， scholars from China， France， the US， former Soviet Union and Mongolia have sorted and edited The Epic of langar in 15 chapters， 26 chapters and even more than 100 chapters with some differences in plots and characters.The Epic of jangar has been widely spread in Mongolian inhabitant regions. Even today， Jangar， Hongor and the like are still the heroes worshipped by the people. Nevertheless，only limited amount of people are fond of reading epics and watching the performance. For this reason， we attempted to adapt the epic into a novel to present to more readers.
