# 侠客行 Ⅰ (The Quest of Oriental Chivalry) / The Quest of Oriental Chivalry

> slug: `xkx2001` · browser status: `playable` · native port: `40021`

Produced by the "XiaKeXing Gaming Group," with a login screen claiming a 1996-2003 pedigree. Part of an early branch of the ES II engine family, sharing a more distant common technical ancestry with this project's rzrmud (Great Tang Journey West), bmxkx2001, and xuanjianlu (Record of the Mysterious Sword), though each has an independent game world — at the release level, scene files such as d/taihu/gumu/houtang.lpc carry the "Cracked by Roath" header shared with bmxkx2001/jym/xkm, while xuanjianlu belongs to a separate "Cracked by Kafei" batch (shared with xkx2000zxb); the two batches differ in header credit but share the same core engine. Set on "Xiake Island," new characters wake on the island's beach and are greeted by the "Rewarding Envoy" Zhang San or the "Punishing Envoy" Li Si, who guide them to registration before they set out into the jianghu proper. The world covers classic Jin Yong sects — Shaolin, Wudang, Huashan, the Beggars' Sect, the Xiuzhong Sect, and more — with a full apprenticeship, inner-cultivation, quest, and clan system; new arrivals must first follow a welcoming NPC to the island's registry and complete `register <email>`, a vintage anti-multi-accounting mechanism from the era.

## Run natively with FluffOS

1. Build a current FluffOS driver from https://github.com/fluffos/fluffos
   (native `build` / `build-debug`; see that repo's docs).
2. Download and unzip `xkx2001.zip` from the URL above (or clone
   `https://github.com/fluffos/mudlibs` and use `libs/xkx2001/`).
3. From the unzipped lib directory, ensure `config.fluffos` points
   `mudlib directory` at this tree (the checked-in file may contain a
   maintainer-local absolute path — edit it to your extract path).
4. Start the driver:

```bash
/path/to/fluffos/build/src/driver config.fluffos
```

5. Connect a UTF-8 MUD client to `127.0.0.1:40021`.
