    Thumbs down Bi Xue Jian (Crimson Sabre) on Channel U

    I have been watching this TVB series on Ch U. Seems like the story not quite the same as the original novel?

    Too much emphasis on Lord Golden Snake, and i dont recall alot of characters that is in the novel such as Qingqing, Wen Yi, and Ah Jiu?? (i suspect ah jiu is supposed to be the Changping princess, who later became a nun and is renamed Jiu Nan, but turn out in the series to be the daughter of the sect master of green bamboo sect). And i thought He Hongyao and He Tieshou is supposed to be one person, in the show they are 2 different persons. And i think the plot is very draggy and not very nice overall compared to previous TVB productions on JY novels.

    hi gou jing, i have the vcds so i have watched up to ep 20. the whole series is 35 ep. i do not read the novel, hence i am not able to comment how different it is. to me, however, the series is quite interesting though you are right, the plot is a bit too long [esp the "black-shirt man"] at times. do pop into the tvb to discuss about the series when you are free.
