    Default The Wuxia Pic Game

    Just a game I thought would be fun to try out.

    How to play:
    1) Post a picture and a one word clue to describe a wuxia book.
    2) Other people try to guess what it is.

    Rules:
    1) The picture cannot be from an adaptation (movie, series, comic, etc) or of the actual book.
    2) The word cannot be part of a name or in the title of the book.
    3) You can post up to 3 pics and/or words (total).


    Let's start off with an easy one .

    I'm guessing it's Zhu Yuanzhang (I could be wrong), so - Heaven Sword Dragon Saber?

    You are right that the first picture is Zhu Yuanzhang but the second and the third is not.

    so - Heaven Sword Dragon Saber?
    No, you are wrong. Do not limit yourself to Jin Yong's novels. He is not the only wuxia writer.

    My guess...

    Little Dragon Girl was a master of the jade bees...
    She learned the bees control skills from her master.... of Ancient Tomb sect.
    Bees were used at the beginning of the novel to drive away the interlopers who came to "marry" the 18 year old girl at the "duel for marriage".

    She also taught some of the skills to Old Urchin.

    Q.E.D.

    the "bee" + "Tomb" = Little Dragon Girl of Ancient Tomb sect...
    ... of "ROCH"

    Since I don't (haven't) read many wuxia novels other than Jin Yong's...then I have no idea.

    Absolutely correct.

    The Legendary Siblings
    by Gu Long

    aka: Jue Dai Shuang Jiao [绝代双骄], Jyut Doi Seung Giu [絶代雙驕], Tuyệt Đại Song Kiêu, Tuyet Dai Song Kieu, Pendekar Binal, The Proud Twins.

    "Little Fish" is the nickname of the main character in the novel.
    ( for those who are not familiar with this book )


    Again...
    Sorry Guo Xiang for using the word "Fish"... since it's part of "Little Fish"'s nickname. I forgot the rule about not using part of a name until too late.
