legend of the bat

[jin yong]

hi every one,

I'm reading the Vietnamese version of this Gu Long work, the storytelling started to state about a woman, she's the chief of the Hua Shan clan.

at the beginning of the story, there're some baddies, they wanted to challenge the Hua Shan's clan, so she soaked her hands in the boiling oil for saving her clan 's honnor

Well, I'd like to know her name in Mandarin, in Vietnamese translation is Kho mai dai su

Dai su means monk in Vietnamese.

Thanks in advance for your help

this is one of the chu liu xiang series, rite?

i think the nun's name is Ku Mei Da Shi...

[jin yong]

yep , this is the fourth installment of the series.

I really enjoy the fourth first stories about Chu Liu Xiang, it's one of my favorite Gu Long's novel

Any way, thanks again

[jin yong]

hi again,

the first chapter describes a fighting between Hu Tie Hua and a girl, she did the Hua Shan's swordmanship.

this girl entered a bathhouse for men, she wanted to find a thief, and she met Hu Tie Hua, she gave him a golden tael if Hu Tie hua could tell her where the thief is

Her name is Kim Linh Chi in Vietnamese, the man she wanted to find named Chang San.

I'm giving a résumé of the for my friend , I wanted to know the Chinese names, so I'm gonna ask you about the names

Million thanks

I haven't read "Legend of the Bat" but rather watched TVB version with Michael Miu as CLH. I have a feeling that Ku Mei is somehow similar to Mei Jue in HSDS in the sense that both of them are stubborn and they always think that they are great while actually they are not.

How come Hua Shan leader becomes female? In addition, she appears to be a nun or something like that. But, in SOD, this sect is not related to the religious.

I remember that adaptation! Which is why I think he portrayed the best CLX. Some of my friends prefer Adam Cheng's CLX, though.

[Thai guy]

Adam Cheng's CLH appears to be original. Apart from that, Adam Cheng seems to become a symbol of CLH maybe because he portrayed almost all versions of CLH. Anyway, it does not mean that he is the best.

In the GL world, Hua Shan leaders are usually female.

[rabadi]

...and E-Mei Leaders were usually male, right?

hi again,

i've just foud it from this web site http://www.gotterdammerung.org/film/...f-the-bat.html I think her name in Chinese is Linzhi , she wasn't a member of Hu Shan school , but she knows the Hu Shan swordmanship

[rabadi]

The link is *inaccurate* (you accidentally added a comma in the address). I fixed it here. Hmm, I didn't know Ti Lung also played as CLX in the past.

[Thai guy]

This is the first time I saw this version of "Legend of the Bat".

[jin yong]

thank you for your comment

I'm reading the second and the third chapters, LinZhi fought against Hu Tie Hua, since he mocked at her.

Then Chu Liu Xiang found a fake thief, and LinZhi wanted to kill the unguilty thief, then a man appeared , he told her not to kill that thief, the name of the man in Vietnamese is Dinh Phong.

Did any one here read this novel, and could you kindly tell me what is his name in Chinese ?

Thanks again in advance.

[TaiHan]

ok I don't really know chinese since I'm also a viet but I do know a bit.

Dinh Phong

the Dinh should be Ding, and the Phong should be Feng

so I think it is Ding Feng
can some people who read the chinese verison verify this since I'm not really sure

also the Kim in Kim Linh Chi, should be Jin like Kim Dung translate into Jin Yong. with the part you have given. I guess the full name would be Jin Lin Zhi

[jin yong]

Just found the link bellow

http://www.chinese-forums.com/viewtopic.php?t=1810

It explains how to translate a word in Chinese into Vietnamese

Any way, thanks for your anwser.

[Ren Ying Ying]

so I think it is Ding Feng

[jin yong]

Actually, I'm reading the 8th chapter

With your helps, I get ahead with my resumé little by little.

this chapter is about the murder on the boat, six mysterious coffins were put on the boat, there're only ten characters, and every day, one of the suspects was murdered.

Cau tu Truong: he always hold a leather safe near by him
Con ton Kiep Du: he's the master of BAch Lap Cuc, he isn't skillfull in martial art, but he has a lot of money, and he wanted to buy Chan San
BAch Lap Cuc: he's a bodyguard of Con Ton Kiep Du, he's a white skin, and he's quite skinny, Bach means white in Vietnamese
Hai Quat Thien: that's the owner of the ship
Huong Thien PHi: he's a friend of Hai Phat Thien, he was the first person who disappeared


Here're the other people on the boat
Chu Liu Xiang
Ding Feng
Chang San
Hu Tie Hua
Jin Linzhi

[jin yong]

just found some informations from this website

http://www.kungfucinema.com/reviews/legendofthebat.htm

I think Gou Zicheng should be Cau tu Truong, since in the Vietnamese version, this character is a secret agent, he wanted to capture some swindlers.

[jin yong]

Câu means hook in vietnamese, and Guo in Chinese, that's why I've just guessed the meaning of this

[Dagger Lee]

The New Adventures of Chor Lau heung that stars Miu Kiu Wai as the role is the same story as Legend of Bat.
