Hi Jianghai,

by default PyMOL does a distance based bonding (basically when the VDW
radii of two atoms overlap, they get connected). To prevent that, you
need two settings:

# before saving the correctly bonded but distorted structure
set pdb_conect_all

# before loading
set connect_mode, 1

Cheers,
  Thomas
