I just want to repair a flute [Martial Arts]

Just as Yun Chuxiu thought, Bat Island is an island with no light at all.

Each guest who came to the island was assigned a room, but to put it bluntly, it was just a small stone room. Before entering the room, all the people were searched for anything that could be used to light a fire. The island did not even provide hot food, just because the fire would produce light. Almost all the servants on the island were good at identifying the location by sound. There was a small copper bell hanging behind the stone door of the guest room. If the guest wanted to go out or had other needs, they could ring the bell to call someone.

"If I had known this was the place, I wouldn't have dressed up before coming here." In the absolute darkness, Yun Chuxiu took off her coat, untied her hair, and lazily lay on the stone bed. She now knew that this place was not only a qualified den of money, but also a qualified home of comfort - there was an auction held every day in the hall on the second floor, where you could not only buy martial arts secrets, elixirs, rare treasures, but even the person you wanted. Staying in the stone room, you can also ask the servants to provide mellow wine and cold food, and in the underground cave, there are also docile and lovely prostitutes waiting for your visit.

"Tsk, I wonder if the one in charge here is the Wulin Alliance or the imperial court. If I reveal this place to them, I wonder if I can get the reward?" Yun Chuxiu raised one foot, picked up the wine glass on the stone table beside the bed, opened his mouth and drank a full glass.

"But since Niu is such a big blower, it should be easy for him to help me repair a flute. But you must be worthy of the South Sea pearl I spent on the invitations! I just don't know if other things can be bought here."

She had actually attended an auction before, but she had no interest in the martial arts secrets that made martial artists so crazy, so she left the hall halfway through. She touched her waist bag and took out a broken column-it was actually half of a broken flute.

Let’s go back to the early morning of a month ago, when everything started.

There is no calendar in the mountains, and you don’t know the year until the cold ends. I was bored in the afternoon, so I walked into my senior brother’s residence and saw a snow-white flute on the low table in front of the window.

"Snow Phoenix Ice King Flute! Senior brother didn't even take the Snow Phoenix Ice King Flute out of the house!" It was rare to see this jade flute left alone, so she couldn't help but come forward and fiddle with it with great interest.

Seeing the flute, she felt mixed emotions, unable to control herself. This was because her senior brother Yun Wuxin had obtained the flute from somewhere and had become obsessed with it, playing it day and night without stopping for even a day.

But when he played other flutes, they were all quite pleasant to the ear, just like a great instrumentalist, but when he played this flute, it was really too unpleasant! Just listening to the previous part would make people feel sick, or suffer from insomnia or nightmares, tossing and turning, and feel like they were living a life worse than death - Yun Chuxiu was the most unlucky among them, because as a junior, she lived next door to Yun Wuxin, and enjoyed the high-definition loop of the flute every day, which almost drove her crazy.

Thinking of this, Yun Chuxiu couldn't help but get furious. He exerted force with his hand - with a snap, the jade flute that seemed to be made of ice and snow and was pure white was broken into two pieces!

Time goes back to the present. Even though it has been so long since the incident, Yun Chuxiu still couldn't help but raise his hand and slap himself in the face.

That day, when she discovered that the Snow Phoenix Ice King Flute was broken, she felt dizzy and immediately rode out of the valley. Not only did she not dare to take any servants with her, she also rode her horse as fast as she could to the nearby town, just to repair the flute before her senior brother returned to the valley.

However, what was strange was that she had already walked out of the valley and was only one step away from the town, but when she took a nap at night, she woke up to find herself in a very unfamiliar place, as if the mountain road she had walked countless times over the years had changed beyond recognition overnight!
When she arrived at the nearby village, she heard people chatting about the Jianghu during dinner. She had never heard of the Daqimen, Wuzheng Villa, and Shenlong Gang before! She only knew the Twelve Linked Docks, but they said they belonged to the Fengwei Gang, which was different from what she knew. It was really confusing!
"Although it is said that a man should not talk about strange things, this is too much. I wonder if Master has returned to the valley in the past few days and if he has noticed my disappearance." She muttered a few words, playing with the wine glass in her hand with her slender fingers. But since she has come to this place, she always has a legitimate excuse, so she is not in a hurry to find a way to go back - she should repair this unlucky flute first!
So after the people brought her dinner, she did not send them out immediately. Instead, she stuffed a few gold beans into their mouths and asked them to tell their superiors that they wanted to meet the owner of the place, Mr. Bat.

Faced with her request, the servant calmly agreed, and it was obvious that this was not the first time he had done such a thing. And not long after, she got a definite reply - Mr. Bat was also happy to meet her alone.

Batboy sat in the dark.

This was nothing unusual. On this dark island, everyone was immersed in the cold darkness as if they were not yet born. But for some reason, Yun Chuxiu felt that he was more relaxed and comfortable than anyone else. He even felt contented, as if he could control the darkness in front of him.

——What kind of person can adapt to darkness so easily? Relying on the fact that no one could see her through the darkness, Yun Chuxiu did not comb her hair, but just put on a coat loosely, and sat in front of Mr. Bat. The latter chuckled and said softly, "Should I call you Miss Yun or Mr. Yun?"

His voice was low and hoarse, but it carried a certain indescribable authority and intimidating power. Yun Chuxiu understood that he must have recognized his gender from the beginning.

However, he had no misunderstanding of himself, nor did he think it was shameful to dress up as a girl like others did. He just said lazily: "It's up to you. I came to see you because I want to ask you for help with something." Because his identity was revealed, he simply removed his fake voice and used his real voice instead.

Mr. Bat smiled and said, "Many people who come here want to ask me to do something for them. At the auction yesterday, you only listened to half of it and left. I knew then that you would come to find me today."

His tone was so firm and confident that Yun Chuxiu was slightly stunned. Moreover, the stone hall used as the auction venue was still pitch dark, but he was able to notice someone leaving while presiding over the auction, and he could clearly tell that the person was himself! If he were to become an enemy, he would definitely be a very formidable opponent.

Fortunately, I only came here to repair the flute, and I got along well with him along the way. Yun Chuxiu secretly rejoiced, and at the other party's suggestion, he placed the broken Snow Phoenix Ice King Flute on the stone table in front of him.

"I need a craftsman to help me connect this flute. I can provide the materials myself, but it must be connected exactly the same as before it was disconnected!" Yun Chuxiu emphasized, while taking out a small cloth bag from his body, which contained the white dragon ball and winter jade he had prepared long ago, and pushed them in front of the Bat Prince. "This is not only a musical instrument, but also a weapon. When it comes to inspecting the goods, I want to try out the moves before paying the balance. Don't think you can fool me!"

Mr. Bat smiled again: "I never disappoint my customers, otherwise how can I expand my business? This little thing will never let you go home empty-handed."

"That's good." This was Yun Chuxiu's biggest worry, and being able to solve it was naturally the most important thing. However, after the matter was finalized, he then casually asked Mr. Bat about the method of treating the Yin-Yang compound poison and the fire poison curse.

"Yin-Yang compound poison..." Even with his extensive knowledge and strong memory, Mr. Bat couldn't help but ponder over this unfamiliar term for a moment, and then asked: "Where is this patient now? Is there any poison left?"

"That's not the case at all. He is far away and can't come here, but I have his blood here." Yun Chuxiu generously showed his collection - a blood-stained bandage in a box. "And his symptoms and reactions when he had an attack are all in this notebook. I'll give them to you as well." Anyway, this is not his world at all, and revealing these things will not affect anything at all. What if he can really find a solution?

"I didn't expect that Master Yun is not only a martial arts expert, but also a kind-hearted doctor. I'm really disrespectful." Master Bat took the bandage and notes and asked casually. "So, what price are you willing to pay for these things? You know... everyone wants me to fulfill their expectations immediately, but after all, I'm only one person, and I can't do it in two places."

Oh, now we have started bargaining. Yun Chuxiu muttered inwardly, then raised his head confidently: "It's very simple. I will give you the thing you desire most in this world."

"……what?"

"A pair of eyes that can see."
