After saying that astonishing statement, Yun Chuxiu moved into the new room arranged for him by Mr. Bat with peace of mind, and enjoyed the treatment that a true distinguished guest deserved.

He no longer needed to ask to see the Bat Prince. Instead, the Bat Prince would come to see him every day, drink and chat with him, and at the same time try to figure out where his medical skills came from and how he could repair a person's blind eyes.

He asked so many questions that Yun Chuxiu was speechless: "I didn't learn from a famous family, and my medical skills were not taught by my master, but this has nothing to do with whether I can do it. If you don't believe it, why don't you find some patients with the same symptoms as you and let me treat them first?"

At this point, he couldn't help but smile and said teasingly: "Of course, if I want to replace someone's eyes, I can't do it in the dark, on the contrary, it has to be a very bright place!"

But once the place changes, the other party’s identity cannot be concealed!
He was hinting at something, and how could Mr. Bat not understand what he meant? After a moment of silence, he suddenly changed his voice to a gentle and smooth voice: "When did you find out my identity?"

"When I first met the Bat Prince." Yun Chuxiu replied. "You act too comfortable and casual. Ordinary people don't react like this. What kind of person can adapt to the darkness like this?"

Of course it was a blind man! Their lives were already in absolute darkness, not to mention that he was an unusual blind man like Yuan Suiyun!
"But you are also amazing. You can see through my disguise even though you can't see." Yun Chuxiu touched her beautiful face and chuckled again. "No, no, it's just the opposite... It's because you can't see that you won't be fooled by my appearance."

Because of the special nature of his martial arts, there was no difference between a beauty and a withered skeleton in his eyes. But even he could not compare to Yuan Suiyun who could remain unmoved by external things!

Yuan Suiyun smiled slightly: "I also heard from Ding Feng that Miss Yun is very beautiful and fascinating."

He paused for a moment, and then continued, "Mr. Yun, you haven't been to the gentle land underground these days, but am I not treating you well enough? If you are not satisfied with women, there are men on Bat Island."

Yun Chuxiu: "..."

Yun Chuxiu didn't know what to say for a moment. He just didn't go to the underground brothel to play with women. How could this be considered abnormal?

But he really had no interest in the brothel. After thinking about it, he said, "I'm not very good down there, so I won't go down there and embarrass myself. Otherwise, I will be unhappy and others will be unhappy too. What's the point of this?"

Yuan Suiyun: “…”

Yuan Suiyun coughed and said, "Mr. Lian Yun, a doctor who is so skilled in medicine, can't heal himself?"

Yun Chuxiu was very calm: "I'm not a doctor." He was just an ordinary person who studied medicine for the people he loved. "This is due to the mental method I learned, it's not a big deal." He also made fun of the martial arts mental method he learned and found a suitable excuse.

Although he said so, considering the man's self-esteem, Yuan Suiyun did not ask any more questions. A few days later, he ended his business on the island ahead of schedule, took Yun Chuxiu on another boat, and left Bat Island from a different direction.

*
After several days of pretending to be a bat in the cave, Yun Chuxiu was finally able to see the light of day again. He happily moved a deck chair and lay down on the deck. He then ordered a maid to warm the wine and feed it directly to his mouth.

He was so relaxed that he soon attracted Yuan Suiyun who was sitting in the cabin. This blind bat prince was like an ordinary person. He didn't need anyone to lead the way. He came straight to him and stood beside him, saying with a smile: "You are so elegant to have a moment of leisure time."

Yun Chuxiu had already regained his male voice in front of him, so he also restored his male attire. When he first boarded the ship from Bat Island, he even startled Ding Feng, the disciple of Yuan Suiyun who was accompanying him. But he was not keen on dressing up on weekdays, and Yuan Suiyun, who was in charge here, could not see him at all, so he just casually changed into a white long gown, let his long hair down, and with his androgynous beautiful face, he looked quite unrestrained like a famous scholar in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

He closed his eyes and waited for the maid to pass the warm wine to his lips before he slowly drank it. Hearing this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Elegant mood? Wine without music is a real bummer! Mr. Yuan, I think you don't mind playing a song for me, right?"

He could sense the emotions of the people around him, and knew that Yuan Suiyun was in a good mood at the moment, and that his request was not a big deal, so he was naturally fearless. However, the servants around him lowered their heads, fearing that they would see something they shouldn't see.

Yuan Suiyun was not angry at all. On the contrary, he said gently, "Although your Snow Phoenix Ice King Flute is unfortunately broken, it is a rare treasure in the world. With this treasure, I believe that your vocal music attainments are not inferior to Suiyun. I wonder if I would be lucky enough to play a song with you?"

"Very good!" Yun Chuxiu immediately turned over and sat up, with a light smile on his face. "Then please lend me a flute, Master Yuan!"

He had been a disciple since he was young, and had studied under his master Xiao Donglou for many years. In addition to studying martial arts, he was also an expert in the six arts of a gentleman. Yuan Suiyun was originally a noble son of an aristocratic family. Although he was blind since childhood, he never gave up. He had some experience in playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. One of them played the flute and the other played the piano. The sound of Kunshan jade breaking was like the sound of a ringing pendant. For a moment, everyone around them was stunned.

Even when Yuan Suiyun stopped moving, Yun Chuxiu did not stop playing the flute. Instead, he turned it around and played another tune.

The long and distant flute music sounds like white snow falling all over the sky, so lonely yet so sad.

A full moon hangs quietly on the treetops, shining on the pure white snow. The moonlight sets off the white snow, as if there is only this silent pure white between heaven and earth!

After the song was over, Yuan Suiyun was silent for a long time before he asked softly, "Excuse me, Master Yun, what is the name of this wonderful song?"

Yun Chuxiu had already fallen back on the recliner like a boneless person: "It has no name, it's just something my master did in his spare time, and I can only play one-third of the exquisiteness of this piece of music." He didn't know why he suddenly wanted to play this piece of music, was it because he was not in front of his master, so there were no taboos? Or was it because... this piece of music was written about the purest white in the world, the ice and snow that melted quietly under the moonlight?
But when he thought of this, he couldn't help but smile first - using music to describe people has been a common practice since ancient times, and there is nothing wrong with that. But the person in front of him was a dark night without a single ray of light!

Yuan Suiyun sighed and said, "If it's just a third of it, it already has such an artistic conception. I wonder how extraordinary it would be if it was played by our master!"

Having said this, he paused and asked logically, "I haven't asked for your name, Master?"

"His name is Xiao Donglou." Yun Chuxiu gave him a meaningful smile. "I know you have never heard of his name."

They changed carriages at a busy port and arrived at a manor in the mountains smoothly. Surrounded by green mountains, plum blossoms everywhere, and more than a dozen houses with blue bricks and gray tiles dotted among them, in the middle of the manor was a lotus pond with rippling water. The scenery was so beautiful and magnificent that it seemed like a fairyland on earth.

Yun Chuxiu got off the carriage and looked up. He was stunned by the beautiful scenery before him. After a long while, he couldn't help but sighed: "Mr. Yuan, your family is really rich."

Although their family has never lacked money, the remote countryside, thatched cottages and waterfalls cannot be compared with other people's manors!

Yuan Suiyun just smiled. But Yun Chuxiu thought that he had such a fairyland-like courtyard, but he couldn't see anything at all. He suddenly felt pity for him and softened his voice and said, "Master Yuan is indeed the smartest person in the world."

"What do you mean by that?" Yuan Suiyun joked. "Could it be that in Mr. Yun's eyes, having a lot of money is the only criterion for being smart?"

"It has nothing to do with that. It's just that now that I'm here, you'll be able to see again soon. The first thing you see must be a rare beauty in the world!" Yun Chuxiu patted his chest and assured him. "Don't worry, after you recover, I will definitely choose the most beautiful place for you to see."

They entered the villa together and spent a night resting. The next morning, Yun Chuxiu received a blind patient and knew that this was the candidate that Yuan Suiyun had sent him to try out.

While checking the condition of the trembling middle-aged man's eyes, he asked softly, and learned that he had a high fever when he was young. Although he survived, he lost his eyesight. He suddenly understood a little, and turned to ask Ding Feng beside him: "Where are the replacement eyes for him?"

Ding Feng lowered his head, still not daring to look up at his beautiful face. He just replied respectfully, "Master has selected some people and has already negotiated the remuneration with them. If you have time, please follow me to the backyard to see which of them has the most suitable eyes."

"Yeah." Yun Chuxiu nodded, thought about it, and suddenly laughed again - the blind people yearn for light, but the healthy people are willing to sell their eyes for money. Why are things in this world always so contradictory, yet so interesting?

Ding Feng didn't know why he suddenly laughed, but when he heard the laughter, he couldn't help but look up at him. For a moment, he was in a trance again, and thought to himself: He is a grown man, but he has such a face. Does God love him or hate him?
