270 Chen Yuan

The woman laughed faintly. "My name is Chen Yuan, you can call me Senior Sister Chen or Senior Sister Yuan. Senior Brother Shan, is there someone like Fifth Senior Brother amongst the two new juniors?"

Shan Yu walked closer with Kuang Shen and Nan Hua following behind him. "Yes, your twelfth junior sister might be on par with him."

"I would really like to hear how Senior Brother Yu would react if you say it in front of him." Chen Yuan smiled and stood up slowly. She took the stick beside her and used it to knock on the road in front of her.

Kuang Shen's expression changed when he saw that. He had only realized that Chen Yuan was actually blind when he saw this.

On the other hand, Nan Hua was calm. She had been wondering how Chen Yuan managed to guess their presence and it seemed that this young woman also knew martial arts. Not to mention, she must have an extremely good hearing considering that she was carrying the bamboo flute with her around all the time.

'Use the change in tune within room and outside?'

It was not completely impossible and Nan Hua herself also knew that.

Chen Yuan walked into the house and walked calmly as if she could see perfectly. If they didn't see the bamboo stick she was carrying, they would have never guessed that the woman herself was blind.

"I only have water here." Chen Yuan smiled apologetically. "I hope it's enough for you two."

"It's fine, Senior Sister Chen," Nan Hua replied crisply.

Traveling Doctor Liu walked into the house and looked around. He furrowed his eyebrows when he saw the condition in her residence. "You didn't change at all. Even the place where you live is still the same."

"I don't have any interest to decorate the house, Master. Decoration is for the eyes and for me, it would not make any different no matter what decoration I set in the house."

Hearing that, Traveling Doctor Liu could only smile bitterly. He couldn't refute it as what Chen Yuan said was the truth. For someone like her who didn't think much about decoration, it was just unnecessary addition that she would not need.

Chen Yuan put the cup on the table and Shan Yu stepped forward. "Let me pour the water, Ninth Junior Sister."

"Shouldn't the younger ones serve the older ones, Senior Brother Shan?"

"I can't possibly let you do that, can I?" Shan Yu's tone sounded helpless. He then proceeded to pour the tea for the five of them.

Traveling Doctor Liu beckoned for the two children to drink before they made their move. It was clear that they also didn't expect that Chen Yuan would still try to serve them in this kind of condition.

"What brings you here today, Master?" Chen Yuan asked softly.

"I come here to let Kuang Shen and Nan Hua learn under you. They might be staying in Wind City for a long period of time, so I think that this will be a good chance for you to pass your skills to them."

Chen Yuan chuckled. "Are you talking about my music skill or my massaging skill?"

"Both."

"In that case, I would like to inspect their hands first."

The two of them put their hands forward. Chen Yuan lightly grabbed Nan Hua's hand first and then kneaded softly. Her expression stiffened a bit as she sensed the hardened skin in some areas around Nan Hua's palm. Afterwards, she checked on Kuang Shen's hand and then moved back.

"The first one should be able to learn it. However, the second one might not be able to do as well as the first one," Chen Yuan summarized.

Traveling Doctor Liu arched his eyebrows. "You have high demands when it comes to the massaging skills."

"Didn't you take me to be your disciple because of this skill as well?"

"I do and I'll be teaching you more about what you have learned so far, Yuan'er. There might be some other herbs combination that you found useful for your massaging."

"I would like to, Master."

Afterwards, Traveling Doctor Liu listened to Chen Yuan's story of what had happened in Wind City recently and also about her work. Because of her blindness, she was not expected to do many things and the villagers here also sometimes helped her out. Though, there were certainly some unkind ones.

She lived off by playing music in some places and at other times, she would be providing her skill as masseuse that could alleviate pain. However, she strictly adheres to the rules that her customers had to be women.

She didn't want to create scandal.

As for those men who tried to take advantage of her?

Chen Yuan could easily kill them. Her skills as masseuse provided her with the necessary knowledge about human's body and also what she should do. She was not a person who couldn't do anything and was quite active.

Nan Hua had realized it when she touched Chen Yuan's hand. The woman in front of her also knew some martial arts. As for her weapon?

That would be that bamboo sticks.

And probably some other things.

"The wind is blowing," Shan Yu said after their medical discussion was over. "Wind City might not be peaceful for a long time anymore. Do you wish to move again, Junior Sister Chen?"

"No." Chen Yuan played with the cup in her hand as she smelled the fragrance of the medicine. Her senses were extremely keen because she couldn't see and had to rely on her other senses. There was no need to say that she was definitely the best among them in terms of smell identification.

"Then…"

"While Wind City might be in danger in the future, I believe that this city will stand strong." Chen Yuan looked in the direction of Shan Yu. "There are more powerful people in this city who could work."

"Are you talking about Feng Family?"

"They're one of them." Chen Yuan was silent for a moment then looked in the direction of her Master. "Master, are you worried about them?"
