--Novel blurb--
1. Jinjiang version
Everyone knows that Chi Zhen mastered peerless martial arts despite being blind, but they don't know that she has lost all five senses and is practically helpless.
She fell in with bandits and made a name for herself in Nanping as "Red-Clad Third Madam Chi." The people of the country feared her so much that no one dared to ask for her hand in marriage.
On the eve of the sword-testing tournament, she was thrown into Pingtan Lake by a villain. After struggling ashore, she was astonished to discover that there was an island beneath her feet! Someone was imprisoned there, wearing the only color she could see: red...
*
As the adopted son of a master famed for his unmatched skill in medicine and poison, Chu Nanxun was made to swallow poison and left paralyzed on a small island in Pingtan Lake for five years.
Just as he was about to give up, the heavens sent a woman named Chi Zhen to save him.
From that day on, he became her shadow.
When he learned that Chi Zhen suffered from an old injury, he said, "Trust me. I won't ruin the reputation of a master famed for his skill in medicine and poison!"
When he saw Chi Zhen getting into trouble, he said, "Don't worry. I'm best at cleaning up messes!"
When Chi Zhen decided to steal a treasure from the imperial palace, he said, "Relax. I'll follow you through fire and water!"
When someone challenged Chi Zhen, he said, "Zhenzhen, hold them off for now. I'll train for another couple of days!"
Chi Zhen: "Hmm?"
2. Poetic version
A sword-testing tournament, long in the making, turned Chi Zhen from a renowned martial artist into a pariah. Born blind, she could only rely on her ears to seek the truth.
A marriage plot, laid with malicious intent, turned the radiant Chu Nanxun from a physician's son into a prisoner. With a leg crippled later in life, he only wanted to end his own life and put an end to his long misery.
By a stroke of fate, she saved him when he had lost all interest in life, and he helped her, who was forever stumbling in the dark. From then on...
They searched every mountain for medicine,
He stood by her through a treacherous world,
They unraveled mysteries and found the road ahead,
As the moon set and the sun rose, their wedding night came at last.
* An unconventional, red-clad heroine of the martial world x a gentle, easygoing, upright gentleman
* A story of mutual salvation and dependence

--Blurb below--
Duan Xingyun was sent to Luoyang by his master to deliver a letter. Before he left, his master told him there were two people in Luoyang he must never offend: one called "Cold Yama," and the other "Thunderbolt Flame."
The one called "Thunderbolt Flame" was especially skilled in Buddhist meditation. If he encountered her, he absolutely had to keep his distance.
There were plenty of people one shouldn't offend in the vast martial world. Duan Xingyun didn't take it seriously, until he met the person called "Thunderbolt Flame" and discovered she was a woman.
He'd always heard that the Shaolin Temple was renowned for its Buddhist meditation. Could this woman be a nun?
Only after spending more time with her did Duan Xingyun learn that his master hadn't meant meditation, but "clinginess."
She was truly one of the most difficult people in the world to deal with.
From then on, he gained a demanding lady who would drive him half to death.
* A quick-witted, unconventional heroine of the martial world x a free-spirited, sharp-tongued outcast from an elite clan
* A story about two sharp-tongued champions roaming the martial world together.

Theme: A healthy body is the foundation of everything.
Come on, Mrs. Author! I appreciate everything, my wife, who keeps writing more and more insistently! Go, go, go!!!
I didn't write clearly in my previous comment, but I actually like this story very much, especially the chapters where the heroine appears. The writing is neat and not laggy, and the heroine's image is established in just a few chapters, which is very vivid. The storytelling style of the story is also great, with a martial arts tone, and the narrative transitions are also very smooth. After Chu Nanxun appeared, the background of the story was expanded, and the next map was naturally opened. I was quite interested in the story behind it. The only thing I think is that Chi Zhen's feelings for Chu Nanxun came too quickly. Part of the reason is that his appearance was not stunning enough. Chu Nanxun's character was not very established. He kept telling stories. In the current 17 chapters, there are not many clues that can highlight Chu Nanxun's personal characteristics. He feels like a good old guy who is a bit stupid. Of course, logically speaking, it is impossible for him to be amazing under such circumstances. After all, he has been imprisoned for several years. Chu Nanxun's appearance greatly promotes the plot and is a necessary plot. But the setting that Chi Zhen quickly fell in love with him is not necessary. The story has just begun. There is still a lot of space to enrich the image of Chu Nanxun and gradually advance the relationship between the two. What I want to express is that love can be for no reason, but when reading novels, some readers like me still inevitably fall into the logic of "the male and female protagonists are not compatible". When Chu Nanxun has not shown much personality charm but Chi Zhen is already shining brightly, the setting of Chi Zhen falling in love with Chu Nanxun will be a bit abrupt and untenable. On the contrary, if Chu Nanxun only completes the process of opening a map and establishing a monster-fighting team as a friend when he appears, I think it will be more gripping, and he can be upgraded to a lover later. (I think the author should maintain his own style and don't have to care too much about the readers' opinions. The above is just my thoughts. Because I saw the author's reply to the previous comment and mentioned that the data in the article was not good, I analyzed it from the reader's perspective. No offense intended)
Fans of folded ears are here
It would be great if it was a female master. After all, in the female protagonist's situation, a male master would have a lot of inconveniences [Tickling]
Finished spreading flowers! I don't know when my wife will write "Chasing Wild Geese". I am very interested in the writing of this article. Can I wait for the update early next year? (Star eyes)
My feet hurt when I saw them. Touch Chu Nanxun.
To be honest, it's pretty good to be called Ah Zhen, haha. I don't know why I feel that the overlapping nickname is a bit disgusting (after ten years of killing fish in RT-Mart, my heart is already as cold as the knife in my hand)
Can a blind man still have flashes of vision?
The first article still has no outline. The author is really great. The story is smooth, the plot conflicts are reasonable, and the characters are plump and stand-up. It is a very good traditional martial arts novel. I look forward to new works.
This place feels like a small bug... I've obviously stayed with the miracle doctor for so long and never dealt with the bee venom on my hands. It's difficult to explain logically.
