Start from the Martial Arts

"Brother Fang Xiu, what did you say?" Bai Yu was stunned.

Fang Xiu knelt down and looked at the slap marks on Bai Jue's face. He gathered his true energy in his palms, heated them up, and applied them to her red and swollen face.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt, big brother." Bai Jue tried not to shed tears.

Fang Xiu gently rubbed Bai Jue's face, helping her reduce swelling and blood stasis, and then looked at Bai Yu.

"I don't always arrive in time... People, you have to rely on yourself. Even if you have to wait for Junior Brother Bai, you have to ensure your own safety first."

As he spoke, Fang Xiu stretched out his other hand and caressed Bai Yu's cheek.

His face became more swollen.

Bai Yu gritted his teeth in pain and looked at his sister who was trying not to cry. He clenched his fists and seemed to have made some determination before falling to his knees with a plop.

"Kowtow to my adoptive father! Please teach me martial arts. I don't want to be bullied by others anymore! I don't want anyone to bully my sister!"

"Brother?" Bai Jue tilted his head.

"Sister, kneel down quickly! From now on, Brother Fang Xiu will be our adoptive father!" Bai Yu pulled Bai Jue to kneel down.

"It doesn't have to be like this." Fang Xiu stepped forward to help him.

"I adopted you, firstly because I feel sorry for you being lonely and helpless. Secondly, for the sake of Junior Brother Bai. Outside, we just treat each other as brothers."

"Xiao Jue is kowtowing to his adoptive father!" Bai Jue was confused, imitating Bai Jue's example, and knelt down with a plop.

Fang Xiu helped Bai Jue up, and Bai Yu next to him knelt down again: "Thank you, brother Fang Xiu!"

"Get up quickly!" Fang Xiu went to help Bai Yu again.

"You go back and pack, see what you need to bring, and then follow me back to the county town."

"Yeah!" Bai Yu nodded heavily.

Fang Xiu called a carriage and gave the old fisherman next door a piece of silver to help look after Bai Xing's house.

After the two children packed their luggage, they returned to Shiqiaofang in the county seat and entered the courtyard of Fangzhai.

"The second room on the left and the first room on the right are both empty. Go in and take a look for yourselves, and choose whichever one you like."

Fang Xiu saw the two children standing awkwardly in the courtyard and gave them a gentle push.

The two children then walked towards the corridor, looking at their mud-stained cloth shoes, they stopped again.

"No need to take off your shoes! If you step on mud, just clean them up later. No need to be restrained, this will be your home from now on."

Fang Xiu waved his hand.

Bai Yu took her younger sister Bai Jue and walked towards the wing on the left.

"Junior Brother Bai, you should be able to really feel at ease now..." Fang Xiu sighed as he looked at the loquat tree on the right.

He adopted Bai Yu and Bai Jue as adopted sons, mainly on a whim.

Although he aims to seek immortality and seek immortality, he is determined.

But he also feels lonely.

He doesn't know what the future holds.

In this life, he has no family and no close friends.

Ma Sandao was half of his family, but Fang Xiu didn't dare to expose his secret.

Human nature cannot stand the test, let alone a world where force almost determines everything.

Besides Ma San Dao, Fang Xiu's best player is Bai Xing.

He was able to progress so quickly thanks to the treasure fish provided by Bai Xing.

Although he has always been wary of Shirahoshi, it was out of caution. He also wanted to treat Shirahoshi as a friend.

But even though he had saved Bai Xing's life, Bai Xing still betrayed him without hesitation at the critical moment.

If Bai Xing had any intention of fighting alongside him at that time, Fang Xiu would try his best to save him.

The adult world can be so disappointing sometimes.

Fang Xiu didn't like children in his previous life, but now, he feels that children are much better than adults.

Except for those who are born bad, most children are innocent and simple without being contaminated by the world.

"Just think of it as finding a companion." Fang Xiu chuckled.

Sooner or later, he will have to go to Fucheng to inherit Masandao's jailer establishment. He is not going to sell the house here, so he will inherit it to these two children.

While the two children were looking at the room, Fang Xiu calmed down and looked at the third page of the Book of Destiny, which was glowing with fluorescent light.

[Father and son inherit] More words appeared behind the fate.

[Adopted sons: Bai Yu, Bai Jue]

[Replaceable fate: warrior's talent, innocent heart]

[Lord: White Jade]

[Fate: Qualities of a warrior]

[Grade: White·First Grade]

[Effectiveness: The difficulty of breaking through the skin barrier is greatly reduced. During the training process of the skin-grinding realm and the meat-refining realm, it is easier to strengthen the Qi and blood than a warrior of the same bones (can be improved)]

[Destiny: Bai Jue]

[Fate: Innocence]

[Grade: Black·Not Graded]

[Effect: Pure and kind-hearted, innocent and innocent (can be improved)]

"One white and one black..." Fang Xiu nodded secretly.

Not everyone has destiny.

Among the dozen or so members of the Money Gang that day, four of them didn't even have a black destiny.

In addition, it doesn’t mean that one has great strength, but one’s destiny must be good.

Everything is relative.

Of course, it is certain that strong people have a higher chance of having a high-grade destiny.

"Big brother..." The two children returned to the courtyard after looking at the room. Bai Jue came to Fang Xiu and gently grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Xiao Jue, what's wrong?" Fang Xiu asked with a smile.

"Can I sleep with my brother? I'm afraid of the dark." Bai Jue whispered.

"Of course!" Fang Xiu nodded and said to Bai Yu, "Xiao Yu, then you and Xiao Jue will sleep in the right wing room. I will leave the other room empty. When you grow up, you can live next door."

"Thank you very much, Brother Yi..." Bai Yu said gratefully.

"By the way, in two years, when you grow up, do you want to practice martial arts?" Fang Xiu changed the subject.

"Can we...?" Bai Yu clenched his fists excitedly.

"Of course." Fang Xiu nodded, "But we have to see how your roots are first."

Roots are usually fixed at the age of twelve, which is easier to measure, but if you use true qi, you can test it in advance.

After speaking, Fang Xiu stretched out his hand, placed it on Bai Yu's lower abdomen, and injected true qi into his body.

"..." Fang Xiu was silent, sighing in his heart.

'Sure enough, there is no such thing as picking up two children at random and having superior or super roots. '

"How is it, brother, my roots..." Bai Yu was a little uneasy.

"Middle-lower grade physique, not bad." Fang Xiu patted Bai Yu's shoulder.

In fact, Bai Yu's physique is inferior.

After all, before following Bai Xing, these two children were raised by a widow, and they didn't even have enough food to eat, let alone meat, so how could they have good physique.

However, the physique has not been finalized. If they eat more meat and take more medicinal baths in the future, they will have the hope of improving to the middle-lower grade in the future.

"Me! And me!" Bai Jue raised his hand.

"Okay, I'll test you now." Fang Xiu tested Bai Jue again.

Soon, his brows frowned slightly, and then stretched out, and said with a smile:

"Xiao Jue is so powerful, you also have a middle-lower grade physique!"

"Great! I want to become a warrior too! And then beat the bad guys!" Bai Jue hugged Fang Xiu excitedly.

Fang Xiu glanced at Bai Yu, and stretched out his hand to hold him in his arms.

"Good boy..."

In fact, Bai Jue's physique is also inferior.

Fang Xiu found that both children were somewhat stunted, which was obviously caused by not eating enough for many years and lack of nutrition.

However, the younger sister Bai Jue developed much better than the older brother Bai Yu.

Obviously, Bai Yu was more than two years older.

In general, boys should have better physiques than girls.

Obviously, when this child was in trouble, he gave all the remaining food to his sister as much as possible.

"Let's go, wash first, and then eat!"

Fang Xiu boiled a large pot of hot water and gave the two children a hot bath.

After they entered the room with a blazing charcoal fire and got into the warm bed, Fang Xiu went out to buy them new clothes and new shoes.

......

"This is a little bit of a feeling of going home."

Fang Xiu carried the package home, and suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

Even if the time together was very short and there was no relationship at all, it was different.

Someone at home was waiting for him to go back.

When passing by the snack shop, Fang Xiu bought another twenty meat buns, eight pancakes, three roast chickens, and a pot of rice wine.

It cost him nearly a month's salary.

Wine and meat are still too expensive.

Ordinary fish is not a big deal, there are plenty of them in Yunmeng Lake, and they are not worth much.

However, chickens, ducks, and geese are much more expensive.

As for cattle and sheep, they are only affordable for the rich, and ordinary people may never have eaten them in their entire lives.
