Adoption brings disaster

I am the worst at asking for help. If I hadn't seen how Li Qinghan treated these two children so specially, I wouldn't have the face to say these words.

Now seeing Li Qinghan hesitating, I no longer have the courage to beg him for the two children. I can only pretend to be nonchalant and wait for Li Qinghan to refuse.

But Li Qinghan didn't reject me, he just looked thoughtful with a troubled look in his eyes.

I saw Li Qinghan looking at me from time to time as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. I also thought in my heart that Li Qinghan probably also wanted to pass on his martial arts to his two children, but just wanted me to speak up again so that it would be legitimate.

As I thought about this, I wanted to speak up and persuade him again, but I couldn't say it after trying several times.

Finally, he gave up and asked, "Master Li, what are you hesitating about? You know these two children's personalities better than I do. You also said that they are extremely talented. If they study hard, their martial arts attainments will be as good as yours. What's your dilemma? Tell us so we can discuss it together."

Li Qinghan saw me asking and said, "It's not a difficult thing. Although I want them to inherit my legacy, I want them to live a peaceful life even more."

Li Qinghan finished speaking, sighed, and continued, "I'm too famous in the martial arts world, and I've killed too many cult masters. If they learn my martial arts, not to mention the potential revenge, there will be endless challenges in the martial arts world. If anything gets hurt, how can I explain it to the child's parents?"

The two children were a little angry when they saw that I had begged Li Qinghan for such a long time in a very nice way, but he still rejected me.

After hearing what Li Qinghan said, the older children sneered, "Your Highness, have you been deceived by him? He doesn't know any martial arts, only some tricks to deceive people."

"Yes, yes, yes, he is a complete idiot. If he really becomes our master, I'm afraid he will be exposed in less than a day. He is so useless, how could he dare to agree to your Highness? Your Highness, please do not be deceived by him."

The two children had never practiced martial arts, so naturally they had no idea how terrifying Li Qinghan's sword intent was. The moment he intended to kill me, I even had difficulty breathing. This was enough to prove that Li Qinghan, known as the Clothesless Bishui, was not just a name.

When I told this to the two children, they didn't believe it, so I didn't say much. I just pressed my hands down towards the children to make them quiet down.

I saw the two children calm down after their indignation, and said to Li Qinghan, "I understand your concerns, but Master Li, you have to understand one thing. Not to mention the strong personalities of these two children, even ordinary children who really want to do something can overcome all difficulties and accomplish it."

"These two children are gifted with the ability to endure hardships, and those who survive great adversity will surely be blessed in the future. Naturally, their wishes will come true."

There was a hint of pride in Li Qinghan's words, as if he was bragging about his child to others.

"Your Highness, please don't say anything more. Even if his martial arts skills are the best in the world, I will definitely not learn any martial arts that Your Highness has to beg for in such a humble way."

"Brother is right. His Highness has already been very kind to us brothers. If His Highness were to suffer any more for us, we two brothers would be better off dying right now."

"Your Highness, my two brothers have already asked Grandpa, the military doctor, to teach us martial arts."

Before the child could finish his words, Li Qinghan said angrily, "What did you say?"

"Master Li, do you think you can live in peace without practicing martial arts or hanging out in the underworld?" I said, "If you don't hold this knife in your own hands, it's like a piece of fish on the chopping board, anyone can chop it a few times."

Li Qinghan couldn't have been unaware of this simple truth, but he was too concerned and ended up in a dead end.

I made this clear to put pressure on Li Qinghan, but concern made him confused. Not only did this not make Li Qinghan make up his mind, but it made him even more conflicted.

Seeing this, I continued, "If these two didn't have martial arts skills, not to mention the people in the martial arts world, just the corrupt officials, cruel officials, and local gentry bullies could easily take their lives."

Seeing the pain in Li Qinghan's eyes, as if he was about to give in, I added fuel to the fire and said, "I have heard that there are people in evil cults in the martial arts world who enjoy killing people, and they humiliate them before killing. I think that since Mr. Li has been in the martial arts world for a long time, he must know their methods."

Li Qinghan was a chivalrous man who had wiped out countless evil cults. He was naturally well aware of the cruelty of these cults. However, once a person's mind was confused, it would be difficult for him to make a decision.

Therefore, although Li Qinghan knew all these things, he still said: "As long as we are in this capital city and under the feet of the emperor, there will be no corrupt officials, cruel officials, gentry, bullies, and even less people from evil cults."

Li Qinghan seemed to be talking to me, but also seemed to be talking to himself.

"You must be getting senile. Why did our poor clinic open in this place? Isn't it because we offended that Xiaohu?" said the brother with a pout.

After hearing this, I thought to myself that this was not the reason why the poor clinic opened in this place.

The reason why the Poor Clinic was opened in this remote and mean alley is for the sustainable development of the Poor Clinic. I chose this place intentionally so that the Poor Clinic will not be closed down after my death.

Speaking of opening a business in such a filthy place, on the one hand, we won’t be targeted by powerful people, and on the other hand, it will also be convenient for the poor people living nearby. However, I didn’t explain it, but tacitly agreed with the child’s words, so as to force Li Qinghan again.

I added, "Rather than letting the two children learn some inferior martial arts and be unable to defend themselves against bad guys in the future, it would be better to let them learn your advanced martial arts. Not only will they be able to protect themselves, but they can also be chivalrous and do good deeds. It won't be a disgrace to the powerful Jade Water Sword. Besides, do you really have the heart to let the Jade Water Sword be buried with you?"

I don't know what words touched Li Qinghan, but he finally made up his mind to teach the Bishui sword technique to the two children. I took the opportunity to suggest that he teach other children with good character in the clinic some common martial arts so that they can have the ability to protect themselves.

The other children did not have such a deep connection with Li Qinghan, and he would not consider them so much, so they agreed without thinking.

Since Li Qinghan had acknowledged the matter, he felt relieved and felt much better. He jokingly said, "Your Highness Qianqiu, you are extremely greedy."

Having a disciple of Master Li under my wing would make it much easier for me to travel the martial arts world in the future. However, I refused to accept his words and simply smiled, saying, "I'm not learning your Jade Water Sword, so how can you say I'm greedy?"

"You haven't learned the Jade Water Sword yet, but judging by the way these two children adore you, once they learn it, let alone becoming your sword, even if you let them die, they'll probably die happily right away."

I ignored her and just smiled, "Even if that's the case, I only have your Jade Water Sword Technique. How can you say I'm greedy?"

After hearing what I said, Li Qinghan was a little shocked. He looked at me and said, "Don't you know that the apprentice of the Death Detective is also on your farm?"

"What is the Deathly Detective? This is the first time I've heard of it. Please don't wrongly accuse me." I was also a little confused and blurted out the words.

"That child also admires you very much. I originally thought you took special care of that child."

Li Qinghan looked at the two children standing beside me, staring at me with stars in their eyes, and said with relief, "I was mistaken. Your Highness is a man of high moral character. These children like you from the bottom of their hearts, and they are not being won over by you."

Li Qinghan's words also implied that the Death Detective was also a powerful figure, but I didn't know who he was, so I ignored Li Qinghan's sigh and continued to ask: "Who is the Death Detective you are talking about?"

Li Qinghan rolled his eyes at me and said with some disdain, "Even if you don't know about the Jianghu, you should at least know about the court. Didn't your elders tell you about this? How many corrupt officials fell into their hands? Even if you don't care about the court, don't you read the storybooks?"

I don't know if my original self knew about The Last Detective, but I definitely hadn't heard of it. I couldn't just say the system had changed, so I could only feign embarrassment and say, "I usually read romance novels, and rarely read other novels, so I really didn't know about these."

Li Qinghan was speechless after hearing this and continued, "This Death Detective was originally the son of a fisherman. When he was young, he accidentally mastered the Death Claw. It's not a high-level martial art, but it allows him to fly over rooftops and walls. He later joined the army as a scout. Through countless life-and-death battles, he perfected the Death Claw. Later, he joined the Six Gates, and the elders of the Six Gates further improved the Death Claw. Only then did he gradually rise to prominence in the martial arts world and the court, becoming famous throughout the world."

..............................

Li Qinghan and I were drinking tea in the room and chatting about the affairs of the martial arts world. Of course, he was mainly disgusted by my ignorance and was trying to cram me in. Outside, A-Da and the others were busy preparing the apprenticeship ceremony for these children.

Looking at everyone busy recruiting disciples, Li Qinghan sighed, "Your Highness is truly capable. Prince Gong has found countless talented children over the years and begged me countless times to accept disciples, but I refused. Yet, Your Highness has persuaded me to accept so many disciples with just a few words today."

After hearing this, I complained in my heart, come on, who can force you, Master Li? It was you who wanted to accept a disciple in the first place. I just gave you an excuse so that you can feel at ease if these two children don't have a good life in the future.

But I couldn't say this directly, so I could only politely say, "Master Li is really caring for the younger generation. He couldn't bear to see his peerless martial arts lost, so he chose some kind-hearted children to become his disciples. He is worthy of being called Bi Shui Wu Yi, and he is truly righteous."

Li Qinghan was quite pleased to hear this. We drank tea and chatted pleasantly, waiting for Ada and the others to complete the apprenticeship ceremony.

This apprenticeship ceremony was just a formality, but Ada and the others were really not good at it, and after a long time it was still a mess. If Li Er hadn't rushed over, who knows how long it would have taken.

After finally getting it done, the two children insisted that I sit on the right seat, as the right side is the most respected in Beishang Country.

But the one who accepted him as his disciple was Li Qinghan, so what was the point of me sitting on the right seat? Naturally, I tried my best to refuse. Li Qinghan didn't care about these empty formalities and forced me to sit on the chair on the right. I saw that I couldn't refuse, so I sat down and enjoyed the happiness of being the boss.

I am a leader now, and I have to give a speech at the opening ceremony. This is not a problem for me, and I have prepared a speech in my mind in no time.

Seeing that everyone had lined up according to the rules, I stood up, cleared my throat, and said, "Your medical skills were taught by the Zhang family father and son, and your swordsmanship was taught by the hero Li. Although I don't have a master-disciple relationship with you, since I am here, I have a few words that I hope the children will remember."

"Your Highness's kindness is heavier than Mount Tai and higher than the sky. I will never forget it in my lifetime. Please give me your advice." The two children spoke first.

The child behind also imitated the two children and said, "Your Highness, please teach me a lesson."

"As the sages said, the rich help the world, while the poor take care of themselves. I hope that when you become proficient in your skills, you can carry on the aspirations of the Poor Clinic, ensuring that the poor people of the world have access to medical care and that illness does not drive them into poverty. However, if your fortunes are bad, you must take care of yourself and not bully the weak or commit crimes."

After saying this, my eyes changed from kind to fierce, and I said sternly, "If any of you dare to do evil in the future, as long as I am alive, I will definitely destroy you and wipe out your family."

"Your Highness, rest assured. We will study hard and practice diligently to ensure that all the poor people in the world can be cured. Let the world appreciate your kindness and grace, and let the Poor Clinic prosper for generations to come."

I know that people's hearts are fickle. Whether they achieve success or face hardships in the future, there will always be some of these children who cannot make it.

But I still hope to plant this seed in the hearts of children. As for what kind of flowers will bloom in Beishang Country, I will leave it to God.

After I finished speaking, Li Qinghan said a few more words. Although the words were different, the content was basically the same. It was just about being a hero, punishing evil and promoting good, and practicing martial arts requires hard work and not slacking off.

After Li Qinghan and I finished our conversation, the children served us tea.

After drinking the tea offered by the children, the old man of the Zhang family said, "Your Highness, please give me a name."

"Give me a name?"

I looked at the dozen or so children kneeling on the ground. I felt like my brain was about to go out of control. I could only look at Master Li and said with a smile, "These are all your disciples. My giving them names is a bit too much. Why don't you give them names, Master Li?"

Li Qinghan looked at the two children kneeling in the front and said helplessly, "I thought of a name a long time ago, but these two children don't seem to recognize it at all."

I laughed out loud when I heard that. Suddenly, an idea struck me, and I said, "A doctor's heart is kind. Forget about the given name. I'll give everyone in the Poor Medical Clinic a surname, Ren. This will remind everyone in the Poor Medical Clinic to remember the doctor's heart of kindness and do their best to heal the world. As for the name, just pick one yourself."

I planted a seed, originally only wanting it to bloom a gorgeous flower, but I didn't expect that many years later it would grow into a big tree composed of the surname Ren. This big tree blocked the wind and rain for the poor people in the world. This is a story for later, so I won't mention it anymore.

Predict what will happen in the future, and listen to the next decomposition.
