Over The World, Beyond Heaven

Chapter 938: Xiao-Hei and Xiao-Bai (2)



After Zheng-Fu made his promise, the two little children immediately ran back to their home and happily waited. Both of them were very glad.

"Young Master Zheng-Fu, if you want me to adopt them, then I…"

"Never mind, Clan Leader Chong-Ge-Bo! I'll take care of them myself. I'll have someone from my force come to take them to the Heavenly Command Sect. Anyway, thank you for reaching out to help me solve this issue," Zheng-Fu interrupted before Chong-Ge-Bo could finish speaking. He planned to bring these orphans back to the Heavenly Command Sect.

"It's just a small matter, Young Master Zheng-Fu! I'm willing to help you!" Chong-Ge-Bo had changed a lot after knowing Zheng-Fu's strength. He seemed to be on good terms with Zheng-Fu and treated him well in everything.

"Even so, I must thank you. Well, let's put it this way, to thank you, I'd like to present this advanced Immortal knuckle to you. I hope you'll accept it." Zheng-Fu knew how to deal with this kind of problem. And he knew that if he gave something important like this, the Elephant Bear Clan Leader would definitely be nice to him and would do anything for him. "Please don't reject it!"

Ah!

Gulp!

Even though Chong-Ge-Bo wanted to deny it. But advanced Immortal weapons were not easy to find. This was also a rare weapon, similar to a knuckle. Most of the weapons that were created were swords and sabers. Other weapons were difficult to find due to the small number of people who used them. Manufacturers, therefore, rarely made them unless someone specifically ordered them. And with this kind of temptation, Chong-Ge-Bo could not resist it.

"Thank you, Young Master Zheng-Fu, for your kindness! I'll take good care of this knuckle!" Chong-Ge-Bo took the knuckle from Zheng-Fu, before thanking Zheng-Fu with satisfaction.

Umm!

Finishing his business here, Zheng-Fu went to the city's famous restaurant and then ordered two large sets of food. Because he had to bring one set to those children as he promised them. Besides, he had to send another batch to Ba-Ong, the ancient creature, and Monkey Hou-Jie within his secret dimensional space, too.

An hour passed in a medium-sized house that looked very run down, in the slum area of Comrade City...

"Xiao-Hei, Xiao-Bai, are you sure that Elder Brother will bring us food?" said a boy in the orphanage. He and the other children had great expectations for the food that the two children had mentioned.

"I'm sure that Elder Brother will definitely come as promised!" Xiao-Hei immediately replied with confidence.

"Yes! I believe that too. Elder Brother is a good man. He'll come for sure!" Xiao-Bai also trusted Zheng-Fu. She was sure that Zheng-Fu would definitely come with food.

"But it's been a long time now. We're hungry. If he doesn't come, what will we eat?" another girl added that she was very hungry right now.

"True! If he hadn't come, we wouldn't have had anything to eat this evening!"

"If that happens, it'll be your guys' fault!"

"Come on, kids. You guys should be united. If that man really didn't come, I'll go get some food for you all. Don't worry!" the female elder who raised these children said to stop them from fighting. Since she had raised them, she had hoped that these children would stay together and help each other.

"Is this an orphanage, sir?"

Hah!?

"Elder Brother has arrived!"

"That Elder Brother's voice, I remember!"

Both Xiao-Hei and Xiao-Bai were very happy and excited. Because they both knew Zheng-Fu's voice very well. When the shout of questioning sounded, they immediately knew.

"Then you two go open the door for him, Xiao-Hei, Xiao-Bai!" The female elder was also happy. Because if what these two children said was true, this orphanage would survive the crisis.

Creeeaaak!!!

"Elder Brother!"

"Elder Brother!"

The boy and the girl walked out and opened the door for him, shouting happily to Zheng-Fu.

"I brought the food as promised," said Zheng-Fu, smiling and holding up the bags of food for the two of them to see. Before he slowly walked inside the house.

"Good evening, Benefactor! Thank you very much, Young Master, for being so kind to these children," the female elder immediately greeted and thanked Zheng-Fu with a smile as he walked in.

"Not at all, ma'am, Grandma! I'm very willing and pleased. Here is food for everyone." Zheng-Fu handed the bags of food to the female elder with a friendly smile.

"Thank you!" the female elder nodded and said once again. Before she turned to Xiao-Hei and Xiao-Bai, "Take the food and put it on everyone's plates. It looks like everyone is starting to get hungry!" She handed them the bags of food.

"Yes, Grandma!!!"

"How many orphans are there, ma'am?" Zheng-Fu asked the female elder.

"About twenty children. Everyone has no relatives. I adopted them because they're pitiful and have nowhere to go," the female elder replied to Zheng-Fu. Her eyes looked very sad when talking about the children who lived there. She wanted to help them, but there was little she could do.

Umm!

"Xiao-Hei and Xiao-Bai must have told you about my adoption of the children, right? Grandma, what do you think about this?" Zheng-Fu nodded lightly in understanding before asking the female elder's opinion on the matter he proposed to all those children.

"Children probably need a warm home. But for me, I have been here a long time and am very attached to this place. Also, this house, my husband who passed away, built it himself. I don't want to leave here. If you would take them, I'd be happy." The female elder did not refuse that Zheng-Fu would take the children. But for herself, she could not leave this house. Because it belonged to her husband. Therefore, it had great sentimental value to her.

"Then I'll ask the children's opinions first. If they don't want to go with me and want to be with Grandma, I'll help improve this place and make it a warm place to adopt orphans. And I'll let someone come to protect everyone here. In addition, children living here will have the opportunity to receive a proper education, including the cultivation of martial arts."

Zheng-Fu understood the female elder's feelings. So, he did not intend to force her to go with him. He chose to transform this house and the surrounding area to become a proper orphanage that was warm and safe for children.

"Thank you, Young Master, for your kindness. I never thought heaven would send you to help us. How blessed this old lady and the children are! It's so great!" The female elder was so moved that she shed tears. She did not think she would get such a chance and such good luck. Before, she thought that soon her orphanage would not survive.

"No need to thank me, ma'am. I like helping people!" Zheng-Fu raised his hand and rubbed the back of his head as he answered, and smiled shyly when saying these words.

After asking about various stories, regarding this place and the children, Zheng-Fu asked about Xiao-Hei and Xiao-Bai's background. He felt interested in the kids. Because he sensed something special about these two children.

"Xiao-Hei and Xiao-Bai are siblings. The two of them were abandoned by their parents outside the city when they were little. I stumbled across it right around the time their parents left them. At that time, I wanted to ask them why they did that. But it was too late to ask. Because they hurriedly left as soon as they saw me coming.

"Apart from these two children, there were also name tags in their bundles. I think they might be names given to them by their parents. And besides the nametags, there was also this jade."

The female elder told Zheng-Fu everything she knew about the two children. And she also took out a jade slab and showed it to Zheng-Fu.

"Memoir Jade!?"

Zheng-Fu immediately knew what the jade in the female elder's hand was. Because jade like this was mostly used to record memories. And Zheng-Fu assumed that the two children's father and mother had definitely recorded some message inside the jade.

"Is this the Memoir Jade?" The female elder was shocked when she heard that. She had never known what this jade was. She only thought that the two children's parents would have left it to represent them. And she intended to give this jade to the two children when they reached ten years of age.

"That's right, ma'am! This jade is a Memoir Jade. I think their parents must have recorded some kind of message for their children. And the way to activate it is simple. Just pump soul energy into this jade," said Zheng-Fu, nodding lightly along with explaining about Memoir Jade to the female elder. And he knew that the two children were eavesdropping on his conversation with the female elder as well.

"Actually, it's like this! If this jade had a message from their parents in it, I must hurry to give it to them and tell them this matter. But I don't know if they can accept the truth. When they know it, they may…"

Flap!

Flap!

"Grandma, we can accept the truth! We want to know what our father and mother left behind in this jade. Please give it to us!" Xiao-Hei walked out with a serious look on his face.

And followed by Xiao-Bai, who had an equally serious and curious face.

"Kids!"

Sigh!!!

The female elder was shocked when she saw the two children walk out. She did not expect the two kids to eavesdrop on her talking to Zheng-Fu like this. But when she saw their serious faces, she could only sigh and looked at Zheng-Fu, who still had a calm expression on his face. And that made her understand that Zheng-Fu probably already knew that the children were eavesdropping on their conversation.

"I don't have the right to keep this jade. Because it was yours from the beginning, take it!" the female elder said, handing the jade in her hand to Xiao-Hei, who had approached first.

Blop!

"Thank you, ma'am, Grandma!" The boy accepted it and lifted the jade to take a closer look. He turned to look at Xiao-Bai behind him but said nothing. After the two of them made eye contact for a while, they both nodded in unison. Then they turned to Zheng-Fu and said at the same time, "Elder Brother, we want to know the message inside, sir. Can you help us activate it?" They both expected to know the message recorded inside. And Zheng-Fu was the only one who could activate this jade. The two of them then begged him for help.
