Chapter 3 Ishimura Ishiyasu
"Yes."

Seeing that Shi Linhu understood what he meant, Shi Yunfeng nodded gently, and then explained: "Your child is about to be born, this child can be a good companion for him."

"Besides, the child is still so young, so milk and other things are essential."

"I········"

When Shi Linhu heard this, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face at first, but when he saw the child's peaceful face while sleeping, he couldn't say no.

Finally, he nodded heavily and said, "Chief, I am willing to adopt this child. I will treat him as my own..."

But Shi Linhu paused halfway through his words, and then said: "From now on, he is my child, my Shi Linhu's child."

Seeing this, Shi Yunfeng's face was also full of smiles: "Then give your child a name!"

"Name..."

When he heard that he was asked to name the child, Shi Linhu was stunned again and looked at the others.

To be honest, he really has no idea about naming. Even the name of his unborn child was chosen by his wife.

Facing Shi Linhu's gaze, the onlookers began to express their opinions.

Some say he was called Shizhong because when he was discovered, he was inside a golden bell.

Some say his name is Shi Lei because he was found on the rubble.

Some also say it is called Shi Liu, because their sacrificial spirit is a willow tree, and they were able to find him only with the guidance of the sacrificial spirit.

In short, there were all kinds of names for the time being, but there was no definite plan.

"Shi An!"

Suddenly, while everyone was still talking, a soft female voice sounded, and then a woman with a big belly came to Shi Linhu with the support of two people.

Seeing the person coming, Shi Linhu immediately stretched out a hand and supported the other person, his face full of concern: "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to rest at home?"

"My child, how could I not come and see!"

In response to Shi Linhu's question, the woman simply rolled her eyes, then looked at the people around her and said, "Everyone, I want to name this child Shi An."

"As everyone knows, we are in the wilderness, constantly on the brink of life and death. Therefore, I hope this child can live in peace and safety."

After saying this, the woman stroked her bulging belly and looked tenderly at the baby sleeping in Shi Linhu's arms.

As soon as the woman finished speaking, there was a chorus of agreement from all around.

The villagers nodded in agreement, thinking that the name "Shi'an" was both simple and profound in meaning, and it expressed everyone's most sincere blessings for the child.

"Okay, let's call him Shi An!"

Among them, Shi Linhu expressed his stance directly. He held the baby tightly in his arms, his eyes flashing with determination and joy: "From today on, you are Shi An, my son, Shi Linhu, and a member of our Shi Village!"

At the same time, the baby, little Shi An, seemed to sense his father's call and fluttered his eyelids slightly. Although he didn't wake up, a faint smile played on his lips, as if he was also accepting this new name and this new home. Seeing this, Shi Yunfeng nodded in satisfaction. Then he turned to look at everyone and announced loudly: "From today on, this child is a member of our Shi Village. His name is - Shi An!"

As Shi Yunfeng finished speaking, warm applause and cheers rang out all around.

The villagers all expressed their congratulations to Shi Linhu's family, and were full of anticipation and love for the new life.

In the following days, Shi An successfully became a little star in Shi Village. Adults and children alike liked to gather around him, play with him, and tell him stories.

Shi Linhu's family loved Shi An very much. They tried their best to provide Shi An with the best living conditions, which were even better to a certain extent than those of their biological son Shi Hu, who was born later.

In fact, the reason for this is not only because of Shi An’s life experience, but more importantly, although Shi An is young, he is very sensible.

On weekdays, he touches his stomach when he is hungry, touches his mouth when he is thirsty, and even knows to call out when he needs to go to the toilet. Who wouldn't like such a sensible child?

Not only that, even though he is just a baby, he seems to be able to understand what adults say and is full of curiosity about everything around him.

So much so that whenever Shi Linhu and his wife or other children in the village teased him, he would always respond with his childish smile, making everyone happy.

In this way, as time went by, little Shi An grew up gradually. He began to learn to walk, talk, and even began to show interest in cultivation.

Look, whenever the children in the village practiced basic Kung Fu under the leadership of the clan leader, Shi An would always follow behind them and imitate their movements. Although he was clumsy, he was extremely serious.

When Shi Yunfeng noticed the change in little Shi An, he was secretly surprised. At the same time, he also understood why Lord Ji Ling asked Shi Village to adopt this child. There must be a deep meaning behind it.

So, after careful consideration, Shi Yunfeng decided to personally guide Shi An in his practice, hoping to unleash more potential in him.

One day, after the older children left, Shi Yunfeng called Shi An.

"Grandpa, what do you want to ask me?"

Shi An blinked his big, shiny black eyes and looked at Shi Yunfeng curiously, his little face full of questions.

Looking at Shi An's cute appearance, Shi Yunfeng smiled and squatted down, saying gently: "Little Shi An, Grandpa, the clan leader, sees that you seem to be very interested in cultivation. So, do you want to become stronger and protect yourself and our Shi Village?"

Hearing this, Shi An's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded vigorously: "I agree, Grandpa Clan Leader, I want to become very strong, so that I can help my father hunt and protect my mother and brother!"

"Okay, from now on, Grandpa the clan leader will teach you how to practice."

Seeing Shi An's serious answer, Shi Yunfeng's tone became a little serious. He looked into Shi An's eyes and said, "But cultivation is not an easy thing. It requires a lot of hardship. Can you do it?"

"I can do it, Grandpa Patriarch!"

In response to this, Shi An did not hesitate at all and nodded again, with unquestionable firmness in his childish voice.

Seeing Shi An nodding again and again, Shi Yunfeng didn't say anything more, but he secretly praised Shi An's tenacity and perseverance in his heart.

Then he slowly stood up, reached out and held Shi An's hand, and walked towards an open area in the village.
