System: The Path of a Mortal Being Stronger Through Being a Mother

As night fell, people who had been searching for food outside began to return.

Some are happy and some are sad.

In a small tent, the thin woman looked at the man who had returned, her face full of surprise: "Husband, you're back."

She hurried forward and checked the man up and down for any injuries.

The tall and strong man grinned: "Don't worry, Xiaofang, I'm fine. If I were injured, the base wouldn't let me in."

Xiaofang gave him a scolding look: "I am worried about you."

The man's face was full of warmth. He took out today's harvest from his arms and called his son: "Son, this is for you. Dad got a sausage today. Come and eat it."

The little boy, about five or six years old, happily took it and sniffed it without opening it. Then he said sensibly, "Mom, this is for you. I'll cook it in the porridge and we'll eat it together. Dad, mom and I found some dried vegetables nearby today. We can have some vegetable porridge."

Xiaofang and the man looked at their sensible son and felt very jealous: their son used to be the pickiest eater, but now he feels satisfied with just some dried vegetable porridge.

No matter what, as long as the family can be together, it is happiness.

The situation at a house not far away was quite different.

The man of the family didn't come back.

The man's wife and daughter looked at the men who had gone out with the same team and the little food they brought, and they felt sad.

They have no time to grieve for their lost loved ones.

What they need to think about is: How will a woman live with a little girl in the future?

...

Lin Miao took the two with her everywhere.

Xiaotian looked at the various joys and sorrows in the world, deep in thought.

Although Zhang Yinzi had killed several people in his previous life, it was because of a grudge.

What he saw along the way, and looking at those people who had lost their loved ones, the old ghost also felt sad.

What kind of world is this?

Order is collapsing and people live in such a humble way!

Lin Miao held Xiaotian's hand and blended into the crowd in order to let him feel more of the sufferings of the world, which would also help him control his bloodthirsty desires.

Lin Miao thought: If the apocalypse doesn’t end soon, cannibalism will start to occur. Maybe, it has already occurred in some places.

When life cannot be guaranteed, people's bottom line will be lowered again and again.

The three of them quickly returned to the rented yard.

Xiaotian and Zhang Yinzi looked at Lin Miao eagerly.

What should Lin Miaoneng do?

She first grilled some meat for Xiaotian, and then gave him two spiritual fruits.

She and Zhang Yinzi just had a simple meal and one dish.

Although it is the end of the world, children are still children. There are a few children who live nearby running around and playing outside.

Xiaotian watched eagerly, although he was not like ordinary children, his childish nature was still there.

Lin Miao nodded: "Go ahead."

Xiaotian happily ran off to play with those kids.

He has no problem expressing himself now.

Lin Miao was practicing in the house and asked Zhang Yinzi to keep an eye on Xiaotian and make sure he didn't hurt anyone.

She had just gotten into the mood when she heard a noise outside.

When Lin Miao heard Zhang Yinzi's call, she rushed over.

Zhang Yinzi pulled Xiaotian, but the little guy was still struggling to get out, kicking his calves at several adults.

An old lady cursed loudly: "Where did you come from, you little bastard? Look at how you hit my grandson. His legs are all bruised. You must pay me with food."

Another young woman echoed, "That's right, this kid is really bad. Don't bully others by relying on your family's wealth. You scared my son, and your family will have to pay for the food."

The parents of several other children, both boys and girls, did not say anything or express their opinions.

Lin Miao looked at Xiaotian. The little guy's eyes were filled with anger and he was about to transform.

Lin Miao patted him on the vest.

Xiaotian suppressed his anger and said loudly, "We were running a race, and I always came first, but they just couldn't accept it. He fell down by himself, it had nothing to do with me."

Lin Miao looked at the adults and said, "Why, the kids are playing together and there's no big conflict. What do you want to do?"

As long as Xiaotian doesn’t do anything.

It seems that he is indeed not suitable to play with children and he was careless.

The old lady said arrogantly, "No, you have to pay us with food. Your family had such a good meal at night, what's wrong with giving us some?"

The two men next to him looked at Lin Miao with ambiguous eyes and took a step forward.

Lin Miao asked Xiao Tian: "Do you want to play with them in the future?"

Xiaotian snorted coldly: "I don't want to play anymore, you are so weak, you are all slugs."

Several children glared at him in dissatisfaction.

Lin Miao looked at the children, who were about the same age as Xiaotian, and two of them indeed had snotty noses.

The weather is abnormal now, and children often catch colds. There may not be medicine, so they can only bear it.

She originally wanted to give them two pills, but seeing how these adults looked, she gave up.

She ignored these people and walked into the yard with Xiaotian.

Several adults came forward to stop her, but Zhang Yinzi blocked them.

Lin Miao no longer cared about it. It was just a matter between children and there was no fight. These people just wanted to extort some benefits, which could not be given.

Zhang Yinzi came back after a while. He said triumphantly: "Hey, these weaklings all fell down in a few moves..."

Lin Miao glanced at him and said, "Practice."

You are a cultivator, and you defeated a few ordinary people. What is there to be proud of?

However, these people will not cause trouble for no reason in the future.

It seems that we need to change our approach.

...

After wandering around the base for a few more days, Xiaotian had adapted to living among the crowd and no longer drooled so often.

On this day, as the sky was about to brighten, Lin Miao brought Xiaotian and Zhang Yinzi to the mission hall of the base.

There is a large screen in the middle of the hall, with various tasks scrolling on it.

Some people have fixed teams to complete tasks, while others form temporary teams.

Lin Miao looked at the three of them and it seemed that no one was willing to accept them.

Those who go out on missions are basically all men, and there are very few women.

The few women who came occasionally all looked like martial artists.

The original owner had a slender figure and didn't look like someone who could fight.

That Zhang Yinzi also looked a bit like an immortal, although he didn't look that good.

Add to that a little brat, and every team that's recruiting will look down on them.

Lin Miao looked at the top task: go to the A City Arsenal 100 kilometers away and bring back important drawings and weapons.

This task is pending, but no one takes it.

Lin Miao stopped a staff member and asked, "Excuse me, can I take this task?"

The staff member was a girl in her twenties. She looked around and whispered, "Come with me."

Lin Miao thought he needed to go through some formalities, so she followed him.

Xiaotian held her clothes and looked around curiously.

The girl took Lin Miao to a deserted place and asked, "You just entered the base, right?"

Lin Miao nodded: "Yes."

The girl said, "No wonder you dared to take that mission. Have you ever thought about why no one would take it, with such a high reward? There are a lot of zombies in that place, and some of them are particularly powerful zombies with superpowers. Several teams have been wiped out there. The base organized a large number of experts to go there a few days ago, and they all..."
