Phoenix Destroyer
119. Life History

The expedition trip this time ended faster than originally thought. Everyone is happy, but they are worried too. Worry if those tier 7 spiritual zombies return for revenge.

But fortunately until they returned to the Capital Base, nothing happened halfway through.

Once he arrived at the Capital Base, Xuan Ming and a few people left to report on the trip. While the others returned to their residences.

Everyone back to their rooms. Shower and then sleep.

It was the next day when Feng Mo knew that their residence had been visited by two groups of people as long as they were away from the guards.

"An old man hid in a street corner and kept looking towards this house for a few days. As long as we catch him, the old man will run away. One time we caught him and questioned him, he insisted that he only wanted to see his relatives coming from outside. There have been a lot of outsiders lately so we don't know if what he's saying is true or not. But the old man was not seen again these two days.

The other group consisted of a married couple who claimed to be the biological parents of Tang Mo's siblings. We didn't know the situation and there wasn't anyone in the house at the time so we didn't dare to admit and didn't let them into the house."

Feng Mo nearly choked on his drinking water when he heard the guard's last sentence. "Have you talked about this to Tang Mo?"

"Not yet."

"Okay, hard work. If they come again, let them. I want to see, this divorced couple who still have the face to show themselves in front of Tang Mo."

The guard was a little confused by Feng Mo's sudden scorn, but he did not ask and just carried out the task.

"Yes." Yeah."

After the guard left, Feng Mo only shook his head. It was unexpected that those two irresponsible parents were still alive and in the Capital. Feng Mo did not even think that the two were lying to recognize the relatives of others. He guessed maybe the two or one of the two had met Tang Mo somewhere before and saw his good life and wanted to follow.

Don't look at Tang Mo who was still quiet and talkative, but ever since he followed their group, Tang Mo had never again treated himself badly. Her clothes were always clean and she had eaten quite a lot all this time. From a skinny young man to a 28-year-old adult man, Tang Mo had attracted many girls at the base to like him.

When Feng Mo was pondering, the person he was thinking of descended from the second floor.

"Sister Feng, have you had breakfast?"

"It has. Come here for a minute."

Tang Mo approached and sat down in front of Feng Mo. There was no one else in the living room other than the two of them.

"Sister Feng, what's wrong?"

"Some people came looking for you before. Have you met your parents before?" Feng Mo asked as he poured some tea for himself.

Tang Mo was stunned for a moment before understanding what Feng Mo was talking about. "Yes." Yeah." He did not want to hide it at all from everyone, it was only a matter of time before the two people appeared in front of everyone.

Feng Mo did not ask much. "What do you think?" Do you want to let them? Or will you take care of them? Feng Mo didn't intend to intervene, but either way he didn't want anyone to drag Tang Mo down.

"I don't want them."

Tang Mo's resolute answer surprised Feng Mo a little.

Perhaps also realizing what he had just said was too stern, Tang Mo hurriedly explained. "I just don't understand them."

Feng Mo's expression eased. "What's up?"

"Since I can remember, they've always fought even for trivial matters. It happened for years before they decided to divorce. After the divorce, they were still fighting because they didn't want me to be their bottle of oil. If it wasn't for the grandparents who ended up taking me away, they might have left me alone in the rental house."

Tang Mo took a deep breath before continuing. "Not long after the grandparents died one after another and I had no permanent residence, I was underage and in need of education, so the teachers called their homes and asked for an opinion. If the teacher doesn't call, they may have forgotten that they still have another boy after building the household again. They hate me for asking them for money.

After that they scold each other, and say bad things to each other. They also used me as their trash can. And once I reached legal age, they no longer held back and immediately refused to give me any food. I wasn't angry that they refused to give me money, but after years of neglect, my feelings for them didn't even leave a single shred of place.

I met them at the people's market, I don't know how they got to the Capital. I quietly followed them, seeing that each of their families were still intact, I felt relieved. I didn't care anymore until I heard other people gossiping about them. It turned out that the two people after the divorce, they still met each other just to fight and blame their own misfortunes on the other party. Even dragging their families to make bigger fights.

Didn't they love each other before? Why did they become like this? Then after divorce, wouldn't it be better to stay away from each other and never meet? What's with this eternal enmity?" Tang Mo was speechless. He really did not understand why the two people did not just cut off the relationship. Isn't it nice to live in peace?

Feng Mo muttered inwardly. Maybe that's called love and hate. They still love each other but also hate each other. They didn't want the other party to live better than himself even after the divorce, so the hostility continued until they built the household again. This hatred is indeed difficult to assuage unless one of the parties is willing to budge.

"You can do it yourself. Better tell them before we leave the Capital." Since their expedition ended early, there was no longer any reason to stay.

Tang Mo nodded in understanding. Also he could guess why the two men had come looking for him. The pair of ex-wives were just ordinary people at the base. Seeing that he was living so well, wasn't that the rhythm to make him support both of their families?

Tang Mo did not want to overestimate himself. The reason why he lived well was because Feng Mo taught him martial arts skills, then the people around him took care of him because he was young. Even if he dared to go out of the base to kill zombies and mutant animals, all the credit points he used to practice. Tang Mo did not have the extra time and effort to take care of the two families, nor did his main reason be that he did not want to listen to their eternal feud.

Also although Guardian Base did not discriminate against ordinary humans, the base would not treat them specifically just because they were his biological parents. So from the start, Tang Mo's heart refused to take them away to Guardian Base.

They had been living well in the Capital Base, so why bother to move?

The two of them did not talk about this anymore and soon forgot about it. Feng Mo didn't know how Tang Mo was tidying up his parents, he only knew that Tang Mo was back in a very relieved mood.

Feng Mo felt that there was nothing more to do in the Capital and prepared to pack up. But he was happy too soon.

Sitting in front of him right now was a married couple claiming to be Shi Jiyi's close relatives. It reminded her that there were actually two waves of people searching for their group. But isn't the other one an old man? Where did this uncle and aunt come from.

"We are really Xiaoshi's uncle and aunt. We've been losing it since the baby. Everyone was so worried about her, to the point that no one had lived well all this time. Now that we find him, we hope to recognize him." The woman who claimed to be Aunt Shi Jiyi looked very sad. His eyes were red with distress.

Feng Mo was deeply moved, if not for the ray of greed that flashed from the woman's eyes, he would truly believe the other party's rhetoric. This acting, he was afraid that the other party would soon win the best acting award around the world.

He was just sorry that everyone in this room was nothing stupid, which would echo the other party's voice.

Feng Mo sighed regretfully.

"However, this Madam, do you bring any evidence that Xiaoshi is your nephew who is involved with blood? You know, lately there's been a lot of people claiming to be relatives of our members. If you don't bring concrete evidence, we could have reported you for fraud."

"of course! Sure thing!"

The woman took out a worn photo from her clothing pocket.

Feng Mo looked at the family photos of the three people who looked happy with the baby in their hands. The man had the same seven-eight-point face as Shi Jiyi.

"That's a picture of my brother-in-law and his wife. When they lost Xiaoshi, they were very angry and sad. They had been looking for Xiaoshi everywhere. Unfortunately they were involved in a car accident in the third year Xiaoshi went missing. After that we continued their search, unfortunately we were also unable to find Xiaoshi until now." The woman shed tears in frustration.

Feng Mo did not interrupt his words and let them continue to act. Even Lin Su who was sitting next to him had started to yawn.

"Okay, I understand how you are. But the photos alone do not prove everything. There are many people in this world who look the same even though they are not blood related. To be more precise, why don't we do a DNA test at the base hospital?"

The woman nodded in agreement quickly, even elbowing her husband who was clearly Xiaoshi's uncle.

"Then it's sorted out. You can register it first and pay the hospital fee. We just got back from the expedition and lost a lot of money, you came at the right time."

The woman's face immediately changed.

"I heard that Xiaoshi is Mr Meng's younger brother, how about just counting it? Wouldn't it be more accurate?"

"Hey, the Madam has even heard this news."

The woman smiled stiffly.

Feng Mo smiled that did not reach his eyes. "But you know? The fortune tellers can't count themselves."

The atmosphere suddenly froze.

"So do you still want to go to the hospital?" Qi Yuzhi who was sitting beside Feng Mo broke the deadlock.

"Yes! Yep! Sure thing!" The woman replied hastily, she was already frightened by the pressure being released by Feng Mo.

"Let's go to the hospital tomorrow. We will leave the Capital Base soon, sooner identify better."

The woman's face was distorted, but she did not dare to show it to everyone. "Yes." Yeah."

The woman did not dare to stay too long in this place anymore, so she immediately pulled her husband to leave. But before he actually left the door, Feng Mo still left behind his heart-rending words.

"Bring the old man with you tomorrow."

After leaving the community, the woman could not help her expression anymore, her face distorted in annoyance. He's bluffing his teeth. "What's wrong with those people? Is it not enough to recognize relatives? What happened to the DNA test? Who will give me the money? The money! Lao Du say something!"

Mr. Du also grumbled. "No fool after doomsday, who else would want to take the extra money for us?"

"That's all one of your cheap nieces! Why doesn't he come out to recognize us, it's better than a DNA test!"

"That's the seed of the man, you know for yourself how my older brother is."

"Hum, when we recognize him later, see what I have to do with him, let him support our whole family. See if he still dares to refuse to give me food!"

"Wait until we raise money for a DNA test."

"Where do we get the money?!"

"It looks like the old man is still saving a lot of money, let's just search his body."

Returning to the living room, the three men did not move in the slightest to deliver guests. As soon as the two people left, Qi Yuzhi turned his head towards Feng Mo. "Do you believe that?"

"Yes, no."

Lin Su leaned back. "The woman's initial remark should have been true, that Shi Jiyi's parents had been looking for her for three years. But his next words are not the same as the facts."

Feng Mo agreed. "The photo has worn out on both sides of the bottom. It is seen that the owner attaches great importance to the photo even holding it repeatedly. But from the careless way the woman took out the photo, I knew this photo wasn't originally hers. Also isn't the person who came to us an old man? Despite knowing that Shi Jiyi might be his granddaughter, but when the guards questioned him, he did not say who it was. It seems that he was quite careful."

"By the way, that woman doesn't seem to know her nephew's name. He just followed us calling him Xiaoshi." Perhaps the woman did not bother to ask the news in detail, her eyes were already filled with images of an established life. That greed... Lin Su who had seen many people after the end of the world could only shake his head.

"Send someone to follow them to their residence, I wonder what happened to the old man."

"I'll go alone."

Feng Mo did not refuse. "If something happens, the top priority is the old man."

"okay."

After Lin Su left, Xuan Ming immediately replaced his seat.

"By the way, are they really Xiaoshi's close relatives?"

Feng Mo nodded.

"Then why don't you let Xiaoshi see a little of their faces?"

"Do you? Other than the bloodline I saw, I saw another line connecting the two."

"What?" Xuan Ming and Qi Yuzhi asked simultaneously.

"That's the line of cause and effect. I'm worried that the loss of baby Xiaoshi has something to do with them." That was why she did not let Shi Jiyi see them even the slightest bit, and let Tang Mo take her away.

Xuan Ming was shocked. "Then did Xiaoshi's parents crash?"

"Unfortunately, they were really just an accident." However, there will be karma that ensnare the two husbands. Because Shi Jiyi's parents had an accident to search for Shi Jiyi, while Shi Jiyi's disappearance was their deed. This karma will always haunt them to death.

"Let's pack up tonight, we'll leave the Capital Base tomorrow."

"okay."

Lin Su brought someone to follow the two people to their residence. After asking a few things to the neighbors left and right, Lin Su had a few points in his heart. So he immediately came back and reported it to Feng Mo.

It just so happened that Shi Jiyi was there.

"Do you want to see your real grandfather?"

The new Shi Jiyi knew that she still had close relatives a little confused. In his life, other than Master taking care of him, he did not have any impression of the old man. Although he was sometimes envious of the Lin family of three, he was only slightly envious. There was not the slightest thought of figuring out if he still had parents.

Now that Feng Mo had told him that the old man they had met in the market earlier was probably his grandfather, Shi Jiyi had a feeling of enlightenment. That was why he kept feeling that there was something important in the old man's stall. Not the merchandise, but the old man himself.

Shi Jiyi had never attributed those feelings to the blood relationship between the two.

"Can I go?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"I'm gonna take him back to base?"

"That's your choice."

"Pulse. Thank you, Brother Feng." A smile appeared on her small face.

"What to thank." Feng Mo ruffled Shi Jiyi's hair furiously. He would not prevent Shi Jiyi from bringing the old man along. Despite having lived with them and knowing many things, Shi Jiyi was after all only a ten-year-old child. He still needed the care of an elder in the family.

So the next day, when someone else was just out for breakfast or shopping, there was a commotion on the floor in the family apartment.

Lin Su brought a few people to knock on Du's couple's door and broke into where Du's old man was locked.

Mr. Du who had been locked down for over two days was a little surprised. But as soon as he saw a child following behind Lin Su, his eyes immediately turned red.

"Xiaoy?"

The Du couple was in a panic when Lin Su broke down the door where Mr. Du was locked.

"What are you doing?! Didn't we have agreed beforehand to meet, why did you break through our house?!" That Madam Du was screaming in panic.

Lin Su looked at the couple coldly. "Didn't you have a point in your heart? Let's go."

Madam Du has a bad feeling.

"Wait on! Where are you going to take the old man?!"

The other person did not say anything, only pushing Madam Du who was blocking the way.

"No!" Madam Du immediately turned her attention to Shi Jiyi who had come with them. "Xiaoshi! Ziaoshi! Are you going to take the old man away alone? You should take us too! We are your uncles and aunts!"

Lin Su did not let Madame Du approach Shi Jiyi.

"Your parents can't leave us! Du Er is your son! Will you leave us alone?!"

Master Du lowered his head, making no sound.

Madam Du was bluffing her teeth and pinching her husband's waist.

"Dad, you have to take us! I don't want to leave you alone, who will take care of you later?"

Lin Su did not want to listen to their voices anymore and ordered others to leave quickly.

"Dad! Daddy's! Take us!"

"Old man, you can't leave us cruelly!"

The couple followed Lin Su's group all the way down.

Lin Su closed the car door loudly and left exhaust fumes for the two.

"Old man!"

The commotion gathered everyone to gossip.

"What happened to old man Du? Where are they going?"

"Who knows. But did you see that little child that Madame Du called earlier?"

Some people soon have bright eyes.

"Hey, old man Du is also a poor person. He had become a white-haired person who sent out a black-haired person. His eldest son died before he found his grandson."

"Also Du Er's daughter-in-law is not a fuel-efficient lamp! After his brother-in-law died, he wanted to let Du Er immediately inherit Du's parent company. Don't you know what kind of virtue Du Er is?"

"If it wasn't for old man Du caring and having to stand up again to shore up the company's employees, the company might have been destroyed in the hands of the two couples."

"Even after the end of the world, even though their company is gone, old man Du can still support himself. But these two couples still continued to drag the old man down!"

Someone clucked. "What is Du Er thinking? His wife is more important than his father?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"See now! The old man's grandson finally found him! Looking at his body, it seemed like he was living well on this doomsday, no wonder the couple was panicking."

"Yes, he must have a good life."

"Anyone wants an aunt's uncle like that anyway?"

"Yes! Anyone who wants a relative like this, I might be unlucky for seven descendants!"

The car drove straight to the main gate and joined the convoy that had been waiting. Finally with one additional person, the convoy traveled back to their home, Guardian Base.

Four years later.

Feng Mo stared at the gray sea in front of the base wall.

"This will be our last battle."
