"What about the arrow?" Ma Chao asked Pound.

"Here, my subordinates carry it with me all the time!"

As he spoke, Pang De took out the poisoned arrow from his arms and handed it to Ma Chao, but the poisoned arrow had already been processed, so there was no need to worry about anything.

Ma Chao took the arrow and looked at it, his eyebrows raised, because there was a word engraved on the end of the arrow, a small "Yan" word, and he knew who this Yan was after a little thought.

"Hmph, this arrow is Yan Xing's!"

Ma Chao snorted coldly, although it seemed to ask Pound, but his tone was extremely certain.

Pang De was also a little surprised when he heard this, he didn't know why his lord even knew Yan Xing, but this was not something he should ask.

He nodded and said, "De Yi thinks that this poisonous arrow was shot by this person!" ”

In Beigong Boyu's army, except for Yan Xing, there is no one else surnamed Yan among the generals. It wouldn't be someone else borrowing his arrows and giving them to the horse, the odds were too small and too small to be impossible. Anyway, the arrow must be Yan Xing's, so he can't escape it anyway.

Pang De clenched his fists and said hatefully: "I think this person is right, I heard that he is the son-in-law of Han Sui Han Wenyue, and after Han Wenyue joined the traitor, he called him over from Yuzhong, and he is now under Han Wenyue's account!" I heard that this person is of bad character, but now that I look at it, the rumors are true! ”

Originally, releasing cold arrows would already make some people despised, but Yan Xing not only released cold arrows, but this cold arrow was also a poisonous arrow, so it can be said that this is even more despicable. If this kind of thing is usually encountered, Pound will just talk about it, but this time Ma Teng died of a poisoned arrow, which is no longer something that can be condemned with just words.

Ma Chao is not like Pound, he doesn't say much about it, more of it is in his heart, anyway, the hatred is deep in his heart, so he will report it when the time comes. Han Sui and Yan Xing, none of them can run. In Ma Chao's heart, it can be said that these two people have already been sentenced to death, if possible, even Beigong Boyu, Li Wenhou and Bian Zhang will have the same fate, of course, Han Sui and Yan Xing, the two sons-in-law, they are the protagonists, and Beigong Boyu They are just small supporting roles.

Ma Chao stood up and bowed deeply to Pang De, "The whole family of the super generation has thanked Lingming, without you, my father would not be able to settle down!" ”

"The lord, virtue, virtue is not good for protecting the old lord, and I am very ashamed in my heart!"

Pound was especially loyal to Maten because Maten was very kind to him. Otherwise, just because of Ma Teng's words, he would worship Ma Chao as the master, and this was not him alone, but with Ma Teng's private soldiers. He actually thought very simply, his lord is gone, so he should naturally follow the lord's will and continue to follow the lord's descendants, so it's right. And Ma Teng's death, he did have a lot of self-blame in his heart, if he was by the lord's side, maybe it wouldn't be like this.

"Ling Ming is not responsible for this matter, Ling Ming doesn't have to blame himself! Ma Yuangong, the ancestor of my Ma family, once said: 'Men should die in the border field, and bury their ears with horse leather shrouds'! Although his father is gone, he died on the battlefield. And for our Ma family, to be able to die on the battlefield, I have to say that this is a good home! ”

Ma Chao patted Pang De on the shoulder and said, regardless of Ma Teng's age, in the Ma family, the battlefield is the destination of the general. Even if it is a death in battle, it is a kind of glory for the general. And these are the things that have been passed down from Ma Yuanna, which can be regarded as a kind of spirit, the spirit of the Ma family. And the men of the Ma family should be like this, so that they are worthy of being the men of the Ma family.

From Ma Yuan's generation to the present, it can be said that the Ma family has gone through so many years of changes, some things are changing, but some have not changed. There are many branches, and the clansmen are scattered, but the inheritance spirit of the Ma family has not changed. In Ma Chao's view, a family is not the most important thing to make it glorious, but the most important thing is to let it continue and pass it on, only in this way can you have the opportunity to make it glorious. But to make the family glorious, talent is certainly one aspect, but the spirit of family inheritance is more important.

Let's just say that the Ma family, although it has been in decline for many years, every elder of the Ma family will say to the younger generation that they want to revitalize the family, and they will also say the words of Ma Yuan, which are all things that future generations must keep in mind. And Ma Chao feels that as long as these things are there, then sooner or later the Ma family will have a glorious day.

Pound nodded, as a military general, he was actually proud of being able to die on the battlefield. If you choose one after the most illness and death in battle, then you will not hesitate to choose the latter, this is the fate of the general.

Ma Chao could see that Pang De still had a knot in his father's heart, and it seemed that he could only let him kill Han Sui or Yan Xing with his own hands in the future, so that it would be good.

There was no way, Ma Chao could only say to him: "Ling Ming, the ancients, 'A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late', don't worry, he Han Wenyue and Yan Xing can't run, after all, they will be stabbed by us!" ”

"Lourdes thinks the same as the lord!"

Ma Chao nodded, hoping to kill the enemy as soon as possible, so that Pang De could untie the knot as soon as possible. The heart knot may be a little worse for ordinary people, but for military generals, the impact is greater. Because this thing not only affects your daily life, but also affects the progress of your martial arts. In the case of Pang De, Ma Chao feels that his martial arts can still improve, but now that he has a heart knot, it can be said that it is difficult for him to make any more progress without untying it, so it is not okay not to untie the heart knot.

After the wake ended, Ma Chao said goodbye to his mother Liu, and if he wanted to let Ma Teng enter the ground, he naturally couldn't be buried in Longxi, which was not his home. His hometown is in the Fufeng Maoling Tomb of Sili, and the ancestral tomb of Ma Teng's branch is there. The so-called "tree is a thousand feet high, and the leaves fall back to the roots", his father naturally has to be buried in the ancestral grave, and it is impossible for him to be buried elsewhere as a son.

Ma Chao's mother, Liu, cried in front of Ma Teng's coffin, this is the last glance, and then her son is about to take her husband away.

"Mother, son, let's go! Come, take your mother to rest! ”

"Chao'er, go yourself."

And Liu was helped into the house by Yahuan, and Ma Chao held the coffin and led everyone to Maoling. There are a lot of people who go to Maoling, except for Liu, everyone else is there. Ma Chao, Ma Xiu, Ma Tie and Ma Yunluo, these are Ma Teng's four children, and they must go. Then there are Chen Dao, Wu Anguo and Pang De, these are all Ma Chao's subordinates, and they have to follow. Then there are Ma Teng's private soldiers, who now belong to Ma Chao's private soldiers, and there are dozens of them, as well as the Ma family's subordinates, less than ten people, and everyone went to Maoling together.

After arriving at Maoling, Ma Chao first went to his grandmother's house and informed his grandmother Li of the news of his father's death. This matter can't be hidden, I didn't tell it before, it's because I have to return to Maoling later, so it's not a big deal a few days in the morning, and the elders can understand it. But if you keep hiding it, then it's not good. As for saying that you are afraid that your elders will be hit or something, Ma Chao has also thought about it, this is impossible at all.

After the death of his maternal grandfather, his maternal grandmother was not hit much, let alone just one of his sons-in-law. To say that Ma Chao still knows her grandmother better, her maternal grandfather is gone, she is naturally sad, but she can see it, and she will not say that she is dead or alive. said that it was to turn grief into strength, but in fact, it was almost the same, his grandfather was gone, and some of the affairs of the family were handled by his grandmother, who was definitely a strong woman.

When Ma Chao's grandmother's family learned about this, they were also embarrassed, Ma Teng died young, and it was impossible not to be sad as a relative. And as Liu's mother's family, her husband is now gone, and the family has to worry about Liu. Li also specially asked Ma Chao about some of his daughter's situation, Ma Chao didn't dare to tell the truth, so he could only perfunctory the past.

After that, Ma Chao visited Mr. Cui again, and Mr. Cui also felt a lot of emotion after learning the news that Ma Teng was gone. Although he and Ma Teng are not close friends, they also have some friendship, and Ma Teng is much younger than himself, but he didn't expect to go like this now.

At Mr. Cui's house, Ma Chao also met his uncle Ma Riyan. After learning the news of his father's death in Luoyang, Ma Chao and the four of them left in a hurry and forgot to tell Ma Riyan. After arriving in Longxi, he remembered that if he didn't tell his uncle about his father's absence, it would definitely not work. So when Ma Chao asked Cui An to go on errands, he specially instructed him to make sure to go to Luoyang and ask Ma Riyan to go to Maoling, because he was about to return to Maoling at that time. So let's see you at Maoling.

After Ma Riyan saw the coffin of his brother, he couldn't help crying. Last year, they were still drinking and chatting together, but today they are forever separated.

"Meng Qi, Shoucheng is worthy of being the man of my Ma family! Shoucheng is gone, and the Ma family will depend on you in the future! ”

Ma Chao nodded, his father was the patriarch of this branch of the Ma family, although he hadn't had time to finish his words before he died, but the position of the patriarch was obviously going to fall on the head of the eldest son of his family. Ma Chao naturally doesn't have any thoughts about the patriarch, let alone a patriarch who is in the middle of the family, even if it is a big family, Ma Chao has no ideas. It's just that I know about my family's affairs, and the moment my father is not there, it means that the responsibility on my shoulders is even greater.

Originally, Ma Teng also had a big brother, that is, Ma Chao's uncle, but this uncle was the only one who knew where Ma Teng was, and no one else knew about it, so Ma Teng couldn't inform him about it.

On the day of the funeral, many villagers came to help this and that, and they were busy for a long time. Ma Chao really didn't know much about the funeral of the ancients, so he was helped by others, and he did what he asked him to do when he was needed. The ancients were not like modern people, and the neighbors who lived opposite the door did not necessarily know whether they were men or women. The ancients walked a lot between neighbors, which is also Ma Chao's favorite place. Although Ma Teng has lived in Maoling for a few years, his reputation among the neighbors is very good, and they all know that Ma Teng Ma Shoucheng, the son-in-law of the old Liu family, is a particularly warm-hearted person, and he usually helps everyone a lot. But I didn't expect that he had only been gone for more than ten years, and this was no longer there.

In the end, he finally put his father Ma into the ground, and after everything was over, Ma Chao invited everyone, which was also a process. Ma Chao dared to say that in his two lives combined, he had never seen so many people at funerals, which shows how Ma Teng's reputation is here. To be honest, Ma Chao didn't bring much money, because he didn't expect so many people to come, and it was naturally not enough to set up a banquet. But he didn't, but it doesn't mean that others don't either, his grandmother's family is a local big landowner, and Mr. Cui's family has been in business for generations, so naturally it is not bad for money, so Ma Chao naturally didn't have to worry about setting up a banquet to invite everyone, and he did it all.

Of course, as the eldest son in the family, Ma Chao naturally as a representative, wants to say some words of thanks to everyone before the banquet, anyway, it is to thank the villagers and neighbors, this is difficult for Ma Chao, and then everyone began to use the banquet.

During the banquet, Liu Hong sent someone to deliver the message. This is an edict commending Ma Teng, saying that Ma Teng sacrificed his life for the country, and then he was rewarded with a lot of property, which can be regarded as Ma Chao's heart, Ma Chao is satisfied with this. Liu Hong gives himself face, and he will naturally give him face.

Sending away the angel who delivered the decree, Ma Chao looked at everyone and couldn't help but sigh, although his father was not famous in the world in this life, and he died young. But in this place of Maoling, I didn't expect his reputation to be so good, Ma Chao really hadn't paid attention to these before. And now that he is clear, he has to say that to be a man is to be a good person, and he must not be the kind that thousands of people scold and hate.
