In the siege battle that day, the Song army failed to capture Tengcheng in one go, but because it captured Teng Hu, the monarch of Teng, it was also a victory for the Song army.

However, the Mengshi clan was not happy, because their family, Sima Mengqing, was also seriously injured as a result.

"Family Sima ......"

"Uncle Meng Qing......"

"Mengqing ......"

In the shouts of the clansmen, Meng Qing was carried into the tent by Meng Hu and Meng Zhi together, and no one dared to touch the sharp sword on Meng Qing's chest.

"Meng Qing, I have sent someone to ask Master Wang's physician......"

Sitting in front of Meng Qing's straw shop, Meng Yu said with relief and relief.

Hearing this, a few bitter smiles appeared on Meng Zhi's face, because he knew very well that an injury like his could not be saved at all unless he was an immortal.

"I'm ...... this injury"

Meng Qing shook his head, and immediately took out the beast horn texture talisman from his arms, and said to Meng Hu: "Young Sect Master, I want to ask you to be a witness......

Meng Que certainly understood what it meant, and after sighing, nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Meng Qing turned his head to look at the people in the tent, and finally fixed his gaze on his younger brother Meng Zhi, and said in a deep voice: "Meng Zhi, you come forward. ”

Meng Zhi's eyes flashed with gloom, and he walked to the grass shop and knocked on one knee.

I saw Meng Qing glance at the people in the tent again, and said in a deep voice: "Meng Zhi, although he is my younger brother, he has been in battle for a long time, and his bravery is not inferior to mine. ”

The clansmen in the tent shook their heads.

Seeing this, Meng Qing then handed the talisman in his hand to Meng Zhi, and instructed in a deep voice: "Ah Zhi, after I die, you will be my Meng's family Sima, you are rash, you should be more stable in the future, assist the young sect master, and make my Meng's family prosperous." ”

"Do as my brother commands." Meng Zhi endured his grief and took the talisman with both hands.

On the side, the young sect master Meng Yu also said with a sad tone: "Meng Qing, don't worry, Meng Zhi will definitely be able to take on the position of the family Sima......

Meng Qing nodded, then glanced at the crowd in the tent again, and after exhaling slightly, asked, "My son Ah Hu, and Meng Bo's younger brother Meng Zhong, where are the two of them?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Meng Hu and Meng Zhong came out of the crowd, and the former endured his sadness and walked to the grass shop, calling in a trembling voice: "Daddy......"

During this period, Meng Zhong also called in a sad tone: "Uncle Meng Qing......"

Meng Qing nodded, but his eyes were the first to fall on Meng Zhong, who was beside Meng Hu, and seeing the latter's face full of sadness, he said with emotion: "Ah Zhong, your mother entrusted your brother to Uncle Wei, but Uncle failed to protect your brother...... Today, I finally have the opportunity to capture Teng Hu and get rid of the guilt in my heart for my uncle. After a pause, he said: "You don't need to be sad, for your uncle is not entirely for your brother, but also for the many clansmen killed by Teng Hu." ”

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Meng Zhi and asked, "Where is Teng Hu now?" ”

When Meng Zhi heard this, he immediately said: "He has been imprisoned by his clansmen, but he has been hit hard in the back of his head, and I am afraid that his time is running out." ”

"Hmm." Meng Qing nodded, and then said to Meng Zhong: "Ah Zhong, your brother and enemy, I will hand it over to you as an uncle." Go, kill Teng Hu and avenge your brother! ”

Looking at Meng Qing's sincere eyes, Meng Zhong was speechless with emotion, his eyes were red, and he nodded heavily.

Seeing Meng Zhong leave the tent, Meng Qing turned his gaze to Meng Hu at this time.

At this time, Meng Hu seemed to realize something, waved his hand and softly beckoned to the people: "Let's all go down first." ”

The clansmen left one after another, leaving the last time for the father and son.

The father and son looked at each other, and a little guilt flashed in Meng Qing's eyes.

As the Sima of the Mengshi clan, he thinks he is worthy of his clan, but he is only ashamed of his son, because many times he can't find time to accompany and teach his son.

It wasn't until this moment that he finally had time to be alone with his son.

"Ah Hu, come here."

Meng Qing beckoned, let Meng Hu come to his side, saw his eyes red, and said, "For my father...... You have also seen that your life will not be long, and in the future, I will ask you to take care of your mother...... I can't stand you mother and son. ”

As he spoke, his eyes reddened slightly.

Meng Hu held back his tears, but he shook his head, barely squeezed out a smile and said, "Dad, you are really brave today...... The child will tell his mother about your bravery and tell her that the father of the child is a man who stands tall in the sky......"

"Really?" Meng Qing asked in surprise.

Meng Hu nodded vigorously, gestured with both hands and said: "Dad, today, everyone has seen your brave posture, you are the pride of the child, in the future, the child will also be like your father to be a man who stands up to the sky......"

"Hahahaha......"

Meng Qing was relieved in his heart, laughed, and immediately, he looked at Meng Hu and said softly: "Ah Hu, let me hug you for my father......"

As if sensing something, Meng Hu held back tears and fell beside his father so that the latter could reach out and put his arms around him.

At this time, I listened to my father's intermittent advice: "You are more than brave, but you are not wise enough, you should ask Ah Zhong and Ah Sui for advice in this regard in the future......

"Yes......"

"Also, take care of your mother......"

"Yes......"

Gradually, the father's admonition became weaker and weaker, and eventually, it disappeared.

At this time, Meng Hu could no longer hold back the sadness in his heart, and lay on his father's chest and howled.

At the same time, Meng Zhong had already arrived at the place where Teng Hu was being held under the guidance of several clansmen.

It was a cage made of wood, and Teng Hu, the monarch of Teng Kingdom, was lying in the cage at this time, and when he heard the footsteps of someone approaching, he turned his head to look.

"You...... Are you the soldiers who have come to take me? ”

Seeing Meng Zhong, a fourteen-year-old boy, Teng Hu asked curiously.

Hearing this, Meng Zhong shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I am the one who came to take your life. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Teng Hu carefully, only to see that Teng Hu's face was pale and almost bloodless, thinking that it was also caused by excessive bleeding.

"Oh?"

A hint of surprise flashed on Teng Hu's face, and after touching the back of his head that had been bandaged simply, he smiled weakly: "The soldier who bandaged me once said that someone would come to take my life, I thought it was Dai Yan, the monarch of your Song Kingdom, but I didn't want to be a teenage doll......

After that, he looked Meng Zhong up and down a few times, and teased: "Does Jing Yu Lao'er allow you to kill me?" I thought he would use me to ask for merit from King Song...... Hmm, do you know who I'm talking about? ”

"Jun Sima Jingyi, I know." Meng Zhong said calmly, "That military master has acquiesced to me disposing of you...... Because Hui Ang is my brother-in-law. ”

"Hui'an?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Teng Hu's eyes, and he immediately looked at Meng Zhong and said lightly: "The important ministers around Song Wangyan, so it sees, it seems that you are not an ordinary person. ”

After that, he changed to a more comfortable position and lay down, and said casually: "Don't you do it yet?" ”

Meng Zhong looked at Teng Hu silently, and finally simply sat down in front of Teng Hu through the cage.

Seeing this, a trace of surprise flashed in Teng Hu's heart, and after looking Meng Zhong up and down a few times, he suddenly asked, "Do you have any relatives who died in my hands?" Or die at the hands of the soldiers of my Teng country. ”

"It was my own brother Meng Bo, who was killed by your own hands." Meng Zhong replied calmly: "It was two years ago, my brother served in the army and followed Wang Shi to attack Teng, at that time, my brother was only fifteen years old, and he was about to make a marriage, and the other party was a woman named "Yu" from the Hua clan, although I have not seen it, but it is said that it is a very gentle and beautiful woman......"

"Hua Yu?" Teng Hu muttered, nodded and said, "It sounds like it is indeed the name of a graceful and virtuous woman." ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Meng Zhong and asked curiously, "Why are you telling me this?" ”

"Don't you want to know what kind of people are dying at your hands?" Meng Zhong asked rhetorically.

"......" Teng Hu glanced at Meng Zhong deeply, then shook his head and said, "It's meaningless. …… For you, that's a good brother, but for me, it's an enemy who invades my country, and I don't feel the slightest guilt for killing him. To protect my people, I will kill all enemies who invade my country, even children of your age......"

"But you still failed." Meng Zhong said calmly.

Teng Hu's face froze when he heard this, he looked up at the sky that was about to darken, and muttered: "Yes, I failed......" After that, he turned his head to look at Meng Zhong, and Zhengse said: "But even so, I, Teng Guo, will still not give in." I also have two younger brothers, one is called Teng Qi and the other is Teng Hao, and I once told them that if I die in battle, they will be the monarchs of Teng, and I, Teng, will never give in to the king of Song......"

Speaking of this, he suddenly realized that it was only a teenager in front of him, so he shook his head self-deprecatingly: "Hey, what am I telling you to do here?" ”

At this moment, a cry rang out from the camp, and it was Menghu's voice.

Hearing this cry, Meng Zhong lowered his head gloomily.

Seeing this, Teng Hu asked curiously, "Is there another person you know who has died?" ”

"It's my Mengqing's family, Sima Mengqing, my clan uncle, and the person who captured you." Meng Zhong replied.

"It turned out to be him." Teng Hu was stunned when he heard this, and immediately praised: "That's really a warrior, a great guy!" ”

As he spoke, he changed to a more relaxed posture again, and immediately reminded Meng Zhongdao in an increasingly weak tone: "Don't you do it yet?" If you don't do it again, you're going to miss the opportunity to kill your brother and enemy......"

Meng Zhong looked at Teng Hu and slowly drew the sword at his waist, but in the end, he still put the drawn sword back.

Seeing this scene, Teng Hu's eyes showed a slight color.

"Stupid." He looked up at the night sky and muttered, "People like you should never have set foot in such an unrighteous war...... However, you and your brother are the only ones involved? …… This damn world! ”

Gradually, his eyes lost their life.

On the eighth day of September in the 32nd year of the Song Dynasty, Teng Hu, the monarch of Teng State, died in battle.

Sima Mengqing, a member of the Meng clan, died in battle.
