Wu Meng was a man of Puyang in the period of the Jin Dynasty. He knew how to show filial respect to his parents when he was just 8 years old. His family was poor and had no mosquito tent. His father could not sleep for mosquito biting. Every summer, Wu Meng sat with a bare body before his father's bed and didn’t drive away mosquitoes however they bit him because he was afraid mosquitoes would leave him to bite his father instead.
