Chapter 7 National Martial Arts: Baji!

Chapter 7 National Martial Arts: Baji!

Jiang You was resting, drinking water to regain his strength. When he heard Luo Ping's words, he asked: "Guojutsu? Aren't those just fancy? What I want is actual combat ability!"

Luo Ping said with a smile: "The routine performances of Chinese martial arts are indeed just a show, but in addition to the routines, there are also training and fighting methods. Speaking of practicality, in fact, Chinese martial arts is the most practical. When fighting against people, you usually only need one or two moves, which completely suits your needs. need."

"Oh? You can?"

"Hey, I have practiced, but I am not here to teach you. I can contact my master. He has been practicing Bajiquan all his life and is famous throughout the province. If you are interested, I can introduce you to one or two. .”

Only then did Jiang You come to his senses, "It turns out that he was selling the course to himself privately."

"If you do this, the store won't care?"

"Mr. Jiang, you misunderstood. My master also teaches swordsmanship classes in the store."

"Oh, it's him!"

Jiang You raised his eyebrows, and the old man in the swordsmanship class came to mind. He had white beard and hair, and a simple face. He was serious in speech and almost no nonsense when teaching. Unexpectedly, he could also learn Baji Quan? That's right, swordsmanship is also one of the national arts, so it's not surprising.

"Isn't the weapon in Bajiquan a Liuhe gun? Why does it still have sword skills?"

Jiang You also has a certain understanding of Bajiquan. It is an external style of boxing. It is famous for its fierce and domineering fighting style. It is hard to fight hard. People often say that Tai Chi can calm the world in literature, and Baji can determine the world in martial arts. Even more Some people praise Bajiquan, swinging its arms and hitting the sky and knocking it down, and stomping its feet to shake the nine states. This shows that this boxing method is domineering, and the matching weapon is a big gun.

"Marksmanship and swordsmanship have the same principles. Although Bajiquan is the most famous for its marksmanship, swordsmanship should not be underestimated. There are three sets of swordsmanship: Yuexia Sword, Qingping Sword, and Soul-Wandering Dragon Sword. My master practices the Soul-Wandering Dragon Sword. .”

"You have to pay extra."

Luo Ping smiled brightly, "Of course ordinary basic swordsmanship is free. If you want to learn Bajiquan and Soul-changing Dragon Sword, the tuition is 30,000 yuan a month."

"Huo! It's twice as many as those in the gym!"

"Mr. Jiang, since ancient times, it has been difficult to find authentic transmissions. The original master only passed on the authentic transmissions to two or three people in his life. My master also lamented the decline of Chinese martial arts nowadays. He abandoned his scholastic views and showed his true skills. He will never add falsehoods. The price is definitely not worth it. of."

Under Luo Ping's hard work, Jiang You's heart moved. His magical powers could deal with strange things, martial arts could deal with humans, and he could walk on two legs, which was more stable.

But my savings are not enough at all. I am really poor in culture and rich in martial arts. I have only practiced martial arts for two days and I have spent most of the savings from my previous job. It looks like I will have more expenses in the future. Otherwise, I should accept Li Fangya's advice. invite? After all, the treatment is indeed very good, and if I sell the gold from the gray world in the future, it will be more convenient to have a public identity.

"Mr. Jiang, what are your thoughts?"

Jiang You immediately gritted his teeth and agreed. He took out his credit card and used it as an overdraft of 30,000 yuan. Hey, before he saw the shadow of gold, he was already in debt.

After paying the fee, Luo Ping took Jiang You to a lounge on the top floor of the gym.

Knock at the door.

"Master, there is a client who wants to learn Bajiquan, and I brought him here."

"Enter!"

Push the door and go in. The lounge is covered with tatami mats. In the middle, a little old man in a gray robe is sitting cross-legged on a futon with his back to the door. There is a wooden table in front of him, with an incense burner on it, and a stick of incense is burning slowly. The wall behind There is a picture hanging on it, with dragons and phoenixes flying and phoenixes writing a big word "quiet".

The two took off their shoes and stepped forward. After Luo Ping explained the situation to the old man, he turned around.

Although the old man had a long body, his eyes were extremely bright. He stared into Jiang You's eyes. Jiang You instantly felt a sense of oppression coming over him. However, Jiang You was a character who had wandered around the gates of hell several times and had killed all the monsters. The two of them, this little pressure was nothing, so they looked back directly.

The two were in a stalemate for some time.

"He has good courage and is a talented martial artist! I agree to your request."

Well, there is also an introductory test, and I paid all my own money. Is it possible that if I can’t pass the test, I won’t teach?

Jiang You looked at Luo Ping displeased, and Luo Ping smiled apologetically and said, "It's the rules of the older generation. I know this is a no-brainer for you, so I didn't mention it."

In the two days of battle, although Luo Ping's skills were higher than Jiang You's, it did not mean that he could deal with it easily, especially when he forced Jiang You into a corner several times and Jiang You fought back, there was a look in his eyes. The cruelty made him tremble with fear. If it was a life and death fight, he felt that the one who survived must be Jiang You! As an urbanite, I have very little blood on my hands, and I have never killed anyone. Fighting requires courage, strength and skill.

I have lost in terms of courage, no matter how high my martial arts skills are, it will be useless.

He also wondered where the murderous intention in Jiang You came from, and even suspected that Jiang You had killed someone. But when he thought about it, in this era, murderers dare not show their faces openly. It was also attributed to Jiang You's talent. Geniuses are always good. It's unreasonable, isn't it?

The old man spoke up at this time, "I, Ji Sheng, have been practicing Bajiquan all his life and have achieved some success. How old are you now? Have you ever learned boxing before?"

"At the age of 25, I learned fighting from Luo Ping for two days!"

"That means you have no foundation. At your age, it's a bit late to learn boxing. I'll feel the bones first!"

After Ji Sheng said this, he stood up and touched the bones on Jiang You's body. Despite the old man's age, the strength of his hands was quite strong. Jiang You's whole body ached from the pinch.

Ji Sheng touched the bone and his eyes lit up, "Huh? Weird!"

Ji Sheng found that although Jiang You was thin, his muscles were extremely strong, far exceeding that of ordinary people. He couldn't help but think highly of Jiang You, but he didn't say it explicitly. He just said that it was okay, because he was not a traditional disciple, nor was he a disciple. After adjourning the ceremony, he immediately started teaching Jiang You the boxing technique.

"Bajiquan emphasizes being fierce and explosive, cold, crisp, quick and ruthless. It trains on the explosive power of the body. Those who can win with one move will not use a second move. It emphasizes the eight thoughts in the mind, the eight shapes on the outside, and the powerful force in all directions. .

Only by memorizing the eight meanings can you win the battle in advance. The eight meanings are panic, panic, ruthlessness, poison, fierceness, fierceness, spirit, and urgency.

It has eight external shapes, namely dragon, tiger, bear, monkey, swallow, dog, eagle, and quail, and its energy is emitted from eight directions, that is, in all directions.

When practicing Bajiquan, the strength must be reached to the limit. The force originates from the feet, dominates the waist, passes through the shoulders, elbows, and hands, and is distributed all around. It is necessary to exert a whole force, and the whole force is explosive power. You enter me. Also advance, if you retreat I will advance, that is, if you hit me, I will not hide, I will advance, if you go, I will follow up. "

While Ji Sheng was explaining, he was practicing to Jiang You. During this period, he moved slowly, just like an ordinary old man doing Tai Chi in the square, demonstrating the basic movements one by one: pushing, hugging, wrapping, holding, filing, picking, splitting, and smashing.

The movement was simple and unpretentious, and Jiang You thought it was just like that. Ji Sheng seemed to have guessed Jiang You's thoughts. When he hit the last blow, a loud roar suddenly exploded in his chest. His originally slow fist quickly exerted force, from top to bottom. Down, hit hard, and stamped his feet at the same time. For a moment, the crisp sound of clothes, the roar of fists piercing the air, and the muffled sound of stamping on the ground were all combined into one, "Bang!" There was a loud noise!

The floor seemed to be shaking from the old man's shock. Jiang You was overjoyed. This is the boxing technique I was looking for. He had no other thoughts and just followed the old man to learn from him.

Luo Ping took his leave when he was practicing boxing, and Jiang You and Ji Sheng stayed until the afternoon sword practice time.

Let’s go downstairs to the classroom together. The Soul Transferring Dragon Sword is also composed of basic sword techniques. The old man asked Jiang You to also practice the basic sword techniques well. The specific sword moves will be taught later!

After class, after the other students had left, Ji Sheng continued to teach Bajiquan, "Boxing is the foundation. Practice your boxing first, and then you will naturally master the swordsmanship!"

At eight o'clock in the evening, "That's it for today. Nothing can be done too much. Kung fu requires not only practice, but also cultivation. Otherwise, your essence and blood will dry up after two days of practice. I will give you a pile of tricks. You stand first when you go back." Stay!"

When Jiang You returned home, it was already around ten o'clock, and then he remembered to call Li Fangya.
