Chapter 1960 The Little Monk Practicing Martial Arts

Mai Xiaomiao was left behind to burn incense and worship Buddha under the guidance of the old monk. Zhou Zhi took a broom and walked around the Wei Tuo statue to the courtyard, and found that the main hall here was still interesting. Because of the mountain topography, the Main Hall was built on a red wall, a bit like Tiananmen, but there is no doorway below and there are stone ladders on both sides to go up.

The friends are wandering around above, several of them believe in Buddhism, including party member Wu Renzhong, carrying long and short piles of red and green incense in their hands.

Most of the pilgrims were leaving. They had to walk a long way down the mountain to catch the bus back to the city. They were in a hurry.

But outside the crowd, there was a young monk there, boxing regardless.

Zhou Zhi was happy again when he saw it. In Lingshan Temple, not only Wei Tuo could take off work to fish, but the young monk actually practiced Tai Chi.

Looking there for a while while holding on to the broom handle, Zhou Zhi's habit of being a teacher resurfaced: "Little Master, your fighting method is not quite right. Tai Chi is an internal martial art, and it emphasizes exerting energy from the core of the Dantian outwards. Therefore, any movement must have a sense of transmission from the waist and abdomen to the hands and feet.”

“For example, you just played. His right hand was holding the sparrow's tail. Firstly, his center of gravity was not adjusted with the steps. Secondly, his hand movements were in front of his shoulders and elbows. Although the movements were correct, the core meaning was misunderstood."

" Come on, come on, let me adjust it for you." Zhou Zhi put down his broom and stepped forward to help enthusiastically: "Come on, start doing the movements now, and move your center of gravity before you kick your feet. Moving the center of gravity is actually to move the position of the Dantian. Remember, all the magic power of Tai Chi comes from here. The Dantian is different. In theory, people should be still. Only when it starts to move can it become subtle and amplified. When it reaches the hands and feet, It’s become a big move.”

“So now we have to move our weight back, okay, and fall back naturally. , eh, isn’t it more natural? Let’s prepare the hand movements now. Remember, we still start from the Dantian. Now imagine that there is a flow of air leading from the lower abdomen to the shoulders. After arriving, it drives the shoulder joints to lift a small half circle. The upper arm reaches the elbow joint, so that the forearm can be brought over. It is the turn of the wrist and hand joints. Stand up and complete. ”

"You do it again now. Remember to do it as you just did. Remember that the movements are 'transmitted' sequentially through the joints from the waist and abdomen to the limbs. There is a process in which the back joints are driven by the front joints. At the beginning, you can focus on Take the shoulders and hips as the starting point of the movement. However, as you gradually improve in the future, you will start from the Dantian, including the waist, abdomen, chest and back, and join in this transmission process. "

" How is it now? Does it feel much smoother?”

The young monk did not object to someone’s advice. After trying it out according to the thoughtful method, he felt as if a new world had been opened, and he nodded repeatedly with excitement: “It turns out. This is how Neijiaquan is played!”

This is the embodiment of the basic philosophical concept of “Songkong Yuanrong” in Neijiaquan. In fact, the most fundamental part of Tai Chi’s many force-generating techniques is here. .

It can be said that Zhou Zhi has a deeper understanding of the philosophical concept of Tai Chi than most martial arts practitioners, and therefore his understanding of the operation of "inner strength" is better than that of ordinary "huijiazi" Many, the key is that many masters cannot express themselves and can only watch their apprentices worry.

Zhou Zhi, on the other hand, is the opposite. He is the kind of person who has a lot of theoretical knowledge and can only fool a layman with his actions. As for his fragile waist caused by long-term desk work, let alone compared with Liang Hong's boyfriend Yang Honghui, who is a martial artist. Even Liang Hong can't compare.

However, there is no problem with this young monk. His physical fitness is extremely strong. The only problem is that the methods of internal boxing may be completely different from the boxing methods he usually practices, and the ones in the book, or rather I don't know where I learned the boxing theory in the training class, but I can't understand it, so my movements are always a bit "stiff".

He also has a good understanding. Now that the window paper is torn, the little monk's movements immediately become natural.

"Well, I know that my boxing was good today." Just as the two of them were practicing one another with great interest, the old monk and the wheat seedlings had already saluted Wei Tuo and were about to cross. I went to the Main Hall in the square and happened to see this scene.

The young monk named Ming Ran quickly stopped his posture, bowed to the old monk, and said excitedly: "Master, this is the benefactor's advice! I understood the key point immediately." Oh? Can’t you tell, the donor is still a martial arts master?” The old monk looked at Zhou Zhi, does that mean he was mistaken?

As a result, Mai Xiaomiao said from the side: "Well, the Tai Chi and Tai Chi sword of the elbow are very powerful!"

Zhou Zhi almost spit out a mouthful of old blood because he couldn't hold it back, I just pointed out that this little monk is almost a The point is clear. This kind of understanding cannot be innate, but in the process of long-term training, you have accumulated enough experience in exerting force. In addition, the boy's skill is amazing, and the strength and toughness of the muscles are professional-level. Therefore, it can be done with ease.

The young monks are like this. The old monk can certainly imagine that the master and the apprentice are the real masters. Mai Xiaomiao doesn’t understand at all. He thinks that Zhou Zhi can be very powerful if he can play a few sword flowers and one routine. .

Hurry up and wave your hands: "No, no, I am a layman in martial arts. I usually just use routines for training, but because I know a descendant of Yang Style Tai Chi, I have taught him some boxing principles."

"We have heard the basic principles of boxing, but when it comes to understanding..." the old monk said.

"Master, the boxing principles taught by Master Zhu Shi are different from those taught by Teacher Zhouli." The young monk was very excited after learning something. He babbled about what Zhou Zhi had just told him, and then repeated it. Again.

“Control the waist and abdomen, drive the shoulders and hips, and transmit the movements...” The old monk lifted his legs up, and the front hem of the monk’s robe flew up. The old monk tucked it to his waist and tied his waist. , made a few moves at random: "Light, lively, seeking understanding, both yin and yang are harmonious." Without stagnation, if you can move a thousand catties with four ounces, you can open and close and control concentration. "Is that so?" Applause: "Okay!"

"Understood, go get my sword, and I'll ask the donor for advice." The old monk's understanding was no worse than that of the younger monk. He became very knowledgeable in a few moments, and he was very happy: "The donor usually uses it. Hard sword or software?”

“It’s a hard sword with a blade length of eighty-eight pounds and two pounds.” I can only practice routines, but it’s pretty common.”

“That’s similar to mine.” The old monk nodded: “The one I use has a blade length of seventy-five.”

Zhou Zhi’s. Although the sword is lighter, it is longer, and there is a lever principle involved. The feel is really similar to the old monk's sword.

Liaoran ran away quickly, and soon ran back with the old monk's sword: "Master, give it!"

Although Tai Chi Sword and Tai Chi are similar in basic theory, the sword is an extension of the body, and I have my own understanding of the principles of the sword. When I feel that my movements are a bit sluggish during practice, I will use my free index finger to move the sword finger. With the sword and index finger pointing in the same direction, think of the sword as an extension of the index finger and understand the movement this way.

Of course, such movements are dangerous, and the strength to control the sword is also insufficient, but the good thing is that you don’t have to go big or fast. Instead, the slower the better. The main thing is to understand how to standardize the movements and how to convey your thoughts. Once it's in place, then switch back to the standard sword-holding movements to consolidate.

Zhou Zhi and Mr. Gu jokingly call it the "literary quick fix". It is not about going into battle to kill the enemy, but just to understand the moves as soon as possible. There is nothing wrong with this.
