Chapter 5 Chapter 5 I want to practice martial arts
In the third year of Zhengyong, on April 6, a big event happened in Dayu.
When the King of Tang was being escorted to Nanyue County, he was attacked by a group of bandits while passing through Niutoushan.
After an hour of fierce fighting with the bandits, the escorting officers and soldiers retreated in disgrace, and the king of Tang was killed!
This incident caused an uproar in Dayu, and almost everyone believed that it was the work of Emperor Zhengyong.
But this incident was quickly overwhelmed by another incident.
There's going to be a war.
Because the King of Tang was killed, a section of the Zhenbei Army guarding Liangzhou and Binzhou mutinied, causing chaos throughout Liangzhou and Binzhou.
Bordering Liangzhou and Binzhou of Dayu was Wu State.
The Wu people were fierce and good at riding and shooting. While Dayu was dealing with the affairs of the Tang Dynasty King and the Zhenbei Army, the third prince of the Wu Kingdom personally led the cavalry into Liangzhou and conquered twelve cities.
They plundered countless people, gold, silver, cattle and sheep.
Due to the mutiny of the Zhenbei Army, Liang and Bin Prefectures had no soldiers to fight, and could only allow the people of Wu State to plunder at will in Dayu territory.
On that day, Emperor Zhengyong quickly mobilized troops from Qingzhou, Yunzhou, and Haizhou to go to Liang and Binzhou to suppress the rebellion and resist Wu State.
These things have nothing to do with Zheng Yi.
At this time, he was practicing martial arts with Wang Zhongyi in the palace school.
"This is Yang Shaoyong, the gold medal consecrator of the enshrining academy. From now on, you should learn martial arts from him."
Behind Wang Zhongyi followed a tall, middle-aged man with bright eyes.
Judging from Zheng Yi's eyes, the Yang Shaoyong in front of him can definitely bear the title of 'martial arts master'.
His eyebrows are like swords, his arms are powerful, and his bearing is extraordinary.
Yang Shaoyong was also a little strange in his heart. He was originally working well in the Yamen, but who knew that he was approached by Wang Zhongyi, the eunuch, who said he wanted to teach someone martial arts.
Before, he thought he was going to teach the son of a certain prince or minister, but he didn't expect to be taken directly into the palace!
Zheng Yi nodded slightly and said: "I will trouble Master Yang more in the future."
Yang Shaoyong guessed in his heart and said quickly: "Don't dare to be...a noble person. From now on, my subordinates will come to the palace to teach you for an hour every day. You see..."
The two of them looked at Wang Zhongyi, and Wang Zhongyi said indifferently: "As long as I don't miss His Majesty's business... I enter the palace after midnight every day, and I'm not allowed to wander around at will. Do you understand?"
Yang Shaoyong said quickly: "Yes! Eunuch Wang."
After Wang Zhongyi left, Yang Shaoyong said: "May I ask what kind of martial arts you have learned before?"
Zheng Yi shook his head and said: "I haven't learned any of them."
"I wonder if I can check your bones for you?"
"Okay."
Yang Shaoyong couldn't guess Zheng Yi's identity, so he could only refer to him as a 'noble person'.
As for Zheng Yi, it was impossible to explain his identity.
After a few breaths, Yang Shaoyong retreated awkwardly.
How do you practice this when your bones are so low?
And he also discovered something.
Zheng Yi actually has a human skin mask on his face!
Although it is a high-quality human skin mask, for a martial arts master like him who has been tested for many years, he can see through it at a glance.
But this is a royal matter, and he doesn't dare to inquire about it casually.
After pondering for a few breaths, Yang Shaoyong said: "Your Excellency, the name of the martial arts that the prince has ordered your subordinates to teach you is the "Five Spirits Body Training Technique". I hope that you can practice it with your heart."
""Five Spirits Body Training Technique"?" Zheng Yi's eyes lit up and he said: "What do you say?"
"The Five Spirits are a kind of martial arts technique developed by observing five kinds of living creatures, including tigers, cranes, snakes, eagles, and apes, and observing their movements and expressions."
"By practicing this technique, you can master five different boxing and kicking techniques. At the same time, mixed with the corresponding breathing techniques and medicinal baths, you can temper the warrior's body and lay the foundation."
"The ferocity of the tiger, the agility of the crane, the cunning of the snake, the agility of the eagle, and the tyranny of the ape are all in it."
"At the same time, this method is also the body-training method that our Dayu royal family is best at."
"Almost everyone among dignitaries and relatives of the emperor can learn."
"That's it." Zheng Yi nodded and said, "Please teach me, Master Yang." "Yes, noble man."
Yang Shaoyong said respectfully, then spread out his body and said: "For those who are exposed to martial arts for the first time, the first thing to do is to train the legs and lower body. Please first put a stick of incense into the horse stance."
"Huh?"
"Zha Ma Bu."
Yang Shaoyong demonstrated, and Zheng Yi could only follow the practice.
The sun was shining brightly, and the two were teaching and learning, and the time passed quickly.
The next day, continue practicing.
Zheng Yi was a little uncomfortable at first, but when he thought about it, he could only grit his teeth and persevere in order to survive.
Horse steps, kicks, lock lifts, and exertion.
At the beginning, Yang Shaoyong did not teach the "Five Spirit Body Training Technique" at all, but taught some basic martial arts training methods.
After practicing, Zheng Yi returned to the room and secretly practiced push-ups, frog jumps, jumping jacks and other exercises.
Coupled with the good food and drink, and the medicinal baths served by the little maid at night, my body grew rapidly.
It was not until ten days later that Yang Shaoyong nodded and said: "My lord, your physique has almost been trained. Today I will teach you the real martial arts skills."
"Five Spirits Body Training Technique"!
"Tiger boxing is mostly based on claw skills, imitating the boxing techniques formed by tigers pouncing on food and jumping. The first weight is fierce!"
As Yang Shaoyong spoke, he displayed his body and began to demonstrate boxing techniques.
In an instant, he moved, his waist slightly bent and his hands raised into claws, as if he had turned into a real tiger.
The chest is held, the back is pulled up, the shoulders are sunken and the elbows are dropped. The body method is swallowing, spitting, floating and sinking, and the energy starts from the waist and reaches the fingertips.
The whole person is like a tiger descending the mountain, with a strong fist and a fierce momentum.
The wind of the fist hit his face, but Zheng Yi's eyes were extremely fanatical, carefully memorizing Yang Shaoyong's every move.
Afterwards, Zheng Yi started practicing on his own.
Yang Shaoyong teaches from time to time.
"Your Majesty, the speed is slow. Tiger Fist is a punch, but it mainly uses claw techniques..."
"Noble, your claws are sharp, your strength is too weak!"
"My lord, your waist and abdomen are too weak, and you have to continue walking!"
"Noble..."
That night, Zheng Yi lay softly on the bed after taking a medicinal bath.
The intensity of practice on this day was much more tiring than the previous days.
However, he was still very excited. His eyes were closed, but his energy was focused on the ancient mirror in his mind.
"I have already practiced the "Five Spirits Body Training Technique" today, but I don't know the Yin and Yang treasure..."
In the sea of consciousness, the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror is still floating quietly in the air without any movement.
"No movement...did I guess wrong?"
"Or... the "Five Spirits Body Training Technique" is just a body training method, not an internal skill?"
"The origin of the "White Lotus Reincarnation Magic Art" is too strange. I can't reveal it, and I can't control it. It can only be obtained through dual cultivation."
"No matter what, let's practice martial arts first. This is the only way I can think of to save my life now!"
For the next half month, Zheng Yi has been practicing the Tiger Fist in the "Five Spirits Body Training Technique".
Soon, it was unfamiliar and uncomfortable at the beginning, and gradually mastered it.
A few days later, Yang Shaoyong found Zheng Yi: "Your Excellency is already familiar with the "Five Spiritual Duan Taishu", and today I will teach you a health-preserving internal skill."
""Changchun Gong"."
