Lin Cheng's idea of learning was not just born, but had already been generated. It's a pity that I didn't go to college, and now I feel the importance of knowledge even more, although practicing martial arts can strengthen people's bodies and improve reaction speed, but it can't make up for the lack of knowledge.

Although Lin Cheng has never regretted embarking on the road of practicing martial arts, it does not mean that it is not his regret to miss college.

It happened that Lin Cheng received a call from Vice President Chen of Yanwei University, inviting him to give another lecture for students recently, national art and national righteousness, and educate students.

"Master Lin, the last speech was very effective, and after hearing about it, many students actively asked when you can come again. ”

"Principal Chen, that's an exaggeration. ”

"This is the real reaction of the students, I am just a microphone, Master Lin, when do you think you will be free to meet the requests of the students?"

"Hehe, it's still the old rules, I listen to Principal Chen. It just so happens that I also have something I would like to ask Principal Chen to help with. ”

"Master Lin, if you have something, just say it, as long as I can do it. ”

"Let's go, Principal Chen, you are sure to call me. ”

"Okay. ”

Yanwei University is the most famous university in Yanwei City, but it is not ranked in the country, after all, Yanwei is only a small prefecture-level city.

After receiving a call from Vice President Chen, Lin Cheng drove half an hour to Vice President Chen's office.

"Hello, Principal Chen. ”

"Hello, Master Lin. ”

"Principal Chen, if you are so polite, I won't dare to come in the future. ”

"Good, good, you're welcome, you're welcome. ”

The two sat down on the rattan sofa in Vice President Chen's office, and Vice President Chen poured tea for Lin Cheng, "Master Lin, you said you had something to do with me last time?"

"Hehe, Principal Chen, I have been feeling poor in knowledge recently, and I want to go back to the furnace for education, do you want to make arrangements? I don't need any graduation certificate, I just want to study. ”

Principal Chen looked at Lin Cheng's eyes, "This thing is easy to do, if you study in our school, just follow the class." The classes in the university are all open, but our school is a second-rate school, and the level can be poor. Besides, you are a guest lecturer in our school, I'm afraid the learning effect will not be so good, you wait, I want to think about my classmates and friends, I will call and ask later, you prepare a speech first, after the speech, I will call you to write a letter. ”

"Okay, thank you, Principal Chen. ”

"It's all trifle, haha. ”

This speech was still in the auditorium where Lin Cheng gave a speech last time, the difference was that the auditorium was at most two-thirds of the people last time, but this time it was full, and even the corridors and doorways were full of people.

Obviously, Principal Chen told Lin Cheng that the students welcomed Lin Cheng very much, and it was not a lie.

"Students, good afternoon, my name is Lin Cheng, many of my classmates may not have seen me, President Chen came to me, I was actually very scared, I didn't go to university, so I'm not sure I can be convinced by my classmates. In addition, I am very happy to discuss the interesting anecdotes of martial arts in the Republic of China with my classmates. ”

The students in the audience burst into earth-shattering applause and responded to Lin Cheng's words, but obviously the students admired people with real materials, and Lin Cheng was humble enough, and Lin Cheng was a celebrity in the news newspaper recently, and he was about to reach the point of becoming a household name.

"Thank you, classmates, let's continue last time, last time we told the story of many predecessors and sages of Bajiquan and Xingyi Boxing, I myself am practicing Neijiaquan, this time I will talk about the other two Neijiaquan, Baguazhang and Taijiquan. ”

"I myself am a Tai Chi player, but I have heard the stories of Baguazhang's predecessors. When it comes to Baguazhang, we can't fail to mention a commentary by Mr. Shan Tianfang, Tong Lin's biography, the prototype of this Tong Lin is Dong Haichuan, the representative of Baguazhang. ”

"Dong Haichuan is the founder of Baguazhang, he absconded to the Suwang Mansion in Kyoto on suspicion of murder, and listened to the eunuchs. No one in the palace knew that he was a skilled striker. Once, the head of the Suwang Mansion was in the martial arts hall to perform martial arts. The guests of Suwang's Mansion and many people in the palace watched, and the water in the enclosure was impassable.

At this time, King Su called Dong Haichuan to offer tea, but it was difficult to enter due to the crowding of the audience. In a hurry, he jumped over the wall with a tray in one hand and a pot in the other, and sent tea to King Su to offer tea to the guests. King Su was shocked and asked, "You are also proficient in martial arts?"

Haichuan replied: "I know a little bit about it." King Su ordered Dong Haichuan to perform on the spot. Dong Gong calmly performed, only to see him turn left and right, agile footwork, and unpredictable and changeable palms. The body rotates left and right, sometimes high and sometimes low, one zhang high when the body rises, and when the body falls, it is like a harrier drilling into the forest, flowing clouds and flowing water, surging endlessly.

Seeing this, the audience was stunned and silent. At this moment, Dong Gong lifted his breath and took off into the air, jumped several feet high, spun down, and landed silently. The prince was shocked and asked, "What is the name of this technique?"

At that time, Dong Gong thought that this palm was created by himself, and it was not named, so he was named "Baguazhang" in a hurry. Since then, Baguazhang has begun to emerge. At that time, King Su ordered Dong Gong to compete with the chief manager to divide the high and low. In less than two rounds, Dong Gong knocked his opponent to the ground with one palm, and the opponent walked away in shame. Later, King Su ordered Dong Haichuan to be the head of the Su Wangfu Nursing Hospital. Later, he sorted out and supplemented it according to the Bagua doctrine and perfected it day by day. Since then, Dong Haichuan's reputation has been shocked, and he has taught more apprentices day by day. The most famous disciples were Yin Fu and Cheng Tinghua. ”

"Yin Fu's Yin School Bagua and Cheng Tinghua's Cheng School Bagua are the two most important schools of Baguazhang. Yin Fu is a fried fritter, Cheng Tinghua is a seller of glasses, Yin Pai is characterized by ox tongue palms, and Cheng Pai is characterized by dragon-shaped palms. Here let's focus on one of Dong Haichuan's apprentices, Gong Baotian, this person has something to do with our Yanwei, and his hometown is from our Rushan. This Gong Baotian practiced extremely hard, and he was quite smart, and he was successful at the age of twenty-three or four. ”

Later, this Gong Baotian was in the court to Cixi and Guangxu as bodyguards, oh, at that time called the guard, won the highest honor of the guard, Qin gave the "yellow coat", and then the Qing court was really cowardly, Gong Baotian resigned and returned to his hometown. ”

"At that time, a group of villagers in Muping County trafficked vermicelli to our Yanwei, and clashed with a group of strongmen in the Daoping area, and the two sides had a big fight. Someone informed Gong Baotian about this. Faced with this life-threatening event, Gong Baotian didn't say a word, and immediately rode to the scene. Before Baotian could get off the horse, he was surrounded by that group of strongmen.

At this time, there was a group of sparrows squeaking in the room, Baotian kicked the saddle, flew to catch the sparrows and landed gently, and said in his mouth: "Little sparrows, dare to be rude." The people present were stunned by this flying trick of catching birds. Later, after Baotian's mediation, a bloody incident was avoided, and Gong Baotian's reputation of "being as light as a swallow and being able to reach out to catch birds" spread all over the Jiaodong Peninsula, and there was an endless stream of people who came to apprentice and seek art. ”

"This is not counting, everyone knows Zhang Zuolin, the warlord of the Northeast Feng Department, this person has invited many masters to be instructors, and there are countless masters under his net, and he has great respect for these masters, Sun Lutang, the first master of the Republic of China, and Li Shuwen have served in Zhang Zuolin's army, as well as Zhang Zhankui of Xingyi Boxing and other masters. Our fellow Gong Baotian also served as a personal guard under Zhang Zuolin until Zhang Dashuai was killed in Huanggutun. ”

At first, Zhang Zuolin saw that Gong Baotian was thin and small, and suspected that he was in vain. Gong Baotian saw Zhang Zuolin's thoughts, so he asked to see Zhang Zuolin's marksmanship, and he was willing to be a target.

Hearing Baotian's suggestion, everyone present was stunned, because everyone knew that Zhang Zuolin was more familiar with playing with a gun than with chopsticks for eating, and he hit the incense head at night a hundred paces away, with a hundred shots and five false shots, not to mention a big living person?

Zhang Zuolin was also suspicious, and yelled at Baotian: "You don't want to die!" Later, seeing Baotian's calm demeanor, he reluctantly agreed. Everyone came to the garden, all for Baotian sweat, Baotian walked twenty steps away, selected the terrain, faced Zhang Zuolin to stand still, Zhang Zuolin pulled out the gun in his hand, said: "Hit your left shoulder", the gun sounded, only to see Baotian standing in place, but the body turned, no injury. Zhang Zuolin said again: "Hit your right shoulder." After the gunshot, Baotian remained in place.

In fact, when Zhang was shooting, Baotian's eyes were staring at Zhang's hand, and when Zhang pulled the bolt, Baotian dodged the bullet, Zhang Zuolin was a little anxious, and shouted loudly: "You kid is deliberately out of my ugliness!" After speaking, he raised his gun and wanted to shoot, but Gong Baotian was missing in front of him. Later, Zhang Zuolin actually let Gong Baotian be his personal bodyguard. ”

The students who had listened to Lin Cheng's speech once before were of course elated as if they were listening to the story, and the students who had not heard Lin Cheng's speech were so real to know the martial arts of the Republic of China from the mouth of a martial arts person, especially this kind of master who was very close to the region, Gong Baotian himself was a Yanwei person, so he was more interested in the martial arts of the Republic of China described by Lin Cheng.

The martial arts described in Lin Cheng's mouth are not a single description of the entire context of martial arts, but a typical anecdote explanation of a certain person or a few people.

"Actually, I don't know much about Baguazhang, these are all mentioned by listening to the master's practice, let's talk about Tai Chi, hehe, that is, my boxing. ”

"Taijiquan can not only strengthen the body but also self-defense, Taijiquan combined with the practice of refining qi, practicing qi and turning the spirit, practicing the spirit and returning the void, and also the Taoist qigong method of the void, opening people's wisdom, developing human energy, so that people can prolong their lives and live forever, is a collection of martial arts and health in one, superior boxing. ”

"When it comes to Tai Chi, you can't fail to mention one person, the founder of Wudang Taoism, Zhang Sanfeng. Zhang Sanfeng has too many legendary stories, and many film and television books have also dabbled in them. Zhang Sanfeng is a sloppy Taoist, which is said to be unkempt. ”
