Chapter 436: Mu Qianmei performs Tai Chi
Mu Qianmei's table chatted quite happily, and the other wine tables were about the same, they were relatively restrained at first, but as they drank more and more, they gradually let go.
Halfway through the banquet, Mo Wentian also arranged a singing and dancing performance, and there was a small stage on the northernmost part of the second floor, which was a little further down from Mo Wentian's table.
There were seven or eight people in the back, and there were twelve beautiful girls dancing in the music in the front, similar to the songs and dances in the court, and many people were experiencing such a scene for the first time, so they were very engaged in watching it, and they were engrossed, and they all stopped drinking and eating.
Mo Wentian and his party of civil and military officials were accustomed to it, so they chatted while eating, and occasionally looked at it casually, without much interest.
Mu Qianmei also continued to drink and eat leisurely, and did not stare at the stage, but at this table, she and Senior Brother Yun seemed relatively indifferent, while the others were watching the performance on the stage with relish, because they were basically the first time to see such a performance, and they felt very fresh.
Even the snack merchant Wenlan Gongzi put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, looking at the beautiful women on the stage who danced smartly with the rhythm of the music, with long sleeves fluttering, light steps, and the twelve people dancing in unison, looking at it is indeed a beautiful enjoyment.
Senior Brother Yun found that Mu Qianmei didn't care much about the singing and dancing performance on the stage, so he asked softly:
"Miss Qianmei, can you easily introduce one or two about Taijiquan you are talking about?"
Mu Qianmei smiled and said:
"Of course it doesn't matter, in fact, when it comes to Tai Chi, you must first understand yin and yang, what is yin and yang? To put it simply, such as heaven and earth, sun and moon, day and night, cold and summer, men and women, up and down, etc., are two aspects of the unity of opposites, one yin and one yang are the way, they are interdependent, and can transform each other, there is no symbiosis, difficulty and ease are mutually beneficial, long and short are dwarfed, sound and sound are harmonious, and the front and back follow each other. ”
"There is a saying that Wuji gives birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to two instruments, Yin and Yang merge and give birth to all things, that is, Tao gives birth to one, one life gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things, our world is infinite, so it is called Taiji, all our tangible things come from the invisible, so it is called Wuji Shengtaiji, Taiji This entity is endless, that is, the universe is moving, and the movement produces yang energy, and when it moves to a certain extent, it will appear relatively still, and static will produce yin energy, so that one movement and one stillness, the yin and yang qi are each other's roots, and they run in infinity."
"Taijiquan is based on the concept of Tai Chi Yin and Yang, with the mind to dominate the whole body, through the repeated practice of meditation and relaxation, to guide the qi, to the qi to urge the shape, in order to enter the wonderful hand one luck one Tai Chi, Tai Chi one luck into the state of mind, and Tai Chi has a subtle and introverted, continuous, soft to overcome the rigid, rapid and slow, flowing water of the boxing style, so that the practitioner's mind, qi, shape, and spirit can gradually tend to the supreme realm of harmony."
"In actual combat, the biggest feature of Taijiquan is labor-saving, the emphasis is on borrowing strength, that is, to use the light and agile body, to the intention of luck, to hit people, for a long time, the body is omnipresent, to reach the realm of four or two thousand catties. The strength of a body lies in the whole, the qi of a body lies in the convergence, the body can seek the right one by one, light and free, to achieve 'a motionless and motionless, a static and not static', a person is close to me, I can get the opportunity under the next, and on the top can get the momentum, up and down with each other, before and after the left and right are not forceful. To be able to gain opportunity and gain power is to be able to sacrifice oneself and obey others; can know oneself and know the other, in order to change due to the enemy; Due to the changes of the enemy, we can achieve the realm of 'the introduction of failure, four or two thousand catties', in order to be superb. ”
"Actually, having said so much, the key is to know how to follow the trend, use strength to fight, overcome rigidity with softness, and be able to grasp the best opportunity to shoot in battle."
Senior Brother Yun listened very carefully, and he had a feeling that he didn't understand, as if he had grasped something in it, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't seem to have grasped anything.
Senior Brother Yun here heard it in a fog, and he didn't know what to say, but there was a person at the next table who seemed to be enlightened, and suddenly understood a lot of truths, that is, he had been able to use it in actual combat, and he knew how to use it, but he didn't understand the truth, as soon as Mu Qianmei said this, he had a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
It turned out that when he heard Senior Brother Yun ask Mu Qianmei about the principle of Taijiquan, he turned his attention to this side when he didn't know it, no matter how wonderful the dance was, it was not as attractive as martial arts to him.
After listening to Mu Qianmei's words, some of his vague thoughts suddenly became clear.
At this moment, the performance on the stage had ended, and a group of performers slowly retreated, at this time, Mo Wentian suddenly said:
"Every year at such a celebration banquet, our winners perform a show, and who will perform a show on behalf of you who has won the top 10 to show off your talents?"
Everyone, look at me, I'll look at you, I don't know who to recommend for a while, at this time, Zhou Ziran said:
"Today in the ring, Roma's paintings did not show his normal painting level because he couldn't calm down, so we let Roma go on stage to make a picture for everyone, how about it?"
The people present immediately echoed loudly:
"Good, good, good!"
Rome slowly stood up and said calmly:
"If you talk about painting, my level is far from Miss Mu Qianmei, if you want to perform live, then Miss Mu Qianmei should also perform for everyone, everyone said, how about it?"
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and suddenly said in unison:
"Good!"
The voice was neat and consistent, and he seemed even more excited and excited, and it seemed that he wanted to see Mu Qianmei's performance.
Mu Qianmei shook her head with a wry smile and said:
"The level of my painting has been shown in the ring before, and if I paint again, it is only at that level, everyone has seen it!"
Li Gufeng, who rarely spoke, suddenly said:
"Since everyone has seen the skills of painting, then Miss Qianmei will change her talent to perform, I believe that Miss Qianmei must have other talents."
Everyone at the scene immediately coaxed:
"Yes, yes, yes, another talent show."
Mu Qianmei stood up gently, everyone's voices were so high, she didn't want to ruin everyone's interest, and after a moment of silence, she said slowly:
"In this case, today is the celebration banquet at the end of Dabi, everyone is so interested, I will perform a unique martial art of our Chinese tribe for you, called Taijiquan, I hope you can like it."
Saying that, she walked to the stage, first found the musician who played the music, ordered a soothing tune, and asked the musician to play, while she walked to the middle of the stage, and bowed to the audience with her fists generously, quite a bit of sassy and heroic.
The soft music sounded slowly, Mu Qianmei calmed herself down in the center of the stage, and then gently raised her left leg, cooperated with both hands, slowly hugged and stretched, the movements were soft and smooth, and the clouds flowed, which looked very beautiful.
With the rhythm of the music, Mu Qianmei's whole body began to swing softly and powerfully, every joint was dexterously coordinated, listening to the melodious music physically and mentally, her hands were dancing like white clouds, and there was also a bit of strength hidden in the soft movements.
In her previous life, for the sake of health and to maintain her figure, she usually paid attention to exercise, ran every day, practiced yoga, and was also very interested in Tai Chi, so she deliberately studied.
However, at that time, she was just used as a kind of exercise to strengthen the body, and she had not used it in actual fighting, and she had not even performed on the stage, but now she stood in a higher realm, and when she looked back to understand Taijiquan, she also had a lot of new gains.
I saw that her movements were light and round, soft and slow, orderly opening and closing, rigid and soft, with a sense of softness and etherealism, Mu Qianmei said slowly while performing:
"Tai Chi, born without extremes, the opportunity of movement and stillness, the mother of yin and yang, the movement is divided, the static is combined, there is no excess, and it stretches with the song."
"People just I say softly to go, I follow the sticky back of people, urgent response, slow to follow, although the changes are endless, and the reason is consistent, from the familiar and gradually understand the strength, from the understanding of the strength and the level and the gods, but not the force for a long time, can not suddenly penetrate."
"The void spirit is strong, the air is sinking dantian, impartial, flickering, the left is empty, the right is heavy, the high is high, the lower is deep, the longer it is, the more it is retreated, the feather can not be added, the flies and insects can not fall, people don't know me, I only know people."
"Heroes are invincible, cover all from this, there are a lot of skills, although there are differences, nothing more than that, strong bullying weak, slow to let fast ears, strong to fight weak, slow hands to make hands fast, is all innate natural ability, not about academic ability and promising. The sentence of checking four or two thousand catties shows that it is not a force to win; Looking at the shape of the elderly, how can you do it quickly. ”
"Standing like a scale, living like a wheel, biased and heavy, double is sluggish, every time you see a few years of pure work, can not be transported, the rate is self-controlled, double disease is not enlightened, want to avoid this disease, you need to know yin and yang; Sticky is walking, walking is sticky, yang does not leave yin, yin does not leave yang; Yin and yang are mutually beneficial, and the party understands strength. After understanding the strength, the more you practice, the more refined you are, the more you know and figure it out, and gradually do what you want from your heart. The so-called difference is a thousand miles, and scholars must distinguish it in detail. ”
Mu Qianmei was talking and performing at the same time, and her steady steps seemed to make people unable to push them down; The light and slow movements seem to be able to unload all the heavy forces; One by one, the eyes were focused, as if the whole world had disappeared except for himself.
The soft and calm situation, like a heavy ship, swings calmly and steadily in the river, with both heavy and soft power.
All every move, is the main use of the will, with the traction of the air, whether it is telescopic opening and closing, or retracting and retracting, swallowing and containing, all of them are driven by the traction of the will, led by the waist and spine.
Taijiquan is nothing more than moving and closing quietly, but everything must be done on a steady basis, and there should be no panic and recklessness.
Although it is quiet, it hides the motive in the stillness; Although it is moving, there is stillness in the movement, one movement and one stillness, each other is the root, this is the essence of Taijiquan.
Everyone was also attracted by Mu Qianmei's wonderful and beautiful performance, and they all watched quietly, as if they had entered a mysterious realm, and even their breathing became inaudible, and only one person said with a somewhat disdainful tone:
"Can such a gentle and slow punch be effective in battle?"
