Kunyu Mountain, deep in the mountains, Cangshan Taoist Temple.

A young man, playing Tai Chi smoothly. On the side, a Taoist in an old Taoist robe.

This young man's name is Lin Cheng, because he failed the college entrance examination, he went to Kunyu Mountain to relax, and by chance met an ancient and dilapidated Taoist temple in the mountains, and met his master, Lichen Zhenren.

Since then, Lin Chengcheng has followed Master Lichen to learn art in the mountains, and occasionally Master Lichen's friend Zhengang Zhenren also comes over occasionally, and Tang Zhendong also learns boxing with Zhengang Zhenren.

Zhengang Zhenren practiced Xingyi Boxing, and Lichen Zhenren practiced Taijiquan.

Infinite mixed element pile. The power of the poleless pile is focused on the infinite, and the round pile work strives to be round.

The slightly curved legs are like a tank full of water that is about to overflow at any time, but it seems to overflow, and the water overflows a light layer out of the mouth of the tank, but it still cannot overflow. Micro-song is also a song that is not a song. It means that the strength used in the legs is just enough to support the legs to complete this slightly curved action, and there is no more strength, and you can't stand without a trace of strength, which is the feeling. It's like adding one more drop of water to a tank and it will overflow the tank.

The breathing of pile gong adopts the reverse abdominal breathing. Reverse abdominal breathing is relative to abdominal breathing. Abdominal breathing is well understood, it is the process of inhaling and exhaling in a relaxed state. Reverse abdominal breathing, on the other hand, is to flip abdominal breathing upside down. When inhaling, the lower abdomen adducts, the diaphragm rises, and the dantian qi ascends and gathers in the stomach, the stomach naturally bulges, and the chest expands naturally, increasing the lung capacity. When exhaling, the lower abdomen protrudes outward, the diaphragm descends, and the qi sinks to the dantian, and the stomach and chest are naturally calmed.

Pile Gong should experience a transcendent meaning from Pile Gong, which is a feeling that is difficult to describe, like a faint pleasure from the heart, which can only be understood but not spoken.

The internal strength of Tai Chi is practiced by the breath in conjunction with the mind.

"You have to follow this breath when standing on the pile and in your fist, of course, if you don't get used to it, you can take your time first. ”

Lichen taught everything he had learned in his chest. Among them, it also allowed Lin Cheng to have a good experience of Zhengang's Xingyi Boxing.

The days change, Lin Cheng is in this mountain, this practice is three years, during which he only went home once in the first year to report to his parents, and never returned home once, Lin Cheng also grew from a half-old boy to a young man, the long hair over the shoulder was tied at will, the resolute face was in the shape of a national character, the nose was straight and the mouth was wide, the complexion was slightly dark, in modern parlance, it was called bronze, the stature was medium, less than one meter eight, especially a pair of eyes, blazing, there seemed to be lightning at first glance.

"Neijiaquan is the most precious treasure of the Chinese nation's martial arts, integrating many principles such as martial arts, philosophy, Neidan, dialectic, etc., and is the greatest achievement in the history of kung fu in the world. Neijiaquan focuses on the cultivation of internal strength, and Taijiquan is also an internal boxing, and Taijiquan has formed a complete system from breathing to pile gong to routines. ”

"Chengzi, your kung fu still needs to be experienced, kung fu focuses on honing, there are so many things in the moves, you also have all the tricks, you can go down the mountain and go to the society. ”

"Master, I remember. Lin Cheng was a little choked, after all, after so many years of getting along with the master day and night, coarse tea and light food, he had unconsciously regarded the master as a father.

"Before you go, the master will tell you about the entry of kung fu, the realm of kung fu from the division of a generation of martial arts master Sun Lutang, there are so many layers, bright energy, dark energy, chemical strength, your internal strength has laid a better foundation, and now it has just entered the dark energy stage, and it can only be regarded as general in society, remember, the masters who are not born in the world do not know how many, and they must know how to advance and retreat when they encounter things. ”

"Then master, you must have turned your strength now, right?"

"The master is just in the details. ”

Lin Cheng was a little confused, but he didn't ask.

In fact, there are still a few layers of kung fu realm after Hua Jin, and Li Chen didn't explain to Lin Cheng, the kung fu of the dust Dao people is no longer something that can be described by Hua Jin, and Li Chen has already reached the realm of subtlety, and even half a foot has entered the threshold of emptiness.

"In the future, the cultivation is high or low, mainly in yourself, the master just leads you into the door of Tai Chi, Tai Chi is boxing, Tai Chi is a person. ”

"Oh, I remember. ”

"You practice kung fu well, you can't always solve things by force, Tai Chi's softness is more important to reflect in dealing with people, others are hard, you can't be hard, you can be soft. Avoid its edge, solve it in a roundabout way, and everything in the world has Taiji. ”

Lin Cheng never knew that Tai Chi could be explained in this way, being a person, everything in the world, and Tai Chi everywhere.

"You should pack up and go down the mountain, when you go back, you must discover Tai Chi from all aspects of your life, and you must practice it in your life. I remember coming back in August three years later, the competition that the master and your uncle agreed upon. ”

Lin Cheng seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but he responded: "Remember." ”

The way down the mountain seems to be different from the previous time on the mountain, I haven't walked for three or four years, and now the trees on the mountain are more lush than before, and the old path is long gone. Lin Cheng sometimes walked, sometimes ran wildly, and kept in mind the master's explanation of the key to Tai Chi step: Tai Chi, walking like a cat, like a cat with a mat on its feet, light, silent, fast.

The weather in the mountains was unpredictable, and after a while, it rained lightly, just enough to wet clothes, and the mountain road slowly began to muddy, and Lin Cheng's legs were slightly bent, and he walked like a fly. The heel of the trouser tube was dry and quiet, and there was not a trace of smudge.

"The steps of Tai Chi Kung Fu are like walking on a muddy road, fast, but the heels do not bring muddy water, and they are flat and flat. Of course, these are all starting from slow, from slow to very slow, and then from very slow to fast, remember: Tai Chi is a process. ”

The mastery of these kung fu is not achieved overnight, it is a diligent practice for many years before it can be put on the body.

Bypassing from the top of the highest peak of Kunyu Mountain, this is already a familiar appearance for Lin Cheng, who often came to play when he was a child, can he not be familiar. Familiar scenic spots, familiar mountain trails, and the flagpole of the village brigade branch can already be seen on the mountainside.

Approaching the village, Lin Cheng's heart was quite uneasy, after so many years, he didn't know how his parents' health was?

When he arrived at the entrance of the village, Lin Cheng pinched a card given to him by the master, which contained 100,000 yuan, which was left to the master when the Zhengang Taoist left, and the master's words were still in his ears: "Chengzi, you have studied art for so many years, and you haven't sent a penny to your family, give this money to your parents" Lin Cheng repeatedly shirked it, but the dust was just not allowed, and Lin Cheng had to accept it.

"Let's fix my hair first, it's too messy. ”

Lin Cheng arrived in the town, and the township where Dianhou Village is located is called Longquan Town, which is a small town civilized with hot springs.

"Hey, Chengzi, when are you coming back?" Lin Cheng was walking on the most prosperous hot spring street in Longquan, in fact, Longquan is also a street with a name. Lin Cheng turned his head and saw that this was not Li Qiang, who had played since he was a child in the village?

Li Qiang and Lin Cheng are friends in the same village and grew up together with bare buttocks, but Li Qiang is three years older than Lin Cheng. At that time, the village was full of gangs, usually Li Qiang led Lin Cheng and some friends to steal a watermelon in the field, a peach in the mountain, or something.

Li Qiang is the recognized boss of their gang, he has not been a good child since he was a child, and he was even more brave and ruthless when he was a teenager, he did not complete compulsory education at all, and dropped out of junior high school early. Li Qiang is relatively tall, more than 1.8 meters tall, and has a burly physique. Dark skin. The black and purple face is second only to Bao Gong.

When Lin Chengke was a child, he followed Li Qiang into trouble a lot, and he was scolded by Lin's mother for this matter. Later, Li Qiang dropped out of junior high school, and later went to work in the city, and slowly Lin Cheng's academic performance improved, which was really a bad friend.

"Oh, Qiangzi, why are you?" Lin Cheng also smiled when he saw that it was Li Qiang, and a long-lost friendship came to his heart.

"Haha, I just came back, and I haven't arrived home yet, so I'm thinking about going to take a bath and then go home" Li Qiang smiled.

"Me too, but I'm going to get a haircut first" Lin Cheng shook his long flowing hair.

"I said buddy, people who have gone to school are just different, the whole artistic youth. Li emphasized.

Li Qiang often goes home, and the parents in the village basically know about the short things. also knew that Lin Cheng was admitted to high school and learned to be one of the best. Later, I also knew that Lin Cheng went to work, but I didn't know where to work?

This is not a childhood friend when I see it, and it is very cordial.

"Let's go, buddy will accompany you to get a haircut first, and then let's go to Bubbles together, let's go to Xiaohong's hair house." As soon as Li Qiang mentioned Xiaohong, his eyes lit up.

Xiaohong is actually not very old, she is two or three years older than Li Qiang, but she got out of school early, graduated from junior high school and learned the craft of barbering, and has been opening a hair shop in the town. Children in junior high school are also ignorant of feelings, Xiaohong just learned to cut hair, and the hairstyle she left for herself was also trendy, good-looking and very feminine. Li Qiang had a good impression of Xiaohong as early as junior high school, but he had no choice but to fall into the flowers, and the water was ruthless. Later, Li Qiang went to work in the city, and this relationship that did not start came to an end. But at that time, Lin Cheng's ears were always filled with Li Qiang's words "How beautiful Xiaohong is, how beautiful she is!"

As the saying goes: what you don't get is always the best, Li Qiang still missed Xiaohong a few years before he worked, and then slowly, with Xiaohong's marriage, this feeling was let go.

The two talked and laughed and came to the door of the "Xiaohong Hair House", and lifted the curtain, "Sister Xiaohong, do you remember me?" Li Qiangqiang said with a grin.

"Hehe, isn't this Brother Qiangzi, you come to see me every time you come back, can I not remember you?" Xiaohong's tone had gradually become bold with the birth of a child, except for Lin Cheng's stunned.

Xiaohong in Lin Cheng's memory is a very shy girl who blushes when she sees people, in addition to dressing up fashionably, but she is still very conservative in her bones.

"Yo, this is ???" After Xiaohong greeted Li Qiang, she turned her head to see Lin Cheng.

"This is the adult son of our village, and I think I was also your admirer back then. Li Qiang casually snorted haha.

In fact, Lin Cheng matured later, and he didn't have that kind of Li Qiang's feelings for Xiaohong, but he didn't care, and made a small joke, and he also catered to it, "Yes, I think when I saw Sister Xiaohong, my legs were weak and I couldn't walk, and I bled for you?"

Xiaohong smiled.

Li Qiang also laughed, and said in his heart, "I didn't know that your kid was also interested in Xiaohong, and he also fought with his rival in love, why did you tell the truth today?"

"Sister Xiaohong, I want to confess to you, one summer, I climbed through your back window and secretly saw you taking a shower, and my nosebleed at that time came down. Lin Cheng's next words made Li Qiang, who had already found a stool to do, jump up and cover Lin Cheng's mouth.

One day after school, Lin Cheng walked to the door of the house and met Li Qiang, Li Qiang mysteriously pulled Lin Cheng to a secret corner and confessed a secret to Lin Cheng: "I saw Xiaohong wiping naked from the back window of Xiaohong's hair house in the afternoon, and I had a nosebleed at that time. ”

Lin Cheng laughed.
