Save the Bachelor of Heaven

After Zhang Songxi came back, Zhang Sanfeng taught Tai Chi and Tai Chi sword to his disciples.

"My set of Tai Chi and Tai Chi Sword are completely different from the traditional martial arts. They emphasize stopping with stillness and attacking later." He explained while demonstrating.

He drooped his hands, with the backs of his hands facing outward, his fingers slightly stretched, and his feet spread parallel to each other. Then he slowly raised his arms to his chest, half-circling his left arm, with his palms facing his face forming a yin palm, and turning his right palm over to form a yang palm, and said: " This is the starting position of Tai Chi.”

As he performed the moves one by one, he called out the names of the moves: holding the bird's tail, single whip, hand gesture, white crane spreading wings, hugging the knees and hooking step, waving the pipa, advancing to move the hammer, like sealing and closing. , cross hands, carrying the tiger back to the mountain...

The disciples watched intently, but except for Xiang Nan, the Six Wudang Heroes all had a little difficulty understanding this boxing technique.

I think this boxing technique is slow and grinding, why can I fight with others? Isn't this a joke? !

But knowing that the master has been developing this Tai Chi skill for more than ten years, I expected it to be something extraordinary. The reason why I couldn't understand it was not Master's fault, but that I was stupid and didn't understand it, so I still looked at it seriously.

About a meal time, Zhang Sanfeng stepped up to explore the horse, stepped up to hold the sparrow's tail, used his whip in Tai Chi, and stood there calmly and calmly.

He held his hands in a Tai Chi circle and said: "The secret of this set of boxing skills is 'the spirit is strong, the chest is straight, the back is straight, the waist is loose and the hips are low, the shoulders are low and the elbows are low'." The most taboo thing is to use force. The unity of form and spirit is the essence of this boxing technique."

Then he explained it in detail.

Everyone listened carefully and carefully.

I just feel that this boxing method is extremely mysterious and difficult to fathom, and it is really impossible to understand. Therefore, I just keep Master's teachings in mind and think about them more in detail in the future.

Only Xiang Nan has learned Tai Chi for a long time, so when he listens to it, it reflects and compares with his own understanding, and he immediately gains a lot.

Compared with Zhang Sanfeng's Tai Chi, Xiang Nan's understanding of Tai Chi can be said to have the same goal but different approaches.

Although the moves and changes are slightly different, the core is the same. They all use slowness to fight fast, stillness to stop, leisure to wait for work, and the weak to defeat the strong.

However, Zhang Sanfeng's Tai Chi is more focused on "defense", while Xiang Nan's Tai Chi is more focused on "offense".

This is a difference in personal style, not superior or weak.

…

"Do you all understand?" After Zhang Sanfeng finished teaching, he looked at the disciples and asked.

All the disciples answered one after another.

People like Yu Lianzhou and Zhang Songxi have the most understanding, and they can understand about 50%. However, Song Yuanqiao, Yu Daiyan, Yin Liting, and Mo Shenggu all only understood 30% to 40%.

"That's all. This kind of martial arts has never been done before. It will be difficult for you to learn, so you can slowly understand it." Zhang Sanfeng nodded and said, not surprised.

This martial art emphasizes "stopping with stillness and striking later", which is contrary to the mainstream martial arts philosophy of "strike first and strike later to control others", so it is naturally more difficult to accept it.

That is to say, the martial arts that the Wudang Seven Heroes learned before also imply the martial arts principle of "strike later and stop with stillness", so for the first time I saw them, I was able to understand 30% to 40% of them.

If it were other sects, even the smartest disciples would be considered good if they could understand Tai Chi for the first time.

"Master, the children have understood it," Xiang Nan said.

"Oh, okay, okay, in that case, let's join hands." Upon hearing this, Zhang Sanfeng smiled with satisfaction.

Xiang Nan nodded and came to Zhang Sanfeng, "Please give me some advice, Grand Master."

Then he showed his hand gesture and attacked Zhang Sanfeng.

Zhang Sanfeng rotates his hands in circles and moves his fists to block. Each move implies the changes of Tai Chi's yin and yang, which is extremely mysterious.

And Xiang Nan is not simple either. His attainments in Tai Chi have spanned two hundred years. The polishing and understanding of this boxing technique is no less than that of Zhang Sanfeng.

Therefore, it can be said that the two of them are playing against each other and meeting good talents.

Countless exquisite moves and changes were displayed, which dazzled and amazed the Six Heroes of Wudang.

They didn't quite understand how slow-moving boxing techniques like Tai Chi could defeat the enemy.

Now after seeing Xiang Nan and Zhang Sanfeng's demonstrations, I realize how powerful this boxing technique is.

…

After dismantling a thousand moves, Xiang Nan saw that there was still no winner, so he immediately turned softness into strength and changed to [left single whip], [right single whip], [body beat], [elbow bottom beat], [ Fight against the enemy with powerful moves such as "Hand-covering and Hammering", "Advanced Planting and Hammering", and "Advanced Moving and Blocking Hammering".

He threw out his two long arms, like steel whips and sledgehammers, and attacked Zhang Sanfeng's weak points.

Xiang Nan has practiced the Sakyamuni Elephant Throwing Kung Fu, the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Kung Fu, and the Thirteen Taibao's horizontal practice of the Golden Bell Cover. The strength of one arm can reach a thousand tons, which is unparalleled in the world.

In addition, he is proficient in the Dugu Nine Swords, and has reached the highest level of [no move to win with all moves]. And as long as Zhang Sanfeng makes a move, he will be able to see the flaws.

Therefore, under his fierce attack, Zhang Sanfeng was at a disadvantage for a while.

But after all, Zhang Sanfeng is an unparalleled martial arts wizard, and he once traveled across the world and wiped out evil spirits. He has extremely rich practical experience and adaptability.

Under Xiang Nan's heavy pressure, he was actually forced to use more moves, more changes, and more secrets of Tai Chi. So the situation was quickly restored.

As a result, Zhang Sanfeng shouted with joy. He hadn't played so much in a long time.

When the Six Heroes of Wudang saw this, they basically couldn't understand it.

Because the moves they used before were the seventy-four Tai Chi moves that Zhang Sanfeng had just taught.

They could barely understand it.

But by the end of the fight, the two of them no longer adhered to any moves, but used them freely and freely. The subtleties of the moves were beyond their understanding, and each move was enough for them to ponder for a long time.

After fighting for three thousand moves, Zhang Sanfeng took the initiative to stop and jumped out of the circle, looking up to the sky and laughing, "Hahahaha... Okay, okay, okay, Qingshu, you are really very enlightened and wise. No wonder you can get the gift from Emperor Zhenwu." .There is a heir to my legacy.”

Among his many disciples, Zhang Cuishan was originally the most enlightened. It was a pity that Zhang Cuishan died young, which made him heartbroken.

Although the other disciples all had their own merits, their understanding was not as good as Zhang Cuishan's. Therefore, he was very worried about whether the martial arts he created could be passed down a hundred years later.

But now he's not worried.

Xiang Nan learned Tai Chi after only listening to it once, and he could apply it freely and develop so many moves and changes.

If he hadn't just created this martial art, he would have suspected that Xiang Nan had already learned Tai Chi and had practiced it secretly for decades.

With such an understanding, which is higher than that of Zhang Cuishan, he is naturally better able to inherit his mantle.

"Thank you, Master Tai, for the compliment." Xiang Nan bowed.
