Chapter 105: Ancient Tai Chi Quan Clarifies Doubts

Li Yan was a little helpless, he really didn't learn any real kung fu of Tai Chi pushers, his father was not very willing to teach him when he was young, and he was afraid that he would go out to fight and cause trouble.

Part of the comprehension of Tai Chi Tui is from the "Complete Book of Tai Chi", and part of it is that when his father is happy, he will have a hand with Li Yan, and then Li Yan can try his best to figure out the most important listening power of Tai Chi Tui from the actual experience.

"You are not afraid of being misled by me, I will tell you based on my own experience, first of all, you must be able to set your feet. After Li Yan finished speaking, he pulled Yuan Chengshi's left hand on the elbow of his right arm, and pulled Yuan Chengshi's right hand on the wrist of his right hand.

"Remember that you can't use to grab when pushing your hands, your palms are naturally open and you touch the two joints of each other's arms with your palms leaning down, try to keep your hands against each other's single hands, your hands and elbows are hanging down, your arms can not be attached to your body, your armpits must be empty, and your chest and back are pulled, these essentials are taught to you when you are teaching the routine, you must always remember. ”

"There is also the change of center of gravity, do not let the center of gravity fall between the legs, only on one of your legs, this leg is solid, the other leg can only be empty. Each hand is only one side of the body, and the wrist line of the left hand should not cross the central axis of your body, and of course the right hand is the same. The hand should be bent at all times, not stiff and straight. ”

"You have to keep yourself in an arc at all times, and every position is an arc, so that the force of the other party in any direction will be drawn out by your arc. Once you've done your job, you can feel the opponent's strength, direction, and the beginning, middle, and end of the force by touching your opponent's hands. When you can feel these details and changes in the other party's power, the other person is in your control. ”

"Master, you said less, I remember so much. Besides, by the time I'm ready, others will have already finished beating me. ”

"I haven't finished talking about it yet, these essentials will form a habit after you practice more, and after becoming a habit, it will react faster than your own thinking, which is an instinctive reaction. When others hit you, it is estimated that your thinking does not react, but your instinct has already helped you solve a lot. ”

"yes, instinct is the fastest, that's science. Lin Qianqian said.

"Do you remember? I've almost forgotten what I've heard. Yuan Chengshi said.

"That's your stupidity. You see. Lin Qianqian shook her phone, and it turned out that Lin Qianqian directly recorded everything Li Yan just said.

"You don't need to record it, it's elaborated in the two books I recommend to you. Li Yan laughed.

"What is written in the book, how can the master directly understand what he said. Lin Qianqian said.

"If you happen to be two people practicing together, you can practice pushing, and Tai Chi is the best way to practice with more than two people. It is difficult to have a chance to practice alone, after you have practiced the routine, you can practice pushing hands with each other, so that the progress will be very fast. ”

"I'm sure I can't push him. Lin Qianqian pointed at Yuan Chengshi and said.

"Tai Chi pusher is not about whose strength is great, if it relies on great strength, it is not Tai Chi pusher, it is a top cow. I don't know if you've ever played a game where two people stand one meter away and then both push each other or pretend to push each other, but you are not allowed to push each other's bodies, to see who can push each other down?"

"Played, I played. Yuan Chengshi and Lin Qianqian said successively.

"This kind of game has a bit of a taste of mobilizing the other party's consciousness to judge, if the palm force of two people is on the right, the greater force will push out the small force; but if one party pushes out hard and fails, he will definitely not be able to stand, and he will fall by himself, regardless of whether he has great or small strength. ”

"That's right. ”

"Tai Chi pushers are absolutely not allowed to top the bull, which is the practical application of Tai Chi Eight Strengths. Depending on which state the opponent's strength is in, you can take the introduction of the miss, or the use of force to play and so on. ”

"Master, what you said is too profound, or you should demonstrate it. Yuan Chengshi said.

"Okay, you push me now, remember not to push too hard. Li Yan's hands naturally drooped at his sides.

Yuan Chengshi said: "Master, I pushed it." As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Chengshi pushed over.

"Ahh The sound behind it was made when Yuan Chengshi fell face down on the bed.

"Master, I didn't see it clearly, let's do it again. Yuan Chengshi stood up and said.

"Lin Qianqian, have you seen it?" asked Li Yan.

"Master, I saw it, it looks so simple. Lin Qianqian said.

"You give it a try, and now you don't know how to listen, you estimate that his hand is going to push on you, so you draw an arc clockwise from the bottom left of your hands, and each arm should be rotated as in the practice of the routine, so that you can extend the path of the opponent when it touches your arm, and at the same time your center is on the left leg, and the body turns to the right. ”

Lin Qianqian taught Li Yan by example and gestured.

"Remember to keep your hands at a distance from your body, don't stretch out too much to touch the arm pushed by the other person, and don't retreat to avoid the pushed arm, you just take care of yourself to complete your movements, the upper body is upright, do not lean back, do a good job of pulling the back with your chest, leaning slightly in front of you, so that the force can be transmitted smoothly from your heel through the waist to your hand, and your consciousness should be placed in front of your hands, that is, in front of the position where you may be subjected to external force. ”

"Come on, you do it first, I'll see. Li Yan instructed Lin Qianqian's movements in detail, and after more than a dozen times, he said to Yuan Chengshi: "Come and try." You can only push straight this time, slightly to your left, but not to the right. ”

Then he said to Lin Qianqian, you just need to grasp the timing and do what you just did.

Yuan Chengshi didn't believe that Lin Qianqian could throw herself on the bed opposite like Li Yan, and saw that Li Yan was protecting her, so she wanted to push Lin Qianqian directly to the bed behind her, and this time the force was even greater than pushing Li Yan just now.

As a result, Lin Qianqian screamed and covered her shoulders.

Yuan Chengshi then screamed loudly, Yuan Chengshi was thrown to the edge of the other side of the bed, Yuan Chengshi was on the bed with his head down, still not controlled, and slid down to the other side of the bed, Yuan Chengshi supported it with his right hand.

"Master, it's really so powerful. I felt like I was flying out, and I couldn't stop it. Yuan Chengshi got up and said.

"Lin Qianqian saw that you pushed over with so much strength, she was scared at first, her body leaned back, and her hand was half a beat slower, and she didn't seal your hand, so your hand still hit her shoulder, but fortunately, I basically finished the action, if I didn't help behind my back, Lin Qianqian would have fallen, but you still fell like this. ”

"You're working so hard, it hurts me to death. Lin Qianqian rubbed her shoulders and said.

Li Yan smiled, and said to Yuan Chengshi again: "The force you used this time was greater than the first time, and all the falls were worse than the first time." If I put a little more force on your back the moment you get thrown out, you'll just fall right into the wall. ”

Yuan Chengshi stood up and rubbed his right arm.

"This is the simplest demonstration of the introduction of failure. You think you're going to bring people down. But through the arc I draw with both hands, the force you push falls on an arc, and by changing the center of gravity and rotation, your strength is like pushing to the edge of a rotating ball, and your strength is deflected. The harder you push and the more you lift your weight, the more you fall out. ”

"Master, if I have a lot of strength, I don't need much strength to push a person, but I can already pile up a person, and even if I push it empty, I won't let myself fall?"

"There are such cases, and this happens when the person who is doing it has not done his best to fight you, or thinks that his strength is much higher than you, so he has not used all his strength at all, and in this case, it is necessary to think of mobilizing him and uprooting him. So I'm going to show you a simple one, you have a front lunge. ”

Yuan Chengshi took a front lunge, Li Yan pushed Yuan Chengshi from the front and back, and then nudged Yuan Chengshi on the left and right sides and said: "Push you back and forth like this, you can be very stable, but I am pushing you on your side now, as long as you push you lightly, you will be unstable, isn't it, this is a small force acting on the cross-section of his power can destroy his power." ”

"That's for sure, I don't have the strength to support my side at all. ”

"Yes, Tai Chi is very scientific and the study of people is very thorough. Tai Chi is not as effective as brute force on a dead thing. But it is precisely because of people's own self-instinct protection and other abilities that Tai Chi can be small and big. ”

"Master, isn't this just to find a weak point?" Yuan Chengshi interjected.

"You listen to me, you may have experienced a situation where when you are walking, you suddenly mistakenly think that there is a step in front of you, and you will have the illusion of stepping into the air, and you will almost fall down. But in fact, there are no steps on the road, but a very flat road, which is the instinctive self-regulation function of the human body, which reacts under your illusion and then falls yourself down. ”

"Well, I've been like this a few times. I broke my foot once. Yuan Chengshi heard this and hurriedly said.

"Another example is not to draw a brick-wide line on flat ground, you walk on it, you will be very stable. But if you raise this line to the height of a brick, it will not be easy for you to walk steadily, and if you continue to raise it, you will not be able to stand steadily, which is the reason for the self-regulation of the human body. Tai Chi is the use of human self-regulation for defense and attack. ”

"Master, that means that Tai Chi can only defend and not attack. ”

"How can there be a boxing technique that can only defend and not attack? China always likes to repair itself, but that does not mean that it will not attack. The attack of Taijiquan is also carried out on the use of the opponent's own adjustment, the first is to mobilize the opponent's center of gravity and force, and then you can use your own force to add to the opponent's force to achieve the maximum degree of heavy damage to the opponent. ”

"Master, can you also demonstrate?" Yuan Chengshi said happily.

"Let's take the example of what you pushed me just now, I used the introduction of failure. This introduction can be passive or active, you see. ”

After Li Yan finished speaking, he pushed Li Yan with his hand, and Yuan Chengshi instinctively used his hands to block Li Yan's hand, but when he first touched Li Yan's hand, he didn't feel a trace of the force of pushing, but felt that his blocking force was in vain.
