1170. Mutual reckoning
There were sixty or seventy people in the hall, both men and women, but men were more than three-quarters of them.
These people don't look young, the youngest should be in their forties, and the old ones are even seventy or eighty years old, but everyone looks full of energy, even those who are old, they are all in good spirits, sitting there with their waists straight, like a bell like a pine.
If Nie Wei was there, he would be surprised to find that most of these people he knew.
At the beginning, accompanied Wang Jiawei to collect materials, Nie Wei traveled almost all over China, covering the two sides of the Taiwan Strait, visiting hundreds of famous martial artists, and the people Nie Wei was familiar with, basically all of whom he knew at that time.
"Lao Liu, it's not good for us to force Xiao Nie like this. Holding the mobile phone, an old man with crane hair and a childish face like an immortal and still wearing a Taoist robe said to an old man beside him with a somewhat blushing face.
"Wang Daochang, there is no way. Liu Lao smiled bitterly and replied: "If I am thirty years old now, I will never force Mr. Xiao Nie, but after all, I am seventy and six, and there are still these people here, the younger ones, the skills have not been learned well, and the ones who have the skills are all older, and they are afraid that they will be less strong." ”
Wang Daochang was speechless, and he also smiled bitterly and stopped talking.
Fist is afraid of being less strong, this is a wise saying spread in Chinese martial arts, when people reach age, their qi and blood will decay, and their muscles will atrophy, regardless of strength, speed, and reaction will decline, and it is almost impossible for the kind of person in martial arts to become older and more demonic in reality.
Normal martial artists, after the age of forty, will begin to go downhill, even if they practice internal boxing and pay attention to health, when they reach a certain age, they want to go to the ring and are powerless, so there are many martial arts masters here, but they have no realm, but their strength has long been one hundred, and it is okay to deal with ordinary people, but to deal with the world's top martial artists like McGregor is to deliver food.
So if you really want to fight in the ring, you will return it to the young people.
When Xiaodong attacked Huaxia Kung Fu in China before, these people didn't think of Nie Wei yet, but as the news of McGregor's challenge to Nie Wei spread back to China, they finally saw the hope of being able to help 'Kung Fu' get rid of its shame.
Needless to say, Nie Wei's strength, the young grandmaster, who was born in eighty-four years, is just twenty-nine years old this year, and is in the prime of life, the most golden age of a martial artist, his physical fitness has reached its peak, and his psychological quality has also tended to mature and stable.
Let Nie Wei go to the ring, and they will all rest assured.
The only thing that needs to be taken into account is Nie Wei's refusal, originally what they expected was that Nie Wei would agree to come down, but after paying attention to it for a long time, Nie Wei did not respond to McGregor's provocations, so they were in a hurry.
This group of old people almost put the hope of saving Kung Fu on Nie Wei, feeling that he is the most capable of proving that Kung Fu can fight, as long as Nie Wei defeats the world-recognized top fighter McGregor, then it naturally proves that the actual combat ability of Kung Fu is beyond doubt.
So seeing that Nie Wei didn't mean to agree, several of the old-timers pondered a way.
That is to coerce Nie Wei with favors.
In life, the most expensive word is nothing more than a 'love'.
Like parental affection, this is something that you can't pay off for a lifetime no matter how much money you make, friendship and love are the same, and human affection is naturally the same.
It was precisely because of the guidance of these famous masters that Nie Wei was able to adopt the strengths of a hundred schools of thought, and finally found his own path as a grandmaster.
, so he owes these people some favors to more or less these people, and these old people just hope to use these favors to force Nie Wei to go to the ring.
So this group of people contacted everywhere, and today's meeting was born.
On the other side, Nie Wei hung up the phone again, with a hint of exhaustion and helplessness in his expression, because it was difficult to return the favor.
If it was just a senior's please, Nie Wei would be able to shirk it, but since just now, Nie Wei has answered almost twenty phone calls, and in every phone call, there is an old man who once instructed him sincerely and even humbly asked Nie Wei to fight McGregor.
Nie Wei knew that this group of old-timers was using favors to coerce themselves into standing in the ring.
One phone call after another, Nie Wei unconsciously answered more than ten calls, and his expression remained very indifferent, until a familiar number called, Nie Wei frowned for the first time.
"Old Man Cheng, are you also here to persuade me to face that McGregor?" the phone was connected, and Nie Wei took the initiative to ask for the first time.
"Nie Wei, I was calling you not to listen to those old bastards!" The old man on the phone scolded angrily: "Those bastards who gave birth to sons and didn't have XX, they didn't dare to go into the ring, so they told you to rush forward, Nie Wei, you didn't hear what they said, I'll clean them up with those old things!"
Old Man Cheng's words made a trace of warmth flash in Nie Wei's originally slightly cold eyes.
"Old man, don't be angry......"
"How can I not be angry, Wang Tiezhou's bastard actually called me and encouraged me to go to the ring, but fortunately he made this call, otherwise I wouldn't know that those old things were persecuting you so much behind their backs, and what kind of favors they had with these people, they were harming you. ”
"They keep saying to me that for the sake of kung fu and the maintenance of traditional Chinese culture, fart! These selfish guys are just for themselves, a group of selfish bastards, it's not because the kung fu is over, they will be finished, and the rice bowl will be smashed when the time comes, but why do they want you to have an irrelevant young man to help maintain it?"
"Xiao Nie, listen to grandpa's words, just concentrate on making movies, as for the ring, who you love will go to whom, as for them to call you again, you just ask them to call me, you are embarrassed to refuse them, I come, anyway, my old face is thick enough, I will help you bear those favors." ”
Speaking of this, Nie Wei heard Old Man Cheng sigh and said in a sad tone: "Nie Wei, the decline of kung fu is because of the self-cherishing of each family, and it is the survival of the fittest, these are not the victory of a battle that can be reversed, and the rise and fall of kung fu should not fall on the shoulders of one of your children, let you bear the mistakes made by our older generation." ”
Nie Wei's expression flashed with a hint of emotion, and he could hear that this was what Old Man Cheng was saying.
As Mr. Cheng said, the decline of kung fu, on the one hand, hot weapons gradually replaced cold weapons, no matter how high kung fu is, one shot will knock it down, which makes many people feel that practicing martial arts has become meaningless.
And more importantly, the broom of each faction cherishes itself.
For thousands of years in China, how many brilliant cultures have been cut off because of these 'four words'.
Although Mr. Cheng said it clearly, the thick sadness in his words was obviously very uncomfortable, sometimes some things are difficult to be confused, and the more people who understand, the more likely they are to be hurt.
"Old man, you are an understanding person, you said that those people are selfish to coerce me, but if I retreat at this time, isn't it also selfish? So this battle, I think about it, I will stand in the ring and help Kung Fu become famous!"
"Nie Wei !!" Old Man Cheng shouted anxiously, wanting to stop Nie Wei from talking, but was interrupted by Nie Wei as soon as he spoke.
"You can listen to me first, let me go into the ring, but I have a request, I hope you will convey it to those people for me, old man, if they agree to my terms, I will be willing to face McGregor. ”
"My conditions are very simple, I want their inheritance, not that simple routine, but a real inheritance!" Nie Wei said his conditions with burning eyes.
Didn't they coerce themselves with the righteousness of kung fu, then they are not polite, if you can't carry forward kung fu, just leave it to me.
With such a belief, Nie Wei said this condition, which made the old man Cheng on the other end of the phone open his mouth wide in surprise.
Old Man Cheng's first reaction when he heard this condition was Nie Wei's big appetite.
You must know that the so-called inheritance is definitely the core secret of all sects, and they all say that ten thousand books are falsely passed on, and one sentence is true, and he understands that what Nie Wei wants is not ten thousand books, but that sentence.
But after being surprised, Old Man Cheng also began to think about the pros and cons of such a transaction for Nie Wei.
"Nie Wei, you and the old man have a thorough understanding, do you think you can really beat that McGregor?" Old man Cheng immediately asked, this is the most critical point, if Nie Wei is not sure, then this matter will be stopped, but if Nie Wei is sure......
Hearing Old Man Cheng's question, Nie Wei smiled confidently and replied, "I told others that I was sixty percent sure, and that was based on the possibility that both sides were engrossed in the battle. ”
"It's a pity that McGregor obviously despises me, after all, he is a professional player, and I am just an ordinary person on the surface, maybe in his eyes I am just a kung fu enthusiast with good physical fitness, like my other professions, director, businessman, actor, no matter which identity has nothing to do with martial arts, this is the reason why he despises me, if he fights me with such a mentality, I am 100% sure to defeat him!"
Nie Wei's words were generous and powerful, full of confidence.
If, as he expected, McGregor fought with contempt, Nie Wei would clearly tell him with his fists what would happen if he despised a grandmaster.
"Alright, then we'll get ready. Old Man Cheng thought for a moment and said, "First of all, those old guys who have guarded things all their lives will definitely not be willing to hand them over to us easily, so if they are unwilling, then you can just take advantage of the situation to refuse their request." ”
"But if they agree, then I will help you go through, and I will definitely scrape their old bottoms for you, and you will seriously prepare for the ring, and then use your efforts to teach that arrogant foreigner a good lesson. ”
"Don't worry, Old Man Cheng. ”
After Nie Wei hung up the phone, he called the staff and told the crew to prepare for filming.
And after Old Man Cheng talked to Nie Wei on the phone, he immediately called the old guys, and then told them all of Nie Wei's requests.
"The lion opens his mouth!"
"It's unreasonable to be young!"
"Lao Cheng, is it because my ears are bad or your mouth is scooping, do you dare to mention such a request?"
Sure enough, as Old Man Cheng expected, when they heard Nie Wei's request, these people were so excited that they all thought that Nie Wei and him were crazy to make such a request.
"Lao Cheng, this is impossible, I don't know why Xiao Nie made such a request, but you are also a martial arts person, don't you understand how important the inheritance of each sect and sect is?"
"Of course, if he really wants to learn the kung fu of our sect, it's not impossible, as long as he is willing to apprentice, I will teach him!" replied Wu Lao, who called Nie Wei at the beginning.
"Old Wu, you want to be beautiful. "Old man Cheng can't wait to spit on this old Wu in front of him, this guy still listens to calculations, and wants Nie Wei to apprentice, and he doesn't look at his own appearance, is it worthy?
"Mr. Nie, that is a figure in the realm of grandmasters, in ancient times, it was an existence that was rampant in the martial arts, where to go is not respected, you old Wu is a half-hanger, and you still want a grandmaster to apprentice, you want to be beautiful. Lao Cheng not only thought in his heart, but also said very politely.
Lao Wu was blushed by Lao Cheng's words, but quickly retorted in a hurry: "I... I didn't say that I would be a teacher, I could accept apprentices on behalf of my teacher, my master Lingyun Daoist is always qualified. ”
Lao Wu's master, Lingyun Daochang, was a martial arts master during the Republic of China, although he was not as famous as Master Huo of Lost Trace Fist, Master Sun of Tiger Head Shaobao, and Mr. Li of the Divine Spear, but in the martial arts at that time, he was also respected by many people, and many people rumored that Lingyun's martial arts cultivation had also entered the realm.
If Lao Wu is a substitute teacher and an apprentice, it is indeed qualified, but what is the use of just qualifying, Nie Wei is definitely unwilling.
"What's the matter, if you want the horse to run fast and not let the horse eat enough, how can there be such a beautiful thing in the world, I will make it clear, Nie Wei needs your inheritance to study, he needs to make progress, in order to be able to defeat the opponent with a greater chance. ”
"What Nie Wei wants to do, isn't it just that you keep saying that it is for Chinese culture and Chinese kung fu, what's the matter, when it's your turn to pay, you will shrink your head?
"Anyway, I'm here anyway, think about it, as long as you agree, I'll immediately persuade Nie Wei to fight, if you don't agree, then squint honestly, don't always call and harass people Nie Wei, he is millions per minute, are you delayed?"
Old man Cheng vented, refreshed, and hung up the phone decisively.
But Wu Lao, who answered the phone on the other side, had a ruddy face that was already as black as ink at the moment, and the whole person was like a puffer fish holding his breath, as if he was about to explode in the next second.
The phone was turned on on speakerphone, and everyone at the scene heard it clearly, and everyone understood that now the 'ball' was kicked back to them by this Cheng old monster.
At present, everyone is stuck in a multiple-choice question, should this inheritance be handed over or not?
