September 29, 1974, was a Sunday, and the following day coincided with the Mid-Autumn Festival. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info so on this day, as the two disciples of Yuye held the "teacher examination", it was very suitable.

As for the location of the wrestling competition, it was "Wrong Leg Feng" who came forward, and through his friendship, set it in the Fayuan Temple in Jiaozi Hutong.

Fayuan Temple can be said to be the oldest and oldest famous temple in the capital. This temple has a history of more than 300 years since its inception.

When the temple was built in the Tang Dynasty, it was called "Minzhong Temple" by Wu Zetian. Song Qinzong Zhao Huan was captured by the Jin soldiers and went north, and was imprisoned here. It was not until the Qing Dynasty that the temple was rebuilt, and it was changed to the current name of "Fayuan Temple".

Choosing the location here is actually a thoughtful consideration of "Wrong Leg Feng", not just for the convenience of having acquaintances in charge of watching the temple, but also because of the other two benefits.

First of all, the geographical location of Fayuan Temple is particularly good. Because from the perspective of the whole city, it seems relatively remote, but it is the center of the Xuanwu District.

It is not only close to Yuye's residence, it is surrounded by a flyover to the east, Niujie to the west, Xuanwu Gate to the north, and a white paper workshop to the south. The most popular places for wrestling enthusiasts like these in the southern city are all around it, so there's no more convenient place for most people than to meet here.

Secondly, the environment here is also very quiet, and there is a courtyard wall to cover it, so the privacy is very good. In the temple, no matter how much you roll and toss, it will not cause ordinary people to watch and cause unnecessary trouble.

You must know that although the overall atmosphere of society has been relaxed a lot, the dictatorship organs are still very sensitive to gatherings with too many people. If it really attracts their attention, if you don't get it right, they will put a political hat on you and scrutinize you.

But then again, if it hadn't caught up with the "movement", the "Four Olds" had been smashed to pieces, and the monks of the entire Fayuan Temple had been driven away, making this a place that was sealed and locked. Where did they have the blessing to be able to put their wrestling in such a spacious and suitable place, and in such a solemn and solemn place?

Therefore, there are disadvantages and advantages to everything, and the problem can never be too absolute.

Come on, let's be serious.

The date is set, the location is set, then the next step is to pick up the venue.

How?

Hey, Fayuan Temple has really been abandoned for a long time. Except for the pines and cypresses, which are still lush and green, the rest of the temple is full of ruins and broken tiles, which have long been ruined. If you want to actually hold a wrestling competition here, you have to do some simple arrangements in advance.

So the master and apprentice of "Wrong Leg Feng" teamed up with a friend who guarded the door, found a trolley, started three days in advance, and used loess to build a loess platform with two zhang square in front of the Tianwang Palace.

In addition, the gatekeeper also found several large red flags that had been abandoned by the Red Guards in the temple and planted them in the lawns on both sides of the platform. It adds a bit of a lively and festive scene to the originally deserted and dilapidated Heavenly King Palace, and it looks like that.

Don't be too shabby, to be honest, this specification is really not low.

Because this loess platform is actually the "wrestling altar" that is regarded as a holy place by all wrestlers in old age. According to the old rules in the wrestling industry, generally after fighting, they have to be in the wrestling pit, and only serious competitions are allowed to go to the altar.

And just like that, everything was ready for the arena. In the wrestling in the capital, as long as you live nearby, you can be regarded as a person with a head and a face, and most of them have received the post from "Wrong Leg Feng" in advance. So on September 29th, from early in the morning, people came one after another.

By mid-morning, a small number of people had gathered in Fayuan Temple. The older ones have gray sideburns, and the younger ones are in their twenties.

If you want to talk about the background of these people, they can actually be roughly divided into two factions.

Eighty percent of them are Nancheng wrestlers who have been taught the art of wrestling by the Tianqiao Shuangjie "Shen San" and "Bao San", or who have crossed the ground and begged for a living with them.

The other group with a smaller number of people is the three "treasures" of Niujie in the southern city of Weizhen (that is, the "wrestling" Shandebao, the "falling to death" Yin Guibao, and the "winning in defeat" Tang Bao, all three of whom are good at fighting the camp and fighting the household), and the "Qian Catcher" who can wrestle with the yak and the "Iron Hook" Qian San, the disciples and grandchildren of these well-known wrestlers of the Hui nationality.

You must know that the Niujie area, as a gathering place for Hui people, flourished far earlier than the Tianqiao area. Even at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, it still maintained the habit of practicing wrestling in the four wrestling fields in the southeast and northwest all the year round.

Like the West Field, it is located in the area of Laojundi or Shuangjing. The east field is located in the godson alley. South field, located in Wanshou West Palace. The north field is located at the west gate of Guang'an Market.

In addition to the east and west fields, which are independent and only allow Muslims to participate, the rest of the south and north fields are open to anyone, and anyone can participate.

Therefore, in addition to the Hui people, there are also Manchu and Han wrestlers in the nearby and Tianqiao areas. They make progress together through competition. After a long time, they have accumulated a deeper friendship with each other.

So no matter where you say it, "Wrong Leg Feng" has one kind of friendship or another with anyone who comes today, plus there are many people who have indeed not seen each other for many years, and they seem more affectionate to each other.

For this reason, he specially waited at the gate of the monastery to come and see a salute. It doesn't matter who it is, he solemnly gives people a look and thanks for giving him this face.

Yu Ye and these people are not in the same vein, and they have been isolated from wrestling for a long time, so naturally they have no acquaintances. He was waited on by Coach Ma and rested on a chair behind the mountain gate to drink tea. However, he looked at the radiant appearance of "Wrong-legged Feng" from behind the mountain gate, and he was not immune to his emotional influence.

Suddenly, he suddenly saw the scene of his wrestling gym when he was young.

It was a lively day as well.

Wan Baye, Rui Wuye, Urgon, Shandebao, Figure 3...... There are also Liu Boqian and Li Yaochen, these good friends and big brothers who know each other are here.

Everyone also clasped their fists like this, said auspicious words, and smiled at him......

Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan, the two children, they are neither busy with the "wrong leg Feng" now, nor can they feel the sadness of Yuye. But they weren't idle, everyone was holding a yellow rice fried cake with bean paste filling in their mouths, watching the excitement in front of the Heavenly King's Palace.

The wrestling artists who dare to love this old flyover can't see each other for a long time, and once they get together, their emotions are a little unbearable.

They either found familiar veterans, and according to the routine of the year, they fell into the "flower wrestling" (jargon, fake wrestling with performance nature) known as "martial arts cross talk". Or practice sticks and stone locks to show that you are still old and strong.

There was even an old man who was over the age of six, and he also put in the middle flag and played "bang" and "bang".

For a while, a move is "the overlord lifts the ding", a moment is a style of "Erlang Danshan", and for a while, the banner falls behind his back, and there is a "Su Qin back sword". After a while, he caught it with his jaw, and there was a "Taigong fishing". The huge middle flag in his hand is like a clothes pole at home, and he can play with it without saying anything.

And in front of the entire Tianwang Palace, it is also like turning back time, showing a prosperous old scene of the old Tianqiao wrestling field in the early years of the Republic of China. made Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan's heads turn left and right like rattles, and they didn't know where to look.

As for the fried cakes in the mouths of these two children, Yu Ye specially took them to Niu Street to buy them in the morning.

This was originally the old man's love for his disciples, so that they could have enough heat to deal with their opponents when they went to the wrestling altar. But what is infuriating is that Hong Yanwu, this kid, not only has a trace of gratitude to his teacher, but is not greedy enough.

This kid actually rolled his big eyes when he bought fried cakes, and shamelessly complained that Yuye slammed the door. said bluntly, "Less, I have to eat, one is not enough to stuff my teeth".

As a result, his such honest "virtue" not only exchanged for Yu Ye's leg lift on the spot. also spared an extra scolding from the old man.

"Stinky boy, do you still have merit? Stinky beauty! You are going to lose my person today, how do I let you eat, how do you spit it out for me!"
