Chapter 17 Mantis Fist Cheats
Cheng Yu couldn't help but think of the legend of the treasures of the Golden Mountain that he had heard from adults since he was a child.
It is said that the reason why the ancestors of the Yu family would settle down in Yu Ji Village back then was because they had hired a Nanban to come and see Feng Shui, and Nanban was a master. When the ancestors of the Yu family accompanied the Nanban to the foot of the Golden Mountain, the Nanban suddenly fell to the ground and foamed at the mouth. The ancestors of the Yu family hurriedly rescued the barbarian, and the barbarian woke up and turned around and said: This place is full of gold, but ordinary people can't control it, but they will worry about their lives. The ancestors of the Yu family were shocked and secretly remembered this place.
At night, the two of them slept under a big tree at the bottom of the mountain. In the middle of the night, the ancestor of the Yu family woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the barbarian was no longer beside him, so he got up to look for it, and found that the barbarian was climbing up the mountain under the moonlight. The ancestors of the Yu family secretly followed.
Halfway up the mountain, the brute stopped, looked around, folded his hands, and said something in his mouth. After reciting it three times, he pointed to the mountain with his right hand, and a stone door suddenly opened on the cliff in front of him.
The stone gate opened, and the mountain was immediately shining with golden light, and it turned out that there was a golden bull in the stone cave, which was pulling the gold mill to grind the golden beans. The barbarian laughed excitedly, then rushed in and took off his clothes and pulled the golden beans into his clothes.
Seeing this, the ancestor of the Yu family shouted: "Barbarian, bring out the golden bull first." ”
When the barbarian heard someone shouting, he was so frightened that he trembled, and the golden beans scattered all over the ground. When the golden bull saw it, it mooed and chirped. The stone door slammed shut.
The ancestors of the Yu family were stunned. Secretly glad that he didn't rush into the cave with the brute. Otherwise, the treasure will not be obtained, and the life will be suspended.
Since then, the ancestors of the Yu family have lived under the Duojin Mountain, branched out, and formed today's Yu Ji Village.
This legend is known to everyone in Yu Ji Village. However, later, when the gold mine was developed, people said that the treasures in the mountain had been dug up, and the mountain had become an empty mountain.
Yu Haodong didn't know these strange thoughts in Cheng Yu's mind, he opened the wardrobe, opened the dark compartment on the bottom floor, took out a package made of torn clothes, and carefully untied the pile of torn clothes, revealing a black lacquer box inside.
Yu Haodong put the lacquer box on the table, opened the lacquer box, and inside was a yellowed thread-bound book, and the cover of the book had several vigorous big characters: Tongbei Mantis Boxing Book
It turned out to be a martial arts cheatbook, not a treasure map of my imagination. Cheng Yu felt that he was quite funny.
Yu Haodong gently stroked the book and said to Cheng Yu: "This book is not easy to come by, the person who wrote this book really wrote it with his life." ”
Cheng Yu said: "Uncle, I have heard of Taiji Mantis Boxing, Plum Blossom Mantis Boxing, Liuhe Mantis Boxing, Seven Star Mantis Boxing, etc., but I have never heard of Tongbei Mantis Boxing." ”
Yu Haodong said: "The mantis boxing in the world is all from our ancestors, and the preparation of mantis boxing is your ancestor's secret kung fu, only this one." ”
Cheng Yu asked: "Can this Tongbei Mantis Boxing be related to the Tongbei Boxing you taught me before?"
Yu Haodong said: "Of course it is related, this has a lot to do with it. Yu Haodong looked at Cheng Yu, and then said: "Today, I will tell you the secret of this praying mantis boxing." This secret is no longer known to many people in our Yu Ji Village. ”
Yu Haodong said and took out a piece of brown paper with characters from the bottom of the lacquer box, the paper was already yellowed and a little damaged. But the characters on the paper can still be seen clearly. This person has a helmet and armor, a long beard, and a heroic face, feeling like Guan Gong of the Three Kingdoms.
Yu Haodong hung the portrait on the wall, lit a stick of incense, bowed a few times, and turned around and said: "Cheng Yu, you also come to worship, this is our ancestor." ”
Cheng Yu also stepped forward to worship.
Looking at Cheng Yu's puzzled look, Yu Haodong said: "This is a tragic history, I will tell you now." ”
It happened at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, more than 300 years ago.
Standing on the gold mountain, looking to the southwest, it is a reckless and vast mountain, and the straight-line distance is about 100 kilometers away is the main peak of this series of mountain ranges called Yashan, which is composed of three mountains, respectively called the big tooth, the second tooth, and the third tooth. The three peaks are staggered and very imposing. There is a local folk song: the big tooth is short, the second tooth is high, and the third tooth hugs the waist of the second tooth. It is said that the mountain is very aura, and a feng shui master said that these three teeth, the main local will produce three outstanding people.
There is a village called Tangjiabo dozens of miles away from Asan Mountain, there is a big family surnamed Yu in the village, the ancestors of the big family surnamed Yu made a fortune in opening gold mines in other places, and moved here from the generation of Yu Jinbiao, and it has been three generations. Yu Jinbiao's son Yu Keqing, nicknamed 'Flying on the Grass', was a military general of the Ming Dynasty, in the second year of Chongzhen, he fought against the Houjin army that invaded the hinterland, and was martyred on the battlefield of Baojing. Yu Keqing has a son, Yu Mengxi, whose name is Lewu, because he ranks seventh among the ten people of his generation, so he is called Yu Seven. And Yu Qi's mother, Qi Yanjun, is the granddaughter of Qi Jiguang.
Once upon a time, the old man of the Yu family married the granddaughter of the general Qi Jiguang as his wife, and it can be said that the family business is prosperous, and the people in the village are very envious.
The old lady is especially fond of seven. This Yu Qi has been smart and clever since he was a child, but he doesn't like to read, and he dances and plays with guns and sticks all day long. Mrs. Qi was originally the daughter of the general's family, and she had a family tradition of kung fu, and when she saw that she loved martial arts, she carefully taught the Qi family's general preparation. The ancestor of the Yu family had practiced the Taoist kung fu of the Qiu Chuji school in the Taixu Palace, which was used as a family tradition to strengthen the body and take care of the family. Master Yu also taught the Taoist kung fu of the family to Yu Qi.
Yu Qi got the kung fu of the Qi family and the Yu family, devoted himself to cultivation, and finally fused the two into one furnace to create a unique Yu family preparation boxing. At a young age, he became a top master of martial arts, and Yu Qi became famous in Shandong. Chongzhen for three years, in the seventh examination martial arts. Yu Qi has a heroic style, fighting righteousness and squandering money, and a large number of heroes and heroes have gathered around him. Later, Yu Qi married Li Junmei, the daughter of a large local family, known as the seventh sister-in-law. A few years later, Yu Qi's sons Yu Shouzai and Yu Shoujing were born one after another.
This winter, after a heavy snowfall, Yu Qi opened the door of the courtyard to go to the mountain to practice, and suddenly found that there was a ragged man called Hanako lying outside the door.
Hanako was fifteen or sixteen years old, but it was just caused by freezing and starving, and it was not a big deal. Yu Qi saw that Huazi looked like Zhou Zheng, so he asked him about the situation at home. Hanako is an orphan who has been begging for food since she was a child, and she doesn't even have a name. Yu Qi saw that he was pitiful, so he left him behind and named him Yu Defu. Since then, Yu Defu has become Yu Qi's servant. After a long time, Yu Defu also learned a good kung fu from Yu Qi.
In the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, Qing soldiers landed on the Shandong Peninsula from the sea. Conquer cities, burn, kill and loot, and do all kinds of evil. It was a time of severe drought for many years, natural disasters and military disasters, and the people were struggling to make a living.
Yu Qi never dreamed that the mighty Ming Dynasty would quickly collapse. Faced with the atrocities of the Qing soldiers, Yu Qi chose to fight. He secretly liaised with the anti-Qing forces in the south and gathered forces to prepare for an anti-Qing uprising when the time was right.
When Yu Qi was in full swing to prepare, an unexpected thing happened. This happened in Laiyang City, not far from Tang's house.
The most lively time of the year in Laiyang City is the Baoquan Mountain Temple Fair, when the spring flowers bloom, people come out to see the flowers, enjoy the scenery, worship the Buddha, and pray for a safe year. Yu Qi's younger brother Yu Jiu also accompanied his wife Yi. Yi's family is from a beautiful family, and she is a stunning beauty. didn't want a bully named Song Yibing to fall in love with Yi's at a glance, so he stepped forward to tease. Yu Jiu, who was next to him, saw his virtue, and immediately slapped him with a blue nose and swollen face. Yu Jiu didn't expect that this incident would bring disaster to the Yu family.
This Song Yibing, known as the "Second King of Song". Although he is the nephew of Song Wan, a famous literati in Laiyang City, he is the scum of the family, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling all day long, and doing all kinds of evil. Failed to flirt with Yi's family, but was beaten by Yu Jiu, and the more Song Yibing thought about it, the more angry he became, and he was determined to retaliate.
Song Yibing relied on his father to be an official in the Qing court's military department, and went directly to Beijing to falsely accuse: "Yu Qi built the Jinluan Palace in Qixia, embroidered the dragon robe, and prepared to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty as the emperor." "The Qing court, whose foundation is still unstable, can't hear such news the most, and whether it's true or not, directly sent troops to seal up Yu's home.
The Qing court issued an order to confiscate the Dengzhou Mansion. Dengzhou Prefecture Rush Town will bring 300 soldiers to Tangjiabo Village, where they will be surrounded by seven regiments. At that time, Yu Qi was not at home, and Yu Jiu and Yu Shi were taking a nap. Yu Qi's wife, Li Junmei, hurriedly woke up Yu Jiu and Yu Shi. The two brothers didn't care about 3721, and led their families to beat the Dengzhou military service to a pulp, and fled back to Dengzhou Mansion in embarrassment. For this reason, the Qing court decided to send troops to "conscript" Yu Qi.
After Yu Qi returned home, he knew that he had caused a catastrophe, so he decided to revolt against the Qing Dynasty. Yu Qi said: "The Qing court forced the people to rebel, and the people had to rebel; it is an honor given to me by God to say that I am against the crime of restoring the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty." ”
In order to leave the Yu family behind, Yu Qi secretly arranged for the daughter-in-law of the eldest son Yu Shouzai to lead the three children to Jiaozhou to live in seclusion. After that, he led his family of nearly 100 to Asan, raised the banner of anti-Qing righteousness, and quickly grew to thousands of people. This is the famous uprising in Qiya Mountain in the history of Shandong.
In the seventh year of Shunzhi, Yu Qi led a rebel army of more than 2,000 people, went east out of Yashan, and joined forces with the rebel army of Kunyu Mountain to besiege Ninghai Prefecture. The rebel army was high-spirited, risked death to climb the city, and was unstoppable, and soon broke through Ninghai City, killing Liu Wenqi of Zhizhou, and the prestige was shocked. When the Qing court heard the news, they were terrified and hurriedly ordered Dengzhou to mobilize people from all walks of life to fight with Yu Qi, but they were all beaten by the righteous army and lost their armor and returned defeated. The Qing court had to send heavy troops to encircle and suppress it.
According to records, in the eighteenth year of Shunzhi, the Qing court mobilized the so-called three marshals, including the Jingdong general Ji Xiha, the military department Langzhong Shumulu Tula, and the Shandong governor Zu Zefu, and the heavy troops "will be suppressed" in the seven, and the camp is around Ashan. In the face of a strong enemy, the rebels repeatedly took the initiative to attack, and severely defeated the Qing troops in the area of the cross line and the camp, but in the end, because they were outnumbered, they had to retreat to Asan and swore to defend to the death. In several battles, the rebels were condescending, and the more they fought, the more courageous they became, and the Qing troops were repeatedly defeated and suffered heavy casualties.
In the most tragic battle, the Qing troops attacked a passage in Daya, and the situation was very critical. If this passage is captured, the rebels will have no danger to defend. At the critical moment, Yu Qiqin led the children of the Yu family to line up in front of the passage, and recited Li Bai's chivalrous line:
Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles.
Brushing off the clothes and going away, hiding deep with the name.
The Qing soldiers swarmed up, and Yu Qi waved his big knife and fought bravely, cutting down the Qing soldiers who rushed up one by one off the cliff. He was killed all over the valley, and his blood flowed like a river, and he had been killed for three days and two nights. There is a small village in front of Da Tooth Mountain called "Blood Irrigation Pavilion", which is named after this bloody battle.
In the face of the danger of Asan that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Qing soldiers had no choice but to adopt the tactics of a long siege and a long siege, and surrounded Asan with more than 30,000 horses.
