Chapter 4 Learning and Art II

Xiao Siqi's hunting range is not large, just a few hundred meters around the top of the mountain, which is also a hard and fast rule. Although he has been practicing martial arts for more than three years, after all, he is not very old, and he is also in the foundation building period, and it is very dangerous if he really encounters large animals such as wolves, tigers, and leopards.

Although there have been near the end of the mountain, there are still in the primeval forest a little farther away, but the section on the top of the mountain is very steep, and it is generally difficult to come up.

Walking slowly in the forest, there are hares in front of him from time to time to quickly snatch away, but the various birds on the branches, pheasants or something are not very reactive, thinking that there is so high from the ground, there will be no danger, Xiao Siqi saw that there was a prey, put the small bow from the back to his hand, and then took out an arrow from the quiver on the side, this set of things was bought from the hunters under the mountain, afraid that he would not be fun alone in the mountains every day, he could not only practice his martial arts, but also relieve his boredom.

At this time, there was a rabbit by a tree in front of him who saw someone approaching, looking around to see which direction to run, saying that it was fast, and it was slow, only to see Xiao Siqi stretching his bow, pulling it up, and the bow and arrow went out with a "whoosh", and an arrow was in the middle. I ran over and saw that the rabbit was dead

"Today's dinner has been over!" pulled out the shaft of the arrow, put the quiver back, grabbed the rabbit, and began to walk back, shooting another pheasant on the way. When I walked to the middle of the hill, I found that there was a light in the cave, and the master came back, Xiao Siqi thought to himself.

"Master, master," Xiao Siqi shouted as he ran over.

A figure came out of the cave, not who the wild monk was!

"Apprentice, have you done your homework today?" asked Lifan

"It's done, Luohan Boxing is now very proficient, master, when will you teach me new kung fu?"

"I just want to learn kung fu, have you copied the scriptures, how about the acupuncture point drawings, and being able to write and martial arts is the talent of a general," Fan scolded with a smile.

"It's done, too. As he spoke, he took out from his room the scriptures and acupuncture points that he had copied in the afternoon

"Okay, then as a teacher, I will test you, and first go to the outside to play a set of Luohan boxing. ”

Came to Pingzhong

Xiao Siqi stood in the middle, posing the starting style of Luohan Boxing, to Hun Yuan one breath, cactus pushing clouds, three plates landing, two hands of the sky, cow flowers and leaves, looking ahead, fairy ape picking fruits, stealing the sky and changing the sun, spirit macaly to protect the brain, pushing the window to find the moon, collecting claws and hiding fronts, tiger pounces, returning to the wind and water, pouring the sea and draining the mountains, double peaks inserting clouds, black tigers gathering hearts, alone through the three Taiwans, and cold leaving the lone step to collect the work. After practicing one move after another, he didn't pant and didn't move, as if he hadn't moved at all just now. I can see where the old people are pleased. It's rare to be able to practice to such a point in three years.

"Master, how do you see my practice?"

"Good, good, good," Fan laughed.

"Then you can teach me something else, right?"

"In vain, don't underestimate this Luohan Boxing. ”

"Shiyan boxing, Wudang is the inner family, and Shaolin is the outer family. And Luohan Boxing is really a Shaolin family, and it is a secret for the inner family. Luohan boxing was created from the Tianzhu monk Dharma, the ancient original Luohan boxing is different from the so-called Luohan boxing today, which is the orthodox patriarchy of the Shaolin divisions. And what you're practicing now is the primordial Luo boxing. ”

"I see, no wonder it's so difficult for me to practice, it seems that when I practice Luohan Boxing, my "Yijin Yiyuan Gong" will also run slowly and automatically, and slowly stop with the speed of the boxing"

"Oh, you have already practiced to the realm of the six veins of qi? good, not bad" Fan was secretly happy in his heart, thinking that it would take him six years to practice to the realm of the six veins of qi, this kid has practiced to this point in more than three years, and his roots and bones are really extraordinary.

"Master, what are the six veins of qi?" asked Xiao Siqi

"This starts with the history of Luohan boxing. Luohan boxing, created from the Tianzhu monk Dharma. Liang Datong Ding Wei, Bodhidharma barefoot into the Central Plains, in the Shaolin Temple to give a speech on Zen Buddhism, see all the monks with yellow muscles and thin muscles, lack of energy, even malaise and sleep, sick and dying, and said: "Although the monks do not focus on the body, they are not allowed to understand the sex, so that the soul is separated." If you want to understand nature, you must first strengthen your body, then your body is strong and your soul is easy to understand. So he created eighteen hands of Arhat Boxing, and gave it to the monks, and after only a few months of cultivation, they were all full of energy, and this is the beginning. At that time, the so-called Luohan boxers only had these eighteen hands, and there was no name of innate and acquired. When it came to the Jin Yuan, Bai Yufeng shaved into the mountain, and obtained these eighteen hands, which was a fusion of changes, elaborating on the subtlety, increasing to one hundred and eighteen hands, in order to match the number of one hundred and eighteen Arhats. As for the eighteen hands passed down by Bodhidharma, it is called the eighteen hands of the first generation of the Congenital Arhat Boxing, and the one hundred and eighteen hands of the Bai family are called the acquired Arhat Boxing.

The innate and acquired Luohan boxing, that is, the formation and development, so in the later period, all the Luohan boxing formed by the Bodhidharma eighteen hands or the Bai's one hundred and eighteen hands as the patriarchal method can be called the acquired Luohan boxing.

The congenital Arhat boxing, that is, the eighteen hands at its beginning, is the orthodox patriarchal method of the Shaolin masters, the eighteen hands of the law, the essence of the collection, without losing the authenticity. Since the birth of Bodhidharma Zen Master, many famous masters have inherited and played, and its theoretical basis is the Zen method passed on by the first ancestor Bodhidharma: "Do not set up words, do not teach outside the teaching, directly point to the hearts of the people, and become a Buddha by seeing nature." In its practice, it has always embodied the Zen spirit of "no thought for the sect", focusing on breathing and breathing, qi line six veins, guarding the heart and dwelling fate, and stopping the heart from being chaotic, so it is also called "Shaolin Heart Law Arhat Boxing" Congenital Arhat Boxing Eighteen Hands, each single potential is the pile gong of refining qi, which can make the essence and divine power sufficient, and can make the lower plate stable, both inside and outside, both god and shape, both static and moving, and easy tendon and marrow washing kung fu is everywhere. ”

"Then what I'm practicing now should be the Innate Arhat Boxing, right?"

"Yes, this innate Arhat boxing was also discovered by my master on the stone wall of an unknown cave in the mountains behind the Shaolin Temple, passed on to me, and later wanted to pass it on to other disciples of the Shaolin Temple, but because they were used to the acquired Arhat boxing, they thought that the innate Arhat boxing of the master, that is, your ancestor, was fake, so they gave up. ”

"Then what is the day after tomorrow when the Luohan fist falls?"

"Although the day after tomorrow Luohan boxing was supplemented by Bai Yufeng, but then Hong Yun Guanyi, the single cane monk Li Jingyuan, are all Shaolin Jian, each is the right door, to increase or decrease, although it is still at the rate of one hundred and eighteen, the law has changed. At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, although Shaolin was extremely prosperous, it was extinguished in an instant. Since then, not only has the eighteen hands passed down by Bodhidharma have never been passed on, but the one hundred and eighteen hands of Bai Yufeng have also been unobserved. As for the so-called Arhat boxers of today's people, there are different factions from the north and the south, and the preacher is different, and there is no sect to follow. He sighed.

"It turns out that the Luohan boxing I practiced still has such a big origin, and it was created by Zen Master Bodhidharma!" Xiao Siqi was very surprised

"So in the future, when you meet the Shaolin people, if you have the opportunity, pass on this set of Innate Arhat Boxing to them, which can be regarded as my reward for not returning to Shaolin for decades."

"Yes, master, the apprentice will definitely have a chance," Xiao Siqi should be.

"Let's go, go back to the house and see how your cultural homework is doing?"
