Chapter 5 Xingjiabao Training Hall
When I finally arrived home in the evening, I found that the house had become much larger and newer, and the garden in front of the door had become wider and larger. Dad said excitedly, "This is the village chief's grandfather commending you for rebuilding the house for us, and the garden has also been expanded." I hugged my fist and bowed, "Thank you, old village chief, grandfather, for your hard work." β
The old village chief touched his beard," We are old, there is no ambition anymore, you young people are the hope and pride of our village, the old people of our village are a reward for you, but also a material incentive for other young people, the treatment you get today, as long as they can work hard, you Xingshi is now considered by everyone to be the most potential young people, in the future to become the best leader in our village, and it is necessary, the ability is great, the responsibility is great, the old people in our village are not high, only not to be bullied, a little field planting, food to eat, clothing, a house to live, can enjoy the joy of familyγ "I have memorized your old words, and I will work hard to realize the original intention of my grandfathers." "I swear and speak with joy.
The old village chief smiled, "This is like a good boy, I like it!" Hahaha's eyes narrowed like wrinkles.
The young children met and said, "Brother Xingshi is back and will take us to play for a few days." The grandfathers and fathers said, "Mancang is blessed, and having a son has a future." Daddy smiled all over her face, and repeatedly said that what you said was too polite.
At noon the next day, under the influence of the old village chief, the whole village men, women and children were active, dozens of tables were set up in my new garden, and a simple light meal entertained the villagers of the whole village.
In the afternoon, I took a break when a few cousins invited me to visit the newly built training hall in the village. I seemed to have a bit of identity in their eyes, and although I didn't care, they didn't think so, and there was a little bit of unnatural expression between words and gestures, consciously or unconsciously.
Cousin Xingyuan Fang Xing Yuan was born to the same mother, and his appearance is not very similar, and the two of them are more individual, and they are much older than me. Xingyun Peak, Xingyun Tian, and Xing Dazhi are all cousins. Our group chatted while walking, and I said, "Brother Yuanfang Yuanbao has a wife and children, so you have to take care of your family, Yunfeng, you young brothers, you must hurry up and practice, you can have a few fights in life, and time waits for no one." β
Brother Yuan Fang sighed and said, "Yes, I used to be greedy for happiness, fishing a day and drying nets for three days, if I could practice well at that time, I can do some decent work when I go out, but now I can't." β
After turning two corners, the training hall arrived, a five-room two-story wooden structure building appeared in front of me, and a plaque was hung on the door.
In the middle of the training ground of several acres of land stood a stone, one foot two feet high, three feet six feet wide, and five feet thick. Echoing with the training hall, it forms a natural screen, and the middle seal is engraved with the word "Wu" high. Some green trees and grasses are planted under the stones, which shows a very stylish appearance.
I heard Brother Yuan Fang say that the old man in the village said that this stone was moved by a peerless master in the immortal qi realm thousands of years ago, and the master once said that there will be a figure in the immortal qi realm here, and he didn't say in which time period, maybe it is a heavenly opportunity that cannot be revealed.
In front of the training hall, a group of children of the Xing family were discussing whether to write couplets, how to write them, and what to write. At this time, the old village chief came out of it, and it seemed that his old man had already arrived.
"Children, I just heard you talking about the couplet in the training hall, the couplet must be written, how to write, what to write, how to write better, these questions will be handed over to you, work together, everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high, everyone can create a high-rise building, this is also an opportunity for you young people to show their talents, test how much knowledge you have learned over the years, gold will always shine, of course, this couplet is just an assessment of your culture, and it will not end your opportunity to express yourself, and there will only be more opportunities in the futureγ It's not good to practice martial arts alone, that's to become a reckless man, it's not okay to have a letter, sometimes you will meet a show and meet a soldier who can't be reasonable, civil and military, civil and military, and civil and martial arts can be regarded as talents, we Xingjiabao needs talents, in this world, I'm not afraid that you are excellent, but I am afraid that you are not excellent. In addition, you should be kind-hearted, a person with skills, if there is no moral concept of home, this person will be unpopular, no matter how good your skills are, they are hanging high, useless. Listen, everyone, everyone who wants to participate in the couplet activity has the opportunity to participate, write down what you think on paper, and sign it to your old gentleman Xing Zhicai, and there is a reward for winning the person in the end, hahaha, my old man counts when he speaks, now you can open your brain, I'll go drink tea. The old village chief turned around and left.
The girls in our village were unwilling to lag behind and participated in the event, and the five girls known as the five golden flowers were Xing Xiuying, the daughter of the Xingda family, the daughter of Aunt Hua, Xing Ailian, the daughter of the Xing family, Bifang, the daughter of the Xing family, Xing Yuanyuan, and the daughter of the Xingchen East family, Xing Qiuyue. Several other little sisters also came to join in the fun, Xing Danjuan, the daughter of Xingjin's rich family, Xing Mengxia, the daughter of Xing Fugui's family, Xing Xiangling and Xing Xiangboudoir, Xing Peide's daughters, also came. The competition is a bit fierce, and the boys can't lose their faces, and they whisper to each other to cheer themselves up.
My uncle Xing Mancai made a great effort in the construction of the training hall, and did not collect a little salary, and now the reputation of the village is rising, and he has a flexible mind He has won the trust of the old village chief, and has become the right-hand man of the village chief's grandfather, and has been listed as a candidate for the next village chief.
In the middle of the training ground, Uncle Mancai, Father and Xing Daxing all the fathers gathered, they pointed and chatted under the big stones, and the uncle saw many girls and boys gathered in groups of three or four, so he came up with the idea of letting these children perform kung fu, so the uncle mentioned this idea.
Dad smiled and said, "As long as you have a lot of things, what's so happy about making some pain." The uncle replied solemnly, "Alas, you can't say that, if you make offerings to them as vases, will they still be productive?" We should let them know what setbacks and difficulties are, and it will also help them to understand themselves, and it is also necessary to provide them with opportunities to display their talents. β
"Then you go and pick them out, let them fight, and I'll be able to feast my eyes on it. As he spoke, he rubbed his hands together, his eyes showing anticipation.
As elders, we have the obligation and responsibility to guide and supervise this group of children, so that they will never slack off in the face of difficulties, strive for excellence in learning, and it is right to go up to a hundred feet. β
Xing Dali's eyes widened and said, "Second Brother Mancai is talking more and more like the old village chief, and he is really admirable when he talks about it one by one." β
Xingquan also echoed, "The second brother is a candidate for village head, and he is still one of the best masters in our village in terms of fist and foot kung fu, unlike the three of us who are rough haha." β
"Brother, you guys can continue to talk, I'll go to the children's side to have a look. Uncle said hello and turned to leave.
"Nephews and nieces, all come around, all come around, listen to my uncle and I say a few words, just now the old village chief grandfather asked you to do couplets, I think the weather is very good this afternoon, and there are not many opportunities for your brothers and brothers to get together, so put the couplets in the evening and then think, now let you come to the kung fu that you have studied for a few years to perform, after comparison, you can see how far you have practiced kung fu, we can learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, no matter how great a person's ability is, there will be no great progress behind closed doors, what do you think, do not let you work in vain, and there is a reward for winning in the endγ Oh, you should first take out the eighteen weapons equipped in the village and familiarize yourself, and I will go and find Xingshi Huiyou and guide you to do a good job. β
At this time, I was sitting in the training hall, and several little girls, Xing Xiangling, Xing Xiangboudo, and Xing Mengxia, surrounded me and asked me to tell stories. What's the best thing to talk about, let's come to the vast mountain to practice getting rid of the fierce python. Just as I was talking about a giant python stringing down from the mountain, the firewood and grass on both sides parted like water waves, and the mouth opened wide to show the thumb-like teeth, and slammed into the face, just like this, I said that my hands pretended to be snakes swallowing people, and these girls hugged their heads one by one and screamed.
"Uncle has something to look for me, I won't play with you anymore, I'll go over right away. "I got up and walked out. "Brother Xingshi, let's talk about it next time with a different story, today's story is too frightening. "These girls are very timid. "Okay. β
"Is there anything wrong with my uncle?" I asked. "That's the case, the weather is good today, I want to organize the children to perform their kung fu, first, to improve their kung fu, second, to have a decent activity ceremony when the new hall is completed, and third, to enliven the atmosphere, what do you think?"
"Uncle's idea is good, but the time is too rushed, and it will definitely not be completed in the afternoon, what do you want me to do, uncle?"
"Is there a problem with this matter for you to organize and guide them in order?"
"The problem is no, but I can't do it alone, so I have to find someone to help. β
"Okay, you can do it, if there is anything you need, just ask, and our village will try to cooperate with you. Uncle patted me on the shoulder.
"Xinghui has!" I shouted to the sky, and as soon as the words fell, a young man hurried to arrive.
"Xinghui of the third detachment of the fifth brigade of the new barracks has reported for duty, please instruct the commander!"
"When you come to Jiji, I have something to discuss with you, Uncle Mancai wants to let his brothers and sisters perform kung fu, hold an opening ceremony of the training hall, and we will organize activities according to the arrangement, I want to listen to your opinion. β
Xing Hui You just wanted to answer with his chest straight, I shook my hand, "Brother Hui You, you don't have to be like this at home, it's just your brother's order." β
"Okay, this question is too sudden, I haven't been prepared yet, listen to your plan first, and then I'll provide a reference. Xinghui said.
"Okay! I said, in the past, the people in the village practiced by themselves, and they did not go through unified, standardized, and reasonable training, but now let them perform, and the individual is okay, but the group performance will be a mess, let them undergo militarized training for a period of time, and then do a collective performance after they have coordinated. Brother Hui, you will be the instructor. Uncle, do you think it's okay?"
"I don't have any advice for the time being, so I'll obey your arrangement. Hui You said with a smile.
"I haven't considered this issue yet, so let's put the performance on hold in advance, and I'll give them a breath now. Uncle Mancai glanced over there.
"Boys and girls, listen, you young people are the future of the village, and if the youth is strong, the village will prosper, and for your strength, it is for the prosperity of the village, so the village will hold a twenty-day military training for you, and all young people must participate, of course, there are special circumstances and those who are not in good health can not come. During the military training, there are rewards for good performance, and Xingshi Hui will be your instructor, I hope you will cooperate well with the work of the two brothers, in addition, I tell you, the young do not work hard and the boss is sad, and the opportunity will not come again, the opportunity for a person to work hard is limited, you grasp today's opportunity, you will have the chance of success tomorrow, since ancient times, there will be no seed, is a dragon or a snake, is a tiger or a cat to see how you have changed, and your instructor will talk to you below. β
I picked up the topic, "Brothers and sisters, the old village chief grandfather said that if you have literature and no martial arts, you will become a coward, and if you encounter an unreasonable and barbaric strongman, you will be insulted or even die, if you go to the battlefield, there will be no distinction between the champion and the flower, only the difference between life and death, and the knockout match at the cost of life, a period of twenty days is like this, six days of physical training, six days of combat training, six days of team training, and the last two days are reviews and tests, and it will officially start tomorrow. Brother Hui Youge is your coach, although the training time is relatively short, but the overall training method should basically be mastered by you, I hope you will learn well. β
The training hall in Xingjiabao was completed, and I originally wanted to hold a decent event, but due to the lack of time, the old village chief, his uncle, and the main person in charge of the village discussed postponing the ceremony for 20 days, and the meeting decided to unanimously approve it.
Finally, the day that people are looking forward to has arrived.
At eight o'clock in early summer, the sun filled the entire training ground, and the men, women and children of the village gathered in front of the training hall.
The contestants who participated in the couplet handed in their works to the training hall early, and Mr. Xing Zhicai received more than 30 words one after another. The old gentleman began to carefully select the works of each contestant, and for the sake of fairness, all the names of the contestants were closed.
At nine o'clock in the morning, more people came to the practice field, and Xing Huiyou came out of the training hall in two lines with twenty children of the Xing family.
"Stand up, look to the right, look forward, and rest. After the Xingjiabao training team was assembled, he looked at the leader's lecture. "I'll step forward," Instructor Huiyou has worked hard, and he has a little rest on the side, and the old village chief and grandfather will speak to us, please applaud. β
There was applause from the audience, and the old village chief's grandfather stood up from the rostrum and waved to everyone, and the audience suddenly calmed down and pricked up their ears to listen to the old man's words.
The old village chief's grandfather drank saliva to moisten his throat and spoke, "Fellow villagers, fellow martial arts enthusiasts, and friends from afar, hello everyone! The Xingjiabao Training Hall has finally been successfully completed thanks to everyone's dedicated help and joint efforts, and I would like to say thank you to you from the bottom of my heart, and thank you to those who support us in obscurity, you have worked hard." β
The old village chief paused and continued, " The original intention of our training hall is to strengthen the physical fitness of the people in the village and build, we oppose the brave and ruthless, the crooked wind of bullying the weak, I have said before, the village is strong, the village is prosperous, the local security can prosper and develop, we Fuchun country will become a prosperous country, we Xingjiabao still have a lot to do, I Xingruhai does not want to be old, but also want to continue to work in this position, but can not disobey the old, in order not to delay the affairs of the village, decided to be the village head in the second half of the year by Xingmancai, Xingmancai's contribution to the village is obvious to all, his talent and character are trustworthy, I hope he can take Xingjiabao people to create a better and newer living spaceγ In order to express our gratitude to everyone, the Xingjiabao Kung Fu Team will show you a wonderful martial arts performance. I hope you like it, and the official performance of the kung fu team begins. β
"Star Dragon, Star Tiger, Single Blade Shield, Spear Start. Xinghui read the list of appearances seriously.
The practice of the single knife against the spear is all brought from the military camp, although Xingjiabao has been martial arts for many years, but the exercises taken are few and pitiful after all.
After a short period of training, plus the previous skills, the two spears have been practiced on the single knife shield, you see the Xinghu spear shakes up the spear, up and down, sweeps, the gun is carried by the stick, forming a gun circle, the single knife shield of the star dragon is not to be outdone, bullying forward, the shield blocks, hits, guards the whole body, single knife splitting, chopping, stabbing, dragging, wanting to break the gun circle, the two people come and go to attract Chen Chen's applause.
The couplet of the training hall over there has been selected, and it is hung at the gate of the training hall, which is the work of Xing Mengxia, (the morning glow dances in the shape of a dragon and tiger, and the bright moon shines on the body of a leopard bear.) Horizontal batch is (art is endless). This adds a dragon and tiger leaping atmosphere to the training hall.
In the open-air practice field, the performance of the team of 20 people was very exciting, and ended with the applause of the audience.
Xing Hui announced, "The following double fist and foot performance, Xing Fengming against Chang Jinshan." β
As an exhibition match, do those fancy moves, attack and defend, grappling and grappling, all kinds of skills are displayed to the extreme.
As soon as the two of them got off the stage, a big young man walked out of the audience, this one-meter-nine tall bear-waisted tiger stood in the middle of the field, and said, "I am the opposite Niujiabao Niu Kui, I like kung fu since I was a child, your performance is great, it makes me feel itchy and itchy, but unfortunately my kung fu is used in actual combat, let me perform...... Haha, I don't like it, I want to get in touch with you kung fu, and it can also add some atmosphere to your admiration, if you think you haven't been invited or you don't have the right thing to do, even if I don't say it. As he spoke, he turned around to leave.
What an arrogant fellow, "Smack!" only the sound of a slap on the table was heard on the podium.
"Slow, it's rare that you have this interest, and our Xingjiabao won't let you down, who will come up and fight him, young men?" the old village chief touched his beard with a majestic look on his face.
Xing Yunfeng clenched his fist to the rostrum, "The old village chief's grandfather asked me to compare with him." "Ask for it. The old village chief nodded.
Xingyun Peak and Niu Kui stood facing each other, looking at each other, the two of them exchanged salutes, and Xinghui stretched out his hand, "Let's go!"
The one-meter-seventy-five Xingyun Peak shook his body and raised his left foot to kick sideways, kicking on Niu Kui's chest, Niu Kui did not move at all, patted the mud on his chest, and ran straight to Xingyun Peak with his right hand, Xingyun Peak flashed his fist, his left hand held Niu Kui's arm, a horizontal elbow went straight to Niu Kui's abdomen, Niu Kui pulled out the elbow of Xingyun Peak to attack, and his body suddenly crashed forward, Xingyun Peak was knocked back a few steps, and was about to fight again, Xing Hui, who was one meter eight tall, raised his hand and stopped Xingyun Peak and said, "How about I come to play with him." β
"It's the same for everyone, I'm not done yet. Niu Kui fiddled with his head and said casually.
"Brother Hui Youyou asked me to come. "Okay. Xing Hui was full of confidence in me, nodded and retreated, while watching.
There was a strange middle-aged man in the audience who frowned, as if he didn't feel right.
"Let's see how about winning or losing?" I clenched my fist at Niu Kui.
"I like it!" Niu Kui laughed.
I was slightly lucky, the peak of the inner qi realm was revealed, Niu Kui was full of energy, and he also transported his skills to the limit, the peak of the inner qi realm, and the audience was waiting to see it.
We each took a few steps back and waited for the moderator to give the order.
"Let's go!" Xinghui ordered.
The four collided, only a sound was heard, and Niu Kui suddenly took seven or eight steps, his hands were bloody, and his face showed a painful expression.
I clenched my fists and said, "Yield." Niu Kui sighed and said, "You are polite, you are willing to lose, I am convinced to lose, I have a request, I don't know if you are willing to agree." β
"Tell me about it. I laughed. "Show your best. Niu Kui had an expectant look in his eyes.
"As you wish. "I shouted, the whole body strength level climbed, Yuan Qi Elementary, Yuan Qi Intermediate, Yuan Qi Advanced, Yuan Qi peak, I stopped the sub-energy rising, afraid of intimidating others, in this small place around the Yuan Qi Realm peak is a god-like sense of existence.
"Thank you for your mercy, you are the number one in this radius, and I have an axe. Niu Kui said.
"Brother Niu is polite, please take a break and continue to watch our performance. β
"Good. Niu Kui returned to the audience, and the whole performance finally ended with the satisfaction of the Xingjiabao people and the foreign audience.
