Out of the wing door, standing in the shadow of the eaves under the porch, Tang Ning raised his head, raised his hand to cover his forehead, and squinted at the dazzling sunlight. The sun is in the west, and the temperature outside is still hot. Knowing that the cicada chirps are intermittent. But one after another, endlessly, seems to be venting the unique afterglow of the hot summer.

The weather in the afternoon was a little hotter than in the morning. The leaves of the old locust tree not far in front of him were all hanging low at the tips of the leaves, and they were hanging weakly. In the past time, the yard has almost been cleaned up, the broken big-bellied bluestone round pier stone bench has also been replaced, and there are two people squatting there wearing sunhats to relay the stone slabs.

Walking down the stone steps, it seemed that he was not used to the heat of the afternoon, Zhou Yu took off his coat, put it on the crook of his arm, and the cuffs of the pure white silk shirt that were put on it were also rolled up high. Use your hands as a fan, fanning the wind back and forth. Looking up at the sky, looking down at the ground, looking at there, looking at here, looking back at this, he muttered, "Oh my God, it's afternoon, it's still so hot! If this were on the West Coast of the United States, my buddy would have gone into the sea with big pants! Blue sky, white clouds, olive trees, gorgeous three-point bikinis, convex blonde beauties, lively beaches, cold cocktails, big parasols, this is the life to enjoy in summer. I think of me Zhou Yu, a handsome guy who is a talent, suave, and popular with thousands of girls on both sides of the strait, why is he exposed to the sun in the sun? Why? Hey, Tang Ning, why do you say why?"

"Hey, what, feed the pigs!" Tang Ning bumped him on the shoulder, and teased: "By the way, there is also a big bathtub made of pure Northeast red pine, do you want to? Beauty doesn't. A handsome guy, are you interested?"

"Get out, come less, it doesn't matter if the big bathtub is in the sea, it's a soaking in the sea, but your handsome guy is more disgusting. I'm here with my buddy...... Do you dare to call yourself handsome? Hurry up, go back and give me some of the two sissy willow eyebrows on your face, and then say this. ”

"Cut, you don't know beauty, do you? We call this specialty! Do you want to grow it or not?"

"You pull it......" Zhou Yu threw him a big roll of his eyes. Very disdainful.

The two chatted for a while, walked through the patio, and walked in the corridor of the east wing.

The Chen family's house is very large, much like the mansion of a large family in the old days. The front and back are divided into several courtyards. There are more than a dozen wings on the east and west sides alone. In addition to the old trees that have been planted for many years, there are also many flowers, most of which are in full bloom, purple and red, and the colors are gorgeous. People say that beauty is like a flower, and a flower is like a beauty. The blooming flowers really resemble the delicate faces of beauties, and the flowers that have not bloomed are like girlish buds, waiting for the most brilliant moment to come. These flowers and plants, I think there should be a special person to take care of them, otherwise they will not be picked up so neatly and grow so well.

Neither of them is that kind of layman, and when they encounter beautiful and beautiful things, of course, they will not forget to appreciate them. Stop and go, until you enter the last courtyard, and then speed up. During this period, I met a few people, and although they saw that Tang Ning and Zhou Yu were new faces, they all nodded with a smile. Tang Ning and Zhou Yu also smiled in response to this kindness. By the way, I described Xia Jiangtao's clothes and appearance to them, and asked if they had ever seen such a person, and several people shook their heads one after another, saying that they had not seen it. At the end of the promenade, turn a little further and you'll be in the backyard. At this time, Tang Ning suddenly asked Zhou Yu, "What time is it?"

Zhou Yu looked down at his watch. "It's almost three o'clock. Let's hurry up, we should be able to catch the shuttle back to Wenxian at half past four. ”

"Hmm. Tang Ning nodded, and frowned again, "I don't know where that bastard ran away." There's nothing here, let's go somewhere else. ”

At this time, I faintly heard the sound of shouting from the backyard. It's like Jiang Tao. But the two are not sure. Tang Ning moved quickly and said, "Let's go, take a look." ”

Zhou Yu followed closely behind, and said as he walked: "Wouldn't it? On such a hot day, it seems that someone is boxing when you hear this movement? Could it be Jiang Tao's kid? His head is caught by the door?"

Tang Ning's pace quickened, he didn't turn his head back, and threw him a sentence: "Stupid, don't you know what it means to practice Sanjiu in winter and practice Sanfu in summer?"

By the time the two of them found Jiang Tao, this kid was really on the large practice ground in the backyard, sweating and fighting a middle-aged man in his forties who was strong and short!

It's not a fight, it should be said that it was drilled by the other party. Jiang Tao only wore a close-fitting sleeveless vest, showing his strong muscles, and his whole body was soaked with sweat. The head and face are even worse, as if they have been doused with water. The grizzled face looks very wolfy. Jumped up from the ground, and once again pounced bravely, still moving fast, punching like the wind. It's like a crazy leopard.

But every blow he struck was lightly pulled to the side by the middle-aged man who was half a head short of him, who was not good-looking, and was wearing a sleeveless round territory yellow sweatshirt, and hit him in the air. This person moves soothingly, with great coordination and rhythmic beauty, pleasing to the eye. The legs go in all directions, the palms and fingers, and the arms open and close, giving full play to the characteristics of Tai Chi that are as soft as cotton, but the softness can overcome the rigidity, the knife cuts and the lotus root is broken, and the silk is implicated, and the circle turns as desired. It doesn't seem to be aggressive, but in fact, it's like Jiang Tao's eighth-level fist, with needles hidden in it. Dangerous kills are in the smallest detail. It's just that this person is hidden.

On the other hand, Jiang Tao had nowhere to use this kind of power, and the feeling of smashing cotton with a heavy hammer made him suffocate to death, and his face turned red. The more anxious you are, the faster your punch will be, and the force will become bigger and stronger. It's full of strength. The momentum is magnificent, the force is exerted in all directions, the whole body is the eyes, and the whole body is the hands. Inch cut, inch take, hard open and hard hit. Hit, poke, squeeze, lean, collapse, shake, assault. One inch, two wraps, three lifts, four shoulders, five pokes, six arms, seven hard, eight falls. Except for the eight major moves of the secret of the eighth level, basically everything that can be used is used. It fully exerts the characteristics of fast speed, strong strength, and fierce and violent Bajiquan. You can faintly hear the strange sound of the fist wind piercing the air. Commonly known as sonic boom. Only when the speed is extremely fast, it rubs against the air, resulting in an abnormal phenomenon.

Jiang Tao's current punching speed is the fastest, and he can only punch seven times in one second. This is already the ultimate that can hold him to death. Beyond this limit, his body will not be able to stand it, and the strict zhòng point will cause tendon tears, bone and joint dislocation, and even direct detachment. This is like a car pulled by a very fast horse, the body structure and skeleton must be strong and reliable enough, otherwise, it will fall apart before it runs far.

In the final analysis, his cultivation level is too low. If he advances to the level of Transformation in his lifetime, he will have a strong body. The vitality in his body was released to form a qi gang, and at that time, he punched in the air, which was not just a sonic boom. Rather, it's an upgraded version of the sonic boom, Thunderblast. The strength is like the release of a flood and angry waves, and the sound is like nine days of heavy thunder, rumbling, similar to the real thunder. Not even too much. At that time, it was the real deterrent and the evil retreated.

If you exaggerate a little more, you can cultivate to the legendary legend, which is at the top of the martial arts, and has been extremely rare since ancient times, then a fierce person like Jiang Tao who practices eighth-level boxing and other hard-core and fierce kung fu can really become the incarnation of the god of war. Knives and guns are hard to hurt. In addition to the eyes, throat, heart, genita and other vital parts, when the whole body is concentrated, it can almost directly block bullets. This kind of person has been called a name since ancient times, and that is the land immortal!

But now Jiang Taoyun said that Lu Shenxian is immortal. Under the hands of the middle-aged man, he was played around. I can't even touch the corners of people's clothes. The faster his movements, the slower the middle-aged man, as if every movement was at his fingertips, extremely casual and comfortable, with a strong contrast and visual impact between the two.

In the last stroke, at the wrong moment, the single palm that stood up was attached to Jiang Tao's back, and he suddenly exerted force, and suddenly exploded, pushing him out of the air. Bang. Fell on the grass seven or eight meters away. This time, he couldn't get up. Reluctantly, he rolled over, his face facing the sky, his chest rising and falling violently, and he gasped for breath.

"Young man, are you still here?" the middle-aged man stood seven or eight meters away and greeted him.

"No...... Not coming, not coming...... The eighth-level boxing can't beat Tai Chi, I admit and admit defeat...... "The chest is like a fire, and the mouth and throat are hot and stinging when the air flow is flowing, and I gasp for several times before I can gradually smooth out the vitality in my body."

The middle-aged man slowly approached him and reached out to pull him up. Throw down the grass and dust that sticks to him for him. looked at him seriously and said slowly: "No, young man, you are wrong. ”

Jiang Tao moved his sore shoulders, arms, and wrists, stunned. Turning his head to look at the middle-aged man, "Am I wrong?"

"Yes, you are wrong. Couldn't be more wrong!"

"I hope that the seniors will show me. The kid couldn't be more grateful. ”

"Young man, you remember, the boxing techniques of all sects and factions in the world are fierce and domineering, and the attacks are incomparable, and there are about eight levels of boxing, but there are very few. If you lose to me, it's not that Bajiquan can't work, nor does it mean that my Chen family's Taijiquan can be stronger than your Bajiquan. It's that you're ignoring the most important point of Bajiquan. ”

"The most important point?"

"Yes, the most important point!"

"Which point?"

"Bajiquan, eight directions, the whole body is the eyes, everywhere is the hands, pay attention to the inch attack, inch interception, close, explosive to the strong. But it's not like spreading the power out of the attack, it's just the opposite. Every point of attack is full force. In the previous sparring between you and me. The force you hit looks very fierce and the momentum is very strong, but in fact, the strength contained in it is scattered. If the force is insufficient, the punch will be weak, not to mention the waste of strength, it has no effect, so it was very light and was pulled aside by me and hit in the air. ”

Jiang Tao wiped the sweat from his head and face, and humbly asked for advice. "So how do I make every point of attack powerful?"
