Chapter 48 Entry Criteria

Old Man Bai's appetite was really amazing, and twenty buns were quickly wiped out by him, plus three bowls of eight-treasure porridge. Li Ruoyu also ate a lot, and when he stood down in the three-body pose in the morning for half an hour, he was already hungry, so he ate six steamed buns in one go, as well as two large bowls of eight-treasure porridge. And Bai Yurou and Bai Mu's appetite was much smaller, and the two of them ate a small bowl of eight-treasure porridge and two buns respectively, and they were full.

After eating, Bai Yurou and Bai Mu went out to buy vegetables, and Li Ruoyu followed Old Man Bai to continue to learn the three-body pose.

The two came to the middle of the courtyard, and Old Man Bai stood still in front of Li Ruoyu, and said loudly: "Ruoyu, yesterday you have learned the practice method of three-seven-step three-body pose. Today I will tell you about the entry standard of Xingyi Quan and the principle of three-body pose. You must listen well! ”

Li Ruoyu nodded seriously and said, "Uncle, you can start talking!" If you don't understand something, I'll ask you again! ”

Old Man Bai smiled: "Okay." Let me first talk about the entry standard of our Sun's Xingyi boxing! This standard is not met by many practitioners in their lifetime, and it is not easy. This standard is also three contents, the first is to have the ability to practice refining and refining qi inside, the second is to have the strength to be strong outside, and the third is to have the ability to sit and lie down with the spirit of the dantian in the search for the zhang. In other words, if you feel these three signs one day, then you are truly getting started! ”

Li Ruoyu said in surprise: "These three standards are really difficult!" Let's talk about the third one, you can pounce a few meters away at any time while sitting, I have never heard of such a person before I met my uncle! ”

Old Man Bai said: "Yes, because there are fewer and fewer people who have internal strength!" So there are naturally fewer people who can get started! Let me tell you about the concept and principle of the three-body pose. The so-called three-body problem, also known as the three talents, originally refers to heaven, earth, and man. In the Xingyi Quan Sutra, it is said that the human body is also a small world, so there is also a three-body theory, which is the origin of the name of the three-body style of Xingyi Fist. It is also called the three-talent type or the eagle catching type. The so-called three-body problem also refers to the upper, middle and lower three plates, such as the head, upper limbs, and lower limbs, and also includes the upper and lower, inside and outside, and the whole body. ”

"At first, I felt bitter and difficult to endure when I practiced pile gong, but after a long time, I would have an endless aftertaste, and even the pile was solid, and the inside and outside were full; Strengthened physique, ** vigorous. With the strength of the pile, it can not move like a mountain, otherwise what fist is like a cannon and the dragon turns around, it can only be empty talk. Because the roots are not stubborn and weak, how can they let people go to control the enemy? ”

"The practice and use of Xingyi Quan basically use the leg strength and step type used in the three-body pose. Walking is generally like a locust insect step. No matter how to kick the front foot, the stereotyped action is still inseparable from the three-body pose, which is because practice is used, practice makes perfect, and the skill is pure and self-refined, so the three-body pose is the pile gong of the unity of all the laws of Xingyi Boxing. The standing pile is to build the foundation, finalize, and find strength and strength. Therefore, it is far from enough to stand for a year or two piles, and it is necessary to stand constantly and continuously. If you don't stand on the pile for a long time, not only will your legs be weak and your body will be scattered, but also your posture will be deformed. ”

The more Old Man Bai spoke, the more excited he became, these Xingyi boxing principles, he has always buried them deep in his heart, because no one has been willing to listen to him for many years, and now he finally caught Li Ruoyu, a manufacturable material, how could he not be excited!

Li Ruoyu listened to it and remembered it at the same time, of course, this memory was all memorized! Although he still can't really understand these truths yet, when he practices diligently, he will naturally have a deep understanding of these truths.

Seeing that Li Ruoyu was listening carefully, Old Man Bai said happily: "Ruoyu, as long as you practice the three-body pose I taught you diligently, you will know its benefits." Standing three-body pose is a basic introductory kung fu, from the leg trembling, air floating, becoming energetic, hands and feet hot, and then hand and knee joints squeak, not only others can touch with their hands, when the sound is loud, you can also hear the squeaking sound of fingers and knees. The three-body pile work does have the effect of strengthening the body, pulling the tendons and pulling the bones, enriching the dantian, and running through the four ends. ”

Li Ruoyu nodded and said: "Uncle, I will definitely practice this three-body pose every day in the future, but I saw it in the book before, saying that the three-body pose should be done with four elephants, chicken legs, dragon body, bear arms, and tiger hugging the head." But I don't know what these four images mean. ”

Old Man Bai laughed and said, "It's rare that you still know the four elephants!" The three-body style of Xingyi requires four images, which is to like the special skills of each object, turn it into a specialty of their own martial arts, and use it skillfully, which is conducive to actual combat. Although the three-body pose is static, it is a pictogram that takes the meaning, and the movement in the stillness is to cultivate these stunts and build the foundation. First of all, the chicken leg is to learn the independent shape of the chicken, the stability and the clamping of the legs, and grind the shins. Xingyi boxing has the specialty of highlighting the front and back kicks. In this way, the practice is well-practiced, and the work is deep for a long time, and the actual effect will be multiplied when used in technical attacks. ”

"The dragon has the method of searching bones, the trend of three folds, and it is long enough to turn and move so that the body can be displayed, and it is more vigorous and powerful. When standing in triaana, the front knee is slightly raised forward and the back knee is buckled. In order to make the three urges of the upper and lower limbs straight, and to reach smoothly, and directly promote the waist strength, it is very important to master and use the body strength of the dragon's body. When the back knee is buckled, the upper body is twisted backwards, forming a trend that seems to be positive and non-positive, and oblique and non-oblique, so that the waist is twisted and the legs are smooth, and the hip force is urged forward. In this way, the crotch can be wrapped around the waist, the strength of the three urges will succeed, and the waist strength will be developed, then the dantian province will naturally multiply the power! ”

"The bear arm is to learn the bear to have the characteristics of vertical strength and large vertical force. The three-body pose is used to pull the back and hang the shoulders to straighten the top of the head, lift the spirit, and launch the power of blood. At the same time, because of the hanging shoulders and stretching the arms, the force runs through the elbows and hands, so that the upper limbs are urged three times, and the strength is great. ”

"The tiger hugging his head is learning, the tiger has not pounced on the head and hugged early, and the skills of being ready to go. Learn to use this technique, highlight the elbow without leaving the ribs, the hand without centrifugation, and follow the hole in and out of the hole! This is not only the essence of the technique, but also the style of play. Although the connotation of this technique cannot be seen in the practice of three-body static pile work, it is the technique of holding the head of the tiger that is used in the process of bending the forearm as soon as the pile is held, the elbow is not separated from the ribs, the hand is not centrifuged, and the hand is passed through the heart and mouth from the chin. ”

After listening to the method of the four elephants taught by Old Man Bai, Li Ruoyu seemed to have an understanding and said: "I saw from the book that Xingyi Quan is based on the three-body style, the five-element boxing is the tomb, and the twelve-shaped is used. Imitating the strengths of the twelve animals, practicing Xingyiquan is pictographic meaning, so that we have the ability of animals, but those instincts are that people can't reach the level of animals anyway, and can only get infinitely close to that skill. Animals are the teachers of martial artists. Imitating the practice of their abilities is the means, but not the end. Xingyi Quan is to practice people's supernormal ability, that is, under the circumstances possible, one blow will kill, so that the enemy loses the ability to resist! I don't know if I understand it correctly? ”

Old Man Bai was instantly petrified when he heard this, Li Ruoyu's comprehension was really beyond his expectations, even a disciple of Xingyi Quan who had practiced for many years might not have such a deep understanding of Xingyi Fist! Now he is more and more convinced that Li Ruoyu is a material for practicing form! In fact, what he didn't know was that Li Ruoyu was a reborn person, and in his previous life, he had read a lot of Xingyi writings and Guoshu novels, and there was a more detailed description of the theory of Xingyi Quan in those books.
