Mingyue Martial Arts Hall, a famous martial arts hall in San Francisco's Chinatown, the owner of the hall, Shang Yun, is said to be the inheritor of Shang-style Xingyi Fist, and holds all the essence of Guoshu left by Shang Xiangyun, the great master of national arts. Moreover, Shang Yun himself is said to have cultivated his strength, and enjoys a high reputation in the Chinese art world.

In the Mingyue Martial Arts Hall, on the solid wood floor, Shang Yun, who had gray hair and was full of energy, was explaining to the two people: "Xingyi Quan pays attention to all the laws and originates from the three-body style, no matter what level your kung fu has reached in the future, you must remember that if you can't stand in the three-body pose, you won't be able to practice Xingyi Fist!" ”

"Yes, father."

"Yes, Master." The two responded separately.

The man named Shang Yun as his father is a young man in his twenties, about 1.8 meters tall, with a strong body and thick hands and feet. This is Shang Yun's son, named Shang Xiaolong, who was taken by Shang Yun to commemorate a generation of kung fu legend Bruce Lee.

The one named Shang Yun as the master is an 18 or 9-year-old child, 1.9 meters tall, with a slender body, thin and long hands and feet, wide palms, and when his hands naturally droop, they are close to his knees! Hand over knee, in ancient China, this is a saint statue! It is also believed in the national art that such a person is a martial arts wizard. His name is Li Du, and he is Shang Yun's favorite apprentice.

Li Du came to the United States with his parents at a young age, and his parents died soon after, which is said to be a recurrence of an old injury in his early years. His father is a lover of Chinese culture, and Li Du's name is because his father likes the poet fairy Li Bai and the poet saint Du Fu, and he named it after the two of them.

Li Du's mother is one of the descendants of Xingyi Bagua Boxing, so after the death of his parents, his mother's senior brother Shang Yun adopted Li Du.

Shang Yun is the descendant of Xingyi Bagua Boxing, he is very good to Li Du, treats him as his own, and asks Li Du and his son Shang Xiaolong to learn national art with him. Li Du was influenced by his parents and was very interested in Chinese culture and Chinese arts.

Under Shang Yun's full training, the 19-year-old Li Du, who has finally stepped into the upper echelon of Mingjin in Guoshu cultivation, has reached the limit of a normal person's physical fitness, but he is very disgusted with the way of playing in Guoshu, so although he is also very fascinated by Guoshu, he prefers Guoshu.

Shang Xiaolong is 5 years older than Li Du, and he has been practicing boxing for many years, and he concentrates on national arts, and he already has a middle-level cultivation of dark energy at a young age.

The two are one writer and one martial arts, and they are praised by people in the Chinese circle as "Shang's Shuangji".

Like the vast majority of national arts masters, Shang Xiaolong also attaches great importance to actual combat, and therefore joined a certain club, and even participated in some black boxing competitions, so as to improve his national martial arts cultivation through actual combat of life and death. Li Du didn't like his senior brother's approach very much, thinking that it was too risky to fight for life and death on the stage of life and death. So he only cultivates national arts, but refuses to participate in any clubs, let alone black boxing.

Shang Yun is a very enlightened master, he does not interfere with the choice of the two, in his words, life is like a boxing, no matter what the master teaches, in the end, you have to cultivate by yourself. But every week, Shang Yun would take the time to explain some things related to national arts to the two of them alone, no matter how Shang Xiaolong and Li Du chose their own paths, they had to pass on the national arts of their own lineage.

After the explanation, Shang Yun called his wife, and the four of them had breakfast together, and then Shang Yun would let Shang Xiaolong and Li Du go out, which was the rule of their family.

During the meal, Shang Xiaolong said to Shang Yun while eating: "Dad, I have a boxing match this month, the opponent is practicing Baji Boxing, you are experienced, I will trouble you to help me analyze and analyze it later, how will this person fight?" ”

Shang Yun didn't speak yet, his wife sitting on the side, Shang Xiaolong's mother sighed and complained: "Xiaolong, what do you say you are doing all day long for those big guys, how good it is to be safe and sound in this martial arts hall, your father and I are old, and you will inherit the martial arts hall in the future." You said that if you have something, what will you do if you let us two old people! ”

Shang Xiaolong couldn't do anything about his mother, so he hurriedly glanced at Li Du, Li Du and Shang Xiaolong have lived together and practiced martial arts since they were children, and they are closer than their own brothers, seeing that their senior brother gave him a look, Li Du immediately patted his mother's back lightly and comforted: "Master, don't worry, no matter what Senior Brother says, he has also entered the dark energy, and ordinary people are not his opponents at all." Besides, with Master's help in the analysis, it will definitely win. ”

Shang Yun nodded, and said to his wife in a deep voice: "Don't be surprised, I didn't fight black boxing when I was young." If you want to improve your national martial arts, you must actually fight! Even if Xiaolong inherits the martial arts hall in the future, he has no reputation and no actual combat ability, how can he inherit it! ”

As he spoke, Shang Yun said to Shang Xiaolong, "Let's go, bring your opponent's information, and I'll help you take a look." ”

After they left, the old lady was still shaking her head and sighing, and Li Du comforted: "Master, don't worry, with Master here, Senior Brother will not lose." ”

The old lady smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Du, don't be relieved of my heart, I've seen too many martial arts competitions, and I understand everything." The competition determines the winner or loser, five points of strength, five points of luck, no one can say for sure. Back then, your mother's kung fu was higher than your master's, what happened in the end? It's not that I'm injured in the ring. ”

Saying that, the old lady continued to nag: "It's better for you to reassure people, how good it is to read, it won't make people worry so much." ”

No matter how sensible Li Du is, he is only a 19-year-old child, where does he have the patience to listen to the old lady's nagging so much, after a few bites of rice in the bowl, he picked up his bag and ran out, "Master, I'll go first, there are many people reading books in the library." ”

The old lady hurriedly advised: "Be careful on the road! ”

"Got it!"

Li Du responded loudly and flew out of the gate of the martial arts hall.

Li Du's car was parked at the entrance of the martial arts hall, a second-hand Audi A4, which was bought by the master when he stepped into the upper floor of Mingjin. Children who grow up in the United States generally have a driver's license at the age of 18, and Li Du is now 19 years old, has already gone to college, and has long had his own car.

The study of American universities is not heavy, so Li Du has always liked to hold a book on national studies in his spare time, and read it carefully, until now, in addition to "Dream of Red Mansions", he has read the other three books many times, and the four books and five classics have been read since childhood, and his enlightenment is the same as that of ancient Chinese children, reading "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names" and "Thousand Character Text".

With his love for Chinese studies, Li Du was successfully admitted to the University of Southern California last year. In fact, college is not important to Li Du, he will not look for a job in the future, and after graduation, he will directly teach boxing in the martial arts hall like his senior brother.

Recently, Li Du has been reading Taoist books, and the Zhuangzi and Tao Te Ching are his top priorities during this time.

"There is a fish in the North Underworld, and its name is Kun. The Kun is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is. Turned into a bird, its name is Peng. Pengzhi is big, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is, and he flies angrily, and his wings are like clouds hanging from the sky...... "Li Du muttered "Zhuangzi? In the words of "Getaway", he yearned for the Kunpeng described by Zhuangzi, and sighed: "The imagination of the sages is beyond our reach, swaying up to 90,000 miles, carrying the blue sky and walking, this kind of majestic atmosphere can only be imagined by a god-like sage like Zhuangzi!" ”

Just when Li Du's whole mind was immersed in Zhuangzi's words that looked at the world and escaped the world, a rapid phone ringing interrupted his thoughts.

Li Du opened the phone and saw that it was the master calling! Master never called him when he was in school, and with a hint of bad omen in his heart, Li Du picked up the phone: "Hey, Master." ”

Shang Yun's heavy voice came from the phone: "Xiao Du, your senior brother is injured, and we are now in Caesar Hospital." ”

Li Du "chuckled" in his heart, only to feel that the blood in his whole body was cold! Hurriedly said, "Master, I'll come over now." ”

After hanging up the phone, Li Du clutched the book in his hand tightly and hurriedly walked outside the school, forgetting to even ask the teacher for leave.

Turning over and jumping into the car, Li Du let out a long breath, forced himself to calm down, started the car, and rushed to Caesars Hospital.

When Li Du came to the hospital, his master, his wife, and several brothers were waiting anxiously at the door of the operating room, Master Shang Yun kept pacing back and forth with a calm face, and his wife sat on the plastic chair at the door of the operating room to hide her face and cry.

Li Du grabbed the master in a few steps, grabbed the master's hand and asked, "Master, how is my senior brother?" What the hell is going on? ”

Shang Yun sighed heavily, took out a mobile phone from his jacket pocket and handed it to Li Du, "See for yourself, I don't know if Xiaolong can survive this time, even if he survives by luck, I'm afraid that his kung fu will be wasted!" ”

A few words made Li Du's heart tremble, he knew the danger of the national art play, but the senior brother had already stepped into the dark a few years ago, and he was also a famous big boxer in the rivers and lakes, who could hurt him like this?

When I opened my phone, there was a video inside, which seemed to have been specially filmed by someone.

On a wide cement platform, Li Du's senior brother Shang Xiaolong put on a starting hand of Xingyi Fist and waited for him, standing opposite him was a short and thin man who was about 1.7 meters tall and about 30 years old, this person was wearing a black coarse cloth coat, and a pair of black cloth shoes under his feet, like the old generation figures during the Republic of China.

Seeing this person's starting gesture, Li Du's heart sank, this person made Bajiquan!

There are many types of Chinese martial arts, but there is only one kind of outer boxing that can stand side by side with the three major internal boxing! Over the years, there have been many masters of Bajiquan, and because of the powerful lethality of Bajiquan, it has spread the saying that "Wen has Taiji to secure the world, and Wu has Baji to set the world".

Shang Xiaolong used Xingyi Boxing, and the opponent used Baji Boxing, which is a duel between the two major boxing techniques, and both boxing techniques pay attention to the strong momentum, Baji Boxing is the heaviest momentum, and the playing style is wide open and closed, such as a tiger descending the mountain. Xingyi Boxing pays attention to seizing the middle line, and the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road! This competition is destined to be a hard-fought contest!
