Chapter 43 The snake is like a dragon, and the magpie is like a needle
In the next period of time, Bai Ze just hastily familiarized himself with the environment in the villa, and after going out to purchase a batch of food and water, he quickly indulged in the Taoist "Dinghai Needle" pile work, and put all his spirit on his back every day.
Push up from the tail vertebrae, layer by layer, until the back of the head is heavenly.
Although there were Taoists before, they had completely demonstrated to Bai Ze all the practice methods of "Dinghai Needle", from breathing and breathing, practicing qi and storing spirits, to posture and footwork, and sword movement, all of which were thoroughly explained, and Bai Ze could also understand and understand a lot, but theory is theory, and no matter how much understanding there is, it cannot replace practice. Once he really started to practice each specific step, Bai Ze really felt that the difficulty of this style of swordsmanship was something he had never encountered before.
For three days in a row, Bai Ze spent time in constant memories and groping and confirmation, but every time he stood on the pile with his sword, he found that he had never been able to combine internal breathing and external movements without a trace of flaws, and naturally he could not experience the feeling that his spine was completely alive like a dragon and was surrendered.
This is still the basis for him to practice boxing for more than ten years, and now his kung fu has begun to enter the point of combining rigidity and softness, and the ability to control every muscle and bone of the body is far beyond ordinary people. It is still the second to be unable to enter the door for a lifetime, and in serious cases, it will even directly lead to "going mad" because of Hu Lian's blind practice, and the whole person who is out of the way is half-paralyzed and becomes an idiot.
The spine is not just a piece of bone, it also has a spinal cord in it.
In the fourfold principle of boxing, refining and refining qi is only the foundation of the foundation. In fact, the so-called internal strength is not as rare as the legend, any kind of kung fu practiced to the most profound point, almost can produce this kind of power in the body, the difference is only in the quality of the quality, and the amount of weight.
Just like the Aikido, Karate, Yoga in the Tibetan Province of India, Jiu-Jitsu in Brazil, and even the most primitive taekwon, Hua Lang Dao and Muay Thai, which are known for their fierceness and cruelty, also have their own set of perfect theories similar to those in Chinese martial arts, "practicing muscles and bones on the outside, and refining one breath on the inside".
Especially now that information is developed and thousands of years of cultural exchanges have passed, some secrets are no longer secrets, and it is the norm for various martial arts skills to learn from each other and learn from each other's strengths. Even many boxers in China have brought boxing to foreign countries for one reason or another, and it is strange that they can keep the secret after a long time.
And the reason why Bai Ze was able to reach the point of refining qi and transforming gods at such a young age was not entirely because he practiced the inner fist and sword with the Mu Dao people during this time, which was just a catalyst for him to speed up the process, and what really played a decisive role in determining the surname was the foundation of the foreign fist that he had accumulated since he was a child.
However, after reaching this realm, his boxing techniques have actually begun to enter the micro from the macrocosm, and what he needs to continue to polish and learn is only a more subtle and precise grasp of strength.
The real differentiation between the inner and outer families in martial arts is that they have embarked on different paths at this step.
One of the most obvious examples is the practice of this spine on the human body, as the so-called "outside the bones, inside the marrow", which is also the truth.
The inner fist sword, the power goes deep into the internal organs, and the "marrow" in the blood exchange and marrow also refers to the "spinal cord".
Therefore, the spine is no different from other muscles and bones, which can be controlled and changed at will. Even Bai Ze had already understood all the truths at this time, and he had to be cautious again and again when he got started, and he definitely didn't dare to be reckless.
After standing for a few more days, Bai Ze still didn't grasp all the points. But he was not discouraged in his heart, but a movement, a rehearsal of an action, and constantly confirmed the teachings taught by the Taoist in his mind.
Then gradually draw lessons from every mistake in one's own practice, and correct and correct it little by little.
"Caudal vertebrae...... Sacrum...... Backbone...... Thoracic vertebra...... Cervical vertebra...... Hindbrain...... A shot to the sea! ”
Time passes unconsciously, in a blink of an eye, more than half a month of kung fu has passed, Bai Ze is addicted to his own world, so that black and white are not distinguished, even when he walks, he constantly stirs his spine and moves his waist and hips, and at this time, it is only more than ten days since the month given to him by the wooden road man.
It has been almost a month and a half since Bai Ze started practicing boxing with Taoists, and it is not far from the end of his summer vacation.
For more than half a month, Bai Ze stood on the pile every day to carry the sword, and the kung fu of Dinghai Needle became more and more proficient, with the resolution of one mistake after another, his posture of standing up was exactly the same as what the Taoist had demonstrated, holding the sword and eyebrows, squatting down, and lying down together, the back trembled slightly, and the strength rose from the root, running through the sections, giving Bai Ze the feeling that his spine was really alive.
There seems to be an extra dragon in the body.
As long as he holds the sword in his hand, his mind moves, and the whole body seems to be practiced with the sword.
However, it is the internal alchemy of the Dan Qi in the "Dinghai Needle", Bai Ze is still a little incomprehensible, and he has never been able to feel the realm of "Dan Qi running through the spine like a needle, and the whole person is like a mainstay, and I will not move until I am in the waves." ”
On the morning of this day, Bai Ze stood at the end of work, was preparing lunch in the kitchen, cut a piece of refined beef that had been thawed enough to be three or four catties, cut it into strips, put it into a blender and break it in turn, and stirred it with milk and eggs, which was his only recipe of the day.
In order to practice, Bai Ze didn't even bother to do food, when he was on Mount Emei, there were Mudao people who prepared it for him, but now in the huge villa, there are no ghosts except for him, so he simply went to the supermarket and bought a lot of raw and cold fresh beef, eggs, and milk. Drawing on a documentary I didn't know where I saw before, Bruce Lee's practice of drinking beef soup raw, drawing a scoop based on a gourd, making it simple and eating smooth, although the taste is really not very good, but the nutrition is enough to support his daily practice consumption.
As soon as he unplugged the power of the blender and was about to pour out the beef mixture inside, Bai Ze's eyes swept inadvertently, and suddenly from the huge floor-to-ceiling window in front, he saw several flower magpies the size of two fists flying up and down in his garden, and making extremely sharp chirps. It was as if I was greatly frightened.
My heart moved inexplicably, and when I looked down, I saw a "cauliflower snake" more than one meter long in the grass, coiled in a ball, spitting letters at a few magpies in the sky.
Then I saw that his throat was raised high, as if he had just eaten something.
"Hehe, snakes and birds fight, this is rare. Legend has it that Zhang Sanfeng watched the snake and bird fight in Wudang Mountain, and finally realized the truth of yin and yang and created the thirteen potentials of Taiji! I didn't expect that I, Bai Ze, would be able to witness a ...... with my own eyes today! ”
Cauliflower snake is also called yellow-throated snake, king snake, can be seen in many places in China, Bai Ze is not unfamiliar with this snake, and also knows that although this thing is five poisonous, it is ferocious, and when there is no food, it is hungry and hungry, and even eats its own young snakes of the same kind, especially likes to climb trees to prey on birds and devour bird eggs.
Looking at it like this, it must be that this snake has just come down from the tree and attacked the magpie's nest, either eating young birds or eating eggs, which caused the magpies to call friends and chase for a while!!
Three or four magpies chirping, circling in all directions, high and low, you fall down and peck, I fall down and peck, originally it was just a lively look, but after a while, Bai Ze only saw the flower snake suddenly fell down, and then the tail stood up, and the whole body jumped up directly.
At this moment, Bai Ze clearly saw that the entire back and body of the flower snake were stretched into a straight line, and the vertebrae were extended upwards in a ring, and then the snake's head swung up, as fast as lightning, and it was biting an oncoming magpie in one bite.
The snake and the finch rolled to the ground together, and the body of the flower snake was entangled at once, and at the moment when the wind fell, he bit down a magpie, and in a blink of an eye, the bones of the hoop were broken, and he opened his mouth and swallowed it slowly.
In an instant, as if he had been struck on his head by a bolt of lightning, Bai Ze's whole person stood on the ground, motionless, and the joy in his heart was unbearable. Because of the scene just now, the flower snake went from static to moving, and the moment it jumped up, the snake's body was elongated, and the progressive spine was clearly a living teaching material. Combined with his own experience in the past half a month, he actually figured out a lot of truths that he didn't understand before.
"No wonder the ancients practiced boxing, they had to observe birds and beasts, and the movements of this snake are simply the spine!! Legend has it that the big snake swallowed and said that Jing Yuehua, after a long time, he could fly up into a dragon in the deep mountains and Daze, and leap above the nine heavens. ”
What an eye-opener, an eye-opener!!
The more Bai Ze thought about it, the more happy he was in his heart, and when he was sighing arrogantly, he suddenly heard a birdsong again, like a cuckoo crying blood, sharp and piercing, and in a blink of an eye, a black shadow flashed in the sky, and a magpie circled twice, seeing that his companion was devoured by his opponent, and his wings were converging, and he pounced down.
Like a black line, the flower snake has something in its mouth, one is not guarded, and when it raises its head, it is immediately pecked blind in one eye, and it rolls all over the ground, and the grass with the snake's tail crackles, and there is a desire to fight again, but because of greed, he can't open his mouth, so he has to hurriedly burrow into the bushes and swim away.
"Dinghai needle!! Oops...... that's the truth!! In an instant, the magpie forgot to die, pounced down, castrated like electricity, like a long needle, and poked the flower snake blind in a blink of an eye, Bai Ze was suddenly startled, trembled, his scalp was numb, and he immediately picked up the big sword erected on the side, and set a shelf for fixing sea needles in the kitchen.
In an instant, the vertebrae swam like a long snake, from bottom to top, urging step by step, and coming up in one breath, and the whole body seemed to come to life.
Syllable! With a sound, his head swayed again, as if it was the flower snake that flew into the air just now, and the entire spine made a clear sound, Bai Ze felt like a big dragon flying in his body at this time, and the strength was upward, and his whole person seemed to be a lot lighter, and he stepped on it like nothing.
At the same time, the moment his spine became alive, like a snake turning into a dragon, a hot stream suddenly surged upwards in Bai Ze's dantian, surging into his brain, and then falling down in the face of the sensation of his spine. Suddenly, a cool chill poured into his heavenly spirit cover, like an initiation, all the way down his spine, deep into the bone marrow, through the spine, to the perineum, and with a snort, it froze in place.
It was as if there was an invisible needle that nailed Bai Ze's whole person to the ground, goosebumps bulged up all over his body, and his pores were closed.
Suddenly touching the bypass and figuring out all the passes, Bai Ze immediately forgot everything, and kept practicing this type of Dinghai needle over and over again, and practiced it more than thirty times in a row, only then did he feel that there seemed to be a small hole in the front chest and back of the body, and the Dan Qi started from scratch, from slow to fast, and gradually began a complete cycle.
In this way, over and over again, Bai Ze felt as if all the internal organs in his body had disappeared, replaced by a skin of mercury.
Heavy and sticky!!
In the end, as soon as he stood on the pile, his whole body surged around, and it was almost difficult for him to stand steadily, so he had to stop. According to the method taught by the old Tao, cross and overlap the two hands, press on the lower abdomen, and rub and press clockwise.
But at this time, the Dan Qi in his body was simply unprecedentedly full and strong, and as soon as he pressed his hands on his lower abdomen, Bai Ze immediately felt that there seemed to be two more iron balls coming out of his body at some point, connected by springs in the middle.
With a press of the hand, the spring tightened, one iron ball did not move, but the other rushed out in the opposite direction; As soon as it is released, the spring is released, and the iron ball that was originally immobile begins to move, but the released ball is retracted and remains in place. In this way, pressing and pressing, tightening and loosening, his body is like a child swinging, and the force is always endless, endless.
"This is a sign that Xiao Zhou Tiantong is clear?"
Bai Ze's lower abdomen suddenly swelled, and there was a loud gurgling sound between his chest and abdomen, followed by a stream of hot air rushing directly to his throat, which was a hundred times more violent than when he was in the car, and he couldn't suppress it if he wanted to, so he suddenly rushed into his mouth, rushed open his mouth, and couldn't help but let out a long howl.
The howling sounded clearer and clearer, straight into the blue sky, like a cloud, and lasted straight for three or four minutes, and then it stopped abruptly.
At the same moment, between Bai Ze's mouth, there was an air flow that spewed like an arrow, shooting straight out three feet away, although it was already in the middle of summer at this time, and the temperature was high enough, but his hot breath was spewed out of his body, but it was still white gas rolling, as if ordinary people were outside in winter.
It shows that the temperature in this breath is so high that it is almost comparable to boiling water steam.
"Sure enough, it worked!! Hahaha...... It's not easy! A wave of joy rose instantly, and Bai Ze stood in place as if he was stupid.
"But this breath is spit out, although it is a little arrow, but less than five feet, it will dissipate, and the back of the Mudao people is like a line, there is still some gap!! It seems that the heat is still not enough, and the effort is still not enough....... After a long time, Bai Ze recovered from a sense of joy, and immediately understood the gains and losses, and then made such a conclusion to himself, although Xiao Zhou Tian was clear, he had not yet met the requirements of the Taoist before he came!!
"First like an arrow, then like a line! What should be said is the last breath, even if the strength is exhausted, it must be condensed and not dispersed, but I can't eat a fat man in one breath, and it is enough for me to be able to touch the class and get through Xiao Zhoutian today, at least it shows that there is no mistake in my previous practice. If you want to go further in the future, you need to move from static to moving, and it is time to walk the following body and footwork by now practicing the static exercise of Dinghai Needle!! ”
Bai Ze's biggest advantage is that he is always self-reflecting, and he will not be blinded by the momentary progress.
After more than half a month of hard practice, he finally had some preliminary results, and then in seven or eight days, Bai Ze also began to circulate the "plum blossom pile" in the practice room of the villa, using the shelf of the Dinghai needle to practice the kinetic skills and drive the Dan Qi circulation to rise and fall. Of course, with the previous foundation, he will make a lot of progress in his daily practice, and after a week, his kung fu has also made imperceptible progress.
However, drills like him, which do not know day and night, also brought some trouble to Bai Ze. That is, the amount of food he eats every day has increased exponentially, and the food he had prepared for a month according to his own amount of food before he came came was exhausted a week before the end of the month.
With the last piece of beef wiped out, Bai Ze had to stop his regular practice and go out of the villa for the first time to the community's supermarket to make the necessary purchases. ----------------------------------------------------------- about the topic of this chapter of snake and bird fighting, it's really not old Lu nonsense!! It is not simply an imitation of Zhang Sanfeng's deeds, but an experience I witnessed a few years ago when I rented a courtyard house on the outskirts of Yanjing. On a large persimmon tree, two magpies pecked off a snake, but the snake was not big!! Hehe!!
