Chapter Twenty-Nine: "Four Wears" and "Four Tips" Spiritual Training
Lin Changming and Lin Hong, father and son, went out to Tanglin City Hospital for examination in the morning, but came back early in the afternoon.
The routine examination was done a circle, and it was a blood test and a urine test, and it was found that there was no big problem, the only problem was malnutrition, the doctor said a lot to Lin Changming, saying that "no matter how bitter you are, you can't bitter the child", the child is in the period of growth and development, and needs a lot of nutritional supplements, etc., so that Lin Changming usually gives the child a better meal, and it is no problem to keep up with the nutrition.
For this, Lin Changming could only nod yes. In fact, he is also very strange in his heart, since the economic conditions of the family have improved, he has really never treated the children badly, although the family does not have meat at every meal, but it is not much worse. And he also knows that children need nutrition when they grow up, and often intentionally improves his son's diet, and his son does not have less than three bowls of rice at a meal, but he didn't expect that in the end, he still ended up malnourished.
The child from Guo Laosi's family opposite their house didn't eat as well as Lin Hong, he was just less than eleven years old, and now he has at least 100 catties, and he is almost as fat as a piglet.
As for the phenomenon of frequent headaches and insomnia, the doctor did not give a reasonable explanation, but said that it may also be a side effect caused by malnutrition, but it cannot be diagnosed. The city hospital did not have the right equipment to examine the brain, so he suggested that Lin Changming take his son to visit big cities, such as Shanghai, where he heard that there were advanced machines imported from abroad that could take pictures of the brain and detect symptoms.
Lin Changming was a little worried about this situation, after all, Lin Hong had a head injury when he was a child, and he didn't know if the cause of this headache and insomnia was the sequelae left by that time.
"Dad, in fact, it's not a big problem, aren't many people have headaches? Like Aunt Wang and Cousin Peach Blossom, it seems that they often have headaches. Lin Hong comforted his father and said.
"You know what, it's normal for women to have headaches, you're different from them." Lin Changming, who was worried, couldn't help but smile bitterly at his son's words, "You, you should have told me about this a long time ago, instead of keeping it a secret." ”
"Oh, I'll tell you right away if I have a headache in the future." Lin Hong hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Dad, I want to discuss something with you." ”
"Well, what's the matter? If you have something, just say it. Lin Changming replied casually. His mind was a little tangled at the moment, and his mind kept thinking about the doctor's advice.
"I don't want to go to sixth grade anymore, I want to go straight to junior high school."
"Oh?" Lin Changming suddenly stopped and looked back at his son, "Why?" ”
"Actually, I mastered the primary school curriculum a long time ago, and it would be a waste of time to continue in primary school. I want to finish junior and high school early and then go to ...... Go to university in the capital. Lin Hong finally mustered up the courage to tell his father about it.
For a long time, the word "Beijing" has been a topic that the father and son often deliberately avoid. Lin Hong didn't say why he wanted to go to the capital, and Lin Changming didn't ask, just nodded: "Well, I know." I'll think about it for a moment and come back to it. ”
Back home, Lin Changming explained a few words, and hurried to the factory, today for his son's affairs were delayed for most of the day, and the things in the factory could not be put down.
Lin Hong looked at the time, it was more than four o'clock in the afternoon, and the school had not yet ended at this time, he thought about it, and decided to go to the scrap yard and stay at home There was nothing to do.
When I got there, I found that the master had not gone back, but was sitting in the courtyard, playing the score by myself according to the chess score.
"Master." Lin Hong shouted.
"Coming back?" The old grandson glanced at him, and then asked, "What does the doctor say?" ”
Lin Hong moved a low bench and sat opposite the master: "The doctor said that everything is normal, but he is a little malnourished." Later, it was recommended to go to the big city again to check it out. ”
Lao Sun Tou was not surprised to hear this result, it can be said that he expected it, after all, he had already checked it before, and there was no major difference from his diagnosis. Let's talk about a county-level city hospital, what can be found out about the medical level?
"You, what a big stomach, you eat so much every day and your nutrition is not bright!" He sighed a few words, and then said, "Come and accompany Master to kill a few games." ”
"Oh, okay." Lin Hong nodded happily in agreement and immediately began to swing. He is still a little interested in playing chess, and there are many variations in it, which he likes very much. He remembers that it was his master who taught him how to play chess.
Lin Hong quickly set up the chess pieces, and was about to start, but heard the master say, "Don't move yet!" ”
"What's wrong?"
"You let me carry out the cannons." Old Sun Tou said as a matter of course.
"Uh...... All right. Lin Hong nodded helplessly.
……
The final result still did not change the tragic fate of Lao Suntou's repeated defeats.
"You stinky boy, you won't let the old man go!" The old grandson scolded very depressedly.
Lin Hong was helpless: "Master, play chess and let go, what's the point." ”
"Okay, okay, you're good!"
Lao Sun Tou didn't have the heart to play anymore, anyway, he played chess with Lin Hong, and he never won it, so what fun was there in this chess?
Between that, he twisted his neck and moved his body with his buttocks, and then asked, "You've been standing in three-body posture for almost three years, right?" ”
"Yes, Master. It's been three years, four months and eight days. Lin Hong replied immediately.
"You remember it very well." Old Sun Tou glanced at him in surprise, "You must already have some strange masters in your heart, it took three years to teach you a three-body pose, right?" ”
Lin Hong shook his head: "No." Master, didn't you say that the three-body pose is the foundation of Xingyi Fist? The longer I practice, the more I can feel the true meaning of your words, and every time I stand in the three-body pose, I can experience a different feeling. ”
Lin Hong's words made the old grandson a little surprised, he didn't expect Lin Hong to have this feeling, to be able to endure loneliness, and to endure all kinds of temptations.
"Looks like I'm underestimating him." The old grandson sighed, "This child is extremely rare in terms of mind, conduct and temperament, and he will become a great weapon in the future!" ”
"It's best that you feel that way." Lao Sun Tou nodded with satisfaction and said, "We martial arts practitioners, the heart is the most important, do everything the same, impatient." Just like building a high-rise building, once the foundation is laid, the high-rise building will no longer be a problem, and if the foundation is not strong, the two or three floors will be crumbling. You will later understand why you are only taught three-body poses in the first three years. ”
Lin Hong nodded, indicating that he could understand.
"Now, it's time to teach you something else." Old Sun Tou put his hands behind his back, showing the majesty of the master, "What you teach today, you practice it well, maybe it will help you with headaches." ”
"The real Xingyi boxing, in addition to practicing the three-body posture at the beginning, also needs to practice the spirit. As the saying goes: 'Practice boxing first practice courage', to put it bluntly, this courage also belongs to the scope of the spirit. To practice Xingyiquan, you must first start with spiritual training, which is a very big difference between Xingyiquan and other boxing methods. ”
After saying this, the old grandson came to the middle of the courtyard and began to demonstrate with movements.
"The spirit has no concrete form, it is ethereal, how can it be practiced? Here is the 'four wearing' mantra, you memorize it carefully, and in the process of practicing boxing in the future, you will carefully understand it. The 'four wears' are: the eyes must see through, the gods must shine through, the qi must be urged to penetrate, and the force must be penetrated. If you can comprehend the spirit of 'four wears', your own temperament will have a qualitative change, exuding a kind of divine might, and others will not dare to look at you at all...... It's like a tiger catching a sheep, and before it can start moving, just standing in front of the sheep, the legs and feet are paralyzed with fright, and they can't move and wait for the tiger to pounce on it......"
I see. Hearing this, Lin Hong remembered that when he looked at his master before, he did have this feeling, and when he glanced at him, he often felt as if he was being targeted by a fierce beast, and his scalp was numb.
"The four 'wearing' is the training of one's own spirit, in addition, the shape and meaning also have the 'four tips'. Human beings have blood, flesh, tendons, and bones, and their ends are called 'tips', with hair as blood tips, tongue as flesh tips, teeth as bone tips, and claws as tendon tips. If you exert yourself hard, you can change your normal state and make people fearful......"
Angry hair rushes to the crown, tongue blooms spring thunder, teeth and claws......
With the master's explanation, Lin Hong's mind kept coming up with idioms, these truths are often seen in daily life, and they can indeed enhance the momentum, but they did not expect that the ancestors of Xingyi Quan had already summarized it into a systematic theory, and consciously trained for these to achieve the purpose of enhancing their own spirit.
After talking about the theory, Lao Sun Tou taught Lin Hong a set of practice methods, and clearly told him that in the past few years, he has slowly realized the essence of "four wears" and "four tips", and when he has practiced to a certain level, he will teach him specific playing methods.
