Su Chen's return to the Southern Tang Dynasty was still short, and he suffered from the fact that there was no master to guide him in martial arts, he was practicing blindly, his progress was not fast, and he had not been able to grasp the essentials, even if Peng Jingqing knew some martial arts, but let him learn martial arts from girls, especially the girls who had always quarreled and claimed that he was useless, he really couldn't pull his face.

Today, when I saw that what Hu Bo said was the way, he looked very reasonable, and his heart jumped, and he hugged his fists and said, "I don't know what advice Hu Bo has?" Would you like to point out to the younger generations? ”

Hu Zhongxian didn't use the score, after all, this is not a place to pretend to be a master, he wants to stay here as a servant for a long time, and he has restrained the fierce momentum of the master on his body, and has been showing it with the demeanor of an old dragon clock, coughing at this time, and said: "Since the son invited, how about the old slave show the son a way?" ”

"What's the way?" Su Chen was a little curious.

"The way of martial arts!" After Hu Zhongxian said four words, he explained: "You only practice fist and foot kung fu, your qualifications are mediocre, and you will have combat effectiveness only in the Year of the Monkey!" It is better to specialize in the same weapon, and when you practice, you can not only strengthen your body, move your muscles and bones, and muscles throughout your body, but also directly bless the combat power, and hold a weapon suitable for you in your hand, then the lethality is ten times stronger than your bare hands. ”

"Weapons training?" Su Chen thought about it for a while, and it was true.

After all, in his time, there was a popular saying: no matter how high your kung fu is, you are afraid of kitchen knives!

If you are bare-handed, you will still suffer in the face of people with weapons, this is the last word.

Su Chen asked, "Then what weapon is suitable for me to practice?" ”

Hu Zhongxian sighed: "One year of sword, ten years of sword, a lifetime of practice of a gun, the gist of this saying is that the knife is easy to use and easy to control, so it is the most suitable for you to learn the knife." As long as you practice knives all year round, master skills, spit out, make knives, and split knives, you can also have enough lethality over time, and it will be very practical on the battlefield, which is much more effective than practicing swords. ”

"Knife practice?" When Su Chen was groaning, his palm was compared to a knife, and he slashed it in the void, but he felt it.

"Okay, then practice knives, does Hu Bo know knife techniques?"

Su Chen felt that this old man seemed to have some ability, since the other party was so painstakingly analyzing for him, he should accept the advice and listen to the advice of others to eat enough.

"I understand!" Hu Bo nodded slightly, and said to him: "You go out in the morning to choose a light knife in your hand, and then I will give you the knife technique, and after practicing a little heat, then change the weight, gradually deepen the weight of the knife, and increase the arm strength and strength." ”

Su Chen nodded, and he also paid attention to it in his heart.

This time, I have someone by my side to personally guide the martial arts, and I have to learn more diligently, maybe I can really use it in the future, and I will no longer be a scholar who has no power to restrain the chicken!

Why don't the men take Wu Hook and collect Guanshan Fifty Prefectures. Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis?

The Tang Dynasty was prosperous, and the atmosphere was magnificent, and all hot-blooded men, even if they were scholars, were eager to carry swords and weapons, to be able to make meritorious contributions, to go to the battlefield, to scold Fang Xuan.

And the scholars after the fifth generation, especially the comfortable Southern Tang scholars, were a little weaker, and they were drunk and dreamed of death, and even began to look down on martial arts, let alone consider galloping on the battlefield.

After breakfast, Su Chen went to the blacksmith shop in the morning to choose a knife, a light knife weighing about two catties.

When he traveled, he was followed by a family guard to protect his safety, hugging him back and forth, Su Chen suddenly felt like a powerful son.

After returning to Su's house, Hu Bo handed him a book of knife books.

Su Chen's eyes lit up, he opened the worn and worn cover, and saw that there was no name of the knife technique in it, it was directly some hand-painted villains, dancing with the name of each move.

"Doesn't this knife have a name? For example, names such as the Blood Drinking Knife Method, the Overlord Sword Technique, and the Demon Suppression Knife Method? ”

Hu Zhongxian shook his head and said: "Young man, you think too much, how can there be so many strange names, what the green forests and rivers and lakes have, are only the Liuhe Knife Method, the Liangyi Knife Method, the Five Tiger Knife Method, and the Kou Family Knife Method, I have never heard of the strange words of demon subjugation, overlord knife, and blood drink." I taught you this sword technique, which I practiced when I was young, and it is a kind of knife technique that is passed down from my family, and no one in the world has known it for a long time. ”

"Hu Family Knife Technique!" Su Chen was slightly surprised, always feeling weird.

Hu Zhongxian's voice was soft and a little hoarse, and explained: "This set of knife techniques is exquisite, rigid and soft, not completely with force, it seems that there is also a way of yin and yang, there is yin and yang, the knife is fierce or fierce, or feminine, know how to exert strength, but also know how to contain strength." ”

"I understand, powerful martial arts must be both rigid and soft, in line with the way of yin and yang, mysterious and mysterious!" Su Chen had heard these mysteries through martial arts, so he was not surprised at all.

Hu Zhongxian sighed: "There are only moves on this set of knife books, but there is no method to exhale strength and absorb qi with it, even if others can go, they can't practice the essence, I will teach you a mantra today, you memorize it carefully, and don't pass it on." ”

Su Chen nodded when he heard this, guessing that this mantra should be similar to a unique mental method or something, without it, the knife score is all moves, no matter how many times you practice the routine, it will not have much lethality, and it can only be used for knife dance performances.

He couldn't help but think that those martial arts routines in later generations were all passed down in ancient times, but those martial arts athletes in later generations practiced the routines for several years or more than ten years, and their combat effectiveness was so mediocre, and their performances were okay. Perhaps it is because in the martial arts routine, the method of nourishing strength and exhaling with it has long been lost.

Next, Hu Zhongxian began to instruct Su Chen to hold the knife posture, including the top of the head, the chin is introverted, the waist and spine are straight, the shoulders are heavy, the elbows are dropped, the hips are shrunk, the knees are slightly buckled, the heels are supported outward, and the five fingers of the feet are gripped......

"Is it such a complicated stance?" Su Chen put a question mark in his heart, and every detail was pointed out by Hu Bo.

Hu Zhongxian saw his disapproving face and explained: "Standing in the wrong posture, the muscles and bones and joints in the body will suffer impact and destruction when you exert your strength. Stand up decently, get twice the result with half the effort! ”

"Understood." Su Chen secretly made a note, then held the knife in both hands, began to breathe and hold his breath, and began to split the knife according to the Hu family's knife technique.

The small wooden stake erected on the stump, with a soft click, was struck by the knife, but instead of splitting directly, it got stuck in the middle.

"Not enough strength!" Hu Bo snorted coldly and said: "Arm strength, waist strength, and wrist strength must burst out at the same time, and the mind must also be highly concentrated." ”

When Su Chen heard this, after holding his breath and concentrating, he swung the knife again.

"Click!"

This time, the new small stake was split in half, and his knife fell on the stump below.

"The force is only seven points, and finally split the stake, the tip of the knife can not completely contact the cushion below, and it is necessary to leave three inches in order to control its own strength and achieve the balance of the Hu family's knife technique."

Su Chen nodded and continued to try, but every time, either he split the stake to the end, or he was not strong enough to split the stake, so he practiced and tried repeatedly.

He set a plan for himself, that is, 300 knives in the morning and 300 knives in the evening, as a daily basic skill, and then cooperate with the knife routine, and strive to master this practical knife technique as soon as possible.
