Chapter Forty-Eight: Teaching Art (Seeking Collection)
"Yes, it's nothing, but now ......"
As he spoke, he didn't see any movement in Ye Gan's hand, and a blade had already appeared between Ye Gan's fingers, so frightened that Luo Xing rubbed his eyes fiercely.
It's true, just now Ye Qian looked like he wasn't moving, but there was an inexplicable extra blade in his hand.
Looking at Luo Xing, who was surprised, Ye Qian smiled proudly and said: "Playing with blades, no matter which vein you steal the door, you have to practice, but our thrush one vein dares to claim to be the first of the four veins of the thief, and naturally there is a reason for it." ”
"Each thief has a special name for the blade, and we call it the beak in the thrush line, which means the guy who eats. No matter how well the blades of other thieves play, they are just holding a blade in each hand, and at most there is one in the mouth, but our thrush is different, in addition to the blade in the mouth, each hand can make three blades, which is qualified. ”
As he spoke, Ye Gan raised his hands lightly, and eight blades suddenly appeared between his ten fingers, which made Luo Xing stunned, but it was Luo Xing's blink of an eye, and the blades in Ye Gan's hands had disappeared again, no matter what angle Luo Xing looked at, he couldn't see the slightest trace of the blades.
"Do you want to learn?"
Ye Qian felt that he was smiling like an old fox.
Luo Xing nodded again and again, and said excitedly: "I want to learn!" I really want to learn! But Master, what does this have to do with protecting my grandfather? ”
Hearing Luo Xing's question, Ye Qian didn't speak, turned around and waved his hand on the wall.
There was originally a handicraft bamboo slip hanging on the wall, which was scratched by Ye Gan like this, and he couldn't see anything at first, but as Ye Gan blew lightly on it, the bamboo slip suddenly fell apart, and the fracture was extremely smooth, as if he was holding a hacksaw and carefully rubbing it with a rag and then carefully wiping it again.
Looking at the stunned Luo Xing, Ye Qian smiled slightly and said: "Now is a society under the rule of law, you can easily be found when you go out with a gun and a knife, and if you are caught by the police, you will inevitably have to go to the bureau." But the blade is different, this thing is lightweight, easy to carry, and if used well, it can make people lose their combat effectiveness and even kill people. ”
Ye Qian asked again: "Do you want to learn?" ”
Luo Xing's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to say, "I think!" ”
In summer, it dawns early, but at five o'clock, the sky is already bright in Jiangcheng, Luo Xing bought breakfast, first ate it with Ye Qian, and then started the day's homework.
Ye Gan's homework for Luo Xing was very tight.
Every morning at five o'clock, I play a set of five bird plays, which takes two hours, and then I start to eat, and after eating, I run around the city for a long time, which is almost another two hours. After returning two hours, I started to practice my eyesight and accuracy, and this is the third two hours, and I can't rest until noon.
Then the whole afternoon is free time, and after dinner at five o'clock in the evening, there is another set of five bird plays, and then continue to run around the city for two hours, and finally come back to practice the sensitivity of the hands.
This kind of training may seem easy, but it is actually boring, monotonous and tedious, and most importantly, during this time, you can do without the blade in your mouth, but you must carry the remaining two blades with you.
The purpose of this plan is to let Luo Xing become familiar with the blade as soon as possible, so that the blade can be integrated with him. Every thief has a similar training method, and when he is proficient, he is just like Ye Qian is now, with two blades in his mouth, which does not hinder eating, drinking, talking, and gargling his mouth, and he will reach the blade as soon as he reaches out, and he will not scratch himself at all.
There is a lot of physical training in the whole training plan, and the training of the five poultry operas is to accumulate Luo Xing's energy.
Wufowl Opera is a traditional Chinese medicine method of health preservation, and it is also one of the origins of the ancient Chinese boxing method, which imitates the form, movement and posture of the five animals of tiger, deer, bear, ape and bird to achieve the effect of strengthening the body and increasing energy.
The five poultry operas passed on by Ye Qian to Luo Xing have been improved by the thrush over the generations, and they can increase their energy even more, which is the secret of the thrush.
And the subsequent long-distance running, is to let Luo Xing have enough physical strength and endurance, but also to exercise the muscles of the whole body, through the long-distance running exercise, there will be no particularly obvious muscles on the body, but the strength is large, the physical strength is enough, and the body shape is very good-looking, belonging to the typical type of thinning and undressing.
As for why Luo Xing should be allowed to train his physical strength, there is a lot of attention to this.
The world calls the thief in the door, it is nothing more than a "thief" word, but the real inheritance of the thief and the street thief can be said to be a world of difference, such as Ju Wuyi, who has fallen to the point of relying on apprentices to form a gang to open a family bag, is the most despicable behavior of the thief.
Therefore, Ye Qian did not reveal his identity at all in front of Ju Wuyi, but only used a trumped-up origin to prevaricate the past.
The real thieves have always been high and high, robbing the rich and helping the poor, not the kind of robbing others to help their own poor, but really stealing things from those high-gate compounds that are not benevolent to the rich, and then distributing them to the poor.
And in order to ensure their own safety, the people in the thief never make a name for themselves, from this point of view, Ju Wuyi's comment on Yanzi Li San is not wrong at all, it is Yanzi Li San who not only wants to steal but also to become famous, which makes the thief slump since the Republic of China.
The traditional burglar is closer to the Ranger, but it is more agile and professional, and the burglar is easy not to cause death.
But since it is said that it is not to provoke people's lives, and it is necessary to walk on the rivers and lakes, the person who steals the door must have a strong escape ability, have a horse to ride a horse, and when there is no horse, nothing can compare to a pair of good legs, a good physical strength, and climb the mountains and mountains like walking on the flat ground, so as to be able to turn danger into a disaster again and again.
In addition, people in the door of thieves enter the high door to steal, in fact, they rarely steal any rare antiques, because that thing is not easy to deal with, it is difficult to shoot, unless there is a special way, otherwise the real thief will not touch those things at all.
Generally, stealing from the door is to steal gold and silver ingots and gold and silver buns, these things are of high value, easy to sell, as long as you find a familiar blacksmith to melt and re-cast, you can shoot cleanly.
Gold and silver are valuable, but they are also heavy, and gold is especially heavier than silver.
In ancient times, sixteen taels were a catty, and at that time a catty was roughly equivalent to six hundred grams now, and there was a rule of iron in the door of the thief, and no more thieves could be stolen, that is, they would not steal people who had stolen it, what was stolen? If you take someone's belongings and climb out of the courtyard wall, you can count it as stealing.
Therefore, in order to steal as much money as possible at one time, good physical strength is essential, and it is said that the most powerful thief was able to carry 1,500 taels of silver out of the wall alone, and he has not been caught.
Don't think that this thousand five hundred taels is a small amount, let's put it this way, in the Ming Dynasty, when you were an official of the dynasty, the official salary for a year was about one hundred and eighty taels of silver.
Silver in ancient China when the least value is about one tael of silver for a thousand copper coins, when it is worth two copper coins can be exchanged for two thousand copper coins, if grain as the unit of pricing, then the purchasing power of a penny copper coin is roughly equivalent to about three to five cents now, in other words, a tael of silver is worth at least three hundred yuan, and its general price is fluctuating between three hundred yuan and one thousand yuan.
Don't look at the current novels or TV series in which the rich man who comes out of any place can casually take out tens of thousands of taels, that is pure nonsense, in ancient times, a large shop, such as a pharmacy, taking the most famous Tongrentang in Beijing as an example, in the Republic of China, the net profit per day was only 30 to 50 oceans, and an ocean was exactly one or two silver.
In other words, Tong Ren Tang, a well-known time-honored brand, has a net profit of only 10,000 taels a year.
Stealing 1,500 taels at a time is roughly equivalent to stealing more than 5 million yuan at a time, and this is still based on grain, the actual value is much higher than this, even in ancient times, even when the price of silver was the lowest, a family of five in the city had 30 taels of silver enough to live extremely nourishing.
In the Republic of China, it only took a thousand oceans to build a textile factory.
And exercise good physical strength, people's spirit will be more vigorous, the mind will be more sober, the most taboo in the door is greed, other lines when a "greed" word cover head may be a loss of money, but once the door is greedy, then often the end is death.
Speaking of which, the author also has to say a digression, that is, everyone must not make decisions easily in the middle of the night, because late at night is when everyone is physically weak and tired, and the decisions made at this time are often irrational, and it is the same as drinking too much.
Back to the topic, here Luo Xing is practicing morning exercises, Ye Gan is holding a wicker to supervise on the side, correcting Luo Xing's mistakes in movements, the five bird plays are not a style of play, but a boxing fight, or a routine, this kind of long spirit, long physical strength boxing is the most taboo is to practice indiscriminately.
There are many people who learn martial arts on a whim, learn the character patterns in the book or buy a so-called martial arts book to learn by themselves, how many people stop at the Zama step, you must know that just Zama Bu, different schools have different teachings and practices, and most self-taught people are dead horses.
What is a dead horse?
It is to squat on the ground, like squatting on the toilet, the legs and feet do not move, and the stiffness is very strong, so the probability of practicing physical strength and stability is not large, but there is a high probability of lumbar muscle strain or ligament or knee injury.
This is the case with the simplest horse steps, let alone a fist fight that mobilizes qi and blood? There has never been a shortage of examples in history of boxers who did not stand up well and stood up for themselves.
For example, the bear in the Five Birds play is required to stand still, with his legs open and his hands hugging him, just like a blind bear hugging a tree, and his neck should be erected, and his head should be shaken like a bird to look into the distance.
But don't follow what this book says, because the description is just a description, and if you are interested in learning martial arts, you must find a reliable master.
Of course, the reputation of traditional martial arts is too bad now, because this circle has been solidified and lacks actual combat, but the truth of health preservation and physical exercise is still there, so if you want to learn how to fight, boxing, taekwondo and judo come quickly, and maintain physical strength, or traditional martial arts are better.
And there is also a key point in practicing physical strength, increase strength, don't look at Ye Qian just now with a blade to chop the bamboo slips at once, the skill and proportion are important, and the sharpness of the blade is also indispensable, but the most important root is still strength, and when the strength arrives, there is enough leisure to use skills.
This is the same as Taijiquan, Taijiquan pays attention to four or two thousand catties, but first you have to have a thousand catties of heritage, otherwise what to stop?
In the national arts of the Republic of China, those who practiced Tai Chi usually looked gentle and elegant, but they used various instruments to practice strength behind their backs and practiced fiercely more fiercely than anyone else.
In this way, Ye Qian was reasoning with Luo Xing while correcting Luo Xing's mistakes in action, it was summer now, the wicker was green, and soon Luo Xing's body was covered with green traces.
