"Is this "Yiwu" an external practice or an internal practice?"

"Of course, there are both internal and external exercises, but although I know the internal cultivation method of "Yi Wu", I have not practiced it, and I will teach you after I understand it in detail. After all, I am still small and flexible over the years, and I usually compete with others, using the moves of "Yi Wu". ”

"Okay, you're saying that you'll teach me the method of external practice of "Yi Wu" today?"

"Not bad. Sister, have you read the Book of Changes? ”

Chen Yuan looked at Hua Xue like an idiot: "Even if I read it, I'm not a Hongru, can I understand it?" ”

Hua Xue nodded: "There are a lot of things in it, I can't understand it." In particular, if I Ching is seen as a whole, I can hardly understand it. But if I look at each sentence separately, I can still figure out most of it. Fortunately, Mr. said that "Yi Wu" is only the concept of "I Ching", and it can be practiced without understanding the Book of Changes, after all, there are few people who can really fully understand the "Book of Changes" throughout the ages. ”

"Then you ask me if I've seen it?"

"I want to know my sister's foundation, so I decided where to start."

"Isn't it okay to imitate the movements?"

"I spread my legs and raised my hands high, can you really tell how far my legs are and how high my hands are?"

"Yes, if you just imitate it, you may be able to resemble it, but the details can't be the same."

"First of all, tell my sister about the gossip direction."

"I seem to have heard people say that gossip corresponds to all directions?"

"No, no, no, you're talking about the ordinary gossip direction, and it has nothing to do with the direction of Yi Wu I'm talking about."

"Okay, you can say it."

"Because the hand we commonly use is the right hand, in "Yi Wu", we take the right as the positive and the yang. Bagua has three lines, each of which is divided into yin and yang. The first line represents the left and right, the left is yin, and the right is yang; The second line represents the front and back, the back is yin, and the front is yang; The third line represents the upper and lower, the lower is yin, and the upper is yang. In this way, from our own point of view, Zhou Tian's orientation is all in it. The upper right front is dry, the upper left front is dui, the lower right front is Xun, and the lower left front is Kan; Correspondingly, the lower left is Kun, the lower right is Gen, the upper left is Zhen, and the upper right is Li. ”

"No, where am I in myself?"

"Just a hexagram, add zero, zero, zero, and you're good to go."

"What about you?"

"I'm in front of you, the front is the second Yang, so for the front of the four hexagrams to add zero to zero, if you want to describe the direction more accurately, you have to determine the unit of distance, for the convenience of description, we usually use the common distance unit as the standard to determine the number, and for the convenience of shouting, each number does not exceed ten, far from ten, we default to outside the attack range, all use ten. With the mobility of the human body, it is difficult to exert force at a distance of less than an inch, and it is difficult to reach a distance greater than a zhang, so it is usually used to describe the distance of force in inches, and a ruler is used to measure the distance of position, so I am three feet in front of you, and you use 'dry zero three zero' to describe the best. ”

"I'm still not used to it."

"Of course, you've only just learned about this, so what are you used to? It's good to wait until you practice a little more. ”

"Isn't it usually just about knowing the front and back? What is the use of these two directions? ”

"When fighting, for the sake of our own stability and strength, we try to avoid jumping, so we need to be in this position when we jump and hit us, or throw heavy objects. And there are also some ways to focus on the enemy's lower plate, so it is also necessary to play this position. In fact, this method of describing the direction was comprehended by Yang Minggong on the battlefield. In a duel on the plains, although it is rare to have to worry about going up and down, but when attacking and defending the city, as well as water battles, the orientation of the plane is not enough. ”

"And when I turn around and bend over, where is the front?"

"Actually, you yourself know where the front is, if you don't believe it, you act at will, and then ask yourself where the front is, and you yourself have the answer. People will not be able to distinguish between the east and the west, but as long as they are conscious, they will always have the concept of front and back, left and right. Those who make a mistake in distinguishing left and right are not unable to distinguish between left and right, but that direction in their consciousness is not called 'left and right'. ”

After teaching the basic theory, Hua Xue demonstrated the basic movements, based on the 64 hexagrams of Zhou Yi, exactly 64 movements, respectively, according to the difference of the main hexagram composed of the middle and lower three hexagrams of the six lines, divided into eight groups, each group of eight actions, and the actions correspond to the hexagram one by one. Hua Xue plans to teach Chen Yuan eight movements every day, as long as she remembers that Chen Yuan has time to practice during the day.

Today's first teaching is to take the Qiangua as the main hexagram of the eight movements, the action is very simple, one hexagram six hexagrams, each hexagram from top to bottom, corresponding: whether the left arm is open, whether the body is upright, whether the right arm is open, whether the left leg is bent, whether the legs are separated, whether the right leg is bent.

Therefore, the hexagram is for the upper and lower of the Qian, and the six lines are all yes, and the corresponding action is to open the arms, the body is upright, the legs are apart, and the knees are bent, in other words, the arms are spread and the horse is stepped. By analogy, the eight movements of the Qiangua as the main hexagram taught today are all completed by moving the upper limbs and torso on the basis of horse steps.

Chen Yuan was puzzled: "I stretch my hands straight, stretching forward and lifting upwards are two different movements, right?" ”

"yes. So these sixty-four movements are just the basics, and it doesn't say that there are only these sixty-four movements. These 64 movements are the static exercises in the exercises, which are actually to exercise one's ability to find balance. The structure of the human body is roughly the same, but there are still great differences in the subdivision of individuals, some people have long legs, and some people have short arms. So when everyone is zamabu, it's not exactly the same action. You need to keep yourself from falling according to your physical condition and on the premise of completing the action. ”

Hua Xue stepped off the horse, stretched her arms, slowly adjusted all angles, and demonstrated to Chen Yuan: "You see, the more your arms are stretched forward, the less likely it is for people to fall backwards, and I can squat a little lower." If my arms were stretched back, I wouldn't dare to squat too far. In the beginning, I didn't ask you to squat, only one requirement, that is, to keep your body upright and not lean forward and backward. ”

Chen Yuan imitated Hua Xue's movements, she practiced dancing since she was a child, and her sense of balance was very good, and she imitated it like a look.

Hua Xue slightly pointed her to the doorway to adjust her center of gravity, corrected some subtle problems, and this action was learned.

Next, Hua Xue explained and demonstrated to Chen Yuan as usual, and then Chen Yuan imitated and Hua Xue corrected. Originally, this kind of kung fu teaching inevitably had skin to skin, but fortunately, the two have been familiar with each other for a long time and have long been accustomed to each other, so there is no red face and red ears due to hormonal reasons, which affects the teaching.
