Chapter Twenty-Six: Teaching Ziyang to Practice Tai Chi
Ziyang Zhenren looked at Xiao Shiyi Lang again and said, "Why are you so weak?" Speaking of which, Poor Dao also has a bit of a relationship with your Xiao family, so I will pass on a set of methods for strengthening your body, and I can't say that my nephew will need your help in the future. ”
How to strengthen your body? Could it be that Tai Chi is now in place? Liu Hao hurriedly asked the old guy, "Uncle Shi is talking about Tai Chi?" ”
After hearing this, the old guy shook his head and said, "It's just a five-bird play, huh? What is Tai Chi? Do you kid? ”
Depend on! That's the right question. When I was in college, there was a course taught by an old professor who had retired and been rehired, and Liu Hao was not allowed to pass at the end of the term.
By chance, Liu Hao saw that he always went to Tai Chi alone in the morning, and with a set of almost thoughts, Liu Hao got up early every day and followed the old professor to learn Tai Chi. After a long time, the two have become New Year's friends, and as for the hanging course, it will naturally be canceled.
Liu Hao led everyone to the open space in the backyard, raised his hand to make a Taijiquan starting pose, and kept chanting the Taijiquan boxing scriptures in his mouth:
Indulgence and bending and stretching people don't know, and I rely on all entanglements.
Splitting and pushing progress is made, and it is difficult to beat the cross-mining.
The hook is forced to attract everyone, and who knows?
Feint to lose and deceive whoever loses, and lure back to victory.
······
When he was getting strong, the old guy suddenly let out a long howl, jumped to the opposite side of Liu Hao and attacked him with Tai Chi, at first Liu Hao could still be retracted and released freely, but the old pervert is not a person who can use common sense, and after a while, he figured out the way, Liu Hao gradually changed from attack to defense, and the old guy just grasped the essence of Tai Chi, pressing step by step.
In his previous life, Liu Hao just learned Taijiquan a little bit, and the confrontation with others was also like a performance, where is this old perverted opponent who has been immersed in martial arts for more than 100 years, seeing that he is getting happier and happier, Liu Hao hurriedly jumped out of the circle, in case his uncle discounted his legs, where can Lao Tzu reason?
Without Liu Hao's interference, the old guy pulled out the long sword on his waist, and used the artistic conception of Taijiquan in swordsmanship, and for a while the whole yard flew sand and stones, and the old guy couldn't be seen in the sword light, until the old guy shouted violently, and a big stone placed in the yard collapsed, and Ziyang Zhenren's madness came to an end.
The surrounding people were covered with stone chips, but one or two of them stood motionless like sculptures placed on the pedestrian street. The old guy posed in the shape of the last sword splitting the boulder, and the wind was a mess. After a long time, the old guy sighed: "This method, if it is really my Taoist treasure, every move and style contains Taoist wisdom, once practiced, the yin and yang qi in the body will be automatically reconciled, and after long-term practice, it can be said that it is not an exaggeration to be immersed in all diseases." ”
"Grandpa Daoist, why is Brother Hao slow to practice, but Grandpa Daoist is extremely fast? It's not the same at all. "The little chubby girl has a child's heart, but she sees the most essential thing.
The old guy put away his sword and touched the little chubby girl's head lovingly: "Little girl, your brother Hao practices like that to strengthen his body, and he is so slow to cooperate with his breathing to achieve the purpose of harmonizing yin and yang, and the poor road is to fight and kill the enemy, of course, it can be fast or slow, and it can only win by surprise." ”
Then the old guy looked at the eagerness of everyone and said loudly: "Don't worry, when the poor Dao improves this method, it will definitely be passed on to you, this method is a treasure of my Taoism, and it is better to remove some methods of killing the enemy." ”
Everyone replied very understandingly: "The old fairy is slowly refining, I am not in a hurry." ”
Ziyang Zhenren pulled Liu Hao into the room and complained in a low voice: "Since you kid knows this method, why didn't you tell me as soon as possible?" If this Dharma is preached······"
Ancient people liked to hide everything, which is also the reason why many technologies and cultures have been lost. Liu Hao smiled and said to the old guy: "Uncle Shi, do you know how the kid learned this boxing?" ”
"Could it be that it wasn't passed down by my senior brother?" The old guy was a little confused.
"In later generations, there were people practicing everywhere in the streets and alleys, and not everyone would practice this method to the realm of the uncle. People learn, mainly to strengthen the body, so as to achieve physical and mental peace. Uncle Shi, just imagine, if everyone in the Tang Dynasty practices Tai Chi, how can there be a place for that group of bald donkeys in the world? Moreover, this method makes people quiet, but it does not make people decadent, which is beneficial to my Datang and harmless. ”
Liu Hao said his thoughts one by one, anyway, in the old guy's place, he didn't need to pretend to be anything.
Listening to Liu Hao's words, the old guy sighed: "My Taoist family is prosperous, or this Taijiquan." This time I went west, I had to visit a few old guys who didn't care about the world, and I could protect you in the future. ”
Ziyang Zhenren thinks about Liu Hao everywhere, and it is false to say that he is not moved, if it is not him, if he wants to come with the personality of Ziyang Zhenren, he will not be able to bird those powerful people, how good it is to be at ease alone.
Thinking of this, Liu Hao knelt down on his knees and kowtowed solemnly to the Ziyang Daoist: "Uncle Shi's kindness to me, Zhicai will not dare to forget it for the rest of his life, if there is anything difficult to do in the future, Uncle Shi will not be tied up for me." In the past three or five years, I will also look for a way out, and my uncle will not walk again in the future, and stay to live in his old age, so that I can do my filial piety a little. ”
The old guy's eyes were a little moist, and he pulled Liu Hao up: "What nonsense is the bastard boy talking about, the old man is in good health." Besides, at such an age, I can do something for my brother's successor and my Datang, and I will have something to say when I see my brother in the future. As for the longevity, let's talk about it when you have a child, the old man is more than 100 years old and has not teased his grandson, and the old man lives here permanently, so the Li family boy may expand the Laojun Temple again, just leaving the poor road, which can be regarded as giving the Li family a face. ”
After everyone in the family left, Liu Hao took Liu San and the old guy to start making cement in the backyard.
Start with the proportions of the concrete of later generations. Then a vacant lot was selected around the flower pond in the backyard, and after Liu San held the stone and tamped it with water, the concrete was evenly spread out with a thickness of two inches.
At dawn the next day, Liu Hao was woken up by the old guy.
When I went out, Ziyang Zhenren and Liu San were walking around the concrete floor they made yesterday, and their mouths kept admiring. Liu Hao took a closer look and saw that the ground had solidified, so he casually splashed the washing water that Ling'er was taught, and the old guy asked puzzledly: "Zhicai, why is this?" Isn't it already condensed? ”
Liu Hao patiently popularized science for him: "The surface of this thing has dried, but in fact, the inside has not solidified, and it needs to be sprinkled regularly, so that the solidification is more thorough and stronger." In fact, if it is thicker, it is added to the iron bar made of steel, which is more strong and durable, and is used to build a city, as long as the thickness is four or five feet, even a siege vehicle cannot be smashed through. ”
The old guy smacked his tongue again and again when he heard this: "If this is according to what Zhicai said, if there are enough materials, a new city can be built in the border pass in a month." It's a great thing! Very good! ”
After breakfast, the porter came to tell Zhang that he was visiting.
Before Liu Hao and Ziyang Zhenren could go out, the famous minister of the Tang Dynasty entered the door laughing: "Ziyang Immortal, Liu Jialang, Zhang took the liberty to visit, it is really rude." ”
Liu Hao muttered in his heart when he heard this, Damn! Come on, why are you still talking about these vain words? If Lao Tzu really wants to kick you out, isn't he afraid that the old guy will regret not going to Chang'an?
But before Liu Hao could be polite to him, Ziyang Zhenren dragged Zhang Shuo to the backyard: "Zhang family boy, Poor Dao let you see a thing, this thing is of great benefit to Datang." Looking at Zhang Shuo, a weak little old man, being carried by the old guy in one hand, Liu Hao was really comfortable.
When Liu Hao walked to the backyard, Zhang Shuo was squatting on the concrete floor like a curious baby, laboriously picking the ground with his fingernails, seeing that there was no effect, he stood up and stomped a few feet hard, looking at his trembling demeanor Liu Hao was really worried that he twisted his waist.
After finishing, Zhang Shuo pulled the old guy and was very excited, and his voice turned into a broken voice: "Immortal Chang is saying that this thing was poured last night and became so hard this morning?" For my Datang, this thing can really be said to be an extra national treasure out of thin air. The trouble of the border can also be solved! After saying that, the old man actually began to cry.
After the persuasion of Liu Hao and Ziyang Zhenren, Zhang Shuo finally calmed down.
Coming to the front hall, Zhang Shuo took a sip of tea and said loudly: "Liu Jialang is really worthy of being the preacher in Yuan Guoshi's dream, and there is not much to say about cement, I heard all kinds of rumors about Zhicai from Luoyang colleagues last night, and the poetry, music, rhythm and calligraphy are all refined, and even Gewu is also ingenious, by the way, there is also yesterday's wine and burning knife, and the Ziyang Immortal Chief did not tell Yu in advance, which caused a certain drunken afternoon, but the taste is really memorable······"
It seems that Zhang Shuo is also a good drinker, and when he speaks, he can't help but stir, so he is the prime minister of a country, can he pay attention to his image? Liu Hao laughed a few times in his heart, stood up and said to him: "If there was no master to come to the rescue, I'm afraid I would have been a pile of dry bones now, and I would be very happy to be able to do a few things that benefit the country and the people." ”
"The Liu family is so intelligent, how can he be willing to be a businessman? Now is the time for the imperial court to employ people, why not take the test to gain fame in order to serve the imperial court? Zhang said very bitterly, like a pastor trying to persuade a lost lamb.
Ziyang Zhenren replied for Liu Hao: "Zhang family boy, my master has already taken care of this matter, you don't have to persuade again, now is not the time for this kid to enter the imperial court, he is still young, and his mind is undecided, if he is deceived by others and does something unwise, what kind of face does Poor Dao have to say goodbye to senior brother?" ”
