Volume 1 Urban Battle Clouds Chapter 2 Kung Fu Master Section 1 Shangqi

"His name is Fu Xifeng, he didn't lie to you... I know it's a bit weird. Liu Zheng said helplessly, "But I didn't make it up, it was said by his father Fu Shenzhou, you know Fu Shenzhou, right?" ”

After coming out of the hospital, Fu Shenzhou provided Liu Zheng with an address, which could not be found on the map, only indicating that it was in a fishing village near a lake in southern Hunan, and it took Liu Zheng more than half a month to finally reach his destination.

Xiangnan, since ancient times, has been a place where the people are strong, and it is said that "there is no army without Hunan", which is not wrong at all. For example, just now he just wanted to ask for directions, but he was surrounded by this group of boatmen.

Seeing that this group of big men looked vigilant, each holding an oar, Liu Zheng had never experienced this kind of scene, inexplicable. He took out a piece of paper from his pocket, read the address written on it again, and finally spread his hands and said: "I took a plane from Qiantang to Changsha, then took a green train, then a long-distance bus, then two buses, and finally rented a tricycle to run to your place." The address is this address, the name is this name, it doesn't matter if you don't tell me, I can ask again in the neighborhood. ”

The boatmen exchanged heads, and then a person who looked like the boss of the boat came out of the crowd and said to Liu Zheng: "Our Mo person here is called Fu Xifeng, you hurry up!" ”

It's very suspicious to say this, I'm just asking for directions, you are like thieves, and you will drive me away if you don't agree with me, if you don't hide some secret, then it's strange.

Liu Zheng wanted to speak again, but a boatman next to him urged impatiently and angrily, and put his oar on his shoulder. Liu Zheng is not a mud bodhisattva, he has traveled thousands of miles to get here, he has spent a lot of energy and financial resources, and people have not seen it, not to mention that a group of roadblocks have come out, when I am so bullied? He grabbed the oar, wrestled left and right with both hands, pumped and sent, and pushed the boatman to a butt pier.

This time it was a hornet's nest, and when the boss of the boat saw that his brother was put down with one move, he knew that the person who came was not an ordinary person, and he shouted: "Array!" The boatmen all around echoed in unison, and the oars struck several times on the ground, and some of them went forward and some of them retreated, forming two circles according to the number of ninety-nine, and then slowly rotating in a counterclockwise direction.

What's the situation, Liu Zheng is bitter, who did I recruit to provoke who...!

Before the words of the explanation could be spoken, two oars on the left and right sides hit him, Liu Zheng hurriedly stretched out his arms to resist, and the corner of his eye swept to two more oars attacking him, he hurriedly jumped up and dodged, and his back was immediately smacked, he just wanted to look back, the oars that hit his shoulder arrived again, and he could only dodge. After a few moves, he took care of one thing and lost the other, and he was hit several times in a row, and it hurt hotly. Liu Zheng resisted, roared, and rushed in one direction regardless of it, hoping to be the first to open a gap, but he didn't want the boatmen to walk like flying, the enemy advanced and retreated, and the formation followed the people, always surrounding him in the middle, and it was not feasible to break through at his own speed.

Eighteen people, eighteen oars, the stick formation is like a rock, even if Liu Zheng tried his best, the number of hits is still increasing, fortunately Liu Zheng has internal force to protect the body, and this group of boatmen has no intention of hurting people's lives, and the attack points are basically in non-critical positions such as the back and legs, otherwise he can still please him.

The stick shadow was longing, Liu Zheng blocked left and right, his arms were numb from pain, and he gradually lost the strength to parry. At this time, he was hit with two sticks on his calf, and he couldn't get up when his legs were weak, and he secretly complained in his heart, it's over, this group of people cooperate so tacitly, it is obviously the result of long-term practice, if they detain me, who will I go to if I am not familiar with this life, old man, you can kill me!

At this time, a long cry was heard, "Stop-", and the sound source flew from far to near, and when the boatmen heard this shout, they put away their oars, and the formation immediately dispersed. I saw a short old man parting the crowd and walking in front of Liu Zheng, this old man is about 70 years old, his appearance is not amazing, his hair and beard are all white, but he is meticulously combed, and he is still wearing a cotton jacket in the summer, with his hands in his sleeves. The old man looked at Liu Zheng, who was sitting on the ground, for a while, and asked, "Young man, the old man's ears are not good and he doesn't hear clearly, who do you say you are looking for?" ”

"Looking for Fu Xifeng!" Liu Zheng replied angrily. If you want to do something, you always have to conflict first, and the person in charge will appear, a typical street fighting novel!

The old man motioned to the people next to him to help Liu Zheng up, pointed to the boatmen around him, and said to him: "These are people from the nearby townships, and they are also the guards of these ten miles and eight townships, and they are really sorry to hurt the distinguished guests." Then the old man bent down and saluted: "This is really a big flood that has washed the Dragon King Temple, and your own people have beaten your own people!" ”

How could Liu Zheng let an old man salute him, and hurriedly dodged away, saying that he didn't mind. In fact, he had already scolded this group of people one by one in his heart.

The old man looked around at these foolish boatmen, and scolded in the tone of teaching the younger generation: "How many times has the old man said, don't swing a stick formation at every turn, now I almost injured the young master's guests, don't disperse quickly, stay here to be an eyesore!" The boatmen seemed to have a lot of respect for the old man, the boat boss stepped forward and apologized to Liu Zheng, and the others also expressed their apologies, and Liu Zheng could only return the salute one by one.

Under the watchful eyes of the boatmen, Liu Zheng and the old man got on a small boat, with the boat boss surnamed Sun at the helm, and slowly rowed towards the lake.

"Your guest is a friend of the master, right?" Along the way, Liu Zheng chatted with the old man, whose surname was Huang, and he was the housekeeper of the manor on the island. "I don't know if the master is in Hangzhou, and he lives well?"

Can it be good, the little nurse accompanies me every day, the red face is full of red light, and it is so moisturized!

Of course, Liu Zheng couldn't answer the old man like this, so he picked out some things and told him. Steward Huang listened to this, and actually shed tears, which made Liu Zheng very embarrassed. The old man rubbed the corners of his eyes and said with a smile: "The master has been away from home for 20 years, and after listening to the words of the distinguished guest, and then thinking back to the old days, he did not hold back under the surging heart, but made the distinguished guest smile." ”

"Mr. Huang, don't shout as a distinguished guest, my name is Liu Zheng, you can call me Xiao Liu." Liu Zheng comforted the old man a few words and asked, "I asked the group of boatmen for directions just now, why didn't they bring me over directly." Is there something wrong with what I said? ”

Steward Huang replied, "Yes, it's not right. Because the young master has changed his name, he is now called 'Zheng Shangqi', and the people around him call him 'Shangqi', the name Fu Xifeng has not been used for decades, of course they don't know. ”

Even if you change your name, you have to change your surname? Liu Zheng asked his doubts.

The old man said gloomily: "It's a long story, since the death of his wife, the master has been very disgusted with this family, and he entrusted the young master to the master of the Shaolin Temple, and he has never returned." The young master had great respect for Master Jeongjo, and because the master's common surname was Zheng, he changed his name privately. When the young master was 20 years old, Yicheng went down the mountain and returned to his ancestral home, and since then he has only walked the rivers and lakes under the name of Zheng Shangqi, and there are very few people who know the name "Fu Xifeng". ”

The old man is a little irresponsible~ Liu Zheng thought to himself, it seems that the relationship between the father and son must not be harmonious, I hope to hear his father's name, don't drive me out.

Listen to the introduction of the yellow housekeeper, this lake is called Jinyin Lake, the east half is the gold lake, the west half is the silver lake, the dividing line is a road sinking into the lake, according to legend, the water of the gold and silver lake will be on the night of the full moon, by the gravitational action of two different directions and reverse flow, then the road will appear for a short time.

There is an island in the middle of the lake, and the island is covered with huge trees, and the scenery is beautiful, and a house can be faintly seen among the green water and green mountains. The owner of the island, Shangqi, is a top martial arts master, since he returned to Xiangnan from the Shaolin Temple, more than a dozen local forces have been destroyed in a year, and the security of the province has improved a lot. The local state security department wanted to hire him, but the young man had no merit and only wanted to live in seclusion in his hometown.

Since ancient times, the Chinese people like to live by water, and there are several villages and towns near Jinyin Lake. Because of his affection, the fishermen who fished in this lake spontaneously assumed the responsibility of guarding the island, and Shangqi also reciprocated by teaching them a set of stick methods passed down from Shaolin Temple. This set of stick methods can be attacked, retreated, and defended, and can also be gathered to form a stick formation to meet the enemy, and the boatmen have an oar in their hands, which is just right to practice. The country man is sincere, and now he is even more loyal to Shangqi, and he can't wait to call himself a retainer. Usually, when the ferry business is in business, they will deliberately avoid the island in the middle of the lake and row the boat farther, and if anyone asks, they will say that it is private property and outsiders are not allowed to approach.

Today, Liu Zheng and the others are going to the island in the middle of the lake.

When he got closer, Liu Zheng saw the whole picture of this mansion. This is a typical Hunan style building, and you can see Huaqiao pavilions everywhere. The bluestone is the pier, the fir wood is the face, the tile is covered, the corridor is built, the bridge head is built with the pagoda bridge pavilion, the eaves overlap, the majestic and majestic.

Steward Huang took Liu Zheng through the corridors and houses, and the ancient furnishings made people wonder if they had already crossed over. The two of them walked around the road for a while and came to a garden.

There was a person in the garden who was practicing, and he could only see the back of a handsome man with fluttering clothes, and Steward Huang accompanied Liu Zheng to wait on the side when he saw this. can make the housekeeper so respectful, it seems that this is the young owner of the "Shangqi" Zheng Shangqi (Fu Xifeng).

Liu Zheng has never seen such strange martial arts, he has learned taekwondo, and his attacks are all based on waist kicks, staggered steps and punches. Shangqi practice is very different, the right foot is always in front, the fists are tucked at the waist, the right foot steps half a step out of the right fist, the left heel half a step out of the left fist. This set of martial arts is extremely powerful, every time Shangqi punches, the internal force around his body is propping up the practice clothes, and Liu Zheng can feel that the air around Shangqi is flowing rapidly with his moves. If you look closely, every step he takes, the distance is not bad at all, as if it has been measured.

Shangqi stepped back and forth on this set of footwork, and punched the chest of the practicing wooden man, only to hear a muffled thunderous explosion, and the wooden man who looked more than 200 pounds was beaten and spun up, and fell into the grass ten meters away, which shocked Liu Zheng so much that he couldn't close his mouth.

, this instantaneous explosive power can top a rocket! He seems to be just an ordinary person who knows martial arts, but he is so awesome? I don't know who is more powerful, him or Ding Luo.

Shangqi knocked the wooden man away, and he didn't continue to practice, raised his head and took a long breath, and his stomach reverberated like a deep tiger roar. He stood for a moment, then looked back at the two of them.

Only then did Liu Zheng see the true face of Shangqi, he looked very young, only twenty-three or four years old, and his face was indeed somewhat similar to Fu Shenzhou, but it was more angular. What impressed Liu Zheng the most was Shangqi's eyes, which were very soft and had a transcendent smell of dust, which formed a strong contrast with the fast and fierce punches he had just used.

Liu Zheng was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to say hello. To the owner of the village, he was an uninvited guest, and he was introduced by his father. On the way, I heard Lao Sun say that Shangqi is a person who likes to be quiet, if he doesn't welcome himself, then this study trip will not be in vain?

Steward Huang stepped forward, and the two of them talked in their hometown dialect in a low voice, Liu Zheng showed a displeased expression when he saw Shangqi, but gradually disappeared. After a few minutes, the two ended their conversation and walked over to Liu Zheng.

Just when Liu Zheng thought that he was going to find a reason to reject him, he asked lightly: "Are you my father's person?" ”

Liu Zheng took out the address given to him by Fu Shenzhou from his pocket, and indicated his identity and intention. There was only Fu Shenzhou's handwritten address on the paper, so Shangqi just glanced at it and handed it to the old housekeeper behind him, Steward Huang recognized the handwriting, nodded to Shangqi, and returned the paper to Liu Zheng. Although he verified his body, he didn't speak in a hurry, but just looked Liu Zheng up and down. That look was like a butcher looking at a slaughtered cow, and Liu Zheng's palms were sweating.

"You're from Qiantang? What's going on there. ”

Steward Huang kept glancing at Liu Zheng behind his back. Seeing that Shangqi did not open his mouth to refuse, Liu Zheng felt a little relieved, so he recounted the recent events to Shangqi, including the battle with the saber-toothed tiger, and the mutant invasion incident confirmed by the Hangzhou Special Group Office.

"There is such a thing!" Shangqi also frowned after hearing this, he was silent for a moment, and then said, "I didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore, but my master, Master Jeongjo, has said more than once that those who practice martial arts should act with righteousness, save with benevolence, help the world, and eliminate greed and robbery. If what you're saying is true, I can't just leave it alone, no matter what. He glanced back at Steward Huang and said, "My father, although he is a bastard, but I heard Lao Huang say that he is quite decent, since he told you about my existence, it means that you are trustworthy." ”

He saluted Liu Zheng slightly and said, "I heard Lao Huang say that you know some martial arts, dare to ask where you are from?" ”

Zhou Kai also asked this question when they met for the first time, and Liu Zheng explained it again helplessly, shook his head and sighed: "High-level martial arts, learning and using them are more difficult to comprehend than ordinary martial arts, so the teaching will use the technique of empowerment." If you really learn the legendary power of the dragon, you will only get half the result if you practice according to the dictated tricks. Alas... It seems that in the course of a thousand years of inheritance, there are still mistakes. ”

Liu Zheng was puzzled, what kind of empowerment and enema are mysterious, I practice by relying on my grandfather's words and deeds, isn't it good?

Shangqi didn't explain too much, stretched out a hand, and said to Liu Zheng: "Come, let's take a hand." Although Liu Zheng didn't understand what it meant, he still cooperated and stretched out his hand.

When the two hands were clasped together, Liu Zheng felt that an internal force in the palm of Shangqi's hand rushed into his Lao Gong acupoint, and the internal force in his body surged, spontaneously resisting this external qi. only heard a soft sound of "poof", Liu Zheng's hand did not move at all, and his breathed hand was bounced away.

Shangqi supported his five fingers, dissolved the residual strength, and exclaimed: "Your internal strength is much higher than I imagined, I have practiced Shaolin internal strength for many years, and the bone search and acupuncture points are invincible, and you are the first to successfully resist!" It's really a magical internal skill, my father said that it was the power of the dragon, I haven't seen it, but maybe my master knows. Then he changed his tone and added, "There is an obvious mistake in the way you use your internal force. I also heard Lao Huang say that you were on the shore and were defeated after only holding out for less than 5 minutes, which shows that your martial arts skills also need to be honed. You used to work behind closed doors, and now I can teach you. ”

Shangqi motioned for Liu Zheng to follow him, and the two passed through the two moon gates and arrived in front of a side room in the inner courtyard. It is said to be a partial room, but the location is a little off, in fact, it is a tall independent building, push open the heavy birch door, only to see the wide hall full of bookshelves, a stack of thread-bound books neatly arranged.

"Did you bring the Shaolin Temple's Scripture Pavilion here?" Liu Zheng was surprised, he looked around, there must be thousands of books.

Shangqi walked inside first, and said as he walked: "This is just a drop in the bucket of the total number of books in the temple's Scripture Pavilion. He took out a scripture book, stroked the cover with his hand, and said leisurely: "Why are they here, because all the scripture secret books are copied by hand by me." ”

Liu Zheng touched this book and flipped through that one, it was not a novelty, but he didn't expect it to be all written down by him! This brother's childhood in Shaolin Temple didn't seem to be very good.

At this time, he saw the book in Shangqi's hand clearly, and there were three big characters: "Yijin Sutra"!

"Easy... Yi..."Liu Zheng was speechless for a long time, "Yi Jing tendons!" Is this the legendary Divine Gong Yijin Sutra? ”

"Haha." Shangqi laughed out loud in a rare voice: "You are all misled by the TV show. In fact, the so-called Yijin Sutra is just a basic yoga technique, and laymen can learn to strengthen their bodies, which is not helpful for improving martial arts. He handed the Yi Jin Jing to Liu Zheng casually and walked to the other bookshelves.

Liu Zheng flipped through the Yijin Sutra, and each page was painted with a portrait of a monk with a naked body, posing in various poses, coupled with obscure sentences, he couldn't understand anything, so he stuffed the book back into the shelf.

Shangqi greeted him on a bookshelf not far away, and when Liu Zheng walked up, Shangqi handed him a booklet in his hand, only to see that the title page read "Dragon Claw Gong". Shangqi explained on the side: "This is the dragon claw hand in the Shaolin 72 stunts, and it is currently the most suitable kung fu for you to learn at this stage." ”

This booklet is not thick, Liu Zheng quickly finished it, and wondered: "Is this martial art good, the content is so small, and it is not as thick as your Yijin Sutra." You only teach me one of the seventy-two courses, will it not be enough? ”

Shangqi was no longer surprised by Liu Zheng's lack of martial arts knowledge, he shook his head and said: "Don't underestimate the dragon claw hand, although this martial arts has not changed many moves, it is easy to learn, and the entry is fast, especially for people with a solid foundation in internal skills, a little achievement can exert amazing power." His age is obviously younger than Liu Zheng, but the words he said were old-fashioned, "You are 27 years old this year, and the bone seams have all been closed." I have observed your physical condition, but fortunately, you use your internal strength to temper your body every day, and your body and fascia are much stronger than ordinary people. With your current comprehension of martial arts, directly starting from the most profound martial arts, the efficiency is very low, and the learning is only rough, far less effective than practicing dragon claw hands. ”

Liu Zheng chooses to believe in the vision of experts. The two of them went out, and Steward Huang was still dutifully waiting outside.

Shangqi turned back to Liu Zheng and said, "You have a tired journey today, and you are still fighting with people by the lake, so rest early!" Starting tomorrow, Lao Huang will teach you the martial art of dragon claw hand. ”

Could it be that this old man who is over the age of ten is also a master? Liu Zheng looked at Steward Huang, the old man smiled and bowed to him slightly, and had no objection to this decision.

After Shangqi left, Liu Zheng followed Steward Huang to the residence, only to learn that there were not only these old and young people on the island, but also several aunts who were in charge of sprinkling and cooking rice, all from surrounding villages and towns. This mansion is very large, with dozens of rooms, and Liu Zheng found one to live in.

It was night, Liu Zheng slept with the novelty and expectation of learning martial arts, and in his dream he became a hero who walked on the wall, and won the favor of peerless beauties, that is... Why is this beauty wearing ice skates?
