Old man Pei Yuan, but the general of Zhenguo.

He is different from the ancestor of the Lu family, he is not a qi practitioner, but a physical cultivator. It's just that he pays attention to a health preservation, prolongs life, likes to do Tai Chi every day, and then goes to the office.

Now in this small courtyard, he looked at Xie Baoshu and said, "Taijiquan, and Taiji, how can it be the same thing." To understand this question, you first have to know what Tai Chi is. Xiaocha, tell me, what Tai Chi?"

Su Cha thought for a while and said, "The harmony of yin and yang is Tai Chi." ”

Pei Yuan nodded, and asked Xie Baoshu again, what is Tai Chi?

Xie Baoshu said: "The change of virtual and real is Tai Chi. ”

Pei Yuan frowned, no longer looked at Xie Baoshu, but said to himself: "Tai Chi is one, that is, one thing or one thing, one thing or one thing, born from fate, and has two sides. The edge is Wuji, and Wuji gives birth to Taiji. Yin and yang are two, and two are the two sides of things, such as rigidity and softness, up and down, male and female, void head, cold and heat, manifestation, good and evil, movement and stillness, etc. Yin and Yang are abstract concepts, not concrete things, Yin and Yang, famous and invisible. ”

Xie Baoshu sighed, feeling a little unfair in his heart, because he felt that if he and Su Cha changed their words, this old man would still not take care of him. People were under the eaves and had to bow their heads, Xie Baoshu decided to listen carefully.

Pei Yuan said slowly: "Tai Chi is born without limit, the opportunity of movement and stillness, and the mother of yin and yang." If it moves, it is divided, and if it is still, it is combined. "Tai Chi is born without infinity, that is, one thing or one thing is born from karma. "Opportunity for movement", that is, the material that changes. "The mother of yin and yang", that is, the two sides of the contradiction. "If you move, you will be divided", that is, the opposition of contradictions. "Silence is unity", that is, the unity of contradictions. In today's words: a thing or a thing is born out of fate, it is the material of change, it has two sides of contradiction, and the two sides of contradiction are both opposites and unified. ”

Su Cha was stunned for a moment and said, "Grandpa Pei, you said so much, I don't understand." ”

Pei Yuan said with a smile: "If you don't understand, remember it, and if you fight every day in the future, you will understand it slowly." ”

Su Cha nodded.

Pei Yuan turned his head and asked Xie Baoshu, "Do you understand?"

Xie Baoshu naturally didn't understand, he shook his head. Pei Yuan sighed and said, "Why did Xiao Murong choose such a fool as you, I explained it so clearly, why don't you still understand?

Xie Baoshu's heart was full ???of question marks.

He looked at Pei Yuan and asked, "Why didn't she say she didn't understand, you said it didn't matter." I don't understand, but you're going to scold me. ”

Pei Yuanyao shook his head and said, "Is this also a scolding of you? Then if I really scold you, you can't cry your nose and run back to Taoyuan Wonderland." Besides, are you embarrassed to compare yourself to a little girl? How old are people, how old you are, you are really not ashamed. ”

Xie Baoshu closed his mouth, he knew that he couldn't talk about this old man. However, he was a little surprised that this old man actually knew that he was from the Peach Paradise.

Pei Yuan didn't scold again, but looked at Su Cha kindly, and said, "Dao is born one, one life is two, two is three, and three is born."

Everything. ”

"The Tao gives birth to one, that is, dependent arising, and naturally produces one thing or one thing. The Tao, that is, the law of nature, gathers and disperses. One, i.e., one thing or one thing.

"Life two, that is, every thing has two sides of opposites and unity. Every thing or thing has its other side, and two sides make up one thing or thing. For example, a hard ball has two sides, a fight has two sides, a ball has two parts, and so on. The second is the two sides of things.

"Two begets three, that is, the contradictions and struggles between things or things, and new things arise. It is a universal law that the opposites of things can be transformed into each other under certain conditions, and if there is change, there will be renewal, renewal, and rebirth. There is an interaction between things is a universal law, and where there is interaction, there is renewal, renewal, renewal, and rebirth are three. ”

Although Su Cha couldn't understand these professional terms, she still remembered Pei Yuan's words in her heart.

Pei Yuan suddenly turned his head and said to Xie Baoshu: "The so-called "Shen" of boxing is the opposite of "floating". The first thing about "sinking" is that walking and standing are more calm than the ordinary, while the main thing about "floating" is that walking and standing are not calm enough compared to "sinking". Ordinary people usually walk smoothly, but for the "sinking" of martial arts, some may belong to "floating". ”

After hearing these words, Xie Baoshu's mind suddenly brightened, he looked at the old man, and bowed silently.

In terms of knife skills, Song Heng has always taught him carefully. In terms of boxing skills, he has no one to teach him, so he can only hold a prison boxing book and study it secretly. Learning boxing, Xie Baoshu was untaught, he didn't go mad and hurt his body, which is already very good.

Now Pei Yuan's words made him suddenly understand what kind of pile he had been standing on the pile.

In Tai Chi, the standing pile is the pusher. Pushing is a process of destroying the opponent's center of gravity and protecting the stability of one's own center of gravity. By standing on the pile, the qi sinks into the dantian, the leg strength is tied, and the center of gravity of the body is always in the support surface, and the body produces a kind of roundness in a relaxed and natural situation.

Round, that is, you can't pull it, you can't squeeze it, it used to be called yin and yang energy, and it was Tai Chi strength when it was practiced, and the other party came to press, so he relaxed, he couldn't focus on it, and when the other party left, it popped out again, and there was shed energy, which enhanced the ability to attack. In the boxing theory, it is said that "it is better to practice for a long time than to stand at one stop", which is the truth. You don't look at the appearance of the body and don't move, in fact, it is moving inside, and the degree of movement is deeper.

Xie Baoshu started Tai Chi at this time, and only then did he understand why Song Heng had always had to stand upright.

Because playing Tai Chi is similar to practicing knives.

"The study of the husband's pile method, the most taboo physical and mental force, force is stagnation, stagnation of qi is intended to stop, intention to stop is broken, and divine judgment is foolish. Especially avoid raising the head and bending the waist, the elbows and legs are too straight, always seem to be curved but not curved, seem to be straight and not straight, and the tendons are stretched. The head should be topped, the bones should be straight, the qi should be sinking, the heart should be meditated, the fingertips of the hands and feet should be slightly forced, the teeth seem to be closed but not closed, the tongue is rolled like the top is not the top, and the pores of the whole body are like loose but not loose. ”

This is a passage in the prison boxing book, Xie Baoshu thinks about it now, and it suddenly dawns.

Pei Yuan said: "Whether you stand well or not depends not on your feet, but."

It's up your spine. To practice boxing, you have to grasp the core, grasp the pelvis, spine to practice, don't care about your hands and feet, stand dantian, compare dantian, turn over the waves, and shake the strength is from this. After a long time, the spine is sensitive, and you will understand what it means to "have a big dragon in your whole body", and you will also know what it means to be sensitive behind your back, so that you can fight the enemy. ”

Xie Baoshu heard of the school's big dragon for the first time.

One can do it, one hundred of oneself, ten people can do it, one thousand of it, although the feeling must be clear, although the soft must be strong. It is advisable to practice boxing in a quiet place, to be a spirit, you have to practice a thousand times, if you are not skilled, you have to practice a thousand times. When practicing boxing, we should follow its rules, follow its nature, not obedient to the form, not erect in the inside, the outer form of the Shun, that is, the sum of the inner spirit, the outer form of the positive, that is, the inner spirit, so see the outside, know the inside, sincerity in the inside, form in the outside, that is, the inside and outside are one.

Now that I think about it, there are a lot of things recorded in the prison boxing book. It's just that I have been ignoring those things that are really important before. No wonder his boxing skills, after being polished by many people, are still so unbearable.

When he was in the Ice and Snow State, he woke up from a dream and educated him. In that boundless city, Chang Yan also educated him, and he is only now awakening.

The main method of boxing is pranayama, breathing without intention or force, as if it exists, as if there is nothing, and it is natural. The movements should conform to the rules of boxing, and the body should not be like a wave-like high and low, and the movement cycle should be unprovoked and uninterrupted.

It should be pure and natural, the style of the appearance should be stretched, and the qi in the heart should be neutral. Don't deliberately breathe when practicing boxing, don't breathe heavily, start practicing boxing to hold your breath like a night thief or a cat that preys, and if you can be so careful, your heart will calm down. Then as the punch opens, you have to find breath in the fist, and the breath you find is very flexible, more delicate than reverse breathing, and the body can be more useful.

You have to learn to breathe first, and then learn to practice boxing.

After learning to breathe, there are the two most important things in the lower back and spine.

If Tai Chi is compared to the long dragon, then the waist is the dragon's head, and the other joints dance slowly in turn, which is the meaning of "dominating the waist" and "paying attention to the waist".

When you really know how to use your waist, you will find that your previous boxing practice is all artificial, with too much active limbs and too little passivity, unable to go from the inside out, and far from being natural. The predecessors described the practice of Tai Chi as "pure spiritual action", or "like flowing water", in fact, only when you can practice boxing with your waist, it is almost close.

Kung fu has to be on the body, and you can't practice hard, everyone understands this truth. But having said that, blindly practicing hard may not be able to achieve, I think, practicing boxing has to play and practice from time to time, play and practice, and it seems to be practice.

Zen Buddhism talks about practice, and there are two sayings: after enlightenment, start cultivating, first cultivate and then enlighten. Neijiaquan also has a relationship between enlightenment and cultivation, but it is a layer of cultivation and enlightenment, and if you don't cultivate, you can't understand, that is, you can realize when you cultivate. After hard work, pondering again, comparing paintings, maybe the weather will be new immediately, like the Zen patriarch looking at the flowers and becoming enlightened, and this life will live up to the sword sharpening.

The boxing should have the meaning of drumming around the body, and the inner family is like water

The waves of practice are not settled, like the upper reaches of the dragon. The movement of water is most powerful in the form of waves, so drumming around the body is the best form of movement.

Xie Baoshu let go of Tai Chi and played his own prison boxing in the courtyard. He closed his eyes and moved his fists slightly, truly "walking to the poor place of the water, sitting and watching the clouds rise." At this time, his boxing skills have made a qualitative leap compared with before.

Su Cha suddenly exclaimed, "Something is coming." ”

Pei Yuan touched his beard, looked at Xie Baoshu, and said with a smile: "The son can be taught." ”

In the small courtyard, a god-man phantom slowly appeared in the air, and it followed Xie Baoshu's movements, punching and breathing at the same time. The god was huge, and its spine was straight, like a dragon. It stood in the city of Chang'an, standing up to the sky, as if it was about to break through the sky.

Not far from this small courtyard, there is an old man who is drinking bean juice. Sensing the phantom of this god-man, the old man stood up at once, startling the guests next to him. He looked at the small courtyard and frowned, "What is Pei Lao'er doing? Such a vision, could it be that he wanted to alarm the Vermilion Bird Formation." ”

This old man is the ancestor of the Lu family, and he is also the protector of the Vermilion Bird Great Array in Chang'an City.

Murong Ziying, as a body cultivator, naturally also felt the vision of heaven and earth, he pushed open the door, walked out, and saw the huge god and man phantom in the sky. He smiled: "The greatest glory of physical cultivation has been given by your kid, which is really amazing." It seems that it is better not to be a sword immortal, how good it would be to be a pure body cultivator. "

The phantom of gods and men is the highest glory of physical cultivation, and every realm may appear. Once it appears, it means that your boxing technique has alarmed the heavens and the earth, and it is in line with the heavens and the earth. What many people dream of has appeared in this kid.

The point is that he is still a gas double cultivator, not a pure physical cultivator.

Xie Baoshu had no time to take care of anything else at this time, he was immersed in a mysterious realm, and between his breath and breath, it was full of heaven and earth aura. The god-man phantom, with Xie Baoshu's breathing, his body rose high, and he wanted to break through the heavenly dome.

On the side of the street outside the courtyard, the ancestor of the Lu family shouted: "Stinky boy, if you suck it again, the aura of the entire Chang'an City will be sucked up for you!"
