Chapter 476: Starting All Over Again
"Teacher Meng, is this where you live? It seems to be very remote. Tan Xiaotian asked curiously, recalling the way over, it seems that there are no other residents in this small courtyard, of course, this may also be due to the bad light at night and I didn't notice it.
"Yes, I'm so quiet, that's why Mrs. Zheng built this small courtyard in the depths of the garden, and few people usually come here except for a few gardeners who take care of the garden." Meng Jiaotou replied lightly.
"Ah, Mrs. Zheng specially built a small courtyard for you to live in? Mr. Meng, you must not be an ordinary person! Tan Xiaotian was taken aback - the Zheng family is so big, of course it is not a big deal to find a place to build a small courtyard, the problem is that Meng Jiaotou is not a member of the Zheng family, his identity is only Zheng Jiacheng to protect the family and protect the home, and the head of the training family should be similar to a few housekeepers in terms of identity and status, but although those housekeepers also have their own housing, no one's residence is built by the Zheng family alone, so it can be seen that this Meng Jiaotou must have a great background, so he will receive Zheng Xinyu's special courtesy.
"What is ordinary or not, it's not two shoulders and one head." Meng Jiaotou was obviously not interested in this topic, but he just dealt with it casually, he didn't want to say it, Tan Xiaotian was not very familiar with him now, so he didn't dare to chase after him and keep asking.
"If you don't practice boxing, when you get old, no matter what you practice, the basic skills are the first, first take a horse step to show me." Sect Leader Meng didn't talk nonsense, and commanded directly.
"Yes." Although practicing martial arts and playing chess are different, but the truth inside is the same, if it is not for the basic skills to play very solid, no matter how subtle moves are displayed, its power will also be greatly reduced, the so-called one force down ten will, understand more, will move more. Without the strength to back it up, hitting the opponent is like tickling and will not have any power, so Tan Xiaotian didn't say a word, even if his feet were level with his shoulders, his legs were bent, his thighs and calves were at a ninety-degree right angle, his arms were raised, his hands were clenched into fists, and his eyes were looking straight ahead.
"Oh, that's good. The movements are pretty standard, who taught you? After turning around Tan Xiaotian, Meng Jiaotou was slightly surprised, although this kind of four-level horse is the most basic action, and all martial arts practitioners must practice, but it is so standard as soon as it comes up, it is impossible without the guidance of an expert before.
"Uncle Qijiazhuang." Tan Xiaotian replied.
"Uncle Qijiazhuang, Qilian Mountain? Well, he can be regarded as the number one person in the rivers and lakes. Did you learn kung fu from him? After thinking about it for a while, Meng Jiaotou nodded, and then asked again, his tone flat. I can't hear praise or criticism.
"I don't think I've ever gone to school, I passed through Qijiazhuang on the way to Yangzhou to learn chess, we lived in Qijiazhuang for two days, and Uncle Qi gave me some pointers." Tan Xiaotian replied. What I thought in my heart was that this Teacher Meng was very lame, Uncle Qi was so tall and mighty, and the famous figures in the rivers and lakes were only 'the number one person' in him. doesn't seem to have the Qi family's uncle in his eyes,
"Oh, that's fine, you don't have to correct the mistake later." Meng Jiaotou said.
"Uh, Teacher Meng, you also said that Uncle Qi is the number one person in the rivers and lakes, is it wrong for him to teach me?" Uncle Qi is the first martial arts master Tan Xiaotian knows, rude is a little rude, but he is bold, Tan Xiaotian has always had a good impression of him, and later heard from Lei Ming about his chivalrous deeds on the rivers and lakes, and he admired the Qi family uncle even more, and now I can't help but feel a little unhappy when I hear Meng Jiaotou's words about the Qi family's uncle.
"Heh, I also know that I am not wrong about you who maintain your own kindness, I don't mean that what Qi Lianshan taught you is wrong, it's just that he practices foreign kung fu, and I practice internal martial arts, whether it is in specific moves or in the concept of kung fu, there are many differences, what seems to be taken for granted in the eyes of external kung fu may be the opposite in the eyes of inner kung fu, of course, the reverse is the same."
To learn martial arts, basic skills are very important, because it is not easy to play a solid game with basic skills, and once you have practiced for a long time and formed a natural reaction, it is even more difficult to correct it. You only studied with Qi Lianshan for two days, and you are not really apprenticed, so the action is only in its shape, not its intention, and it is free from the trouble of correcting, which is like painting, you can splash ink on a blank piece of paper, and you can draw as much as you want, and if it is a piece of paper that has been used, then there are many more restrictions when painting. So, I don't mean to look down on Qi Lianshan or foreign kung fu, but there are some conflicts with what I want to teach you, so if you want to learn kung fu from me, you have to do it according to my instructions, understand? As if he understood Tan Xiaotian's inner thoughts, Meng Jiaotou smiled slightly and said.
"Oh, I see. It's the same as walking, it's worse than standing still to go in the wrong direction. After thinking about it, Tan Xiaotian's eyes lit up and said excitedly.
"Hehe, draw inferences, your little guy's brain is quite useful, no wonder Mrs. Zheng deliberately brought you from Yangzhou to the capital. Okay, without wasting time, I'll teach you another way to do it, pay attention. "I am still very satisfied with Tan Xiaotian's brain, Meng Jiaotou, you must know that compared with external kung fu, practicing internal kung fu requires more one' The word 'enlightenment', in short, it doesn't matter if the brain of practicing foreign kung fu is stupid, as long as you are willing to work hard and time, you can practice a good martial arts sooner or later, but the inner kung fu is different, if the understanding is not enough, you can't break the layer of window paper, then it takes more effort, no matter how much time you spend, it is just gymnastics to strengthen the body, so the people who practice internal kung fu are far less than those who practice foreign kung fu, and the selection of apprentices is extremely strict, not just pull a head to learn it.
"Yes." According to Meng Jiaotou's movements, Tan Xiaotian also posed in the same posture according to the gourd painting scoop, and after he stood up, Meng Jiaotou raised his hands and feet, correcting the children's movements that were not standard, the difficulty of the newly learned horse steps was much higher than that of Siping horses, and without much effort, Tan Xiaotian felt that his legs were extremely sore, and he couldn't help but start trembling, and he couldn't wait to stand up immediately regardless of anything, but seeing Meng Jiaotou's expressionless face and not speaking, he could only grit his teeth and persevere, hoping that Meng Jiaotou would speak sooner, Let yourself catch your breath first.
