Chapter 17: The Realm That Doesn't Exist!

In the artist, drawing, writing, there is a word of inspiration.

Inspiration is the emotion of the heart.

When inspiration comes, it is like a spring, and the pen is like a god!

Just practicing martial arts, what inspiration can there be?

Wang Bin was confused.

The old man said: "Take a walk, walk more places, and be open-minded, so you will naturally be moved and enter the darkness!" ”

"Old man, what is the way of sincerity?" Suddenly asked.

"The Book of Rites? The Mean": Only the world is sincere, in order to be able to economic the world's great scriptures, establish the world's foundation, and know the transformation and education of the world. Zhu Xiji's note: "The way of sincerity cannot be known unless it is holy; The most holy virtue cannot be done without sincerity. The old man said: "This is the highest state of Confucianism, the state of mind of a sage!" ”

"Confucius said, I have five out of ten and am determined to learn, thirty and stand, forty and not confused, fifty and know the destiny of heaven, sixty and obedient, seventy and do what I want, do not exceed the rules. At the age of seventy, Confucius realized the way of sincerity and truly became a saint! ”

Wang Bin asked again: "What is the realm after the transformation of strength!" ”

The old man was silent: "There is no realm behind!" How the predecessors, I don't know. And among the martial artists I have seen, the older generation of Bagua Boxing Dong Haichuan, Tai Chi Boxing Yang Luchan, the younger generation of Bajiquan Li Wenwen, Li Cunyi, etc., are all in the strength! As for the realm behind, I don't know, and no one has stepped into that realm! ”

The old man is a generation of martial arts masters, but he is only at the peak of his strength, and the realm behind him is not known at all, or even exists.

Wang Bin coughed and said, "Is there really no realm?" There is no way ahead! ”

The old man said: "Back then, Li Cunyi also asked me like this, in order not to dispel his confidence, I proposed three realms, which are divided into Danjin, Gangjin, and Shenjin. ”

"After the strength is completed, it can control any tendon, muscle, and epithelia on the body, and carry the qi and blood around the body. At this time, if the kung fu is at a higher level, and the essence and energy can converge into a point between existence and non-existence, we call it Baodan. Hugging, which means to hug the qi and blood of the whole body and become one. Dan, take the meaning of Taoist Jindan. Gold is immortal, and Dan is round. ”

"After holding Dan, it is innate strength, and the kung fu of volleying an inch in the air. To put it bluntly, it is a volley of dark energy, and the effect of playing bright energy, after shooting an inch, it can still hurt people. As it is said in the boxing scripture: the muscles and bones exert force, the shock but not the swing is congenital, the movement is moving, and the explosion is not loud for the gangqi. If the person who practices boxing reaches this realm, he is not far from the avenue. ”

"Above the strength, there is the strength of the gods. As the old saying goes: Break the void and see that God is not bad. This god is not a mythical deity, but refers to his own body. Seeing God is not bad means being able to see the most subtle parts of one's body, keeping one's body in a perfect state at all times, and becoming a state that is not bad or leaky. ”

"It's not bad, it's not that it won't be damaged, it's not as strong as a diamond, and the axe and knife will not hurt. But once there is damage to the body, no matter how subtle, it can be noticed, so as to find ways to repair and make up for it, so that your body can always maintain a complete and peak state. ”

The old man said, "These are all realms that I imagined, and I don't know if they exist or not!" And Dong Haichuan and Yang Luchan also have different ideas! ”

I'm dizzy!

I finally understand, what is going on in the next three realms?

To put it bluntly, the last three realms are all imagined by these masters of national arts, whether they exist or not, whether there is or not, just think about it.

It's like in the 20th century, when some people imagined communism, but it existed in their imagination, and each person's understanding was different!

………………

A few days later, I said goodbye to the old man, went to find the Boxer, and went to find Daddy Wang Wu!

Walked through Zhili and arrived in Shandong!

Shandong is in chaos, and the rivers and lakes are in chaos!

In China, the court is yang, the rivers and lakes are yin, and the temples and rivers and lakes build the whole world. From the beginning of the Song Dynasty, China began to emphasize literature and suppress martial arts, and suppressed the spread of martial arts, even more so in the Qing Dynasty. In this era when the imperial power does not go to the countryside, there are no village cadres and township cadres, forming a blank, and this blank is the rivers and lakes.

Although the rivers and lakes are not orthodox, not recognized, and suppressed by successive dynasties, the power it contains cannot be underestimated.

In the Qing Dynasty, this force was organized by "teaching", "door" and "dao" in the north of the Yangtze River, and in the south of the Yangtze River, it was called "hui", "party" and "tang"; If we study it deeply, the "teachings", "Dao", and "gates" in the north have a deep relationship with the White Lotus Sect, no matter what their origins, while the "Hui", "Party", and "Gang" in the south are inseparable from the Heaven and Earth Society in any case.

Jianghu, the future generations only exist in martial arts novels, and make countless people yearn for it, in fact, it is also beautiful at all, there is too much darkness!

And in Shandong can be said to be a lot of sects, the earliest sect to talk about the Shunzhi period, there is no for the teaching, smelling incense, a stick of incense, and then in the early years of Kangxi, there are Dacheng teaching, Bagua teaching, and then to the Qianlong period, there are a conversion to a religion, ***, mixed yuan religion, away from the hexagram religion, and then there are nine palace Taoism, sage Taoism, Hongyang religion, Tianli religion. These are all big sects, and there are countless small ones. Many of these sects are somewhat implicated in the White Lotus Sect, but they are different, each sect has a person who founded the sect, although they believe that they are all childless mothers, and other things are added to them, and they basically burn incense to worship God and greed for money and profit on weekdays, and some also recruit rebellion in order to misbehave. The above are all cultural and educational, and there are also some churches that specialize in martial arts, such as Shun Dao Society, Dadao Society, Golden Bell Jar, Iron Cloth Shirt, Shen Boxing, Plum Blossom Boxing and other boxing clubs. This boxer is actually plum blossom boxing.

The Boxers revolted one after another, smashed churches, and killed foreigners; It was also to fight the Qing army and kill the Qing army.

It's a mess, some like a water margin, with flowers blooming everywhere on the hills, and rebellions are continuous!

In the chaos, Yuan Shikai began to enter Shandong, acting as a prefect, killing the Boxers, and now the Boxers suffered heavy losses, and some of them turned into rogues and moved to other provinces and regions; Part of it stayed in Shandong and continued to fight against Yuan Shikai.

Along the way, Wang Bin only saw poverty, backwardness, and lack of food.

Suddenly, Wang Bin understood why Shandong Yihequan was the most noisy, because there were too many poor people here, and many people couldn't eat enough, so they naturally wanted to kill officials and rebel.

Along the way, there were killings everywhere, killings and killings, killings and killings.

The Boxer is killing, the officers and soldiers are killing, everyone is killing, killing people is red-eyed, who cares about good and evil!

Everywhere you go, it's purgatory on earth!

Walking on foot, I encountered a lot of bandits, boxers, officers and soldiers along the way, Wang Bin killed a lot of people, used a big knife in close combat, and used a Mauser gun in distant combat, too many people died under his hands!

You have to kill people, if you don't kill people, people will kill you!
