Chapter 11 Learning Wing Chun
Wing Chun originated in Foshan, is a kind of southern close-knit short fighting, it is a set of internal boxing and close combat in one, requiring the hand, waist, horse, heart, mind, strength of the whole unity. It emphasizes that the "heart" commands the "will", and the intention guides the movement of the hands, waist and horse, so as to form a whole. Based on actual combat, it has the main characteristics of changeable moves, flexible use, flexible punching, short bridge narrow horse, and good at inching.
The goal of Wing Chun is to quickly knock down the enemy, and generally punches do not leave the midline of the body, because Wing Chun believes that the midline is the shortest distance between two people, and punching from the midline can knock down the enemy as quickly as possible.
Moreover, Wing Chun pays great attention to maintaining the center of gravity of the human body, so that it can eliminate enemy attacks while leaving room for counterattacks at any time. Offensive and defensive.
Li Xiaoye also likes this set of boxing techniques very much, and learns it very seriously, probably influenced by Ip Man's movie. Ip Man spent the whole afternoon feeding Li Xiaoye, because Li Xiaoye's learning speed was too fast. The basic boxing routines can be understood as soon as they are taught, and they will be demonstrated as soon as they are demonstrated.
This is really too ashamed for Ip Man. His master once praised himself as a martial arts wizard, but now he is not a little worse than his apprentice.
This is really a bit exaggerated by Li Xiaoye's progress, no one would have thought that someone could learn the whole Wing Chun in one afternoon. What Li Xiaoye lacks now is only to integrate and apply what he has learned. However, this shortcoming has been continuously improved under Ip Man's feeding tricks.
It's dinner time in the blink of an eye.
"Xiao Ye, it's not too early, I'll be here first today. I'm tired from practicing all afternoon today, let's go, let's go to my house and have dinner together. "Ye Man fed Li Xiaoye for an afternoon, and he was also a little tired.
Seeing that it was almost dinner time, I also wanted to go home for dinner, after all, the apprenticeship gifts that Li Xiaoye brought to him before also wanted to bring them back to improve the food for the family as soon as possible.
"Okay, master."
"That's right, Xiao Ye, that, that ......" Ye Man's tone suddenly became a little embarrassed. Of course, Li Xiaoye knew what Ip Man wanted to say, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart, it was really hard for a penny to be a hero.
"Master, this is my tuition." Li Xiaoye immediately handed over 1,000 yuan with both hands.
Seeing so much money, Ye Man was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Ye, you don't need so much, 20 yuan is enough." Take back the excess. "Ip Man is a very decent person and doesn't want to take more money.
Li Xiaoye hurriedly stopped Ip Man from stuffing the money back. said: "Master, this 100 yuan is tuition." The rest is my heart, you pass on my Wing Chun, I have nothing to repay, I can only use these mundane things to repay the master's kindness. Please take it from the master. And even if the master doesn't need it, the master needs it. Master, take it."
"Okay." Ip Man was also very clear about the conditions at home, so he didn't shirk it anymore. "Let your master and mother cook two side dishes today, and let's have a good drink today."
Ip Man is happy today, not only accepted a talented apprentice, but also charged a large amount of 'tuition', and finally let his wife and children live a good life.
"Wife, I'm back. Let me introduce to you, this is my newly accepted apprentice, called Li Xiaoye, just call him Xiaoye. Xiaoye, this is your sister-in-law Zhang Yongcheng. ”
"I've seen my master, this is a meeting gift for my apprentice to my mother, and I ask my wife to smile." Li Xiaoye had an idea, took out the perfume he bought when he accompanied Alice shopping, and gave it to Zhang Yongcheng.
"Xiao Ye, what is this, why are there still some foreign characters on it?" Zhang Yongcheng looked at the small bottle in his hand and couldn't help asking.
"Master, this thing is called perfume, produced in France, and it is made by mixing different petals and various spices. Spraying it on a person's body can make people exuate the fragrance of flowers like a fragrant concubine. This bottle of perfume is orchid-scented, and it is most suitable for a beautiful and connotative woman like you. ”
"Xiao Ye, this thing must be very precious, right?" Zhang Yongcheng hurriedly asked.
"Master, it's not expensive, it's just more than 1,000 yuan." Li Xiaoye didn't talk nonsense, this bottle of Chanel perfume was indeed about 1,500 yuan when he bought it. In Ip Man's world, it will only be more expensive, after all, there is no price, and it can be said that there is only one bottle in the world at present.
More than 1,500 yuan, my good man. Ip Man is okay, after all, he just received 1,000 yuan from his apprentice, and he knows that his apprentice is a local tyrant, so he is ready again. But Zhang Yongcheng was different, and he was taken aback. More than 1,500 yuan is saved, and it is estimated that it will be enough for a family of three to live in Hong Kong for several years.
"Xiao Ye, this thing is too precious, I can't ask for it." It can be seen that Zhang Yongcheng still likes this thing, after all, which woman doesn't love beauty. But Zhang Yongcheng also understood that it was inappropriate to use such a precious thing as a gift, so he was reluctant to return the perfume to Li Xiaoye.
"Master, just take it. Boy, I'm alone, I don't have an object, although this bottle of perfume is precious, it has no practical use for me, it's better to give it to the master, and it can also make the master better tie the master's heart, master, right? ”
Li Xiaoye smiled and teased his master by the way.
This made Ip Man blush. glared at Li Xiaoye, and just as he was about to reprimand Li Xiaoye, Zhang Yongcheng stood up.
"Ye Wen, okay, Xiao Ye, he's just joking, why are you staring at him? Xiaoye, are all these rice, noodles, melons and fruits brought by you? It's polite to come, I'll make a few side dishes, and I'll have a few drinks with your master. After that, he went to the kitchen.
"Your sister hasn't been so happy for a long time." Ip Man couldn't help but sigh.
"Master, don't worry. I will honor you and my wife. Wait and be happy. ”
Ip Man also smiled with relief, if you have to be like this, what more can you ask for.
During the dinner, Ip Man also asked some things about foreign countries. Although Li Xiaoye has not really been abroad during this period, he has never eaten pork and has seen pigs running away. By the way, I talked about some foreign customs.
In the end, Ip Man sighed with emotion, I don't know when my Huaxia will be able to rise, and I will no longer be oppressed and insulted by foreigners.
Li Xiaoye could only sigh when he saw this. I thought in my heart: Soon, Huaxia will soon be strong.
Thinking of Huaxia in the real world, Li Xiaoye is still very proud, and it is estimated that the trajectory of this world should be similar to the trajectory of the real world. China has suffered enough in modern times, and it is about to take off.
"By the way, master, we might as well open a martial arts gym. We Chinese people are always ridiculed by foreigners as the sick man of East Asia, and the best way to change the Chinese physique is to practice martial arts. It's hard for the two of us to change the big environment, but I think we can open a martial arts gym and let more people join us and strengthen our bodies together, and then we can drive more people to join us and strengthen our Huaxia. ”
Li Xiaoye said with a surging face, as if he had seen the rise of China.
Ye Man was also very excited when he heard Li Xiaoye's words. I used to feel that I only had a small place to practice martial arts. Only now do I realize that I can do bigger things. It can help more people to strengthen their bodies and avoid bullying from outsiders, and at the same time, it can also carry forward Wing Chun, which is also what the ancestors of Wing Chun are willing to see.
Just do it, although Li Xiaoye doesn't have much money, but now that foreigners are rich, they went out for a walk at night and knocked a few stuffy sticks. made a windfall. However, for the sake of caution, Li Xiaoye still digested these belongings on the black market before giving them to Ip Man. With this money, the master and apprentice went out to find a house together during the day, and soon found a suitable place to open a martial arts hall.
The rent is not expensive, only 500 yuan a year. Think about the real life housing prices in Hong Kong, hey, it's incomparable.
At the same time, Li Xiaoye also posted Wing Chun flyers on the nearby streets and alleys, which soon attracted Huang Liang and his party. remembers that Huang Liang, played by Huang Xiaoming in the original book, also had a fight with Ip Man, but was abused by blood.
This time, because I already have a big apprentice. It's not necessary for Ip Man to make a move. Li Xiaoye's nostrils were bleeding from Huang Liang's nostrils with a casual blow, and even if he called a few friends, he was no match for Li Xiaoye. In the end, he was convinced, and worshiped Ip Man as his teacher. and honored Li Xiaoye as the senior brother.
Just when Ip Man's master and apprentice were preparing for the opening of the martial arts hall together, trouble came.
