Chapter 13: The War
"Xiao Ye, as a teacher, I have to accept the challenge of all my martial arts colleagues in Hong Kong today, and you will go with me and gain a long experience."
"Yes, master." Li Xiaoye actually wants to see the development of modern martial arts face-to-face.
Modern martial arts seem to have no internal strength, and the main competition is moves, speed, strength, and reactions.
Internal force, which is a common thing in martial arts novels, has never been encountered in this world. It seems that only by going to some medium-sized martial arts worlds can you see the real internal force.
Thinking of this, Li Xiaoye still had some expectations in his heart.
"Today, there is a fellow martial arts practitioner Ip Man, who wants to open a church in Hong Kong, according to the rules, he has to accept the challenge of a stick of incense in the ring, and he is qualified to teach boxing if he does not fall within a stick of incense. Now, who is willing to go up and show his hands? ”
Hong Zhennan sat on the main seat, looking a bit like the martial arts alliance leader of Hong Kong's martial arts.
After Master Luo and Master Zheng shirked each other for a while, Master Luo took the stage first.
Li Xiaoye remembers that in the movie, Ip Man won easily against these two people, and I believe this time is no exception.
To be honest, Li Xiaoye also felt that the two of them were purely fighting there, and felt that the bells and whistles were useless, so they were knocked down with a punch when they went up.
If it weren't for the mercy of Ip Man's subordinates, he didn't want them to lose too badly, and he would not look good in front of his apprentices. It is estimated that Master Luo and Master Zheng have already been beaten down a few times.
Sure enough, after a simple fight, Ip Man finally defeated Master Luo and Master Zheng very easily.
Seeing these two lose so badly, the masters present all saw how powerful Ip Man was, and no one wanted to go up and ask for his humiliation. At this time, it was replaced by Hong Zhennan.
Hong Zhennan's Hong Fist walks the fierce current, and the boxing method is wide open and closed, and it can be seen that this set of boxing methods is more suitable for people with strong stature and relatively large strength.
After Hong Zhennan came to power, he made a direct move after meeting Ip Man. When he first punched with both hands, he went straight to the front of Ip Man, but was blocked by Ip Man's elbow. Then Hong Zhennan also missed a blow, and immediately went up with a hook with his right hand, and then stepped forward with his left leg, blocking the possibility that Ye Man wanted to retreat.
Ye Man didn't plan to retreat, and with a flick of his head, he dodged a heavy hook from Hong Zhennan. Immediately, his hands reached forward and slapped at Hong Zhennan's chest, but they were also blocked by Hong Zhennan's arms.
The two fought back and forth, and they fought for more than a dozen rounds without a win.
Li Xiaoye has been watching from the audience, and it can be seen that Ip Man's hands have never left the middle line of his body, so that he can resist Hong Zhennan's stormy attack in time, and at the same time, he will counterattack while blocking Hong Zhennan's fist, which is also a major feature of Wing Chun, a bit like the feeling of defensive counterattack.
In one sentence to describe Li Xiaoye's feeling at this time, Hong Zhennan is playing a preemptive strike and is powerful. Ip Man played the last-mover first-come, skillful confrontation.
At this moment, Hong Zhennan grabbed a gap and grabbed Ip Man's collar sharply, wanting to throw Ip Man out of the ring.
Unexpectedly, Ye Man grabbed Hong Zhennan's back collar while turning over, and the two of them landed on the table again at the same time, without dividing the score.
So the two of them went from the competition of moves to the competition of boxing, and the two sides rushed around the table with a quick fist, and the people around them were dazzled, and they couldn't tell who was attacking and who was defending.
At this moment, the table could not hold up at first. Broken in two by two people, the two of them immediately stared at the table in the air, and landed the table smoothly on the chair twice, once again decided.
"Good !!" The people off the field were better for a while. Li Xiaoye glanced back, and the incense had just finished burning. In fact, in Li Xiaoye's opinion, there is not much difference in the strength of the two people, but Ip Man is young and strong, and it is Ip Man who has a good chance of winning if he fights again.
"Master Ye." Hong Zhennan clasped his fists with both hands, which can be regarded as an admission that Ye Man is qualified to open a martial arts hall to teach boxing.
"Master Hong." Ip Man also returned the salute with his hands clenched into fists.
"By the way, Master Ye, remember to pay the membership fee at the beginning of each month."
"Okay, we got it."
Ye Man was just about to say something when he was interrupted by Li Xiaoye. However, Ip Man didn't say anything more, after all, the current situation is different from the same period in the movie, in the movie, Ip Man has no extra money to pay membership dues, so he will fight hard.
And now it's different, this little money is not a lot for himself, and the eldest disciple can't refute him anymore if he treats himself when he speaks. It was regarded as selling the face of the colleagues present.
"Master, we don't need to make trouble with everyone for 100 yuan a month, we are not short of this amount of money now, and when our martial arts hall opens, with the name of the master, it will be a day to make money."
"Yes, that's right." Ip Man felt that the most correct thing he had done over the years was to accept Li Xiaoye as an apprentice, not only with outstanding talent, but also extremely filial and likable.
Three days later, the Yip's martial arts gym opened, and all martial arts colleagues in Hong Kong sent people to congratulate Ip Man's martial arts gym on its prosperous business.
Hong Zhennan also sent his apprentice Ah Wen to send someone to send a pair of stone lions. The disciples of Wing Chun and Hung Quan are all happy, not at all like in the movie.
Sure enough, the problem that can be solved with money is not a problem, Li Xiaoye couldn't help but think in his heart.
By the way, the Huayang Boxing Tournament will start in a week. How to save Hong Zhennan at that time is a problem. If you poison yourself and use a secret weapon, it's too embarrassing. By the way, ask Xiaoxing this kid.
"Xiaoxing, Xiaoxing, if you are not here, squeak if you are here, the master is looking for you."
"Hey, master, I'm playing a game of eagle catching chickens with the red queen. Master, what are you looking for me? Li Xiaoye then told him about Hong Zhennan's death in the Huayang Boxing Tournament, and saw if Xiaoxing had a way to solve this problem decently.
"Just bother me about this? Master, I'm the most advanced artificial intelligence in the universe, why do you always insult my retardation with such trivial things? It's a very simple answer, there are many reasons why the boxing match is suspended in the middle of the fight, such as a power outage or something......"
"Xiaoxing, you are so smart, why didn't I think of cutting wires." Li Xiaoye danced happily. Looks like a 200-pound fool. "Alas, what a stupid master." Xiaoxing couldn't help but feel worried about his future in his heart, just such a comic master, will he be moved in the future?
Hong Zhennan has been in a bad mood recently, because the British policeman doesn't want to give him the money for the boxing match, and wants them to work for nothing.
If you are alone, forget it, but after all, there are still 200-degree people, so you have to think about eating for them. Just when confronting the ghost head, the ghost head said that if Hong Zhennan and they didn't want to do the boxing match, then they wouldn't even do the work of the fish stall. I have no choice but to endure it, and Fatty Bo is also comforting him on the side as if he was losing weight.
However, Hong Zhennan still took the time to go to the Ye Martial Arts Hall to find Ip Man and handed Ip Man some tickets for the Huayang Boxing Tournament.
In fact, Hong Zhennan still admires Ip Man very much in his heart, because Ip Man is not only not below him in martial arts, but also much younger than him. I don't have such a powerful kung fu at Ip Man's age.
I heard that Ip Man has an apprentice who is a martial arts wizard, and martial arts are not under Ip Man. I really don't know where Ip Man found such a powerful apprentice. There is a successor, the blessing of Wing Chun.
During this time, Li Xiaoye took the time to go to the venue, studied the wires of the venue, and prepared to cut the power supply when Hong Zhennan showed signs of defeat, and at the same time made a scene of accidental power failure due to the aging of the wires.
Finally, the Huayang boxing match is coming, and after thinking about it, I don't have much time to spend in Ip Man's movie.
Li Xiaoye then found Zhang Tiancheng and left a large sum of money for Zhang Tiancheng, and said: "Master, my family sent someone to find me a few days ago, my grandfather is about to celebrate his 80th birthday, and they are all abroad now, I may go abroad again, and I don't know when I will come back. ”
Zhang Tiancheng also likes Li Xiaoye's disciple very much, not only sensible and filial, but also will please himself, and from time to time send himself some novelty things, he is also a little reluctant. "Xiaoye, this ...... Does your master know that? ”
"Master, the master doesn't know for the time being, and I don't plan to say goodbye to the master. I also hope that my wife can help me keep this secret. I'm afraid I'll be too sad to leave. In the future, I will bother the master to take good care of the master when the time comes. With that, he turned and left.
"This kid." Zhang Tiancheng was also a little sad in his heart. However, he still plans to keep this secret for Li Xiaoye. I can only think silently in my heart: I hope that Ye Man will not be too sad about Xiao Ye's departure at that time.......
