Chapter Seventy-Six
Wang Xiaobai said that he almost didn't make the old man's nose crooked, a young man who has practiced Taijiquan for half a year, and said to a man who has practiced Taijiquan for twenty-five years that the Taijiquan he practiced is Taiji, and today he will teach this kid a good lesson, so that he knows what is the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth, and what is the real Taijiquan.
The old man was calm and calm, and put a starting pose, just after the starting gesture, Wang Xiaobai took a wrong step around his side and pushed towards his right shoulder, the old man hurriedly went to the frame, but the frame was empty, Wang Xiaobai twisted the soles of his feet, and slapped his backhand on the old man's back, of course, it was a gentle pat, not to give strength, but with the power of the old man, he still stumbled.
The old man was taken aback, Wang Xiaobai's fast movements were unexpected, and what made him even more unexpected was that the seemingly bland shot could produce great power, he felt that Wang Xiaobai had no strength at all, and after stabilizing his feet, he turned around and shot, obviously feeling that Wang Xiaobai was behind him, but when he turned around, he was gone, and he couldn't even see how to fight?
The old man was feeling helpless, his back was gently pushed again, and Wang Xiaobai's voice came: "Uncle, the person who taught you Tai Chi didn't teach you the real thing at all, and you can't keep it, what else do you practice Tai Chi?" It's not to blow with you, let's do it, you can't even see me, how can you fight me if you can't see it? ”
Of course, the old man was not convinced, shouted in the direction where the voice came, and started forward, it seemed to be quite fast, but he still didn't see Wang Xiaobai, and his back was pushed again, Wang Xiaobai said: "Taiji gives birth to two yi, two yi gives birth to four elephants, and four elephants give birth to gossip...... You have changed enough, but not keeping one is equal to practicing in vain, what is keeping one? The Taiping Sutra says that the law of abiding by one is the root of all gods. People have one body, and they are always in harmony with the spirit. The form is the death of the Lord, and the spirit is the life of the Lord. If you are always together, you will be lucky, and if you go, you will be fierce. Constant unity is one, and it can last forever and ......"
"Shouyi is the most basic thing in Taoism, if you don't learn or practice this thing, the so-called Tai Chi is a flower shelf, what else can it be if it's not Tai Chi exercises?"
Wang Xiaobai talked eloquently, not only what Wang Lao Taoist taught him, but also many of his own blind figures, the old man was tired and panting, not to mention beating Wang Xiaobai, he couldn't even see the shadow, Wang Xiaobai was like air, but it existed, Wang Xiaobai was not ready to consume it with him, pushed the old man's back, jumped away, and asked: "Uncle, are you convinced?" ”
The old man is not an arrogant person, and Wang Xiaobai is real ability, he said to Wang Xiaobai: "I'm convinced, hey, I didn't expect that I have studied for more than 20 years, and I can't compare to a young man who has studied for half a year, I'm ashamed!" ”
"Uncle, don't be ashamed, I am cultivating the Tao first and then practicing boxing, just get twice the result with half the effort, you are from the fist into the Tao, there is no order to say, I estimate, the master who taught you Taijiquan, he has not figured out many things, in fact, you have practiced to this level is already very good, ordinary people are not your opponents, I am young, many things are nonsense, you don't go to your heart."
An uncle who practiced boxing well, lost people's self-confidence, that is not what Wang Xiaobai wants to see, a few polite words, but I didn't expect the old man to be silent, and said: "When Tai Chi Grandmaster Yang Luchan entered Beijing, he fought all over the invincible opponents in the city, Wang Gong Baylor, all have to learn, Yang Luchan removed the real technique of Tai Chi boxing, the fierce boxing method, not even jumping, now that I think about it, my master is also afraid that I will hurt my body, and what he taught me is Tai Chi exercises!" ”
"It doesn't matter what he is, it's good if he likes it, it's good if he can maintain his health, and he doesn't have to really do it with people! Now is not the era of cold weapons, uncle, you practice slowly, I have to go back to school, goodbye to fate! ”
Wang Xiaobai was about to leave, but the old man stopped him and said, "Little friend, I understand Shouyi, can you tell me about Shouyi in Taijiquan?" ”
The old man has practiced Tai Chi for more than 20 years, and he is quite confident, but he just ran into Wang Xiaobai, and his self-confidence was smashed, and playing Tai Chi has become a part of his life, can he really give up? But if he continues to practice wrongly, he is also a little unwilling, and wants Wang Xiaobai to point out.
Wang Xiaobai saw that the old man was a little listless, and he couldn't bear it, so he said to him: "Uncle, Tai Chi is the theory of yin and yang, rigid and soft, dynamic, fast and slow, and tight...... are all opposites, but in my opinion, Taijiquan is not only these, but also life and death, good luck and evil, rise and fall, I don't know much, a lot of it is my own blind thinking, you should listen to play, Taijiquan is too profound, just tell you about Shouyi! ”
"Why does Tai Chi keep one? Because one is fundamental, and there is one, it can be divided into two instruments, two instruments into four images, and four images into gossip, what is this? It's yourself, this one is you, only by keeping one, can you divide it and take it back, uncle, your boxing method is very neat, but you can only receive two instruments, not one, this is the biggest problem. ”
"Let's put it this way, Tai Chi is a practical boxing method, inseparable from yin and yang, and there are some fierce tricks, are these tricks yin or yang? Generally speaking, the offense is yang, the defense is yin, the rigidity is yang, the softness is yin, when fighting, you shoot fiercely, for yang, basically everyone thinks that yang is good, but if you punch the opponent to death, it becomes a bad thing, is this yin or yang? Maybe you say that this is yin, but if you kill a heinous villain, is this yin or yang? ”
"Life is yang, death is yin, good things are yang, bad things are yin, but this yin and yang, who can say 100% clearly? At this time, I have to defend one, and before I started, I had a thought, should I subdue the other party or beat the other party, kill or cripple? Keeping this one, you keep this one, so that you will not be disturbed, will be moved and static due to the situation, and rigid and soft, all your changes will be ever-changing, to reach the original idea, this is to keep one, of course, this is only for hands-on. ”
"And your fist fight is too full, meticulous, it seems that there is no flaw, but the moon is full, and if it is too full, you block all the changes, in the eyes of the master, it is full of loopholes......"
The old man is quite good at studying Chinese studies, and Wang Xiaobai's words have a lot of loopholes, but some words still touched him, and he couldn't help asking: "These are all handed over to you by your master?" ”
"No, Master just gave me some foundations, which I made up by myself, so you should listen to it as a joke. Uncle, I'm not playing boxing, you can listen to these words, don't take them seriously if you can't listen to them, don't frame yourself, Tai Chi is a university question, it involves too deep, it's okay to read Taoist classics, it's good for practicing boxing......"
Wang Xiaobai was about to leave after saying this, but the old man grabbed him and said with a bitter face: "You are practicing the Tai Chi you just now, I am studying and studying, researching and researching, you can't go, or I will worship you as a teacher?" ”
Wang Xiaobai was taken aback, he was not yet twenty years old, what was the matter with accepting a fifty-five old man as an apprentice? What's more, he is really not an expert in Taijiquan, many theories have been realized from the master in the past three years, and he doesn't know whether it works or not, don't take it seriously.
"Uncle, you're kidding, I can't teach you, you'll lose your life!"
"You're doing the punch you just did, I'm going to learn something......"
The old man grabbed Wang Xiaobai and didn't let go, Wang Xiaobai was also very helpless, and said: "Then I'll fight again, uncle, I'm guarding one now, what I keep is to feel the nature of heaven and earth, to keep it is to integrate with the nature of heaven and earth, and to feel the vitality of the sun, you look at it!" ”
Wang Xiaobai took a deep breath and began to box, he boxed without rules, how to be comfortable, how to come, the body stretched, the boxing method was plausible, moving with the breeze, walking with the white clouds, guarding with the breath, looking lazy, but the old man who listened to Wang Xiaobai's words, looked at it again, the feeling was different, he could feel Wang Xiaobai's breathing, it seemed to be the same as the rhythm of the morning wind, the dancing posture was weird, but it was integrated with the surrounding scene, and it did not seem abrupt, strange harmony.
The most bizarre thing is that when some of the withered yellow leaves fell, they became slow in the air, moving with Wang Xiaobai's movements, as if they were dancing with Wang Xiaobai's rhythm, the old man was shocked, Wang Xiaobai's moves ...... It's really ugly, not to mention the standard, the action doesn't mean the standard at all, it's so smart......
More than 20 years of boxing, it's really in vain...... The old man was dumbfounded, and when Wang Xiaobai finished the comparison, he hurriedly said: "Children, today is Sunday, I invite you to my house as a guest, let's have a good chat about Tai Chi!" ”
After Wang Xiaobai finished a set of punches, he was refreshed, he didn't have the heart to play with the old man, and refused: "Uncle, I still have something to do, I haven't eaten breakfast, let's talk about it when we have time." ”
"And when are you coming back?"
"Come when you have time, I'm a student, study-oriented, let's learn again when we have time, goodbye, uncle!"
Wang Xiaobai can see clearly, the old man is more obsessed with Taijiquan, he is really going to be entangled, and he can't get out of it for a day, so it's better to go early, and run away after speaking, the old man looked at Wang Xiaobai's back, and saw Wang Xiaobai running fast, and couldn't help shouting: "Little master, do you have any name for Taijiquan?" ”
"Lingguan Taiji!" Wang Xiaobai replied, sped up and ran, ran out of the park, returned to the vicinity of the school, found a stall selling fried dough and tofu brain, asked for a bowl of tofu brain, three fritters, sat down and waited, felt that there was someone behind him, turned his head and looked, Xin Lei was behind him, and he was raising his hand to pat him on the shoulder, but she didn't expect Wang Xiaobai to suddenly turn around, but she was startled.
The two looked at each other, and Wang Xiaobai said: "It's you, you almost scared me!" ”
"You scared me, I wanted to pat you on the shoulder, but you suddenly turned around and scared me to death!" Xin Lei sat down next to Wang Xiaobai as she spoke, and said to Wang Xiaobai: "Wang Xiaobai, you scared me, please let me eat fritters?" ”
