Chapter 5: Reminiscences

Jiang Jinjiu's original name was Jiang Chao, his father's name was Jiang Zhenye, and his grandfather Jiang Weiguo opened a small brick-burning workshop in his hometown of Luozhou, which started from scratch, and in a few years, with his own ingenuity and hard work, he became a well-known wealthy businessman in Luozhou.

Luozhou's folk martial arts are thriving, and Jiang Zhenye has been naughty and active since he was a child, so Jiang Weiguo invited him to teach him martial arts, one is to hope that he can strengthen his body, and the other is to let him collect his temperament and hone his temper.

Jiang Zhenye is indeed the material for martial arts, three or five years to invite the master to defeat all, Jiang Weiguo is very happy, feel that he is a tiger, so he spent a lot of money to invite some masters of the country, within a few years, Jiang Zhenye's kung fu also surpassed these masters, but he was not satisfied, so he went everywhere to kick the gym, the so-called boxing is not strong, Jiang Zhenye is young and strong, kung fu is good, and he beat all over Luozhou invincible for a while.

Jiang Zhenye was a young man, he couldn't help but be a little arrogant, and his family was rich, and there were many bad people who deliberately stammered, which made him make a lot of fox friends and dog friends, and a group of people ate and drank all day long, rampant in the township, Jiang Zhenye also got the nickname of "Little Overlord", and many people privately said that Jiang Zhenye was a tyrant in Luozhou.

Jiang Weiguo was very worried when he heard that his son's reputation was declining, and said to Jiang Zhenye, but Jiang Zhenye couldn't listen to him at all, and wanted to teach him a lesson. Jiang Weiguo was very sad, and only blamed himself for being busy with business and disciplining his son too little.

After a long time, my heart became depressed. Jiang Weiguo fell ill, as soon as he fell ill, Jiang Zhenye was a gentleman who couldn't do anything but fight, and his family business was a little ruined, but Jiang Zhenye didn't care, he still went his own way, he caused trouble before, and his father came forward to settle it, but now Jiang Weiguo is sick in bed, and he has no energy to cover him anymore.

This winter, just after a heavy snowfall, Jiang Zhenye made an appointment with a few fox friends and dog friends to go hunting in the wild, and just led the hound out of the house, he saw an old man coming from the front, the old man was short, his face was wrinkled, but he was only wearing a single coat in winter.

"You are Jiang Zhenye?" The old man walked five steps in front of Jiang Zhenye and stopped and asked.

"I know that the master dares to stand in the way, be careful that I let the dog bite you old thing." Jiang Zhenye wanted to rush to the meeting, and he didn't want to talk to this strange old man too much, so he wanted to scare him away.

"I heard that your kung fu is good, but I can't imagine that it's just a one-man dog fight." The old man said contemptuously.

When did Jiang Zhenye be said this, and suddenly the fire rose. "So you're here to fight?"

"Small things, not big people, not small breath. When you get on the ground, you'll know who's hitting whom. ”

"Since you want to die, I won't stop you, you can do it, don't let people say that I bullied the old man."

Jiang Zhenye saw that the old man was sick, his face was sallow, his back was bent, he was as thin as firewood, and his body was so thin that he couldn't look like he could be blown away by the wind. Thinking that the old man must be a madman, he rushed to him, and grabbed him himself, and threw him to the side of the road, without bothering him much. So I made up my mind to wait for the old man to do it first.

The old man was not in a hurry, took off the felt hat on his head, dusted it, and said slowly: "I am a guest from afar, and I should not have taken the lead, but since you said it, then I will also be a guest and the host, but in order not to let people say that I am bullying the small, I will first explain the tricks I want to use in the future, and explain it to you, so that you can parry." Listen carefully, I used the Danfeng Chaoyang with a split palm. ”

After speaking, the old man jumped over a distance of five steps as soon as he took a stride, and when he arrived in front of Jiang Zhenye, he sat on the horse with a heavy shoulder, split out with one palm, and entered the middle palace.

Jiang Zhenye knew that he was not a crazy old man, but a person with real kung fu, so he didn't dare to slack off, blocked the frame with his left hand, wanted to seal the old man's palm, and at the same time punched the old man's temple with his right hand, but it was also strange, only to feel that the old man's hand trembled, and his left hand involuntarily reversed. And the old man's palm momentum did not stagnate, he used his wrist to support Jiang Zhenye's left hand, pushed it over together, and slashed his chest. Jiang Zhenye's left hand was turned over, his palm was facing the sky, and he had nowhere to use his strength. And the old man's hand was obviously shorter than Jiang Zhenye's, but before Jiang Zhenye's fist hit him, he slapped him in the chest.

Jiang Zhenye only felt a pain in his chest, and he took seven or eight steps back in a row before he unloaded the palm power, but his face was flushed, his blood was churning, his throat was sweet, and a mouthful of blood gushed up, he knew that he had suffered internal injuries, but he swallowed this mouthful of blood again.

Although he was defeated in one move, Jiang Zhenye was not convinced, feeling that he was too light on the enemy just now to give the old man a chance. Splitting the palm is not a profound martial art, and I have dabbled in it.

This way of palm pay attention to throughput and telescopic, long and far, loop folding, virtual and real round trip, move beads, with attack and fierce advance. It advocates to fight fast and slow, to fight long and short, and to flash into roses. And their best "ten-shaped fist" step is steady, hard bridge and hard horse, to convince people, to win with power, fist hard to fight straight up, strength through the body, strong and powerful, to deal with the most suitable to deal with the splitting palm.

So he shouted to the old man: "Just now, the master was not careful, I was afraid that you would not be beaten by an old bone, and only used three points of strength, this time I am not welcome, let's come again." ”

Jiang Zhenye thought to himself, this old man's body is not made of pig iron, three punches and two kicks, he is not afraid that he will not be able to kill him. Even though he has dexterous hands and feet, I have such a strong body and such sufficient strength, as the saying goes, I beat the master to death with random punches.

Jiang Zhenye thought like this in his heart, and became much more courageous, rolled up his sleeves, revealing two thick and solid arms with protruding muscles, and waved them a few times in the air, and the bones around him clicked.

At this time, there were already many onlookers in the alley, and everyone saw such a strong physique, coupled with his kung fu is famous, he really has the spirit of taming lions and fighting elephants. They all sighed secretly, this old man really doesn't know each other, why bother to touch the moldy head of this little overlord, this time he is really going to be unlucky.

This time, Jiang Zhenye didn't dare to hold it up, so he decided to strike first, rushed up and shouted, which was a fierce move in the ten-shaped fist "Double Bow and Tiger", and the ten-shaped fist is also one of the Hong fists. Jiang Zhenye came fiercely, and two bowl-sized fists slammed into the old man.

The old man did not retreat, lowered his body, and cut Jiang Zhenye's knee with one palm. Jiang Zhenye took a half step back and let go of this palm, this time he didn't dare to parry the old man's palm, and the old man turned to the left again, facing Jiang Zhenye's right fist is a hook.

Jiang Zhenye said in his heart, it's good to come. I had enough strength to return the old man's palm with a punch, who wanted the old man to have no strength in this hand, and he went around Jiang Zhenye's back with a take-off, and then grabbed Jiang Zhenye's elbow with a backward swing, and as soon as the strength of his arm was loosened and tightened, Jiang Zhenye's arm was turned over to his back. Pushing further, Jiang Zhenye's fist was too strong just now, and his body rushed forward, and as soon as he was pushed in the back, the person fell to his knees.

Jiang Zhenye knelt in the snow, his left hand turned on his back, and his right hand supported the ground, but the old man's arm like a fine hemp rod seemed to be cast in iron, firmly restraining Jiang Zhenye's left arm and pressing it on his back, as if he had the strength of a thousand jun, and he couldn't move.

Jiang Zhenye has always been conceited that he has the ability to tear apart the leopard and tear the tiger, and he has the power to pull out the mountain and carry the mountain, but under the pressure of the old man's hand, let alone stand up, even his right hand began to tremble constantly, and he was about to be unable to support it.

The surrounding onlookers were whispering, and a few people who had been bullied by Jiang Zhenye were shouting loudly. Jiang Zhenye was ashamed and angry, raised his head and shouted at his two hounds: "Bite him!" ”

The two hunting dogs were also matured, and they were well versed in human nature, and as soon as they heard the call of their masters, they immediately pounced on the old man, and Jiang Zhenye also waited for the opportunity to kick backwards with one leg.

The old man laughed strangely: "Little beast, you dare to hurt people." One hand continued to press Jiang Zhenye, and with the other hand, he pointed at each of the two vicious dogs that pounced, and at the same time raised his leg and stepped on Jiang Zhenye's kick.

The two dogs wailed and fell beside Jiang Zhenye, with a finger-sized blood hole on their heads, and red blood and white brain marrow flowed out of the mixture. Jiang Zhenye also screamed, and his leg was trampled off by the old man.

"The master is merciful."

I saw Jiang Weiguo trembling out of the house with the support of his family, just now Jiang Zhenye and the old man were about to fight, someone went in to inform Jiang Weiguo, Jiang Weiguo came out to stop his son from bullying an old man, but who knew that when he came out, he saw that his son was broken by the old man.

"Are you Jiang Weiguo?" The old man asked.

"Exactly, the child has no form, and he collided with the master, it is my fault that my family education is not strict, and I can't raise my godfather, if the master doesn't lose his anger, he will beat me, I am such a son, and I hope that the master will spare him a little life, and my Jiang family is grateful." As he spoke, he fell to his knees.

"Dad stand up, don't beg this old bastard, it's a big deal to kill me, and after eighteen years, I'll be a good man again!" Jiang Zhenye held back the pain and said through gritted teeth.

"Heroes? You are also a good man, when I returned to my hometown to visit friends in Luozhou, I heard that there was a young bully in Luozhou, who oppressed the good and did evil. That's why I'm teaching you a lesson, letting you know that there is still a righteous way in this world! ”

As soon as the old man exerted his strength, Jiang Zhenye could no longer support it, and as soon as his right hand was weak, his whole head was pressed into the snow.

"Evil obstacles! At this time, he is still disrespectful, master, he is young and ignorant, you don't want to be like him. This is a small meaning, as a little apology for us. Jiang Weiguo asked people to withdraw several stacks of money, which was hundreds of thousands.

The old man shook his head, "I'm not for money, alas~ You Jiang Weiguo is also a good name, I don't accept this money, you take it to build bridges and pave roads to do more good deeds, even if you accumulate virtue for your son." ”

After speaking, he pushed his hand, threw Jiang Zhenye in front of Jiang Weiguo, turned around and left.

Jiang Weiguo thanked him again and again, and asked Jiang Zhenye to be helped into the house, but at this time, Jiang Zhenye was already angry and fainted.

Jiang Weiguo invited a famous doctor to help Jiang Zhenye with his bones, but he finally didn't become lame, after this incident, Jiang Zhenye reined in a lot, never went out to make trouble anymore, and hid in the yard all day to practice boxing. Jiang Weiguo was also very comforted in his heart, and felt that it could be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

In the spring of the second year, he set up a family affair for Jiang Zhenye and married a very graceful lady, who was Jiang Jinjiu's mother. After getting married, Jiang Zhenye couldn't stay at home anymore, and often went out, not to fight, but to visit famous teachers.

He was beaten by the mysterious old man that time, and he was not angry afterwards, but felt suddenly enlightened, compared with the old man, his kung fu bullshit is not, it turns out that there is such a profound martial arts in this world, especially the old man pierced the hound's skull with one finger, what a powerful kung fu this is.

The more Jiang Zhenye thought about it, the more confused he became, and he only felt that he had lived in vain in the past 20 years and had wasted everything. I regret that I missed the opportunity, I should have grabbed the old man at that time and worshipped him as a master, but now I can't find anyone. But Jiang Zhenye thought to himself, in this world, there are more than one or two masters, as long as he has perseverance, he will definitely be able to find other masters, worship masters, and learn real kung fu.

So I often go out, sometimes to the market, sometimes to the deep mountains and old forests. The more I can't find him, the more I have to look for him, and the more obsessed I am with martial arts.

Jiang Weiguo is angry and anxious, but there is no way, give him money, he wants to go, if he doesn't give him money, he will leave, he will also leave, Jiang Zhenye is very determined, even if he begs along the road, he also wants to find a master to learn kung fu. Jiang Weiguo couldn't bear to let his son suffer outside, so he could only give money, but he gave very little, and hoped that he would not go too far.

In this way, Jiang Zhenye is at home for a few days a year. Jiang Weiguo was already in poor health, and finally died of depression within a few years. But Jiang Zhenye still didn't know how to turn back, and he was bent on visiting famous mountains and rivers to find martial arts masters and magic skills.

After Jiang Weiguo's death, the family business was quickly destroyed by Jiang Zhenye, and Jiang Zhenye had a lot of enemies, he could only take his wife and children to wander around, and the world was his home. But she is a good woman, she has been silently supporting Jiang Zhenye, she feels that her man is a hero who stands up to the sky, she helps people wash and weave cloth, earn household income, and when Jiang Jinjiu was ten years old, she finally became ill and died of illness.

The death of his wife hit Jiang Zhenye very hard. He had a feeling of despair for a while, so he drank heavily all day long and became an alcoholic, but his enthusiasm for martial arts did not completely give up, but poured all his enthusiasm into his son, he did not gain nothing after so many years of wandering, he did learn a lot of great kung fu, but he was not satisfied, he felt that there should be more than these, there must be more powerful martial arts.

During the wake-up for his wife, he sorted out what he had learned all his life and taught Jiang Jinjiu little by little. He not only taught Jiang Jinjiu martial arts, but also taught him the principles of being a man and doing things, not to fail like his own, and sent Jiang Jinjiu to go to school and study. But where is the money to pay for tuition, so Jiang Zhenye went to the black market to play underground black boxing, although his kung fu is high, but after all, he is not young, and he practices foreign boxing, and he has been injured by drinking alcohol over the years, and some of the dark injuries left in the early years have also occurred from time to time, so he is often so scarred that he comes home, and the young Jiang Jinjiu will help him with medicine massage.

Jiang Jinjiu refused to go to school because his father would no longer fight black boxing. He is very stubborn, Jiang Zhenye has no way to take him, he can only buy some books to teach himself, father and son began to wander again, mountain by mountain, fortunately, there is a lot of game in the mountains, Jiang Zhenye has been in the mountains for many years, and he is already a good hunter, that is, when he encounters wild beasts, as long as it is not a group, Jiang's father and son are not afraid, Jiang Zhenye sometimes does not make a move, let his son fight with the tiger wolf. Practice real fighting kung fu.

One day, Jiang Zhenye was teaching Jiang Jinjiu to recite Tang poems, and suddenly muttered to himself as if he was enchanted, then laughed, picked up Jiang Jinjiu and threw it into the air, and then took it, threw it, and shouted: "I understand, I understand." ”

It turned out that when Jiang Zhenye was reading Li Bai's "Will Enter the Wine", he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and realized a set of internal skills.

He said that Li Bai was originally a swordsman, and it was also recorded in the "New Tang Dynasty Book: The Biography of Li Bai": Li Bai tasted that he had "fifteen good swordsmanship", and once "went to the country with a sword, quit his relatives and traveled far away", "liked vertical and horizontal arts, and fencing was a man".

Jiang Zhenye felt that such a prodigy with both civil and military skills would inevitably integrate his martial arts into his own poems, so as to leave them to future generations. Therefore, he combined his martial arts experience and realized Li Bai's internal strength from this song "Will Enter the Wine".

This idea is really shocking, and the mental method he realized is also incredible, if it were a different person, he would never take this mental method seriously, but Jiang Jinjiu didn't think so, he trusted his father who had depended on him since he was a child, so he listened to his father's guidance and began to practice this set of "Jiangjin Wine Divine Skill" hard, and even changed his name to Jiang Jinjiu.

is such a whimsical martial art, and it was really practiced by Jiang Jinjiu. Chen Jian couldn't help but sigh, the world is so big, there are no surprises! One set is completely Jiang Jinjiu's father's inspiration more than ten years ago. It's really hard for Jiang Jinjiu, he didn't practice to go crazy, but became a generation of masters.
