Chapter 51: Heluo

Although this person came and went without a trace, Su Ming could also guess it. At the foot of Wudang Mountain, a Wudang boxing technique has reached the top of the world, and nine times out of ten he is the senior of Shen Feiyunmen, because he saved Shen Feiyun at the beginning, and came to enlighten himself.

This gift is very heavy. Although he did not really pass on Su Ming's martial arts practice, fighting methods, breathing and other kung fu, it broke through the fog for Su Ming, allowing him to glimpse a higher realm, and at the same time see the road ahead.

Seeing this person practicing Liangyi Boxing, Tai Chi Thirteen Styles, and Wuji Boxing, Su Ming's whole person was addicted to it, so he simply found a Taoist temple in Wudang Mountain, spent some money as an offering, and stayed. In the quiet and natural atmosphere of Wudang Mountain, I watch the sunrise and sunset, the moon rise and set every day, ponder the boxing technique wholeheartedly, devote myself to it, and forget some things in the outside world, just as Confucius said, "March does not know the taste of meat".

When he first arrived at Wudang Mountain, it was only mid-July. Under this day and moon practice, the whole person almost forgot the passage of time and the change of seasons.

Early that morning, Su Ming finished practicing pile skills and wandered in the mountains again. He cultivated hard for many days, only to feel that the realm in front of him was already in front of him, but for some reason it was always like a veil apart, vague and indistinguishable.

Standing in a Taoist temple, looking up at the blue sky and white clouds, I saw a bird flying in the sky, and when I passed by, I threw down a stone. The pebble fell into the pond in front of him, plopped up, and the ripples spread softly in a silent circle.

Su Ming stared at the ripples, as if he suddenly understood something, and immediately grabbed a handful of stones and slowly threw them into the pond one by one. Then I saw ripples, with the stone falling point as the center of the circle, spreading out in all directions.

This seemingly simple scene made Su Ming tired of it, throwing a handful of stones on the left and a handful of stones on the right into the pond one by one. The ripples continued, as if gently rippling in his heart, dredge and clean up all the feelings and understandings he had felt for more than three months.

Until dusk and the sun set, Su Ming suddenly laughed, and the whole person suddenly put on a shelf, his hands were clenched into a hammer, and between the waves, the strong wind was blowing, like an invincible general in ancient times, wielding two big hammers.

Among the boxing methods, the long fist attacks, and the hammering method is respected. This hammer character is found in many boxing techniques such as Baji, Taiji, Bagua, Xingyi, etc. For example, the basic hand shape of Bajiquan has palm, fist, hook, hammer, etc., Tai Chi has five hammers, Bagua has fast hammering, and there are miscellaneous hammers in Xingyi, all of which are palms into hammers.

Most boxing methods, at the beginning, are to hit people with fists, palms, elbows, etc., until the person who practices martial arts has mastered the kung fu before he can use the hammering method to hit people.

Hammering and fisting are different, pinching and hammering, punching to be hollow, the moment it is issued, to pinch in the joints, and then up and down the body, three sections, four tips, and five organs all cooperate, explosion and concussion. In terms of strength, it can be called the first among all kinds of long fists.

However, it is very difficult to hammer the force. When you strike out, you must go up and down your body, and your skin, muscles, muscles, and internal organs all vibrate together, like a dragon raising water and the wind blowing a tree. When you hit someone, your whole body has to move, and ordinary boxers can't beat this strength.

What Su Ming understands now is this thrashing strength. When he was at the Whampoa Military Academy, Su Ming and Han Huachen practiced, but after a dozen strokes, Su Ming felt that his blood was rolling, his ears were roaring, and his eyes were full of stars, which was difficult to support. Of course, it is because Han Huachen's realm is higher, and punching is also one of the reasons.

The ancestors of boxing, many of them are characters who have really been on the battlefield, and they have seen and even become invincible generals on the battlefield.

This hammer is based on the sledgehammer used on the battlefield. is like Li Yuanba in "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", who is good at beating drums and urns and golden hammers, 400 catties each, weighing a total of 800 catties. Against the enemy on the battlefield, when he saw someone, he was a hammer, and he was fierce to the extreme, and he was known as the first good man in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

In addition to the fierce force, there is also a layer of concussive power when beating people. A little force, spread all over the body, just like the ripples in the water that Su Ming saw before, a little contact, spread out, and shake the whole body. is also like Li Yuanba beating people with a hammer, and once he hammers it out, even if the enemy uses weapons to resist, it is useless. Once contacted, the force was shaken by a little and spread all over the body, even the people with their weapons were shocked and flying, or they were simply shocked to death.

The strength of this hammering method is extremely fierce, but it can spread out all over the body like a circle, shattering the opponent's qi and blood, muscles, muscles and bones, and even the internal organs, even if you resist, it is useless.

A master like Han Huachen hits people, hitting the arm and other parts, and a fierce strength can also spread throughout the body, breaking the opponent's muscles and internal organs, and it is extremely powerful.

Among the many boxing techniques, although there are differences in practice and fighting methods, and there are also differences in the methods of practicing internal strength, they are all the same when they reach this extremely high realm. Tai Chi, Bagua, Xingyi, and Baji may be different in the way they are beaten, but this principle is almost the same.

Just like the support hammer commonly used by Su Ming in the fight, there is a thrashing style in it, but the kung fu was still shallow before, and this effect could not be played. If it were now, it wouldn't have been so hard to fight with Kalisler.

Realizing this, Su Ming was naturally in a happy mood, and he couldn't wait to look up to the sky and roar. Looking around, I saw that under the afterglow of the setting sun, the leaves of the trees turned yellow and fell, a scene of golden autumn.

When I went back to the Taoist temple where I lived, I found out that before I knew it, more than three months had passed, and it was already the beginning of November. Stayed overnight, and the next morning, I thanked the Taoist chief of the Taoist temple and went down to Wudang Mountain.

After Su Ming went down the mountain, he went all the way north, inquiring as he went, and only then did he know that the Second Zhifeng War had been fought for nearly two months, and when he went down the mountain, it had just ended.

The war began in September, with the outbreak of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang War between Qi Xieyuan, a warlord of Jiangsu, and Lu Yongxiang, a warlord of Zhejiang, of Anhui. Zhang Zuolin sent a telegram to the whole country, condemning the direct line of Cao Kun and Wu Peifu for attacking Anhui, and in the name of aiding Lu Yongxiang, he organized the "Zhenwei Army", appointed himself as the commander-in-chief, and commanded about 150,000 Feng troops to march in the direction of Shanhaiguan, Chifeng, and Chengde, starting the second Zhifeng War.

At that time, the fighting was fierce, and some positions had changed hands repeatedly. In the end, with the direct Feng Yuxiang defection, he overthrew the rule of President Cao Kun, the direct line was defeated, and the Feng family won a big victory, and the **** also fell into the hands of Zhang Zuolin of the Feng family.

This war was the first time in modern Chinese history that the navy and air force participated in and played a major role, and new weapons such as tanks appeared one after another, and the use of heavy artillery, heavy machine guns, and mines was rare in previous wars, and more than 50,000 people were killed and wounded, which was very tragic.

Su Ming saw these news in the newspaper, and he was helpless. In this period when warlords are fighting each other, he cannot change the status quo on his own. Along the way, even in Henan, it was inevitably affected by the war, and refugees were often displaced, and even refugees died on the road due to hunger and cold.

The country is in trouble, and the people are struggling to make a living.

You can only help a handful when you can. The traverser is not a god, at least not the current Su Ming, who has no power to return to heaven after seeing the suffering in this world.

Su Ming went to Luoyang, the western capital, and saw the style of this one of the four ancient capitals of China, and admired the magnificence of the Longmen Grottoes. It's just that at this time it is already late November, and the weather is getting colder, and you can't see the graceful and gorgeous scenery of "only the peony is true to the country, and the flowers move the capital when the flowers bloom".

From Luoyang to the east, just one day, I came to Heluo Road at this time, that is, Gongyi City in later generations, and it is also the birthplace of the oldest and most far-reaching Heluo culture in China.

At present, the river water has not yet frozen, Su Ming walked all the way, until the edge of the Yellow River and the Luo River, he saw that the Yellow River water was turbid, and the Luo River water was clear. The confluence of the two rivers, one clear and one turbid, rushing and roaring, under the impact, the water flow rotates, forming a natural Taiji diagram. That strange and vast, vast and rushing scene deeply shocked Su Ming, if he didn't see it with his own eyes, how could he know that the creation of heaven and earth could be so magical?

Heluo Miaoli is actually the principle of Tai Chi. It's just that the confluence of this river and Luo is a natural formation of heaven and earth, and it is not comparable to any artificial being. Standing here, watching the confluence of the two rivers, experiencing the severity, urgency, turbidity, rigidity and softness, as if all kinds of Tai Chi and two instruments, heaven and earth are all in the heart.

At the beginning, the boxing method imitated the divine consciousness of tigers, bears, eagles, cranes and other animals, and later, based on their respective theories, they were able to show a broader and deeper artistic conception, such as the artistic conception of Tai Chi expressed by Heluo.

The ancients talked about Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, all of which were about the understanding of heaven and earth and the world. It is as if many philosophies in later generations seem to be useless, but they support mankind's extensive understanding of the universe and the world.

It is rumored that Chen Jiagou, where Yang Lu learned Zen art, is not far from here. Yang Luchan has been here for a long time, and he has practiced Tai Chi very wonderfully, and he is true to the Tao. In particular, Yang Luchan was also honored by Mr. Sun Lutang as having the realm of "not seeing, hearing and aware", which is the legendary "sincere way, you can know in advance".

Su Ming is here, and he lives for half a month. In the past half a month, he went to the confluence of the two rivers every day, either quietly watching, or boxing by the river. He drank the cold and piercing waters of Luoshui, touched the turbidity and gentleness of the Yellow River, and even went into the water himself, to the confluence of the two rivers, and felt the countless whirlpools of large or small, rapid or slow, positive or negative, impacting up and down his body, that strange feeling.

Gradually, Su Ming felt that his spirit was slowly constricted, and his edge was gradually hidden. The whole person seems to have turned into a circle, without edges and corners at all, but once it is stimulated, it is violent and earth-shattering.
