From the consignment store to the Liangshui Master's house, there are seven twists and turns, but it is only three or four hundred meters, and it will take a while. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Liangshuishi's house is an old courtyard, which is the only ancestral property of his family.

The old courtyard of the second entrance is not big, the entrance gate is a patio, the cloisters on both sides are connected with several houses, the patio used to be a spacious hall, and there are two wings on the left and right. There is a large shrine on the back wall of the hall, and there are no statues of gods and ancestral tablets. The red paper that used to be pasted with large characters on it has been torn off, presumably at the beginning of the Cultural Revolution, leaving behind traces and faded scraps of broken paper. On both sides of the hall are piles of barrels, windmills, stone mills, and some unused tables, chairs, benches and other miscellaneous items.

I rarely get into his hall, and I don't pay attention to the decorations, but I don't pay attention to them.

The strangers I had brought were sitting on the benches in the hall, and Ou Meiyu, a pale, twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, was half-lying in the bamboo chair that had been brought.

I looked at Ou Meiyu. She is neatly dressed, with small pigtails, a fair little round face is a little thin, and her delicate facial features are very standard. From afar, she caught my gaze, and she seemed to have a sense, and her big black eyes looked back at me.

The Bright Water Master walked over, and except for the little girl on the bamboo chair, the other four stood up with a humble smile on their faces. The bright water master glanced at the little girl and asked what the situation was, and the middle-aged man who walked in front of him at first to ask for directions hurriedly replied.

He said his name was Ou Chengde, and the girl, Ou Meiyu, was his daughter who was crushed by the rafter of the collapsed roof more than two months ago......

Ou Chengde explained the situation to the Liangshui Master in detail, but he did not mention Guzi Mountain and fish and shrimp rain.

The Bright Water Master listened to him quietly and began to examine the injury. The girl, Miyu, injured her right thigh above the knee. The middle-aged woman who came with her was obviously Ou Meiyu's mother, Yang Manxiang, who stepped forward and uncovered the printed quilt covering the girl's legs, revealing a pair of the girl's legs and feet. The girl was wearing a pair of fat army green women's trousers, presumably her mother's, and her mother helped roll up the trouser legs, revealing the wound, and the bright water master straightened up after touching and pinching, and said:

"Your child's leg is crooked, it's not aligned, the hospital is right, it has to be re-operated, I'm afraid it's not easy to treat without a hundred or dozens of dollars."

"Can a hundred or dozens of dollars be cured? Doctor Zeng, you are really a miracle doctor, please help my daughter treat it quickly, one or two hundred yuan, I will make it up for you even if I smash the iron, sell the pot and sell the house......" Ou Chengde rubbed his hands excitedly, and Yang Manxiang had already opened his tears at this time. The two men who came to carry Ou Meiyu were also obviously relieved.

The Bright Water Master glanced at him and said, "I don't want you for this money, you have to choose medicine and decoction." At this time, I knew that I was in a hurry, what did I do earlier? If you came early, you would be alive and well. How much less do children have to suffer? ”

Ou Chengde smiled awkwardly: "Didn't I know that you were old at that time, I was not at home all the year round, and her mother and woman had no opinions, so I was anxious and scared at the time, and my relatives helped send me to the hospital." Alas, who knew that the hospital would be like this, not to mention spending money in vain, and making my daughter suffer ......"

The Liangshui Master ignored him anymore, called Guan Boniang out, and led Yang Manxiang to clean up the room where Huang Shiren had treated his injuries first, and then prepare lunch. Ou Meiyu had to stay at his house for a few days, and she would not be able to go home to recuperate until she was almost well.

"While you are here, you can take a hand and treat the child's injuries first." After speaking, the Bright Water Master entered the house on the side, and when he came out, he held wooden planks, fir leather plywood, gauze, straps, and other objects in his hands. This is similar to when Huang Shiren was treated, except that there is an extra medium-sized hammer.

He put the things away, beckoned the three men to sit down on the wooden bench with Ou Meiyu in his arms, put the plank under the injured leg, tied the upper and lower straps, and commanded:

"Later, the three of you will hold the child in one of them, one will hold the upper part of her leg, and the other will hold her calf, so that she can't move, and I will have to break her leg and reconnect it."

"Huh? …… Discounted re-pick-up "I was taken aback. Looking at the three men, they all looked surprised, especially Ou Chengde, whose faces were already white. Ou Meiyu's face turned even whiter, and her eyes were full of fear, obviously this leg had made her suffer enough.

"What? Scared? Her leg is crooked, who can fix it if she doesn't discount it? The Bright Water Master said lightly.

"Well, isn't that painful? Do you want to inject anesthetics? Ou Chengde asked.

"What anesthetic? I don't have that here. Don't worry, I won't let my children suffer anymore. “

Liangshui Master said, walked over and touched Ou Meiyu's head and said: "Little girl, don't be afraid, your legs are now long and short, if you don't fix well, you will become lame in the future, and a good road will come out of the unevenness, how ugly is it?" Later, Uncle will help you reconnect, it won't hurt, you can rest assured, Uncle won't lie to you. “

Ou Meiyu bit her lip, her gaze unexpectedly firm. She looked up and said to the bright water master with her pale little face: "Uncle, you can fix it, I don't want to be crippled, I am not afraid of pain." “

Her voice was weak, but it was still crisp and beautiful, and I could tell that she was still a little scared. Fine beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead, his long eyelashes blinked, and tears had reached the corners of his eyes, but he couldn't let them flow down.

The bright water master patted her little head, turned around and went to the kitchen to bring out the water at both ends, stood in the patio with his back to the hall, drew two bowls of water for a while, entered the hall, handed the bowl in his left hand to Ou Meiyu for her to drink, and instructed the three of them to press her.

Ou Chengde hugged his daughter's body, and Ou Meiyu buried her head in her father's arms. I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but in retrospect, I remembered that at that moment, although Ou Meiyu's head was hiding in her father's arms, her eyes had been looking at the Bright Water Master from beginning to end. She seemed unusually calm, no fear, only melancholy, and indifference, the fear she had just shown was gone, not at all the expression that a patient under treatment should have, but like a bystander who had gone through vicissitudes and had a heart like water.

The two of them pressed Ou Meiyu's legs respectively according to the Liangshui Master's request. The bright water master took a big sip of water in his left hand, sprayed on her bare thighs with a "poof", and smashed down with a big hammer in his right hand.

I distinctly heard a dull "click", apparently the bones had been broken.

The Bright Water Master threw away the hammer, pinched her thighs with both hands, flicked his fingers, and after a few moments, sprayed two more mouthfuls of water, making the two who were holding her legs and feet let go of their hands and loosen the fixed straps. Then he squinted his eyes and squeezed his hands lightly for a while, applied a layer of plaster-like black paste to her legs, put on a fir leather plywood, wrapped it in an abrasive cloth, straightened up and said to Ou Chengde:

"Alright, carry her to the bed in the house, be careful. And tomorrow you have to go back to the town and go to the district hospital to pick up some medicine, I don't have enough medicine here. “

It was only then that I recovered from the shock, and looked at the back of the Bright Water Master who was walking towards the side house, except for worship and worship. I forgot that Ou Meiyu shouldn't be abnormal.

By this time it was noon, and it was time for me to go home.

During the meal, I told my parents that I would learn boxing from Master Liangshui as a teacher. The parents looked at each other and were stunned for a moment.

My father asked, "Why do you want to learn boxing from him?" “

The mother continued: "What kind of boxing do you learn?" As the old saying goes, learn to fight and fight, what kind of boxing can you learn if you have nothing to do? If you have that spare time, you might as well chop a few more loads of firewood. “

I looked at my mother and was speechless for a moment.

My father looked at my mother and said, "I don't mean that, I mean, how did you think of worshipping your Uncle Liang as a teacher?" Your Uncle Liang has never accepted apprentices, and there are several people in the village who want to apprentice, but he has not accepted any of them, and he will accept you as an apprentice? “

My father said happily: "Okay, your body is a little weak, you can practice hard with Uncle Liang, I don't want you to do anything in the future, at least others don't dare to bully casually, you can also train a strong body." “

The mother was a little hesitant, and Ai Ai said: "It's not that his skills are a little evil, and he will learn it...... Influence, no offspring? “

The father said to the mother: "What kind of mess, the red man just followed him to learn boxing, and didn't learn anything else, how can it be so evil?" You see what else is at home, pack up a few things and come out, I will take the red girl to apprentice at night, in the old days, the apprenticeship required three sacrifices and nine ceremonies, and we can't be empty-handed. ”

The first quarter moon was bright that night, and it was already hanging on the top of the east mountain before it got dark. My father carried a small bag, which contained a piece of bacon prepared by my mother, as well as a piece of silver carp that had been fried a few days ago, and two small packets of dim sum. I hugged an old hen that had just entered the cage and followed my father into the house of the bright water master.

The Bright Water Master is eating at home. Under the dim kerosene light, the brightener Guan Boniang and Ou Chengde and his wife sat around the small dining table in the kitchen. Guan Boniang hurriedly got up and greeted, looking at the things in our hands puzzled, the bright water master understood our intention, waved his hand to let Guan Boniang receive it first, and beckoned his father and said: "Don't get that set, wait and bring it back, come, Prosperity, you sit here, Yulan, add a set of dishes and chopsticks to Brother Prosperity." “

The father hurriedly said, "We have already eaten." “

Liangshui Master said: "I know you have eaten, isn't there a district brother here, sit down and have a glass of wine." “

At this time, the middle-aged man stood up and shouted, "Is it really you, Meng Prosperity?" Your home is in this village? Is this your son? “

The father was stunned: "Yo, it's you?" Ou Chengde, why are you here? That little girl with a broken leg is your daughter? The red lady is called Uncle Ou. ”

I called out, "Uncle Ou." “

Uncle Ou patted my head and smiled, "You are a good man, thanks to him for accompanying us to Dr. Zeng today." “

The bright water master smiled: "Heh, you know each other for a long time!" “

The father replied: "Yes, they are all in the Heping Coal Mine, but they don't work together." He's in the 3rd working area, I'm in the 5th working area, it's a bit far away and it's not common. “

"Come, sit here, since we are acquaintances, we have to have a drink." I couldn't help but say that my father was pulled to sit at the table, and the three of them drank "swoop".

At the dinner table, a few of them chatted while drinking, and the bright water master said to his father that it is a new society, and the old ones are not being promoted. You don't need to kneel and kowtow, and you don't need to call the master. And I'm not an official disciple of him now, it depends on my talent and understanding. There is also whether I can endure hardship, if I am not qualified, he may drive me out at any time and no longer teach me.

Years later, I learned that Uncle Liang was actually trying to protect me. According to the rules, those who can inherit the mantle must be close and trustworthy disciples, and only one of the disciples can inherit the mantle, and the curse of the queenless is only for the heirs, but it is okay for others. My family has three generations of single transmission, and my parents will definitely not be able to accept the consequences after the future, I have not apprenticed, so naturally I cannot be regarded as his disciple, even if I am outstanding in the future, I will not be able to inherit the mantle, of course, re-apprenticeship is another matter, he is to reassure my parents.

Uncle Liang did not accept my apprenticeship, and after dinner he took me into his bedroom and began to teach me. The first step is pile work, that is, standing on the pile and squatting on the horse.

Uncle Liang told me that the one I was going to practice with him was Luohan Boxing, which was passed on to his grandfather by a great monk from the Southern Shaolin Temple in Quanzhou, Fujian. This way of boxing is strong and powerful, pay attention to the stability of the lower plate, and pile gong is the foundation. I was required to practice the pile for an hour in the morning and evening, and only when I could stand on the pile for an hour without shaking in one breath would it be considered a small success, and then I would be taught boxing routines.

Of course, you can't stand on the pile, you have to master the skills, learn to breathe, understand the transformation of breath, practice qi while practicing the pile, so as to realize the conversion of strength and strength as soon as possible, and lay a solid foundation for future boxing.

In his small bedroom, Uncle Liang explained the main points of the stump, and I began to practice, and he corrected the posture and breathing essentials on the side. It looked like a simple stump and squatting step, but in less than a minute at the beginning, my legs and knees were sore, my legs began to tremble, and my breathing was even more difficult to juggle. Uncle Liang said to me solemnly:

"If you learn boxing, you have to endure hardship. This is the beginning, if you feel too bitter, you can not study now, I will not say that you will scold you. If you quit halfway through learning and are afraid of hardship and tiredness, then I won't pay attention to you again in this life, do you say you still want to learn?"

I gritted my teeth and said resolutely: "Uncle Liang, don't worry, no matter how hard and tired I am, I'm not afraid." Even if I'm tired, I have to learn. “

Uncle Liang said, "Okay." From tonight onwards, you will come to my house every night, practice at your house in the morning, and get up at dawn, no less than an hour at a time. I hope you remember what you said well and don't let me down. “

That's how I started my martial arts career. Every morning, I got up at dawn and stood in my yard and squatted on a horse, and went to Uncle Liang's house in the evening to receive his guidance and inspection.

The first few days were exhausting. Especially a pair of legs, sore, swollen and painful, even the toilet is difficult. Uncle Liang gave me a large bag of medicinal herbs and a bottle of medicinal wine, and instructed me to take a bath with medicinal herbs every night after finishing my work, and wipe myself with medicinal wine before going to bed.
