Chapter 8 Progress
Time flies quickly, and it has been a year and a half since Thomas Rogen came to this world, and he has roughly figured out the timeline of this world, because just half a year ago, Huo Yuanjia's daughter Huo Cui was born.
Logan still remembers that the little girl died in the hands of Qin Ye's son in the movie, and the movie didn't say how old she was, but it seems that she should be five or six years old at that time, which means that Huo Yuanjia will not leave until five or six years away.
This world is roughly the same as the history that Thomas Logan knows, there are the Opium Wars, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Westernization Movement, and the fancy failed uprisings of Sun Cannon, but it has not yet reached the Republic of China, and there are still nearly ten years before the Xinhai Revolution.
The biggest change in the past year and a half is in Huo Yuanjia and Thomas Rogan.
Huo Yuanjia has been in the ring once every four or five months since Luo Gen first apprenticed, and now he has been in the ring every two or three months, every time it is a life and death ring, and his opponent is getting stronger and stronger. But at the same time, Huo Yuanjia's strength is also improving, although Luo Gen can't say it specifically, he can feel it, especially two months ago, Huo Yuanjia retreated for a week, and then gave Luo Gen the feeling that Huo Yuanjia's whole person was reborn.
In the past year and a half, Logan's progress has also been obvious, Zamabu originally needed to concentrate for three years to achieve something according to Huo Yuanjia's requirements, but Thomas Rogen's talent and hard work completely exceeded Huo Yuanjia's expectations, and he met his requirements in a year and a half.
"Drink! Ha! ”
"Bang ......" Logan punched the thick wooden stake stick at the mouth of the teacup, and wiped the sweat with the corner of his clothes.
Through this period of study, Luo Gen knew that there are three changes in Dandao, that is, practicing refinement and refining qi; Refining gas and turning gods, refining gods and returning to nothingness. Boxing also has three easy, that is, easy bones, easy tendons, and easy marrow, which Huo Yuanjia told Thomas Rogan, in fact, he also knew that the late boxer Guo Yunshen said when he talked about Xingyi boxing: There are three layers of truth in boxing, there are three steps of kung fu, and there are three kinds of practice. The truth is to practice refining and refining qi; practice qi and transform gods; Practice the gods and return to the void (practice to change the temperament of the person, and restore the truth of its nature). The three-step kung fu is easy to bone, practice it to build its foundation, to strengthen its body, the bone body is as strong as iron stone, and the form and temperament, majestic like Mount Tai; Easy tendons, practice to Teng its membrane, to grow its tendons (vulgar cloud: tendons grow strong), its strength vertical and horizontal contact, growth and infinity; Wash the marrow, practice it to clear the void inside, to relax its body, the image of the void in the inside, the use of spiritual energy, the round life without stagnation of the body movement, its light as a feather. The three kinds of practice are bright strength, practice is always in the rules is not easy, the body movement should be smooth and not obedient, the ups and downs of the hands and feet should be neat and not scattered, the fist through the clouds: "the square is in it" that is, this meaning; Dark energy, the spirit of practice should be stretched and not restrained, and the use should be round and lively and not sluggish. Fist Jingyun: "The round one should be outside" is also this meaning; Turning strength, practicing the limbs around the body, ups and downs, advance and retreat can not be focused, and it is used exclusively with divine will. Although it is the use of divine will, the formal rules are still the same as the first two and cannot be changed. Although the whole body does not move and turn, it cannot be completely without strength, it is always in the ears of God's will. Boxing Jingyun: "Three rounds and nine turns are one type" is also the meaning of this.
Logan once mentioned to Huo Yuanjia the division of bright energy, dark energy, and chemical energy, Huo Yuanjia scoffed at this, and he said to Thomas Rogen: "People are a whole, and martial arts training is to strengthen the body, change the physique, and develop potential, and should not complicate simple problems." ”
"Senior brother, the master is going to the ring, do you want to go over and have a look!"
"Okay, I'll change my clothes and I'll be right away!"
For more than a year, Huo Yuanjia has also accepted more than a dozen disciples, and like Luo Gan, they are all young people who are enthusiastic after Huo Yuanjia won the ring, but these people Huo Yuanjia all attributed them to the outer gate.
Because Thomas Logan was Huo Yuanjia's first disciple, the few people who received it later called Logan a senior brother.
Seongdong Ring.
"The letter of life and death has been signed, the victory or defeat is in the person, life and death are in the sky, two martial artists, the game begins!"
is still the old man, he is also a martial artist who practices internal family boxing, and his seniority in Jinmen is very high, even Huo Yuanjia has to call him a master, and because of his high seniority, he will be the witness of the martial arts competition.
This time he fought with Huo Yuanjia in the ring was the owner of the Tianpeng Martial Arts Hall in the south of the city, and the martial art he practiced was Xingyi Boxing.
Xingyi Quan emphasizes the fighting consciousness of daring to win and moving forward bravely, which is simply to attack and fight, at least Thomas Logan has only seen this hall owner to this extent.
As soon as he made a move, Thomas Logan knew that this person was not Huo Yuanjia's opponent, and now Huo Yuanjia has begun to have the demeanor of a master, because it is different from what Logan saw for the first time, and now he no longer takes the initiative to attack.
As for why he didn't take the initiative to attack and was a master, this Thomas Rogan said that he was too deeply harmed by the plot of film and television dramas in his previous life, even if he now knows that this is wrong, but he still subconsciously thinks so.
The owner of the hall used the most lethal cannon fist in Xingyi boxing to attack Huo Yuanjia, the cannon fist was strong and violent, and the momentum was compelling, so it was named, and it was the most ferocious boxing method in Xingyi boxing.
However, in the face of such a punch, Huo Yuanjia did not avoid it, so he directly punched the coming fist to meet it, which was a hard connection.
When the hall owner saw Huo Yuanjia doing this, he was overjoyed, he knew the power of the cannon fist best, and he also had long-distance charging, Huo Yuanjia directly had no charging power at all with one punch.
"Dare to underestimate me, go die!"
"Da Da Da ......"
Unlike what people imagined, after the two fists touched together, Huo Yuanjia didn't move at all, but the Xingyi Boxing Gym Master took seven or eight steps back before stopping.
He put his hands behind his back, looking like a master, but the hand behind his back rubbed vigorously, this is a good-looking person. However, it was obvious that he had forgotten one thing, and that was that the ring was round, and he didn't realize that what he thought was a secret move was actually clearly seen by the audience.
"Hahaha......" The people in the audience burst into laughter.
After hearing the laughter, the man's face turned red in an instant, and he rushed towards Huo Yuanjia again in a fit of rage, about to wash away this shame, but the difference in strength between the two was too big, and it could not be reversed by Guan Gong's possession.
Five rounds later, the man was forced out of the ring by Huo Yuanjia.
"Huo Yuanjia wins!"
"Master Huo is doing well!"
"Huo Yuanjia, Huo Yuanjia, when will you become the first in Tianjin! Just today, just today! ”
"Master Huo has won nine consecutive victories, it's really amazing!"
"yes!"
Huo Yuanjia smiled and hugged his fists at the fathers and villagers in Jinmen.
"Master!"
"Well, Luo Gen, you are also here, let's go, let's go to Guyue Tower, if we don't get drunk tonight, we won't return!"
"It's the master!" Thomas Logan naturally did not discourage Huo Yuanjia's interest at this time, and went to Guyue Tower with all his junior brothers, this is the habit after every Huo Yuanjia wins, and he must go to Guyue Tower to celebrate.
Guyue Building.
"Uncle Nongshi!"
"Luo Gen, Yuan Jia won again?"
"Yes!"
In the past year and a half, Thomas Logan and Nong Jinsun have a good relationship, both are scholars, and Logan has more than a hundred years of knowledge than him, and the two have a good chat.
When the two came out, Thomas Logan saw the scene in the movie, and more than a dozen people ran to Guyue Tower to find Huo Yuanjia to apprentice.
"Okay, good, all good men, I took it all, came to drink this bowl of wine, and we will be brothers in the future!"
"Yes!"
Nong Jinsun looked at Huo Yuanjia and frowned, he was a scholar, although he was friends with Huo Yuanjia for eight years, and he did not look down on people who practiced martial arts, but Huo Yuanjia accepted apprentices indiscriminately like this, and he was a little dissatisfied.
"Uncle Nong, let's talk another day, I'll go to the master's side first!"
"Okay, go over!"
That night, Huo Yuanjia drank very happily, on the surface, it seemed that the person he defeated this time was not an ordinary martial artist, this person had won seven consecutive victories in the ring, but Thomas Rogan could feel that Huo Yuanjia was really happy because of the breakthrough a month ago.
To put it simply, Huo Yuanjia's martial arts attainments have not changed since that time.
The next day, Thomas Logan went to the martial arts training ground on time at four o'clock in the morning to practice martial arts, but he didn't wait for Huo Yuanjia, and when he had breakfast at six o'clock, Logan saw Huo Yuanjia.
This is the first time since Thomas Logan apprenticed that he didn't see Huo Yuanjia get up early to practice martial arts.
