"Luo Gen, have you reached the early stage of Yi Jin?"

"Yes, master!"

"Good, good, good!" Huo Yuanjia said four good things in a row, and he was indeed very satisfied with his big apprentice.

"From today onwards, I will teach you Yi Jin's Tuna and a set of boxing techniques!"

"Thank you, master!" It's been a year and a half, and I'm finally able to learn systematic boxing, and Logan is very happy.

"You are now in the early stage of Yijin, as a teacher, I will first talk to you about the three realms of martial arts, that is, to practice refinement and qi; practice qi and transform gods; Practice is still empty. ”

"Refining and refining qi means that after a long period of exercise, at the beginning of the initial stage, single-mindedness, concentration and calmness (to the void pole, keep quiet) will be achieved naturally, and luck will go back and forth into a cycle, endlessly, endlessly. Cultivating Qi and transforming God is to combine Qi and God on the basis of refining and refining Qi, so that Qi can be classified into the cultivation stage of God. The main point is to use consciousness to adjust the distribution and operation of internal qi in order to increase strength. Refining the gods is also empty, also known as Shangguan, nine years of passing. It refers to a state of transcendence, which is the third stage of martial arts cultivation, that is to say, from the previous physical cultivation to spiritual cultivation, and legend has it that the Bodhidharma Patriarch reached this state after nine years of facing the wall. After that, there is also the legendary realm of refining the void and merging the Tao, the so-called "breaking the void, you can see God", and its most basic concept is to forget the stagnation of all things, so that the self can transcend both the physical body and the self itself. ”

"Master, isn't the cultivation speed of different fists different?"

"Yes, it is very difficult for external martial arts and hard qigong to enter the practice of qi and transform gods, at least several times the difficulty of internal martial arts."

"It's so hard!"

Huo Yuanjia nodded and continued: "Let's go back to the three-step kung fu, Yi Gu is followed by Yi Jin, Yi Gu and Yi Jin are just relative, you can see Yi Gu as refining a force outside, and Yi Jin is refining a force inside, so those who are easy to bone hurt people on the surface of the body, and those who are easy to muscle hurt people and destroy the meridians, you must be careful when you meet a master of Yi Jin!" ”

"It's the master!" Thomas Logan now knows the importance of meridians for a martial artist, so after listening to Huo Yuanjia's words, Rogan did not dare to be cautious, although modern medicine cannot find the existence of meridians, but both traditional Chinese medicine and national art have proved that meridians do exist.

"If you want to enter the Yi Jin, you need to train the strength all over the body, and finally practice it into the meridians from the outside to the inside, this is the Yi Jin!"

"After that, it is easy marrow, and those who are easy to tendon want to enter the easy marrow realm and easy bones to enter the easy marrow are the same, they also need to refine the meridians of the whole body and temper the body bones.

Speaking of this, Huo Yuanjia punched a wooden stake next to him.

"Bang ......"

The stake did not break, but the place where Huo Yuanjia's fist hit him in the middle was pierced by a hole, and sawdust flew all over the place, this visual impact on Thomas Rogan was too great, if it hit someone, then ......

"Master, what is this?"

"This is the marrow, to enter the marrow, you have to go through the Book of Changes, refining bones, washing the marrow, after all three are completed, it is said that he is the grandmaster!" Huo Yuanjia looked at his fist, there was some pride and yearning in his eyes, more of a fighting spirit.

At this time, Thomas Logan knew that Huo Yuanjia's realm was Yi Marrow, and he should have entered it a month ago, which made Huo Yuanjia have a earth-shaking change.

"It's still early for you, take your time first, don't be too ambitious, today I will teach you the method of vomiting, and tomorrow morning I will teach you the method of boxing!"

"It's the master!"

"The method of spitting up the tendon is different from what I taught you before, you have to practice both, you can't drop it, tie up the horse and ......."

Just like Thomas Logan learning Zama on the first day, today Huo Yuanjia also pointed his finger at Logan's body and taught him to practice the art of tuna......

An hour later, Luo Gen had completely mastered the method of breathing taught to him by Huo Yuanjia, and this time it was more complicated than the previous one, combining breathing, movement, and consciousness.

In the afternoon, the martial arts training ground.

With Huo Yuanjia's nine consecutive victories, Huo Yuanjia has more and more apprentices, but unlike Luo Gan, they are all outer disciples who kowtow to tea. Huo Yuanjia has only accepted two inner disciples so far, including Thomas Rogan.

There are too many people, and Huo Yuanjia can't teach Luo Gen one by one like teaching Rogan, he will check it regularly, but more importantly, he will be supervised by a new inner disciple he has recently accepted.

The disciple's name was Liu Zhensheng. Liu Zhensheng, whose real name is Liu Qingshun, is Zhensheng, lost his father at an early age, and later remarried with his mother to Jinghai County, Tianjin, and never returned to his hometown for the rest of his life. During this period, Liu Zhensheng got acquainted with a boss surnamed Liu in Leting County, and recognized him as his father-in-law, under the introduction of his father-in-law, he was accepted as a disciple by Huo Yuanjia in the 22nd year of Guangxu (1896), and taught him the Huo family boxing of "passing on the inside but not outside". Liu Zhensheng is actually the prototype of Chen Zhen. After Huo Yuanjia was killed in the official history, Liu Zhensheng temporarily took over Jingwumen, and then became a monk, no longer known as Liu Zhensheng, but only said that his name was Liu Qingshun, and since then Liu Zhensheng has mysteriously disappeared in the rivers and lakes.

In this world, a month ago, Huo Yuanjia went out for a trip, and then brought back Liu Zhensheng, unlike other senior brothers, Liu Zhensheng was apprenticed with art, and he had reached the late stage of Yi Gu.

Bringing art apprenticeship, this is a special existence in the martial arts, generally speaking of a "loyalty" in the sect, bringing art apprenticeship to a certain extent represents disloyalty, generally will not accept such apprentices, but if it is accepted, it proves that this person has something special or other hidden feelings. Therefore, Liu Zhensheng is a very unique existence among many disciples, and his combat effectiveness is relatively high, and he also urges those outer disciples except Thomas Logan to practice.

If you look at it in the order of entry, he should be ranked after the twenty, but those people in the outer gate can't call him junior brother, because he is an inner disciple, and the senior brother is Thomas Rogan, so Liu Zhensheng was called the second senior brother among many senior brothers.

"Second Senior Brother, you are teaching us a few moves today, how do you fight this boxing technique?"

"Okay, today I'll teach you a trick to strike the sky!"

"No, stretch your hand forward, and then go forward, yes, so that you have momentum, yes, eyes, pay attention, eyes must be in place."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, that's right!"

"Second Senior Brother, you are so powerful, you know so many boxing skills, we have been apprenticed for so long, and we have not learned such boxing skills!"

"It's just that every day is standing on a pile, it's so boring! When will you be able to win nine consecutive victories like your master! ”

"Don't say nine consecutive wins, if there is a three-game winning streak, I will die without regrets!"

"That's it, Second Senior Brother, if you go to fight, it should be easy to win three consecutive victories!"

"Where, I'm not that good yet, but I won two consecutive victories when I was in the capital before!" Liu Zhensheng said modestly.

"Wow, Senior Brother Liu is so powerful, he can win two consecutive victories in the capital, let alone Jinmen, Second Senior Brother, we will rely on you to cover it in the future!"

"Well said, well said!"

Liu Zhensheng smiled and said modestly, but a trace of pride flashed in his eyes.

"Do you say that the senior brother is powerful or the second senior brother is powerful?" An outer disciple who had just apprenticed yesterday asked curiously.

Then the scene suddenly fell silent.

Thomas Logan knows it, but they don't know it very well, because Logan doesn't have much contact with these juniors, and he spends almost all of his time on practice, so everyone is estranged.

"How can the senior brother be as powerful as the second senior brother, the senior brother was an ordinary person two years ago, powerless, I didn't know what was wrong at the time, so I worshipped the master as a teacher, he was lucky, he was the senior brother!"

A relatively thin-looking young man said with some disdain.

"That's right, where is he the opponent of the second senior brother, he can't even beat me, why should he be a senior brother!"

"Senior Brother Zhao, be cautious!"

"This is originally a fact, Master Huo Daxia relied on his fists to subdue Jinmen, we should also be ranked according to martial arts, why did the senior brother let him do it, second senior brother, I think you should be the senior brother, we will serve you!"

"That's it!"

"Makes sense!"
