Chapter 8 - Luohan Boxing
The night was deep, and the courtyard was dark, and only the low chirping of insects and birds was heard.
Xiao Ergou was sitting upright at the head of the bed at this time, rummaging over and over the newly obtained cultivation cheats, crossing Erlang's legs, posing an orchid finger for a while, and a flower hand for a while, it didn't seem to be correct, and he didn't know the essentials if he wanted to break his head, and finally fell asleep in a daze.
The next morning—bang, bang... Bang bang bang..."Xi'er... Xi'er, are you up, I'm going to treat you to a good meal of fried pork with bamboo shoots if you don't open the door!" Xiao Tian said as he banged on Xiao Ergou's door outside the door!
At this time, the sky was already bright, it can be said that the sun was three poles, Xiao Tian was waiting at the gate of Xiaojiazhuang with his eyes almost ready to breathe fire, and still did not see the arrival of Xiao Ergou, so he came over to arrest him again!
Xiao Ergou heard Xiao Tian's shout, turned over, and Xili snorted and rolled out of bed, yesterday Xiao Tian told him to gather at the gate of Xiaojiazhuang early this morning, urging himself to cultivate! You have to hurry up and think like a way, otherwise today will not end well!
wiped his face indiscriminately, as for clothes and the like, I forgot to take them off last night, but they are quite neat at the moment.
As he opened the door, he said, "Father, don't blame, it's really not that I deliberately lay in bed, it's just that I have been cultivating last night, but I have never been able to grasp the essentials, and I have never been able to cultivate, and finally I almost lost sleep!
"Insomnia??What is insomnia?" Xiao Tian asked!
Xiao Ergou suddenly remembered that he was now Xiao Xi's identity. They don't know their own language. Quickly explained: "Insomnia is that I have been thinking because I have been unable to cultivate the Fa, and I have never been able to succeed, and then I am depressed and unhappy, causing myself to be unable to sleep. Then I finally fell asleep, and I overslept!"
It turned out that he couldn't sleep at night! Xiao Tian thought that Xiao Ergou was also cultivating for the first time, maybe he was too eager, for fear that something would go wrong with Xiao Ergou, but instead he came over to comfort Xiao Ergou. Where do you still want to invite him to eat fried pork slices with bamboo shoots!
After Xiao Tian took Xiao Ergou to eat some food, he pulled Xiao Ergou and walked outside the village in a hurry!
The blue sky and white clouds outside the village, and the patches of grassland are full of vitality. Father and son walked all the way to the stream. Xiao Tian casually sat on a big stone and said to Xiao Ergou: "It is said that when you and Xiao Hu and the two brothers fought that day, you said that you created your own set of boxing techniques?
"Ah, yes, yes, yes, I'll name him Luohan Boxing!" Xiao Ergou naturally took the boxing method for himself!
"Well, it means that you are quite good? Do you still have another talent for martial arts? Then you play it for your father, look at your so-called Luohan Fist!"
Xiao Ergou usually has the habit of playing a set of Arhat boxing every day, and he has been boxing for more than ten years, or what Xiao Ergou learned from an old monk when he was eating a hundred family meals!
Let me go into a bit of a ramble here. Let's popularize Luohan boxing: Luohan boxing originated in the famous Shaolin Temple in Songshan, Henan, with eighteen Arhat hands, which is famous in the martial arts.
During the Qingming Dynasty, it was introduced to Guangdong by the famous player Sun Yufeng, and later became widely spread because of its exquisite boxing techniques and routines.
Therefore, it is more popular in the Pearl River Delta region today.
Luohan boxing, according to legend, was created by the Tianzhu monk Dharma. Liang Datong Ding Wei, Bodhidharma barefoot into the Central Plains, in the Shaolin Temple to give a speech on Zen Buddhism, see all the monks with yellow muscles and thin muscles, lack of energy, even malaise and sleep, sick and dying, and said: "Although the monks do not focus on the body, they are not allowed to understand the sex, so that the soul is separated." If you want to understand nature, you must first strengthen your body, then your body is strong and your soul is easy to understand. ”
So he created eighteen hands of Arhat Boxing, awarded to the monks, and practiced for only a few months, all of them were full of energy, and this was the beginning.
At that time, the so-called Arhat boxers, only these eighteen hands, were the orthodox patriarchal methods of the Shaolin masters, and the law stopped eighteen hands, and the essence was gathered, without losing the authenticity.
Since the birth of Bodhidharma Zen Master, many famous masters have inherited and played, and its theoretical basis is the Zen method passed on by the first ancestor Bodhidharma: "Do not set up words, do not teach outside the teaching, directly point to the hearts of the people, and become a Buddha by seeing nature." In its practice, it has always embodied the Zen spirit of "no thought for the sect", focusing on breathing and breathing, qi and six veins, guarding the heart and staying in the fate, and stopping the heart from being chaotic, so it is also called "Shaolin Heart Law Arhat Boxing".
There is a poem that says: "Dharma Moses came without a word, all by heart and effort, if you want to find Buddhism in the scriptures, the tip of the pen is dipped in Dongting Lake." "The eighteen hands of the first eighteen hands of the innate Arhat Boxing, each single potential is a pile gong for refining qi, which can make the essence and divine power sufficient, and can make the lower plate stable, both inside and outside, both god and shape, both static and moving, and the kung fu of easy tendon washing is everywhere, and the effect of double cultivation of life can be obtained.
The main techniques are separation, pressing, rushing, flashing, pointing, lifting, pressing, hooking, copying, and throwing. The leg method pays attention to tenching, rolling, sweeping and playing. Luohan boxing requires up and down to follow each other, change with the hand, the body is like a rudder, flexible and changeable, pay attention to "winning" and "protecting the middle", and the strength requires a combination of rigidity and softness. The boxing proverb says: "If you want to be a good arhat, look for it in Sanzheng." The so-called "three positives" means that the hands should be correct, the body should be correct, and the horse (i.e. step) should be correct, which is the basic kung fu. In order to maintain stability, the larger routines in Luohan boxing include "Sixty-eight Arhats" and "One Hundred and Eight Arhats".
So. It was said before that Xiao Xi can cultivate, and the credit of Luohan Boxing is not ambiguous at all, and it has played an indelible role!
Xiao Tian was fascinated, and even made two timely gestures behind Xiao Ergou!
After Xiao Ergou's set of Arhat boxing was finished, Xiao Tian couldn't help but clap his hands and exclaim: "What kind of boxing technique is this, it can be regarded as a profound martial art, amazing, amazing! Could it be that my son has really changed his face and has the supreme talent of cultivation!"
Xiao Ergou heard that it was a chrysanthemum on his face. Smile so brightly. He said continuously: "Hehe." Hit by mistake, hit by mistake. "I thought that this is a treasure of Chinese martial arts, of course, it is broad and profound!
It's just that Xiao Tian could have guessed that Xiao Ergou had so many bends in his heart!
Lang Sheng said: "It seems that my training plan has to be changed, originally in addition to cultivation every day, I will always urge you to cultivate your physique during the day." Originally, I wanted you to run 20 laps around Zhuangzi every day, and then practice squatting and walking for an hour!
Xiao Ergou was terrified when he heard this, but this is not over!
Xiao Tian paused for a moment and then continued: "I think your boxing technique is very good, and it is not an exaggeration to use the treasure of physical fitness.
Therefore, I decided that you need to play this set of boxing ten times a day, run around the Zhuangzi for 20 laps with 50 pounds of sandbags, and then squat on the horse for two and a half hours with weights.
Remember. These will slowly increase every ten days!" Xiao Tian had a smile on his face. I said it with deep thought!
After Xiao Ergou listened to Xiao Tian's words, he even had the heart to eat. I knew this was the case, what kind of arhat boxing did I play? Oh, my God. Help me! Is this Xiao Xi's father? Probably not a gift for phone bills? Such torture!
Xiao Xi's face is like a frosted eggplant, as much as you want, you can have as much as you want......
"Can you ...... so many !!?"
"Of course not, the hard work now is to lay a more solid foundation for the future, when my father cultivated, he was even harder and more tired than you, otherwise do you think I can become a high-level fighter?
Xiao Ergou was stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself that it could be harder than this? You can just blow it! Something more delicacies from the mountains and seas, otherwise you won't have the strength to exercise!"
Of course, Xiao Tian could hear that Xiao Ergou was quibbling! Guaranteed to be served with good food and drink every day, let him eat openly!
But Xiao Tian thought about it carefully. It's really hard for the child, and it's more than twice as strong as he was at the beginning.
Just saying that was just lying to him. It's going to be hard for sure. can think of his son being scolded as a waste for many years, he still has an iron heart, and he must be strict, let him soar into the sky, and give a resounding slap to all those who looked down on his son at the beginning!
Who doesn't want their children to have a future? Who is not hoping that the son will become a dragon and the daughter will become a phoenix, alas, pity the hearts of parents all over the world!
Okay, now you start practicing, run first, and after that, like a trick, you have an extra sandbag in your hand. Thrown to Xiao Ergou!
Xiao Ergou took the sandbag. Almost none of the dogs fell to the ground. After all, he is still a ten-year-old child, and the fifty pounds of sandbags are already quite heavy when combined with the gravity of the throwing!
Xiao Ergou hurriedly put down the sandbag and asked, "Father can still do tricks?"
Xiao Tian smiled, patted his waist, pointed to a slightly quaint small pocket and said, "See, this thing is called a storage bag." Don't look at it small, but there is something else inside, there is a one-meter square space where items can be stored, and when needed, you can use the fighting spirit to pull and take out the items!
This is the lowest storage bag, but it took half a lifetime of hard work for my father to get it, and it has no price!
The space rings of those legendary god fighters can hold such a large space as our Chuyun County!But these are not what you need to know at the moment, hurry up and put on a sandbag and run!"
Xiao Ergou was fascinated when he heard it, how big it can fit Chuyun County?
Through Xiao Xi's memories, Xiao Ergou knew that the planet Gelt was divided into multiple empires. Just one of the Holy Cloud Realms where he is located is the size of Earth!
Chuyun County is the smallest county in the Shengyun Kingdom, and it is also the size of the Huaxia Kingdom where he used to live!
Can you fit it with a ring? My grandmother's uncle, that's amazing. Xiao Ergou thought about it, and glanced at the ring that he wore on his hand and crossed with him!
With a sandbag on his back, he ran hard! After running less than half a lap, Xiao Ergou was already sweating profusely, and he was out of breath!
Although Xiaojiazhuang is not big, it is also a big family in Chuyun County, and Zhuangzi is definitely not small, and it is tens of thousands of meters in a circle!
This is still only counting the main Zhuangzi, there are many fields around, other courtyards and the like, which are not counted, because most of those small households are subordinate families attached to the Xiao family, and it is impossible to live in the Xiao family village!
"Ouch, I'm going to die! I'm going to die!" Xiao Ergou said while panting!
No matter what Xiao Tian says. Xiao Ergou refused to get up, and lay on the ground and pretended to be a dead dog! No way, in the end, Xiao Tian had to take the sandbag and let Xiao Ergou continue to run!
In this way, Xiao Ergou reluctantly ran and stopped, grinding and grinding for almost three hours, running about two laps!
Xiao Tian hurriedly ran over and picked up Xiao Ergou, and against his back, he used his fighting spirit, woke up Xiao Ergou, and fed him a pill. Xiao Ergou's state has improved slightly!
Then Xiao Tian took out the roast chicken and braised goose sauce beef, as well as a pot of water! Xiao Ergou didn't say a word, buried his head in eating and drinking for a while, and fell on the grass after eating and drinking, saying nothing and not running away!
Xiao Tian thought for a moment. After all, his son has only started on the first day, and it is indeed a bit difficult for him to have such intensity, but when he thinks of feeding him an energy pill just now, it will be wasted if he doesn't exercise!
The energy pill has the effect of replenishing physical strength, restoring energy, stimulating the potential of the body, and breaking through the limits of the body!
"That's okay, let's stop running for the time being, I'll tell you about the tricks and methods of cultivating Dou Qi!" Xiao Tian said!
All right. When Xiao Ergou heard that there was no need to run, he sat up happily, and before he could laugh, Xiao Tian continued: "Then squat and walk." You squat and walk while I explain it to you!"
At this time, Xiao Ergou's bones were numb, and his muscles were slightly hot. He knew it was because his cheap dad had fed him the pill before. I know it's for his good. Therefore, he did not refuse, stood up and squatted up!
Xiao Ergou was originally an orphan who ate hundreds of meals. No one ever really cared about him and cared about him. Except for the old monk who had passed away and taught him Luohan Boxing! At this time, he felt that Xiao Tian really cared about him. He didn't say it, but he was actually very moved in his heart!
"If you want to start practicing qi, first of all, you must sit cross-legged firmly, bend your left hand slightly, put it in the palm of your right hand, concentrate your mind, and then use your heart to sense the free Dou Qi molecules of various attributes in the air, and when you sense it, you will complete the first step of cultivation, which is also a particularly important step. Then it is to run the exercises you have cultivated, absorb the Dou Qi molecules that match your own attributes, and then ......!"
From simple to complex, Xiao Tian's talk was more than two hours, and Xiao Ergou was already sitting on the lawn with no physical strength halfway through listening to Xiao Tian's experience! When the sun was setting after the lecture, it was time for dinner.
Xiao Tian took Xiao Ergou back to the hall of Xiaojiazhuang, and the dishes were already on the table. Xiao Wugeng sat on the main seat, next to Xiao Ergou's fifth uncle, and his two sons: Xiao Hu's two brothers and Xiao Xiao and Xiao Ergou's mother Chu Mo!
Obviously, everyone also knows that Xiao Ergou can now cultivate. The two brothers Xiao Hu glanced at Xiao Ergou indignantly, but did not speak!
Only Xiao Xiao whispered a few words to Xiao Ergou! Xiao Ergou's mother, Chu Mo, looked at Xiao Ergou gently!
"Okay, everyone is here, let's eat!" Xiao Wugeng picked up the chopsticks and ate after speaking. During the banquet, everyone chatted happily. mentioned some things about the boxing method that Xiao Ergou fought today, but Xiao Ergou didn't listen to it at all, thinking about what Xiao Tian said in the afternoon, and all kinds of situations about cultivation.
After dinner, after Xiao Tian told Xiao Ergou that he would still meet at the place where he was exercising today early tomorrow morning, Xiao Ergou said goodbye to everyone and dragged his tired body in the direction of his house......
