For the next few days, Lin Xu didn't go out, staying at home to concentrate on martial arts. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Get up at three o'clock in the morning every day and practice internal skills on time. After practicing for four hours, after two hours in ancient times, I finished at seven o'clock, and then got up and dressed and went to the small temple next to me to practice the red sand hand and spin the Qiankun palm.
After transcribing and translating all the Shaolin 12 Ways of Springing Legs, he practiced this set of springing legs on the roof of the bungalow every morning and afternoon after breakfast.
Although the small temple next to it is more spacious, and there are not many people in front of the Thousand Hands Guanyin Hall behind, after all, it has been deserted for many years, the ground is overgrown with weeds, the bluestone paving the ground is broken, and many places are not smooth enough. He practiced red sand hands in order to choose the forest, where there happened to be a big green pine, which was more suitable. And the red sand hand and the rotating Qiankun palm are not too violent and complicated, just a small place. The external fist and foot kung fu of bounce legs can be practiced, but it is an interaction of fists and feet, and the footwork is changeable, so it needs a very spacious flat place, or it is more suitable on the roof of his bungalow.
In addition to practicing leg springing, Lin Xu also occasionally practiced his light body kung fu. By the time he reached the Chinese New Year's Eve, Lin Xu's light body had made some progress, and he was already able to jump lightly from the ground on the other side of the temple to the roof, and the fence on the side of the bungalow was no longer an obstacle, and he could jump up, and he didn't need to step on the brick edge under the bottom when he reached the top quickly.
With such growth, first, he has cultivated his internal strength in the past few days, and his internal strength has improved a lot. Although there is still no obvious doubling in explosiveness, it has also improved somewhat. The second is that he has found a better way to lift qi and light his body, no longer only mentioning the qi to the upper body in general, but to the jade pillow acupoint at the back of his head.
This is the time he suddenly remembered the section in the "Tianlong Babu" that he had read, Tianshan Tong's grandmother had taught Xuzhu light gong, "When you jump, your knees are slightly bent, and you can lift your qi dantian, and when you feel that your true qi rises, you must relax your muscles and bones, and think about the ...... between the jade pillow points."
He didn't care if the fiction in the novel was true or not, so he just gave it a try. After carefully trying it a few times, I didn't expect it to be a success. After jumping off the ground, he lifted his internal qi to the jade pillow acupoint, which really made him feel a lot lighter, and he had a sense of immortality.
This made him feel that although most of the martial arts novels are fictional, some of the martial arts principles in them are also true. Martial arts novelists not only write about martial arts, but it is impossible that they have no contact with martial arts, and they have some understanding after all. Or read some related books by yourself, or visit real martial arts masters, or hear from others. Either way, there's always something about it.
However, although his light skills have improved, it is not very much, so he jumped half a meter higher, jumping from his yard to the bungalow, and it is still difficult to jump three meters at a time.
He practiced leg bounce kung fu for two days, but there was no obvious progress. Although he currently spends the most time on this kung fu, he can only be said to have just started, and he has roughly practiced all the movements of the twelve paths. He didn't even dare to say whether the movements were standard, after all, he didn't have anyone who really knew how to guide him, so he just relied on his own reading books and practicing blindly.
But he can't help it, but he doesn't care very much about it, some mistakes are some mistakes, anyway, there are many genres of this elastic leg, so it's his own unique genre.
In fact, it is really taught by the master, and the same set of martial arts learned by each apprentice is also a little different. There are no two people in the world who are absolutely the same, and each person has some habits and understandings of each other. After practicing in this way, they will naturally form their own characteristics.
This is also the so-called "Master leads the door, and cultivation depends on the individual", the master teaches by word and deed, but how much an individual can comprehend also depends on his own ability. Moreover, even if it is taught by the master, it is not advisable to move the routine, and it will not be flexible with a punch and a kick. Practicing martial arts, like learning knowledge, is also about learning and applying, turning what you have learned into your own, being able to draw inferences from one another, and really learning the truth in it, not just rote memorization of formulas and hard routines.
When you actually fight with someone, no one will really let you follow the routine with punches, kicks, moves, and moves. If you really only follow the routine, it will definitely be a loss. And the kind of master who only allows his apprentices to practice according to the standard rigid routines and can't make any mistakes is obviously not a famous teacher.
Lin Xu has studied well since he was a child, and he is a person who is very good at learning and is good at mastering learning methods. So he never has a brainstorm in anything, and the same is true for martial arts. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to go out of my way and be very bold to create my own internal strength. Although most of his self-creation relied on some theoretical knowledge and ancient remarks in the two "Qigong" magazines, and was not entirely based on himself, he dared not to die according to the book to create a unique style, and his character can also be seen from it.
What's more, he is confident that the twelve-way elastic leg he practiced, although he didn't dare to guarantee that it would be exactly the same as that of Shaolin Temple, he also thought that there would not be many mistakes, and the power of the enemy was still there. If there is a really big mistake, it is not too late to correct it again in the future. This kind of external fist and foot kung fu is different from internal strength, and it has little impact if it is wrong, and it can be changed back.
It's just that he hasn't seen the authentic one now, and there is no one who really knows how to guide him, so he has to practice according to his own path first. After all, this should still be practiced, and the practice of this fist and foot kung fu is not an overnight thing, and if you want to really practice it and turn it into your own body memory, it will take a long time of hard practice.
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve Chinese New Year's Eve night, after dinner, Lin Xu's family sat around and wrapped dumplings while watching the Spring Festival Gala on TV. Although they live in the same courtyard, their family and grandparents' families are still relatively independent, and they cook separately. The dumplings on this Chinese New Year's Eve are also packed separately, and only the New Year's dinner at noon on the first day of the new year is eaten together.
Usually, it is only on special occasions or entertaining relatives and the like that they get together, and in other cases, they eat their own food. My grandparents are not very old and like to be self-sufficient and do it themselves.
Although the New Year's custom is "thirty nights, keep one night", they do not have the saying of keeping the New Year, and they really stay awake all night until the first day of the next Lunar New Year. Anyway, since Lin Xu was a child, the New Year has not been like this, and they don't eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner here. Now this bag of dumplings is also eaten on the morning of the first day of the new year after waking up early the next day, but it is just wrapped in advance.
On the night of the thirtieth, except for a few cannons, there were no special activities for all families to gather together to watch the Spring Festival Gala on TV. After watching the party, they went to sleep. Some people who can't hold it anymore or are too sleepy, don't wait for the party to finish, and go to bed early. Then get up early the next day to offer the lord, that is, set up an incense case in the courtyard to worship heaven and earth.
Maybe they also had a year guard here in ancient times, but as the times progressed, the customs naturally changed. In the past, there was no Spring Festival Gala, but now the whole family watches the Spring Festival Gala together during the New Year, which is obviously one of the New Year's customs.
