Chapter 272: Tai Chi, Xingyi and the Eight Poles
Old Chen seemed to be awake but not awake, as if he was asleep, Tang Chen looked at him very strangely.
"Then the aura we are talking about, can it also be called the 'Qi' field?"
Chen Lao said slowly: "In the concept of Feng Shui, 'Qi' is a stream of consciousness and a state of 'field'. Not only Feng Shui, but even Chinese medicine, qigong, breathing, guiding, meditation, etc., must pay attention to 'qi'. After all, traditional Chinese culture is much the same, and they all believe that 'Qi' is innate qi, and 'qi' is acquired qi. ”
"In other words, the innate magic weapon is the 'Qi field', and the acquired magic weapon is the 'aura'?"
Tang Chen seemed to understand a little.
That's a nopographical yes. Chen Lao slowly opened his eyes.
No matter who it is, it is estimated that it is impossible to think about answering questions while cultivating. Even if it was Chen Lao, it was impossible, in the face of Tang Chen's question, he could only cheer up and answer.
"Xiao Tang, if you practice Tai Chi with me, you are actually concretizing the cultivation of 'Qi', so this boxing method is also called Neijia Boxing. ”
Chen Lao said proudly.
What man doesn't have a martial arts dream in his heart? After Tang Chen heard this, he didn't need Chen Lao's encouragement, he was already enthusiastic: "This is martial arts? Can I fly the eaves and walk the wall after I have practiced? Can I beat ten strong men by myself? Can I shoot it with one palm, and I can fly sand and stones, and open steles and crack stones?"
Chen Lao shook his head and said with certainty: "No!"
Tang Chen suddenly hung his head: "What's the use of practicing him?"
"Have you ever heard that 'Tai Chi doesn't go out for ten years, Xingyi kills people in one year, and the eight poles don't fight since ancient times'?"
Tang Chen nodded, he often went to a certain point, and he still knew a little bit about this.
"Tell me why?"
Facing Old Chen's question, Tang Chen said uncertainly: "Because Xingyi Quan and Baji Quan are both extremely strong kung fu, and Tai Chi pays attention to overcoming rigidity with softness?"
"That's true, but it's not entirely true. Chen Lao sighed and said, "The so-called 'Xingyi kills people in a year' is actually a mistake. Many boxers who practice Xingyi boxing, as soon as they get older, their legs and feet are not good, and even their lives are short. There are also young men who have practiced Xingyi Quan for several months, and their bodies have suffered a lot of losses, neurasthenia, kidney deficiency, and various problems have come out, and their bodies are getting worse day by day.
I like the fierceness on the surface of Xingyi Boxing, but as a result, I have practiced "hurting others and hurting myself", and I am still hard to calluse, but I still inevitably like an ordinary butcher, I cut the cow, the knife is also broken, and sooner or later I hurt myself. Xingyiquan is widely circulated, there are a variety of works published publicly, but the public is only the moves, according to the old martial arts rules, Xingyiquan mantra and many other things can not be disclosed, can only be taught orally. Coupled with people's psychology of winning in martial arts, many people are learning martial arts techniques when they learn Xingyi Boxing, and they do not seek to understand the deeper truth. Xingyi boxing's practice, play, and mantra are all different, and the practice of playing and using the method to compete, is the disadvantage of Xingyi boxing.
The style of play is the usage, in which the trick is easy to explain clearly, and it can be used in actual combat immediately, but it is only a skill, not kung fu, and kung fu cannot be achieved quickly, but can only be practiced slowly. I don't understand the difference between practice and fighting, and I desperately learn how to kill people, and my body will naturally have problems. Xingyi boxing practice and fighting style are very different. For example, the practice should be 'pushing the shoulders with the body, the elbows with the shoulders, and the hands with the elbows' until the practice reaches the point where the flow is endless, and the method of playing is to first throw the hands out like whips, and then chase the hands with the elbows, the elbows with the shoulders, and the shoulders with the body. Xingyi boxing ancient spectrum has the words "to fight the law to go up first", said before the competition, first to practice the skills of the body to clap hands, the strength of the whole body changed, otherwise the competition time has kung fu, no speed and crisp, will be defeated, but there is no kung fu on the body, just practice the way of playing, will shock the joints and the back of the head, so the beginning of the practice of boxing is to play the law do not go first.
I was dizzy and dizzy from practicing Xingyi Boxing, and my memory was lost, but I was too hard under my feet. In fact, Xingyi boxing is also an internal boxing, practice is the spirit of the spirit, many boxers are practicing to beat people, the spirit of the spirit is raised, a shot of strength is sent out, can not be short-lived?
'Xingyi kills people in a year', not that the moves are powerful, but that Xingyi can make people change from weak to strong in a short period of time, with infinite energy and physical strength. But with such a fierce practice, you often beat yourself to death before you kill someone with one punch, because it is easy to be strong, but you must be careful of 'prosperity and decline'. After being strong, I don't know how to recuperate, and the spirit will be consumed like a river, and practicing martial arts is to strengthen the body, but often people who practice martial arts will have a short life, and they will age badly after the prime of life.
After practicing kung fu, I didn't know that there was still such a major event as 'prosperity and decline', and just competing for fame was destroying myself. Martial arts is very systematic, even if you are talented and intelligent, you still have to practice it little by little. Otherwise, it is not good to only know that there is one, but not to know two, and only raise your feet without taking a step. ”
Tang Chen's eyes widened when he heard this: "There is still this kind of saying, what about 'the eight poles have not been beaten since ancient times'?"
"That's better understood. Chen Lao said with a smile, "The Baji Boxing method has always been known in the martial arts world for its tricky and ruthless, unique and extremely practical striking methods and techniques, and the degree of striking power and damage is too cruel. Bajiquan was created and existed to be used in a real life-and-death duel. And the competition in the ring is just to compete for victory and defeat and evaluate the relative skill level. Therefore, in order to reduce unnecessary casualties, there is a saying that 'since ancient times, the eight poles have not been beaten'. ”
Tang Chen said excitedly: "Then I'd rather learn Bajiquan!"
Chen Lao was stunned: "Why?"
"You can beat ten with one!" Tang Chen imitated Bruce Lee's movements and said, "How powerful!"
Chen Lao pulled down his face: "If you practice the Eight Extremes, don't say that your body will be wasted, even Feng Shui will be wasted!"
Tang Chen was taken aback: "Won't it, it's so serious?"
Chen Lao snorted coldly and said: "Do you think I'm tricking you? Slow to say, I don't know Bajiquan, even if I can, I won't teach you! With this kind of temperament, you don't fight bravely and fiercely when you go outside? If you miss and kill someone, you will have to go to jail!"
Tang Chen touched his nose and said, "I'm so honest, I definitely won't be like this......"
"If you don't come, it's the honest people who will kill people!" Chen Lao said disdainfully, "Honest people learn kung fu, and they often become more courageous, and they don't care about the importance of their shots." I have been in Xiangjiang for so many years, and I have not seen such people. If it weren't for the martial arts masters in Xiangjiang who were very restrained by their disciples, I'm afraid that a big conflict would have broken out long ago. ”
