After the Shangyuan Festival, under the Qilian Mountain outside Zhangye County, the Qilian Mountain at this time was covered by heavy snow, and the heavy snow reflected the crystal light under the sunlight, and in a valley under the mountain, Chu Mofeng began to learn the basic moves of the world's martial arts under the teaching of Di Ting--- Zama Bu, and the valley in the early morning was still full of the cold of last night.

I saw Di Ting standing in front of Chu Mofeng and said: "The world's martial arts, many complicated, the road to martial arts, to diligence, there is no shortcut to learn any martial arts, only diligent practice can achieve great success, so the first lesson I taught you today is Zama step, now follow my mantra to start practicing." Then Di Ting began to recite the mantra: "Open your feet outward, shoulder-width apart, turn your toes forward, shift your center of gravity downward, open your feet wide, and gradually squat, with your hands flat and palms down." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Chu Mofeng, and couldn't help wiping the sweat on his forehead and said, "I'm asking you to squat, not to let you make a big move, come, stand up, and start again." Then he recited the mantra again, and this time Chu Mofeng finally did a decent job.

At this time, Chu Mofeng tied up the Siping horse, feeling that the limbs seemed to no longer belong to him, and before the five breaths had passed, he trembled like chaff, and sat on the ground, Di heard the form and took out a horse whip and said: "Reading your first practice, this time I will spare you for the time being, get up and continue to practice, and if you fall within ten breaths next time, be careful to eat the whip." Immediately shook a whip flower, only to hear a crisp sound of 'pop' in the air, Chu Mofeng listened to the excitement, and hurriedly stood up and continued to walk.

At this time, Di Ting's voice floated in the air: "The purpose of the pile gong is to relax the whole body, loose and unremitting, to be aggressive like fire, not moving like a mountain, when you feel the body shaking, you have to learn to meditate, try to relax the body, the body is relaxed, people will not tremble, don't want to eat, drink and be comfortable, think about your father, mother and two brothers." ”

With Di Ting's teaching, this time Chu Mofeng actually insisted on fifteen breaths before falling to the ground, and Di heard the form and shouted: "Get up, don't sit on the ground like a girl." Hearing this, Chu Mofeng quickly stood up.

Di Ting looked at Chu Mofeng and said, "Go on, you can't be lazy." Since you can insist on fifteen breaths, this time you can only be qualified to insist on twenty breaths, otherwise you will be whipped. Then Chu Mofeng hurriedly began to tie up the Siping horse again.

With the passage of time, a morning has passed, Chu Mofeng has insisted on a quarter of an hour from the previous five breaths, Di Ting looked at Chu Mofeng and nodded with satisfaction and said: "It's good to practice like this for the first time, but you can't be complacent, I'll teach you another pile method in the afternoon, let's go, now go and shoot a rabbit with me, we will roast a rabbit outside at noon today." ”

The two of them caught two rabbits in a row, found a water source to clean up, and then put them on the shelves that had been prepared with branches and began to roast them, and after a while, the fragrance of rabbit meat wafted away, and Di listened to Chu Mofeng, who looked greedy, and smiled: "Silly boy, if you want to eat roast rabbits, practice martial arts and catch them yourself." ”

Then he handed Chu Mofeng a branch with a rabbit stuck in it, "Eat, rest and rest after eating, and then continue to practice." After speaking, he ignored Chu Mofeng and ate by himself.

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng also hurriedly gobbled it up, and after eating the rabbit, Chu Mofeng touched his round belly, burped a long time, and then found a clean place to sit down, looked at Di Ting and said, "Master Di Ting, when will you teach me to use the burning sky?"

Di heard this and smiled: "It's still early for you to touch the weapon, what I teach you now is the basic skills of using weapons and fist palms, waiting for you The fish intestine master will teach you the basic skills of using hidden weapons, and after you have mastered the two basic skills, we will gradually teach you to use the corresponding weapons, and when you can learn the moves of the weapons, I will teach you how to use these moves to burn the angels." So boy, the road to martial arts is a long and boring road, since you decide to practice martial arts, don't go to it overnight, but gradually become the avenue. ”

As soon as noon passed, Di Ting woke up Chu Mofeng who was sleeping with a whip flower, and saw Di Ting say to Chu Mofeng: "I will now teach you another way to stand on the pile, this pile method is taught to me by a Taoist priest I met at the foot of Wudang Mountain when I traveled the world, this pile is called the mixed yuan pile, and now I teach it to you, I hope you can also practice diligently." ”

Then he said: "You have listened to the mantra of the pile, go down to the valley road, go up to the jade building, the tongue touches the palate, the inner breath is stable, the shoulders are heavy, the elbows are falling, the shoulders are spread and the shoulders are reversed, the legs are like pillars, the curve is straight, and the straight is curved." The knees are bent and the muscles are straight. Waist and hip valgus. ”

Chu Mofeng asked puzzledly: "Where are the master Gu Dao and the Jade Tower?" Di Ting then explained: "The Gu Dao is the place where you go out of Dagong, and the Jade Tower refers to the Jade Pillow Point, and the location of the Jade Pillow Point is at the high bulging bones behind your ears. ”

Chu Mofeng still asked puzzledly: "Master, how to tie this pile, you teach me." ”

Di heard the words and said: "Follow me to move the body:" The two feet are brought together first, the body is naturally upright, and then the left foot is half a step to the left, the distance between the two feet is slightly wider than the shoulder, the toes are forward, the soles of the feet are firmly on the ground, the shoulders are on the same line as the springs, the hands are naturally drooping, the eyes are looking forward, the hands are slowly raised to the chest, the hands are pulled out and the circle is hugged, and the hips are wrapped and the knees are bent. ”

Then Chu Mofeng followed the guidance of Di Ting, tied up the mixed yuan pile, because a rabbit went down at noon, he practiced in the afternoon and was particularly energetic, plus he had a little foundation in the morning to practice Zama step, and he gradually sank into the dream with Chu Mofeng, and suddenly there was a whip in his ears, and Di Ting's stern voice sounded again.

"I'm asking you to tie up the mixed yuan pile, not to let you fall asleep standing up. Immediately, a whip was thrown at Chu Mofeng's left leg, only to hear the sound of 'pop', Chu Mofeng felt a hot sensation on the outside of his left thigh, and then the pain spread all over his body, Chu Mofeng couldn't help but lie on the ground with his thigh in his arms and howled, at this time, Di Ting threw another whip flower in Chu Mofeng's ear.

I only heard Di Ting's loud shouting: "It's only the first day, I threw you a whip and you lay on the ground screaming, if the enemy gives you a knife in the future, will you also lie on the ground and wail? At that time, the enemy will not give you a chance to wail, only death awaits you, think about your family, what will they do if you die?" If you are a man, stand up for me and continue, I chose it for you at the beginning, you want to learn both civil, military and business, since you have chosen well, it is inevitable to endure hardships and suffering, if you can't even endure hardships, then I will send you back to your hometown in Bohai County, and live a life in a mess from now on!"

At this time, Chu Mofeng listened to Di Ting's words, as if he was in the head, he rubbed his thighs that were still painful, stood up hard, and walked behind Di Ting's voice to Di Ting: "Master, I was wrong, what you taught me is that if I can't even bear these hardships, then how can I talk about rehabilitating my father and the Gao family, you can rest assured that I won't be like this in the future." ”

After speaking, he turned around and walked to the original place, and while reciting the mantra, he set up a mixed yuan pile by himself. Di heard this and thought to himself: Little boy, I don't have to do this to you, because your father pinned the hopes of the Gao family on you.

At the beginning of the unitary year, the day's practice was over, and Chu Mofeng's mixed yuan pile was gradually able to last for two quarters of an hour, and the two returned to the Yanyu Courtyard, and as soon as they entered the door, they met Qingli, Qingli saw a deep whip mark on Chu Mofeng's left thigh, and glanced at Di Ting with a little deep meaning, and Di Ting looked at Qing Li and shrugged helplessly.

Back in the east wing, Chu Mofeng took off his pants, only to see that the whip marks on his legs were already swollen, and at this time, Qingli pushed the door in with a small porcelain bottle, "Wipe the medicine in this porcelain bottle on your legs, once in the morning and once in the evening, and it will be cured in two days." After that, he put the porcelain vase on the table and turned around and walked out of the room, Chu Mofeng picked up the porcelain vase and smelled it, a fragrance came to his nose, and then poured out some and wiped it on his legs, slowly put on his pants, and walked out of the door.

As soon as he went out and saw the fish intestine standing outside the door, he glanced at the whip marks on Chu Mofeng's legs, smiled and said: "Let's go, let's go to the dining room to eat, rest early after eating, I will take you to train tomorrow morning, we don't have to go out, just practice in the second courtyard." ”

Chu Mofeng followed Yu Gu and walked towards the dining room, "Uncle Yu Gu, am I too stupid." Can't you practice anything?"

Hearing this, Yu Gu smiled and said, "It's not that you're stupid, it's because you don't work hard." ”

Chu Mofeng said suspiciously: "But every time I try to do it, but I always can't do it well." ”

Yu Gu turned his head and looked at Chu Mofeng's eyes and said, "Since you have worked hard and there is no result, you might as well work harder." ”

Hearing this, Chu Mofeng swept away the decadence that he had just come back, and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Uncle Yugu, I know, thank you." ”

After having dinner in the dining room, Chu Mofeng went back to his room early and went to bed.

At the beginning of the second day, Chu Mofeng vaguely heard someone calling him outside the house in his sleep, so he got up and got out of bed to open the door, only to see the fish intestines change his cynical appearance in the past, standing outside the door in a strong suit, and said to Chu Mofeng: "Get up, what time is it and go to bed again, today I will take you to practice, there is a dress prepared for you in the house, come out quickly after you are dressed." ”

When Chu Mofeng heard this, he quickly turned around and changed the clothes on the table and ran out, and said to the fish intestines: "Master fish intestines, what are you practicing today?"

Yu Gu smiled weirdly and said, "I'll take you to practice endurance today, let's go, go out for a run with me, and I'll practice something else when I come back after running." ”

After saying that, he led Chu Mofeng out of the door, and the two trotted all the way to the east gate of Zhangye County, and a harrier turned over and ran up the city wall.

Condescendingly said to Chu Mofeng: "Now start running five laps around the city wall of Zhangye County, don't think about opportunistic tricks to come in from other city gates, I can see the situation of the four gates where I stand here, it is a quarter of the hour, and I will finish running before five minutes, otherwise I will not have breakfast this morning." ”

Chu Mofeng heard the words and hurriedly started to run, at this time, the circumference of Zhangye County was about eight miles and one hundred and ten steps (one step is equal to five feet), about less than four thousand two hundred meters, at first Chu Mofeng ran the first lap quickly, and smiled at him when he passed by the fish intestines.

I only heard the fish intestine shouting: "Let you practice endurance is not speed, you run like this, I see how you can persist in the last two laps?" After speaking, he sat down cross-legged, took out a hu cake from his pocket and chewed it in a big bite.

In the second lap, Chu Mofeng slowed down a little and finished running, and when he passed by the fish intestine at this time, the fish intestine shouted loudly: "Three quarters of the hour, there are still two quarters of an hour." ”

Chu Mofeng heard the words and accelerated to run forward, on the fourth lap, Chu Mofeng felt that his legs seemed to be tied with a lot of iron, and it was a little difficult to even move forward, he wanted to sit on the ground to rest and rest, and remembered what the fish intestine said to him yesterday, so he hurriedly gritted his teeth and continued to run forward.

When he ran to the last lap, Chu Mofeng basically relied on one step at a time to move forward, and finally reached the finish line, a sense of fatigue came instantly, and he was about to fall to the ground as soon as his eyes were black, at this time, the fish intestine jumped down from the city wall, supported him, and then picked him up and walked towards the Yanyu Courtyard.

After arriving at the Yanyu Courtyard, Yu Gu put Chu Mofeng in a guest room across the courtyard, and then went out to the dining hall, and when he came back with the meal, Chu Mofeng had already woken up, Yu Gu put breakfast on the table, said a word to come to the second courtyard after eating, and turned around and went out.

Chu Mofeng endured the soreness of his legs and back, quickly finished the meal, and then walked towards the second cross courtyard, and when he arrived at the second cross courtyard, he found that the fish intestines were standing in front of a water tank, which was full of water and there was a wooden bucket on the ground next to it, and there was also a water tank not far away.

I only heard the fish intestine say to him: "This item is to practice speed and arm strength, you pick the sleeping bucket in the water tank in front of me and put it in the empty tank opposite, put it full once, you practice once I take a look, don't try to be fast for the first time, find your own tricks in the practice." ”

After saying that, the fish intestines sat on the stool at the door of the west wing and began to meditate, Chu Mofeng picked up the bucket on the ground and began to scoop a bucket of water and ran towards the opposite water tank, after pouring the water into it, he hurriedly ran back with the empty bucket, so it took about three quarters of an hour to fill the empty tank back and forth, at this time Chu Mofeng felt that his hands and legs could not use any strength at all, so he immediately sat on the ground and began to knead it.

Hearing the sound, the fish intestine opened his eyes and looked at Chu Mofeng and said, "Take a rest again, get up quickly, and put the water from the opposite water tank back into the previous water tank." I'll only give you two quarters of an hour this time. After saying that, he closed his eyes and began to meditate.

Chu Mofeng hurriedly rubbed his sore calves and thighs, got up and picked up the empty bucket and began to scoop water, after going back and forth many times, he barely finished scooping up the water within two quarters of an hour, at this time he couldn't hold on anymore, so he sat on the ground and began to knead his whole body non-stop.

At this time, Yu Gu opened his eyes again and said: "Don't stop, the ancients are cloudy, husband fights, courage also, one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion, practice is also like fighting, the more times you rest, the more you don't want to get up and practice, so don't sit on the ground now, continue to put the water in the empty tank opposite, two quarters of an hour." After saying that, he closed his eyes again and began to meditate.

Chu Mofeng stood up helplessly when he heard this, picked up the bucket and began to scoop water, and when he was halfway through the practice, he really couldn't stand it and wanted to squat down and rest for a while, but he didn't open his eyes, and he took out a small pebble and threw it over, hitting Chu Mofeng's back at once, and he snorted in pain.

I only heard the fish intestine say slowly: "Don't be delusional and lazy, be fast." Chu Mofeng had no choice but to continue scooping water, two quarters of an hour passed quickly, at this time Chu Mofeng was already tired and unwilling to move, the fish intestine ended meditating, stood up and said: "At this time, it is the end of the afternoon and the beginning of the afternoon, let's go to lunch, continue to practice after noon, the time is over, fill a tank back and forth once, a total of three times." ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked to the dining room, Chu Mofeng heard the words and lay on the ground, unwilling to get up for a long time, after a hasty lunch, Chu Mofeng returned to the east wing and lay on the bed unwilling to move, until he heard the fish intestines shouting to him, he hurriedly ran out of the house and continued to scoop water.

As soon as Shen Shi arrived, Chu Mofeng completed all the exercises for today, walked to the canteen step by step, and went back to the house to rest after eating hastily.

In this way, the training of standing and running for a day, the time came to the second day of the second month of February in a blink of an eye, and with the practice day by day, Chu Mofeng found that his body was getting stronger day by day, and his walking speed was faster, and there was not so much soreness in his body after each practice.
