Chapter 1 The Lin Family
Heaven and earth are furnaces, creation is work, yin and yang are charcoal, and all things are copper.
Convergence and dispersion of news, there are regular rules, ever-changing, and there is no beginning of the extreme.
The land of Bashu has a dangerous terrain and many deep mountains and dense forests. The resources are abundant, the strange flowers and plants are everywhere, the people are outstanding, the place is quiet, and naturally the talented people live in seclusion here.
Lin Fenghua, the father of Lin Aotian, the head of the Lin family, is known as the Taijilin madman, forty years ago, he amazed the entire martial arts with one hand of Taijiquan, no one knows who he was taught by, and he became famous overnight, and the sound shook the martial arts.
Legend has it that he fought several Taijiquan masters in Wudang Mountain with his own strength without any defeat, when he went down the mountain, he looked up to the sky and sighed, and said that Wudang since Zhang Zhenren, no one has mastered the true meaning of Taiji, and he is really disappointed. Even if the Wudang Sect is a master, no one has surpassed this person in boxing. Afterwards, he turned around and left, looking for a secluded place, and no one on the rivers and lakes has ever heard of Lin Fenghua's deeds again.
Today is the dog days of June, and the sun is in full bloom. There is a courtyard in Shu where people come and go, bustling, looking at some domestic slaves, maids and the like, busy back and forth.
Each of them had joy written on his face, for today was the day of the birth of the wife of the head of the family. Lin Fenghua paced back and forth outside the delivery room, his trembling fingers highlighted all the tension in his heart, and at this time, outsiders would not think that this anxious old man was the peerless master who challenged the entire Wudang with the power of one person back then.
Lin Fenghua was very tormented at this time, he only had Lin Aotian a son under his knees, and he was named Aotian in the hope that his children could inherit his boxing skills, and Lin Aotian was not a person who liked to practice martial arts. However, Lin Aotian is particularly interested in Zhou Yi's metaphysics, and he also has talent. Lin Fenghua is very old, and he can only pin his hopes on this child, hoping that he is a martial arts wizard so that he can inherit his Taijiquan.
As early as when Lin Aotian's wife just knew about Youxi, after telling Lin Fenghua, Lin Fenghua was very happy, in the past ten months, almost all of his free time was spent in the forest to collect medicines, and then practice some herbs into pills, planning to lay a good foundation for his grandson's martial arts road in the future.
While Lin Fenghua and Lin Aotian were anxiously waiting outside, suddenly, a pale red floated from the sky in the distance, and the speed was extremely fast, and it came in an instant. When this pale red floated into the sky above the Lin family's mansion, the color was already as dark as a raging fire, lingering for a while, and then disappearing in a flash.
When Lin Fenghua came over this red cloud, he felt a sense of oppression, just like the oppression of a person in a high position on the aura of civilians. Lin Fenghua is also the top master in the martial arts, what can make him feel this way, in his impression, there is no such master in this world.
Just as Lin Fenghua was thinking about Hongyun, a cry of "wow" came from the delivery room, and the two turned their eyes from the sky to the door, only to see the midwife walking out of the room with a smile, "Congratulations, master, it's a boy." When Lin Fenghua heard this, he didn't think about the vision just now, he looked up to the sky and sighed, "The sky is endless, my Lin family." β
Lin Aotian hurriedly walked into the room, looked at his tired wife lying on the bed, his eyes were full of doting, and said, "Yue'er, it's a boy, what do you call it?"
The woman slowly closed her eyes, "You have studied the five elements more deeply, go and discuss it with your father, and I'll take a break." β
Lin Aotian answered, tucked the corner of the quilt for her, and turned around and went out.
Lin Fenghua was teasing the infant child outside the house, Lin Aotian walked to his side, looked at the child, and said, "Father, the red cloud just now ......"
Lin Fenghua said: "It's a little strange, can you figure it out?"
Lin Aotian thought for a while and said, "I'll go back and try it." Is the child's name decided?"
"I always feel that there is something wrong with the red cloud just now, you go back and use the gossip to calculate it, otherwise I am a little worried. Lin Fenghua frowned and looked at his grandson who was crying, "How could it be so coincidental." β
Lin Aotian nodded and said, "Well, I'll go first." After that, he turned around and instructed his subordinates to hold a feast and celebrate the child's birthday.
......
Lin Fenghua traveled alone in the early years of Kyushu, traveled all over the country, and accidentally got an ancient scroll at a monument, this scroll is made of unknown materials, the text on it is very ancient, and the scroll does not look dilapidated after a long time, and the handwriting is still as new, which is the turning point of his fate.
When he was young, he was obsessed with martial arts, and he found a few masters, but most of them were mediocre in martial arts.
The scroll he obtained is divided into two volumes, the first volume focuses on the Taijiquan method and the cultivation method of internal strength, and the second volume focuses on the distribution and arrangement of the sixty-four hexagrams of Zhou Yi, and the techniques of various Qimen Dunjia Five Elements Eight Trigrams.
Lin Fenghua is also a martial arts wizard, in retreat alone for ten years, according to the explanation on the scroll in addition to his own views, open up the meridians of the whole body, the internal force has increased greatly, after practicing Taijiquan, at that time the rivers and lakes all thought that Wudang Zhang Zhenren founded Taijiquan, Wudang is famous for Taijiquan Taijijian, but Lin Fenghua's Taijiquan method on the scroll is obviously earlier than Zhang Zhenren's era, he went to Wudang Mountain alone, wondering if his Taijiquan and Wudang's boxing are the same teacher.
At that time, Lin Fenghua was young and vigorous, and he had not been in contact with the world for ten years, and his temper became a little irritable and arrogant.
As soon as he entered the mountain gate, no one cared about him all the way, until he came to a courtyard, where some Wudang disciples were doing what they were doing, and a disciple named Cui Wenzi stepped forward angrily to stop him, and said, "Is the Wudang Holy Land a place where idle people are indiscriminate?"
Lin Fenghua looked at him and said, "I came to find the head of your faction, I have something to ask, and I will inform you." β
Cui Wenzi is mediocre in martial arts, but he likes to study drugs all his life and works as a deacon in Wudang Pharmacy. Unfortunately, the medicine he painstakingly refined failed that day, and more than ten days of hard work turned into a pile of waste dregs, Cui Wenzi was naturally very angry, he was thinking about it to come out and relax, when he looked up, he saw a person recklessly came to the courtyard of the medicine hall, this person was very angry, he had never seen it, so he wanted to find his bad luck, and stepped forward to interrogate. Who knew that this person was going to find the real person in charge of the house directly, and the head of the house couldn't see him on weekdays, so he was angry and replied: "Our head of the house works every day, how can we have time to see you, an unknown junior, and go back and forth from where it is early." As he spoke, he walked up and stretched out his hand to push Lin Fenghua.
Lin Fenghua saw the Wudang disciples move, in his opinion, there are many Wudang disciples here, and this person must have a unique skill when he stepped forward to speak. He didn't dare to be careless, secretly lucky, Lin Fenghua didn't know that Cui Wenzi had no internal force, and the internal force swallowed and spit out, in the eyes of outsiders, Lin Fenghua just shook slightly, and Cui Wenzi, who went up to push people, flew upside down and fell to the ground, a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, which was also when Lin Fenghua's internal force went out, he found that this person was really weak, and his subordinates showed a lot of mercy.
Seeing that his disciples were injured, the people around him surrounded him, and Lin Fenghua didn't want to explain much, since he had already done it, he shook his sleeves, took a step directly, and no longer asked for directions, and walked directly to the top of the mountain.
Seeing this, the Wudang disciples broke into Wudang Mountain alone, injured their own people, and stepped forward to stop them. It's just that the ordinary disciples under the sect can't make a move under his hands at all, and the obstruction of these disciples and disciples has no effect, Lin Fenghua's footsteps didn't stop, and he hit the mountain gate directly.
When I was halfway up the mountain, I only heard an angry roar, "Why do you come to Xiaoxiao and deceive me Wudang no one?" Lin Fenghua only heard the sound of the wind on the right side, and knew that a master was attacking with a palm, the palm force was too large and the wind was whirring, putting away his contempt, his feet slipped, and his body passed by the palm of the attacker from a strange angle, Lin Fenghua's shoulder was slightly forced, hitting the arm of the comer, turning around and standing still, and the person who came out of the palm did not expect Lin Fenghua's skills to be so exquisite, he took the initiative to sneak attack and suffered a small loss, staggered forward a few steps under his feet, turned around and glared at Lin Fenghua, " Seeing that you are not incompetent, I am Jiang Wanshan, a disciple of Wudang, why did you come to my Wudang to hurt my disciple for no reason? β
Lin Fenghua thought to himself, if I were just a mediocre person, I would have been slapped a long time ago, why bother talking so much nonsense, let's see the truth under my hands. Thinking of this, Lin Fenghua didn't answer, and directly put on the Tai Chi starting pose.
Seeing this, Jiang Wanshan was furious, the people in the rivers and lakes all paid attention to a face, the person on the other side didn't answer a word to his question, and he even had to use Tai Chi to make trouble in Wudang, in his eyes, this person was extremely contemptuous of Wudang, and he came here to make trouble, and he didn't talk to him, so he came out with both palms and went straight to Lin Fenghua's door.
Lin Fenghua did not panic, his steps retreated, and he rushed forward at a faster speed, this retreat and advance directly disrupted Jiang Wanshan's rhythm, and the two fought more than a dozen moves, Jiang Wanshan became more and more frightened, and secretly said that this person's Tai Chi body and boxing skills are among the top generations, and his palm skills are completely disorganized, and he is completely caught in the rhythm of this person, and it is a matter of time before he loses.
Suddenly, Lin Fenghua grabbed the moment he was distracted, Jiang Wanshan's left palm just slapped out, Lin Fenghua did not dodge, and took this palm straight with his right shoulder, when the shoulder and the palm were about to touch, Lin Fenghua's right shoulder was forced, and he retreated and advanced slightly, Jiang Wanshan thought that he had succeeded, and he didn't have time to be happy, he only felt that his left palm was like hitting the cotton, and he felt uncomfortable that his strength had no place to release, at this time his door was wide open, Lin Fenghua's body turned slightly, and his left elbow had already struck out, and then he suddenly heard a long howl," The chivalrous men are merciful. β
Lin Fenghua's left elbow was right on Jiang Wanshan's chest, but he didn't exert his strength, and on the side of his body, his left elbow turned into a palm and pushed Jiang Wanshan out. Looking back at the person who spoke, the person who spoke was an old man with fairy wind bones, wearing a soap-colored Taoist robe on his body, and Lin Fenghua was dressed in white.
Jiang Wanshan's face turned red, and he said in a low voice: "Master, the disciple is not good at learning, and he has lost Wudang's face, and he is willing to be punished when he goes back." β
The old man waved his hand and said, "I don't blame you, you stand down." He said to Lin Fenghua again: "I don't know what Your Excellency is called, where is the teacher? β
Lin Fenghua did not directly answer Xuan Chengzi's words, and said, "You Wudang, who has the best Taijiquan?"
Xuan Chengzi's eyes narrowed, "Naturally, the head of the family is respected." But listening to Your Excellency's tone, and forcibly broke into Wudang Mountain, hurting many of my disciples, are you here to pick quarrels and provoke trouble?" "Xuan Chengzi, as an elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, is upright, but his temper is also irritable, he listened to the disciples of his disciples to report, someone broke into the mountain gate alone, the disciples couldn't stop it at all, the head of the sect was in retreat, and the entire Wudang faction was in second place except for the head of the sect, and his own skills were ranked second, so he naturally wanted to come out to investigate and clarify the intentions of the people.
Lin Fenghua looked at Xuan Chengzi lightly, and said: "I have something to understand, and I want to ask your master, but your disciples are unreasonable, and there is no one in their eyes, so I can only find it by myself." β
Xuan Chengzi listened, his eyes narrowed into a slit, and said: "The head of the family has something important to do, and he can't see the guests." I'll talk about your matter later, you come to my Wudang to hurt my disciples, let's solve this matter first. β
"Oh, how are you going to solve it?" Lin Fenghua said proudly.
Xuan Chengzi's soap-colored robe suddenly became windless, and the internal force shook the stone slab under his feet to crack slightly, he slowly raised his palm, and said: "The disciples are not good at learning, I am the master to ask Your Excellency for a few tricks." β
Lin Fenghua saw that Xuan Chengzi wanted to do it with himself, so he was in the middle of it, gathered internal strength, and put on the defensive.
Xuan Chengzi looked at his momentum, and knew that Lin Fenghua's Tai Chi was not under him, not only was there no flaws in his body, but also the internal force was constantly rising.
Seeing this, Lin Fenghua slipped under his feet, his body was slightly on one side, and he let Xuan Chengzi's palm pass by his left side, this palm was a false move, Xuan Chengzi changed his move very quickly, turned his palm into a fist, and continued one move after another.
Xuan Chengzi is fast, Lin Fenghua is faster, he used a move of Tai Chi boxing to wrap the words, close to Xuan Chengzi's side, all Xuan Chengzi's attacks are too close to each other, and he can't use all his strength at all, Lin Fenghua or shoulder, or elbow, or knee lift, easily resolve Xuan Chengzi's offensive one by one.
Xuan Chengzi became more and more frightened the more he fought, and secretly said that this person's Tai Chi boxing method is so weird, obviously every move is not very orthodox, but he feels that the boxing method is above his own orthodoxy, and every move of his own is resolved by the other party in the simplest way, but he is already out of breath when he is attacking with all his strength, and the other party's breathing is still methodical and discerning.
Xuan Chengzi's attack was already overstretched, and a double wind hit Lin Fenghua, at this time Lin Fenghua did not defend, he rushed forward, and his body was almost attached to Xuan Chengzi, because Xuan Chengzi's fists were in the old force when he was retreating from his heart for a living, Lin Fenghua's left shoulder was hitting Xuan Chengzi's chest, Xuan Chengzi didn't have time to defend at all, and flew out upside down.
"Senior brother!" "Elder!" there were bursts of exclamations from all around. When the two were in the middle of a fierce battle, the surroundings were already surrounded by Wudang disciples. There were four old men at the head, and when they saw that Xuan Chengzi was repulsed, they stepped forward one after another, supported Xuan Chengzi, and protected him on his left and right.
Xuan Chengzi pushed away the four elders around him, wiped the blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and said in a low voice: "This person's fist skills are very strange, the internal force is even higher than me, the head is in retreat, this person's purpose is unknown, I can't let him disturb the head of the house, set up the formation." β
When the four of them heard this, they didn't dare to be careless, and they all stood on top of their own formations and slowly pressed towards Lin Fenghua. Lin Fenghua saw this formation and laughed, this is one of the several basic formations recorded in the second volume of the ancient book he obtained, although Lin Fenghua has not studied the formation, but some of the essentials of the formation handed down in Wudang have been lost, and Lin Fenghua is very familiar with the advantages and disadvantages of this five-elephant array.
Immediately, Lin Fenghua already understood in his heart that Wudang's Taijiquan was not invented by Zhang Zhenren, but from this ancient book. And the Wudang Sect has been circulating for a long time, and many of the quintessential boxing formations seem to have been lost. As a famous sect, the Wudang faction has many masters, and when the disciples of the natural sect are also integrated into many of their own understandings, there are many impurities in the Tai Chi heart boxing method that has been inherited.
Lin Fenghua found his own answer, and he didn't entangle with everyone here, and flew directly into the Five Elephants Array, in Lin Fenghua's eyes, this formation was full of flaws.
He condensed his internal force, first shook a palm to the person in front of the left, that person knew that Lin Fenghua's internal force was profound, he didn't dare to be careless, and defended with all his might, Lin Fenghua knew that the people in the left rear must join forces with the people in front of the right to attack him, sure enough, the two of them struck over with one left and one right, Lin Fenghua had already prepared, he made a false move, his body was like a ghost, and flashed directly behind Xuan Chengzi who was in the middle of the array, and the internal force was swallowed, and he flew out with one palm, and the direction of the flight was also calculated by Lin Fenghua, between the three people, and he turned around and forced away the lone person with a palmγ
In the eyes of all the Wudang disciples, the Wudang Sect's proud Five Elephant Formation was still jointly posed by the five elders, and it was directly broken by the other party in an instant.
Lin Fenghua said indifferently: "My heart has been resolved, and there will be a period of offending a lot." With that, he turned around and left, just a few steps away, Lin Fenghua seemed to remember something, turned his head to look at the five elders, the five elders were each shocked in their hearts, and involuntarily took a step back, Lin Fenghua smiled and said, "My name is Lin Fenghua." "Strode away.
The faces of the five elders were red and white, and everyone knew that they were not opponents at all, so they did not act rashly. Seeing that the elder did not stop him, the Wudang disciple also knew that his skills were completely inadequate, and watched Lin Fenghua walk down Wudang Mountain with fire-breathing eyes.
