Chapter 487: Breaking the Plank
After Ji Aojian frightened these teenagers, he changed his words, "If I tell you directly, practicing martial arts is useless, and you won't be convinced in your hearts." Then let me tell you first, what do you think is good about practicing martial arts?"
After a few moments, no one spoke.
Fluttershy encourages, "It's okay, it's okay, just speak your mind and say what you think." ”
So a young man took the lead and said, "If you are successful in martial arts, you will be able to do chivalrous and righteous deeds, fight grievances, eliminate violence and peace, and rob the rich and help the poor." ”
There is an interface below, "You can also be free, happy and hateful, send love to the mountains and rivers, and be free between the rivers and lakes." ”
Someone else weakly said, "At least I have the power to protect myself, and I won't be bullied by the strong......"
"It's all individualistic thinking. Ji Aojian shook his head and sighed, "Now that China's external situation is sinister, and the state sends you out to study at public expense, you only think about your own freedom?"
"Master Hou, of course we know that the great powers are peeping and China is in danger. A young man said unconvinced, "So we can use martial arts to assassinate foreign dignitaries, so that the countries will definitely have scruples and dare not covet our Ming Dynasty anymore." ”
Ren Xiaodie nodded on the side, "Yes, yes, this idea is very beneficial to the country and the people, so it can be seen that martial arts training is still somewhat useful." ”
"Lead the knife into a fast, do you live up to the boy's head?"
Ji Aojian changed the question noncommittally, "Whether it's eliminating violence and peace, or assassinating politicians, how strong do you think you need to practice martial arts?"
"Naturally, the higher the better. ”
"Oh, is it possible to do those things with your current skills?"
"This. It's basically enough. ”
"You guys really feel good about yourself. Ji Aojian didn't say anything more and commanded. "Ancient Tower, fetch a plank. ”
The ancient tower immediately brought the timber that had been prepared.
Ji Aojian held it with both hands. "Just now you said that you have practiced kung fu well, and it should not be difficult to break this plank with your fists and feet. ”
Looking at this fluttering piece of wood, the students were full of confidence and nodded in unison, "It's naturally easy." ”
"In that case, you might as well give it a try. ”
The first student stepped forward and slammed his fist on the board, followed by a heavy scream of "ouch"!
Ji Aojian comforted, "It's okay to keep punching. You can do it a few more times. ”
After a few more punches, the young man said with a bitter face, "Master Hou, my fist is already swollen, this thing really can't be beaten." ”
"If it doesn't work, go down and replace the next one. ”
After a while, all five of them rubbed their red and swollen right hands and inhaled cold air.
"How is it?" Ji Aojian looked at them with a mocking face, "You can't even break a single plank. I even think that my martial arts are not bad?"
Ren Xiaodie also sighed and said, "It seems that you are indeed not this piece of material for martial arts, so you should give up as soon as possible." ”
"No, no, no, Sister Fluttershy. We're not going to give up. A teenager said angrily, "We just haven't practiced enough, and we will practice hard for a while." We're going to be the masters. ”
Ji Ao Kendao, "Practice hard for another ten or eight years." Become a master who can even beat wood?"
At this moment, the teenagers were collectively indignant. "Master Hou, don't look down on people too much, after another ten years of practice, how can we still be helpless against the plank?"
"How powerful do you think the martial arts in this world are?" Ji Aojian said lightly, "Being able to practice to the point of breaking wooden planks is basically the limit, and many people can't reach this level even if they practice for a lifetime." ”
"Impossible!" everyone retorted unanimously, "where the flyover is performing, everyone can split bricks empty-handed." If even bricks can be easily split, how can it be so difficult to break wood?"
"So you've seen a lot of street brick-splitting shows. Ji Aojian suddenly realized, "What kind of program with chest gravel and silver spear against the throat, you also often watch?"
"Exactly. ”
"So you think that as long as you practice martial arts, you will have infinite abilities, invulnerable, and fight a hundred at a time?"
"yes. ”
"And many of those street performers are teenagers of the same age as you, so you still think that martial arts can be achieved quickly?"
"Not bad. ”
"Kids, you've been fooled. ”
Ji Aojian said earnestly, "Those street martial arts are all tricks to deceive people, not real kung fu at all. ”
"We don't believe it. ”
"Okay, let me ask you, why do those heroes who are infinitely powerful and invulnerable perform on the streets, instead of doing chivalrous deeds, fighting grievances, eliminating violence and peace, robbing the rich and helping the poor?"
“......”
"Those heroes who are infinitely powerful and invulnerable, why do they want to perform on the streets, instead of being free, happy and hateful, loving the mountains and rivers, and enjoying themselves among the rivers and lakes?"
“......”
"Why do those heroes who are infinitely powerful and invulnerable perform on the streets instead of assassinating foreign politicians, so that the great powers do not dare to covet our Chinese heart and become great heroes who save the country and the people?"
“......”
"Those heroes who are infinitely powerful and invulnerable, why do they want to perform on the streets, instead of robbing the Qianzhuang Silver Building, and a lot of money comes directly, anyway, the government can't help them at all?"
“......”
The confidence of the teenagers was finally shaken, and they exchanged their heads and said, "Could it be that those street magic skills are really fake?"
"Of course they're fake. Ren Xiaodie explained, "If the street performers are all martial arts heroes, and there are such shows everywhere in the country, there will be so many heroes that there will be a flood." ”
"Even if the kung fu of street shows is fake, is there no real kung fu in this world?"
"Authentic martial arts are not out of the question. "Ji Ao Kendo," However, these martial arts require years of hard practice, not to mention, let alone practiced, there is no magical effect of street showing. ”
"What effect does that have?"
"Didn't I just say that breaking a plank is already a great achievement. Ji Aojian added, "Note that it's a wooden plank, not a wooden block, and it's not a log. ”
The teenagers didn't give up and said, "Is that really the case?"
"Originally, any martial arts in the world can get the 'black belt' achievement if you can smash the wooden board with your bare hands. Ji Aojian said solemnly, "For ordinary people, this is already a supreme achievement, and it can be comforted for a lifetime." ”
This time, not only are the students confused, but even Fluttershy is confused, "Brother Ten, what is a 'black belt', why have I never heard of it?"
"The black belt is the highest level in the boxing division. It's normal that you haven't heard of it, but in the future, let's form an international martial arts association, which can promote this hierarchy as an international standard system. (To be continued......)
