Chapter 2 I came from the mountains

Thirteen Taibao Henglian this kung fu, in the traditional martial arts school is a typical foreign kung fu, the surname is fierce and violent, ordinary people practice if they can't do it, without the guidance of a famous teacher, it is the most hurtful but hurtful. And this kung fu is the most important step by step, when you are just learning, you can't be impetuous, brave and diligent, otherwise your own qi and blood generation can't catch up with every consumption, and you can refine people for a long time. When Wang Chan and Wang Daliangzi first began to practice this kung fu, they first used herbs to take internal and external washes, and only dared to practice after consolidating their qi and blood for two years, during which they did not know how many precious medicinal materials were wasted, and then Wang Daliangzi died, and he practiced for thirteen years step by step, which led to today's achievements.

Standing on the ground, breathing in the back of his abdomen to evenly tune out his breath and become peaceful and profound, Wang Chan put on his shirt and trousers, and took out a thin thread-bound manuscript from the deerskin bag he carried with him. This is also a relic left by Wang Daliangzi before his death, it is a book like a secret book, but it is not a paper thing, it seems to be a sheepskin after being tanned by a special method, and the pages are thin and tough, which is obviously not a product of modern times.

The book has become yellowed like a withered leaf, on the first page of the book was written in the style of cinnabar ink in the style of a small seal, the bottom of the inscription is a person called "An Jingsi", and then opened to only thirty or fifty pages, the top is densely filled with words, painted with graphic figures, action posture, although it is transcribed with a brush white, it is the style is simple, lifelike, revealing a majestic atmosphere outward.

The whole book is a hand-copied small seal, if it weren't for Wang Daliangzi's collection of books in the Guandi Temple, Wang Chan alone in the mountains, idle and always read and understand, this full of ghost-drawn small seals he is afraid that even half of the people can't come out. And in this book, it is only the first part of the record of the thirteen Taibao horizontal practice of kung fu, the second half of the book is full of text and no graphics, and the record is a metaphysical work similar to "Wuzhen Chapter" and "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Deed", all over the paper is what dragon, tiger, lead and mercury, baby and girl, I don't know what the specific origin is.

Wang Chan once said for a period of time that he studied and translated this part of the content, and finally found that the content described in it was really mysterious and mysterious, and it was not enough to be believed.

In ancient times, Taoist priests believed that there were immortals in people, and after taking pills and meditating for a long time, they could ascend to the immortal level in vain and become immortals. Since the search of the past dynasties, he is unwilling to go elsewhere outside the law, so he will write his own feelings of seeking the Tao with all kinds of "secret words", if he is not the real heir of his own family, which one to see, he can only be confused, even if it is all true, without the guidance of a master, it is absolutely impossible to understand.

Fortunately, Wang Chan himself was not interested in these things, and after studying them for a few days, he ignored them and only devoted himself to practicing the Henglian Kung Fu recorded above. The thirteen Taibao horizontal practice is not a secret kung fu, not to mention that each faction has some records, that is, today's society is prosperous, after the rise of firearms, the martial arts used to protect one's life and never spread the word have become a doorway for the general public to exercise, whether it is printed in batches in Xinhua bookstores, or true and false secret mantras on the Internet, it is a mess of flooding.

Although Wang Chan has been guarding the temple in the mountains for a long time, he has never gone out of the mountain for a single step, otherwise he said that he often needs it, where does the rice, oil and salt come from? His Guandi temple was originally in the Qing Dynasty, came to Daxinganling to pick sticks and mallets, in order to pray for peace and suppress evil and funded the construction, although no one has come to the temple to burn incense over the years, but throughout the year there are always a few old guests who go into the mountains to collect medicine and hunt to stop in the temple, so I am not worried that Wang Chan will lose any human instinct because no one cares about it.

Hutou Town, which is 130 miles away from Hutouling, has become a large trade port on the bank of the Ussuri River because of the country's reform and opening up in recent years, and Russia on the other side of the river has become a large trade port. Once every three months, Wang Chan went down the mountain to the town to sell the herbs he had collected, and his favorite places to go were bookstores and Internet cafes, so he also checked a lot of information about the Thirteen Taibao Heng Gong Kung Fu.

It's just that most of those things are the same, and there are no new eye-catching ideas, compared to the books in his hand, they are only scratching the surface.

"If you practice horizontal practice kung fu according to those methods that are circulating outside, it is a hard qigong at best, although you can block the slashing of ordinary swords, but it will never last long, once the internal qi is dissipated, it is just more strength than ordinary people. Compared to me, I have practiced these, but I have missing the most essential parts, and I can't cultivate both inside and outside, so I have to do fur kung fu, which is not true!"

"But in today's society, martial arts are no longer the mainstream, ordinary people can kill people with guns and two fingers, which is comparable to my ten years of hard practice. I only hate that I was born at the wrong time, otherwise I will go back to the past in another era, and I will be able to become a marquis with my own style, divide the territory and achieve a great cause. ”

Martial arts were originally created to save lives and kill, and this is where the trend lies in the era of cold weapons. But in this era, the whole world is advocating peace, stressing the rule of law, the emergence of the fire yao cannon has completely wiped out the soil for the survival of martial arts, the longer the time, the more it declines, this year to practice martial arts, as if in the era of no dragons to learn dragon slaying, it is really not much use.

It's just that Wang Chan grew up in the deep mountains and old forests since he was a child, and the threat from wild beasts exists from time to time, and he can save his life at a critical moment when he practices a kung fu, especially this horizontal kung fu until now he has been practicing for more than 20 years.

In addition, this kung fu is also the last thought left to him by the old man, and Wang Chan doesn't want it to cut off the "fire" on himself, so he has persevered for so many years, and he doesn't dare to waste it at all.

On the top of the mountain, the moonlight is like water, and the light is everywhere, although it is not too bright, Wang Chan can also follow this moonlight and carefully read the book in his hand from beginning to end. This is the experience of Sage Confucius, and it is true, even if he has already been able to memorize the contents of this book backwards, he still needs to play with it from time to time, and sometimes the process of reading is actually the process of cultivation.

Carefully put away the book in the bag, saw a tall red pine tree more than ten meters high opposite, Wang Chan suddenly picked up the ebony pole on the ground with one foot, the front and back of the struggle, shook, the front end of the three-meter-long pole was lightning like a circle with a diameter of more than one meter, a vicious wind sounded, the air in front of him seemed to be blown up all of a sudden, the thorn flicked, the oblique thorn was drawn on the thick trunk, and the bark was cracked. The tip of the pole in his hand suddenly seemed to turn into a sharp axe blade, and a bowl-sized hole was broken in the trunk of the red pine.

Another whistling, Wang Chan twisted his waist violently, and the ebony pole was pierced out of his backhand from under the right rib, just like the ancient general's defeat and a "return to the horse gun", a stick pierced out, just like a meteor catching the moon, just listen to the bang, such as the middle of the bery, and smashed it the gap just exposed in the trunk, and when he let go of his hand, he found that the ebony pole was actually pierced into the trunk of the tree as deep as three inches, suspended in the air, buzzing.

The thirteen Taibao horizontal practice kung fu is said to be passed down from the late Tang Dynasty five generations after the Tang Taizu Li Ke used thirteen godsons with their own unique skills, of which the thirteenth is the legend once entered Chang'an City with eighteen iron horses, scared Huang Chao desperately run, brave tiger general Li Cunxiao. Although it may not be taken seriously, the thirteen Taibao are all immediately powerful, and in the books in Wang Chan's hands, there are indeed many kung fu such as spears, halberds, horse lances, bows and arrows.

If it is just now, his move is called "Tiger Turn" a trick of spearmanship, a total of shake block, tie, withdraw, entanglement a lot of exquisite, Wang Chanping said that the stick is a gun, in order to be the subtle skills of the overall force in the body boxing technique, more than ten years down, has already been practiced to the melon.

It's a pity that there is no war horse beside him, and he can't practice the equestrian and spearmanship of integrating people and horses, and the several long weapon moves recorded in the book are completely useless in this era.

Stretching out his hand to probe the hole that he had pierced with a stick, Wang Chan carefully recalled the scene just now, and felt that he seemed to have made a lot of progress, so he grabbed a handful of dirt on the ground and stuffed it into the hole, so that people could not see clearly, so he simply cleaned it up, and walked down the mountain.

On the way back, it was no different from when he came, wearing a vest filled with iron sand, with strange steps under his feet, the ebony pole in Wang Chan's hand picked whatever he saw, whether it was a branch or a big mountain stone, but wherever the stick could touch, he pulled away with a pole, swept far away, and when he climbed over the wall into his own courtyard wall, the eastern sky had slightly revealed a little misty light.

"The hour is almost over, but today is a little delayed!" Wang Chan did not enter the temple, but only strode to the front of the stove in the courtyard, and saw that the firewood piled up when he left had been burned, and only a pile of dim coals remained, boiling the water in the iron pot above. Hurriedly took out a wooden barrel that was more than half a person high from the corner of the side, and after brushing it clean, he threw dozens of kinds of "grass root bark" into it, and then scooped hundreds of catties of boiling and bubbling hot water into the pot.

After three or five minutes, the air began to fill the air with a strong medicinal fragrance, and the color of the water in the wooden barrel became dark and red. This large bucket of hot water is also a medicinal bath that he has had to soak every day since he was a child, and it is the same secret recipe that he used to apply to his body before is a secret recipe that can strengthen muscles and bones and increase qi and blood.

You must know that people who practice martial arts are consuming their limited qi and blood energy all the time, and the human body is ultimately small, and all potential needs a lot of supplementation to be completely stimulated, so since ancient times, there has been a saying that the poor learn and learn martial arts, and without a lot of money, those precious medicinal materials that nourish the body's development potential will never fall from the sky. For example, Wang Chan has been practicing martial arts for so many years, and in the early stage, it was Wang Daliangzi who prepared everything for him, so that he could lay a solid foundation for him before he passed away, so that he could continue to practice with the methods he taught.

The Great Khing'an Mountains is a veritable treasure trove of animals and plants, as long as you are careful and have the right methods and abilities, almost all the medicinal materials that Wang Chan needs can be found here, whether it is a mountain cucumber mallet that is more than 100 years old, or a bear gall and tiger bone protected by the state, and this is the biggest reason why Wang Chan has been willing to stay in the deep mountains and old forests. Before he has a successful husband, he is not going anywhere!

Moreover, Wang Chan is diaotic, does not like vegetarian food, needs to eat a lot of meat at every meal, after more than 20 years, even he himself does not know how many bears and tigers he killed, the fur is peeled off to "exchange money", tiger bones, tiger blood, bear bile are used to dispense medicine, and the rest is full of his appetite. In this place of Daxing'an Mountains, the mountains are high and the forests are deep, the temperature is extremely low, and the animals that grow here are very vigorous, especially the fierce beasts such as bears and tigers, the body is huge, and there are more than 1,000 catties when they move, and the essence contained in the flesh and blood is even more nourishing. There is also the flying dragon soup, the taste is even more wonderful, if he leaves here, he will have nothing on him, where can he find these uses!

"My kung fu is an authentic and true tradition, and those fakes outside the mountain are completely different, but what can I do if I practice to the top, is it not that I am young and like the old man, and I will be old in the mountains? But even if it is an old man, when he was young, he was not so wonderful to live, after seeing all the red dust, he was satisfied and returned to the mountains and forests, it seems that I can't stay in this mountain for too long, otherwise I will inevitably lose my sharpness in the long run, and my mood will become depressed and twilight. ”

Thinking of the old man who raised him, Wang Chan couldn't help but feel a fever in his heart. His faction's kung fu is actually the secret method of the old man and his family, only one person per generation, and the male does not pass on the female surname, to the old man's generation, he is alone, no children and no daughter, after living in seclusion in the mountains, he thought that he was going to completely cut off the incense, but unexpectedly rescued Wang Chan from the mouth of the wolf, and he was regarded as a successor.

Later, when Wang Chan grew up, the old man was dying, and he became more and more willing to tell him about his past affairs. According to him, the ancestor of the old man's family once had an ancestor who was an errand guard in the imperial city of Kyoto, and the biggest evil thing he did in his life was to serve the secret decree of Emperor Yongzheng, mobilize the army, and encircle and suppress the "Southern Shaolin" in Putian, Fujian, and burn it to the ground, and the book in his hand that recorded the thirteen Taibao horizontal kung fu was also that time, his ancestor used his power for personal gain in the Shaolin Temple of the scriptures stolen out of the building.

As a result, many years later, the East Window Incident happened, Emperor Yongzheng was furious, and the ancestor of the old man was notified by his colleagues in advance, so he took a family from Yanjing City to Guanwai, and took root, which can be regarded as passing down this "craft" intact.

When a layer of fish belly white appeared in the eastern sky, the water in the wooden barrel gradually cooled down, and the dark red medicinal liquid became a little turbid, Wang Chan jumped out of the wooden barrel, dried his body, changed into a set of clean clothes, and then went to the back of the temple to eat the flying dragon soup that had been kept warm on the stove in one go, and then casually lifted a bulging hemp bag in the courtyard and walked out of the courtyard door leisurely.
