Heavenly Master, I have a different world - #18 - Chapter 18 Form and Meaning
Twenty thousand yuan!
Study for three months.
Didn’t you meet a liar?
Standing at the door, looking at the two closed outer doors in front of him, Fang Zheng looked suspicious.
Twenty thousand yuan, just gone?
I was only allowed to move around a bit and practice arm swings, leg presses, and splits, and then I was kicked out and told that I would see the progress in two days.
These……
Isn’t it a basic skill to practice dance?
I am learning martial arts, not dancing. Do you really think you know nothing?
Suppressing the idea of calling Mr. Lu to inquire, Fang Zheng took a deep breath and returned to Qilipu with a lot of murmurings.
Two days later.
“Done?”
Guo Ziran, who was weeding in the field, put down his hoe and looked at him with disbelief:
“Do a split first!”
Fang Zheng smiled contemptuously, slid his legs gently to both sides, landed his upper body smoothly on the ground, and performed an almost perfect split.
Then stand up, push your right leg up to the sky, and make your legs straight up and down.
Horizontal splits, vertical splits, and upward kicks were all done in one go. Her body flexibility was even better than that of many girls in the dance department.
“Well…” Guo Ziran narrowed his eyes slightly and looked back and forth:
“Have you practiced before?”
“Yes.” Fang Zheng nodded:
“I learned dance from someone for a while.”
He had practiced, but he had long forgotten it, and as he got older, his muscles and bones had become fixed, and he could no longer do the various movements he had done when he was a child.
This two-day practice was due to the hundred-day foundation-building method.
By practicing this method, Fangzheng’s body is like a secondary development, its plasticity is comparable to that of a baby, and its muscles seem to have no restrictions. It can reach this level in two days.
certainly,
Guo naturally didn’t know this.
He only knew that when Fang Zheng came last time, his muscles and bones were stiff and not suitable for martial arts training at all, but his performance this time was completely unexpected.
“It seems that your 20,000 yuan is not that good.”
Shaking his head, Guo Ziran put down his hoe helplessly and patted his hands:
“come on!”
There are many people who want to practice boxing, but most of them can’t endure the hardship at the beginning. I thought this person would be the same, and gave up halfway after practicing for a few days.
In this way, 20,000 yuan can be easily accounted for.
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a well-founded person. If he had known it, he should have asked for tens of thousands more.
Feeling secretly annoyed in his heart, Guo Ziran didn’t show any good looks. He came to the open space in the courtyard and took a horse stance, adjusted his body slightly and said:
“Xingyiquan starts with Zhuang Gong. You should practice these three postures first.”
“Don’t underestimate Zhanzhuang. If you are good at Zhanzhuang, you can stand up with Dantian Qi and integrate all your strength. If you are not good at Zhanzhuang, don’t mention anything else.”
Fang Zheng watched the opponent’s movements, his hands moved forward and then retracted, his body was slightly bowed, and his legs moved forward and back, which is called the three bodies of form and mind.
From the beginning to the end, the whole process is extremely smooth and full of a special kind of beauty.
But when it comes to strength…
can not tell!
“Don’t look at it, just learn to do it.” Guo Ziran stopped his movements and signaled to Fang Zheng to imitate him:
“Have you ever seen a kung fu movie?”
“Seen.”
Fang Zheng nodded and imitated the opponent’s movements, but he always felt a little awkward. His body was either leaning forward or leaning backward.
Even if I could barely stand, it was uncomfortable.
“If you have seen it, you should know that when two martial arts practitioners start a fight, they often assume a posture first.” Guo Ziran took a step forward, adjusted his stance, and asked at the same time:
“Do you know why?”
“Why?” Fang Zheng really hadn’t thought about this question. When he was watching it, he just thought the movements were very cool, so he guessed:
“To look good? To be on camera?”
“Pah!” Guo Ziran slapped him on the shoulder and scolded:
“What’s good to see?”
“If you want to take action, you must exert force and use your strength. The action is to integrate all the strength of the body so that you can hurt people when you take action.”
“If you practice Zhanzhuang very well, you can exert force with just one posture. This is the same whether it is Xingyiquan or anything else.”
“That’s why we say that all laws come from one source!”
Fang Zheng was stunned and nodded repeatedly:
“Master Guo, what are the specialties of our three-body posture?”
“The so-called three-body system is the head, hands, and feet, also called the three joints.” Guo Ziran touched his chin and paced back and forth in the field:
“Some people divide the postures of the Three-Body Zhuang Gong into three-seven, four-six and even one-nine. I don’t pay attention to this here, as long as the strength is strong.”
Dejin is a common saying in Luyu area.
handy!
awkward!
It refers to whether it is comfortable or not, but it is just right when used in three-body poses. In fact, many local sayings are closely related to kung fu.
Seeing Fangzheng’s stance swaying, Guo Ziran shook his head gently, without making too many adjustments, and continued:
“Xingyi Quan is also called Xinyi Liuhe Quan, which is divided into internal three combinations and external three combinations. The combination of hands and feet, elbows and knees, and shoulders and hips are called the external three combinations.”
“The union of heart and mind, the union of mind and Qi, and the union of Qi and force are the three internal unions.”
“Whether it’s the outer three or the inner three, the mind comes first, so standing in a good position mainly depends on the mind, and the posture is secondary.”
After a pause, he said again:
“Everyone has a different body shape and physique, so their stance skills are also different. Historically, Xingyiquan masters have different stances in their photos. Could it be said that their stance skills are not good?”
“Master Guo.” Fang Zheng smiled bitterly:
“You said so much, but you didn’t tell me how to stand properly? Is there any specific sign?”
“Idiot!” Guo Ziran rolled his eyes:
“My mind, my heart, I couldn’t put it more bluntly. Once you practice it until your thoughts and movements start, and you can do whatever you want, you have mastered Zhuang Kung Fu.”
“Are there any specific standards?”
Then he waved his hand:
“Go back and come back in two days.”
“ah!”
Fang Zheng was stunned.
Isn’t it?
Just a few words and a few actions, and two days of perfunctory work?
“Don’t look at me like that.”
Seeing Fangzheng’s strange eyes, Guo Ziran said calmly:
“Zhuang Kung Fu is the most important part of Xingyi Quan. It is a true inheritance. As long as you can practice Zhuang Kung Fu well, you will not lose the 20,000 yuan.”
Fang Zheng was doubtful.

Two days later.
Guo Ziran frowned and looked at Fang Zheng in front of him, standing in the three-position pose.
Although the movements are not very skillful, they already have some charm. The spine is like a big dragon, and it squirms slightly with the posture of the pile.
Introduction to Zhuang Gong!
this……
How can it be!
It took me more than a month to achieve this level, and it was under the guidance of a famous teacher. I was already called a martial arts genius. Why did I have the surname Fang?
Guo Ziran knew very well that Fang Zheng had never practiced the three postures two days ago. His movements were stiff and jerky, and there was no way he could fake them.
In just two days…
Can you actually get started with Zhuang Gong?
Although he has not reached the level of integrating strength with one breath anytime and anywhere, he has touched the threshold of martial arts and is qualified to continue learning.
“you……”
Looking at Fang Zheng, Guo Ziran hesitated and said:
“How do you practice?”
“Just follow what Master Guo taught.” Fang Zheng scratched the back of his head and smiled honestly:
“How comfortable and comfortable will come, and then that’s it.”
Guo Ziran looked suspicious.
There are many tricks involved in Zhuang Gong. If you don’t have a master to guide you and explore it alone, not to say that no one can master it, at least the chance is slim.
Unless he is a martial arts wizard who is rare in a century.
he……
Certainly not!
Fang Zheng could see the surprise in the other person’s eyes and couldn’t help but laugh secretly.
To put it bluntly, the integrated power of the three-body pose is similar to that of transporting qi and blood. Only when the posture is completed can the qi of the Dantian be generated. However, in another world, there is a method that allows people to clearly feel the qi and blood.
It is difficult to deduce the process without knowing the answer, but once you know the answer, it becomes simple to work backwards.
After thinking about this, Fang Zheng tried Zhan Zhuang when the big medicine stimulated Qi and blood. After a few adjustments, he found the way.
“Master Guo.”
He rubbed his hands and asked:
“What should I learn next?”
“Five elements!” Guo Ziran snorted coldly and said:
“Three body stances can integrate strength, but how can you hit someone if you stand still? The five elements of splitting, collapsing, drilling, cannon, and horizontal are all about moving.”
“I’ll practice it again, and you watch carefully.”
This time, I’ll see when you can master it!
