Three days were enough for Wu Dong to learn the basic moves of Eagle Claw Kung Fu.
This was despite Yan Zhendong's serious teaching and Wu Dong's own martial arts foundation being not weak, but that was all.
Sure enough, it wasn't until I actually practiced it and understood it that I realized that the Eagle Claw Kung Fu is not that simple.
As a very famous external skill with good universal applicability, the Eagle Claw Kung Fu actually does not have many moves and routines, and it is not complicated.
Whether it's the fierceness and ferocity when flying in the air, or the grappling lock when attacking on the ground, it is not difficult for Wu Dong to learn.
The key is that the strength of the shot, the change in strength, etc., are the most troublesome and the most testing of the practitioner's skills.
Not only that, the power of the Eagle Claw Kung Fu is also related to the strength of the fingers and arms, as well as the hardness of the hand bones.
The Shandong Yan Family Eagle Claw Kung Fu has special methods in this regard.
According to Yan Zhendong, there are not only special methods to exercise the strength of fingers and palms, but also related auxiliary ointments and other prescriptions.
In addition, if you want to unleash the power of Eagle Claw Kung Fu, you must also exercise other parts of the body, such as waist and abdominal strength and leg strength.
As an offensive external skill integrating air and ground, the sharp moves of Eagle Claw Skill often require the cooperation of other parts of the body in order to exert its maximum power.
These were all things Yan Zhendong told Wu Dong as common sense when he was not practicing.
This is the difference between those who have inheritance and those who don't.
Many seemingly simple things, if there is no careful guidance from a master, I am afraid that I can only rely on my own slowly pondering and accumulation, and sometimes even pay a bloody price.
Of course, for Wu Dong, if he wanted to practice the Eagle Claw Kung Fu to gain entrance into the palace, it would be effective in battle, so there was no need to expect it in a short period of time.
He's not in a hurry...
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, after practicing martial arts with their younger brothers in the morning, Wu Dong and Yan Zhendong went out again and headed straight to the Hegang Pier in Foshan.
Foshan's geographical location is quite good. It is not far from the Pearl River Delta's outlet. Coupled with its own heritage, the river port terminal is quite lively.
A large number of young people are busy at the dock, and there is also an open-air market similar to a vegetable market.
Far away, I could hear Lin Shirong's loud and rough voice shouting.
Looking around, this guy's pork stall is quite conspicuous. Not only is the location good, but the environment is also not bad. At this time, he is wielding a bone chop knife to cut the pork on the chopping board.
"Hey, Master Yan and Brother Wu, why are you here?"
Just after seeing off a guest, Lin Shirong saw Yan Zhendong and Wu Dong standing not far away, and greeted them warmly and politely.
There is no way, Yan Zhendong looks like a standard Shandong man, more than half a head taller than the men on the dock, and it is difficult not to stand out.
Obviously, the two of them had a deep impression on Lin Shirong, otherwise he would not have recognized them at a glance.
"I heard the pier is lively, come and take a look!"
Wu Dong was not polite and walked over with Yan Zhendong, curiously saying: "I don't want Brother Lin to do business here!"
Yan Zhendong nodded to Lin Shirong but did not speak.
"A small business, just a small business!"
Lin Shirong laughed, dealt with another customer, wiped the oil stains on his hands, waved his hands and said with a smile: "Just call me Pork Rong, no need to be so polite!"
While we were talking, another customer came to the door. Apparently this guy's pork business was quite good.
Under the eyes of Wu Dong and Yan Zhendong, the two pork fans placed on the chopping board were decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, from time to time, vegetable vendors from surrounding areas would ask Lin Shirong to come over and mediate conflicts and act as an intermediary referee.
Gee, this guy’s influence in the dock is not small!
When the pork on the chopping board was almost sold, Lin Shirong simply collected the remaining bits and pieces and explained to the two of them with a smile: "Today's business is over, and the remaining bits and pieces are not easy to sell, so I might as well take them back and use them myself."
!”
Because business was good, Wu Dong and Yan Zhendong were not allowed to stay around for long, and it was not considered rude.
"Brother Lin, can I borrow your stall to do some small business?"
At this time, Wu Dong went straight to the point and said: "As you know, my little brothers and I are new to Foshan. Although we still have some savings on hand, we can't just sit back and have nothing. We have to have money to make a living to supplement our consumption!"
Lin Shirong moved slowly and asked curiously: "Can you tell me what kind of small business Brother Wu plans to do?"
He was a little wary and confused. During the meeting with Bao Zhilin years ago, he was standing behind his master Huang Feihong. Naturally, he knew that Liu Yongfu, the commander of the Black Flag Army, was quite fond of Wu Dong and expressed his invitation twice. However,
All were rejected.
I thought Wu Dong’s family was rich, but he didn’t expect that he wanted to start a small business at the dock?
What made him even more unhappy was that Wu Dong's proposal was obviously meant to take advantage.
His pork stall was built with fists. It was one of the best in the entire market. Wu Dong wanted to borrow it immediately. If he didn't know what he wanted to sell, he would naturally be reluctant.
"The herbal soup that refreshes and relieves fatigue is quite effective in Mingxian County!"
Wu Dong smiled softly, ignoring Lin Shirong's vigilance and dissatisfaction, and said leisurely: "This is a recipe passed down from ancestors, which can quickly restore the tired mind and body!"
At this time, not only Lin Shirong, but also Yan Zhendong beside him couldn't help but look surprised, obviously thinking that Wu Dong was telling lies.
Medicinal decoctions for refreshing and relieving fatigue can also be prepared in major medical clinics and pharmacies, but the effectiveness depends on the preciousness of the medicinal materials.
In other words, the more precious the medicinal materials are, the better the effect will be.
Wu Dong actually said nothing but white teeth. He sold a medicinal decoction to refresh himself and relieve fatigue. The effect was extremely obvious. Can he make money?
You know, the largest number of people on the dock are coolies who make money with their sweat!
"A Dong..."
Yan Zhendong hesitated to speak. He also did not expect that Wu Dong's so-called livelihood was actually this.
Feeling a little disappointed...
At this time, Wu Dong gave him the same feeling as a man selling Dali Pills on the street.
In fact, the effect of the decoction Wu Dong sells is really the decoction version of Dali Pill, but the effect is quite good.
Wu Dong chuckled and said: "I know you two don't believe it. If you don't mind the trouble, you can wait and taste it for yourself and you will know!"
When he said this, his face was full of confidence, without any anger or discomfort at being questioned, and he seemed quite open and natural.
Seeing him acting like this, Lin Shirong hesitated a little. According to his temperament, as a friend, he shouldn't be suspicious.
However, if Wu Dong wanted to borrow his stall, he had to treat it with caution.
When others see this, they will naturally think that the relationship between the two is close, and the quality of the decoctions Wu Dong sells is naturally linked to his own reputation.
