A man in his forties led Liu Mang the way, going around and around to a back room in the backyard.
On the innermost wall of the house, there is a portrait of a tiger hunting in the forest. The tiger painting is quite clever, and I don’t know who painted it.
A bald and majestic old man with half-white eyebrows was sitting at the table pouring tea. There was a teapot and six small cups on the table.
"This is the green silk tea I asked someone to buy from Wucheng. It is said that it can only grow on the edge of the cliff, and the price is comparable to gold. Come and taste it."
"Thank you, Gang Leader." Liu Mang didn't show any pretense, he directly picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp.
"How is it?" Han Long showed an expectant expression.
Liu Mang pondered for a moment: "When I first drank it, it tasted slightly bitter, but after drinking it for a while, I felt a different taste, which made people have endless aftertaste."
Han Long smiled and said, "You know a lot about tea?"
"I don't understand." Liu Mang said truthfully.
"Then what you said is true."
"Since the gang leader has asked, I have to answer properly." Liu Mang said seriously.
Han Long laughed and said: "Good boy, I find that I like you more and more now!"
The two drank tea for a while, and Han Long said again: "Originally, I wanted to teach you the Tiger Demon Kung Fu, but seeing that you have already practiced other external kung fu, you have probably reached the stage of secondary skin training?"
Liu Mang said: "The gang leader has a sharp eye."
Han Long said: "Everyone in the world says that internal skills are slow first and then fast, and external skills are fast first and then slow. However, external skills are only as difficult as the first two trainings. As long as the talent is not too bad, you can always accumulate resources.
But by the third level of skin training, which is the level of iron skin, it is already a watershed and can block 99% of people in the world."
When Han Long said this, he paused, but it was clear that he wanted to give Liu Mang some advice.
Liu Mang understood in his heart and took advantage of the situation, clasping his fists and saying respectfully: "Please give me some advice, leader!"
Although he doesn't particularly need the skills and experience to break through from stone skin to iron skin, after all, he has an attribute bar. But he also has friends, and will also have a wife and children in the future. There is always no harm in accumulating more.
Satisfied with the exquisiteness of Liu Mang's mind, Han Long continued: "The key to breaking through from the second level to the third level lies in the true intention. When you reach the peak of the second level, you need to visualize every time you practice.
True intention, mobilize the spiritual sense in the body, and imagine yourself to be the thing in the picture.
At this time, the flow of Qi and blood throughout the body will undergo an extremely weak and beneficial change, so that the level of stone skin can be slowly transitioned to iron skin."
"However, visualizing the true intention requires a high level of spiritual awareness. Purely practicing external skills cannot improve the spiritual awareness. Therefore, a trick is to practice swordsmanship and boxing first, and then practice it to a small level, and then
It will be much easier to break through external skills."
Hearing this, Liu Mang suddenly understood and bowed to Han Long sincerely: "Thank you, leader, for your guidance!"
This kind of breakthrough experience is priceless. Han Long was really good to him.
Han Long said with a smile: "You have already trained your skin for the second time before you are eighteen. There is a good chance that you will be able to forge your bones before you are thirty. If you can successfully fortify your bones, your energy and blood will be maintained and you will not suffer from old age and physical weakness."
situation."
The world's external martial arts are generally divided into five levels: three times for skin training and two for bone training. If the bone training is not successful before thirty, then the Qi and blood will gradually decline after that, and the possibility of successful bone training will be lower and lower.
After giving instructions to Liu Mang, Han Long then took out something wrapped in black oil paper.
Carefully open the oil paper and take out a yellow booklet with three big black characters on it: Tiger Fist.
When he handed it to Liu Mang, he said, "Be careful, don't let me break it."
For some reason, Liu Mang suddenly thought of the casual attitude with which Mr. Yin threw the Sky Eagle Sword Technique to him. This was the class gap. After all, the background of the gang was different from that of the sect.
Liu Mang opened the first page of Tiger Fist and his eyes widened suddenly.
Originally, there was a line of text written on the top that should be a poem, but it was messed up by someone's strokes, and it was no longer legible.
Below, there is a line of annotations added at the end: If you have a tiger in your heart, fuck your mother!
The handwriting is quite individual and can even be described as ugly.
Liu Mang looked at Han Long in shock.
Han Long coughed in embarrassment: "When I was young, I was ignorant and felt that the owner of the secret book was being mysterious, so I scribbled on the secret book. But now I regret it.
However, the meaning of this line is similar to what I marked, and it will not affect your practice, so don't pay attention to it."
Liu Mang then turned back and saw that the next seven or eight pages showed little people practicing boxing moves, which were a combination of boxing, leg skills and footwork. For example, standing up for a long punch, squatting for an uppercut, and twisting for a side kick, there were about three
About ten moves.
The last page is the real intention, with a picture of a tiger standing on the top of a cliff and roaring at the sunset above.
There is a line of small words under the picture, which is the mental method of the Tiger Fist: rub your hands in meditation to heat them up, put your back on the essence gate, your heart is like electricity and clouds, your spirit is sitting in the pines and roaring in the evening...
Liu Mang's eyes did not linger on the mental method, but looked directly at the true intention.
He stared hard at his true intentions.
In a daze, he seemed to see a tiger. As the king of beasts, it was invincible on land, but it was unwilling to be left alone and wanted to challenge the sky.
"This boxing technique is so domineering!"
Liu Mang was shocked, and then the martial arts Tiger Fist appeared on the attribute column, and he directly entered the entry level!
This should be caused by my mastery of swordsmanship and proficiency in footwork. After all, one method is applicable to all methods.
Tiger Fist is not only a direct introduction, but also has two points of progress.
You can give it a try! Liu Mang had a hunch that this skill shouldn't be particularly slow when practiced.
He turned to the previous moves again, preparing to memorize them forcefully.
Han Long smiled and said: "Don't worry, you can come to me at any time to take a look. If I weren't worried that the true intention would be easily damaged, I would have lent you the secret book directly."
Liu Mang also said: "This secret book is so precious. If I carry it with me, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well at night. I might as well come here and read it every day."
Han Long laughed again after hearing this.
He looked at Liu Mang who was concentrating on reading. His face was sharp and angular when viewed from the side. Coupled with Liu Mang's height, qualifications, age, and the character of the other person who was quite filial to his mother, a thought suddenly came to his mind: "This boy is very good."
Yes, it's possible, but I don't know if Han'er can like him..."
Liu Mang read it back and forth several times and felt that he had memorized most of the tricks, so he stood up and said goodbye to Han Long.
In the next few days, Liu Mang would come to the headquarters every day to learn Tiger Boxing. At other times, he would practice boxing with everyone in the courtyard at the entrance of the hall.
As expected, his boxing progress also increased rapidly.
