【14】Wing Chun Hung Fist! 【Continue to hit the list】
It was a white letter with yellowed edges, but there was not a single word on the envelope.
Wu Di sighed, slowly pulled out the letter inside, opened it, and what came into view was the birth date and a name: Wu Di!
This is a letter symbolizing Wu Di's life experience. According to Uncle Cai, when he picked him up, he only had this letter with him.
Rubbing the thin letter paper, Wu Di's desire for his life experience became more and more intense. He read the letter paper for five minutes, and then grinned: "His mother's memory is gone, what a big deal...
"
After saying that, he shook his head freely, folded the letter carefully, and put it back into the small wooden box. At this time, he looked at the other things in the wooden box, two booklets, a string of Buddhist beads and a ring.
.
As a warrior monk, Wu Di was attracted by the string of Buddhist beads at first sight. He took them out out of curiosity. The beads felt cold in his hands, but there was a very strange feeling.
It is mysterious and mysterious, as if the human heart suddenly fell silent, and the mentality became extremely calm. This feeling is like sitting quietly in the Mahavira Palace, calming down to meditate and chant sutras, making people's body and mind calm...
Such a small string of beads actually had such a miraculous effect. Wu Di felt the artistic conception for a moment, then held up the beads and looked at them carefully.
There are eighteen Buddhist beads, but each one has different colors and materials.
This was the first time Wu Di saw such strange Buddhist beads, including bright and dazzling green emerald beads, and the yellow rosewood beads he saw on the abbot's hand...
There are eighteen pieces, each with different materials, but they are all rare things in the world.
There are several Buddhist beads made of materials that Wu Di has never seen before. In addition to the materials of the seven Buddhist treasures - gold, silver, amber, coral, clam, colored glaze, agate and chalcedony, there are also jade, pear wood,
Rosewood...
Wu Di really couldn't identify the remaining ones. One of them was particularly strange. It was an eyeball-shaped bead, which was larger than the other seventeen.
The eighteen beads are strung together with a kind of nine-color jade thread. Wu Di has seen this kind of thread on the abbot's string of huanghuali wood beads. It should be the best thread for making beads.
"Hey, there are patterns on it, it's incredible..."
Wu Di's sharp eyes immediately saw clearly that there was a pattern engraved on each bead. Fortunately, he was a monk from the Shaolin Temple, so he recognized what was engraved on it at a glance.
Eighteen Arhats!
Each bead is engraved with an Arhat of different shapes, subduing the dragon and subduing the tiger, supporting the tower and elongating eyebrows, lifelike and with extraordinary posture.
"The value of this string of beads is immeasurable... I estimate it is more valuable than the string of rosewood on the abbot's hand!"
Wu Di whirled around with this string of Buddhist beads, and then put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it according to the method of producing Buddhist beads in the temple.
Five have a unique fragrance, and the remaining thirteen are calming and peaceful. And the five with a pleasant fragrance, needless to say, must be wooden beads.
The most fragrant one had a refreshing fragrance and a strange medicinal smell. Wu Di was a little excited and thought of the finest material for making Buddhist beads - agarwood!
Agarwood, like wood but not wood, is as precious as red sandalwood and huanghuali. They are both the best woods for making Buddhist beads.
"Uncle Cai actually gave me this string of Buddhist beads?"
Wu Di really couldn't imagine it, because this string of Buddhist beads was so precious.
When he was in the Shaolin Temple, he had always envied the Buddhist bead ornaments worn by many of his fellow apprentices, and had always fantasized about having a string of Buddhist beads of his own. But now, with a string of immeasurable Buddhist beads in front of him, Wu Di couldn't believe it.
.
After a long time, he finally took a breath and said with a bitter look on his face: "Uncle Cai, I'm afraid you won't be able to repay the kindness you have shown me in this lifetime..."
He thought with some gratitude of the old man who had adopted him for four years, and his eyes became wet for a moment. This old man had taken good care of him for four years, and he was closer than his relatives. Before he left, he gave him such a heavy gift.
.
Of course, Wu Di is not a hypocritical person. It is not his style to feel ashamed and dare not accept anything. He is grateful to this old man from the bottom of his heart and has already treated him as a relative.
"Uncle Cai, the injury on your foot, whoever hurt you, I will repay him twice as much and cut off his limbs..." Thinking of Uncle Cai's limp, Wu Di felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Although he would not let himself take revenge, he
Some things have to be done by people.
"This hatred is irreconcilable!"
Wu Di gritted his teeth, thinking that one day when he arrived in Guangdong and Guangxi, he would definitely find out the truth. After thinking about it for a while, he buried this hatred deep in his heart.
He then picked up the strange ring and found that the bead on the ring holder was made of the same material as the largest human eye bead on the string of Buddhist beads just now.
It's just that the beads on this ring are much more complicated, with many lines similar to human eyes. Wu Di didn't think much about it, took a look at it, and put it back into the wooden box.
Only then did I pick up the two rather quaint booklets.
One has "Cai's Martial Arts" written on the cover in modern Chinese, and another has "Yi Gong Wu Lu" written in traditional Chinese on the cover!
After Wu Di thought about it, it became clear that the "Cai Family Martial Arts Talk" should record the views of the Cai family in Guangdong and Guangxi on martial arts; and "Yigong Wulu" was obviously the life and martial arts of Grandmaster Cai Jiuyi, the ancestor of Uncle Cai.
Sure enough, when Wu Di opened it and took a look, he knew that his guess was inseparable from ten. This "Cai's Martial Arts Talk" is some personal opinions of past Cai family martial arts masters on today's national martial arts. It was recorded from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China.
.
And "Yi Gong Wu Lu" is indeed Cai Jiuyi's lifelong study.
Relying on his strong memory, it took Wu Di two hours to memorize all the contents in it. From this viewing, he gained a huge amount. Not to mention his understanding of Chinese martial arts, it was Cai Gong and Cai Jiuyi's lifelong learning.
Wu Di was very happy.
Shaolin martial arts focuses on the word Zen.
The name "Shaolin Zen Martial Arts" refers to the artistic conception of the word "Zen" in Shaolin martial arts.
Over the years, Wu Di has learned a lot in Shaolin, but after reading Cai Jiuyi's martial arts records, he realized that except for "Xin Yi Bao", all the other martial arts he learned were the most basic Shaolin martial arts.
For example, Arhat Boxing, Shaolin Boxing, etc. The most powerful ones are the acupoint-grabbing techniques, and there are also some hard skills that require natural advantages, such as Golden Sand Palm and Eagle Claw Kung Fu.
Because of Wu Di's natural supernatural power, he was able to practice these outer martial arts, which were tailor-made. When he touched them with five fingers, even a mountain rock instantly turned into powder. This kind of strength was rare at that time.
But after all, the outer sect is not as orthodox as the inner one. Take the three internal martial arts and Tai Chi and Bagua Xingyi as examples. Any master of secret strength can turn mountains and rocks into ashes with just one move.
When martial arts is practiced to the point of dark strength, the power is no longer limited to oneself, but is released through the combined force of strength. This kind of momentary strength is much stronger than the brute force of Wu's enemy.
Unless he combines his own Ming Jin with divine power, he might be able to compete with An Jin, but pure strength is still not as sharp as An Jin.
So after Wu Di read "Yi Gong Wu Lu" and "Cai Shi Wu Tan", he realized that his practice was a bit inferior. Fortunately, any martial arts starts from the basics, and Wu Di's foundation is solid.
People envy.
Therefore, what Cai Jiuyi learned as recorded in "Yi Gong Wu Lu" can be mastered by Wu enemies, and there is no need to deliberately stand up and stand in order to practice a certain boxing technique well.
In the middle, save the most time-consuming part.
What pleased Wu Di the most was that many of Shaolin's long-lost martial arts were recorded in "Yi Gong Wu Lu".
You must know that after Hong Chengchou, Cai Jiuyi's direct leader and the governor of the three sides of the Ming Dynasty, was defeated and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, Cai Jiuyi was dissatisfied with this guy and finally defected to Songshan Shaolin angrily, studying Shaolin martial arts hard in an attempt to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.
After eight years of hard practice and careful teaching from the master, Cai Jiuyi finally learned Shaolin Kung Fu. He was eager for revenge. After completing the training, he immediately went down the mountain and returned to his hometown of Guangdong and Guangxi, and brought back the "Shaolin Kung Fu" given by his master.
The book "The Secret History of Shaolin Boxing".
At that time, Shaolin was known as the Master of Justice and had always been the strongest supporter of the anti-Qing Dynasty and restoration of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Cai Jiuyi was able to use this unique skill to recruit disciples and teach Shaolin martial arts in order to make a comeback.
The "Secret History of Shaolin Boxing" is completely recorded in the "Yi Gong Wu Lu". Of course, it also includes Cai Gong's best techniques of light body and super lifting, leg strikes and Shaolin Five Fists.
Each of these martial arts is a unique martial art. Although it is not as brilliant as the three fists of the inner family, it is still a first-class martial arts.
The Five Shaolin Boxings and the Twelve Forms and Ideas of Xingyiquan also have similar approaches and effects. They are both boxing techniques created by simulating the habits of animals.
And the book "Cai's Martial Arts" made Wu Di even more happy. It actually completely recorded two martial arts that were well known in China. It was unpretentious.
Both of these are famous martial arts schools in China, as famous as Tai Chi, Xingyi, Bagua and so on.
The saying that the world's martial arts originated from Shaolin is because Shaolin's martial arts are broad and complex, and the shadow of Shaolin's martial arts can be seen in many martial arts schools.
For example, Xingyi is derived from Shaolin's "Xinyiquan". It was later deduced by countless generations of martial arts masters and achieved the prestigious name of "Xingyi".
Wu is hostile to these histories and has a very thorough understanding of them.
Nowadays, many Shaolin martial arts have no written records. Many of them have to be passed down by word of mouth. Many powerful martial arts have been lost in the long river of history.
When the eighteen Shaolin warrior monks rescued Tang Dynasty King Li Shimin, the martial arts of Shaolin Temple were unparalleled in the world. But compared to now, it has become a thing of the past.
Hong Quan is also a set of boxing techniques derived from Shaolin Quan.
The founder of Hong Quan is Hong Xiguan, Cai Jiuyi's disciple. So it is not surprising that it is recorded in "Cai's Martial Arts". There are many versions of the origin of Hong Quan. Some say it was created by five masters.
Some honor Chun as their ancestor. But the most accurate one is related to Shaolin Temple and Cai Jiuyi.
When Cai Gong returned to his hometown, in order to improve the strength of his disciples, he took Fang Shiyu, Hong Xiguan and others to Southern Shaolin, which is the Putian Shaolin Temple in Guangdong and Guangxi.
One of the martial arts directly passed down from Shaolin is a unique skill brought to Southern Shaolin by Mr. Cai. It was created because Yan Yong learned from her father and acquired the authentic Southern Shaolin Crane Fist. She called the fist Yongquan!
Wu Di looked at "Cai's Martial Arts" and lamented the hot-blooded era, but fortunately, these martial arts have not been lost. His eyes were a little bright, and he closed his eyes to digest everything he saw today..., Hong Quan, Shaolin
With the five punches, Shaolin's mind control, and the light-body super-lifting technique, his future martial arts path will undoubtedly become clear. He opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes were filled with bright light...
