I think it's a relatively unsophisticated boxing technique. It's probably the tricks made up by those men who travel around the world to deceive the third master. It shouldn't be on the table. []
As for what Third Master said about practicing for a period of time, Li Ji automatically understood it to mean just a few days or a few months... "Have you never heard of Tai Chi?" He patted his forehead.
The true origin of Tai Chi comes from the swordsmanship and spear skills of the ancient cavalry. According to legend, it was Master Zhang Sanfeng of the Ming Dynasty who really started to use "Tai Chi" as a name for the boxing method and established a sect. Thinking about it this way, the Feng Dynasty is not the same.
Historically speaking, there should be no such term.
Li Ji shook his head. He himself was good at many boxing techniques, but even if he had not practiced any boxing techniques that were somewhat famous in the world, he would have probably heard of them. However, he had never heard of this 'Tai Chi'.
"Oh, let me explain a little bit first?"
Li Ji smiled and nodded. He didn't think that this third master could explain anything. Moreover, it was a really good boxing technique. If you didn't join a sect, it would be impossible to learn the true meaning. Even if you practiced a little, it would only be superficial.
It's not something that a master should try.
Just put on airs and deceive a layman, that's pretty much it.
He didn't consider Li Ji's thoughts at this time, but went through the ideas he had already compiled one by one.
The most reliable theory about Tai Chi is, of course, that when Zhang Sanfeng was sorting out the inner martial arts, he learned from the strengths of other schools, and after several years of study, he integrated the Taoist Book of Changes into it and formed the true theory of Tai Chi.
More realistic.
The reason why Tai Chi is named Tai Chi is of course related to yin and yang and Bagua. What it pays attention to is: being upright and comfortable, light and flexible, loose and soft, slow and even, opening and closing in an orderly manner, hard and soft in harmony, flowing like clouds and flowing water, and continuous.
Later, when the Tai Chi method was passed down, various schools emerged one after another. Each school had a different understanding of the Tai Chi method, so the paths they took were also different. Some took the calm path, and some took the light and agile path.
, there is also a comprehensive method that combines Tai Chi, Bagua, Xing and Yi... In fact, the avenues are interlinked, and although they are different paths, they lead to the same goal. When the kung fu is practiced to a high level, it is all accessible... The Tai Chi he practices is
The summary version specially compiled by the Tai Chi Association in later generations focused on the various changes in moves and omitted the internal training part. When he comprehensively studied Tai Chi methods, he found that various ancient books mentioned more than once: practice the form first and then
If you practice Qi.
After practicing Tai Chi for several years, the routines became more familiar than ever. As for how to practice Qi, he was a little confused. In his previous life, there were different opinions, and among the existing Tai Chi masters, there were few masters who practiced Qi very well.
Therefore, he doesn’t know how to distinguish who is right from wrong... Some say: Use breathing to guide the inner breath, and use external qi to replenish and stand to encourage the spirit; some say: Use the heart to move qi and balance yin and yang.
Practice Dantian Qi; there is a saying: when practicing boxing, fists, breath, and Qi are combined into one intention. When the concentration is sufficient, Qi will be generated, and this Qi is the internal force.
In fact, he prefers a more scientific view of modern research: The scientific point of view is that internal strength is an inch of energy, that is, the greatest explosive energy can be erupted as much as possible in a very short distance.
To achieve this goal, we must start with the structure of the body. The most primitive point of origin of the body's force is the tendon, and the tendon is directly connected to the bones and nerves. A slight movement of the deeper muscles from the body can drive
Large contraction movement of superficial muscles.
From this analysis, internal strength is how to mobilize as much movement of the deep tendons as possible at extremely fast speeds.
There are still many problems that bother him... For example: How to effectively mobilize the movement of the deep tendons in the shortest possible time? Just to effectively mobilize the outer muscles, that can only be in the category of hard qigong.
; For example: If such a large force is really mobilized, according to the principle of reaction force in physics, oneself will also bear a correspondingly large reaction force. Wouldn't this mean that it will injure one thousand people and damage oneself eight hundred?
For example: Is it possible to use some techniques, combine the principles of mechanics, and the structure of the human body to maximize strength?
All these problems were the reason why he wanted to find a master to study... But at this time, Li Ji had already entered a sluggish state after listening to his description of Tai Chi.
With Li Ji's level of martial arts, when he listened to him expounding the essences summarized by later generations, he had already realized the value of these essences.
Li Ji never thought that in this dynasty, the key points of Wuyi, which were regarded as treasures by various sects, would be spoken out by the third master in front of him... If the third master hadn't been very knowledgeable, otherwise, if the third master had said it,
Most of him didn't understand... Now, even if he wanted to despise the third master, he was afraid that he couldn't do it.
Putting aside his petty attitude, he thought carefully about what the third master said, and after a long time he said: "So, Tai Chi is a very advanced martial art... Well, 'Punching the place where the cow lies' proves it"
This is a small skill; but "moving clouds and flowing water, leaping and jumping" seems to say that this skill may not be able to be used in a wide range of ways; stroke, squeeze, press, elbow, lean, advance, retreat, consider,
Pan, Ding, these thirteen moves should be the secret boxing sutra, Third Master, do you know these moves?"
Seeing that Li Ji finally got interested, he didn't say anything. He took a sip of tea and put the tea cup on the stone table. Then he walked outside the shade of the tree and practiced the newly compiled one hundred and eight Tai Chi postures in a measured and deliberate manner.
I practiced boxing again.
The appearance is closely related to the meaning of "stick", "stick", "connect", and "follow". The movements are as natural as flowing water. Although there are a hundred and eight postures, they are like one posture, continuous... Li Ji's eyes lit up, and people were stunned.
He had already stood up involuntarily. It wasn't until he finished practicing all the moves that Li Jicai clapped his hands and shouted "Hello". Then he began to think deeply and walked around under the shade of the tree, mumbling something.
What are you thinking about... "It seems like something is missing... What is it? Something is missing..."
"The internal strength is missing..." He reminded Li Ji, but he was actually happy in his heart. An expert is an expert, and you could tell at a glance that there was something missing in his martial arts.
"Internal strength?" Li Ji was stunned, "No, no, it should be... it should be... telepathy... yes, it is telepathy..." Li Ji jumped up excitedly.
"Psychic power?" This time it seemed that he was shallow... "What is telekinetic power?"
Li Ji did not answer hastily, but closed his eyes and pondered for a while before saying, "Today's martial artists mostly focus on skills. They pay attention to the surprise of the moves and attacking the opponent's vital points. Take me as an example, before practicing martial arts, you must first
Train your body and use various methods to make your body strong to a certain level. Only then will you come into contact with boxing. Each sect has its own boxing and force-generating techniques. Master these tips, coordinate with the subtlety of boxing, and add
With a naturally gifted body, you can reach the level of a master. Of course, there are some schools with poor talents who want to strengthen through other methods. Most of these schools use swords and other weapons, and most of them focus on moves... No matter
In other words, boxing is the kingly way, but weapon strikes are sideways. However, no matter what, they cannot escape the category of 'skills'... This concept did not change until the emergence of 'mind power'...
"
"Oh..." He vaguely guessed that the mind power and internal strength are probably the same thing.
