After Tanarata left with the Japanese, Gong Baosen was surrounded by people, shouting in all directions.
"Master Gong, our secret sect boxing will do our part to defeat the Japanese. My apprentice is just seventeen this year, which just meets the requirements."
"Humph, is the Secret Sect Boxing very powerful? This is a major matter that affects the reputation of our Northeastern martial arts community. The candidate must come from our Tai Chi Sect."
"Just because the sect is famous doesn't mean the apprentice is great. If you're not convinced, I'll see you in the ring!"
This is martial arts, this is Jianghu. On the surface, they are talking about how to fight against the Japanese, but in fact, they are all competing for this opportunity to be in the limelight.
Gong Baosen's face was as dark as water. Facing the noise around him, he took a deep breath and said in a loud voice.
"Everyone, today is my daughter's first birthday. Let's postpone the rest of the discussion. If you don't greet me well, please take a seat and have a couple of drinks first."
Everyone was also shocked by his hand.
"It is said that Gong Baosen is both physical and mental, and is the master of the two great internal martial arts of Bagua. Now that I have seen him, his reputation is indeed well-deserved. This internal martial art has probably reached its peak."
"It is said that internal martial arts can be practiced to the extreme, which can temper the internal organs. Gong Baosen just used the resonance of the internal organs to trigger the vocal cords, and the sound can be heard for ten miles without scattering. It is really good skills."
Qin Hao's heart moved. Master Li Cunyi once told him that the biggest difference between internal boxing and external boxing is not in the moves and methods of exerting force, but that each internal boxing has a unique set of secret techniques for tempering the internal organs.
After practicing boxing to a certain level, the bones and muscles have become sharp and firm. At this time, the kung fu must be moved into the body, that is, it must penetrate into the internal organs. But this step is very difficult. You need to use sound to guide it. The sound goes from the inside to the outside, and the strength
From the outside to the inside, the inside should be combined with the outside.
Xingyiquan calls it "tiger and leopard thunder sound", Tai Chi calls it "tiger roar and ape cry", and Baguazhang calls it "tiger roar and dragon roar".
However, Li Cunyi also said that the so-called "Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound" is not as mysterious as the legend says. It is essentially a method to assist in practicing martial arts.
As for "zhenqi" and "internal strength", they are nothing more than a product of Taoist theory when a boxer reaches the limit of his human body and is unable to break through.
Li Cunyi looked very helpless when he said this. In his early years, he had achieved great success, and his physical strength and boxing skills had reached their peak. However, the limits of the human body were there, and he could never break through the barriers. He could only watch himself gradually weaken from the peak.
, that feeling is undoubtedly the greatest torture for a warrior.
According to Li Cunyi, internal strength only has a certain effect in slowing down aging, which is why many boxers are still able to go to the ring and fight with people in their later years.
Qin Hao is not worried about this, because he not only has attribute fruits, but also genetic potions, which can break through the physical limits.
However, Li Cunyi did not teach Qin Hao the internal skills of Xingyiquan. He always felt that Qin Hao was too young and his internal organs were not fully developed. Practicing internal skills hastily would probably leave hidden injuries.
Regarding Li Cunyi's affection for licking the calf, Qin Hao planned to practice Xingyiquan to the point of perfecting his external skills before persuading him. After all, he was still far from the state of "muscles and bones roaring together".
What's more, he doesn't intend to just follow the inner boxing path.
Qin Hao really wanted to know what heights the modern fighting skills training method of Neijiaquan could reach in the end.
In the front hall, under the spotlight, Gong Baosen carried Gong Ruomei, who had just turned one year old, to a table.
There are various small objects placed on the table, including small abacus and sparkling gold hairpins, scattered in no order.
Under Gong Baosen's caring eyes, the naive Gong Ruomei climbed up to a golden hairpin.
The guests praised him one after another.
"In the future, Miss Gong will surely be the most charming person in the country."
"If this girl chooses a golden hairpin, she will definitely have a beautiful face in the future."
However, amidst the discussion of the guests, Gong Ruomei suddenly threw the gold hairpin in her hand out of the table, then moved her chubby body to the far right corner of the table, and in the astonished eyes of everyone, she threw a dagger
Holding him in his arms, smiling happily.
Gong Baosen's expression was a little complicated for a moment. He naturally hoped that someone could inherit his martial arts and career, but he didn't want his daughter to bear all this.
His only hope for his daughter is to grow up safely, marry happily to a good family, and have enough food and clothing for the rest of her life.
After the week-catching ceremony was held, the atmosphere in the front hall completely changed. The tables and chairs were returned to their positions, and many martial arts people took their seats according to their respective statuses.
Gong Baosen naturally sat in the chief position, and Li Cunyi was invited to sit next to him. No one raised any objections to this. After all, Li Cunyi was not only Gong Baosen's senior brother, but also the former leader of the northern martial arts world. Even if
It's more than enough to sit in the chief position.
"Master Gong, let's make arrangements as soon as possible for the martial arts competition with the Japanese. The competition will be in three days. If there is any accident, we should make arrangements in advance."
"Well, Master Liu is right. This martial arts competition with the Japanese is of great importance. It is not only related to the honor of our martial arts community in Northeast China, but also the face of the entire three northeastern provinces."
"That's right, this battle only allows for victory and not defeat, so we must select the disciples with the strongest martial arts skills to fight."
Gong Baosen took in the crowd's reactions and looked at Li Cunyi helplessly. Li Cunyi shook his head gently, picked up the tea cup and took a sip to moisten his throat. He had seen this kind of scene many times in the Chinese Samurai Association.
It is precisely because of this that he became disheartened and gradually faded away.
"Everyone's words make sense. How about setting up a ring in Wuguan Street starting from tomorrow, conducting selections, and finally selecting three young disciples to represent our Northeastern Wulin?"
Everyone present had no objection to this. After all, they were going to fight the Japanese. If they lost, they would lose their own face, so they would definitely choose someone who could fight in the ring.
After that, Gong Baosen discussed the rules of the competition with everyone before sending them away.
"Old Jiang, close the door."
After seeing off the guests, Gong Baosen's face was as dark as water. After saying something, he walked to the backyard.
Ma San followed him cautiously. As soon as he stepped into the main room in the backyard, he heard Gong Baosen yell: "Kneel down!"
Ma San's heart skipped a beat and he quickly knelt down.
Gong Baosen gritted his teeth and said: "Tell me what happened, and whether you killed those two Japanese samurai. If you don't say a word, you will no longer be my apprentice!"
Ma San subconsciously looked at Qin Hao.
Before Ma San could speak, Qin Hao saluted Gong Baosen and said, "Uncle Gong, I killed those two Japanese samurai."
When Li Cunyi heard this, his expression remained normal and he didn't say anything. In his opinion, it was just a matter of killing the two Japanese samurai, and it was no big deal.
Gong Baosen sighed: "Master nephew, the situation in Northeast China is currently turbulent. If you don't get it right, it will cause a big mess..."
"The Japanese have been eyeing the Northeast for a long time. The reason why they haven't taken action now is because they are not ready yet. Once they make up their mind to take action, there will be no excuse." Qin Hao said lightly.
When Gong Baosen and Li Cunyi heard this, their faces changed drastically. The tragic situation of the Eight-Nation Allied Forces was still fresh in their memories.
Seeing that Qin Hao was taking the blame for himself, Ma San quickly explained what happened to Gong Baosen.
Gong Baosen sighed: "The current plan is to take it one step at a time."
Then he said to Ma San: "I always say that I won't give you a chance, but I will give you this chance now. Whether you can seize it or not depends on you."
Ma San was pleasantly surprised when he heard this. Is there anything in the Northeast that could be more famous than fighting the Japanese at this moment?
Li Cunyi thought for a while and said to Qin Hao: "You can go too."
"good."
Gong Baosen looked at Li Cunyi in surprise when he heard this. In his opinion, although Qin Hao was "lucky" to beat Ma San once, it was because Ma San carelessly underestimated the enemy and really wanted to go to the ring to fight. After all, he was only an Eleven
If something happens to a child who is 10 years old, his bright future will be ruined.
However, the reason why Li Cunyi asked Qin Hao to compete in the ring was actually to support the Northeastern martial arts community. He was very clear about Qin Hao's fighting ability. Not to mention children under the age of eighteen, even those famous masters could not
He must be the opponent of his apprentice.
.......
The next day, Wuguan Street became lively early in the morning.
In addition to the martial arts masters and disciples from various martial arts schools, there were also many people who came to watch the excitement after hearing that they were going to compete with the Japanese. The circular arena was already surrounded by people on three levels inside and three outside.
Gong Baosen, Li Cunyi and several other prestigious boxers from Northeastern martial arts formed a luxurious team of judges and judges.
Gong Baosen briefly said a few words of encouragement, and then announced the start of the ring selection.
After all, they were only young disciples under the age of eighteen. Qin Hao took a look and found that their kung fu was not very solid, and some were knocked out in just two strokes.
However, it does not mean that these young disciples are useless. At least Qin Hao has seen many small boxing styles that he has never seen before. Among them, the one that impressed him the most was a young disciple of Yuan Gongquan. After he came on stage, he went directly to the ring.
When he fell down, his opponent was at a loss as to what to do, so he just relied on his ground fighting skills to defeat him.
This is a bit like free fighting. Although it doesn't look very elegant, it is very practical, at least in the ring.
As for the most dazzling one in the arena, it has to be Ma San.
Among his peers, Ma San's Xingyiquan skills are outstanding. Coupled with the boxing method Qin Hao taught him a few days ago, few can withstand three punches from him.
After fighting all the way in the ring, Ma San got the nickname "Shenquan San".
As for Qin Hao, when he first came on stage, many people thought he was here to make a joke. However, as Qin Hao won consecutive battles and won the top three, everyone present was shocked.
Among them was Gong Baosen. Only then did he realize the purpose of senior brother Li Cunyi sending this disciple to fight, and he couldn't help but clasp his hands.
"Elder brother, thank you very much."
Li Cunyi shook his head lightly: "We won't talk about it if we meet outsiders. Let's talk about it after we defeat the Japanese."
.......
On the other side, the Black Dragon Club is also selecting young warriors for the arena competition, but there are only two places for the selection.
Tanarata smiled and said to a young man wearing a samurai uniform next to him: "Funakoshi-kun, these are the most outstanding young samurai of the Black Dragon Society. What do you think?"
Funakoshi Sukeji said proudly: "They are all a bunch of useless garbage."
His words immediately aroused dissatisfaction among the young samurai. They had already complained about one less quota. Seeing that this "backdoor" man dared to talk nonsense here, they all looked at him angrily. If it weren't for Japan's strict hierarchy, they would
He had already cursed loudly.
Tanarata looked at Funakoshi Sukeji with a half-smile: "Funakoshi-kun is the eldest son of Mr. Funakoshi Gichin. He must have extraordinary attainments in karate. If you have time, can you give some advice to us young samurai?"
Funakoshi Sukeji stood up, walked to the center of the ring impatiently, and said to the four people who were fighting in pairs: "You all come together."
"Arrogant!"
"asshole!"
The four young samurai couldn't bear it anymore and rushed towards Funakoshi Sukeji.
However, Funakoshi fired two punches like lightning and knocked away the two people who were rushing forward. Then he took a half step back to avoid the attack of the other two people, and hit them in the stomach with two more punches. In an instant,
Knocked the two to the ground.
Everyone was shocked by his skill, and all the young samurai present fell to the ground and breathed a sigh of relief. The eyes that looked at Funakoshi Sukeji no longer had the anger before, but all turned into awe.
After being distracted for a moment, Tanarata clapped and laughed: "As expected of Mr. Funakoshi Yoshizumi's eldest son, the competition in the ring three days later will definitely let the Chinese people know what real martial arts is!"
Funakoshi Sukeji put on his coat again and said impatiently: "After helping you win the ring, I want to compete with the real fighters here. This is my training!"
"Don't worry Funakoshi-kun, I will help you make arrangements." Tanarata said with a smile.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed. During these three days, both China and Japan carried out grand publicity for this arena match.
The Black Dragon Society wants to use this to undermine the confidence of the Chinese people, so naturally the more people should know about this matter, the better.
On the Chinese side, the publicity was completely spontaneous among the people. Some people heard about such a competition through their neighbors, while others heard about it from teahouses and other places.
In fact, the scope of communication was relatively limited at the beginning, but until newspapers reported it, many people in Fengtian came to cheer for their own people.
Wuguan Street is unprecedentedly lively. Among the noisy crowds, there are people selling melon seeds, delivering tea, and selling cigarettes and corn from time to time.
Even in the coldest month of winter, it still cannot stop the enthusiasm of people in Fengtian to watch the game.
"Do you think we can win this group competition?"
"Nonsense, that's for sure. We have so many martial arts masters, how can we be afraid of a bunch of little Japanese?"
"But if we are so powerful, why do we always get bullied?"
"The reason for being bullied is because they have foreign guns and artillery. When it comes to boxing and kicking skills, let's make the little Japanese do it with one hand."
"That's right. How many years have we been practicing martial arts? The little Japan learned from us, but we still can't deal with them?"
