Following Luo Cheng through the corridors of the huge manor, he soon saw a large courtyard with a wall of more than four meters and built entirely with blue bricks.
There are one post every three steps and one sentry every five steps around, and the guards are very tight.
It's an important place at first glance.
Arriving at the door, the guard opened the closed door after seeing Luo Cheng.
Follow and walk in.
A vast house with an area of three to four thousand square meters appeared in front of him.
The whole courtyard is paved with thick and solid bluestone. In the middle is a one-meter-high arena, surrounded by eighteen kinds of weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds. On the other side are stone grinders, plum blossom stakes and other equipment for beating the body.
There are rows of neat stone houses on the north and south sides of the large courtyard. There is no courtyard. From the outside, it only covers an area of about 30 square meters.
Ten in a row, eight columns in total.
There are one hundred and sixty rooms on both sides combined.
There are several small buildings in the corner, whose purpose is unknown.
The moment Xu Rui entered the door, a loud shout suddenly came.
Subconsciously looking in the direction of the sound, a group of shirtless strong men, led by a half-century old man, were punching and kicking, apparently practicing martial arts.
There was a hint of fire in his eyes.
After experiencing the dangers of the mass graves, he became interested in all practices that could enhance his own strength, including martial arts.
Luo Cheng took him to the group of stone houses on the left and found a room in the second row.
On the outside of the door is written, ‘A Thirteen’.
Push the door and go in. In the 278-square-meter space, there is a bed, a desk, two low stools, and nothing else.
"This is your room. If nothing happens in the future, you will live here."
"yes."
Although simple, when he just graduated from college and lived in an urban village, the conditions were not much better than here.
"I'll have the quilt brought to you later. Here's the room key. Keep it."
Take this brass key that looks unique and ancient.
"If it is lost, please report it in time for replacement."
Xu Rui nodded.
"Put down your bow and follow me."
He took him outside and walked straight towards the crowd practicing martial arts.
"Master Chen?"
The tone is respectful.
The old man who was leading everyone to practice martial arts turned around, glanced at Luo Cheng, and then turned to Xu Rui.
After examining it, he nodded.
"Let him in."
"Then I'm sorry to trouble you."
Turned.
"You stand in the crowd and practice with everyone."
Xu Rui just arrived, so he naturally followed other people's arrangements.
I came to the back of the crowd and started practicing.
He has absolutely no foundation in Chinese martial arts, so he will certainly make mistakes and make fools of himself when he practices.
The old man saw this and frowned.
It is the most difficult to teach such an old person with no martial arts foundation. However, since he promised to teach the young master, he will teach it carefully.
Cough.
"The set of Meishan Boxing you are practicing is inherited from the boxing method created by Song Tianxiang, the "Master of Meishan Cave" in the Song Dynasty. It includes three parts: pile method, training method and fighting method. It is also called 'Meishan Martial Arts'."
"The boxing technique combines hardness and softness, and contains five-shaped changes; after it is practiced, it can be said that 'the top is covered with snowflakes, thunder and fire burn the sky; the bottom is to beat the ancient trees to uproot their roots, and the dragon explores the sea.'"
Before he finished speaking, a wooden stick as thick as an egg had been hit hard on the leg of a young man in gray robe.
"How many times have I told you that you should use the nine-point walking dragon step when shooting arrows? You must grasp the mud with your ten toes when bowing forward and backward."
The young man who was beaten bared his teeth and hurriedly corrected his actions.
Snapped!
"This trick, 'Triple Waves of Plum Blossoms', focuses on the word 'die'. Do you mean 'die'?"
The beating of sticks and the old man's scolding sounded from time to time.
Xu Rui was uneasy, afraid of being beaten.
The fear of being dominated by the teacher's stick in my heart seems to have returned to my junior high school days.
But until the end, no stick fell on him.
In this case, he was a little disappointed.
Anyone who has gone to school knows that when the teacher doesn't care about you, he basically gives up.
Fortunately, he was not disappointed for long.
"Others are free to practice, and the new guy comes over."
Xu Rui knew that the other party was calling him and walked over quickly.
"follow me."
Take him to the next corner.
"Have you never practiced martial arts before?"
"I haven't practiced."
"In that case, let's start from the simplest one, Zhan Zhuang."
The old man doesn't talk nonsense either.
"Meishan Quan emphasizes pile skills the most. There is a saying that if you practice boxing without practicing kung fu, you will be in vain. You must remember that you can never neglect the practice of pile skills at any time."
"Disciple, please remember this."
Seeing his respectful attitude, the old man's face also relaxed a little.
"Meishan Zhuang Kung Fu consists of three types: sitting, nailing, and arrowing. Today I will teach you how to sit on the pile first."
"The Meishan sitting pile is divided into three plates: the upper, middle and lower plates, and its posture is shaped like a 'three-point plum blossom'."
The old man said and showed Xu Rui himself.
"Come and try."
Xu Rui imitated and stood up.
"No, spread your feet further and squat with both legs."
When the posture was correct, the old man touched his palms, thighs, and back all over.
"It's wrong, the strength is wrong, the back is straight, the shoulders are slumped and the elbows are slumped."
Under the guidance of the old man, Xu Rui quickly stood upright.
At the moment of success, an indescribable feeling surged into my heart.
The whole body became warm, as if soaked in warm water, countless bubbles seemed to be steaming in the bones, the blood flowed rapidly, and strength slowly grew.
"Remember this feeling, and when you sit in the pile in the future, if you find this feeling, the pile method will be correct."
There was a hint of surprise in his tone.
He has been practicing Meishan Kung Fu for decades, and has taught as many as eight hundred disciples, ranging from one thousand to eight hundred. There are only two disciples who are able to master this kind of martial arts with astonishing understanding.
The one in front of me is the third one.
"Is he a martial arts prodigy?"
The old man was instantly interested.
His lifelong ambition is to spread Meishan Boxing and make it a major boxing style that affects the whole country like Eight Levels, Xingyi, and Tai Chi. To achieve this, excellent disciples are indispensable.
Thinking of this, there was a touch of love in Xu Rui's eyes.
What happened next surprised him even more.
For those who have never practiced martial arts before, the first time they sit on the pile, they can last at most half a quarter of an hour.
But two quarters of an hour later, the opponent's body was still stable, with no sign of shaking at all.
Although my breathing became a little short, I could still hold on.
Obviously, Xu Rui has laid a good physical foundation through fitness. Coupled with the blessing of marrow cleansing points, his body is no worse than those who have practiced martial arts for many years.
"It seems that he is even better than I thought." The old man was a little surprised.
The foundation of martial arts is the training of the physical body. With a good body, practicing martial arts will often get twice the result with half the effort.
Another quarter of an hour later, Xu Rui had sweat on his forehead and there was a struggle on his face.
However, the body is still relatively stable.
"Okay, get up."
Xu Rui took a long breath and slowly stood up straight.
Just now, he almost couldn't help but add a few marrow washing points to relieve his body's fatigue.
"It's not easy to stand still for a long time for the first time."
"yes."
"Have you ever beaten your body before?"
nodded.
"When I was in college, foreign fitness was popular in school, and I often followed it."
