Winter turns to spring, time flies, three years pass in the blink of an eye, and we enter the 1970s.
In the past three years, many major events have continued to occur across the country.
In addition to the "one against three counter-revolutionaries" (combat counter-revolutionary and sabotage activities, combat corruption, theft, and speculative activities), "learn from Dazhai in agriculture", support the construction of the "third front", and "criticize the revisionist style" (known within the party as "criticize Chen and rectify the style") ", the great leader himself ended the political life of his secretary), the "September 13" incident (Lin defected to the Soviet Union and crashed) and political activities such as criticizing the "uselessness of reading" theory, there are also political activities such as my country's first The artificial satellite was launched into the sky, the Chengdu-Kunming Railway was opened to traffic, the "Golden Jade Clothes" and the female body of the Western Han Dynasty in Mawangdui were unearthed one after another, our country restored all its legal rights in the United Nations, Kissinger secretly visited China, the Sino-US Joint Communique was issued, and Sino-Japanese diplomatic relations Current affairs changes such as normalization.
In fact, there are many things here that could be regarded as positive signals that our country's society as a whole is about to change its direction. But unfortunately, ordinary people have not noticed the special changes that have taken place in certain fields, and even started from such changes.
Although the positive significance it has produced, most people's attention is still only focused on political activities.
The only difference from the past is that since various "movements" have been emerging for quite a long time, it is still unclear when they will end. In addition, the initial enthusiasm for participation of the general public has faded, so many people have reached the spiritual point.
The critical point of exhaustion, feeling extremely tired. Especially the shocking "September 13" incident, which caused great harm to the soul of almost every Chinese. These also formed a resonance effect, causing the society to "see through the world of mortals".
"The atmosphere is getting heavier and heavier.
For example, "Quotations never leave your hand, long live your lips never leave your mouth, you say good things to your face, but you do evil things behind your back" began to become popular among the people during this period. Later, this phrase was also included in the Party Congress report and became an official term. The atmosphere of suspicion and condemnation not only
It was frequently seen in the newspapers and permeated among the people. So everyone fell silent together, and a group of prophets began to silently think about the rights and wrongs of recent years.
If we want to use an appropriate word to describe this social state at that time, it can be roughly summarized as a "quasi-movement period."
Similar to the subtle changes that have begun to take place in the spiritual level of the Chinese people, although Master Yuye and his disciples are still the same on the surface, through these three years of getting along, each of them has unconsciously changed into something different in essence.
changed to varying degrees.
As a Jade Master, it is mainly reflected psychologically. He is probably really old, and has been lonely for a long time in his later years, so even he himself has to admit that he has found a lot of things in the days he spent with his two children.
pleasure.
So when he first started to recruit apprentices, his unforgiving "passivity" and "resistance" had long since disappeared, replaced by how to teach all his skills as quickly as possible, and planned to take advantage of the two children. Determined.
We cannot let these two apprentices be so competitive as to "pay off their wrestling debts" (jargon, referring to the person who lost their master after defeating him in the wrestling ring) in the future.
As for two children, the changes are more reflected in the improvement in physical fitness and wrestling skills.
There is no doubt that Chen Liquan is the most down-to-earth person. Under the careful guidance of Master Yu, he can practice as he should, so he has benefited the most and made the fastest progress.
As for Hong Yanwu, although the problem of working as a foreigner has not been eradicated, but with the strict teacher Yu Ye watching closely, although he can be lazy after all, there is a limit. So in general, although he is not as solid as Chen Liquan, he can still
I also successfully completed the training of body bending, tendon stretching and "Pai Da Gong", and entered the next new stage of learning.
The so-called new stage here does not mean that Master Yu wants to teach the two children moves. But because the two children's bodies have already possessed some basic qualities, they will not be easily injured during training. In fact, they have entered another stage.
It is a more advanced stage of practicing basic skills, which can also be said to be the last hurdle before getting started. So naturally, a lot of new content has been added to their morning and evening homework.
For example, Yu Ye first taught two children the movements of "holding the big top", "iron bridge" and "somersault"
Although these three movements may seem like juggling and unnecessary, in fact they are to practice balance. You should also know what balance means to a wrestler. Therefore, these three movements are extremely necessary.
One of the basic skills.
In addition, Master Yu also taught them the five leg skills that must be practiced in wrestling: kicking, kicking, crossing, kneeling, and passing. He also taught them the four training methods of rinsing the waist, grinding the waist, fanning the waist, and bending back and forth.
Naturally, these training methods exercise the ability of the waist and legs, and they are also compulsory courses for beginners in the wrestling industry. Master Yu once specifically told them in the form of a martial proverb, "Remember, if you don't train your waist in wrestling, you will spend your whole life messing around.
, If you don’t train your legs in wrestling, your whole life will be in vain!”
In addition to these, Master Yu also taught them how to draw the hard bow, twist the stick, shake the big pole and kick the cypress stakes, which are the traditional training methods of the good fighting equipment.
First let’s talk about drawing a hard bow.
Bows include hard bows, crossbows, arrow bows, slingshots, double bows, etc. Each bow has a different drawing force and is divided into several strengths. It is traditionally called a force of nine pounds and twelve taels (about ten pounds), and a hard bow has eight or more strengths.
Ten strengths are equivalent to one stone. The iron tire bow passed down from Master Yu’s family is a one-stone bow with ten strengths. Since the Yu family entered Shanpu camp, almost everyone in the thirteen generations has used it. But now, it is the turn of this one
Two "small nests" are available.
Some people may think that this thing has nothing to do with wrestling. But the reason why Shanpu camp pays attention to this practice is not only because the bannermen have a tradition of practicing archery, but more importantly, it is also the most basic item in traditional strength training.
Only after you have practiced this can you continue to practice swordsmanship (big sword) and stone (stone lock).
The benefits of pulling a hard bow are irreplaceable. It can not only be used to practice support and pulling force, and experience the secret of bursting out strength. It can also be used to practice squatting, lunging, lying down, cross-legged, cantilever fork, etc.
Footwork. Even in the old days, in order to improve the quality of practitioners, bannermen often had to squat in a riding posture, raise their fists in the air, and listen to the bow master's numbers from one to ten before actually drawing the bow.
Training of the vocabulary "number bow code".
In fact, doing so is almost the same as practicing goose-stepping in the modern army. It can not only allow the practitioners to develop a strict "military airs", but also allow them to experience the rigor and solemnity of military training in the Eight Banners military camp. Therefore, the Qing Dynasty Emperor
When people deplore the dandy habits of the Banner people and reprimand them, they often make the comment that "even their actions are not like those of the Banner people." This is the same as the origin of the saying "The master of archery counts the numbers of his bows - one, five and ten."
Refers to the same thing.
Secondly, let’s talk about the big pole shaking. This actually evolved from the Mongolian horse pole roping and is a unique training method of the Mongolian Puhu in Shanpu Camp.
The big pole is three meters long and has a flexible texture. There are thirteen training methods: horizontal, pressing, shaking, pulling, holding, pulling, covering, writhing, horizontal, not, pulling, kicking and turning, which are called "Thirteen Rods"
.You can use this to improve special strength such as horizontal strength, grip strength, shaking strength, and pulling strength. Since Mr. Yu is a Mongolian, he is most familiar with this practice method, so naturally, he passed it on to his two children.
The third basic skill to talk about is twisting the stick.
Strictly speaking, this word is just a general term. Because it can be subdivided into Tuo Luo Bang, Xiao Bangzi, Da Bangzi and Teng Bangzi, the training methods and emphasis are very different.
There is a hole in the middle of the weight stick, and a thin rope is inserted inside to hang a weight. The weight can vary from person to person, usually three to five kilograms. During practice, you can use one hand with one hand, mainly focusing on finger strength and arm strength, and hold the weight with one or both hands.
Repeatedly twist and roll from bottom to top until your shoulders, arms, fingers, and wrists become sore and swollen.
The small stick is mainly used to train grip strength and arm strength. It can be practiced regularly without swelling the handle. In addition, it can also practice the explosive power of scratching the hands. The big stick is an excellent method for practicing horizontal strength and mainly trains the strength and vitality of the upper limbs. There is a saying in wrestling that "big stick"
The stick is horizontal, the small stick is twisted." This is what it means.
At the same time, since both kinds of sticks only require hardwood material, and the thickness and length can vary from person to person, Master Yu chose jujube wood rolling pins of different lengths for each of the two children as substitutes.
As for the rattan stick, it is also called the "Overlord Whip". It is similar to a big stick and consists of more than a dozen rattan sticks. The length and thickness are the same as the big stick. The difference between it and the big stick is that it essentially imitates the feeling of human bone dislocation.
.When practicing, you need to hold tightly with both hands to twist the cane stick.
In short, practicing twisting a stick is very practical. It can not only increase the defense and attack power of the hands, but also make it stable in catching. For example, when Emperor Jiaqing of the Qing Dynasty was suddenly assassinated by the Han army under the yellow flag Chengde within the palace confinement,
Even though all the guards were unable to stop him, the Mongol prince who risked his life to save him was still able to successfully capture Chengde by relying on his daily unremitting efforts to twist the stick.
However, because Cheng De had a skill that was far superior to that of the Mongolian prince, the brother-in-law of Emperor Jiaqing was seriously injured and disabled for life. And this skill was the kicking of cypress stakes mentioned below.
The practice of kicking cypress stakes is to bury a wooden stake as thick as a bowl deep into the ground, leaving a foot, five inches to two feet on the ground. During practice, you must kick hard, level kick, up kick, down kick, forward kick, and reverse kick.
Kicks, horizontal kicks, side kicks and other kicking methods are the most important way to practice leg skills and tripping.
It should be noted that kicking cypress stakes and twisting sticks are particularly important. Not only do beginners need to study hard and practice hard, but even after officially learning wrestling, they still need to practice every day. And no matter how high they reach in the future, kicking and twisting are also required.
Gotta practice.
Because these two equipment training methods actually basically represent the two most important foundations of wrestling. Without practicing to a very high level, it is impossible to learn wrestling directly. In other words, only by mastering them can you learn wrestling.
You can formally transfer wrestling. Otherwise, even if you learn the moves, your weaknesses will still be exposed in actual combat.
All in all, because Master Yu taught well, the apprentices also practiced diligently. In the past three years, the two children not only became stronger and stronger day by day, but also became taller and taller. Even their mental temperament was not the same as before.
It’s the same, to use the words of the old capital, it’s getting more and more stylish.
Especially when an accident happens and the two children react subconsciously and rely on their newly developed agility to help the adults in the family catch a flying plate or a bowl that hits the ground, they gain the support of their parents.
unanimous approval.
At this moment, the Hong and Chen families were all happy in their hearts. Hong Lucheng was sincerely grateful to Master Yu for his teachings, while Chen Deyuan was happy that his son had learned something real. Each of them thought that
There will be no worries in the future. As long as the children are well and the days can go on peacefully, they have no other extravagant wishes.
It's just that the word "destiny" represents surprise, and the reason why people are in awe of it is because when it appears, it is more likely to mean bad luck.
In the summer vacation of 1972, on an ordinary day, the Chen family suddenly suffered a sudden blow from "fate". Their mainstay, Chen Deyuan, died!
