Chapter 19 Tiger and Crane Double Shape Fist (Please collect and read)

However, the Shan Min family did not always live apart from the Shan Ju people. When the Dragon Boat Festival, New Year's Day, and Mid-Autumn Festival were approaching, they would return to the Shan family.

Shan Juren said this, and Wei Tu guessed that it might be a letter from Shan Min, which would come back in the next few days.

…

Finish the apprenticeship ceremony.

Shan Wuju’s attitude towards Wei Tu’s teachings has not changed much. It is still the same as before, but when he speaks, his tone is gentler than before.

There is no urgency as before.

half a month later.

After Wei Tu's archery skills had greatly improved, Shan Wuju led Wei Tu into his living room.

Shan Wuju asked the maid in the house to retreat, then bent down and pried open a green brick under the altar table, and took out a seven-inch-long mahogany box from under the green brick.

“You have health-preserving skills at your disposal. It is enough to practice martial arts and improve your physical fitness.”

“But a warrior must not only have a good figure, but also know how to kill.”

Shan Wuju glanced at Wei Tu, his eyes showed emotion, and he said in a condensed voice.

In fact, he got a big advantage by taking Wei Tu as his disciple.

Wei Tu has achieved great success in health-preserving skills, and is already familiar with the thirty-two postures of "Turtle Breath Nourishing Qigong". Although these thirty-two postures are only basic postures, they are enough to build the foundation of his martial arts. .

That is to say.

Before he became his disciple, Wei Tu's martial arts foundation was already solid.

The only thing that is bad is the fighting method.

These fighting and fighting methods, when put into practice, are archery, boxing, swordsmanship...

“Lung stance is the foundation of archery and boxing. You have practiced archery this month and unintentionally learned a small part of my boxing.”

Shan Wuju said slowly.

After finishing speaking, Shan Wuju opened the mahogany box in his hand, took out a yellowed book, and handed it to Wei Tu.

“This is the boxing formula of "Tiger and Crane Double Shape Fist", and it is also the foundation of our martial arts. Only after practicing "Tiger and Crane Double Shape Fist" can we continue to the next step of sword practice."

"I don't have high demands on you. You can practice the tiger-shaped boxing in a month."

"At that time, I will teach you some sword techniques related to Tiger-shaped Fist. When it comes to the "Dance of the Knife" exam, if you practice well, you will be able to get the second grade in the Taoist exam with less effort."

"Level B in the road test?" Hearing this sentence, Wei Tu's eyes lit up slightly.

The military examination, like the civil examination, is divided into county examination, government examination, Tao examination and rural examination.

After passing the county and government examinations, one only has the status of a martial arts student. Being a martial arts student is not an honor, but the qualification to take the Taoist examination.

Only after passing the Taoist examination and achieving good results can one obtain the title of "Martial Scholar".

The provincial examination is the title of "Martial Arts Examination Person".

At this moment, Shan Wuju said that if he practiced some sword skills, he would have a chance to obtain the second grade of "Dancing with Swordsman" in the Taoist Examination.

The grade B is really not low.

A candidate with a B grade in all subjects in the Taoist examination, and a lower level candidate in the current martial arts examination, can still win the title of a martial arts scholar.

"Thank you, Master." Wei Tu looked grateful, took the yellowed book with both hands, and bowed deeply to Shan Wuju.

“Go and practice.”

Shan Wuju smiled happily, patted Wei Tu on the shoulder, waved his hand, and signaled Wei Tu to leave.

“Master, wait a moment.”

“There is one more thing that I don’t quite understand.”

Wei Tu suddenly thought of something when he walked to the door. He paused, hesitated for a moment, turned around, bowed to Shan Wu again, and said. "What's the matter?" Shan Wuju looked surprised when he saw Wei Tu acting like this.

Having been together for several months, he already had a good understanding of Wei Tu's character. He knew that Wei Tu, an apprentice, was very polite and even a little respectful.

He used the vegetable oil for the oil lamp in the wing very sparingly, as well as paper and ink. When he ran out, he didn't ask the maid to ask for it, but went to the town to buy it at his own expense.

It would be wrong to say that Wei Tu didn't have a close relationship with him... When encountering difficulties in military strategies or riding and shooting, Wei Tu would always come to him frequently to consult his master without hesitation.

The maid in the house refueled the lamps and replenished the paper and ink in the wing, but she did not refuse.

Later, Shan Wuju figured out the reason why Wei Tu acted like this. It was because he had been a poor man for a long time and knew how to behave. He knew that if he did this, he would not be looked down upon by others.

At this moment, he had just handed the boxing book to Wei Tu. It stands to reason that this apprentice with a more respectful personality would not turn around and ask questions, but would silently study the boxing manual and practice the pile skills.

“Master, do you know the state of sensing qi? Disciple... read the preface of "Turtle Breath Nourishing Qi Gong", it mentioned..."

At this time, Wei Tu expressed the doubts he had accumulated in his heart for a long time.

After becoming a disciple of Shan Wuju, he originally thought that Shan Wuju would mention the "state of feeling qi" in his daily teachings.

Unexpectedly, several months have passed and he has never heard the words "Qi Qi Jing" from Shan Juren.

“The state of feeling Qi?”

Shan Wuju was startled when he heard this. He didn't expect that what Wei Tu asked was actually related to this.

He thought about it for a while, then carefully considered his words and said: "Martial arts practice can be divided into internal and external aspects, that is, the difference between internal true skills and external skills."

“The state of sensing qi is the first small state of cultivation of the true inner skill.”

"Is this just the first small level of the inner family's true skills?" When Wei Tu heard this, he felt a lot lonely.

He has been practicing health-preserving skills for so long. According to the instructions of the "late bloomer" destiny, he has to practice "nine times a day" before he can enter the state of feeling Qi after five years.

But this is only the first small realm of inner qi cultivation.

It is so difficult to feel the Qi state.

The next realm...isn't it even more difficult to practice?

"There's no need to belittle yourself." Shan Wuju seemed to understand Wei Tu's thoughts, shook his head and said: "Your health-preserving Kung Fu booklet talks about ways to develop internal strength from the outside to the inside. It does not mean that external Kung Fu is It’s under the internal martial arts.”

“On the contrary, the strong internal force developed by the external martial arts masters, in terms of power, is better than ten strands of the internal force produced by the internal martial arts!”

Hear this.

Wei Tu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He also secretly cursed himself for being stupid for not thinking of this.

Health-preserving Kung Fu only has Zhuang Gong, but there is no legendary Nei Jia Zhen Gong that transfers the internal force of the meridians and widens the meridians.

At first glance, it is clear that he is not an internal expert.

“In addition, generally speaking, internal martial arts masters are much weaker than external martial arts masters.”

“A martial artist who practices internal martial arts in meditation for decades is not as powerful as a martial arts practitioner who practices external martial arts who have hammered his body for several years.”

“Otherwise, all the martial arts masters in the world will be internal martial arts masters.”

“They also won the first place in martial arts.”

Single martial arts examination and Taoism.

"But if you can enter the Qi Sensing Realm, it's good to train both internally and externally." Shan Wuju pondered for a while and said: "Because of the physical training in the early years, external martial arts practitioners are very brave and fight fiercely, so they are prone to loss of Qi and blood, and suffer hidden injuries. , if you can become an internal martial arts master, you can use your internal strength to heal your injuries..."

"The "Tiger and Crane Double Shape Fist" I gave you is the same as your health-preserving skills. As long as you practice it for a long time, you will have the opportunity to develop your internal strength from the outside and inside, and enter the state of feeling Qi."
