Then, the old man said, "the second treasure of our emperor Taizu is Taizu's original weapon, Taizu Panlong stick."
Once upon a time, when Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty was a general in the Later Zhou Dynasty, Liu Dingguo, a general of a neighboring country, led an army to attack xilinchuan, an important border town.
At that time, the general guarding xilinchuan was the emperor Taizu. Before the battle, Liu Dingguo urged his horse forward, crossed the heavy and bright "golden back mountain chopping knife" in his hand, and haughtily roared: "Zhao Kuangyin, you don't get off the horse soon when you see our general!"
Zhao Kuangyin swung the big stick with eyebrows in his hand, pointed to Liu Dingguo and said with a smile: "it depends on my hand After hearing this, Liu Dingguo, without saying a word, waved a big knife and went straight to the top of emperor Taizu's head.
Emperor Taizu dodged to the right to avoid the knife.
As soon as Liu Dingguo saw that the emperor Taizu had dodged the sword, he twisted the handle and rubbed the horizontal knife to the emperor Taizu's waist.
Emperor Taizu put up his stick with both hands and stopped the knife.
In this way, Emperor Taizu and Liu Dingguo fought for more than 30 rounds without a draw.
However, Emperor Taizu was young and strong after all, and had excellent martial arts skills.
After more than 40 rounds of fighting, Emperor Taizu urged the horse to turn to the right side of Liu Dingguo and swung his big stick to fight Liu Dingguo.
With this stick, Emperor Taizu concentrated all his strength on the end of the stick, which was as powerful as Mount Tai.
Liu Dingguo couldn't dodge, so he quickly lifted the handle with both hands and put it up. With a click, the front end of the Qimei stick in emperor Taizu's hand was cut apart.
Emperor Taizu took a look and quickly took back the stick.
When Liu Dingguo saw that the long stick in the hand of emperor Taizu was broken, he took advantage of the situation to cut it.
Emperor Taizu flashed back and dodged. Then he pulled the reins of his horses and drove them back to his camp. He ordered them all to withdraw to the city.
Emperor Taizu returned to the city and sighed as he looked at his broken Qimei stick.
It turns out that this Qimei stick was given to him by monk Xingyan when Taizu was studying martial arts in Xuankong Temple of Qingxia mountain.
This Qimei staff is made of superior rosewood. It is hard and heavy. Emperor Taizu used it to defeat many valiant generals in several years of northern and southern battles. However, he didn't expect to discount this stick in today's battle. It's very heartbreaking.
Later, inspired by the people in the city, Emperor Taizu came to the blacksmith shop of Chenji at the entrance of the North Street and asked him to connect the long and short sticks together in flail style.
Emperor Taizu picked up the heavy stick and played with it a few times. He saw that the tip of the stick was shaking, whistling for wind, which was dazzling.
After watching emperor Taizu play this set of cudgel, blacksmith Chen asked curiously, "General Zhao, you see your weapon is like a stick, not a stick, like a whip, not a whip. What's your name?"
emperor Taizu looked at the stick in his hand and said to himself, "this stick is like a broken cudgel, like a broken cudgel, with a head and a tail. It's called 'Panlong cudgel'!"
This is the name of Panlong staff.
Since Taizu practiced the mental skill of xuanjue, his kung fu has increased rapidly. He has a solid foundation of Kung Fu, and with this unique weapon Panlong stick, his martial arts have greatly improved.
From then on, every time when facing the enemy, the staff technique was even more domineering, with few opponents.
The eight great masters of the Song Dynasty have made great contributions to our army.
