Kung Fu Way: Point of No End

Chapter 19 Hate the Unrighteous Way, Survive with Hope

"On July 31st, Coach Odley left. Although I have mastered the method of learning shaping, I can't continue practicing Kung Fu. Fortunately, I have Uncle Blind. His massage techniques are very useful for my practice. In terms of massage alone, his attainments are much deeper than Coach Odley's. After all, he has a specialization in surgery. If I want to continue to improve in the future, I must need better resources and a coach similar to Odley. Minglun Martial Arts School can indeed help me, but playing professional tournaments and becoming a professional fighter is the biggest crossroads in my life. I must be cautious. I don’t want to think about it so much for the time being. I will focus on it in the past two months. Improve, learn more knowledge, there are many strange people here, each has unique skills, I try to learn as much as possible to dig out some things that will benefit people for life."

"After studying here for a month, my outlook on life and values ​​have all changed. Everyone has a martial arts dream in their hearts and aspires to become a master. But I knew this was impossible before. Flying over the wall in martial arts novels is a violation Physical principles, such as internal strength and true qi, are all virtual in film and television. I have come into contact with real martial arts here, and found that there are indeed many magical places, but they are also within the scope of science. The adjustment of human psychological quality and mental state Coupled with scientific training methods and paying attention to the success or failure of details, it can generate power that is difficult for ordinary people to understand. Take plank support as an example, those students who play games all day can hardly support for 30 seconds, while professional athletes, Special forces can support for several hours."

"July has passed, and this time I came to the martial arts school with my family on my back. This choice is so right. If I have been studying and attending cram schools, where can I get in touch with such a wonderful world? For people's physical fitness, There is a huge difference between people who exercise every day and those who don’t. There is also a huge difference between athletes who have mastered the core training methods and those who train indiscriminately. I am very fortunate to have met Coach Odley. There is still a month to go, and I am looking forward to it. There will be something new."

Su Jie wrote a lot in his diary today. This is a monthly summary, to see what achievements he has made this month, whether he has wasted his time, and then make plans for the next month.

This is also one of his habits.

August 1st.

He got up as usual. At 3 o'clock in the morning, I do joint exercises to get hot all over my body, and then exercise various physical fitness, such as running, jumping, push-ups and other strength training, and then I carry a hoe and dig soil in the wasteland outside the school. I still want to figure out how to use this trick. .

Originally, he was going to accept Odeli's volleyball at this time. Now there is no Odley, so I can only exercise by myself, and go to Uncle Blind for a free massage at night.

From Uncle Blind, he saw the skill of freely retracting and releasing strength, and the keenness to find the dead angle of fighting. At the same time, he remembered the skill of using a sledgehammer to hit the fly on the glass. Now when digging the ground with the hoe in his hand, he also thinks carefully, making his posture of digging the ground more light and steady.

Like Mi Fu, he didn't write on five taels of silver paper, but pondered over and over again.

Hi!

His hoe rises and falls, sometimes in a straight line, sometimes in a zigzag. Gradually, he felt that the heavy hoe was light and light in his hands, and he could accurately land on a certain point with each stroke. He seemed to be able to control how many inches he penetrated into the soil during a dig.

"My kung fu has improved." He was overjoyed.

"good."

Just then, a voice came from behind him.

He hurriedly turned his head and saw a figure, it was the coach Gu Yang.

"Coach, why are you here?" Su Jie quickly put away the hoe, and when he put it away, he unconsciously calmed down like a mountain.

"This move of yours can be considered to have acquired the essence." Gu Yang nodded.

"Is there anything else I need to improve?" Su Jie seized the opportunity to ask.

"Posture, strength, and even spirit, all of which are full of samadhi." Gu Yang said: "You have obviously been taught by an expert, and the shape is perfect. The only thing you lack now is practice.

A lot of practice, imprinting the changes of this move into the soul and bones, and finally becoming one's own instinct, only in this way can it be considered a success. However, it is generally not ten or eight years, and this is simply impossible. "

"I will take this move as a skill for lifelong practice." Su Jie was not shocked by the fact that he had practiced one move for ten or eight years. The more he practiced, the more he felt the mystery of this move, and there were new things in every day's practice.

"It seems that you really understand it. From the bottom of your heart, you are a real person without exaggeration. This is a deep and stable first-class talent." Gu Yang sighed: "Actually, I have discovered you a long time ago, but you are just a short-term study class." It's just a member, we met by chance, there is no fate. But Nie Shuang communicated with me, and I came to observe you this morning, and it really is extraordinary."

"Coach, your understanding of this trick is much deeper than mine. I still hope to understand it more deeply." Su Jie knew that no matter where he was, good students could always be favored. In fact, in school, he is a good student, both the teacher and the principal think highly of him, which makes him like a fish in water in school. Now it's the same in the study class of Minglun Martial Arts School.

Su Jie understood this truth very early on. To be valued, it is actually very simple. If you study hard and get good grades, you can "do whatever you want".

Many students complain all day long, saying that they are discriminated against by their classmates and targeted by their teachers. The root cause is that they do not study hard.

Some students know that they must study hard, but they feel dizzy when they read a book, and they feel refreshed when they play games or play around.

And Su Jie is precisely the person who can do this, so he can stand out and achieve some small achievements.

"As I said just now, your movement, strength, and even artistic conception are all in place, and all that remains is to practice hard and practice hard. Of course, if you elevate this technique to something philosophical, It is very useful for your practice." Gu Yang seems to have the patience to teach Su Jie, in the past, he didn't bother to talk much at all, he just told you a movement, and then asked you to practice and figure it out.

"What philosophical stuff?" Su Jie asked hastily.

"What is the ultimate goal of martial arts?" Gu Yang asked back.

"Survival." Su Jie was also thinking about this question over and over again.

"That's right, it's survival. In the early days, martial arts were invented for hunting and fighting beasts. Then humans dominated the world, and the role of martial arts is to fight and kill people. This is also for survival. But I taught you to dig Earth-turning martial arts is actually a kind of survival." Gu Yang said with a compassionate look: "Actually, in ancient times and even modern times, for ninety-nine out of ten people, farming, digging, and doing farm work were the daily must-haves. Therefore, integrating martial arts into farm work is the most common and common survival skill that can be used every day. Do you know what is the most powerful martial art among traditional martial arts?"

Su Jie shook his head.

"Among the traditional martial arts, there are hundreds of boxing techniques, and I cannot describe them all in detail. However, there is a kind of martial art called 'the most ruthless and poisonous' in the martial arts, called 'Xin Xin Ba'. This martial art is also called ' Hoe the head'. The monks of the past dynasties farmed by themselves and saw the suffering of the farmers, so they added various concepts such as Zen qigong, martial arts energy, yoga chakras, and things that are beneficial to the body into the farm work. , and finally formed this move. This move is human instinct, and there are various animal predation skills in it, and there are many fusions of yoga and qigong, which can be called the mother of all fists." Gu Yang said: " If I read it right, many of your martial arts skills, even mind coordination, were taught by foreigners. When you practice, you are hating, hating the sky without a handle, hating the ground without a ring, and not staining the enemy's blood when you fight Swear not to pay back. This is not a mistake. At the beginning, it is indeed necessary to train like this to be able to quickly develop kung fu. To a certain extent, this is a skill of hard training. Hard training is not only physical, but also spiritual. It's more important. When practicing martial arts, if you have hatred, cruelty, poison, and cruelty in your heart, the effect will be extremely fast. But this is not really superior kung fu."

"Then how can it be regarded as superior kung fu? Also, how do you know that foreigners taught me?" Su Jie was extremely shocked.

Although he knew that Gu Yang was a formidable expert, but now he felt that he still underestimated him.

"True superior kung fu is definitely not narrow and extreme, but broad-minded and lofty." Gu Yang stared at the hoe and the land: "When practicing this move, you need to understand the true origin of this move. Since ancient times Since then, farmers have worked hard to cultivate, earn their own living, dig the land, and sprinkle the seeds. In autumn, they will harvest thousands of grains. This represents joy and hope. All the hard work is worth it. This is survival Survival by war, fighting, and killing is definitely not real kung fu. You are still young, so you may not understand this truth. But I am afraid that you will go astray and go astray. When you practice this trick, you must be grateful and hopeful , I am grateful to the earth for raising you, and I hope that I can exchange my labor for harvest and support myself. The same trick can not only kill people and go into evil ways, but also plant and take dignified paths. Only one person has a broad mind, like mountains and seas, to climb to the top.”

"When practicing, feel grateful and hopeful, feel the hard work and suffering of farmers for thousands of years, but live with enthusiasm, that kind of steadfastness and satisfaction." Su Jie suddenly remembered that Odeli was in the Before leaving, I gave him a copy of "Book of Changes", letting him understand the principles of life from it.

"Your various exercises are very precise and standard, and there is no mistake at all. I just saw you doing that kind of aerobic gymnastics, similar to Tai Chi, but mixed with Western standardized scientific musculoskeletal concepts, I know how to train you They are top foreign coaches." Gu Yang answered Su Jie's second question, which stemmed from his careful observation.

"Coach Gu Yang, are you also here to persuade me to fight professionally?" Su Jie asked.

"As I said, martial arts is for survival, and it's also a way of survival." Gu Yang said, "The actual combat martial arts of fighting and killing are no longer suitable for modern survival. In modern times, if you rely on martial arts to survive, there are only two ways to survive." One is to fight professional fighting games and become a fighting superstar, and the other is to become an action actor and become a kung fu superstar. Both paths are fine. Of course, if you have a better way of life, you can also do it without relying on martial arts. It’s up to you to choose your own path in life. Many people say that flamboyant fists and embroidered legs are useless, but in fact the current society depends on the aesthetics of embroidered legs to survive better.”
