Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 28 Brother, Robbery

Next, Fang Yan wanted to complete the remaining four moves, but Mr. Lu said that there was no need.

Fang Yan originally wanted to say that he didn't use his full strength, but after thinking about it, he gave up. He had to practice anyway and could just fight again when the time came. He spent the rest of his time practicing under the guidance of Mr. Lu.

Although it was guidance, it was actually mainly Mr. Lu who was explaining some precautions.

These are all based on Mr. Lu's experience. For example, he particularly emphasized that if you encounter an opponent with a knife, you have to run away. Fighting with bare hands is something you should only do when you are forced to do so.

Fangyan had heard a lot of these warnings in his previous life. Knowing kung fu does not make you invincible. When someone takes out a weapon, you must not try to be brave if you can avoid its attack.

There have even been experiments done by professional Sanda athletes who found that if an ordinary person held a weapon and he was unarmed, he would not be able to defeat the opponent in one move and would inevitably be stabbed.

These are all lessons learned from blood. As the saying goes: No matter how good your kung fu skills are, you are still afraid of a kitchen knife.

Mr. Lu said this because he was afraid that his disciple Fang Yan would learn kung fu and would take action when faced with difficulties, and then something unexpected would happen. By then, it would be too late for him to regret.

He had done this kind of thing before when he was young. Fortunately, others did not kill him immediately, otherwise we would not see him now.

When it was almost time to get off work, Fang Yan was just about to say goodbye to Mr. Lu when someone came.

A middle-aged man in his thirties, carrying two turtles and two bottles of wine, asked about the injury on Mr. Lu's hand with concern as soon as he entered the door.

After Mr. Lu introduced him, Fang Yan realized that this was Mr. Lu’s second apprentice Ding Jian, who is now the coach of the BJ Amateur Sports School’s martial arts team.

Speaking of this amateur sports school's martial arts team, most people may not know about it, but it was later renamed Shichahai Sports School. Many celebrities emerged from the martial arts team, such as Li Lianjie, Zhao Wenzhuo, Zhen Zaidan, and Wu Jing, who are all well-known in later generations.

After Ding Jian carefully examined the injury on Mr. Lu's hand, he began to blame Mr. Lu for not telling them, his disciples, about such a big thing. He heard about it from other people.

He immediately challenged the mantis boxing guy who had injured Mr. Lu to a duel.

I won't stop until I break one of the other person's arms.

Old Master Lu waved his hand and said that he would handle the matter himself and did not want to bring the grudge to the next generation. However, Ding Jian did not think so. He believed that as an apprentice, he did not even do anything when his master was beaten, and he had lived in vain for so many years.

Neither of them could convince the other, and the situation remained deadlocked.

Mr. Lu had no choice but to change the subject and introduced his new disciple to his second disciple. After briefly explaining Fang Yan's situation, Ding Jian's attention was diverted.

"Second Brother!" Fang Yan bowed and saluted Ding Jian.

Ding Jian smiled and waved his hand and said:
"Hey, don't call me Second Senior Brother. I don't like it. Call me Senior Brother Ding, or Second Brother."

"Second brother." Fangyan was quite willing to follow suit.

Ding Jian said to Fang Yan:

"The teacher just said that you are very talented. He rarely praises people. Stand in the three-body pose for my second brother to see."

Fangyan didn't say much and stood up immediately.

After seeing Fang Yan's Zhuang Gong, Ding Jian was stunned, and then said:

"Hiss...it looks like he has a solid foundation. His movements are accurate to the point. It's just as the teacher said."

"Fangyan, show him a few more moves and see." Lu Donghua was very satisfied with Ding Jian's reaction and said to Fangyan.

Fangyan nodded, and then performed all five basic Xingyiquan moves, namely, chop, drill, collapse, cannon, and horizontal. Ding Jian's eyes widened.

Lu Donghua just said that although Fang Yan has been standing in the stance for more than ten years, he just learned the boxing today. He can perform like this on the first day. If this is not genius, what is?
Ding Jian thought about it and asked Lu Donghua if he wanted Fang Yan to fight that mantis boxing guy?

Lu Donghua shook his head, indicating that Fangyan only knew the basics now. He had not taught Fangyan the actual Twelve Forms Boxing at all. He had to wait until Fangyan had mastered the basics.

The so-called degree of heat refers to the degree to which the force can penetrate into the internal organs and injure people.

And even if Fangyan was really an extremely talented person and reached that step quickly, he didn't plan to let him fight.

He has to take responsibility for what he did back then.

Anyway, the old man went around in circles and still insisted on not letting others take action.

Ding Jian had no way to persuade the old man, so he had to say goodbye. When he left, Old Man Lu also reminded him not to tell his other fellow disciples.

Fangyan found that the old man seemed easy to talk to, but he was actually a stubborn person.

Seeing that it was almost time, he said goodbye to Mr. Lu, then went out, took the bus and went back home.

When he got home, Fang Yan discovered that his father had already arrived home and was picking vegetables in the living room while listening to the news on the radio. The content was about some of the recent content of the Beijing meeting.

Fangyan heard a lot of new news.

At the same time, a conference is about to be held in August, and many people have already entered Beijing.

Hearing this, Fang Yan suddenly had an idea in his mind. If he guessed correctly, the resumption of the national college entrance examination should have been approved at the conference.

After notifying the whole country, we will start accepting applications for the college entrance examination.

If the period articles I read before were correct, then this year there were 570 million young people applying for the exam across the country, and finally 27.3 were admitted.

There are quite a lot of big shots in the first batch of college entrance examinations, especially in Beijing. After these people got to know each other in college, they have incredible connections, so Fangyan is very concerned about the college entrance examination.

Thinking of this, he looked at his father who was picking vegetables and asked:
"Dad, if you were to write the college entrance examination papers, how would you write them?"

Fang Zhenhua was slightly stunned when he heard his son's question, then thought seriously for a while before saying:
"If it were me... I would definitely not set a very difficult question. After all, the knowledge has been lost for many years. If the questions are too difficult at this time, the examinees will not be able to pass the test."

After that he asked:
"What? I heard about the college entrance examination again today."

Fangyan shook his head, pointed to the radio at home and said:
"No, I just heard on the radio that there will be a meeting, and I think the news will be released next month, but I don't know if it's correct."

Fang Zhenhua nodded after hearing this:
"What you said does make some sense. If the college entrance examination is to be resumed, it will probably be after this conference."

"If the college entrance examination can really be restored, you and your brothers will be blessed. At least your future jobs will be much better than now."

When Fangyan heard this, he was impressed by his father's confidence, as if all four of them, siblings, could pass the exam. With a total of 570 million students, only 27.3 were admitted. He estimated that the competition must be fierce. It was one thing if he had cheats, but others might not be so sure of passing.

But then again, my dad has already sent all the textbooks in advance, and everything that needs to be done has been done. The college entrance examination will ultimately depend on the individual.

Fang Yan and his father were chatting when his mother He Huiru also came back. After coming back, they both noticed that she looked a little unwell and looked frightened. After asking, they found out that on the way back today, when they were almost home, they encountered a few young people robbing money. Fortunately, the conductor and a veteran intervened and saved everyone's wallets.

However, two people were also injured. Fortunately, my mother had first aid tools in her bag. The driver then drove the car directly to BJ Medical College. They are probably still receiving first aid now.
