Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 314 Bajiquan, I want to go to Tiananmen Square (Monthly Ticket Plus)

Bajiquan is a famous martial art, and Fangyan was of course introduced to it from Xiao Li and his two roommates.

The name of Bajiquan comes from ancient geographical concepts. It is recorded in the Han Dynasty's "Huainanzi Zhuixingxun": "Between heaven and earth, there are nine states and eight poles."

The meaning of boxing is "the power can reach far away places in all directions".

Bajiquan is a short-fighting boxing style, and its movements generally pursue a style that is tough, simple, and swift.

In terms of martial arts techniques, it emphasizes inch-by-inch grabbing, and hard hitting and breaking.

The force of Bajiquan starts from the heels, moves through the waist, and passes through the fingertips, so it has great explosive power and is full of fighting characteristics.

Some people say that Bajiquan is an external martial art, while others say that Bajiquan is an internal martial art.

In fact, Bajiquan emphasizes the two breaths of "Heng and Ha". The two breaths of "Heng and Ha" are the embodiment of internal training, while Bajiquan's eight Vajra postures are the so-called external training.

It is a combination of internal and external strengths, using Qi to drive power and has strong explosive power.

The most well-known of these is Luotuan Bajiquan.

Represented by Huang Sihai, Li Shuwen, Han Huachen, Huo Dian Ge and others.

Among them, Li Shuwen was a martial arts prodigy in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. He was known as Li Shuwen, the master of fists and the magic gun.

His moves were brutal and ruthless, often resulting in death or injury. Many martial artists had lost their lives at his hands, so his reputation in the martial arts world was not very good. Even his good friend Sun Lutang described Bajiquan as an "evil skill".

When Sun Lutang fought in a duel, “every strike would result in blood being drawn”, but when Li Shuwen fought, “no mercy would be shown until blood was drawn”.

The fact that even Sun Lutang could complain about him shows how murderous he is.

In 1895, Yuan Shikai began to train his troops at a small station in the southern suburbs of Tianjin. He used various means and connections to win over martial arts masters, and hired Japanese karate masters and German military instructors to train his elite troops.

Li Shuwen's master Huang Sihai received a letter of appointment from Yuan Shikai. Because he was old, he specially recommended his disciple Li Shuwen to teach.

After Li Shuwen arrived at the barracks, Yuan Shikai and the instructors saw that he was plain-looking, thin and skinny, and carrying a big gun, and they mistakenly thought he was a servant or a servant of the big gun Huang Shihai.

When the guard martial arts instructor Ito Taro learned that Li Shuwen was the instructor replacing his master, he said to Li Shuwen with contempt, "You sick man of East Asia," and pointed downwards with his little finger continuously.

Li Shuwen swung his spear and pierced Ito's throat, then kicked the spear again and threw the corpse out of the martial arts hall.

When Japanese martial arts instructors Akino, Inoue, and Noda saw their companion being stabbed to death by Li Shuwen, they all drew their knives and rushed towards Li Shuwen to kill him.

Then, the three Japanese martial arts masters were thrown out of the martial arts hall like corpses.

Upon seeing this, Yuan Shikai exclaimed repeatedly: "Magic gun! Magic gun! It's really a magic gun!" From then on, "Magic Gun Li Shuwen" became famous all over the world.

Fangyan now remembered that the spear technique performed by his brother-in-law just now should be of this type.

After some inquiries from Fangyan, it was confirmed that his brother-in-law was practicing Luotuan Bajiquan.

However, my brother-in-law's skills are basically internal training, and his fighting style only has a few moves, and they are not even coherent. Fangyan guessed that either the person who taught him did not teach him completely on purpose, or the old soldier did not learn it in the first place.

After communicating with his brother-in-law for a few times, Fangyan confirmed that his brother-in-law had been riding horses for many years and had practiced martial arts, so he was indeed extremely strong.

In addition, he was about 1.9 meters tall, and the Bajiquan he performed was very oppressive, making Fang Yan feel as if he was facing another Shan Haoran.

Later, Fangyan saw his elder brother-in-law practicing Baji spear with a broom, and found that he used this technique very skillfully, even as good as his elder brother's Shaolin spear technique.

Fangyan understood immediately that the old soldier really didn't practice bare-handed techniques, but was more proficient in Baji gun techniques, which was a real killer in hand-to-hand combat on the battlefield.

In addition, Fangyan also saw what the heavy object in the bag yesterday was.

It turned out to be a stone lock used for practicing martial arts.

This thing can be put into a bag without damaging the strap, which shows that bags are well made these days.

Fangyan said to the elder sister:

"Okay, my brother-in-law has this set of kung fu. Even if he is not talented in traceology, he can still be an instructor or bodyguard. If he is also good at traceology, then he can be both civil and martial in the public security team, which is amazing!"

The elder sister was so happy to hear these words. She never realized that her man had such a precious side.

...Then Fangyan took his eldest sister and brother-in-law out for a walk.

In fact, the changes in the capital city in recent years are not that big. Even though my eldest sister left for eight years, everything is basically still the same. Only the slogans in front have changed. Those messy slogans were all replaced with new ones overnight in the past few months.

My eldest brother-in-law Zhao Yuanchao found everything interesting and looked around curiously.

Because of his tall stature, he is easily noticed. When facing other people's gazes, he always habitually smiles and nods in response.

As a result, people who were looking at him smiled and nodded at him for no apparent reason.

This scene made it seem as if many people on the street were his acquaintances.

Because time was limited in the morning, everyone just walked around here.

Because there were leftovers at home last night, there was no need to buy breakfast this morning, and the three of them went straight home.

When my brother-in-law returned, he hesitated for a long time before asking awkwardly:

"Brother, I...I heard there is a Tiananmen Square in Beijing, right?"

Fangyan suddenly realized that this place was a holy place for people all over the country. He nodded and said:
"Yeah, it's not far from here."

"Brother-in-law, do you want to go and take a look?"

My brother-in-law smiled and scratched his head, saying:

"I just want to take Zhengyi and Mingzhu to take a look..."

Fang Yan said to his brother-in-law:

"You should go through the procedures for settling back to the city at noon today. When you go to buy clothes in the afternoon, let your elder sister take you to look around."

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Ziren's memorial hall was just completed at the beginning of the month. You can go and take a look."

Hearing this, the brother-in-law's face flushed with excitement. He glanced at his wife and said:
"That works!"

The eldest sister smiled and said:

"I'll take you there later."

My brother-in-law nodded repeatedly like a child:
"Good good!"

When I got home, Zhu Lin and my mother were already making breakfast.

In the front yard room, little boy Zhao Zhengyi was struggling to dress his sister.

When he saw his parents and third uncle coming back, he greeted them. Fangyan found that this boy was much more mature than other children of the same age.

Zhao Mingzhu, who was half asleep, was still a little confused at the moment, looking at the surrounding environment as if she had not yet reacted.

He was clearly in a yurt before, but today he was lying on a big bed in the capital.

Only after she saw her third uncle did she react.

He shouted loudly:
"Third uncle."

Seeing this scene, the eldest sister Fang Jie said with a smile:

"This girl is close to her third uncle."

Fang Yan also smiled and waved his hand, saying:

"From now on, the cost of the two children's schooling will be fully covered by me, their third uncle."
