December 12, the seventh year of Kangxi reign in the Qing Dynasty.
With the sound of crackling firecrackers, people crowded near Yangsan Teahouse in Zhushikou. Everyone crowded at the gate and beamed inside to look at the little hero Wang Zhongxiao and Wang Zhongxiao, the famous "pig-killer Baturou" who shocked the capital.
These firecrackers were set off for this "Pig-killing Batulu"!
Because today is a good day for the little hero Wang Zhongxiao and Wang Zhongxiao, who saved the current Emperor Mazi by picking off a wild boar with a spear and was awarded the title of Blue Ling Bodyguard and Chief of Bukuu, to officially open a martial arts gym and establish a brand name in the outer city of Beijing.
It’s not easy to open a martial arts gym in Beijing. First, you need to have real kung fu!
The second is that you have to accept the test of martial arts friends in Beijing... If you have real skills, you can't rely on yourself. Before the martial arts gym opens, you have to find a busy place on the street outside Zhengyangmen to set up a shop. , accept the peer challenge.
If you are not good at Kung Fu and get beaten up by your peers, then this martial arts gym will be closed!
Wang Zhongxiao followed this rule today and borrowed the site of Yang Qilong's Yang San Teahouse to set up a brand name, waiting for his martial arts friends in Beijing to stir up trouble.
However, his reputation is too great. His father is Wang Zhongxiao, who is recognized as the "number one master of the Han people". He himself is nicknamed "Batulu the Pig Killer", and his Yang family gun makes even Obai applaud him.
Therefore, the friends in the arena just wanted to save face. For most of the day, no one dared to come to fight. The six-foot-long spear used to kill wild boars is still standing at the gate of Yang San Tea House and has not opened yet!
In addition, outside the teahouse, Wang Zhongxiao's four strong men, "Xian, Yi, An, and Quan", all dressed in shorts and holding long spears specially used for competitions, performed the Yang family's marksmanship in sequence. There were some knowledgeable people among the onlookers, who cheered loudly.
At this time, Wang Zhongxiao was drinking tea and chatting with his master Duolong, teacher Nalan Mingzhu, and good brother Guanyinbao in the teahouse, looking confident.
Well, a second-grade bachelor of Neihongwen Academy, a third-grade first-class bodyguard, and the foreman of the associate seal! There is another one who is also a first-class bodyguard. The three of them came out to support Wang Zhongxiao. Who wants to come to the gym again? How disrespectful?
Besides, Wang Zhongxiao’s Kung Fu is indeed real!
Not only was he good at using guns, but he was also very good at horseback riding and archery... At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, those who used guns, carried stone locks, shot arrows, rode on horses, tricked horses (equestrian), etc. were the real skills. , is a traditional Chinese martial art. Those who use fists and palms are not good enough.
Because these days, the highest goal for everyone who enters a martial arts gym to learn kung fu is to take the martial arts examination. Can the martial arts examination test boxing and kicking? On the battlefield, someone comes with a horse, a dancer, and a big gun. Can you beat him with your fist? Doesn't this cost someone's head?
Of course, wrestling can be considered a real skill - although there is not much opportunity to wrestle with the enemy on the battlefield, many of the bannermen's children in Beijing like to play wrestling, so they are willing to spend money to learn it. Quite a few.
Yang Qilong took a few guys to greet him inside and outside - there were no people to kick the gym, but there were many comrades who came to send congratulatory gifts. The relationship between the comrades in the Beijing martial arts industry was really harmonious!
All the martial arts schools that had opened in Beijing sent their masters to congratulate him. Each of these masters has their chests and belly puffed out, trying hard to look more energetic... If Mingzhu, Duolong, and Guanyinbao fall in love and hire them as thugs, good times will come. ?
Yang Qilong's sister, Yang Xiaohuan, was handing a scroll to two teenagers who were about to become apprentices and asked them to hang it high.
As soon as the scroll was unfolded, everyone saw a portrait of a heroic woman holding a spear.
"Hey, who is this woman?" Guanyinbao asked, pointing to the portrait, "Why is she still holding a spear?"
"Look at the guards, this is Yang Miaozhen, the founder of their Yang Family Gun!" Nalan Mingzhu was well-read and knew the origin of the Yang Family Gun.
Duolong was also stunned, "The ancestor of the Yang Family Gun is called Yang Miaozhen, and what about the ancestor? Could it be Yang Ye and Yang Laolinggong?"
"Yang Ye?" Wang Zhongxiao laughed, "Master, you have confused the Yang family general with the Yang family gun... The Yang family gun was created by the founder of the family, Yang Miaozhen, and she has nothing to do with Yang Laolinggong. .
If you want to ask us who the founder of the Yang Family Gun is, it should be Li Quan, the leader of the Red Coat Army who roamed the Shandong and Jianghuai areas in the late Jin Dynasty. Yang Miaozhen was his wife and the sister of Yang An'er, another leader of the Red Coat Army. Although she was a female, she was good at using the pear blossom spear and was said to be invincible in fighting all over the world for twenty years. The marksmanship she created was passed down and was known as the Yang Family Gun.
Later, the Yang family gun was divided into many schools. My school of Yang family gun is called the thirty-six-style horse war gun! It is the ability to ride a big horse and poke people with a gun. Although it is difficult to practice, once you practice it, you can take the martial arts test, serve the court, and gain a wife! "
"Master, the portrait of the ancestor's wife has been hung up!"
While Wang Zhongxiao was bragging about the inheritance of the Yang family gun he had learned with Mingzhu, Duolong, Guanyinbao and others, his eldest disciple Yang Xiaohuan had already directed his two juniors to hang the portrait of Yang Miaozhen.
Wang Zhongxiao looked back at the portrait of his ancestor's wife, and then looked at Yang Xiaohuan, who would soon officially become his disciple. He smiled and ordered: "Xiaohuan, go and call all the junior brothers here, and find two more people to carry them." With the plaque of our Jingwu Sect!”
"Yes, Master." Yang Xiaohuan bowed her hands, called the two teenagers who helped her hang the portrait, and went to the second floor of the teahouse together.
After a while, I saw the two teenagers walking out carrying a signboard with three large characters "Jingwu Sect" engraved on a black background and gold letters - "Jingwu Sect" is the name of the martial arts gym run by Wang Zhongxiao!
Of course, the essence of Jingwu Sect does not mean the essence of human beings, but the meaning of serving the country with loyalty. Learn martial arts well and serve the country with loyalty... This rhetoric was of course said by Wang Zhongxiao to Kangxi. Although the Jingwu Sect It was to cultivate rebel talents, but it was also established with the approval of Emperor Kangxi.
Emperor Xiao Mazi also wrote the words "Jingwu Sect" and gave it to Wang Zhongxiao. He also instructed Fuquan to allocate two thousand taels of silver to Wang Zhongxiao...
With Emperor Kangxi's endorsement, Wang Zhongxiao could openly and openly use the money given by Kangxi to train his own team under the emperor's nose!
These hundreds of young disciples of Jingwu Sect recruited through Yang Qilong's relationship were quickly led down from the second floor of the teahouse by Yang Xiaohuan. The number of people was indeed small, but the team finally opened.
Moreover, if there are too many disciples, it will not be able to teach them, and it will easily arouse suspicion. Now, the only people Wang Zhongxiao can teach these young apprentices are himself, Master Yu, Li Jixiang, and "Xian, Yi, An, Quan", a total of seven people. Among them, Wang Zhongxiao also has errands, and Yu Deshui and Li Jixiang have to help run errands from time to time, so the teaching staff is really limited.
In addition, Wang Zhongxiao also planned to train these young disciples as pillars and backbones, taking the route of elite soldiers. He not only had to teach them archery and wrestling, but also taught them riding and archery, horsemanship (equestrian), firearms, and infantry and cavalry formations. As well as reading and learning calligraphy...that is, these people should be trained as grassroots officers. If half of the current hundred or ten apprentices can "graduate", it would be considered extremely successful.
These one hundred young disciples don't know what a magnificent life they will experience now. They just gather in front of Yang San Teahouse in ignorance, looking at the enshrined portrait of the "Founder's Wife", the plaque of "Jingwu Sect", and... There is Wang Zhongxiao's six-foot long spear.
Wang Zhongxiao stood up, strode up to his young disciples, looked at the young faces, and said loudly: "Disciples, the old and young men of the Beijing Martial Arts School can give me Wang Zhongxiao a little kindness. Our Jingwu Sect, which specializes in Yang family guns... From now on, our Jingwu Sect's name will be established! You will learn from me in the future, and there will be a few martial arts scholars in the future. So that we, the old Wang family, can carry forward the thirty-six-type Yang family horse war spear passed down by us!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Master Yu started shouting: "The disciples of Jingwu Sect kowtow to Master Wang! Kneel down..."
As the word "kneel" came out, Senior Sister Yang Xiaohuan was the first to kneel down in front of Master Wang Zhongxiao, followed by hundreds of teenagers who knelt down and cheered, and everyone shouted together: "Disciple, please say hello to Master." ..."
Looking at a large group of young apprentices, Wang Zhongxiao felt so happy that he almost burst into song: I remember when my team just opened...
