People who practice martial arts often say that winning or losing is not important. Strengthening the body is the essence of martial arts.
Does winning or losing really not matter?
In Lin Yue's view, this statement is just for modesty (zhuang) and emptiness (bi), because five thousand years of culture tells everyone that modesty is a virtue.
Of course, saying this can also take care of the feelings of the losing party.
In fact, no motivated practitioner can let go of the desire to win. Only by competing can progress be made, and the form of competition in Chinese martial arts is to determine the winner.
Ip Man is good at martial arts, and he is also inevitably competitive. It is just because of his family background, personality, love for his wife and other reasons that he has always restrained himself and acted in a low-key manner.
There is a scene in the movie plot of "Ip Man" where the martial arts idiot Lin became a disciple of Master Liao. After learning the unique skills, he went to Ip Man to learn and compete. Judging from Zhang Yongcheng's reaction, it seems that this kind of thing happens often.
On the day when stage task (four) was issued, after seeing Wu Chi Lin, he suddenly thought of a way to provoke the general, so he combined boxing and Wing Chun routines and taught a few specious "Wing Chun" moves.
Although the debate about who is the "authentic Wing Chun" between Liang Bi and Chen Hua Shun has not been mentioned by many people anymore, the discussion about which one is stronger between Lin Yue and Ip Man has always been a hot topic in Foshan. Wu Chilin learned from him How could he not show off his actual combat skills in front of Ip Man.
Those two people will compete for the first time and they will compete for the second time. On the surface, this is a personal competition between Wu Chi Lin and Ip Man. In fact, the former is a tool. In essence, it is the two successors of Wing Chun who compete with each other. A game at the level of martial arts understanding.
The two sides were going back and forth, trying to show off their tricks. When the skills taught by Lin Yue became more and more sophisticated, beyond the level that martial arts idiot Lin could understand and use, he did not believe that Ip Man, who had been addicted to it, could still sit firmly on the Diaoyutai. You know As a member of a wealthy family, you can live a life without worries about food and clothing by relying only on house rent and land rent. You have more free time without working. If you don't have hobbies to kill time, your life will be empty.
You can endure emptiness for one day, you can endure emptiness for two days, you can endure emptiness for a week, but what about one month of emptiness?
Therefore, Wu Chi Lin was the bait he threw out, and Ip Man was the prey that walked into the trap step by step.
Not to mention martial arts, if anyone can keep his composure better, Ip Man has already lost.
"Senior Brother Ye, you sit down first and I'll make tea." Lin Yue led Ye Wen to an armchair and sat down.
"I heard that Jinshan found those people to live in the museum. Where are they?"
Lin Yue knew what Ye Wen meant. As a master, how could he entertain guests personally.
"I asked Jinshan to ask them to go to HK to do something."
"Oh, then I didn't disturb you from teaching the students, right?"
"How could it be!" Lin Yue smiled and walked back.
When he arrived at the back hall, he took out the cleaned teacup and teapot, put in the Dahongpao that President Li brought last time, and was about to pour boiling water into it when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the door.
The curtain swung and Ye Wen's face appeared over there.
"Senior Brother Ye?"
"Junior Brother Lin, don't bother me. I'll tell you the truth. I came here this time to... play a game with Junior Brother Lin and learn from each other."
"Sparring and sparring?"
"Sparse and learn from each other."
Lin Yue put down the kettle and looked at him curiously: "Did Senior Brother Wu force you to come here?"
Ye Wen said: "No matter what happened to Senior Brother Wu, I feel that I am idle, so I might as well compete with each other and stretch my muscles."
"Don't do it." Lin Yue waved his hand: "It's not good for others to see."
Ye Wen said: "Let's do it behind closed doors, no one will know."
Lin Yue thought to himself, do you ever have a time when you chase after others and ask for advice?
"I think it's better to forget it."
Ip Man's expression is a bit unnatural, and it's really interesting how he is obviously impatient but trying to maintain calm.
"Junior brother Lin, are you afraid of losing to me?"
It's great that the rhetoric used by others to motivate him to take action is now used by him to motivate himself to take action.
Lin Yue felt that the heat was almost over, and he should be annoyed if he pushed away Ip Man. After all, it was a shame from Ip Man's point of view to let a member of a famous family who worked hard to maintain an indisputable reputation reach this point.
"Since Senior Brother Ye insists on sparring, as junior brothers... it is better to be respectful than to obey orders."
Ip Man had a look of shame on his face when he said this. He had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he had never actively asked to compete with others in all these years. The most positive time he showed was when he was studying in Hong Kong and heard foreigners using the term "sick man of East Asia" to humiliate his classmates. He couldn't help but teach a lesson.
Lin Yue opened the door to the backyard and walked out.
Ip Man followed closely behind.
It was almost evening, and the dusk was shining on the wall and the wooden mannequins placed in the corners. The hands of the mannequins had become extremely oily due to long-term beating and pressing, and they reflected bright light in the setting sun.
Lin Yue walked to the middle of the yard and stopped, turned around and started riding, choosing the starting position of laying hands and guarding the hands.
Ye Wen stood up and swung the hem of his robe, took it with his hands and pulled it away from the belt, exposing his lower legs. After he finished, he lowered his waist and inhaled, and held hands to meet each other.
"Wow, there's a good show to watch, there's a good show to watch."
As soon as the two of them got into position, a voice that sounded a bit harsh sounded.
"Fuck him, fuck him, fuck him till you don't even recognize him."
Ye Wen turned his head and looked. There was a birdcage hanging under the eaves of the gatehouse in the backyard. There was a red-billed green-winged parrot in the birdcage.
A parrot that can curse!
The solemnity and confrontation between the two people was distorted by his words.
Ip Man was both surprised and embarrassed.
Lin Yue dug into his coat pocket, took out a piece of toffee used to reward children who study hard, and flicked it back.
Bang!
The toffee hit the frame of the birdcage, frightening the parrot inside to flap its wings and scream wildly.
"If you keep talking too much, Jinshan will wash you and pluck your hair and use it to make soup."
This time the silly bird stopped talking. He raised his wings and buried his head in them, as if he knew he was wrong and was begging to be let go.
Lin Yue turned back and said apologetically: "This bird has always been mean-mouthed, so don't pay attention to it."
Ye Wen nodded, made a circle with his right foot, and repeated his hand gesture.
Lin jumped on his horse and struck, punching his opponent in the face.
Ye Wen is the senior brother, he is the junior brother, so he should make the first move.
Pa~
Pa~
Pa~
The guard is turned outward, the open hand is against the circle hand, the elbow is against the shoulder hand...
The two moved very quickly, including short bridges, low kicks, horse turns, and horizontal steps. Their fists and shadows intertwined, their clothes and sleeves flew, and it was difficult to tell them apart for a while. Their hands collided with each other, making bursts of crisp sounds.
Plow, circle, protect, support, press, hook, block, shoulder, spread, and lie down. Gradually, the short beating turns into a sticky beat, and the sticky beat turns into an overhand move.
Together with Wing Chun, both of them have basically achieved the ultimate in proficiency in moves. What can really determine the outcome is consciousness, understanding, and physical fitness.
After warming up, Lin Yue suddenly changed his moves. He suddenly turned around and took the left step of the punch, then delivered an uppercut.
Ye Wen did not expect that his fist style transformation would not feel stagnant at all, unlike Wu Chi Lin. Even if he was on guard, he was caught off guard and could only use his palms to block.
Fists and palms meet.
Snapped!
Ye Wen took a big step back.
At this moment, Lin Yue summoned Wing Chun, stepped forward, followed up with punches and punches, and then followed up with a series of blows, forcing Ip Man to retreat continuously, only defensively and not offensively.
Just when he found an opening and was about to restore the situation, Lin Yue changed his style of attack again. He closed his fists to increase his energy, then used his feet to make a sweeping sweep. The whip leg hit Ye Wen hard on the arm. Although he suddenly changed his arms and hands, he After losing most of his strength, he was still shocked by the huge force. He took three big steps back, and finally stopped when his back hit the courtyard wall.
Most of them were moves that Wu Chi Lin had used before, but when Lin Yue used them, it was hard to adapt to the unexpected change in fist style.
No wonder Lin Yue had reminded him what to be wary of and what to use when he dueled with the Nanyang people. It turned out that he also had high attainments in Muay Thai.
The Nanyang people are dominant in the long distance in Muay Thai. Once the opponent gets close, the shortcomings of Wing Chun, which is good at close and short strikes, will be exposed. And this junior brother Lin... How should I put it, he thought about it. Only the word "pervert" can be used to describe it.
Wing Chun is used for close quarters and short fighting, or Wing Chun has been improved by adding high-leg, short bridge, and hand throwing. In the middle and long distances, there is Muay Thai and explosive and fast boxing. What is even more exaggerated is the integration of Chinese, Western, and Nanyang boxing. , can be switched freely, completely contrary to the common sense of "biting off more than one can chew" recognized in the martial arts community.
How did this guy practice?
It would be very difficult for an ordinary person to become proficient in one kind of boxing technique for a lifetime, but he was good at it. His writings were erudite and comprehensive, and he also learned Chinese and Western martial arts.
"Senior Brother Ye, are you okay?" Lin Yue retracted his fists and legs, took a step back, and returned to the Wing Chun starting position.
Ye Wen rubbed his arm and moved his elbow joint: "I'm fine."
"That……"
"Come again."
Phew~
Taking a deep breath and exhaling it forcefully, Ye Wen took a step forward and regrouped to face the enemy.
Lin Yue's expression changed when he saw his small movement.
He is indeed the most talented descendant of the Wing Chun school, and he really found a way to break the situation.
