"You two old men are not done yet. What kind of men are you arguing here so early in the morning?" At some point, the woman named Chen Xiuqin came over and saw that the two people quarreling were Fang Ting and Zhang Yuan. , she said even more dissatisfied: "The injuries on you two have not healed yet. If you are injured, don't blame me for ignoring you!"
After saying that, without waiting for Zhang Yuan and Fang Ting to respond, Chen Xiuqin turned around and left. The next moment, Zhang Yuan and the two who had been fighting fiercely withered like eggplants beaten by frost, with no intention of continuing to fight for the throne.
In fact, the two of them had no real intention to compete at first. They just wanted to decide the winner through lip service. As a result, other people came over to make a fuss, and the fight turned into a competition. But after the woman came, now the two of them are fighting. But he no longer even felt like continuing to argue.
"Everyone, please disperse," Fang Ting didn't want his companions to see their good show anymore. Feeling embarrassed, Fang Ting shouted directly to the people around him.
"It's really boring," Fang Ting shouted. Seeing that there was no excitement to be seen, everyone had to turn around and leave.
After those people left, Fang Ting asked Lu Yunyou seriously: "Brother Yunyou, do you want to learn boxing or palm skills?"
"Me?" Facing Fang Ting's eager gaze, Lu Yunyou suddenly started to think hard, because although Zhang Qi on the side did not ask, he was staring at him with the same look as Fang Ting. It goes without saying.
So with the two people staring intently, Lu Yunyou couldn't help but become nervous. Although he knew that both of them had good intentions and wanted to teach him some skills, it seemed that he could only choose one of them to become his disciple. Choosing one person meant that he would offend the other person. , and he didn't want to offend any of them. In the conflict, his brows were already furrowed.
After a while, before he could think of an answer, Lu Yunyou had no choice but to ask: "What is the difference between boxing and palm skills?"
As soon as these words came out, Fang Ting and Zhang Yuan, who had been waiting for a long time, looked shocked. In fact, there is not much difference between boxing and palm techniques. Both techniques are close-range martial arts and are generally used to strengthen the body. At most, there is only a slight difference in the way of attacking, one is punching and the other is palming, that's all.
So when Lu Yunyou asked them like that, the two of them didn't know how to answer after realizing that their skills were not much different.
"Both boxing and palm techniques have the effect of strengthening the body. The characteristic of boxing lies in its strong strength, while the characteristic of palm techniques lies in the variety of moves." After pondering for a while, Fang Ting was the first to answer Lu Yunyou's question.
"Although the palm technique is not as powerful as the boxing technique, it is more flexible in the change of moves. If used skillfully, the power is no less than the boxing technique. Don't listen to his nonsense," Zhang Yuan said immediately when Fang Ting boasted about the advantages of the boxing technique. Advantages of Palm Technique.
"Are there more people in the team who use boxing techniques or more people who use palm techniques?" The two people had different opinions. Lu Yunyou, who didn't quite understand, could only continue to ask for advice in a tricky way.
"This... this..." He was surprised by Lu Yunyou's question again and hesitated for a long time. This time Fang Ting failed to explain the reason.
"Actually, there are not many practical ones." Unlike Fang Ting, Zhang Yuan told Lu Yunyou very frankly: "If you are really fighting with others or ferocious beasts, no one would choose to fight with the opponent with bare hands, so learn boxing skills. The purpose of Hezhang Technique is mainly to strengthen the body.”
"I see," it is not difficult to understand what Zhang Yuan means. After all, it is difficult to fight with weapons with bare hands. Now it seems that whether you are learning boxing or palm skills, most of the time it can only be used to strengthen your body. Understand this Finally, Lu Yunyou couldn't help but feel that it didn't matter who he learned from.
"In fact, all martial arts can be roughly divided into two categories, one is physical skills, and the other is martial arts. The function of physical skills is to strengthen the muscles and bones, and the function of martial arts is to kill people," Zhang Yuan added in order to show his profound knowledge. Said: "Physical skills can be divided into two aspects: body forging and qi refining. The focus is on honing the muscles, bones and strength of martial arts. Martial arts are so diverse that no one can learn them all in a lifetime."
"The biggest difference between physical skills and martial arts is that one is internal and the other is external." At the end, Zhang Yuan did not forget to point out the essential difference between physical skills and martial arts.
"Is martial arts more useful, or physical skills more useful?" Perhaps Zhang Yuan's supplement had deviated from the issue they originally discussed, but it also had a great attraction for Lu Yunyou beside him.
"Physical skills and martial arts complement each other. Generally speaking, physical skills are regarded as the basis for martial arts practitioners to learn various martial arts. Without a strong body, it is difficult for ordinary martial arts practitioners to perform powerful martial arts; similarly, if they do not know powerful martial arts, then Physical skills can only be used to strengthen the body. In short, both are indispensable, and there is no clear difference between strength and weakness." Faced with Lu Yunyou's inquiry, Zhang Yuan expressed his opinion without hesitation.
"Of course, there are some special examples throughout the ages. Some people have practiced physical skills to the extreme and are invulnerable. They can easily defeat powerful enemies even without the help of martial arts. Some people have practiced martial arts to the extreme. Even if they don't know any physical skills, they are still powerful. It's scary, but there are very few people in both categories. Most martial arts cultivators are like us who are good at both physical and martial arts, but they are not good at it." After taking Zhang Yuan's words, Fang Ting couldn't hold it in anymore. express his opinion.
Unexpectedly, under Lu Yunyou's humbly asking for advice, Fang Ting and Zhang Yuan put aside their original conflicts, and each of them gave Lu Yunyou pointers. The more ignorant Lu Yunyou showed, the more harmonious they became.
"Look at the person over there who keeps lifting the wood, and the person next to him standing still in a fixed posture. They are all training their strength."
"The man over there with the knife who keeps doing tricks is practicing martial arts."
…
Worried that Lu Yunyou didn't understand it thoroughly enough, the two of them deliberately explained it to Lu Yunyou with some practical examples, pointing to five or six people in succession.
Following the directions of the two men, Lu Yunyou saw that some people were exercising in special standing postures, some were practicing strength by constantly lifting heavy objects, some were practicing sword skills, and some were practicing sword skills. In short, he could easily distinguish those. Are people practicing martial arts or physical skills?
After Zhang Yuan and Fang Ting's careful guidance, he had a clear concept of the types of exercises. Thinking about it, his Bahuang Bu does not require the use of weapons as a movement method, and it also has the effect of strengthening the body. The effect obviously belongs to the category of physical skills. As for martial arts, he has only learned one swordsmanship since he was a child, and he only learned half of it.
"Brother Yunyou, do you want to continue learning boxing from me?" Just when Lu Yunyou was thinking that he should learn a powerful martial art, Fang Ting on the side repeated the previous question again.
Facing Fang Ting's repeated inquiries, Lu Yunyou couldn't help but look at Zhang Yuan who was standing aside.
"It's all up to you to learn boxing and palm, you decide for yourself, don't force it," meeting Lu Yunyou's gaze, this time Zhang Yuan no longer insisted on distinguishing himself from Fang Ting like before.
"Can I learn both?" Although he no longer has much interest in learning physical skills, when he thought that he knew so few skills, Lu Yunyou suddenly felt that he could learn two skills at the same time, because in his opinion, The more you learn, the better you become, and this won't make things difficult for the two of you.
"No, in the pursuit of martial arts, martial arts has always valued excellence rather than quantity. How can you learn various techniques at will?" Without thinking, Fang Ting directly denied Lu Yunyou's question based on his own experience. In his opinion, Lu Yunyou doesn't seem to be the kind of person who is talented and intelligent, and it is impossible to learn everything instantly. Besides, their time is limited. If Lu Yunyou is distracted, he may not be able to learn anything in the end.
"Fang Ting is right, martial arts pursues the ultimate. Whether it is low-level skills or high-level skills, as long as you can practice them to the extent you want, no matter how ordinary skills are, they can exert unimaginable power," Lu Yunyou was surprised. What was surprising was that this time Zhang Yuan did not refute Fang Ting's statement, but instead made some similar opinions.
At this time, because both of them rejected his idea, Lu Yunyou had no choice but to stop talking. After all, the question he raised just now was just a whim, and he didn't want to give up halfway.
"Let him learn boxing from me. My boxing is simpler and he can learn faster," Fang Ting then asked Zhang Yuan as if giving advice.
"Okay," the next moment, Zhang Yuan once again surprisingly did not object to Fang Ting's proposal.
"Brother Yunyou, you first learn boxing from Fang Ting. If you don't understand anything, you can come and ask me." Although he no longer insisted on Lu Yunyou learning his palm skills, Zhang Yuan did not give up on teaching Lu Yunyou other things. Therefore, after agreeing to Fang Ting's proposal, he did not forget to remind Lu Yunyou.
"Okay." After seeing Zhang Yuan and Fang Ting reaching a consensus, Lu Yunyou was still extremely happy that he no longer had to make a choice.
"Yunyou, come here with me," on the other side, after confirming that Zhang Yuan had no objection, Fang Ting directly pulled Lu Yunyou aside, as if he didn't want Zhang Yuan to influence him.
"Watch it." After a while, Fang Ting started practicing again. This time, his movements were very slow from beginning to end. He reflected the key points of the force of the moves and the force of the moves. While practicing the moves, While explaining the characteristics of those moves, with his repeated explanations, by the evening, Lu Yunyou was able to complete a complete set of boxing techniques.
