Beep! ! ! ! !
When other Qing soldiers discovered the anomaly in Baoshengtang Medical Center and blew the whistle to warn, Guan Luoyang's figure had disappeared at the end of the street.
He hid the ferry ticket in his belt, and quickly turned around two streets with slow but quick steps.
A small river about six meters wide lay in front of him, and there were boats moored on the river.
Guan Luoyang took a long step forward and stepped on the bow of the boat to use his strength. As the water rippled, he reached the other side and walked along the bamboo pavilion on the riverside.
Wow!
The gentle sound of water swayed into his ears. Guan Luoyang's steps suddenly slowed down and he looked back.
On this small river, just within sight, there were four small boats parked. Some were unloading cargo, while others were resting in the cabin. There were children lying on the bow of the boat, playing with the water with their hands.
The sound of water just now didn't seem unusual in such an environment.
But Guan Luoyang's sight was more than a dozen steps away. After staying for a moment on the small boat he had borrowed just now, he became extra cautious.
When he turned around and walked away with a normal expression, most of his attention was actually on his hearing. As he walked, his auricles would tremble slightly unnoticeably.
The shadows cast by bamboo sheds and pavilions can be large or small. Where the pavilion is located, the foundation will be slightly higher. A few pavilions are exquisite, with fences on all sides and steps. Guan Luoyang walked through it section by section, and reached the end of this corridor. At this time, he had quietly deviated from the route back.
He walked further and further away, looking for the direction where the crowds were sparse.
After walking around for half an hour, an unfinished building appeared in front of it. The scaffolding made of thick bamboo was divided into layers up and down. Inside, most of the high walls and cornices had been built.
This is probably a wealthy businessman who wants to build a new mansion. The courtyard walls are built on three sides, and there is still a rammed mud floor inside, with piles of various bamboos, sand, and bricks.
But around lunch time, the bricklayers and masons also took the opportunity to run to the street to watch the excitement, and there was no one doing construction around.
Guan Luoyang put one hand on the bamboo stand next to him and said in a moderate voice: "Since I can't get rid of you, do you want to come out and meet me?"
No one answered behind me.
Guan Luoyang said: "Are you still hoping for luck? You hid it very well, but you still can't escape my ears. It's impossible to follow the clues. Either you leave directly and we pretend we haven't met you, or you Just send out fireworks and see if you can hold off until others hear the news and come."
When it came to the last paragraph, Guan Luoyang's ears that kept trembling suddenly tensed up, and he finally locked the opponent's position.
His right hand, which was resting on the moso bamboo stand, felt a shock on his shoulder, and directly pierced the end of a moso bamboo with the tips of his five fingers, grabbing and twisting it with his wrist.
Crackling!
He twisted the nearly two-meter-long piece of moso bamboo into a bunch of broken bamboo strips, pulled it out, and ran with it. He ran a dozen meters away in one step and whipped it towards a small tree as thick as a thigh.
Bamboo strips are tough, and the edges of bamboo strips that have been violently twisted and broken are even more dangerous. They can easily cut clothing and skin, scrape off skin and flesh, and pierce blood vessels.
With Guan Luoyang's blow, the middle part of the bamboo stick hit the tree, and the front half bent and hit directly behind the tree.
The person hiding behind the tree did not expect that the other party would suddenly use this strange weapon. He did not check for a moment and had no time to dodge. He just wrapped himself in a cloak and suffered the slap.
I don’t know what material his cloak is made of. It looks gray and inconspicuous, but when a large bunch of bamboo sticks were pulled on it, it seemed like it had been hit by several layers of taut old cowhide, and it bounced away with a bang. .
The stalker blocked the blow, without thinking, and ducked to the left, narrowly dodging Guan Luoyang's punch that penetrated the tree trunk.
He turned around and struck the upper part of the tree trunk with his forearm.
The entire tree was separated from where it was penetrated, and the upper half of the trunk was smashed towards Guan Luoyang.
Guan Luoyang did not block him, he took a big step with his feet, walked around a full arc, and passed by the tree trunk. He stretched his long arms like an ape climbing a branch, and grabbed the pursuer's head.
The pursuer shrank back, pulled his cloak behind him and whirled around.
An iron ball the size of a bull's eye flew out of the cloak, and with a whoosh, it almost hit Guan Luoyang's chest.
Guan Luoyang gained the upper hand by taking advantage of the surprise by breaking the moso bamboo. He wanted to shoulder the iron ball and finish off his opponent as quickly as possible, but for some reason, the hair on his body stood up and he turned sideways in a horrifying way.
The iron ball flew out and hit the scaffolding more than ten meters away.
Boom! ! !
Seven or eight tied moso bamboos were broken by the explosion, and the bamboo joints were blown to pieces. The newly built bricks were also blown apart, and smoke and dust exploded.
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Guan Luoyang's forehead.
If it hadn't been for the subtle premonition that made him subconsciously dodge, the power would have probably blown a big hole in his chest.
The seemingly ordinary iron ball actually contained a yellow semi-solid explosive. This explosive was extremely dangerous. Friction, collision, and even sudden temperature changes could cause an explosion.
Ordinary grenades are too big a target for a boxer. You have to prepare before throwing them, and you can easily dodge them. You can use this explosive to make a hidden weapon to hit people. No preparation is required in advance. Just rub it and you can blow it up. His hands and feet were flying around.
In the jargon of the older generation, this kind of hidden weapon is called a thunderbolt. It has a notorious reputation and was once popular on a small scale for a period of time.
However, precisely because this kind of hidden weapon is so dangerous, if the user dares to carry it with him, he will be killed first, so he soon disappeared from the martial arts world.
This stalker actually dared to lead Pilizi around in a crowded place like Guangzhou City. It was so audacious.
As soon as the thunderbolt exploded, Guan Luoyang's first-hand advantage gained by breaking the bamboo was completely destroyed.
The stalker's dusty cloak had been removed from his body. He shook it in an arc and twisted it like a cloth stick. He chased Guan Luoyang and beat him.
The cloth stick itself is not scary, but Guan Luoyang is afraid that there are thunderbolts hidden in his cloak, so he doesn't dare to attack it forcefully and can only dodge continuously.
According to the instructor, among the experts at the Sticky Rod Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there was only one who left traces of gunpowder explosions at the murder scene many times.
It is the Arhat and Lightning Mother, the "Dragon and Tiger" among the four Kuai Dao, Dragon and Tiger.
This man's nickname is Tiger, and his real name is Long. He is the only one who was not cultivated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but first became famous in the green forests of the seven provinces, and later joined the Ministry of Internal Affairs - "the white-fronted tiger with wings and feathers", Long Wuchang.
The reason why he was forced to remain anonymous and join the Ministry of Internal Affairs was because he specifically targeted boxers from escort bureaus and martial arts schools, which aroused the public indignation of martial artists from seven provinces.
The louder the opponent's name and the higher his boxing skills, the more excited Long Wuchang becomes, just like a hunter who will brag about his achievements in hunting tigers and leopards. In Long Wuchang's view, killing these well-known boxers is a means of proof.
It’s not about proving to others, it’s about proving to yourself.
Prove that you are strong enough and that your vitality will not age.
The cloth stick was like a coiled dragon and snake, waving and chasing. Long Wuchang's scorched yellow face had ordinary features, but there was a blood-thirsty excitement in his eyes, and the strength in his hands increased again and again.
Guan Luoyang was dodging, swallowing and exhaling, and his breathing became longer and longer. At the moment when exhalation and inhalation were connected, he suddenly took the initiative to draw out his whip hand and touched the cloth stick.
But at the moment they met, the whip hand turned into a cloud, and Guan Luoyang's hand was swung around. It was as soft as a bone. It even made people mistakenly think that his hand was a soft silk cloth, and it was wrapped around the hand. stick.
With this twisting and shaking, everything hidden in the cloak and cloth stick was shaken out in the same direction.
More than a dozen barbed blades came out of the rags, flew flat and far away, and were nailed to those bamboo stands.
There is no longer a thunderbolt hidden in the cloak, but even if it is, with the gentle flick of the hand just now, the thunderbolt will not have time to explode and will be shot far away.
Long Wuchang's eyelids twitched and he blurted out: "Take the Qi to become soft, and practice Qi to achieve great success?!"
Qi training is a very special one among the four major exercises.
The mastery of muscles, bones, and skin all requires arduous training. It can be said that it is a mastery that belongs exclusively to martial artists, but the mastery of Qi training is not only seen in martial arts practitioners.
Monks, Taoist priests, scholars, and even some rural people who plant rice seedlings, tread water and dig fields, may also experience the state of "qi training" in their ordinary lives.
If the muscles, bones, and skin are the foundation, raising the upper limit of human physical fitness, and pursuing increasing strength, then the main purpose of Qi training is to pursue the control of limbs and strength.
From the time a person is born, every period of study, work, and every exertion of force is a damage to his body. Even if he does nothing and just maintains this posture, the weight of the human body will also cause damage to his body. cause damage.
Because of this, human life span will be greatly reduced, and hundreds of diseases related to bone deformation and muscle damage will occur.
Take the human neck bones as an example. As long as a person's neck tilts forward by less than one-third, the muscles and bones of the neck will bear a huge burden at the same time, which is equivalent to having a seven or eight-year-old child all the time. It's so heavy to ride on top of your head.
However, those who have mastered qi training see the five internal organs as one, and see no distinction between flesh and blood. When the state is stable, they can distribute the weight and pressure they receive to every part, just like the whole body, especially the head, neck, shoulders, and waist. Freed from the shackles of life.
This is how you stay healthy, this is how you get freedom.
In boxing theory, only this truly relaxed and free state can achieve the essence of emptiness and softness.
Guan Luoyang clenched his teeth tightly, holding one end of the tattered cloak with his hand, and pushed his body forward like a pulley. His hands were like pushing and torturing clothes. With one click, he folded the cloak into half length and wrapped it around Long Wuchang's neck.
Long Wuchang shrank his neck, arched his shoulder blades back, and his arms had been brought to his chest at some point. His hands were placed on his neck and inserted into the gap between the cloak. The cloak around his neck was twisted around his body, and he swung his arms and bumped his elbows.
The distance was too close, the changes were too rapid, and neither side had time to dodge.
Guan Luoyang was hit by an elbow on the shoulder, and he also punched Long Wuchang in the stomach.
This punch uses cold and crisp energy that penetrates the back and can penetrate a person's stomach.
But when it hit Long Wuchang, it seemed like it had hit the trembling drum head.
A thud.
The two men stepped away.
Guan Luoyang's clothes were already quite torn, and there was a small patch of damage on his shoulders, but there wasn't much of a difference.
The two layers of clothes on Long Wuchang's body, from the collarbone to the belt, were all torn to pieces. Several rags, the blades hidden in his arms, steel nails, and some small objects of unknown purpose fell to the ground. .
This is because the force of Guan Luoyang's punch he just dispersed, without invading the body, spread all over his clothes, causing such great damage.
He is also a master of Qi training! No wonder he dares to carry something like a thunderbolt with him.
"Your qi training is not stable yet, but it seems that you have already mastered skin training. Gee, you can be regarded as a master who has achieved the second level of training. It is really rare."
Long Wuchang laughed sinisterly, "If you're not a master, I won't kill you."
As soon as his feet floated, the person was in front of Guan Luoyang. His back was like a tiger crouching to explore its claws, and his arms were like a green dragon fetching water. This move was light and elegant, and it was so real that it could tear off the person's entire face, belt, and eyeballs. .
Guan Luoyang stepped back and used the Crane Fist to strike short and hard. Facing Long Wuchang, it was like a dragon and a tiger rising and falling, kicking up and down, and grabbing things. He defended tightly without losing anything, his mouth and nose screamed, and his lower abdomen shook. His eyes were fixed on Long Wuchang's movements without blinking.
With six years of foundation and the instructor's unabashed guidance, Guan Luoyang was able to reach the state of perfect Qi training in the life-or-death duel with Kuai Dao.
Entering this state again just now was also a bit of luck.
But when the punch hit Long Wuchang without reservation, the feeling in his heart suddenly became stronger.
The instructor's words and deeds are of course important, but the instructor has injuries to begin with, and he cannot use it unscrupulously to show off his perfect Qi skills in boxing.
And the person in front of me...
Guan Luoyang's eyes widened more and more energetically, his crane fist changed into an Arhat, his short punch changed into a long punch, he stepped on a trap and moved it ten meters away.
Long Wuchang had a claw in front of him, and his whole body seemed to be flying after the claw.
The footprints he left on the ground were very shallow, but the speed and distance he moved were no less than Guan Luoyang's heavy kick just now.
Guan Luoyang turned around and swept his fists. In the blink of an eye, he took in the faint footprints on the ground and the flying Long Wuchang at the same time.
The virtual spirit is strong, the energy penetrates the heavenly spirit...that's what it means!
It was as if a spark exploded in my brain.
Guan Luoyang's body swayed, and the agility that was still intermittent suddenly accelerated, as if it was the center of gravity of his body. At this moment, it became something he could play with at will.
Great success in Qi training, great success in skin training.
A unique move that belongs to the master of second level practice, it comes out easily.
There was an explosion in the air, and Long Wuchang was knocked out like a ball.
He rolled over like a black cat in mid-air and landed nimbly. But the moment his hands and feet were on the ground at the same time, he felt a heartbreaking pain in his right hand that had just touched the opponent's fist.
The flesh on the palm of his hand was directly torn apart by the opponent's punch just now, and blood flowed freely.
What's even more uncomfortable is that a numb and painful feeling spreads to the entire right arm, as if even the shoulder is numb.
"What's this?!"
"Second practice of artillery hammering."
Guan Luoyang's body appeared next to Long Wuchang along with these words.
Long Wuchang's eyes were startled, his belly trembled, and his waist and spine burst with strength. He was about to turn sideways and hide away like a civet catching a mouse.
But Guan Luoyang flipped his right hand together and smashed the back of his hand down. The afterimage in the air hit his body in the air as fast as the sound of thunder.
With just one blow, all the strength in his body was dispersed, causing him to be thrown out like a sack and roll on the ground several times.
The crushing feeling coming from the shoulder blades caused Long Wuchang's smooth and high-speed breathing to be released along with the blood between his mouth and nose.
"Second Trainer... It's impossible. I met him ten years ago, and Second Trainer can't keep me..."
"That's because you don't know enough."
Guan Luoyang kicked him on the back of the head.
Only then did he dare to change the Crane Fist into the Arhat Chang Fist, and he slowly exhaled the breath he took in when he did so.
In fact, a boxer who has reached the Dacheng level in kung fu may not necessarily have Dacheng level boxing moves. Zhu Changshou is a typical example.
Although they continue to use the previous moves, their power will be correspondingly improved, but in order to fully utilize the advantages after Dacheng, it will take a long time to explore and modify.
Guan Luoyang was different. He had the most essential part of the manuscript that a dozen or so great boxers from the Jinmen Alliance gathered together to communicate.
Such selfless exchanges between the northern and southern boxing schools were something that even the Manchus and the Qing Dynasty were unable to achieve when they burned down the southern Shaolin. It contains some records that they merged and studied from their own schools and became unique in their second practice.
Among them, the one that is suitable for the mastery of the second training of skin training and Qi training is the "Three Emperors' Chain of Strength, Arhat's Hand Hammer".
