Chapter 10 The Advanced Skills in Tai Chi Push Hands

After Tang Zichen stretched out the one-foot-long golden needle, he shook his hand, and the golden needle suddenly pierced into Wang Chao's elbow joint like a loach drilling a hole. As Tang Zichen's right thumb and middle finger rubbed the tail of the golden needle, the one-foot-long golden needle actually penetrated into the flesh for seven or eight points. After Tang Zichen stretched out the one-foot-long golden needle, he shook his hand, and the golden needle suddenly pierced into Wang Chao's elbow joint like a loach drilling a hole. As Tang Zichen's right thumb and middle finger rubbed the tail of the golden needle, the one-foot-long golden needle actually penetrated into the flesh for seven or eight points.

Wang Chao was frightened, but he didn't feel any pain at all even though the golden needle penetrated so much. Instead, he felt a little bit of coolness and comfort wandering on his arm.

It wasn't until the needle had been inserted for half an hour that Tang Zichen shook his hand again and quickly pulled the needle out, still wrapped around his finger as a ring. At this time, Wang Chao's arm seemed to have regained some of its original senses, but the purple-black bruises and lumps still did not dissipate.

After Tang Zichen collected the golden needle, he did not stop. He suddenly grabbed and lifted Wang Chao's entire injured arm, and rubbed the bruises and lumps on the elbow joint with his other hand.

This time, Wang Chao felt that there seemed to be a slight electric current in the middle of Tang Zichen's palm. Every time he rubbed, the nerves in the skin and muscles jumped.

Gradually, wet sweat flowed down from the rubbing place. Wang Chao knew that it was the sweat brought by the dark power in the palm of his hand.

The dark power emitted by Tang Zichen rushed out from the pores of the palm of his hand and penetrated into the bruises in Wang Chao's arm.

Gradually, the purple-black bruises and bruises gradually faded. In the end, Wang Chao's entire arm and fist seemed to be fished out of the water, and they were all wet with sweat brought by Tang Zichen's dark power.

"Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm..." At this time, Wang Chao heard a deep and subtle sound, like the reverberation of thunder in the sky slowly rolling across the sky.

"Where does the sound come from?" Wang Chao paid attention and found that Tang Zichen's joints were trembling slightly, and the sound of the trembling joints was connected into a subtle piece, and finally gathered into the deep reverberation of thunder.

"Okay! Rest for half a day and everything will be fine. There is no need to rub the medicine, let it heal naturally. Medicine is three-tenths toxic and must be excreted through the kidneys. Too much medicine will hurt the kidneys, whether it is taken orally or applied externally."

After rubbing, Tang Zichen sighed for a long time. At this time, the lumps on Wang Chao's arms and fists disappeared, leaving only some faint red marks.

"Sister Chen, you sweat so much on your palms..." Wang Chao murmured.

"An Jin is very physically demanding. If your martial arts skills are not up to the level of Yi Sui, you cannot use An Jin too much, otherwise your heart will fail quickly and your body will collapse within a few years."

"What is Yi Sui?" Wang Chao asked. Although Tang Zichen told Wang Chao about Ming Jin, An Jin, Hua Jin, and the principle of "Qi" in the park two months ago, he had never heard of Yi Sui.

After hearing this, Tang Zichen nodded, but did not answer immediately. He just pressed a button on the armrest of the sofa. After a while, a servant appeared at the door and asked the servant to bring a large basin of warm water and a towel. Tang Zichen washed his hands and then asked Wang Chao to wash his arms.

"Go down, there's no need to take the water out." Tang Zichen ordered. After the servant left, he said to Wang Chao, "Come, take the water out and put it on the grass in the garden."

Wang Chao immediately picked up the basin of water and followed Tang Zichen out of the villa and came to the grass in the garden in front of the house.

"From today on, I will formally teach you Chinese martial arts." Tang Zichen saw Wang Chao standing up, and her expression turned cold. Wang Chao felt that his usually kind sister suddenly seemed to have changed into a different person, with a sharp and cold aura all over her body. Wang Chao had only seen this feeling once in a while, when he saw leopards and tigers hunting in the zoo, but it was far less intense than Tang Zichen's.

"Until now, I think you are also very curious about your sister's origins, right?" Tang Zichen said.

"Yeah." Wang Chao nodded, and wanted to ask in his heart, but he had a strong premonition that if he asked, he would lose the most precious thing. Some things are better to be kept in the dark forever.

"Fortunately you didn't ask before, if you had asked, I might not have taught you." As expected, Tang Zichen said, "The world I live in is not what you can imagine, nor is it what you can touch. I came to the mainland this time just occasionally. When I met you before, I taught you something to see if you have the qualifications. But you have practiced something, so you are qualified. I left my things on the mainland to find a legacy, so as not to be cut off one day, which would be a pity." Wang Chao suddenly felt a panic: "Sister Chen, are you going to leave after teaching me?" "Yes. After teaching you, I will leave. From today on, you will learn whatever I teach you. Except for things about boxing, don't ask anything and don't talk too much. If you ask one more question, I will take back everything I taught you." Tang Zichen glanced at the distance. Wang Chao saw this expression and knew that it was not trivial. Although he didn't know how Tang Zichen would take back the things if he talked too much, he vaguely felt that it was a very bad thing, and nodded quickly. "Okay, I'll say it in advance. Now I'll tell you the realms of boxing." Tang Zichen said, "Boxing has three realms, three training methods, and three steps of skills. The three realms are refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, and refining spirit into emptiness. I have already told you the principle of refining essence into qi, and as for refining qi into spirit, you have vaguely touched it now. You used to be introverted and timid, but since you started practicing boxing, you have become bolder. Boxing can change a person's personality, making a timid person bolder, and a hot-tempered person introverted and deep, and cultivate a person's temperament and disposition. This is the realm of refining qi into spirit. As for refining spirit into emptiness..." Tang Zichen thought for a while: "The realization of the realm of life , is something I have realized step by step in life. It is easy to talk about realms in vain, which is false, big, and empty, so I will not talk about realms with you. Boxing finally comes down to the actual practice, talking about training methods and kung fu. "

"I have already told you what the three training methods of Ming Jin, An Jin, and Hua Jin are. As for the three steps of kung fu, they are Yi Gu, Yi Jin, and Yi Sui, which are to train bones, tendons, and bone marrow respectively. The first two steps of kung fu, bones, tendons, and muscles are easy to train, but bone marrow is the most difficult to train. Boxing that breaks through the first two steps of training methods is just a martial arts master. To truly reach the level of being divine and reborn through martial arts, you must have the third step of Yi Sui kung fu. . "

"Well, the bone marrow is responsible for blood production. Training the bone marrow is equivalent to a complete blood transfusion of the whole body, which means a complete transformation." Wang Chao listened very seriously and understood carefully, "Then how can we train the kung fu into the bone marrow?"

Tang Zichen said: "Use the vibration of sound to train. You have to pay attention. This sound is not emitted from the mouth, nor is it the rotation of the air in the abdomen. Instead, after the kung fu is well practiced, you can freely control every bone, muscle, skin, and internal organs in your body to vibrate slightly and regularly. All the vibration sounds gather together and sound as if thunder is rolling in the sky. This is the 'Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound'. "

Tang Zichen Chen thought about it and explained the tiger and leopard thunder sound more perfectly: "Have you read Zhuangzi's article "Pao Ding butchers the Ox"? In it, when Pao Ding butchers the ox, he shakes the bones of the ox with a knife, and all the sounds are combined into a beautiful music. The meaning is very profound, and there is a principle of health preservation in it. There is also the sound of ringing bells in temples. After the bell rings, the lingering sound is the slight vibration of the whole bell. When the thunder passes through the sky, all the air vibrates together."

"Evening drums and morning bells are thought-provoking and reborn. This is basically the principle. Come! Give me both hands!"

Wang Chao stretched out his two hands and let Tang Zichen grab his ten fingers.

A strange thing happened. As soon as Tang Zichen grabbed Wang Chao's ten fingers, Wang Chao's whole body immediately trembled unconsciously like a puppet. At first, the trembling amplitude was large, but then Tang Zichen exerted force slightly, and the amplitude became smaller and smaller. Then, Wang Chao stood there, and all the bones in his body rang slightly, converging into the same tiger and leopard thunder sound as Tang Zichen just did.

After shaking for half an hour, Tang Zichen suddenly let go, and Wang Chao only felt that his bones seemed to fall apart, soft and without any strength.

"I'm forcing him to grow, but there's not much time left. I have to go back as soon as possible. This is the only way to help him test his strength, otherwise I won't be able to teach him everything." Tang Zichen thought to himself.

"Hush!" Wang Chao let out a long breath, "Sister Chen, how come I can't control my body when you put your hand on me just now."

Tang Zichen said: "This is the superior skill of Tai Chi push hands. When you put your hand on me, I can feel every bone of yours and instantly break your center of gravity, making you lose your balance. The joints of a person are connected one by one, like many levers. If you press one end, the other end will rise. When you have high skills, when you press your hand, your feet will be pulled up and automatically jump out. It's not my own strength, but your own strength that bounces you. This is the principle of four ounces to move a thousand pounds."

Tang Zichen said, and grabbed Wang Chao's leg and pressed it again. Wang Chao immediately felt that his legs bent uncontrollably and jumped back and fell on the grass.

"Why did I jump by myself!" Wang Chao got up and patted his butt, feeling a little depressed and confused.

"Okay, I just tried your strength and explained the reasoning to you, so that you could feel how the Tiger and Leopard Thunder Sound vibrates. Your bones, tendons, and muscles are not well-trained now, so you can't shake by yourself, and it's impossible to shake out the Thunder Sound. If you force yourself to shake, you will lose your strength. The Tai Chi Push Hands I used just now is a technique that can only be used when you have a certain level of understanding of the human body and have a precise grasp of strength."

"Come, I will teach you the basics now, step by step!" Tang Zichen said, "I will teach you Bagua Palm first!"
