Chapter 14 Dragon and Snake Joint Attack

"Xingyiquan's posture and boxing frame are the simplest, with five ways to generate power and twelve body techniques. Although the posture is simple, the principle is very profound, and it can be divided into two methods: fighting and training. However, it is different from Baguazhang in that Bagua mainly goes around the body, attacks the side of the person, and pokes the ribs and kidneys. Xingyiquan, on the other hand, is about grabbing the center line of the person, hitting the chest and face, advancing and hitting hard, breaking through the middle, and killing the enemy in one fell swoop." "Xingyiquan's posture and boxing frame are the simplest, with five ways to generate power and twelve body techniques.

Xingyiquan is about grabbing the center line of the person, hitting the chest and face, advancing and hitting hard, breaking through the middle, and killing the enemy in one fell swoop."

Tang Zichen first talked about the basic differences between Xingyiquan and Baguazhang, and then practiced the boxing frame.

"Look carefully, there are five fist postures. The first is the chopping fist: the power is similar to the chopping and abstraction in Baguazhang, it should be like chopping wood with a wheel axe. The second is the collapsing fist: the power should be stabbed and thrusted out like a bayonet or a gun. The third is the drilling fist. When the power is applied, the fist should have a shaking force, like a poisonous snake suddenly jumping up and shaking its head to bite people. The fourth is the cannon fist. There should be an explosive force. When the power is applied, the roots of the whole body should jump violently, as if the cannonball is fired from the air. The fifth is the horizontal fist, which is a close-fitting fist. Like the backhand palm, it uses a throwing force! The whole body is thrown, and as long as the person is close to you, he will be thrown out. This contains the wrestling method."

Tang Zichen practiced the five fist postures one by one, and then instructed Wang Chao how to use the waist and legs to exert force in each fist posture. After Wang Chao practiced them one by one, he really felt that the moves were very simple.

"The splitting fist originally evolved from the sword technique, and Bagua is also a sword. If you have the foundation of Baguazhang, it is not difficult to practice. The only difference is that you need to think about the power of the other four fist techniques. Let me practice it first." After saying that, Tang Zichen stepped lightly and stood on a large water tank half a person's height. He moved his feet lightly, put his fist under his ribs, turned his tiger's mouth outward, and suddenly punched out. Chi! The whole sandbag was poked by Tang Zichen's fist, and a hole suddenly broke, and the sand inside flowed out instantly. The material of the sandbag is a very thick double-layer canvas, which has been soaked in oil and is difficult to cut through with a knife. However, Wang Chao thought that this was nothing. If Tang Zichen couldn't even pierce this sandbag, Wang Chao would feel strange. "This is the collapsing fist, which is like an arrow, a gun, or a bayonet." Tang Zichen said, "Look at my cannon fist!"

As he spoke, Tang Zichen stepped on his feet, and the whole person seemed to be much taller. He punched down, as if he was hitting from the air, and hit the sandbag hard.

Boom! The whole sandbag seemed to be filled with explosives, and it exploded, and countless gravel splashed in all directions. Wang Chao quickly closed his eyes, but his mouth was open, and a lot of sand went in.

When the sand subsided, Wang Chao vomited non-stop.

"Drilling fist belongs to water, also known as turning waves. When a poisonous snake is about to bite, its head shakes. When you are careless, it will bite you to death. So when practicing, you must practice this shaking force."

Tang Zichen practiced again and suddenly punched out. His fist was like a snake entering a hole. Before Wang Chao could see clearly, Tang Zichen's whole arm had been inserted into the sandbag. His fist came out from the other side of the sandbag. He actually drilled the sandbag through, but the sand did not flow out at all.

"As for the horizontal fist, I have already told you. It is to shake the ball, shaking the whole body. The horizontal fist is the mother of the five Xingyi fists. You have to experience the shaking force carefully."

After Tang Zichen practiced the five fists, he asked Wang Chao to practice step by step.

So Wang Chao's daily homework has one more subject. During the day, he practiced the five Xingyi fists, still integrating the three-body style, slowly maintaining health, and at night, he used his strength to hit the sandbag violently.

However, this time, he didn't jump onto the water tank to hit the sandbag, but on the flat ground.

Sure enough, when practicing the boxing posture during the day, Wang Chao felt that the power of Xingyi boxing was extremely strong. Every time he punched, the body emitted much more energy than Bagua.

If it weren't for the previous Bagua foundation, Wang Chao would not be able to close his pores.

But just like that, after practicing day and night for half a month, Wang Chao only felt that when his lower abdomen was inflated, it was as hard as a piece of iron.

Especially when the center of gravity shifted and stimulated the coccyx, the hair on his body stood up straight, and the goose bumps were like raised iron sand!

The fist bones of his hands also slowly began to flatten, and his fists were all calloused from hitting the sandbags.

At the same time, the ligaments of Wang Chao's legs were also very strong. He could reach his head with just a lift.

However, this leg skill was mostly due to walking on the water tank for half a year, and practicing from the pain of being half-dead from falling. The bones of his waist and legs also became strong from falling.

However, Wang Chao's ability to perform well was largely due to Tang Zichen. If Tang Zichen hadn't been watching, Wang Chao would have fallen to death or gone to the hospital on the first day he stepped on the water tank.

Half a month later, Tang Zichen taught Wang Chao the twelve body techniques of Xingyi, including dragon, tiger, monkey, horse, chicken, kite, swallow, snake, crocodile, eagle, and bear.

"Xingyi has two sets of boxing techniques, one for generating strength and one for body techniques. In the future, in combat, combined with actual combat, everyone will have their own understanding and form their own school."

Tang Zichen asked Wang Chao to practice the twelve forms for a full month, and explained the various changing postures, the key points of conversion, and the adjustment of strength.

After Wang Chao learned the twelve forms, he felt that the changes in boxing techniques gradually became more complicated.

However, Tang Zichen did not let Wang Chao continue to practice. After a month, he said, "You can practice and comprehend the twelve forms by yourself in the future. I will teach you Tai Chi now!"

Tang Zichen walked to the weapon rack, stretched out his hand, and pulled out a spear.

This spear is very thick and long, and is two heads taller than a person. "In the ancient battlefield, the spear technique was used to match the charge of horses, and one could defeat a hundred. In boxing, whether it is Xingyi, Taiji, or Baji, shaking the spear is the most important part. Every master of ancient Xingyi formed his own school. What he looked at was the final combined attack killer. If you get that combined attack, you get the true teachings of that lineage."

"Back then, the killer of Shang's Xingyi of Shang Yunxiang's lineage was the bear-eagle combined attack. The boxing of my lineage is the dragon-snake combined attack, and the dragon-snake combined attack. It is a horse, and the snake is a spear. In ancient myths and legends, the horse is the incarnation of the dragon. The horse is equipped with a spear, and the dragon and snake rise together, killing hundreds of people is like cutting grass. "

"Taijiquan is the simplest martial arts in the world, with only two moves, one is the dark power pile, and the other is to listen to the power of others and use it to fight back. This listening is not listening with ears, but listening with pores! What about the Jade Girl Shuttle, the Sparrow Tail and other postures, are all used by Yang Luchan to fool a group of dignitaries and high officials in the capital. "

Tang Zichen said: "Now you look carefully, all the essence of my things is in my dragon and snake attack. "
