Chapter Five Walking
Zhu Jian heard that something was wrong, and they all cast suspicious glances at Luo Hulu.
Wei Lingchuan stood beside him and was swept away by the residual light of the swords. His face was very uncomfortable. He quickly winked to stop him.
Luo Hulu was unmoved. He continued with a smile on his face: "...he is a rising star in the world. I have heard in the public that the wise brother chopped Chi Zhengrong in Shanxi and chopped Xi Haoxiong in half. Single sword vs. big sword. Fight against Mingcheng Jun. He kills Juhao Pavilion and makes the rats flee. He then goes to Datong with Mr. Qin to help guard the border. He jumps into the city at night to explode the pile of corpses. He sacrifices his life and forgets his life. Hundreds of cavalry charge into the camp and drive the herds of animals. Destroyed the stronghold, bombarded the Chinese army, and knocked out the enemy generals Bozhigud and Sukhbashou with one move. He was worthy of picking off the head of the old thief Anda in the midst of an army of thousands of horses. It can be said that he is loyal and loyal. How courageous and heroic." Seeing Chang Sihao trying to speak, before he could speak, he stretched out his hand and pressed it slightly, and said first, "Young brother, you don't have to be humble. Such heroic deeds have long been spread throughout the streets and streets. I hear about them every time. .My heart can’t help but surge and my blood boils. I wish I could have known my good brother so early. I can ride with you side by side, drink wine in the wind, and conspire together. Today I have fulfilled my long-cherished wish. Haha. How lucky I am.”
His voice was bold and his smile was always warm. Chang Sihao felt something strange after hearing this.
Gao Yang, who had been listening to the side, laughed secretly. At this moment, his face showed some impatience. He said loudly: "People should not talk secretly. I despise this style of behavior the most." The left sentence means "heard in the public". The right sentence means "spread throughout the market." '. Returned to Baodui. Isn't it a hint that the folk rumors about him are very popular. It may not be true because of his reputation. Now in front of people. Since you are not convinced, go up and get advice. Why bother to be petty here and talk about this? Zero East and West.”
Tong Zhiyi, Jiang Shiyou and others looked at each other. They all seemed a little dissatisfied with him. Because Luo Hulu said something wrong. He was still a child. When he came like this, it became an irritation. A swordsman from Yuanbu met. The muscles on Luo Chengyuan's face were pulsing. He seemed a little confused. He spoke loudly: "Gao Yang, there is so much meaning in Hulu's words. You are drunk. Don't talk nonsense."
Gao Yang smiled and said, "Really?"
Luo Hulu laughed dryly and said: "When my nephew first said those words, he really had no other meaning in his heart. But when Uncle Gao mentioned it like this, my nephew was really a little naughty. Since Brother Chang Xian can do such amazing things, His deeds and his artistic skills must also be extraordinary. My little brother spends all day wandering around the capital without leaving home. He can be considered a frog in the well. His knowledge is extremely shallow. Dear brother, Uncle Zheng also said it just now. I want us to have more kisses. Recently, people who practice martial arts cannot get close to nature without reaching out and exchanging blows. If you don't fight, you won't know each other. It just so happens that all of your uncles are here. We are all masters of swordsmanship and masters of martial arts. How can a wise brother end up feeding a foolish brother with two moves? Let's do it. The elders here can give us some advice."
These words were very clever. They also led to Alliance Leader Zheng's words, which made it difficult to refute. Alliance Leader Zheng glanced at both sides. Although Zhu Jian's expression was unhappy, it seemed that no one wanted to say anything to smooth things over. It seemed that they all wanted to take a look at Chang Sihao's abilities. He couldn't help but frown slightly. The relationship between the Hundred Sword Alliance and the Qin family was there. Now he was the only one in the Qin family. Once a move was made, it would be easy to say or not. And Luo Luo Hu Lu's martial arts was passed down from his father. He is a few years older. He ranks first among the top ten swordsmen. He is a powerful master among the younger generations in the alliance. In terms of absolute strength, those girls are not as good as him. Even the girls here are not as good as him. Many swordsmen may not be his opponents. Although Chang Sihao has a great reputation, he has never really seen him take action. If something goes wrong, he will lose face and it will not look good on both sides. I thought of this and handed it to Luo Chengyuan. A look.
Gao Yang saw this and quickly gave Luo Hulu a look.
Luo Hulu could see clearly. He swung the scabbard of his left hand and took the first position to guard the door. He said: "The elders are all waiting. Brother Chang Xian, please come." Gao Yang raised his glass and laughed and said: "Okay, okay. It’s been many years since I’ve seen Uncle Qin’s elegant demeanor with the Snow Fighting Sword. Today is a good time to revisit the old days. It’s a feast for the eyes. Xiao Chang, it’s up to you.”
Jiang Shiyou smiled and said: "Alliance leader, it is not appropriate to use weapons during the banquet. Let them walk around. It's okay to help them enjoy the wine."
Luo Chengyuan hummed. He found this second-best solution acceptable. He said: "Walking does not harm your harmony, and it can also prove your martial arts. Since the leader of the alliance, Hu Lu, is interested, let the children play." ." He turned to Chang Sihao and said, "What do you think, my dear nephew?"
Chang Sihao had a look of hesitation on his face. He bowed his head and said, "My nephew, I have to obey my orders. It's just..." Gao Yang thought he was timid and said in a loud voice, "It's just that. A man, please speak and do things more cheerfully." Leader Zheng hurriedly extended his words. She pressed her palm towards him, signaling him to stop making trouble. He said, "Nephew Chang Xian has drunk a lot of wine. It's okay not to compete today."
Chang Sihao smiled: "That's not true. I'm ashamed to say it. My nephew really doesn't know what 'walking' means."
As soon as these words came out, the whole crowd was in an uproar. Luo Hulu heard that the boss was unwilling to change the fight to Xingbu. At this moment, he even put a trace of sarcasm on his lips: "Young brother, you are joking. Xingbu is the best for martial arts practitioners." Basic lessons. How can you, my virtuous brother, not know the truth?"
Chang Sihao said: "I really don't know."
Leader Zheng heard him talk about his martial arts experience last night. He immediately reacted. He knew that although he was capable of actual combat, he knew little about theory and law. What he said was not a lie, nor was he trying to shirk the fight. He hurriedly explained: "It's just walking. The upper body does not move. The lower body advances and retreats to dodge. Use footwork to seize position and block the position. You can make a slight attack, but do not actually do it. Beginners of martial arts must practice it first to find the sense of distance when fighting with others. And sensitivity to the enemy, cleverness."
Chang Sihao thought to himself: "It turns out that there are so many things to pay attention to in martial arts. When I fight, my life is at stake. I don't think I can't control the distance well."
Leader Zheng saw that Chang Sihao still looked confused. He further explained: "There is a saying in the boxing proverb: 'The hands are two doors. You rely on your legs to hit people.' Most people only think that this means that in a martial arts competition, you rely on your legs to kick. Hitting is more lethal. In fact, it is a pretense of making up proverbs to deceive laymen. Idiots who practice boxing and rely too much on literal meanings will not be able to practice real skills. Hitting people with the legs actually refers to footwork and body skills. You see, ordinary people twist first when walking. The shoulder changes direction. However, people who practice martial arts use their hips to lead their legs and lead their body with steps. They should be faster. They have the upper hand everywhere under their feet. They have a good body position and the enemy's weaknesses are all right in front of them. No matter how you fight, it will happen. "The movement of hands comes from being able to win people. Where does footwork and bodywork come from? Walking is its root." Chang Sihao nodded: "So that's it." Leader Zheng smiled and said: "This thing has two ends. Scholars use it to practice kung fu. But the masters have too much skill and often can't show mercy with their hands. So by walking around, you can judge the strength of the opponent. You don't have to use your hands, and you won't hurt your harmony."
Everyone here is a master of martial arts. They were all surprised to hear that Leader Zheng was explaining such simple introductory things to Chang Sihao in detail. I thought that this man's shoulders were slack and heavy, his body was as steady as a mountain, and his eyes were as bright as water. It is obvious that the yin and yang in the body and the internal strength are quite strong. How could he not know how to walk? He was trying to shirk the blame. Why did Alliance Leader Zheng take it seriously when he told him this?
However, Chang Sihao felt greatly benefited from hearing these words. He connected what Alliance Leader Zheng said with his own actual combat experience and immediately resonated. He thought: "Before I met old man Baofu, I was in the battle against the enemy soldiers. Although the fight lasted only a short time, I felt extremely tired and seriously injured. After learning the Tianji Steps, I could easily fight with others. I could avoid them and attack them. In the midst of an army of thousands of horses, I faced a forest of spears and halberds. Hai actually wasn't even injured at all. This is all the result of body and footwork." He looked at Luo Hu's shoes and thought: "What he said makes sense. Everyone here is a master of martial arts and a great swordsman. Master Baofu has disappeared and I can’t ask for advice. If I can get some advice from people like them, it will be much faster than self-enlightenment.” Thinking of this, he said to Leader Zheng, “Thank you, Uncle Zheng, for your advice. Then my nephew will take the test.” Please give me some advice from you and your uncles." After saying this, he shook his shoulders, threw off his coat, and strode off the table.
Luo Hulu had already put the scabbard back on his waist. Chang Sihao expected that Chang Sihao was pretending to be stupid to make himself feel contemptuous. He couldn't help but sneered. When the other party left his seat and came to the center of the hall, he stepped on the black matte floor. Only then did I realize that although this black guy was younger than me, he was actually more than half a head taller than me. He looked like a majestic mountain standing proudly, his face turned red.
Chang Sihao saw that he was a little distracted. He cupped his hands and said, "Brother Luo."
Luo Hulu said hurriedly: "Please." After saying this, his body sank slightly and his left foot slowly stretched forward.
Zhu Jian put down his wine glass and stared at the two figures. After a slight comparison, they both smiled involuntarily.
The postures of the two seem to be similar. One foot is in front and the other is behind. The body is slightly heavier. However, with the same stride length, the angle between Luo Hu's legs is obviously higher than that of Chang Sihao. Yuan. Just based on this small difference in posture, Chang Sihao has already lost to his grandma's house.
There is a saying in martial arts that round the crotch and roll the hip. The hip is the hub. The movement of the whole body is in it. Human limbs are very flexible. Only the hip bone is a dead lump. If you want to make it "alive", you must " "Opening the pelvis" means opening the pelvis. When ordinary people are born, the pelvis is in an open state. As they can walk upright, the pelvis will gradually grow and close. After adulthood, there is basically no hope of opening it again. However, martial arts practitioners can pass certain special conditions. This method allows the pelvis of the deceased to open again. This is also one of the characteristics of acquired reversion to innateness. This process is extremely painful. It is the same as a woman giving birth to a child.
In most people's minds, practicing martial arts at the age of seven or eight is considered boy's kung fu. In fact, it's all a joke. The real boy's kung fu occurs a hundred days after the child is born. The father, uncle, and elders hold the back of the neck with one hand and the buttocks with the other. .Put the flat ends together and knead them like a kitten. The purpose of this is to strengthen the spine and prevent the hip bones from growing together. Such children will learn to walk later than the average person. But they can skip it when practicing martial arts in the future. One hip. His body is much more flexible than ordinary people. Luo Hulu is a member of a real martial arts family. He is also an expert in swordsmanship. So as soon as he poses, everyone will understand that he has already won at the starting line.
There was silence in the pavilion. Chang Sihao and Luo Hulu looked at each other. They had no idea that they had already judged the outcome in their hearts.
At this time, the distance between the two people was about one foot and six feet. With Luo Hulu taking half a step forward, the distance between the two people had been shortened to within one foot and five feet, based on the position of his front feet.
No matter what kind of master, there must be a starting distance when launching an attack. If it is too far, it will be easy for the opponent to defend and the attack will fail.
This effective attack distance is called "circle" in jargon.
Luo Hulu knew it well. As soon as he took this half step, he was already in the circle. Within a radius of one to five feet, he was within his attack range.
The average person's attack distance is only one to two arms. One foot and five feet means that his speed is within this distance and can be faster than the enemy's reaction. Based on this alone, there may not be any top-notch master swordsmen in the world. How many people can do it.
He couldn't help but feel a little proud.
But he immediately became calm again, because he didn't know whether the other party had also "entered the circle." In order to prevent Chang Sihao from pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger, he decided to be more cautious and observe the situation.
Although Chang Sihao said please, he didn't know how to walk after all. His feet didn't move. But when he saw Luo Hulu's movements, it immediately penetrated his muscles and he could tell: his left foot was forward. He leaned out, but there was no intention of leaning forward. The whole weight was still concentrated on the hind feet. In other words, when he took this step, his front feet were weak, like a person stepping on ice. He carefully leaned forward. Road. The toes are lowered. It seems to be touching but not touching. This posture may seem simple, but it is quite clever. When you move forward, you will not lose the stability of the body due to the forward center of gravity. It is also quite easy and flexible to retract and retreat. You can also take a false step forward. Because it is not implemented, it can be quickly adjusted according to the direction of the enemy's movement. In terms of form, this is similar to Shen Chunan and when he did it himself. But it is obviously much calmer and more natural.
He has always been hands-on in combat. Suddenly, all his energy was focused on his feet. He was a little cautious. But seeing that his opponent's steps were plain and clever, and his posture was similar to his, he couldn't help but move his center of gravity back slightly, wanting to experience the state. What happened? At the moment when the bones were straightened, the two large tendons at the base of the thigh suddenly tensed up, and the body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
