Modern: I prove the supernatural as a mortal

Chapter 5 Tai Chi

afternoon.

Tang Li sat in the living room, looking up the information.

"Tai Chi Chuan is based on the core ideas of Tai Chi and Yin-Yang dialectics in traditional Chinese Confucianism and Taoism. It is a kind of traditional Chinese boxing formed by the ancient Daoyin technique and breathing technique, which is both internal and external, soft, slow, light and agile, and combined with hardness and softness."

"There are many schools of traditional Taijiquan. The common schools of Taijiquan include Chen's, Yang's, Wu's, He's and other schools. Each school not only has inheritance relationship, learns from each other, but also has its own characteristics. It is in a state of blooming."

……

……

"It turns out that there are so many ways of Taijiquan."

Tang Li pondered in his eyes.

He checked a lot of materials related to Taijiquan to understand the history and inheritance of Taijiquan.

He also learned about Tai Chi through illustrations and videos.

There are many versions of Taijiquan circulating on the Internet, but the Taijiquan practiced by Ke Yiyang seems to be somewhat different from these versions.

……

The next day, at 7 o'clock in the morning.

Tang Li came to the gazebo.

In the bamboo forest, Ke Yiyang was already practicing boxing.

Still wearing a white exercise uniform, the steps flowed like clouds and flowing water, round after round, like water flowing, endlessly.

Watching Ke Yiyang practice boxing, Tang Li confirmed and compared it with the video circulating on the Internet.

Compare the two.

Ke Yiyang's fist, faintly, seems to have a unique and mysterious artistic conception.

After a few moments.

Ke Yiyang retracted his fists and stood up, lifted the water glass, drank a few sips of water, and looked at Tang Li.

"Son of the Tang family, are you really interested in Taijiquan?" Ke Yiyang asked.

Tang Li looked at Ke Yiyang and said, "Master Ke, I want to learn Tai Chi from you, is that okay?"

"Oh?" Ke Yiyang raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said, "You want to learn Taijiquan from me? Learning boxing doesn't happen overnight. If you get too hot in three or two days, you can't learn boxing well. Today's young people, no Are you busy watching videos and playing games? If you want to learn boxing, how long can you learn and can you persist? "

Tang Li said: "Don't worry, old man, I will study hard."

Ke Yiyang looked at Tang Li and said, "Okay, at this time tomorrow, I'll wait for you in the bamboo forest."

"Thank you, Mr. Ke." Tang Li said happily.

"I hope you're not just talking."

Ke Yiyang carried the water glass, put the cloth bag on his shoulder, and left the bamboo forest.

……

"Braking with stillness, overcoming rigidity with softness, avoiding reality and emptiness, using strength to exert force."

"Follow others to live, let oneself stagnate."

"Introduce chemical co-development, follow the trend and change the path..."

In the hall of the small building, Tang Li further looked up the information on Taijiquan.

Before learning boxing with Ke Yiyang, he also wanted to make more preparations.

Then, Tang Li called up the property panel again.

[Sequence/breath]: Lv.1
……

【Name】: Tang Li
[Physical body/physique]: 11.5
【Spirit】: 10.7

[Technology]: None

[Attribute Points]: 0.8
Today, Tang Li's body/physique has reached 11.5.

Spirit 10.7.

The attribute points have also accumulated to 0.8.

Looking at the attribute points, Tang Li thought about it.

"Assignment."

[Practice]: Secret Storage · Breathing Training Guide (Proficiency 8/500)

Tang Li assigned 0.6 points of attribute value to the channeling technique.

His understanding and mastery of the Secret Store·Tuna training guide has also been promoted to the level of proficiency.

Practice is the foundation of everything.

With the deeper understanding and mastery of Daoyin, the effect of practice will become more significant.

……

……

The morning sun poured down, and another morning was ushered in.

At around 6 o'clock in the morning, Tang Li had already arrived at the gazebo, waiting for Ke Yiyang's arrival.

He sat on the spot, exhaling.

Now, his understanding and control of the guidance technique has reached the level of proficiency, and the breathing and breathing are natural, coincident with the rhythm, and seem to be naturally integrated with the surrounding world.

At 6:45, Ke Yiyang arrived in the bamboo forest with a cloth bag on his back and a water cup in his hand.

"Ok?"

Seeing Tang Li sitting on the spot in the gazebo, Ke Yiyang raised his eyebrows slightly, as if surprised and curious.

"Good morning, Mr. Ke." Tang Li stood up and said to Ke Yiyang.

"Morning." Ke Yiyang nodded, put the cloth bag and water cup on the stone platform, and said, "Young man, it seems that you really want to learn Taijiquan. Well, I will give you a complete rehearsal and I will practice it." Learn Taijiquan, let's see how much you can understand."

"My set of boxing evolved from the original style of Taijiquan. It combines Hunyuan, Changquan, and even fighting skills. There are thirteen styles in total. Control the boxing with the mind, come first after the attack, combine the virtual and the real, dense as Circle, the turnover does not stop."

Ke Yiyang rolled up his sleeves and began to practice boxing.

"Using the heart to move the qi, make it calm, and then it can be restrained into the bone. Use the qi to move the body, and make it follow suit, so that it can be convenient and follow the heart. If the spirit can be raised, there will be no danger of heaviness. The so-called hanging on the top of the head; It has to be changed to be flexible, and there is a sense of roundness and liveliness, which is called transformation into emptiness."

……

"To exert energy, you must be calm and quiet, and focus on one side. Standing upright, you must be upright and comfortable, and support all sides. Qi movement is like a nine-curved pearl, meticulous. Movement is like steel made with hundreds of thousands of pieces. It is indestructible. The shape is like a swan fighting a rabbit, and the spirit is like A cat that catches mice. Quiet like a mountain, moving like a river, storing energy like drawing a bow, and firing energy like releasing an arrow. Seek straightness in the song, store it and release it later.”

……

……

Ke Yiyang explained the theory of boxing.

The bamboo leaves scattered on the ground followed his steps to practice boxing, flipped and danced, and then flew away.

"call--"

A few moments later, Ke Yiyang exhaled lightly, and stood up with his fists back.

"How about it, how much do you remember?"

Ke Yiyang looked at Tang Li and asked.

Tang Li thought for a while and said, "It's not bad, I roughly remembered something."

Ever since his spirit has improved and his mind is clear, Tang Li's memory is also much better than before.Recalling the process of Ke Yiyang's boxing practice, many boxing styles, and changes, gathered into pictures, and then emerged.

"it is good."

"Follow me and practice again."

Ke Yiyang said.

Immediately, he stretched his hands forward, bent his right foot and tapped lightly, forming a fist fight.

Tang Li also imitated Ke Yiyang, stretching out his hands, one in front of the other, bending his knees and sinking his elbows, posing the starting hand of Tai Chi.

"Traditional martial arts are aimed at self-cultivation, with mind first."

"What Taijiquan really pursues is not to overwhelm people with martial arts and defeat the enemy, but to constantly explore one's own potential through practicing martial arts, feel the nature of heaven and earth, and even pursue the artistic conception of the unity of heaven and man."

Tang Li followed Ke Yiyang and practiced Taijiquan step by step. At first, he was a bit jerky, but gradually, he became proficient from restraint.One old and one young, stepping and tossing in the bamboo forest, the bamboo leaves fluttering, turning up and down, faintly, there seems to be an invisible spirit that runs through the whole time.

Feel the breath around you.

Circle after circle.

endlessly.

Dense and clean.

And like flowing water.

Tang Li felt the mystery of Tai Chi.
