What is the most practical kung fu in the world?

Here's an article I know about Wudang Kung Fu, please read it first.

1In mid-July, 1996, a film crew of Shanghai Film Studio filmed the film "He Long of Wudang Mountain" (the film is horrible, I wonder if you have seen it). Due to the sponsorship of many local martial arts schools in Wudang Mountain, the film crew dragged many students from the martial arts schools, including me and a brother named Lin.

That afternoon, a drama of the political staff of the Red Army was staged. The staff is played by young Mao Zedong. Brother Lin and I came to the shooting scene with our camera, hoping to take a photo with the actor (we are already familiar with this actor because we took some martial arts scenes a few days ago).

At about 2: 30 in the afternoon, my brother and I took time to take some scenic photos around the shooting scene. At this moment, it suddenly began to rain heavily. When we saw a temple nearby, we ran to take shelter from the rain. There was no one in the temple, so we stayed under the eaves at the door. There is a powerful and numerous mosquito in Wudang Mountain, which is called "droplets" by local people. This mosquito keeps flapping at our door.

After a while, the rain eased slightly, and a Taoist priest came slowly from the direction of the shooting scene, wearing a yellow robe and shoes and wearing a messy bun towards the temple. When we arrived at the door, he saw that we were tortured by mosquitoes and called us and said, "There are no mosquitoes in it. Come in and sit down. "

We followed this Taoist into the temple. After careful examination, we found that we had seen him more than once. When I first arrived at Wudang Mountain, Brother Lin and I saw him buy rice several times in the town, and it seemed very weak to walk with a bag of 30 kg of rice on his back. Every time my brother sees him from a distance, he can't help but smile and say to us, "It is said that Wudang Mountain is a sacred place of Wulin, and Taoist priests are all skilled. I don't think so. We're in the wrong place. Look at that Taoist priest. It's easier to fight than to shoot flies. " My elder brother just won the 65 kg Sanda championship in the province six months ago, and everyone laughed deeply.

Taoist priests are easy-going and talkative, and chat with us casually. During the conversation, we were surprised by the erudition of Taoist priests. I know almost everything about the classics of the three religions (because I just arrived in Wudang Mountain at that time, I was very novel about Taoist culture and read many books on religion). The desk is full of religious classics from all over the world. We asked some questions casually, and the Taoist priest could answer them one by one and patiently explain them to us.

The topic gradually shifted to martial arts. When the Taoist heard that Brother Lin was the top scholar in the province, he got up and smiled and offered to try his hand with him. Looking at the height 170, the long man with flabby muscles, my brother turned to me and made a spiteful expression. He looked back at the Taoist priest with a puzzled face. Taoist smiled and waved: "Never mind, just try." He got up and left his seat without posing. He casually put his hand behind his back and nodded. "Come on."

Brother has always wondered if this man really has kung fu. At this time, the other party invited himself to do it, so you're welcome. He made a preparatory gesture, waved his right jab, and then stepped forward and punched the Taoist priest. I saw the Taoist priest gracefully turn half a circle to the left, his hands made a circle, dancing like a fist, and his body had turned to the right side of the senior. The punch just passed him, and the distance between them was about a foot. At this time, the Taoist priest stretched out his right index finger and gently placed it on the right side of his brother's neck. His brother leaned back and stood still.

I was surprised not only by the wonderful posture of Taoist priest, but also by the rigidity of senior brother. You know, his championship title is not a hollow name, and his fist is fast and heavy. None of our fellow disciples is willing to be his sparring partner, let alone a formal confrontation.

I tried to get a better view when the Taoist priest said slowly, "Come down." With a slight retraction of his fingers, my brother looked up and fell backwards, but his feet didn't leave the ground. It looked like he was practicing the waist bridge. The Taoist priest said, "Get up!" My brother got up, too, and then leaned down involuntarily. The Taoist just put a finger on the right side of his neck, but it seemed to hold his head.

Then he let go of his embarrassed brother and motioned for him to come again. This time, my brother was a little impatient. When I lifted my foot, I kicked the Taoist priest in the head with my right whip, and the Taoist priest turned around and plunged into the middle line of my brother. At this time, my brother was still kicking his right leg in mid-air. Suddenly, his left leg, as a support, jumped up automatically and fell to the ground on his back. I don't know if it was covered by the cassock and I didn't see the Taoist hand at all! !

Then he asked me to try my hand with him, but he still put me in order. Then they attacked together. Even the next day, we invited six brothers with good kung fu to try with him, and he always threw me away in a few seconds. Detailed process is really a waste of chapters. Below I will introduce some of his kung fu classification and summary to everyone.

1. Stickiness: Let me talk about stickiness first because many people doubt the actual combat effect of Tai Ji Chuan. In the process of contact with the Taoist priest later, he showed us the stickiness several times. No matter how fast our fists are, he always draws a small circle with one hand and puts it on our forearm. His wrist was slightly hooked, and he didn't grab our arm with his fingers at all, but we couldn't get it back, and we couldn't move all over! You can imagine that if someone holds your hand with great strength and you want to pull it back, both of them have to work hard. But I can hardly feel his arm after being stuck for so long! ! No matter which direction you draw, the power you draw is empty, but the Taoist still talks to us with a smile and fiddles with our arms at will.

2. Posture: I dare say that people rarely see such incredible postures in movies! ! Take a broken side kick as an example. The Taoist priest first told the senior brother that any heavy kick can be resolved at will by this method, so the senior brother kicked and attacked with his right side several times in the fight. The Taoist took a half step to the left with his right foot and raised his right hand from the top of his head for half a circle, so his whole body clung to his brother's calf. Then he stepped out with his left foot, turned his body to the left, and put his back on his brother's thigh-the brother's leg was kicked first, and the Taoist priest did so many actions only once. ! Then he put his index finger on his brother's neck and gently drank "Go!" Brother fell flat on his side, no matter who attacked, it was the same result.

3. Leg method: This is definitely the fastest leg method I have ever seen. There is absolutely no such flexible leg method in modern martial arts! He kicked me nine times in a row with one leg, and I didn't even have a chance to guard against it! I was kicked all over, but I wasn't hurt! Some people may say that his legs are affectedly weak, right? If you hear him kicking around the scene, you won't ask again. Afterwards, I asked him to try a board (the long board of a sawmill). He swung his right leg slightly around his knee (about knee height) and the 4 cm thick board broke with a bang.

4. Manipulation: When it comes to manipulation, the first thing to say is his finger. His palm was soft and boneless, but he stretched out a finger and told us to pull. Unfortunately, neither of them can pull. You know the "Shadow Hand" in Fang Shiyu, right? -The Taoist dipped his finger in flour and pointed to the elder brother. Brother rushed up to parry but didn't even stop him. He was soon scratched with more than 30 white spots! Lao Li once lambasted the fake masters who performed "inch strength", saying that those "masters" often asked the subjects to stand with their legs parallel. Taoist priests are not. He told us to stand as firmly as possible, but he could push us back several steps with only one finger. Besides, he hardly uses boxing, so he advised us not to practice too much, because it would hurt ourselves. He said to us, "You won't get an elbow if you twist ten fists, a palm if you twist ten elbows, and a finger if you twist ten palms." His elbow technique can be changed a lot, and it changes quickly.

5. Fallen: The reason why we only say "fallen" instead of "fallen method" is because there is no "method"! ! When fighting with him, I was often thrown out, and once I fell, it was 3 meters away (which was merciful). We can only appreciate his wonderful moves, but it's really hard to understand how he threw us out. We only felt that we had been touched lightly. ...

6. Internal strength: When I met him, I found that we were all exhausted, but he still laughed and laughed, and his face was not red. He said that it is difficult for people who have really practiced internal skills to sweat, which is also conducive to maintaining physical fitness. However, most people practice horizontal gas. Although they can break bricks and gravel, they can't gain lasting endurance.

7. Muscle: His muscles may surprise some modern martial arts muscle theorists-he doesn't advocate muscle training at all, and his whole body is flabby. Even after he clenched his fist in a fighting way according to our requirements, even his deltoid muscle, which was the most difficult to loosen, was loose, but he could lift two people at the same time and withstand random punching and kicking.

8. Hidden weapons: When he talked to me about hidden weapons, we happened to be in the temple. He asked me to choose any word on the curtain in front of the statue as the target. After I chose, he stood 10 meters away, quickly pulled off the hair pin on his head and fired, hitting the target and going straight through the cloth! It turns out that his hair clasp is made of steel, and one end is very sharp-puzzling. According to the average person's idea, it should be the thick end that hits the target, which shows that his ability to launch hidden weapons is extraordinary.

He explained to us the principle of wudang boxing's martial arts: the most important point is "circle". No matter how fast we punch, hitting him doesn't work at all, not because he resists the blow, but because his own internal deflection draws away the future force-like water sprinkled on a high-speed rotating grinding wheel. Another point is "borrowing", hitting opponents or dragging opponents to lose their center of gravity and fall. Wudang boxing pays attention to "the latecomers come from the top", focusing on restricting each other's tactics and defeating the enemy with one move.

As for weapons, he said he was best at flogging, but unfortunately I didn't see it with my own eyes. Also worth mentioning is his amazing insight. No matter how we attack, even without warning, he can always control our offensive hands and feet when we first launch.

I still have many details about this experience. I was incoherent last time. Some friends say that this is a static braking effort, but Yuto's pursuit is not very good. I think maybe I didn't explain it clearly because I really don't know how to describe it. In short, he started with the six of us at the same time and took us all down in a few seconds without much effort. We couldn't believe it when we were in it. We thought we had entered Jin Yong's martial arts novels in our dreams! His leg fingering is also a unique skill, but there is no need to use it on us or hurt us. In addition, he can hold several of us with one hand as shown on TV, and rehearse and explain several moves of Tai Ji Chuan for us, which is even more incredible. Every move actually contains an unexpected killer weapon, which is absolutely different from other martial arts. His boxing seems to be slow, but in fact it is extremely fast, which may be due to his consistent boxing, which makes his opponents have such an illusion. His fist never hits us, and we only feel that our heels will rise from the ground, and we can't help falling out when we rub them lightly. Unfortunately, I was young and ignorant. After he promised to teach me some kung fu, I left Wudang Mountain because of my family's opposition (because it took me nearly two years to get nothing), but I was very grateful to him-I especially admired the "magic" performed by a "master" at that time, almost to the point of being possessed. Thanks to the guidance of the Taoist priest, he selflessly exposed all kinds of deception for me, so that I wouldn't go astray. Later, under his introduction, I was lucky enough to see the dust blowing kung fu of a Taoist priest in Jinding, Wudang Mountain. That was the first time I really saw that blowing dust can also be a weapon to defeat the enemy. Until now, every time I think of the Taoist priest's advice, I still admire it and appreciate it …

I stayed with him for a few days, but I never saw him practice. I couldn't help asking him out of curiosity. He said with a smile that I slept too deeply (blushing ... I was really shocked when I slept), because there is a rule in wudang boxing that "I would rather be lost than passed on lightly". Wudang Taoist priests usually practice boxing in the dead of night to prevent leaks, and even other disciples often keep secrets, so many of them don't know martial arts at all. That day, he told me cheerfully that he usually practiced sitting in Neidan during the day and practicing boxing at night, and gave me a set of "Three Fengyuan Taiji Biography" to make me doze off. Hehe, it is many times slower than our common Chen Shiyang style, and it is even less ornamental. He almost finished typing in the same place and didn't understand what he was doing at all, but when he started with us, he was completely showing a beautiful routine.

He once told me that if he taught me, he could surpass my champion brother within six months. That experience made us all give up martial arts, because we felt so desperate that we won a provincial championship, but it was still a blank sheet of paper, and even the fur of real martial arts didn't stick. We used to joke, "If I can't win, you will quit the Jianghu!" Only this time did we know that we had never even set foot on the threshold of rivers and lakes. ...

Taoist priest has gone to the northeast now, and I haven't heard from him for two years-maybe someone said I made it up. In fact, he is not without reputation. Before I met him, a martial arts magazine published his colorful page introduction through the Taoist Association, but he never mentioned it to us. I didn't see this magazine until I left Wudang Mountain. Because of this, I not only admire his indifference to fame and fortune, but also avoid people's suspicion that I am an advertising nurse, so I introduce this article to you as a memory, without revealing the name of the Taoist priest, which he requested at the beginning.
