Chapter 36 Section Fourteen

Five days later, the driver drove a BMW to the school to pick me up to meet Mr. Wang, which caused quite a stir among teachers and students. The head teacher who knew my family situation carefully asked me during recess the next day: "Your father is an official again?" I replied: "Where, it's a buddy." Can see this scene.Maybe she was standing at the window looking down?I looked up and felt a blissful dizziness, although I didn't find her. But the driver ruined it all. He got out of the car graciously and opened the door for me.He doesn't look like a high-quality person in any way, and my value just raised by the BMW car has been lowered by his face.

He felt that my expression was different, and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you?" I: "It's nothing, it's just a little vanity... It's shattered." Mr. Wang hired an indoor badminton court and wore a wrestling bag wait for me.This is a small badminton court with only eight nets, but the room is 16 meters high, and there is a row of skylights on the roof, the light cascading down like a waterfall, which is quite imposing. A dozen square meters of cloth mats are laid out on the field for wrestling.Mr. Wang exposed the flesh on his chest, and his skin looked very thick, far exceeding that of ordinary humans, like a rhinoceros and an elephant.He said boldly: "I like to make friends with martial arts the most. When I was young, I was invincible. Do you want to do some preparatory activities?" I shook my head.He said, "My hands are black. I'll break you. Why don't you stretch your legs and waist first?" I had no choice but to agree.During the leg press, he came over and said, "If my grandfather hadn't been crippled by others, he would also be a master of wrestling. He introduced Tai Chi into wrestling and improved the cultural taste of wrestling." I was suddenly curious, and he noticed I smiled and said: "To learn to wrestle, you must first learn how to be thrown. You must first practice not to hit the back of your head when you fall to the ground. Wrestlers have thick necks. Even if they fall on their backs, they can hold their necks and prevent the back of their heads from hitting the ground." This is the most important basic skill of wrestling. But before my grandfather fell, he loosened other people’s necks with Tai Chi skills..." Mr. Wang pointed to the driver standing on the sidelines: "Come here!" The driver Running quickly, Mr. Wang patted the driver's arm with his hand, and the driver's neck was crooked.

Mr. Wang stumbled and fell the driver backwards, and the back of the driver's head was resting on Mr. Wang's instep. Mr. Wang smiled: "Don't dare to move for real. If the back of the head is really thrown on the ground, the jargon is called 'beating the drum'. If you can kill him with one blow, even if you are alive, you are still a fool." I thought: Wrestling has been integrated into Taijiquan, Not only did it fail to improve the cultural taste, but it became even more ruthless. The driver stood up from the ground calmly, apparently he had gone through this kind of drill countless times.

President Wang looked at me with pity in his eyes, and said, "Don't worry, I won't do this unique skill with you, let's just use some small tricks like knives, hooks and crosses." Me: "You are so sure that I am Do you practice martial arts?" Mr. Wang: "The wrestlers in Tianqiao are the most stylish among entertainers, because wrestling was originally for the emperor to watch, and it is only because Sun Yat-sen overthrew the Qing Dynasty that he was exiled to the people. They all have official positions, and they usually serve as palace guards to deal with Han assassins. Hehe, because of this tradition, we can recognize people who practice martial arts." I said, "Emperor Yongzheng was killed by the chivalrous girl Lu Siniang." Assassinated?" Mr. Wang: "Stop talking so much, let's go!" He stretched out his hand to grab me, and I slapped him on the elbow, and his neck was crooked.

He protected his head with both hands, took five steps back, the muscles in his neck tightened again, and he yelled: "Ho!" He rushed towards me, I slapped him on the chest, and his neck was crooked again. He hurriedly protected his head with both hands, and took seven or eight steps back.After a while, he put his hand down and scolded: "You always use your unique skills, how can you let people play!" The driver asked me excitedly: "Are you practicing Taijiquan?" Me: "No, but I can also practice Taijiquan." The driver: "What kind of boxing?" Me: "A small step The punch that rubs against each other." The driver: "What kind of punch is that?" Mr. Wang yelled, "I know! You are from the Guoshu Academy! Hey...don't all of you passers-by die?" Shanpu Ying wrestler In the early years of the Republic of China, he lost his palace salary and had to perform in the bustling market of Tianqiao.Although it has become cheap, it still maintains the bureaucratic system of Shanpuying. The three commanders of Shanpuying can get a percentage of the wrestlers' performance money every month.This is not exploitation, but filial piety.The wrestlers maintain a sense of honor in their hearts by supporting the three leaders.

Wrestlers feel that their status is higher than that of martial arts practitioners, and martial arts practitioners are in their eyes. They do not follow the rules of the rivers and lakes, but follow the rules of the Qing palace.In the third year of the Republic of China, the Guoshu Museum was established, a wrestling department was opened, and wrestlers were hired as teachers. After discussion, the three commanders replied: "We each have our own way of life, and we can't play together." The hands are very concerned about the Guoshu Museum.When the political leaders inscribed the plaque of "Strengthening the country and strengthening the species" to the Guoshu Hall, the three leaders sighed: "Feng Shui takes turns, and martial arts practitioners will succeed this time." The emotions of the wrestlers were repeated and spread to the Guoshu Hall.The curator Zhou Cunyi came to discuss it in person and said: "My boxing was passed down from the Konghuan Temple in the west of Mount Wutai. According to legend, Shunzhi, the second emperor of the Qing Dynasty, did not die of smallpox but became a monk. The four characters "Hanpu Qianyin" in the plaque pavilion judge that Shunzhi became a monk here." The three leaders asked: "How do you say this?" Zhou Cunyi explained: "The Hanpu Qianyin, according to the literary conception, refers to the winter. The frozen waterfall, its solidified lines, can still make people feel the existence of the sound of water. But the name of the Buddhist teacher of Emperor Shunzhi was "Han Pu", which is the pronunciation of the word Hanpu, and the word "Qianyin" , it is 'shallow', which shows that he is not deeply reclusive, but he still has contact with the Qing Palace, and he is not gone without a trace." The three commanders sighed repeatedly, and asked: "Conclusion?" Zhou Cunyi: "Guoshu Museum His martial arts were handed down from the palace guards who followed Emperor Shunzhi's retreat." The three commanders said, "Since you and I are a family, we decided to enter the Guoshu Academy." Zhou Cunyi left happily.

Commander A: "The rivers and lakes are still rivers and lakes. Although martial arts practitioners have gained power, they are still so low-level in their work. Use unofficial history to make friends with us." Commander B: "Let's follow their advice and find someone for the junior wrestlers." A way to survive." Commander C: "If Lord Kangxi is alive, the Qing Dynasty will never be wiped out. We will not lower our status and associate with these martial arts practitioners." The more the three talked, the more sad they became. After the wrestlers entered the martial arts hall, civil strife broke out in the martial arts hall. Zhou Cunyi's eldest disciple and nephew competed for the financial rights of the martial arts hall, split into two factions, and then a tragic fight broke out.Then the martial arts hall was controlled by a certain warlord, and Zhou Cunyi was retained as the curator, and the children of the warlord's hometown moved into the martial arts hall as students, and the martial arts hall became a distribution center for soldiers.

The wrestlers have experience in court battles, and they withdrew when the Guoshu Hall was split.They saw another history of rise and fall, and they sighed with each other: "The rivers and lakes are rivers and lakes after all." Mr. Wang finished telling the allusion and sighed: "What's so good about practicing martial arts? You should learn wrestling from me." He has great ambitions and plans to take the bath After the center is built all over the country, a wrestling field will be built next to each bathhouse. After people wrestle, they go to take a bath, and after taking a bath, they continue to wrestle, and a peaceful and prosperous age will be achieved.

Wrestling has broad prospects, but Mr. Wang has not practiced to his grandfather's level.He said: "One can only accomplish one thing by giving up one thing. In the past ten years, my ability to earn money has improved a lot, and my ability to wrestle has receded like a sea ebb. Now you will pass on my family's unique skills to you in full. I'm at ease." Me: "I have a master, so I can't ask another teacher." Mr. Wang laughed: "I know you martial arts practitioners still come here! It's okay, wrestlers don't engage in masters and apprentices. The rules of the rivers and lakes, to teach you is to give you a 'hands-on'." The driver gave me a wink, and I said, "Okay, let's do it this way." Mr. Wang took me to the shoe store and bought me leather shoes worth 200 yuan , I bought him cloth shoes for 4 yuan and 50 cents. This is the tradition of "heart for heart, shoe for shoe" in the wrestling industry, and it has established a friendship.
