Over the next few days, Lu Hongti could occasionally be seen sitting on the steps, deep in thought.
"… As for the Reverse Joints Technique, it's mainly about attacking a person's joints under certain circumstances, dislocating the joints and causing them to lose the ability to fight. Some rely on force, some forcefully destroy it. I know that there must be a lot of grappling techniques in your martial arts, so I'm sure that I'm just showing off in front of an expert since you're so good at it … What I'm going to talk about is some more direct concepts. Directly making a fuss on the fingers, ankles, elbows, knees, and so on might be more purposeful …"
When the opponent kicks out, you don't need to think about dodging or attacking other parts of the opponent's body. Instead, you need to catch the kick and apply force on the ankle. Wherever he goes, you can move in that direction. This area is very fragile. Just one hit and you'll be crippled for life … I feel that many martial arts don't seem to be very thorough and direct in this aspect. Of course, it might not be very useful on the battlefield, hehe … "
"This is a basic concept. It should be easy to explain. Then, we can analyze it in detail. The force exerted on the fingers, elbows, knees, and ankles. There are many vital points on the human body. We can list them out. For example, a person's hand … Here, uh, it should be here. As long as there is a cut, it will bleed non-stop. Behind the ear …"
At first, she actually treated it as an interesting way to show off. For those who fought on the battlefield, all their moves were actually practical. There were actually many concepts like breaking fingers and hitting joints in martial arts. Lu Hongti was also very clear about the many vital points on the human body. Ning Yi made it very simple. If you hit me with your palm, I'll break your finger or hit your elbow in the opposite direction. There was nothing much to say.
However, as he explained step by step in detail, it seemed that some things started to change.
It was too detailed, too clear, and too organized. In those explanations, every single detail of the human body seemed to be analyzed based on the structure of "because" and "so". There were even some vital points that she really hadn't thought about in detail before. Even if she knew, she wouldn't think about achieving this or that goal in the first place when fighting.
"Who … taught you all this?"
"Huh?"
"It's like … practicing martial arts with your method of understanding things …"
Ning Yi thought about it and nodded with a smile. What he said was actually a summary of many modern fighting techniques, mainly used for self-defense. After all, he had learned and dabbled in Jujitsu, Aikido, Muay Thai in his previous life. It was impossible for him to learn systematically in the future. However, apart from the fitness aspect, he basically came into contact with skills that were highly lethal for self-defense, military boxing, and many skills of special forces. He didn't need to tell Lu Hongti exactly how to do it. Lu Hongti was too familiar with these aspects. Therefore, what he said was only a general concept analysis, so that people's goals would become clearer.
"… For an expert, there may be different adaptations. But on the level of an ordinary person, if you have good eyesight, fast hands, practice repeatedly, and aim to destroy a few points on the human body in the shortest time possible, coupled with the internal energy of these second-rate experts … It may be very harsh to become a true expert, but if you face other people's soldiers in a specific environment, it may be more effective … Don't pursue all-around, muddled, or muddle-headed. See the goal clearly, do specialized training, and cut in like a scalpel … Okay, scalpel is a noun in understanding things …
"For example, you can consider forming a group of five or a few people, specializing in infiltration, mutual support, silent killing, and remote observation … You're not the only one who can think about assassination. With a few people working together, the efficiency of assassination or disruption will be higher, but you have to do in-depth research, find patterns, and look for flaws … Okay, these ideas are for the next step. We'll discuss this in a few days. Let's talk about martial arts first …
"I don't know how many sets of boxing techniques I have, but you're the master, so you can determine whether or not it's useful. Anyway, if it's useless, just take it as a demonstration … The first set is probably made to target these weaknesses. Unfortunately, one of my hands isn't very good, so I might not be able to demonstrate it well …"
Eight or nine days had passed, and Ning Yi could basically move his left hand. Of course, according to Lu Hongti, it would take about half a year of continuous treatment for him to fully recover. There should not be too many sequelae. The first set of boxing techniques was naturally military boxing. This was a killing technique that was completely focused on practicality and fatal. Of course, it did not mean that it would be very suitable to be learned. Just like the reverse joint technique, a lot of practice was indispensable. Even if ordinary people practiced it, they might not necessarily be able to defeat opponents at the level of the Yang Clan brothers with a body like Ning Yi's. At present, Ning Yi might not necessarily spend a lot of time practicing this technique. However, Lu Hongti could naturally see what was contained in it at a glance.
"This … should be a fist that only focuses on speed and strength. If it's below a certain level, it's indeed … very scary.
"With extreme speed and strength, can he compete with a first-rate expert?"
Ning Yi was curious about this. Lu Hongti sat there and smiled, then walked up to him. "Come and hit me."
"I'm injured, and I don't hit women …"
Ning Yi spread his hands, but before he finished speaking, his right hand was ready to punch out. However, with a thought, just as his fist was about to punch out, he suddenly lost all strength. Lu Hongti silently pressed two fingers against his elbow, then retracted them. His right fist was about to punch out again. Then, he ignored the injury on his left hand and prepared to exert force at the same time. Lu Hongti's fingers casually touched his hands and legs. Her skirt rose slightly, and the tip of her foot quietly touched his ankle. Then, Ning Yi wanted to open his mouth and use his head to hit and bite her. His forehead was gently pushed, and his mouth opened a slit, then he closed it and ate a bean.
From the beginning to the end, Ning Yi couldn't even lift his hands and feet. It looked like his body swayed a few times. At this moment, he covered his mouth and looked depressed. "You're not doing this …"
Lu Hongti smiled happily. "The cicada feels the autumn wind before it moves. Your objective is simple, but before you raise your hand, your Qi and blood already tell me what you're going to do. No matter how fast you are, how strong you are, what's the use? In the future, when you learn some martial arts routines, Master will also tell you that those moves are not for fun. If our levels are similar, I'll start raising my hand the moment you move your shoulder. When you see my fingers move, your body will immediately change. Then, I'll know that it's useless, so I'll continue changing … "
She thought for a moment. "But if you only want to learn it quickly, this set of boxing is actually enough …"
"Alright, anyway, I can only be a second-rate expert …" Ning Yi ate a bean. At this moment, he was still a little stammering. This afternoon, he studied military boxing for a while and talked about demi-gods and semi-demons. On the second day, Ning Yi demonstrated a set of Taiji Fist to the other party and muttered some words.
"Taiji Fist, born of infinity, the essence of movement and stillness, the mother of Yin and Yang …"
He only remembered a little of this sentence, but it didn't matter. It already sounded very mysterious. After he finished speaking, he quickly shut his mouth and made an unfathomable demonstration. In fact, what he practiced was not a set of Taiji moves that sounded very powerful. It was just the Old Lady Fist from the park, from the beginning to the Grasping the Bird's Tail to the Single Whip. It was early in the morning. Lu Hongti sat on the steps and smiled while eating a small red fruit picked from the forest.
"What a joke, what kind of fist is this? How can it be so slow? How do you hit people …"
Ning Yi's left hand wasn't smooth either. At this moment, he stopped and said, "Shut up! Watch carefully and think carefully. Don't laugh … Superficial! "
He flew into a rage out of humiliation. Lu Hongti put a small fruit into her mouth and nodded seriously. Her eyes were still smiling, and then she started from the beginning. When it was about the time when the white crane spread its wings, Lu Hongti chewed and nodded. She muttered, "This is the fist of the Blade and Shield Soldier, but the fist intent is a little scattered …"
Advancing Block Hammer, Like Sealing Like Closing, Open Hand, Single Whip Right, Elbow Hammer … In fact, Ning Yi's punches were soft and not very standard. In terms of philosophy, he naturally walked the path of pure rationality and logic. The data flow and overall planning style of military boxing and vital analysis were more to his liking. He just wanted to see if this fist technique was useful for Lu Hongti. Halfway through the fist, Lu Hongti just frowned and watched. When it was over, she sat there and pursed her lips. "That's all?"
"Yes, that's all I know." Ning Yi spread his hands. "How was it?"
"I can't figure it out …" Lu Hongti's tone was a little low. Then she looked to the side and seemed to be talking to herself. "Your fist is too strange. It's broken. It shouldn't be like this. This is a Taoist thing … My master is a Taoist nun, she …"
Her master was already dead. He didn't know what she had taught her in the past, but Tai Chi Fist definitely didn't exist in this day and age. Ning Yi also knew that this kind of Tai Chi Fist had changed. If fist techniques were divided into training methods and fighting methods, this was not even a training method at all. Instead, it was more like a dance. Since Lu Hongti could understand it, he naturally wouldn't interfere too much. At noon, he took the gourd to fetch water. When he came back, he saw Lu Hongti repeating the Tai Chi Fist in front of the ruined temple. However, from the beginning to the end, she stopped three times in a row.
She stopped once and started again. Sometimes, she shook her head and thought for a while, then changed her form and started again. It had been more than two hours since she finished one round. Some parts had changed so much that Ning Yi couldn't recognize them at all. She finished one round in a row. Sometimes her speed was fast, sometimes slow. However, she had already gotten rid of many of the dance moves. It looked like she was iron-blooded and murderous. As her skirt fluttered, there was a unique heroic spirit and beauty. She even broke a small tree at the side with a move of the Tai Chi Fist. When she was done with this round, she began to push and change forms. This time, the speed was slow again, but it became more frequent.
At dusk, the fist technique didn't stop. The setting sun shone through the gaps between the trees. White smoke curled up from Lu Hongti's head. She had already changed the fist technique several times. In Ning Yi's eyes, it seemed that every time she did it was scary. Then, she started a bonfire to cook. When the rice was ready, it was already night time. Ning Yi was still thinking if he should ask her to stop. Lu Hongti calmed down and came over, sitting beside him.
"Have you figured it out?"
"I can't figure it out. Some of your fist techniques are used in battle. This one is easy to think of, but the others are not …" She shook her head. "Using softness to conquer hardness. It's like the idea of Yin and Yang in Daoism. This doesn't seem to be in Ge Wu … Where did you learn all these …"
"Uh, when I was a child, there was a Daoist who passed by my house …"
Lu Hongti laughed. "He recited two poems … Don't try to fool me. I've asked around. If you don't want to tell me, then I won't. If you say that it's your own idea, I'll just think that there are geniuses in this world who are born with knowledge …"
After all, it was taboo to inquire about other people's art. Lu Hongti paid more attention to this aspect. Ning Yi shook his head. "If there really is such a person, I really want to introduce him to you. But there really isn't … Well, it's indeed using softness to conquer hardness. There are some very powerful theories. Do you want to hear them?"
Therefore, that night, she used all kinds of theories about Taiji Fist to fool her. Some of them were occasionally encountered, some were seen on TV, and of course, some were in business philosophy. Some were nonsense, some were too mysterious, and some were too practical at the level of business organizations. Ning Yi had his own set of theories, and it was not difficult for him to write a thesis. But after all, it was not very useful in martial arts.
Lu Hongti mentioned that recreating Taiji Fist might not be something that could be done in a day or two. In the next two days, she instilled some concepts like One-Inch Punch, Wing Chun Kung Fu, Half-step Collapse, Jeet Kune Do, and so on. Ning Yi had never practiced any of them. He only knew bits and pieces of them. For example, he knew how to stand in a two-sided formation and how to use it. He just let Lu Hongti think about how to use it. He also talked about One-Inch Punch and other close combat concepts. For example, there was a fist that could be used in this way, and then it could achieve this effect. As for the momentum of Japanese Kendo, Bushido, or the momentum of Muay Thai, he also talked about it.
On one hand, it was because it was not stressful to talk about it. On the other hand, for Ning Yi, he did not talk about it just to show off. He was very interested in these things. Martial arts would develop for another thousand years. In this thousand years, there would be changes, progress, and regression. In the end, when combined with the experience and temperament of a martial arts master, he was very interested in what would happen when he sent all the concepts of the past thousand years to Lu Hongti. This was something that he was very interested in.
At present, he had three feelings for Lu Hongti: first, they were friends. Second, they were trading partners. In the future, he might be able to ask her for some other things. This was an invisible resource. Third, this was an investment. He really wanted to see how things would turn out in the future. Of course, there was no need to think so carefully about everything. However, since they were friends, he was also willing to provide some things that he could provide. This was especially because these things were also very easy for him.
Originally, he had planned to provide some things to Lu Hongti in exchange for secret martial arts manuals. Therefore, in the past few days, he had been thinking and combining information, considering what would be suitable for her. It was like managing a company for the other party when he had nothing to do and providing various plans. First of all, he had to understand the inside story of the company.
So in the morning a few days later, Ning Yi said to Lu Hongti, "Next, I want to discuss with you the situation in Luliang Mountain, the situation of the Liao army raiding or invading every year, and the situation of the villages in the mountain. I already have a general outline, but I'm not completely clear about the details. Then … I will help you make a complete set of plans and plans. I will draw up some prospects and development blueprints for you. Of course, it will be based on the actual situation on your side and can be used. "
Lu Hongti pondered for a while before she looked at him and said, "I roughly understand what you are talking about, but … do you also know this?"
Ning Yi smiled and said, "This is what I'm really good at. It should be helpful."
*****
In fact, he had not been home from last night to this morning. A friend of his had returned from the United States, and his schedule was very tight, so he flew over from Bing City to see Banana. Yesterday, he only slept for four hours and went out after writing the draft. When he came back in the morning, he was really shocked by everyone. I asked for 100 votes, and everyone actually gave me more than 300 votes. I am very grateful for everyone's support for Banana. I also want to thank the two students, "Qiankun Rope" and "Tycoon's Growth", as well as everyone else for their tips. Every time Banana buried a long story, he was actually very nervous and very nervous. At least, everyone's support proved that many of Banana's choices were correct. Banana would continue to work hard to give everyone a better and more exciting story!
At noon, he slept for a while and then got up to write. The next chapter would be out before midnight. He was still very inspired, so there should not be any problems from now on.
