"Play more actual combat." Joss said affirmatively: "It's not the kind of ring fight, but a real fight. When you faced a fierce enemy, all your skills were useless, and your mind was empty. Fighting was all instinctive. Tearing and fist swinging, when you have practiced enough to calmly face the fierce enemy, the technique will have room to play. Of course, you can start practicing from the group arena first. What is this called in your Chinese Kung Fu? I think about it .”
He patted his head with his hands, and suddenly remembered, "Oh, this is called one courage, two strengths, and three kung fu. Without courage, everything will be out of order."
"I only have two months, the summer vacation is over, I have to go back to study. What can I practice in two months?" Su Jie kept absorbing knowledge and experience from Joss.
This foreigner who often fights can not only help him practice his spoken English, but also find fighting experience from him to avoid detours.
Joss has a lot of research on Chinese Kung Fu, and he has traveled thousands of miles across the ocean. This kind of spirit and desire for knowledge are worthy of Su Jie's learning.
"Oh? Two months, Su Jie, are you kidding me?" Joss almost jumped up: "I can't even train my muscles in two months. You know, I have practiced for seven or eight years. I really can't do anything about it." , unless you go to practice marksmanship, bang! Bullets can help you solve a lot of things."
Su Jie stopped talking, knowing that if he wanted to learn fighting and become a master, it was really impossible to do anything in two months.
Reality is not a movie. After eating some kind of elixir, being taught a century-old skill, or some kind of spiritual energy to cut hair and wash marrow, the whole body will be filthy, and it will be reborn immediately.
"That guy is a master of Sanda, fighting, and wrestling for many years. He goes to the gym every day. If I also learn fighting with him, I will definitely not be able to compare with him. But I can't let that guy continue to harass my sister." Su Jie remembered My own humiliation made me angry in my heart, which is why I came to enroll in the traditional martial arts class instead of going to the martial arts school for Sanda, Muay Thai, and mixed martial arts classes.
There are also many fighting training classes in Minglun Martial Arts School. On the contrary, few people sign up for traditional martial arts classes. Even if they do, most of them are foreigners.
"This is really a flower inside the wall and a fragrance outside the wall." Su Jie commented on this.
The day's digging and digging training ended like this. In the last hour, the coach Gu Yang explained what postures should be used to dig, turn, knock, rise and fall.
Others were not taught at all, let alone any martial arts movements and fighting skills.
"Coach, aren't we here to learn martial arts? When will we start training in combat and actual combat?" At this time, a student couldn't help asking.
"I told you how to make money, but do I still need to teach you how to spend it?" Coach Gu Yang said coldly, choking the student back.
Hearing this, Su Jie understood in his heart that the coach Gu Yang probably only taught some methods of strength training, and how to use it had to be figured out by himself.
Thinking about it, the students present were all short-term martial arts training classes, and they couldn't learn anything advanced at all.
"It's not useless. On the contrary, the power of digging and turning the soil is very useful. If you just practice like this for two months, your strength will increase a lot." Su Jie thought: "Maybe the coach will teach us more advanced skills in the future." thing?"
A day of practice is over.
All the students followed Gu Yang to run for a few kilometers back to school. They were so exhausted that they were panting like dogs. They sat in the dormitory to rest for a while, and then began to eat. The food in the school cafeteria was still very good, the price was also very reasonable, and there was a lot of meat.
Of course, there are also various nourishing and medicinal meal packages, but they must be booked in advance, and the price is very expensive.
Su Jie thought about his bank card, and silently ordered some ordinary meals. His family's conditions are neither good nor bad. His mother is a university professor, and he has an older sister, Su Muchen, who works as a research expert in a large company. She studies artificial intelligence, and her salary is quite high. Give him some pocket money. My father is the security captain of a company, and his salary is much lower than that of my mother.
The mother is a university professor and the father is a security guard. There is a big difference between these two classes. Many people wonder why these two people get married and have children.
In fact, Su Jie also had this question when he was sensible, but he didn't dare to ask his father once after being beaten up.
When he came out this time, he didn't ask his parents for money, but the money he had accumulated as a tutor for students.
He is still in high school now, and because his grades are very good, some parents of students will ask him to help their children with homework. Since childhood, he has also accumulated a lot of pocket money.
He is very frugal, and he doesn't play games like other students, and he doesn't like toys, and he doesn't like to chase stars or buy anime characters. He saves money one by one.
But this time, signing up for this study class is very expensive. It costs 30,000 yuan for a two-month summer vacation, which is a steal. He spent most of the private money he had saved from childhood to adulthood.
"Where's my ginseng gratin chicken?"
Joss also went to the VIP restaurant in the cafeteria and invited Su Jie to come in for dinner.
The chef of the VIP restaurant served a pot with a milky fragrance, a few ginseng roots, various mushrooms and native chicken, vegetables, fresh fruits, beef and other rich foods.
"Oh, this chicken stewed with ginseng milk, the ginseng in it is best to be wild, 100-year-old ginseng, and 1000-year-old ginseng are the best. The skill has greatly increased! Especially the milk, it would be great if it was human milk." Joss shook Shaking his head, he seemed dissatisfied.
"I didn't expect you, a foreigner, to know Chinese recipes?" The chef became interested and asked in Chinese: "But this dish is only one thousand yuan. Although ginseng is grown, it is also very old. It is all six-year-old ginseng. As for human milk, do you think this is a prince or noble from the Qing Dynasty?"
The princes and nobles in the Qing Dynasty liked to drink milk. In fact, they raised a group of wet nurses. The human milk that was squeezed out was boiled and then added with rock sugar and other things.
As the saying goes, the strength of breastfeeding. Meaning, the longer a child nurses, the greater his strength.
"Joss, you are a foreigner, and you still believe this? There is no difference between planted ginseng and wild ginseng. It is the strongest when it is six years old, and it contains the most saponin. The century-old ginseng has become woody, almost like wood, There is no medicine at all. But breast milk is indeed much stronger than milk, and the various substances contained in it are not found in milk. It is true that babies who drink breast milk are smarter and stronger than those who grow up with milk." At this time, It was the turn of Su Jie, a top student, to use what he had learned in biology and history.
In addition to the knowledge in textbooks, he also learned a lot of extracurricular knowledge.
He is also good at physical education, running, high jump, long jump, rope skipping, shot put, javelin, horizontal bar, parallel bars, he can also meet the standard. Of course, he can't compare with those sports students, but he is also much better than the students who play games and sleep all day. .
Of course, the school does not teach martial arts, so naturally they know very little about martial arts and fighting, so they are trying to make up for it.
"Okay, okay. Let's eat. I specially ordered two servings today. It's interesting to eat together. I can't eat alone." Joss greeted Su Jie.
"Joss, you invited me to dinner, do you need my help?" Su Jie was half joking and half serious.
"Of course, use it as a sandbag. I have to train tonight!" Joss ate quickly, unable to speak clearly: "But I'm not taking advantage of you, it's good for you too. You don't want two months Become a master? Although this kind of training cannot make you a master, it can also enable you to cope with general fighting."
"Why do you want me to be your sandbag? I'm not your opponent. You should find someone who is similar to you." Su Jie asked strangely.
"No, no, it's because you are weak that I can control it. You are a moving target. If you are an opponent similar to me, if we both fight with all our strength, we may be injured. You have to remember, training You must not be injured at all times, because many times, even professional fighters are injured during training. After being injured, it is difficult to recover, and they will retire, and their career will be cut off. On the contrary, when they actually compete Very professional referees, with strict rules, everyone is careful to avoid fouls, and there are very few injuries." Joss warned Su Jie seriously, "So, every time you train, you must take it seriously, and you must not To be able to practice hard and endure pain is an act of self-harm."
"Understood." Su Jie gained experience again and silently memorized it in his heart.
"These chopsticks are so troublesome." Joss grabbed the chopsticks, but he couldn't pick up the vegetables. He was awkward and clumsy. He picked up a piece of chicken and was just about to put it in his mouth, but for some reason, he didn't grasp the strength well. Click! The chicken fell to the ground, and he was so angry that he threw his chopsticks on the ground.
"There are knives and forks here." Su Jie quickly pushed the knife and fork next to him.
"You Chinese are amazing. You use chopsticks, which are so difficult to use." Joss had no choice. He wanted to eat with chopsticks on purpose, but he just couldn't master it.
He has great strength and good physical fitness, but he uses skillful strength to hold things with his chopsticks, no matter how strong he is, it is useless.
"We have been used to using chopsticks since we were young, so of course we are very handy." Su Jie said, suddenly fell silent, as if he had thought of something.
"Why don't you talk?" Joss swallowed and asked vaguely.
"I'm thinking, you Westerners are born with a strong physique. We use knives and forks. Our Orientals are relatively thin, so we have to use skills to make up for it. You can see cultural habits from the tableware. Maybe you can see some of the principles of kung fu. ...." Su Jie showed a different way of thinking from his peers.
After eating, the two went back to the dormitory to rest. It was a double room, but there was no separate bathroom, but a public bathhouse. Generally speaking, the conditions were neither very good nor bad.
From Su Jie's point of view, the accommodation conditions are not worth the tuition fees.
Joss was lying on the bed, while Su Jie began to sit in front of the table and write a diary, making a summary of the day's events, and then felt what he did not do well, what he learned, and what insights he had.
This is his habit, since elementary school, for many years.
"On July 2, I mastered some digging and digging skills. It turns out that doing farm work is so hard, and there are so many skills and strength. I heard from Joss that this is a very important training in traditional martial arts. I think it is also possible. Because farmers in ancient China were very miserable and had to do a lot of physical work, and there was a shortage of materials in the countryside, and there were often armed fights. There are many examples in history textbooks. Two villages rob each other of water resources. When digging ditches, there are big Large-scale fighting with weapons, heavy casualties. In ancient times, the patriarchal thought, in fact, meant that if there were no males in the family, or there were not many males, and they could not fight, they would be bullied to death by neighbors, fellow villagers, and village tyrants. In ancient times A chicken, a tree, and even a few catties of rice are all very important wealth. If there is no man in the family, if the work is not good, things will be robbed and stolen. If there are many men in the family, and If you know martial arts, you can survive well, this is forced by survival, there is no way."
"Joss said that there are a lot of actual combat and real fighting to be courageous. I agree with this. It's like studying. You can do the questions again, but if you don't pass the atmosphere of many exams, you will lose your mind. I can’t do the questions I do, and my mind goes blank. I have experienced this kind of situation. Exams are similar to fighting.”
"The next thing I have to do is to practice digging well, and then learn how to use this move and how to actually fight. Fight more, be careful not to get hurt, protect yourself, overcome fear, increase courage, Su Jie, you can do it!"
After writing today's inspirational day and making a summary, Su Jie closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and felt that he was full of vitality again.
He is very young, only sixteen or seventeen now, and has strong recovery ability.
However, afterward, he added another entry at the back of the diary: "I want to have more conversations with Joshua in English, so as to improve my speaking ability."
