Chapter 17: Lay the foundation

Views:

Since then, Li Kuan has lived a repetitive life every day. Except for the four hours of eating and sleeping, the rest of the time is occupied by Gonggong Zhao and Gonggong Qian. Li Kuan has no time to change his skills and end his basic martial arts skills. To practice, he has to go to read books, except for the two quarter-hours of eating time in the middle, there is no other time for him.

On the first day of Wushu training, Li Kuan couldn’t eat at all. His body was completely limp. He didn’t even have the strength to hold the chopsticks. After a break, he could not concentrate on reading, and even appeared distracted or drowsy. .

Gonggong Zhao couldn't bear it, but Li Yuan had to carry it out, and let Li Kuan concentrate on learning. After four hours of reading time, Li Kuan reluctantly ate a few bites of food in the afternoon and fell asleep directly on the ground.

The next day, Grandpa Qian thought that Li Kuan would be bored or unwilling. To his surprise, Li Kuan was already awake at the time of Yin, and he came over by himself without waiting for him to open his mouth, repeating the arrangement of going up the mountain yesterday. , And then another day of leg exercises.

After half a month, Li Kuan finally adapted to the switch between martial arts and reading, and he was also used to getting up at the same time every day, and eating well and sleeping soundly. Upon seeing this, Mr. Qian started the next basic exercise. This time he repeated the leg exercises and then practiced waist exercises.

Waist work is not as complicated as leg work. The simple movements made Li Kuan a little overwhelmed. Although he is already familiar with leg work, this time he switched to waist work to practice waist flexibility, body coordination, and upper and lower limb movements. It is closely related to the future body skills.

In the past, the three movements made Li Kuan suffer again, bend his waist, swing his waist, and then lower his waist. Each movement must be maintained for an hour. After Li Kuan bent his waist before finishing the exercise, he already felt back pain and leg cramps. The movement of shaking the waist again made him feel weak.

Lowering the waist is the most difficult. Every time you lower the waist, you have to stand with your legs apart and shoulder-width apart, raise your arms up, straighten your hips, and lean your upper body back until your head is facing down and your palms support the ground. The whole body is arched. . Grandpa Qian is extremely strict with him, and he will start again if his limbs are not straightened or moved.

The basic exercises of the waist take longer than the leg exercises. It took a full 20 days to reach the requirements of Mr. Qian. When bending forward, the legs must be kept straight and not bend at all. If it is wrong, it must be renewed. If you have been here, you will be fined.

In the first three days of basic waist exercises, he could fall asleep while eating. He was too tired. Even so hard, he never said to give up or reluctantly. Every time Mr. Qian asked for very strict requirements, he would go all out to do it. , Such perseverance made Father Qian very satisfied.

After the waist basic skills are completed, the shoulder basic skills training is carried out, the purpose is to exercise the flexibility, range of motion and strength of the shoulder joint. Grandpa Qian's requirements for him are as strict as ever. Li Kuan has been practicing martial arts for more than a month. He is no longer a rookie who didn't know anything at first. Now any basic skills are nothing to him. The big deal is to spend a little longer time.

After the above three basic skills were proficient, Mr. Qian didn't teach anything else, so he let him continue to practice for a month before ending the beginning of the first stage. In the middle, he taught Li Kuan the essentials of jumping, balancing, falling, throwing, and rolling.

Jumping height requires the combination of leg and waist strength to jump higher, run faster, and jump up and down every day; after the end, Mr. Qian specially finds a single tree to keep him balanced on it, and he is He kept turning the single tree, and after repeated falling lessons, Li Kuan also mastered how to maintain his body balance, while the width of the single tree was getting smaller and smaller, only accommodating the width of one foot.

As for the four basic movements of falling, throwing and rolling, Mr. Qian also explained clearly in detail. He personally demonstrated it to Li Kuan and then let him practice. These four movements can not only be turned into attacks, but also play a role in protecting himself, and they are different from the previous ones. The basic exercises taught in combination will have different effects.

It has taken a year to master the whole set of basic skills. Father Qian didn’t seem to be in a hurry. Li Kuan never taught him any other movements after he was familiar with it. He just let him practice repeatedly every day, as to where he started and ended. After all, everything is up to Li Kuan to decide.

For two years, Mr. Qian stayed in the Da'an Palace to supervise Li Kuan’s exercises. In the last year, Mr. Qian went out to do errands and let Li Kuan practice the exercises by himself. Before leaving, he said, “The most important thing in martial arts practice is a solid foundation. From now on, I will teach you actual combat."

"Master, are you not afraid of me being lazy?" Li Kuan has been with Qian Gonggong for two years. He knows his personality, a typical careless, informal person, and his obsession with martial arts is the same as his obsession with books. It can be called'Wu Chi'.

"Whether you are lazy or not is with me. Even if I am at you and want to be lazy, you can be lazy. The road is at your own feet. It depends on you. If you want to achieve something, practice harder and repeat the same actions every day. After you get through it, it’s not easy."ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм

Li Kuan nodded silently. Grandpa Qian was more of a quagmire. The arrogance and dry cloud aura deeply affected him. He knew that the three grandfathers around his grandfather Li Yuan were definitely not as simple as they seemed. There are stories.

Grandpa Qian left on the same day. As for where he went or what he did, Li Kuan didn't know what he was doing, and he was not qualified to ask his master. Even though Father Qian left, Li Kuan still continued to practice basic movements, sometimes imitating the movements that later generations saw on TV.

I once fantasized about becoming a master of martial arts. I never wanted to come true today. I don’t think it’s incredible. Li Kuan has been practicing martial arts for two years except for studying, and he doesn’t care about other things. Li Yuan never said anything, even offering sacrifices. Li Kuan has never appeared in front of others. It can be said that few of the descendants of the entire Datang royal family still remember the existence of Li Kuan.

In the past two years, Li Kuan and Li Yuan have met only a handful of times, except for the Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival each year, which is when Li Yuan is born. Because Li Kuan has too many things to do every day, only these festivals will be closed.

Moreover, this rule was set by Li Yuan himself. Li Yuan naturally knew what Li Kuan did every day. Basically, he visited without Li Kuan’s knowledge. Li Yuan nodded with satisfaction when he saw Li Kuan eagerly studying and martial arts every day. , And then returned to Da'an Temple with a smile.

When Mr. Qian was not in Da'an Palace, no one supervised Li Kuan and he continued to practice every day. Just like Mr. Qian said, laying a solid foundation is the beginning of everything. For this reason, Li Kuan practices basic skills every day, and he never gets tired of it.

In less than half a year, Father Qian came back again, and he came to Cuihua Hall for the first time. He saw Li Kuan's move to recruit tigers and tigers. The things he was worried about did not happen, so he quietly left for Da'an Hall. Report to Li Yuan. (End of this chapter)
