Chapter 264: Taijiquan
After Dongting finished speaking, he stood firm on the spot, closed his eyes slowly, then raised his hands from his Dantian, slowly raised them to his chest, and then breathed a long sigh of relief. At the same time, his left hand moved forward, his right hand moved backward, and his feet followed suit.
Before and after the separation.
After completing these preparations, Dongting slowly opened his eyes and said: "Tai Chi is actually more of a thought, and all the moves are just carriers. Between each move, only those that conform to Tai Chi can
Only thought can unleash its full power.”
If I had some enlightenment, I said, "Senior, what do you mean by thoughts?"
"Balance." Dongting said.
"Balance?" I asked half-understanding.
"Yes, it is balance. The so-called Tai Chi, the harmony of yin and yang, the balance of hardness and softness. If you blindly pursue hardness, you will be like pig iron, fragile and easy to break. If you blindly pursue softness, you will be like brocade, at the mercy of others.
Spineless." Dong Ting said.
Hearing this, I said: "If it is according to what you said, wouldn't it be the most perfect harmony that Tao Zun pursues to promote both the outer family and the inner family?"
"Yes, if we continue to deduce based on this theory, it does seem that the best choice is to develop both the internal family and the external family. However, all practitioners will inevitably end up moving to the point where the external family is the body and the internal family is the function.
In this case, it is no longer Tai Chi. In terms of power, the upper limit is actually lower." Dong Ting said.
After hearing this, I carefully recalled Daozun's moves, and then thought about Dongting's moves, and I can really feel the essential difference.
"Okay, the process of Tai Chi fighting is actually a process of exploration and thinking. You have to find the softness under the opponent's hardness, and the hardness behind the softness. Only in this way can you be targeted and win with one move.
, come on, come and beat me." Dong Ting said.
I stood there and saw that Dong Ting seemed to be staggering a little. I was worried that he was old and would not be able to resist my moves, so I said: "Senior, I have listened to what you just said. After that, I
You can digest it slowly, so I won’t bother you to demonstrate it.”
"Humph, could it be that you look down on me?" Dongting said.
"Absolutely not..." Before I could finish speaking, Dong Ting hooked his finger, signaling for me to take action.
Having said that, I really couldn't shirk it. I stood still, deliberately released the water, and punched the east court with one punch. Although it seemed to be powerful and heavy, the speed was not fast, and the strength was just an illusion.
Just when I was about to finish clicking, Dongting suddenly quickly grabbed my wrist with his left hand. At the same time, I felt my whole arm being pulled towards him forcefully, and just as my body moved forward involuntarily,
After taking a step, I saw Dongting's right foot moving forward quickly and inserting it between my feet.
As a result, I staggered and flew towards the East Courtyard.
I quickly hugged my Dantian tightly, hoping to maintain balance with the power of my Tao channels.
Unexpectedly, before I could completely tighten my Dantian, Dongting suddenly moved forward and hit my armpit with the shoulder blade of his right arm. With the blow, I originally used force to maintain my balance backwards, but as the
The collision in the East Courtyard made it even harder for me to maintain my balance. My whole body immediately flew out and fell to the ground.
Dong Ting said: "Did you see it, Chief Wu? This is Tai Chi."
I heard a hint of disdain in Dong Ting's words. Although I respected him very much, I was still a little unconvinced and said, "I wasn't ready just now. Let's do it again."
Dongting raised his chin, looked at me with squinted eyes, and then said, "Can you respect me now?"
After listening to Dong Ting's words, I realized that he was deliberately pretending to be arrogant to anger me, and then I would really use my full strength to fight him.
Thinking of this, I said: "Senior, this junior has become ignorant just now. Please let me know. I will try my best this time, and I hope you will give me some advice."
"Okay! Come on!" After Dongting finished speaking, he repositioned his feet and his whole body became more compact, like a pool of spring water.
I didn't dare to be careless, so I said I was offended, and then I used all my strength to jump in front of Dong Ting, then turned my fist into a palm and hit Dong Ting's Dantian.
In terms of moves alone, this move can be said to be one of my signature moves. The only difference is that in the past, my hands were filled with kneading techniques or Taoist power, but this time it was just palm power. But at this time, I was no longer
When I first came out of Wujiacun, I could say the same thing.
Just when I thought the blow was successful, Dongting suddenly moved the upper part of his body to the right, sliding right against the heel of my palm, and then his right knee and left hand locked together towards my palm.
I quickly retracted my palm, then stamped my feet on the spot, trying to do a backflip to distance myself.
Unexpectedly, just as he took off into the air, his feet were suddenly grabbed by a pair of strong hands.
I didn't wait for Dong Ting to exert force, and quickly kicked towards Dong Ting alternately. Just when I thought I could succeed with one blow, my knees bent as if locked by a huge force, and I couldn't exert any strength at all.
I looked sideways and found that Dongting's hands were tightly locked on my ankles, and his right knee was already touching the crook of my knee.
Before I could react, Dongting suddenly threw me out.
I fell heavily to the spot, but I could barely get up and said: "Senior, you, your Tai Chi is really powerful, and it is indeed very different from Tao Zun's Tai Chi."
"That's natural. If the theory is different, Tai Chi is actually two styles of boxing. However, the external style of boxing is not without merit. Even my master once said that one day, those who can surpass him will definitely be able to combine the external style and the internal style.
The so-called combination of hardness and softness in a person is exactly like this." Dong Ting said.
"I remember senior." I said.
"Okay, let's try it now. I will attack you later, and see if you can use Tai Chi to neutralize me." Dongting said.
I nodded, got into position, and looked at the east court.
I saw him kicking his right foot fiercely, and the elbow of his right arm hit me first. The whole process was so fast that I had no time to find the so-called flaw, so I had to dodge and hit Dongting's waist.
between.
Unexpectedly, this blow was predicted by Dong Ting. He grabbed my wrist with his left hand, pulled me to the right side of his body, and kicked my ankle with his right foot.
These actions happened very quickly. From the perspective of a bystander, I fell to the ground almost instantly.
"Senior, I..." I was a little ashamed.
"If you can't adapt to this level of attack, Tai Chi will be of no use to you. You must use Tai Chi firmly to fully master Tai Chi after a lot of training." Dongting said.
"Even if it hurts at the beginning?" I asked.
Chapter completed!
