Chapter 30 Punching the Nanshan Tigers

Li Zicheng recited Zhu Zaiyu's works one by one, and Zhu Yi was so shocked that the clouds covered the mountain.

"You..." Lao Zhu was puzzled. Many of his father's works were not widely circulated, and some were not even published.

"Lao Zhu, those who know me say that I am worried, and those who don't know me say that what do I want? Look, I want to turn this world upside down!"

"..."

Leaving the confused old Zhu behind, Li Zicheng went out with three guards.

Not far away is Qinghua Town, the commercial port of northern Henan.

The earthen walls were low and collapsed in many places, which was a God-given opportunity.

As the peasant army moved around to fight, in the next few years, in order to avoid military disasters, the slightly wealthier towns and even villages began to rebuild, build strong walls, and purchase artillery and muskets.

It will become increasingly difficult to siege the city in the future.

Li Zicheng entered the town with great swagger.

The "rogue thieves" had not attacked before, so the town was prosperous.

Shanxi Iron Goods Store has the largest number of iron pans, farm tools, sewing needles, raw and wrought iron, etc., as well as vinegar, Lu silk, firecrackers, tobacco...

Local specialties include bamboo utensils, ginger, medicinal herbs, etc., which are sold well in the north and south.

Dang Shousu bought some persimmons and the four of them ate while shopping.

After eating, Li Zicheng praised it: "This stuff is good, you can buy it in large quantities."

Huang Taiji also liked to eat persimmons, and Goryeo paid 40,000 persimmons to the queen every year.

Paying tribute is too unpleasant to listen to. The Korean people recorded that "Jin Khan asked for more than 30,000 tomatoes every year, and he was ordered to give them to him."

Well, Huang Taiji asked for it, and he gave it generously.

The old man probably ate frozen persimmons. He sat cross-legged on the hot bed in the palace in Shenyang and took a sip of it.

Why did Hou Jin enter the customs many times and Huang Taiji took huge risks to attack the city of Beijing? Maybe it was because the Fangshan Mopan persimmons were so delicious.



Li Zicheng said that he wanted to purchase persimmons in large quantities. Xie Junyou was confused, "We didn't bring any money, either?"

The revolutionary army set out from Mount Li, but they did not dare to take the main road, so they had to drill ditches and cross mountains. Not to mention that they did not bring much money, they did not even have mules, horses, or carts, and the rations were carried on the backs of men.

Bai Jiuhe smiled and said: "Brother, if you look around, aren't all our money bags in this town?"

Li Zicheng praised, "Xiaobai has a bright future!"

Dang Shousu said with a grimace, "Don't the revolutionary army have discipline?"

When he was selling smuggled salt, he encountered officers and soldiers on the road, and all his property was "confiscated", so he particularly hated plundering.

Li Zicheng consoled him: "The arena is not just about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships. We can 'borrow money'!"

The four of them walked around the town and got familiar with the terrain.

Walking to a stall, Li Zicheng asked casually, "Will this melon stay ripe?"

The stall owner replied: "The customer is joking, can this old man sell you raw melon eggs?"

Li Zicheng dropped a bunch of copper coins and waved to Baijiuhe, Dang Shousu and Xie Junyou, "You guys eat the melon first, I'll be back soon."

He turned and walked into Dashun Pharmacy next door.

"Dude, do you have any good luck and calm the nerves?"

The guy was stunned for a moment, then he touched his lips and said, "I...I..."

I said "I" a few times but nothing happened. The man stamped his feet and hurried back to the back room.

After a while, the shopkeeper came in a hurry.

Li Zicheng asked again, "Is there any good fortune and tranquilizing gold that can't grab Dali Pill?"

The shopkeeper glanced at the door to the left and right and replied hurriedly: "Yes, yes, but the price is expensive. One pill costs five taels of silver."

"Do you want to sell the ten taels of silver?"

"Why is it so expensive?"

"It's not expensive, it's not expensive. As long as it's true, I'm willing to spend more money."

The shopkeeper immediately gestured, "Raise your glass to the bright moon!"

Li Zicheng returned the gesture, "Drink isatis root together!"

The shopkeeper cupped his fists and said, "Master, please come in."

This is a pharmacy opened by Shen Xiaoxier. In addition to helping to purchase medicinal materials, she also works part-time to inquire about information.

Li Zicheng had a secret conversation with the shopkeeper, then turned and left.

Then he went into an ironware store to inquire about the news. It was a shop opened by Jia Fugui, a local tycoon in Duanshi Town.

It was noon after finding out the details of Thanh Hoa Town, so a few people went to a restaurant to have a good meal.

The miscellaneous mix is ​​delicious; there is also the freshly cooked pork head, which is sandwiched with sesame seed cakes and takes a bite, making your mouth full of oil.

After eating and drinking, Li Zicheng and others were about to walk to the inn, when a young man popped out halfway.

"Hard work," the young man said in greeting, cupping his hands.

If you have a hard time meeting someone, you must be a Jianghu person.

Dang Shousu stood in front of the commander-in-chief, clasped his fists and returned the greeting, "Hard work, hard work."

The younger generation asked: "How many brothers do you have in your family?"

Dang Shousu replied: "He who looks after the mountains and his business and eats at home."

The descendants reminded: "The word "合" is a sign of "he". If there are poles in this secret, it is also the land of the Xiang family on all sides."

He glanced at Li Zicheng again and said, "Look for Jin Fuliu on the plate beam, let's talk about it."

Dang Shousu thanked him and left with his hands behind his back.

Li Zicheng couldn't figure it out. I wore a hat to cover my short hair and looked upright. How could I be seen as a Jianghu person?

But here we are, how can we make a fuss if the business is not open?

Li Zicheng and others slept in the inn until dark. Then they went out and went to the Dawang Temple to squat until midnight.

"Commander, can we borrow money by inviting the rich man to tea?"

"It's useless to 'please' me. You may not even be able to 'borrow' a single coin. Only if you 'please' your son can I pay for it quickly."

"It makes sense."

The moon and stars were sparse, and four dark figures came to the rich man's mansion. They climbed up the wall using a ladder.

There are no dogs in the house, but the guards are vigilant.

Several "thieves" were discovered immediately.

"Friends on the collapsed cage should not be disturbed. If there are poles and hanging rods in the kiln, you can only ask for them from afar, not from close by."

Li Zicheng secretly felt depressed.

Seeing that the thief didn't move, the nurse shouted: "Please come to the collapsed cage and chew a toothpaste plate."

Dang Shousu asked: "What pole are you leaning on? What mountain are you leaning on?"

The nurse replied loudly: "I rely on the support of my ancestor, and I rely on my friends whose loyalty is as strong as a mountain of gold. When it comes to eating and drinking, we will move mountains. If we don't have loyalty, we can't go to Liangshan."

While the two were making incisions, lanterns and torches were swaying in the yard, and seven or eight more guards came running.

The wealthy family was not originally so well-guarded, but the news that a hero had arrived in the town could not be hidden from the Jianghu people, so it was like this.

The leader said loudly: "Friend, you can eat all over the world from the bowl of rice left by our ancestor. Please give this place to your junior brother."

Li Zicheng took a closer look and took advantage of the light to see the other person's face clearly. He was actually an acquaintance!?

Xing Xihuai saw that the thief was still not leaving, so he said firmly: "Friend, since you have a supporter here, you should value your righteousness and go to ask for it from afar. If you don't pull it, it will be bulging and it will be difficult to move. There is a blue dragon taking out the garbage, cutting and twisting it." There are fierce tigers, there are high mountains in the Yangtze River, and there are big rivers in the dense mountains. If you fly like a steamer, a green ball flies over a piece of paper, my green tree will be green, and the flower strips will slide up, which is also a shuttle."

Li Zicheng had no choice but to wave his hand, "Zhahu!"

Four "thieves" climbed down the wall.

Xing Xihuai said louder: "Friends go with the wind, and we will not see the blue sky until the sky is clear. We will eat the kiln in the Yalin kiln, and then touch the plate."

Li Zicheng returned without success and continued to squat in the temple in disgrace. In order to prevent his image from collapsing, the commander-in-chief had to patiently explain the reason to the minions.

After dawn, the four of them came to the teahouse near the mansion. There was an empty teacup on the left side of the table.

Xing Xihuai found him soon.

"Big...brother, is that you?"

He really didn't expect that the rebel leader who had thousands of soldiers in July would now come to climb over the wall and become a petty thief? Was he suppressed by the army? What a misfortune! He deserved it!

Li Zicheng smiled and said, "Sit down and talk."

The two started chatting.

As the saying goes, the poor in culture and wealth in military affairs.

How can people who don't have enough to eat practice any real kung fu? Children from rich families can't stand that hardship.

Kung Fu needs to be practiced in the winter and in the summer. Once you become lazy, your condition will immediately decline.

Martial arts are too easy to lose effectiveness. It is tiring and hard to practice, and you have to persevere. If there is no benefit, only the devil will practice it.

Compared with professional competitive athletes, Chuanwu's training volume and training methods are simply unparalleled.

Don't trust any old folk masters either. As you get older, your physical fitness will inevitably decline, so boxing is something you should be afraid of when you are young.

When it comes to weapons, the older ones may have more skills and it is still possible to have an advantage.

Unarmed fighting is incomparable. Li Zicheng can defeat them all with one hand.

Wang Zongyue taught Tai Chi and Jiang Fa. Lao Jiang's family was not rich either, so the few disciples he taught were mostly used as bodyguards to protect the courtyard, making ends meet in troubled times.

There are roughly four paths for folk warriors: protecting the courtyard as a bodyguard, teaching boxing and martial arts, becoming a bandit after falling out of grass, and performing arts on the ground.

Li Zicheng inquired about Chen Wangting, a large landowner in Wen County, and Xing Xihuai said that he practiced Shaolin Kung Fu and that his senior brother Chen Jingbai worked as a nurse at his house.

There are quite a few warriors in the nearby area, and it has something to do with a temple.

There is a Qianzai Temple in Tangcun more than ten miles away. It was built in the Eastern Han Dynasty and was originally called Wuji Temple. Because Emperor Taiwu of the Wei Dynasty destroyed Buddhism, it was renamed Wuji Temple; in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, it was renamed Qianzai Temple.

Its east neighbor is the Sansheng Temple, dedicated to Fuxi, King Wen, and Confucius; further east is the Taiji Palace, which contains the Laojun Hall, Taiji Hall, Yaowang Hall, etc.

There is a small lake called Boao Lake in the south of the temple, which is also known as Fuxi Guanyu Lake. There is a Zhouyi Temple beside the lake, which contains many scriptures.

There are also the Heavenly King Hall, the Great Buddha Hall, the Main Hall, the Wuji Hall, the Three Churches, the Zen Tao School, the Martial Arts Hall and the Forest of Steles, etc. These buildings are connected to the left and right, collectively known as the Qianzai Temple, covering a total area of ​​more than 500 acres, and are commonly known as "Qianzai Temple".

"Wuqing Temple". This is a typical place where the three religions are harmonious, where believers live in harmony and incense flourishes.

Celebrities from past dynasties came here in droves. Liu Che, Li Shimin, Sun Simiao, Wang Chongyang and so on.

In the Tang Dynasty, the abbot of Qianzai Temple was named Shili Monk, and when he traveled abroad, he also took the name Li Daozi. He practiced both civil and military medicine, Yi Yi and other arts, and created the Wuji health-preserving Kung Fu. Kung Fu has been passed down for thousands of years, and various martial arts have evolved. The local martial arts hall alone is

There are four.

At the same time, Qianzai Temple was also the distribution center for Hongdong immigrants in the Ming Dynasty.

For example, the Li family.

"The ancestor's concubine, the Wang family, gathered in the shade of the big locust tree of Guangji Temple and moved to Qianzai Temple in Heyi. In response to the government, a department was set up to welcome the move. The people moved down the mountain in different directions, and the same foot tide entered Qianzai Temple. Three

Holy Gate, Taiji Palace, tea room in the neighboring thatched cottage..."

"...Li Qingjiang lives in Fenghuang Village, Hongdong County, Shanxi. Li Qingjiang is married to the Wang family. In the fourth year of Hongwu's reign, he moved to Tangcun, Huaifu, Hanoi, and his younger brother Li Qinghe came to live in Liwa Village with him..."

"The ancestor Li Gong tabooed the Qingjiang River and Chen Gong in Changyang Village, Heyi (Chenjiagou, Wen County) tabooed divination, Hezhuang Chen Gong tabooed Hou, Li Wa, Li Gong tabooed Qinghe, Liu Village, Jiang Gong tabooed the ceremony, and stayed with each other on the way.

Food and clothing, goodwill, going to temples to worship saints and bonding..."

The five sworn brothers also planted "Erbaijia grapes" in front of the temple as a souvenir, and they came here to gather every year. Over the past hundred years, the two surnames Chen and Li have been intermarried from generation to generation, and their descendants have been practicing literature and martial arts in the temple for thousands of years, and talents have emerged in large numbers.

"Therefore, my surname is Li, Rifan, and I am quite wealthy... I raise supervisors and pay tribute to civil and military scholars, so I can't count them... The fifth ancestor made a secret of Taoism, lived in Huaifu, opened a feather and arrow shop, and was famous for recruiting martial heroes; the sixth ancestor made a secret of Congliang,

The first middle-ranking official is the annual tribute, Huixian's edict, and he has meritorious service in both civil and military affairs; the seventh generation ancestor is a political practitioner, a Jinshi in the first division, a resourceful and strategic person, and an honest and honest administration..."

Li Chunmao, the eighth generation, entered Qianzai Temple, Sanshengmen and Taiji Palace after receiving the tribute. He studied martial arts with Bo Gong, practiced boxing, sword crossing, read the stars, read the art of war, promoted the unity of the three religions, discussed Wuji health-preserving skills, and created the Thirteen Movements.

(Style) Boxing, Sword, Spear Skills, Traveling and Teaching Boxing in Jin, Shandong, Shaanxi, Zhejiang, Huguang, and became famous in several provinces.

End of narration.

At the front, Xing Xihuai was worried that he would not be able to deal with the "thieves", so he sought help from his fellow martial artists overnight.

So Li Chunmao took his disciples, disciples and grandsons, as well as twenty or thirty heroes from three mountains and five mountains who gathered at Qianzai Temple, and came with knives and guns to support the scene.

If Xing Xihuai cannot reconcile with the "thief", then he will break the cup as a sign...

However, Xiao Xing never expected that the "thief" was actually the commander-in-chief of the revolutionary army whom Jiangzhou had met.

There is no acquaintance without fighting. Although the two parties do not have a close relationship, they can get along well in terms of face. Naturally, neither party will embarrass the other.

Then Li Chunmao came in and had a cup of tea with the commander-in-chief.

"I heard that my brother is very good at fighting?"

"Just average, third in the world!"

"..." Li Chunmao glanced at Xing Xihuai and said in his heart that your brother is playing handstand with the heifer.

"Who did you learn from, brother?"

"Create your own magical skills. Punch the tiger in the south mountain and kick the black dragon in the north sea!"

"..." Li Chunmao was speechless.

There are three bowls of noodles in Hunjianghu: face, affection, and scene.

People who practice martial arts always give people the impression that they are rude. But in fact, martial arts practice pays great attention to moral cultivation, especially oral morality.

It can't be said that it was a peaceful time in ancient times. Warriors live in danger. If you don't pay attention to your oral ethics, you will inevitably end up in chaos. In this way, you may lose your life inexplicably while walking in the rivers and lakes.

The same is true for those who show off their skills, as well as escort agencies, etc. On the road, there are only a handful of people who simply rely on force to solve problems, and they mainly go around the docks.

Those warriors with well-developed limbs and simple minds can only survive in the prosperous age.

But Li Chunmao didn't know that the powerful young man in front of him was not a member of the Jianghu.

No matter who he is, he has come to the door and made arrogant remarks, so there is nothing to say, he must make a few gestures.

Li Zicheng readily accepted the challenge.

Arriving at a secluded open space, Li Chunmao's eldest son Li Lun took the lead.

The young man's hands are like a tiger attacking a sheep.

Li Zicheng moved forward with his hands and feet, jumped forward, ducked down, hugged his legs, lifted up hard, and threw the opponent aside.

"Concession!"

"Is there such a way to fight?" The onlookers were confused.

Two more local warriors came into the battle. Li Zicheng used his fists and legs to deal with them neatly.

The fourth person to challenge was Ji Jike, a guest from Puzhou, Shanxi.

What this young man studied in Qian Zai Temple was "The Mysterious Records of the Martial Scriptures".

Ji Ji can make a bear come out of the cave, the heart moves and the tiger leaves the nest.

Li Zicheng stepped aside and kicked him in the waist.

Xiaoji punched her foot with her front hand, and at the same time tried to step forward.

Li Zicheng took a step back.

"Okay!" Li Chunmao cheered.

If one of the two parties responds even half a beat slower, he will fall down on the spot.

Li Zicheng followed up with a right hook.

Xiao Ji crosses her hands to hang the sun and moon, clicks her left hand to hit Taishan with her elbow, and clicks her right hand to fill the sea with her elbow, using the "Tiger Baotou".

Protect your head with one hand, put the other hand on your chin, and use your open hand to fight back.

Li Zicheng closed his fist and tilted his head, jumping to the side again. He was not wearing gloves, and the opponent was not wearing braces either. A heavy punch might cause problems. Lao Li did not dare to let go too much, just play with the opponent. .

After the two played more than a dozen moves, Li Zicheng threw Xiao Ji over his shoulder and knocked her down.

When everyone was trading chickens, Li Zicheng hooked up with them.

"When the sun rises in the east, I am the only one who is undefeated!"

"Come here! I'm going to fight ten of them!"

"..." Everyone gasped for twenty or thirty breaths.

Li Chunmao looked heavy and nodded, and dust began to fly on the field.

The audience——

The original fourth son of Li Chunmao has now been adopted by his brothers; he has just married a girl from the Chen family; he is a cousin to Chen Wangting - Li Yan, who is dazzled. 1 Li Xin, Zi Yan. The big guys have not found this person in their research on history. They are not particular about it. .

If the short-haired fist is used, the person will be knocked down, and if the foot is used, the person will be lying down.

Li Yan couldn't help but wiped away the cold sweat, "Awesome!"

On the eighteenth day of that year, at the Qinghua Martial Arts Conference, Li Yan stood like a henchman.
