Chapter 21 Watching the Tiger
"Wang An, we have been together for so long, can we be considered friends?" Li Xinzhu said.
“Of course.” Wang An smiled and nodded.
After getting along with him these days, Wang An felt that Li Xinzhu was quite a good person. What was even more rare was that he was willing to practice with him and was almost always available.
“Then do you think friends should express something to each other?”
“Let’s practice Sanshou, learn from each other, and make progress together, wouldn’t it be great? Oh, I understand, I’ll treat you tonight.” Wang An said with a smile
“It’s a must to treat guests, I mean friends should treat each other sincerely.”
“What do you mean?” Wang An was startled when he heard this.
"Look, my arm is swollen, and you don't want to explain what happened to those slaps you just slapped me with. You understood the method of Tai Chi to release force a few days ago, and now you understand the method of Tai Chi to exert force. ?”
“Yeah.” Wang An nodded.
“I believe there are geniuses in this world, such as myself.
But your progress is too fast. You can catch up with others after several months of practice, as if you were possessed by Master Zhang. This is obviously unscientific, is there any trick? "
“Is this it? Practice more, read more books, think hard, learn knowledge from books and videos, and combine knowledge with practice.
Summary often, every week or every month, and accumulate experiences and lessons. There needs to be planning and targeted practice.
You must have an innovative spirit and divergent thinking, and dare to innovate and try. "Wang An carefully described his practice experience in summary.
“Stop, stop, stop.” Li Xinzhu rubbed his temples. He felt that his brain hurt a little.
“I can understand the idea of absorbing knowledge from books, combining knowledge with cultivation, being planned and targeted.
What the **** is innovation and divergent thinking? We are practicing kung fu, not doing scientific research. "
“Let me give you an example. You usually practice boxing in a boxing gym. Can you go to other places, such as rivers, lakes and seas?
How did Banbu Bengquan hit the world? It was practiced while wearing shackles in a prison cell.
Have you ever thought about practicing Xingyi Quan while wearing shackles? Is it okay to hang steel blocks or chains without shackles?
There are also some boxing champions who go to the zoo to practice boxing with animals such as orangutans or kangaroos to practice their reflexes. You can also give it a try! "
Li Xinzhu stayed there, his mind buzzing.
“Zoo?”
Bang, Wang An suddenly clapped his hands.
"Why didn't I think of it earlier? You think about it first, I'll leave first." After saying this, Wang An turned around and left.
“Hey, where are you going?” Li Xinzhu asked subconsciously.
“Zoo.”
“Zoo, what are you going there for?”
“Of course I want to see animals, see tigers, bears, monkeys...”
“You’d better go to the hospital first and have a look at your brain!” Li Xinzhu, who came back to his senses, shouted at Wang An’s back.
“What kind of random thoughts are these? Isn’t this a mental illness? I’m going crazy in my practice!”
“Hey, you promised to treat me to dinner tonight, I like seafood!”
Ten minutes later, Li Xinzhu started practicing Xingyi Quan with dumbbells on his back.
Wang An actually went to the zoo after coming out of the martial arts hall. He wanted to see tigers, bears, apes, deer, and birds. Watching their postures might be helpful for his Five Animals show.
Outside Tiger Mountain, Wang An looked at the tiger below, lying lazily on the ground and not moving much.
"Guys, don't lie down all the time. If you have nothing to do, stand up and take a few steps."
He stared at the tiger carefully, watching the tiger walk slowly and leisurely.
The king of beasts, he walks calmly and shows his dominance. As he moves, muscles are visible to the naked eye under his fur.
Wang An tried hard to imprint the tiger's every move in his mind. Then imitate the tiger's movements.
It's o'clock, and it's such a cold weather. There are not many tourists, but there are keepers in the zoo.
A manager saw Wang An from a distance practicing Wu Qin Xi with the tiger.
“Who is that person, and what are they doing there?”
It was not until the zoo closed in the afternoon that the administrator came over and called him out, and Wang An reluctantly left.
“You have observed tigers, which will help you practice Wu Qin Xi. Wu Qin Xi experience +20.”
It really works!
“Well, I always feel like there’s still something to do.” Wang An came out of the zoo and said to himself while pedaling his bicycle.
“Forget it.”
Just as he was about to return to his residence, his cell phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Li Xinzhu.
“Hey, what’s the matter?”
“It’s not me, but you. Have you forgotten something?”
“Hey, how do you know? I always feel like there is something I haven’t done.”
“There is such a person. He talks nicely for two and a half hours and asks for a treat. Then he goes to the zoo to see the animals. Is the monkey nice?”
“Oh, remember, what do you want to eat? How about we have a buffet?” Wang An said with a smile. He now remembered that he agreed to Li Xinzhu’s treat tonight.
“Okay, I happen to know a good cafeteria, and I’ll send you the address soon.”
Twenty minutes later, Wang An and Li Xinzhu were sitting in a relatively upscale-looking cafeteria.
“The seafood buffet here is more unique, but the price is a little higher. You won’t regret it, right?” Li Xinzhu asked tentatively.
“I don’t regret it, it will be them who will regret it when the time comes.” Wang An said with a smile.
“That’s okay, let’s go, let’s get something to eat.”
After a while, Li Xinzhu brought back a lot of seafood in a small bucket, such as swimming crabs, small green dragons, and Pipi shrimps.
Wang An also brought back some meat, vegetables, and fruits.
“Wait a minute, are you going to eat these things?” Li Xinzhu looked at the food Wang An brought back and was stunned.
“What’s wrong? Is there a problem? Is the food not fresh? It looks fine to me.”
“It’s not a question of whether it’s fresh or not. Are you here to bring warmth to others? To be honest, this is the first time I’ve seen a seafood buffet with so many vegetables. What do you think?”
“Are you going to eat? It’s a combination of meat and vegetables, and it’s nutritious.”
“Okay, it’s your treat anyway, I don’t care.” Li Xinzhu said with a smile.
Then he put the seafood in the pot and steamed it.
“Eat so much seafood, be careful of high uric acid levels, which may lead to gout.”
“My level of activity is fine. Can I drink some white beer?”
“Don’t drink.” Wang An shook his head decisively.
"If you don't drink, I will drink." Li Xinzhu went to get a bottle of liquor and poured it himself.
Just during this time, he found that the food Wang An brought back was less than half.
“Are the vegetables here so delicious?”
Wang An didn't care about him and just ate by himself.
