Chapter 30 Difficulties in getting started with Diamond Zen
“Well, why does this one look bigger than the one yesterday!”
The wild boar raised its head and twitched its nose a few times. It smelled strange.
“Here.” Wang An clapped his hands.
The wild boar turned to look at Wang An. Wild boars are territorial, and now that Wang An has broken into its territory, it sees him as an intruder.
The wild boar was stunned for a moment and then rushed towards Wang An. After charging, the speed became faster and faster, and soon it reached Wang An's side.
Wang An dodged.
The wild boar suddenly passed by him, brought up a gust of wind, turned around and charged again.
In the narrow forest, wild boars rush and Wang An hides.
Some people fight bullfights, others fight pigs.
This is actual combat, what you have to practice is body technique, and what you have to practice is reaction.
Wang An just dodged and did not fight back.
Four times in a row, there was another movement in the woods, and another wild boar appeared.
“Two?”
Wang An narrowed his eyes slightly. The risk of facing two wild boars at the same time is definitely greater and much greater than one.
Come!
Wang An waved to them.
Hmph, hum, two wild boars rushed towards him, one on the left and one on the right.
Wang An's waist sank, and his feet were sucked to the ground like suckers.
With a sudden flash, a wild boar hit the air. The moment it hit the ground, it was full of strength, and its body was as agile as an ape. With a twist and a flash, a second wild boar rushed past.
Huh, hiss, half of the heart dropped.
Just like when you face a wild boar for the first time, you gain confidence after evading it the first time.
Come again!
So a strange scene happened in the forest. Two wild boars kept charging at Wang An, but he dodged them time and time again.
This is an exercise of eyesight, reaction, and courage. A slight mistake may result in injury, or death in serious cases.
Looking down from above, I saw two wild boars circling around Wang An, charging at each other. Wang An was as nimble as an ape and as light as a bird. Although the two wild boars were fast, they could not touch him.
After a while, the two wild boars actually stopped chasing him and ate their food. It looked like they were very tired.
“Come on, continue.” Wang An looked at the two wild boars.
Come,
Two wild boars rushed over again, but their speed was already slower than at the beginning.
Wang An's body sank, then flashed, and he slapped a wild boar with one hand. Then he turned around very quickly and slapped another wild boar with his backhand.
The two wild boars flew out almost at the same time. They landed on the ground with a clang and rolled several times. One hit a big tree and the other hit a rock. Screams were made at the same time.
“Peggy, George, are you okay?”
The two wild boars howled on the ground for a moment, then got up and ran towards the forest.
“You just had a friendly discussion with two wild boars. I believe this is a very meaningful thing.” The prompt appeared again.
"Yes, it is indeed a very meaningful thing." Wang Anxin said.
He cleaned up the weeds and dust on his body and went down the mountain with satisfaction.
In the next few days, in addition to teaching his grandma and grandpa to practice Wu Qin Xi at home and practicing Tai Chi himself, he would go to the mountains every day to find wild boars to practice with.
Sometimes it was one, sometimes two. At most, he faced three wild boars at the same time, and that one was also the most dangerous one.
During the wild boar sparring process, his footwork has made great progress.
“Tai Chi experience +15.”
“Tai Chi experience +10.”
“Xingyiquan experience +20.”
If practicing in the swimming pool is about calmness and strength, what you practice in the forest with wild boars is about speed and flexibility.
When it comes to straightness, Xingyiquan is better, but when it comes to lightness and changeability, Tai Chi is more subtle, and Tai Chi is not blindly slow, it can also be fast, and when it is fast, it is fast!
After several days in a row, these wild boars stopped attacking him when they saw him. Instead, they actively avoided him and hid when they smelled him. They seemed to be frightened by the torment.
"Well, I actually took the initiative to avoid it. Who said pigs are stupid? Isn't this quite smart?" Wang Anxin said.
“But this won’t work. If you don’t come over, how can I practice and improve?”
So the wild boars didn’t bother him. He took the initiative to cause trouble for the wild boars and went directly to their lair, forcing them to fight.
“After a period of special practice (sparring with wild boar), your body’s agility and reaction have improved to a certain extent.”
Time passes like this day by day.
With the practice of Wu Qin Xi during this period, his grandfather’s waist seemed to be less painful, which shows that Wu Qin Xi is still effective in treating this disease and relieving pain.
The old man may have felt changes in his body, or maybe he has almost formed a habit in the past ten days. He will practice Wu Qin Xi every day without Wang An urging him.
“You have practiced Wu Qin Xi for a period of time, and your body’s muscle strength, strength, endurance, body flexibility, digestion capacity and other aspects have been enhanced to a certain extent.”
Early this morning, while Wang An was practicing Wu Qin Xi, such a reminder suddenly appeared.
He remembered that he had received a similar reminder nearly two months ago. Since then, his appetite had increased by leaps and bounds, and his strength had also begun to increase rapidly.
Unexpectedly, I received another reminder two months later.
“It seems that the beauty of Wu Qin Xi is not just that it can strengthen the body and prolong life as found on the Internet, but it can really change a person’s physique, similar to the effect of rebirth.”
During these ten days, Wang An would take some time to read the "Vajra Zen" every day.
He has now firmly imprinted the practice method and the three palm techniques in his mind.
Every day he had to practice according to the exercises recorded in the ancient book, waving his hands hundreds of times, but he still didn't see the system prompts.
“Did I practice incorrectly, or did I just run out of time?” Wang An was a little confused.
He thought it would be easier to get started. After all, he had a foundation in Tai Chi and Xingyi Quan, but he was still unable to get started.
This is also the first time he has encountered such a problem.
Not only has he been unable to get started with "Vajra Zen", but he also seems to have encountered a bottleneck in Tai Chi. He practices it every day, but the experience bar increases very slowly, like a tortoise crawling.
At this rate, we don’t know when it will be upgraded again. It may take many years.
“Don’t be in a hurry, take your time.”
Wang An has a good attitude. In his opinion, practicing Kung Fu is just a matter of time and effort. You should not be impatient. Sometimes you make rapid progress, and progressing too fast is not necessarily a good thing.
