Chapter 89 Golden Summit Sunrise
“Oh, can the layman show me something?”
The Taoist priest became interested after hearing this. In the past, he always performed kung fu for tourists and took photos with tourists, but no one had ever exchanged light kung fu with him. It was rare to meet one today. It was really rare.
"Show, let's change the place?" Wang An looked at the tourists next to him. He didn't want to attract too much attention here.
"Here, layman, please." The Taoist led him to a relatively secluded place in the backyard.
Wang An looked around, and his eyes fell on a courtyard wall not far away. He raised his legs and walked quickly to the bottom of the wall. He slightly bent and kicked, and all his strength was poured into his feet and then exploded. He rose up from the ground. Suddenly he ran up the courtyard wall.
Then he walked quickly on the courtyard wall, walked seven or eight meters, and then jumped off the wall.
“What do you think, Taoist Priest?”
The Taoist priest was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses.
“The donor developed his skills by walking bricks and urns?”
“Exactly.”
The Taoist priest was silent for a long time after hearing this, "Can you master this skill of walking bricks?"
If nothing else, he just couldn't do that one stretch up the wall.
After thinking for a while, he asked Wang An for advice on how to move bricks and cylinders. After listening to Wang An's explanation, he also told Wang An his daily practice methods.
The method is to walk on rocks and soil slopes, practice plum blossom piles, and some methods of breathing luck and exerting force.
The two chatted for a long time, and Taoist Yuan also talked about some Taoist Kung Fu tips. Wang An benefited a lot, and the two even left their contact information.
[You had an exchange with Daochang Yuan and learned a lot. ]
The prompt appears again.
“Taoist Master, where can I go if I want to learn Tai Chi?”
“There are some kung fu studios teaching Tai Chi at the foot of the mountain, and there are also several on the mountainside.”
“Is it real Tai Chi?” Wang An then asked.
The Taoist priest Yuan was slightly startled when he heard the words, and immediately understood the meaning of Wang An's words.
"Some people grew up in this mountain and practiced martial arts since childhood. They have some real abilities, but some people are hard to say." Taoist Yuan said.
“Excuse me, Master, which martial arts school can learn true Tai Chi?”
The Taoist priest pondered for a moment and said the names of the two kung fu halls.
“Thank you, Taoist Master.”
"Pindao also made an appointment with some senior brothers tonight, so I'm going to say goodbye first. There are many scenic spots in this mountain, and the sunrise on the Golden Summit is particularly magnificent. I won't let you stay for a few more days." Taoist Yuan told Wang An about the place where he practiced. It is convenient to give a gift and leave.
Wang An also slowly walked down the mountain while looking at the scenery around him.
I saw a Kung Fu gym on the lower part of the mountainside, with three rows of bungalows and two big trees in the middle. A man wearing a dark blue Taoist robe was teaching a dozen teenagers to practice kung fu.
Zhamabu, punching.
“One, two!”
Wang An looked at the name of the kung fu gym and pushed the door in. When the Taoist saw him coming in, he stopped and walked up to him.
“Hello, what can I do?”
This Taoist priest looks to be in his thirties, not tall, with his hair tied into a Tai Chi bun, a round face, big eyes, and a mustache.
“Hello, I’m here to ask for some Kung Fu advice.” Wang An said with a smile.
“Oh, you want to learn Kung Fu?”
“I want to learn Tai Chi, real Tai Chi.” Wang An said.
The Taoist Priest was stunned for a moment after hearing this. The dozen teenagers behind him stopped and looked here curiously.
“Don’t stop, keep practicing, Ah Hai, you take the lead.” The Taoist priest shouted, and a teenage boy came out in front to lead them to continue practicing boxing.
“Real Tai Chi? I wonder what this layman means?”
“It’s just real skill, not a show-off.”
“I’ll teach you real kung fu here, but it’s not the kind in movies and novels. You can strengthen your body, but you can’t knock someone out several meters with one palm, or fly up with a single jump.” The Taoist priest said with a smile.
“Can I help the Taoist priest?”
“Okay.” The Taoist priest hesitated for a moment, then assumed a Tai Chi push-hands posture.
Wang An waved his hand casually, looking loose and weak.
The two of them clapped their hands together, and the Taoist priest's expression changed. After two rounds of pushing hands, the Taoist priest's heart was already filled with waves.
“Where does this person come from? He is so good at Tai Chi Push Hands. He has mastered the method of releasing force in Tai Chi. This Tai Chi seems to be above me. Could he be here to kick the gym and ruin the place?”
Wang An took the initiative to move away after a few moves of pushing hands with fixed steps and moving steps.
“Thank you, Taoist Master, for your guidance.”
This Taoist priest is not the person Wang An is looking for. His attainments in Tai Chi should be similar to Yang Xianhua.
“You’re welcome, I didn’t expect that the layman is also a master of Tai Chi.” The Taoist said with a smile.
Just now I felt a little uneasy, worried that today would be difficult to end, but I didn't want to repeat it and I actually took the initiative to withdraw. I couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
“There are still some things I don’t understand about Tai Chi. Is there an expert on Taihe Mountain who can give me some advice?”
“Who is your respected teacher?”
“He is the leader of Taihe Sanfeng Sect, and his Taoist name is Qinghui.”
“Great, how can the Taoist priest meet the revered master?” Wang An asked hurriedly.
Before coming here, he specifically checked the information and knew the name of this Taoist priest. He heard that this Taoist priest had gone to Zhongyue Faxing Temple to practice martial arts for several years earlier, which was equivalent to practicing martial arts from both Buddhism and Taoism. , I think he is really capable.
“My master went down the mountain to visit friends a few days ago. I don’t know when he will be back.” The Taoist priest’s answer made Wang An a little disappointed.
“Then are there any boxing books in the mountains that I can borrow?”
“There is a place in the mountains that hides some ancient books, but they are not open to tourists, and only a few people know about it. Some of the ancient books I read were borrowed from the master. They must be kept well and returned regularly.”
“Does the Taoist priest know where those ancient books are stored?”
The Taoist smiled and shook his head.
"Thank you, Taoist Master." Seeing that he refused to say anything, Wang An didn't say thank you anymore and turned around to leave.
The Taoist leader stood there, watching his back disappear on the mountain road, thoughtfully, while the children practicing boxing on the side suddenly gathered around him.
“Master, who was that person just now?”
“A layman who goes up the mountain.”
“Master, were you competing with him just now? Who lost and who won?”
“It’s just a friendly discussion, there is no winner or loser.” The Taoist said with a smile.
“If there was a fight, I would probably not be his opponent.”
It was completely dark when Wang An arrived at the foot of the mountain. He went to Taihe Mountain today and saw a lot of scenic spots and some Taoist priests practicing boxing and meditating, but he didn't see the people he wanted to see.
However, he did not feel discouraged. Before coming, he had thought that this matter would not be smooth sailing. It was not in vain to see the beautiful scenery and historical sites in the mountains today.
The next day it was still dark, so he got up early and prepared to go up the mountain to watch the sunrise. The weather forecast says it will be sunny today.
It was still dark when he got up. At this time, many rooms in the hotel where he stayed had lights on. There were many tourists who had the same idea as him and wanted to go up the mountain early to watch the sunrise. .
Wang An set off after eating something. The weather is still a bit cold, and I occasionally see pedestrians in twos and threes on the mountain road, and there are bunches of lights.
In a crowded place, Wang An controlled his pace appropriately. Seeing that there was no one around, he picked up speed.
Unknowingly, we were halfway up the mountain. The mountain road became steeper and steeper. There were constant steps to the First and Second Heaven Gates, and Wang An walked as fast as he could.
In a forest, a man was hiding behind a tree and was lifting his pants. Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past his eyes and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
“Hold the grass!” The man shuddered.
He stood there, not daring to move. His mind went blank. He stood there for five minutes before slowly coming back to his senses.
“That was a ghost just now? No, this is a Taoist holy land. How can there be ghosts in Emperor Zhenwu’s dojo? I must have been blinded by what I saw. I’ve been a little tired recently.”
He was still shivering when he came out of the woods.
Wang An was walking vigorously. Not long after walking, a steep staircase stood in front of him. It was the famous Hundred-step Ladder.
superior,
His foot kicked, and the person rushed out in a whoosh. He crossed more than two meters in one step. When he landed, his body leaned forward, and the sole of his foot touched the ground. The person then rushed up again, like an ape climbing a mountain.
At this time, two more people came down, a man and a woman.
“I’m telling you, if you want to watch the sunrise, it’s more convenient to live on the top of the mountain. Don’t worry about the money. We come all the way here, and we don’t come every day. Let’s go, this is the famous hundred-step ladder.
Hand the grass, what the **** is that thing running so fast! "
As the man spoke, he subconsciously shined the flashlight in his hand. Feeling the light, Wang An looked back, and the light happened to fall on his face.
“Oh my God, there’s a ghost!”
The man shivered and dropped the flashlight to the ground with a click. Wang An, who had already walked halfway up the hundred-step ladder, turned around and quickly climbed up to the Golden Summit.
“I think it’s a person.” The woman on the side said softly.
“Can a person run so fast, as if he were flying on a hundred-step ladder?”
“Perhaps he is an expert who practices in the mountains!”
At this time, there were already some people on the top. Some of these people got up very early and climbed the mountain early. Some people lived on the top of the mountain at night, so they came earlier.
The place to watch the sunrise on the Golden Dome is actually not particularly spacious. There are a lot of people coming. Wang An looked around and couldn't find a place with less people.
He raised his head and looked at the buildings on the side, a palace several meters high.
“How about going up to that roof?”
As soon as this idea came up, it grew like a weed with a growth agent and could not be suppressed.
Wang An looked at the buildings next to the Golden Dome. To the west was a cliff. The walls were vertical and there seemed to be no way to go up.
He turned around and saw a stone railing on the side. He looked up at the wall and saw a strong point, like a small wedge, nearly four meters high.
While there was no one around, he jogged a few steps, jumped into the air, and landed on the stone railing. He bent his body, concentrated his strength on his right leg, and then suddenly bounced.
In an instant, he soared more than three meters into the air. He raised his hand to grab the point of strength and pulled hard. He exerted force on his waist and abdomen. The other person jumped up again. He raised his hand to grab the eaves of the roof and kicked off with his feet. He flipped over in mid-air. In an instant, the person fell on the roof.
The roof was a bit slippery, so he used both feet to hold on to the roof like suction cups, anchoring his body.
“Well, it’s better to stay here, stand high and see far.”
Wang An stood alone on this roof and looked to the east. There was a cliff in front of him and a golden palace behind him. He was not afraid of being seen unless he was standing very far away or taking aerial photography.
