Chapter 16: Ape arms, bee waist, mantis legs

After Hu Qi touched the bones, he was amazed.

"This is the first time I've seen such standard wasp-waisted, ape-armed and mantis legs since I learned how to touch bones. How old is Junior Brother Liang?"

"Fifteen is almost sixteen."

"Then you will grow a lot taller, say less than six feet in the future."

Dashun's foot should be no more than thirty centimeters, and at least six feet, that is, more than 1.8 meters.

Liang Qu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. He was not very well-nourished before and was not very tall now. He was still worried about whether he would grow taller.

Li Libo's face twisted when he heard this: "My teeth are so broken. Damn, you are so handsome and good-boned. No matter how good things happen to you, if you don't invite me to dinner today, I won't be done with you!"

Liang Qu responded casually: "Definitely next time."

Hu Qi continued: "You are also suitable for majoring in ape boxing, and you are also very suitable for archery. Junior Brother Liang can learn it if you have the opportunity in the future."

As soon as these words came out, both of them were stunned.

"Wait a minute, Senior Brother Hu, why is it that I am above average and suitable for Ape Fist, but he has good bones and is also suitable for Ape Fist?"

Hu Qi explained: "There are many kinds of good root bones, not just the wasp-waisted, ape-armed, and mantis-legged ones. This type of root bone is the most suitable for ape boxing. It can accumulate power like drawing a bow, and release power like releasing an arrow. It is powerful and fast." It is profound and strong, and of course the tiger shape is good, but the crane shape is not so good.”

"Junior Brother Li is a bit inferior in other areas, but with your long arm span, tiger-like strength, and crane-like lightness, you have no advantage, so you are also suitable for ape fist."

Liang Qu suddenly realized that he was suitable for Ape Fist because he had talent, and Li Libo was suitable for Ape Fist because he was not suitable for the other two disciplines.

Speaking of which, if I am suitable for Ape Fist, could it also be related to Water Monkey Ze Ling?

After merging with the water monkey Ze Ling, Liang Qu could feel changes in his body. Perhaps this was how his bones were changed.

Li Libo was a little discouraged, learning martial arts was not what he imagined.

Seeing this, Hu Qi said with relief: "Junior brother Li, don't be discouraged. Having a bad root bone doesn't mean anything. It doesn't limit our future. It doesn't say that a bad root bone will definitely break through slower than a good root bone. Junior Brother Liang, the root bone It’s better not to be complacent, it also does not determine our future.”

"Thank you, Senior Brother Hu, for your advice."

Hu Qi nodded and took out two books from his arms: "This is Master Yang's three boxing techniques. You can learn ape, tiger, and crane, but it's best to focus on what I said.

Do you know how to read? It doesn't matter if you don't. There are pictures on them. Just practice them in order. I will correct you next to you. "

It was so considerate. Liang Qu looked through the brochure and felt that everyone in the Yang Family Martial Arts School was talented and their words were nice. He loved it here.

The booklet has six parts, namely the refining and fighting methods of apes, tigers and cranes. Liang Quzhu looks at the refining methods and lays the foundation first.

The practice mainly relies on pile skills. Each of the three boxing methods has thirty-two postures. Some of them are the same, some are similar, and some are quite different.

You can learn three boxing techniques for seven taels of silver, which is quite worth it.

Liang Qu knew very well that listening to others' advice to eat enough food would lead to ape boxing, so he started practicing according to the pile techniques above.

He spread his legs apart, held his chest and straightened his back, lowered his shoulders and lowered his elbows, then tightened his abdomen and loosened his waist, pulled his hips and loosened his hips, and controlled his breathing.

"The foot is wrong. The center of the foot should be empty. It's too stiff."

"Yes, that's right."

"Junior brother Li, don't tense up, relax. Your movements are too stiff."

"The upper part is empty and the lower part is real, the body is empty and the pile is real, the virtual and the real are mutually reinforcing... Keep it still and try to let your body remember this posture."

Hu Qi was guiding from the side, and after confirming that one action was qualified, he started the next one.

In one morning, Liang Qu learned three pile exercises, while Li Libo only learned two.

It was past noon, and they had no choice but to go out to find food and find a foot shop. When they came back, they found someone bringing out a large wooden bucket from the backyard, which was filled with boiling liquid.

Some students came to the bucket, took a bowl and drank it all.

Li Libo stretched his head: "Is that medicine? Didn't it say that our boxing techniques also have matching prescriptions? Why didn't you see it?"

"Perhaps the value of the prescription is higher? Do martial arts schools rely on prescriptions to make money?" Liang Qu guessed.

"Hey, money will only be spent when it is used."

"There is no way. We are born at the bottom. If we want to change, we have to rely on ourselves. We can only learn a few more moves seriously in the afternoon."

In the afternoon, Liang Qu learned five more pile exercises and could perform them smoothly without guidance, while Li Libo only learned three.

When they left the martial arts gym at six o'clock, it was already dark. The two of them stopped taking a ride and chose to walk back to Yixing City.

After more than ten miles, almost half an hour, they reached the street and parted ways.

Liang Qu still went to a foot shop for dinner. It was no longer the same as the old three, but two meat, one vegetable and one rice. After practicing martial arts, he had to take more tonic.

The days passed.

With the foundation in place, Liang Qu studied faster and faster, and he was so focused that he didn't even socialize. So far, he only knows Hu Qi and Xiang Changsong in the martial arts gym.

With such hard work, it took him less than four days to learn all the postures of Ape Fist. At the same time, Li Libo only reached the twentieth level, which was a lot behind. It really corresponded to what Hu Qi said.

Seeing Liang Qu finish the last move, Hu Qi nodded: "I learned all the pile skills in less than four days. It can be said to be the fastest I have ever seen. Try to do it smoothly again."

"yes."

Liang Qu responded, then started from the first pile exercise to the last exercise, which took less than half an hour, smoothly and freely.

And when he was halfway through the fight, a trace of Qi slowly gathered in Liang Qu's body, flowing through his body with the movements, as if he had taken a hot bath, sweating profusely and exhausted at the same time.

This was an experience he had never had before. In the past, he only felt tired and hot after fighting.

"How is it? Did you feel a trace of Qi?"

"Yeah."

"You can feel Qi after one fight, which means that you, Junior Brother Liang, are full of Qi and blood, and have good talent. The appearance of Qi means that your Qi and blood are growing. When the Qi is as thick as a finger and the Qi and blood are like a tide, it means that you can refine your skin. As long as you break through the skin barrier, you will be truly reborn!"

Liang Qu immediately asked: "Break through the barrier, how do you break through it?"

"That involves medicine again. When it's time to break through the barrier, I will tell you in detail. Junior Brother Liang just needs to practice hard."

Hu Qi smiled and didn't say it clearly.

In fact, he didn't think the two junior brothers had any hope of breaking through the barrier.

It's not that he looked down on them, but that's the fact, and it's a matter of experience.

He himself is a butcher in Pingyang Town. His ancestors have killed so many pigs to achieve his current success.

Two fishermen without backgrounds have less income than ordinary farmers. It would be troublesome to talk about it, so it is better not to talk about it.

Liang Qu is not a person who breaks the casserole to get to the bottom of things. He just proposed to learn Tiger Fist and Zhuang Gong. There are some focuses, but it does not prevent him from learning more to broaden his horizons. Besides, the other two Zhuang Gong have similarities, so it will be faster to learn.

As long as he learns all the Zhuang Gong, he can practice by himself before refining the skin, without wasting time on the road of more than ten miles every day. It takes at least more than an hour to go back and forth, which means three Zhuang Gong again.

Hu Qi was not surprised: "Okay, then I will teach you the different 24 Zhuang Gongs in Tiger Fist."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Liang Qu finished learning a Tiger Fist Zhuang Gong, and then asked Hu Qi for leave, and then hurriedly left the martial arts hall under Li Libo's puzzled eyes.

The fat catfish in the spiritual connection told Liang Qu that it had found another treasure fish!
