Chapter 19 Tai Chi

Not long after, the boss looked up and exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my, sir, your figure is really great!

It is no exaggeration to say that you are definitely a top-notch handsome man! Actually, to be honest, my family used to specialize in bone-touching fortune-telling, which is similar to what you call divination here.

It's a pity that with the changing times, people no longer believe in this, so they had no choice but to switch to the clothing business. However, based on my many years of experience in bone palpation, your bone structure is perfect and standard!

I believe that after wearing the clothes in our store, your temperament and charm will be more prominent! "

With a faint smile on his face, Luo Lin listened quietly to his boss's endless and serious nonsense.

He knew very well that people who do business like this often like to talk nonsense and exaggerate. Although he was quite interested in the bone-touching technique mentioned by his boss, it was only at the level of curiosity.

After all, things like fortune-telling have always been elusive - knowing the result but not being able to change your fate, and not knowing the result makes you feel unhappy! It really doesn't have much practical significance.

After the measurements were completed, Luo Lin moved aside and waited patiently. As expected, the boss showed extraordinary professionalism and completed the clothing modification in less than half an hour.

At this moment, Luo Lin, wearing new clothes, looked just like a pampered young master from a prominent family, and he felt extremely satisfied with it.

After the transaction was completed, Luo Lin walked out of the exquisite clothing store with satisfaction. He walked briskly, as if his whole body was full of energy, and walked straight to a Sichuan restaurant located in Chinatown. This Sichuan restaurant has a small facade, but it reveals a unique charm.

Walking into the store, Luo Lin was attracted by the dazzling menu in front of him. The menu listed a variety of dishes, and each dish exuded an enticing aroma, which made him hungry.

Among them, there are a wide variety of dishes with spicy, sour and spicy flavors. For Luo Lin, who loves spicy food, these delicacies are undoubtedly a feast for the eyes and taste, making him salivate.

Luo Lin ordered a private room without hesitation, looking forward to enjoying delicious Chinese food here. Not long after, exquisite Chinese dishes were brought into the room like flowing water. The delicious dishes were placed on the table, like works of art, making people unable to resist their temptation.

Faced with such a sumptuous meal, Xiao Ke did not play dead. The two of them started eating quickly like hungry tigers. They devoured the food on the table like a whirlwind. However, even though they were already full, the feeling of satisfaction did not dissipate, and they felt that they were still not satisfied.

After eating and drinking, Luo Lin took Xiaoke out of the restaurant.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. Now, in order to exercise his body, he could only do radio gymnastics every day, but the effect was not very great. Besides food, the most talked-about thing of Chinese people was Kung Fu.

Now that you are in Chinatown, why not try to find some martial arts schools that teach martial arts? Whether it is the exciting "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" or the wonderful martial arts TV series by Jin Yong and Gu Long,

I was so immersed in it that I couldn't help myself. Especially the Tai Chi boxing performed by Zhang Sanfeng, who is known as the founder of Wudang Sect, was even more fascinating.

The boxing movements that flow naturally and smoothly like flowing clouds and water, as well as the changes in moves that contain endless mysterious philosophy, all make people amazed. And the popular formula:

“From Wuji comes Taiji, from Taiji movement comes Yang. From extreme movement comes stillness, from stillness comes Yin. From extreme stillness comes movement again…”, these words were engraved deeply in Luo Lin’s mind like a brand and could not be erased.

Whenever I think of this sentence, I seem to be able to feel a mysterious and powerful force surging in my body, inspiring me to pursue higher levels of martial arts.

Perhaps only by personally experiencing the feeling of fists and palms intersecting and the overflowing energy can one truly appreciate the profoundness of Chinese martial arts and make one's body stronger.

As he spoke, Luo Lin started to wander around here. On the way, he did see many martial arts schools, including Monkey Boxing, Mantis Boxing, and Hong Family Boxing. However, Luo Lin was only interested in Tai Chi. Isn't it said that "Tai Chi can bring peace to the world, and Bajiquan can determine the fate of the world."

Finally, Luo Lin saw a Tai Chi gym and walked in. Luo Lin couldn't help but exclaimed that there were only a dozen apprentices in twos and threes.

"Hello, little friend! I am the eldest brother of this martial arts school. My name is Chen Guang. Do you need any help?"

"Hello, Brother Chen, I'm here to watch you practice boxing. Is your gym owner here? I want to visit him!"

Looking at the cute child dressed elegantly, Chen Guang thought to himself that this was probably some young master from some family. "Then come with me!"

After Luo Lin entered the back hall, he was immediately attracted by the middle-aged man. He was wearing Tai Chi training clothes, and his demeanor was calm and he looked very majestic and elegant.

"Oh? Little boy, what do you want to talk to me about?" The middle-aged man put down the teacup and looked at Luo Lin with a smile.

Luo Lin stepped forward and said respectfully: "Hello, sir. I am very interested in Tai Chi!

Luo Lin clasped his hands together and bowed slightly. Seeing this, the old master also clasped his hands together to return the greeting. In Kung Fu, no matter how old you are, as long as one party bows, they must return the greeting. This is the rule.

"Little boy, are you interested in Tai Chi?" the old master asked with a smile.

"Yes, I want to learn Tai Chi." Luo Lin answered firmly.

"Why do you want to learn Tai Chi?" the old master asked.

"From Wuji comes Taiji, from Taiji movement comes Yang. From extreme movement comes stillness, from stillness comes Yin. From extreme stillness comes movement again, movement and stillness are the roots of each other. Yin is rooted in Yang, Yang is rooted in Yin, from Yin and Yang combine, all things come into being," Luo Lin said lightly!

"Okay, my name is Chen Chuanyou, and I am the successor of Chen-style Tai Chi. If you want to learn, I can teach you."

"Master Chen, could you please demonstrate it to me so that I can broaden my horizons?" Luo Lin knew that he was being a bit rude but he still said it!

Master Chen stared at Luo Lin but he was not angry. He stared at him for a long time and saw that Luo Lin did not retreat at all. There seemed to be a little golden light in his eyes. He shouted, "Good boy, you have some courage. Today I will personally demonstrate Chen Tai Chi. Watch carefully!"

Chen Chuanyou stood upright, lowered his shoulders and elbows, held his chest and straightened his back, and his moves were like flowing clouds and water, combining hardness and softness. Luo Lin watched intently and sighed in his heart: "How amazing!" After the set of punches, Chen Chuanyou's face was not red and he was not out of breath.

"How is it?" Chen Chuanyu looked at Luo Lin.

Luo Lin sincerely praised: "Master Chen, your boxing skills are really amazing!

"Then did you see it clearly?"

"I see clearly," Luo Lin replied

"Do you remember it?" Master Chen took a sip of tea and said softly

"I have forgotten half of it!"

Upon hearing this, Master Chen asked with burning eyes, "How is it now?"

Only Chen Guang looked at him with a puzzled look.

“I’ve forgotten most of it”

Master Chen became more and more excited. "What now?"

“I’ve forgotten all about it now.”

"Okay, okay, then you practice now."

Luo Lin closed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and let his breath sink to his dantian, as if he was gathering all the strength of his body.

Then every movement seemed steady and powerful, as solemn as Mount Tai; every grip contained endless mysteries, just like the mysteries of the universe. Yin and Yang blended with each other, the mysterious principles were revealed between movement and stillness, and the changes between speed and slowness were even more unpredictable.

This is the result of Luo Lin's soul research after a whole year of painstaking research - it can deeply imprint everything he has seen and heard in the deepest part of his soul, making it unforgettable.

Just like when Master Chen demonstrated just now, the exquisite boxing skills instantly attracted Luo Lin's full attention. His powerful soul will remember these wonderful scenes firmly in his mind.

Because of this, even though he knew it was a bit rude, Luo Lin still resolutely chose to do so. Because for him, this precious knowledge was too important and worth it to obtain at any cost.

After the rehearsal, Luo Lin clasped his hands together and bowed deeply.

Master Chen was very excited but also had mixed feelings when he saw this. Finally he said, "Go away. There is nothing more I can teach you here."

Luo Lin thought silently for a moment, then used magic to break the gem he got from the fairy into two, took out one half, and used magic to polish it into a round and flawless shape. He then handed it respectfully to Master Chen on the table and turned away.

Master Chen watched silently without saying a word. Just as Luo Lin was about to leave the back hall, Chen Guang called out, "What's your name?"

Luo Lin paused, said "My name is Luo Lin" and left.

"Master!" Chen Guang called out softly as he looked at his master who was in a trance!

"Write his name into the family tree." After saying this, Chen Chuanyu turned his back and left.

Luo Lin left the martial arts hall and had no intention of going any further. He raised his magic wand high, and soon a three-story Knight Bus came to him.

"Hey! Hello, young wizard! Where are you going?" A voice came from the front.

Luo Lin looked up and saw the driver wearing a pointed hat sitting in the driver's seat and looking at him with a smile.

"I'm going to Jurchen Road, thank you." Luo Lin replied politely.

"Oh, Jurchen Road, no problem. The fare is 11 silver Sickles in total, little wizard." The driver said as he stretched out his hand to take the silver coins handed over by Rowling.

"Okay, let's go now!" Luo Lin said after getting into the car and fastening his seat belt.

Then, there was a buzzing sound, and the magic bus began to move forward slowly. However, not long after, it suddenly accelerated and rushed forward like a wild horse.

Luo Lin held the handrail tightly, his body shaking constantly with the bumps of the vehicle. He tried to keep himself balanced, but the strong shaking still made him feel a little dizzy.

What's worse is that this road doesn't seem to be flat. Sometimes it's so narrow that people can hardly pass through, and sometimes it's as steep as a cliff. Every time he turns and goes up and down, Luo Lin feels like he's being thrown out, and his stomach can't help but churn.

"Wow..." Finally, Luo Lin couldn't help but let out a groan. He felt that the food he had just eaten was about to surge up his throat. Although this stimulating experience was exciting, it was too intense that he couldn't enjoy it at all.

Fortunately, after a difficult journey, the magic bus finally arrived at its destination - Jurchen Road. When the car stopped steadily, Luo Lin breathed a sigh of relief and got off the car impatiently.

He stood by the road and took a few deep breaths of fresh air, trying to calm the waves in his heart that had not yet completely subsided. Although this journey was full of thrills and discomfort, it was undoubtedly an unforgettable experience for Luo Lin, who loved adventure.

Rowling didn't plan to visit the villas on Jurchen Road. He knew that there was a Squib wizard named Mrs. Figg near Harry Potter's house, who was sent by Dumbledore to guard Harry Potter. He didn't plan to alarm Dumbledore yet. So Rowling found a hotel nearby and stayed there.
