Chapter 95. Three Little Fortunes
During the Qing Dynasty and even the Republic of China, Peking Opera has always been the most influential art form, so it is known as "national opera" and "national quintessence".
This is from a positive perspective. If you look at it from a negative perspective, Peking Opera is very popular, and naturally, the "Hui Ban Entering Beijing" planned and directed by Qianlong is indispensable.
From a narrow perspective, the biggest feature of opera is not its reproduction or adaptation of ancient events, but its convenience for promotion and popularization.
The Qing Dynasty rulers who were the best at spiritual castration liked Peking Opera for reasons.
After occupying the orthodox Han Dynasty's orthodox government, this ethnic minority ruled by elites not only castrated Han civilization in terms of hairstyle, clothing and spoken language, but also brought up flags and words to prevent the real Han civilization from being inherited and carried forward.
The emergence of Peking Opera was to replace the palace singing and dancing and Yuefu that inherited the Han civilization.
Wu and Wu have the same pronunciation but different characters, but they have similarities.
In ancient times, martial arts came from sword dance. In the long history of the following periods, they always complemented each other or coexisted. Replacing the Han singing and dancing was also a disguised ban on martial arts.
However, the biggest feature of Han civilization is tolerate and support. Therefore, Kunqu Opera, which is barely inherited by the Han people, flourished through continuous improvement. Finally, the word "wu" was naturally integrated into Shengdan, Jingmo and Chou. This is the origin of Gaotai Martial Arts.
Therefore, over the long years, Peking Opera has gradually become an important means of interpreting and spreading Chinese traditional culture.
The four artistic techniques or basic skills of Peking Opera performance are called: singing, chanting, doing, and fighting.
The words "sing" that complement each other and form one of the two major elements of Peking Opera performing arts that are singing and dancing.
Doing refers to dance-like physical movements, fighting, and fighting refers to martial arts and falling skills. The two are combined to form the "dance", one of the two major elements of Peking Opera performing arts that are singing and dancing.
Opera actors have to train from these four aspects since childhood. Although some are good at singing skills, some are mainly engaged in doing exercises (Hua Dan), and some are mainly engaged in martial arts (Wu Jing), each actor is required to have four basic skills: singing, reciting, doing and playing.
The Eight Immortals are Taoist boxing skills that integrate "doing" and "beating", so it has the soil that has been passed down in the pear garden. At the same time, it is also an excellent practical boxing type that combines practice and fighting skills. If you want to practice this set of boxing well, you must have both the eight kinds of body shape, footwork, and even the essence of the expression of men, women, old, young, rich, noble, poor, and low.
Therefore, even if it is not for the secret techniques and divine will of the Taoist sect, Yang Meng would also invite Wu Lingxian to Shanghai based on the elite students in front of him.
First, the elite students who have only learned practical national arts can master an orthodox boxing technique that is highly concealed and can quickly improve combat power through external objects such as alcohol. Second, through these eight strange body techniques and demeanor movements, students can quickly and efficiently grasp the characteristics of character makeup, expressions and body movements of different identities, ages, and genders, and continuously improve the functions of agents who disguise themselves as lurking through daily exercises.
As a patriotic drama master, Wu Lingxian was very generous and proactive in proposing that he had a special method of swallowing the air, which could continuously improve the students' physical tolerance to alcohol, increase the success rate of the task with amazing alcohol, or temporarily use alcohol anesthesia during the task to enhance the students' overall combat power and even ability to fight. This is of course more important for a spy who has to be active in China for a long time.
Since ancient times, China has been a country that advocates food culture. Many major events that need to be watched abroad often make a decision at the wine table in China. Although this culture was not understood by the great powers at first, over time, they have become more and more aligned with the local customs.
So, yesterday, the students who had just experienced the first group hangover suddenly discovered that the training course that was originally used to be extremely omnipotent. After practicing madly for more than 20 days, the content finally changed drastically and neatly. Fortunately, they only practiced the Eight Immortals Boxing in the morning. In the afternoon, they changed to the words and deeds of Huadan, Laodan, and Daomadan, and in the afternoon they changed to the hell-style training that made people even more collapsed, drinking, vomiting and then drinking...
"Not to mention how powerful the Qi-swallowing method is, if this continues, the students' bodies may not be able to stand it. Besides, the smell in the classroom is too..."
What made Huang Xing speechless was that even after he raised objections to Yang Meng in a less tactful way, Yang Meng still turned a deaf ear and just ran outside the yard to continue to concentrate on practicing his water tank magic skills. As for the classroom, which was full of horror smells day and night, anyone was prohibited from going in to watch or even cleaning, and it was also called "training the students' survival ability."
If you are allowed to stay in a sour and smelly place every day and keep eating, drinking, vomiting, what do you think? I think no matter how keen the nerves are, they will gradually become numb. If you are not lucky, you may be unable to save your life...
Of course, with Yang Meng, an assistant who strictly follows scientific standards, who regularly and quantitatively supplements nutrition and water for students, and Wu Lingxian, who has been drinking wine for 20 or 30 years with the exclusive method of swallowing the air, the students are not only not in danger of their lives, but also make rapid progress in this horrible and even disgusting environment.
Although Wu Lingxian was a little resentful in his heart and was even afraid of this terrifying and harsh teaching environment, whenever he saw these respected students, he would rather live a life of drunkenness and study the Eight Immortals every day. He couldn't help but be deeply moved by these young people who were once named the name of a rebellious party.
"A person without fearless spirit cannot maintain firm belief and strong fighting spirit in such a harsh environment. Although this crazy monkey sometimes looks cruel, he is still the name of his first instructor..."
Perhaps it was because he admired everyone, or perhaps he was just to serve the country with opera. Wu Lingxian's daily literary opera courses became more and more serious, not only focusing on the simulation of the figures and expressions of various characters, but even when the students were tired, he took the initiative to teach the singing style and breathing skills of the real Qingyi actress.
"Lu Dongbin, drunken, lifting the pot with great force, the emphasis is on flying back and feet, and holding the fist with both hands as arrows, and holding the fist directly. When you step back, you must not only turn your body, but also keep your breath and lock your yin to make your body move. When you are exercising your hands and pushing your feet, your qi and blood will naturally turn and your hair will stand up. It is said that when you reach the highest level, you can control the scrotum to sink and shrink your vagina and completely hide the cover. Once you are attacked by your opponent, you can use the final punch to rush to the top of the mountain with your elbow. The force contained in it is like a huge rock pressing down on the top..."
Yang Meng slowly waved his fists and feet, and integrated his spirit into it bit by bit, and "fighted" with Zhu Lingxian's three little disciples in the yard.
"Haha, look at my move Lan Caihe, Danti toast to the bottom, I stop, I stop, I stop..."
Although Yang Meng still looks crazy to outsiders, in the eyes of those three children, this strange uncle is simply a genius in martial arts. In just over a dozen days, he has already mastered the Zui Eight Immortal Fist, as if he has been immersed in this boxing technique for more than ten years.
"If it weren't for his fists and feet, he could not make the shocking sound and crisp force like his master, he would probably think that his drunken Eight Immortals Kung Fu is really above the master..."
Yang Meng didn't know what the child was thinking, but he tried to follow the previous path of his conceived. While imitating the divine will of the Eight Immortals, he played different roles and kept fighting with the three children, while continuing to try hard to observe the boxing postures and steps of the three children. Of course, he was more devoted to Zhu Youfen's manual words.
Wu Lingxian, the three little disciples, were called the Three Little Fu, namely Zhu Youfen, Wang Huifang and Mei Lanfang. They are all famous drama masters in later generations. Except for Zhu Youfen's early death, the remaining two were called "Lan Hui Qifang" when they were young. Whether they like drama or not, they are familiar with the name Mei Lanfang.
Sanxiao was not very young, but he had been with Wu Lingxian for many years. Although he was still young and could not practice the method of swallowing energy and practicing wine, he had already obtained three of them in the inheritance of the boxing techniques of the Eight Immortals. Mei Lanfang didn't like to speak very much, while Wang Huifang was a little honest, the most agile and smartest was Zhu Youfen, the oldest.
In just over half a month, Yang Meng was able to truly learn the secret boxing arts of Taoism. Fortunately, this evil and elf-like little Youfen. After Zhu Lingxian was taught and recommended very seriously, Yang Meng's understanding of Taoism also made great progress.
Of course, this child with excellent talent also likes to pester Yang Meng very much. Although he is teaching this first instructor most of the time, Yang Meng is constantly fighting, correcting his body and boxing posture and teaching some tips of orthodox internal martial arts. Today, even if the two junior brothers take action together, it is difficult to beat him again.
What made Yang Meng laugh and cry the most was that Xiao Youfen, now because she kept him as a crazy monkey apprentice, had a reputation among the students even more than him. In addition, her lively and active personality was welcomed and complained by two groups of students...
"Uncle Yang, you bullied those big brothers with your master again today. When they went back, they all vomited pale faces. It was so pitiful..."
Yang Meng looked at Xiao Youfen with a slight voice and suddenly laughed: "That's your master's hand, it has nothing to do with Uncle Yang... But today you seem to have taken their benefits again. What conditions have you agreed to..."
Xiao Youfen pursed her lips, and when she saw her two junior brothers' faces flushed and silent, she couldn't help but say more guiltily: "There is no benefit, it's just that we three Xiaofu had some pea yellow and a few sugar people... They didn't say anything, they just promised to add a few more empresses' actions when teaching you, Fairy He..."
I wish all brothers a happy Little New Year. It will be on the shelves tomorrow. I don’t know if you are ready to order the first time. I hope everyone can support you more. My struggle is indispensable to your every little encouragement!
