Qing Jialu

The matter of practicing kung fu should not be delayed, Shen Jia did it as soon as he said it, and went to learn martial arts from Wei Hanming the next day.Wei Hanming looked Shen Ge's slender arms and legs up and down, and said with a embarrassed face, "Shen Ge wants to learn martial arts now, isn't it... a bit late?"

"I know that I'm past the age of learning martial arts, but I don't plan to practice any martial arts. I just want to practice some basic skills to make myself stronger and have strength in my hands and legs."

"Oh, so that's the case." Wei Hanming suddenly realized, "Then... do a horse stance first?"

Zama step is indeed a basic skill that martial arts practitioners must practice, and it can train leg strength.After Shen Jia heard this, he immediately agreed, and he humbly asked for advice: "How do you gait?"

"Separate your legs, bend your knees, and clenched your fists like me." Wei Hanming explained to Shen Jia while demonstrating.

Shen Jia learned it after watching it once, and practiced it by herself.Wei Hanming carefully adjusted his posture until it reached the standard.

"It's not difficult to learn." Shen Jia thought that practicing martial arts was so difficult, but she didn't expect it to be so easy?

"Yes, Mr. Ge has done a good job." Wei Hanming said calmly, "That's it, insist on not moving for an hour."

"What, an hour?" Shen Jia was stunned, he wanted to take back what he just said.

"Practicing martial arts is not difficult, the difficulty lies in persistence." Wei Hanming explained solemnly, "Mr. Shen Ge, it's your first time to do horseback riding. How about halving the time?"

"That that... alright." Shen Jia really wanted to say no, but his legs had already started to tremble, and he couldn't forcefully refuse, so he had to compromise.

Shen Jia originally thought that he could hold on for at least half an hour, but he didn't expect that when the boat shook, only a "plop" sound was heard, and Shen Jia sat down on the ground.

Counting the time, maybe even a stick of incense didn't last.

"Old Shen Ge, are you okay?" Wei Hanming helped him up with a guilty expression on his face, "It's harder to stand on a boat than flat ground. Otherwise, we'd better wait until we return to Beijing..."

"No, it's now." Shen Jia will never compromise this time, "I'll continue, you don't need to persuade me."

Wei Hanming originally thought that Shen Jia was acting on a whim, and when he couldn't persist, he would give up the unrealistic idea of ​​practicing martial arts.But he didn't expect that Shen Jia would not be discouraged after falling, and patted his buttocks and got up again.

It turned out that he was serious.

"Mr. Shen Ge, you have no other distractions when you step on the horse, and your energy is deep in your dantian." Wei Hanming has also started to teach seriously now, "Move the center of gravity down, and gradually squat deeper."

"Okay." Shen Jia adjusted herself according to Wei Hanming's prompt.

Wei Hanming nodded and said, "Very well, take your time. Now practice for half a stick of incense."

"You just said an hour?" Shen Jia asked back.

"That's a request from Jin Yiwei." Wei Hanming smiled, "This subordinate made a joke, don't mind."

"...No, it's okay." Shen Jia breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words. Fortunately, it was not an hour, and he was almost scared off by him just now.

The matter of Shen Jia's martial arts training attracted everyone's attention on the boat. When many Jinyi guards passed by Shen Jia, they couldn't help but take a second look curiously.Didn't expect the dignified old man to be in Zamabu?What's more, he didn't expect the commander to watch over him and patiently correct his posture.

After half a stick of incense was boiled, Shen Jia fell down from exhaustion.If Wei Hanming hadn't given him a hand, he probably wouldn't be able to get up from sitting on the ground.Wei Hanming helped Shen Jia up to the third floor, and told him along the way: "On the first day, your thighs may feel sore and swollen, just beat it and it will be fine."

"Thank you very much." After Shen Jia thanked him, he just asked Wei Hanming to deliver it to the door.

So, Xiao Yi saw Shen Jia limping in.

"What's wrong with you?" Xiao Yu wondered, he was fine when he went out just now, why did he become like this in a blink of an eye.

"I... took the Zama step."

"What?" Xiao Yi suspected that there was something wrong with his ears, and he couldn't hear.

Shen Jia supported the table and sat down slowly, "Zamabu, you martial arts practitioners, haven't you all practiced?"

"Are you really going to take the horse step?" Xiao Yi smiled, "You are a literati, and you don't use swords and guns, why bother?"

"Ahem, I just want to practice casually." Shen Jia poked her neck, probably not telling the real reason.

But how could the little Jiujiu in his heart hide from the eyes of the emperor?Xiao Yi thought about what happened yesterday, and guessed his thoughts.

It seemed that the man's damn self-esteem was at work.Is it embarrassing to not be able to hold it?

It seems... a bit.

Xiao Yi suppressed a smile, not intending to expose Shen Jia.He changed the subject and said, "I'm going to Shandong tomorrow, do you know anything about it?"

"Shandong, the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, is like thunder." Shen Jia didn't know anything about Wu, but talked about Wen, "If we can arrive in Jining in mid-June, we can go to the local academy. Being able to listen to a lecture by a great Confucianist once is quite rewarding."

"It seems that you have been there?" Xiao Yi asked.

"I happened to listen to it once. When I went to Beijing to rush for the exam, I passed by here and met some students who took me to the class." Shen Jia recalled the past. There is no room left, we can only stand at the door and listen."

"How grand is it?" Xiao Yi asked curiously, "Who is giving lectures?"

"A great Confucian named Wu, it is rumored that he was once the emperor's teacher." Shen Jia looked at Xiao Yi inquiringly, "Perhaps, you know him."

Xiao Yi immediately remembered, "Wu Zhongshu?"

"It's this person." Shen Jia played with taste, "It seems that you really know each other?"

Can you not know each other, Xiao Yi and his three brothers have all listened to Wu Zhongshu's lectures.But at that time, he and his third brother were still young, and Wu Zhongshu was mainly teaching his elder brother Chinese.Later, he went to the northwest to join the army, and he seldom returned to Beijing, let alone seeing this old Mr. Wu.

In this way, this person is indeed an emperor teacher.It's just that he is the emperor teacher of the abolished emperor.

"Okay, then let's go and listen to Mr. Wu's lecture." Xiao Yi made a final decision and decided to stop in Shandong for a while.
