If there is such a person, he studies Qigong martial arts, without grading with other genres 200 times undefeated, with Qigong can treat high blood pressure, shingles, and even remote treatment through the telephone, leisure time can also remove spirits, fortune telling... Do you believe it? In fact, it doesn't matter if you or not believe it or not, anyway, someone is promoting himself in this way, he is Liu Longquan.
Speaking of Liu Longquan, I have to mention his volleying strength in the dojo and his apprentices, and in the early years, Japanese television stations also did related programs. Liu Longquan always said that he had learned the Great Eastern Stream Aikido and opened a qi talisman classroom, but judging from the video with his apprentices, Liu Longquan did not look like a warrior, but rather like a mage.
<h1>The "origin of qi" that cannot be verified</h1>
Born in 1941, Yanagi moved to Hokkaido at the age of 18 and became a monk. He currently lives in Sapporo, Japan, where he studied Obayashi Dairyū and studied the Ōto-ryū Aikido.
The ancestor of the school to which Yanagi Ryūkyūkwon belonged was Takeda Yukikaku, the founder of the Daito Stream Aikido. Takeda Waskaku was born into a famous family and was the second son of Takeda Yukichi, a member of the Aizu Domain. Legend has it that he learned sumo wrestling, jiu-jitsu, and treasure-in stream gun skills with his father, and learned the Ono school of one-blade sword with Shibuya Higashima. Nowadays, it is commonly said that the aizu clan's old Saigo Raimu (renamed Hoko Ryūmu after the Meiji Restoration) was defeated for supporting the Edo shogunate during the war, and seeing that Takeda Kokaku was quite accomplished in martial arts, he taught the ancestral Daito Aiki Jutsu to Takeda Kokaku.
For some time afterwards, Takeda did not open a dojo to teach people martial arts, but promoted the techniques of Daito-ryū Aiki-jutsu regardless of age, origin, or status. In order to prove the practicality of Daito-ryū Aiki-jitsu, he also traveled to various regions of Japan to compete with various local martial arts schools. This is also evidenced by the English Catalogue, which records the receipt of disciples after Meiji 31 (1898), and the Book of Thanksgiving, which records exchanges and exchanges. However, some contemporary researchers have questioned the accuracy of the English List and the Book of Thanksgiving, and the existing physical evidence alone cannot accurately reflect its circulation history.
The above paragraph is almost a translation of the encyclopedia and other materials.
In addition, Yanagi Dragon Fist also introduced his martial arts heritage on the official website, but rarely mentioned his master and ancestor, but directly dialed the historical pointer back to 1400 years ago, associated with the Takeda family's "Dragon NoBu" connection. Yanagi says that the Takeda family tradition of Aiki is the origin of qi, relying on the "Dragon's Temple". He also said that this is not Chinese qigong, but unique to Japan, and said that this is the origin of all martial arts, breathing methods, and mindfulness methods. Liu Longquan was afraid that the reader would not believe it, and added a sentence at the end: You can read the original book, and it is offered to kashima Jingu Shrine (Ibaraki Prefecture). It's just that I searched the Internet and couldn't find this Takeda family's "Dragon's Shrine".
Yanagi Ryu-kun, which prides itself on being the "highest peak of all-Japanese qi techniques", uses the method of meditation to focus on the mind, thus involving the perceptual organs of the whole body, and after 40 years of research, it is finally completed. You can now also register online for Liu Longquan's courses, which include taught talismanship, breathing, detachment, health, qigong, and respiratory applications for martial arts, health, healing, and beauty. Regardless of gender, age, or physical condition, Liu Longquan can also answer the unthinkable phenomenon (indeed, it is written).
But if you think about it carefully, after so many years of Liu Longquan Sect, not a single disciple under his hands has learned to soar, and the "conductor" in the dojo is always himself, maybe he is not a good teacher.
<h1>200 undefeated three punches and two kicks ko</h1>
Liu Long fist flipped his wrist, and a string of young people flipped and fought one after another. Liu Longquan said that he competed with various genres, played 200 times without a defeat, and appeared on television many times. This made many people who practiced martial arts begin to question Liu Longquan, saying that he was not worthy of the position.
I don't know if I feel that no one cares about me, or even Liu Longquan himself believes that he is invincible in the world, when Liu Longquan once recruited competition opponents on the official website, hoping to compete with other genre players and fighters, and came up with a COMPETITION (founded in 1997 in Japanese mixed martial arts), saying that he was confident of defeating Rickson Gracie (the third son of the founder of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, a well-known martial artist, who has played in UFC, PRIDE and other events since the 90s). However, at that time, there was a condition for finding a Liulong fist competition: paying a 50,000 yen registration fee.

In March 2006, the fee rose to 500,000 yen, but a rule was added: if Liu Longquan was defeated, the money would be returned. Later, it was changed to "The amount of payment remains unchanged, and if Yanagi Ryu fist loses, he will pay the other party 1 million yen."
For a while after the rules were established, no one challenged Liu Longquan. However, the challenge that was originally posted on its own website was exposed by a website that caught entertainment news, "Tan Wei 偵ファイル". The fat water does not flow to the outsiders, and the editor-in-chief of the website quickly contacted his own fighting coach Iwakura Hiroshi, "Iwakura, you go up!" ”。 Unable to help but nag, Iwakura agreed to the match. At that time, Iwakura was 36 years old, majoring in judo, and also practiced full contact karate, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and Aikido.
On November 26, 2006, Iwakura and Ryu Kyu-kun met at a public gymnasium in Sapporo. It is said that the audience exceeded 500 people on that day, and due to the admission restrictions in the museum, 200 spectators finally watched the game indoors. 10 years after the end of the match, someone interviewed Iwakura and asked him how he felt at the time, he said: "On the day of the match, there were people on the scene who said to me before the match, 'Liu Longquan is particularly strong, you still have to give up.'" Thinking that I hadn't read the information on Liu Long's martial arts, it made me nervous and had to make a desperate bet. ”
According to Iwakura, "I didn't know what kind of a tall man he was at the time, so I developed a set of tactics. They all know that I am from judo, so I will play the strike first, won't I be able to achieve the effect of surprise attack? I decided to make a quick decision. Iwakura's fist was very hard, a punch hit The mouth of Willow Dragon's fist, the referee asked Willow Dragon Fist, but he said that he could continue the game, and then there was no time to dodge the three punches and two feet. Liu Long fist fell to the ground, blood splashed on the ground, teeth were broken, "200 undefeated" Liu Long Fist lost.
Later, Liu Longquan also published his views on this competition on the official website, probably saying that he did not shoot because he was afraid that the police would be held accountable for the crime of fighting, saying that he avoided the crime of fighting in this way, but was labeled as "weak" and "fake". After explaining, he praised it and said, "Iwakura's strength is also real. After that, there were also a lot of martial artists who came to practice, they experienced the real strength, I don't say their names, but I believe they will spread what they heard and felt at that time. ”
<h1>Does fame count as fame? </h1>
Liu Longquan held himself so high, it is reasonable to say that losing the game should be a tree falling down and scattering, but perhaps even Liu Longquan himself did not expect that this defeat would become a springboard for him to become famous again.
On September 25, 2011, it was almost five years since the defeat of Liu Longquan. An entertainment program in TbS in Japan invited Liu Longquan to participate in the sumo session, and I don't know if the program team knew that Liu Longquan once called out pride player Rickson Gracie, and their initial opponent for Liu Longquan was The PRIDE player From Brazil, Vandré Silva.
Nicknamed "Ape Man", Vandré Silva's punches are as wild as they look, and he excels at tight-paced blows as well as ferocious knee strikes. He signed with the UFC in his early years and later signed with Japan's PRIDE. In 2001, Wandré Silva beat the Japanese "national hero" Sakuraba kazushi KO in the first set, and since then he has defeated several Japanese players in succession, maintaining a four-year unbeaten record. After the last game of 2007, Vandrei Silva did not renew his contract with PRIDE and returned to the UFC instead.

The program team specially cut a short film for Liu Longquan, introducing the kung fu of Liu Longquan's volleying power, and also called Liu Longquan a "living legend in the Japanese martial arts world" and a "mysterious human being". Liu Longquan said that he defeated the enemy through killing qi, and the apprentice's exaggerated actions were all because of his reaction after feeling his own killing qi. In the short film, the program team staff asked Liu Longquan: "What do you think is the probability of winning Silva?" Liu Long fist said: "100%. A program group employee also had a face-to-face confrontation with Liu Longquan and said that he really felt the mysterious power of Liu Longquan.
TbS's sumo wrestling match was actually a picture of music, Silvaben came to the scene, but eventually abstained due to injury, and did not start a dream linkage with the then 70-year-old Liu Longquan. Kikuta Sanae replaced the abstaining Silva. As a result, Liu Long Fist was quickly decided again, and it felt that Kikuta Sanae did not dare to exert force, but still pushed Liu Long Fist out of the border. After the game, the host and the audience all laughed loudly, only to see liu long fist in the camera raise the corners of his mouth in cooperation, but he did not know whether he should laugh at this time.

<h1>Still able to eat no</h1>
In July 2011, Liu Longquan published a petition to fight with Iwakura Hao on its official website, and I estimate that at this time, Liu Longquan had already received an invitation from TBS, and this petition was also issued for the sake of heat, otherwise it would not have been five years before he wanted to fight the second war.
We have stepped into 2021, this year's Liu Longquan is 80 years old, and no one has ever competed with him again. Since April 7, 2015, Liu Longquan has integrated his "Liu Wushu Integral Qigong Institute" and "Qigong Research Institute" into the "Qigong Difficult Disease Remote Treatment Hospital", and on the grounds of maintenance, deleted the content of many "Dadongliu Aikido" on the Internet, but said that there was no change in organizational operations.
Now Liu Longquan and his son Liu Longbao run this "clinic", with Lao Tzu as president and son as dean. He studies the relationship between physical energy and cosmic power, and uses the telephone as a medium to treat patients in distant places, but sometimes he receives harassing phone calls.
At that time, the 70-year-old Liu Longquan was killed by the TV station and participated in the recording of the program, while the 69-year-old Ma Baoguo was "deleted" before he could make "The Young Kung Fu King". Now 80-year-old Liu Longquan is still maintaining his original personality, I don't know if he thought that he might be able to be a monk in the temple all the time? Or make a living after losing to Iwakura? Or did you decline TBS's invitation to participate in that sumo fight? There are many other paths in his life, but he has no choice - is he willing to be bland Liu Long fist or Liu Long Fist?
