Since ancient times, a variety of weapons have appeared in the history of our country, and the "eighteen weapons" have been used as their representatives. In ancient times, the most popular weapon was the sword known as the "ancestor of the short soldier", which has been widely used since the production of swords in the Shang Dynasty, and the emergence of swordplay in the Spring and Autumn Period has made its reputation even more famous, and it has a very important position in China's martial arts schools.
Li Bai once wrote in "Chivalrous Travel" that "ten steps to kill a person, a thousand miles do not stay." The matter is whisked away, and the deep hidden merit and fame of "a real swordsman makes people feel unparalleled dashing." Especially in today's society, the rendering of various film and television dramas makes swordsmen extremely respected by people. In the Republic of China period, there was such a swordsman, he was known as the Republic of China Sword Immortal, who once subdued Du Yuesheng in 10 steps to truly achieve "the unity of human sword".
In 1885, Li Jinglin was born in Zaoqiang (present-day Zaoqiang, Hebei), and his father was a martial artist who knew some fists and feet, so Li Jinglin had already learned to dance with his father's fists and feet when he could not walk steadily. In 1898, at the age of 13, he was sent by his father to the "Yuzi Army" Army Youth School, and The only one who took a fancy to his martial arts talent at that time was received from his disciples.
Two years later, the school was dissolved, and Li Jinglin went to Yongnian County to learn the art and learn Yang's Taijiquan. Along the way, he often fought for the people with a martial art, punishing adultery and eliminating evil pleasure. Although this made him hated by many forces, he didn't care, and those who practiced martial arts should be happy to be vengeful and have the right path.
In 1903, Li Jinglin entered the Baoding Beiyang Army Customs Martial Arts Academy, and was an alumnus of Wu Peifu, Sun Chuanfang and others. However, at this time, social turmoil and frequent wars broke out, and Li Jinglin could not bear the people's livelihood and was determined to devote himself to the road of salvation with a martial art. So in 1911, Li Jinglin followed the Cabinet Minister of War to the south, and led the death squad to take the long-breached Guishan Mountain in Hanyang, and obtained the yellow coat given by the emperor.
In 1921, Li Jinglin won the appreciation of Zhang Zuolin for practicing the "march of the disease", and since then he has been promoted to an official position and became a division commander the following year. Despite the war, Li Jinglin has never forgotten his favorite martial arts, especially after Song only passed on his Wudang Kung Fu secrets such as "Wudang Sword Spectrum".
In 1929, in order to promote martial arts, Li Jinglin wanted to hold a "national ring competition". However, although he had a martial art, he was a veritable poor egg, and the money for this competition could not be taken out at all. Therefore, Li Jinglin made a dangerous move in order to raise funds for the competition.
On this day, Li Jinglin invited Jin Jinrong and Du Yuesheng to drink tea, and during the banquet, he proposed the idea that they would each provide 50,000 oceans to fund his competition, and put the pistol on the table. The atmosphere was extremely stagnant for a while, and none of the characters present here were simple characters, and the smell of gunpowder was on the verge of erupting.
At this moment, Li Jinglin handed the pistol to Du Yuesheng and said that if he could dodge Du Yuesheng's bullets, the two would give him a face and promise him. Du Yuesheng was not a timid person, and as soon as he heard it, he immediately became interested and agreed at that time. So Li Jinglin took ten steps back and signaled that Du Yuesheng could shoot.
As a result, Du Yuesheng had just raised his gun and put his hand on the trigger, and Li Jinglin's ghostly sword had already flashed a cold light against his neck, which made both Du Yuesheng and Jin Rong break out in a cold sweat. The two praised this amazing kung fu and did not hesitate to provide 100,000 oceans to Li Jinglin.
In 1932, Li Jinglin died of illness in Jinan at the age of 47. In the second half of his life, he actively promoted the importance of martial arts from 1926, and published the precious classics of the "Wudang Sword Spectrum" for the world to learn, and was revered as the "Sword Immortal of the Republic of China". Martial arts is a kind of wisdom created by our predecessors in the history of our country, which is of great significance, and we should protect the inheritance of this culture today and show it respect.
