Major Discoveries in the History of Chinese Culture and Martial Arts (4)
—— The mystery of Dai Longbang's learning and art
Cui Hugang Liuhe martial arts
Earlier, based on many evidences such as the literature and word of mouth of the Dai clan in Shanxi, we have obtained the true history of Dai's heart boxing once passed on by Li Zhen of Lushan, Henan. The works of Mr. Guo Yingtian, a descendant of Dai Kui, also have relevant teacher inheritances:
Dai Kui and his disciples' works (for details, see Compilation of Rare Documents of Traditional Martial Arts, Volume 3)
And there is another type of boxing literature handed down by Dai, which is also the literature of the heart boxing spectrum, that is, the "Liuhe Boxing Spectrum" document containing the "Liuhe Fist Order".
The Dai family's kind of boxing literature was not only transmitted to one of the disciple Li Luoneng Shape and Meaning Fist, but also introduced in the works of Mr. Jia Dajun's disciple Gao Xiheng, but also passed on to the eldest disciple Cheng Dianqing, the son of the old Cai Cheng family, but it is not known to others. In addition, Mr. Wang Shumao, son of Wang Zhengqing, the master of the Pingyao Dart Master in Shanxi and the head of the second-generation Dart Bureau, also copied such a boxing recipe from Dai Laojiu of the Dai family in Qi County during the Guangxu period.
Some scholars believe that this score is a forgery, and the text of this "Liuhe Fist Order" shows that it cannot be done by the non-Ji clan. This genealogy has also been a secret boxing genealogy in the Qing Dynasty, and it was not until the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Min Dynasty that it spread among more disciples and gradually made public. That's the essence of this work! The truth!
Later, the author found a variety of Kangxi years "Yishan Martial Theory" further corroborated the important exclusive record of the "Liuhe Fist Order" - the history of Ji Gong De Pu Chuangquan!
Previously, scholars mostly proposed that the "Liuhe Fist Order" was forged on the grounds that Cao Jiwu and Ji Jike did not live in the era of existence, but in fact, Ji Gong died in the 46th year of the Kangxi Dynasty, not the 16th year of the Kangxi Dynasty speculated by scholars, so the reasons of these scholars were denied.
Similarly, some scholars have always regarded Dai Longbang's birth after Jiaqing as the strongest evidence that the Liuhe Fist Order is forged, or that Dai's forged or Dai's re-heir, Taigu heir, forged evidence. As mentioned earlier, the determination of the year of Li Zhen's death proves that Dai Longbang must have lived in the era before Qianlong. The reason that Dai's late appearance and the "Liuhe Fist Order" was a forgery also disappeared.
So when and who did this "Liuhe Fist Order" genealogy handed down by Dai Longbang come from?
Judging from the "return to Jin" in this boxing text, the author is a native of Shanxi. The "Liuhe Fist Order" is divided into two categories, one without time and signature; One category is "when in the fifteenth year of Qianlong, Gengwu Lotus Moon Book was in Luoyang, Henan". Some of the manuscripts are signed by Dai Longbang. In order to explore the source of this score, the author once published a series of articles on the origin examination of the "Liuhe Fist Order" in "Wuhun "Wuhun ", and concluded that the "Liuhe Fist Order" was composed by the Dai family.
In fact, so far, the "Liuhe Fist Spectrum" containing this type of "Liuhe Fist Order" has not been found to come from outside the Dai family since the Republic of China in the Qing Dynasty.
Therefore, these evidences show that Dai Longbang does have a lineage of the Ji family. According to the "Liuhe Fist Order" boxing literature, Dai Longbang must have another inheritance, namely Ji Jike, Cao Jiwu, and Dai Longbang.
Dai Longbang and Li Zhen are undoubtedly contemporaries. Combined with the Republican period, Dai Kui's disciple Xue Shiyuan's "Dai Longbang's Self-Narration of Learning and Art" records Dai Longbang's age, the time of nine years before and after learning art, and the author of "Liuhe Fist Order" returned to Jin after learning art, etc., Dai Longbang was about 25 years old in the fifteenth year of Qianlong, and Dai Longbang was about 67 years old in the 57th year of Qianlong. Li Zhen and Dai Longbang are the same age or slightly older.
Since the Dai family documents record that Li Zhen once passed on the Dai family, and it is more likely to pass on Dai Longbang (and even his eldest son Dai Wenliang), who is Li Zhen's master?
According to the common sense of scholars, during the Republican period, Sun Baoding, an apprentice of Ma Zhuangtu, recorded Li Zhen as the apprentice grandson of Henan Ma Xueli and a disciple of Zhang Zhicheng. This information came directly from An Daqing, originally from Mr. Mai Zhuangtu. Mr. Buy Zhuangtu is from Zhang Ju. Zhang Ju is Mr. Li Zhen's high foot. This information is generally considered reliable, and it is not believed that it was forged by a buyer or someone else.
So, according to the above situation, why did Dai Longbang, who has a high generation, learn from Li Zhen, a fellow with a low generation?
This seemingly illogical and martial arts rule actually shows that Henan Lushan Li Zhen must have something very special, not only martial arts! Because if it is only according to the level of martial arts, it is obviously far from enough, and the Dai family will not respect and remember this junior so much. There must be another special reason. What is the reason for this?
The information disclosed by Li Zhen's descendants today has revealed this mystery for us - Li Zhen has another family heirloom heart fist! A different one from Ji's. And that's exactly why!
In fact, decades ago, when the author saw the Li Zhen boxing spectrum handed down by the Dai clan in Shanxi, I found a special phenomenon: according to the boxing spectrum recorded by Li Zhen, the heart fist was created by Yue Fei, and then went directly to Lushan Li Zhen in Henan to learn this since childhood without recording other people, and passed down the heart boxing. In addition to explaining his long history of heart boxing, there is no information about Ji Shi, Ma Gong and other people in the middle. (The inheritors of Henan Xinyi Fist generally deny the relationship between his Xinyi Fist and Yue Fei, which is in sharp contrast)
At that time, the author had the impression that this boxing score under Li Zhen's name may have expressed an original record, not copied from the "Liuhe Fist Preface". Otherwise, there must be Ji Zu, at least Ma Xueli, mentor Zhang Zhicheng and so on. According to the boxing genealogy passed down by Li Zhen, the heart fist passed down to Dai is also a long history and has another origin. It's a pity that I couldn't introduce more inheritance information about this one.
Later, the author found more similar boxing recipes. This type of boxing spectrum is significantly different from the Liuhe Fist Order as we know it. Later, with the discovery of Jiyuan's "Divine Fist Fist Spectrum" and the discovery of more early Xinyi Boxing Genealogy, it proved that as early as before Ji Gong, the "Yue Wumu King Boxing Spectrum" was circulated among the people (see Volume 5 of the "Collection of Rare Documents of Traditional Martial Arts" for details), but we inherit and are familiar with this branch of Ji's Depu Chuangfist, and the existence of the earlier Xinyi Fist in history is unknown.
(For details, see Compilation of Rare Documents of Traditional Martial Arts, Volume 5)
It can be seen from the above that on Dai Longbang, the cross-fusion of two heart fists has occurred - the cross fusion of the heart fist created by the Ji clan and the folk heart fist different from the Ji clan!
In fact, before this, this cross-fusion had already happened to Li Zhen, who inherited the family heirloom Xinyi Fist and the Xinyi Fist created by the Ji clan.
In martial arts, you have me, I have you, and several inheritances are integrated throughout, which can be described as one of the norms.
This situation is also immersive for many martial artists today, both from family traditions, and from other juniors who have learned from the same discipline and even have unique skills. Including today's Hubei Mr. Hu Shengkui's two heart fists, Shanxi Wang Jianjian's multiple shape and intention fists, his family and even himself, the same situation has occurred. Some scholars use Mr. Li Shengli to deny that the Li family has no family inheritance on the basis that Mr. Li Shengli has learned from buyers (if it is true). In fact, the two are not contradictory.
At this point, we understand the reason why Dai Longbang studied art from Li Zhen in history. That is, from the theory of Ji Zu, the relationship between the two is always known. In the case of Li Zhen's family tradition, it is another situation.
The Dai clan of Shanxi did not bury Mr. Li Zhen because he had another inheritance. In fact, the Dai family left to future generations, especially the descendants and descendants of Qi County in Shanxi, more about Li Zhen. Dai's character is precious! Be realistic! (In the past, scholars said that the Dai family offended Li Zhen and how they were revenge by Li Zhen, but today we can know the truth of the matter)
To sum up, we can see from the information from the two aspects of Dai and the descendants of Lushan Li Zhen that Li Zhen does have another inheritance of the Heart Fist.
And look at what is the story of Li Zhen's family inheritance?
Concentrate:
Previously, many scholars wondered: why did the author turn a blind eye to such an "obvious" Dai era coming out late, and the "Liuhe Fist Order" must be falsified? In fact, what the author sees is the inner truth of "Liuhe Fist Preface"! It's not true!
