Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and he began to formally teach Yu Cheng martial arts. First of all, he started to practice the fist and palm method, and at the same time practiced the internal exercises. Yikong taught him the Iron Buddha Fist and the Iron Buddha Inner Zhuanggong he founded, Yu Cheng practiced very hard, starting in the early hours of the morning every day, and practiced until midnight three watches. He can practice for one year, and he can practice for three years.
In the second year, Yikong said to Yu Cheng: "Your fist and foot kung fu has arrived at home, and I will teach you instrument kung fu from now on." ”
Yikong asked Yu Cheng what weapon he liked, Yu Cheng felt that the axe was powerful, and he could split a pine tree in two sections with an axe, so he practiced the axe.
Yikong smiled and said that Yu Cheng has great strength and good explosiveness, which is the most suitable for this kind of weapon. It just so happened that there was a Xuanhua axe in the arsenal of the temple. As soon as he was empty, he took Yu Cheng to the warehouse, took off the Xuanhua axe from the weapon rack and handed it to Yu Cheng.
Yu Cheng took it in his hand and weighed it, feeling a little light.
Yikong said with a smile: "Although this axe is made of muddy iron, it is only twenty-eight catties, with your strength, you must cast a piece of more than eighty catties before it is suitable, and when you learn it in the future, you will go down the mountain to the ironware shop to build it again." ”
Since this day, Yikong has been taught to Yu Cheng Tiefomen 36 Road Pangu Mountain Axe.
Yu Cheng learned the big axe for a year and practiced the Pangu mountain axe to the realm of perfection. On this day, Yikong said to Yu Cheng: "A thousand moves will not be as good as one move, your big axe has learned home, you can go down the mountain." ”
Yu Cheng bid farewell to his master and went down the mountain to return home.
When his father saw Yu Cheng coming back, he asked him how he had learned, and Yu Cheng showed his father the martial arts he had learned. He told his father that he was just missing a weapon to take advantage of, and he wanted to build a big axe.
My father was very happy to see that Yu Cheng was strong in martial arts, and his figure had grown a lot in the past three years, tall and strong, and he was very happy, so he happily created a mountain opening axe weighing 82 catties for Yu Cheng.
Half a month later, the big axe was built, and it was carried to Yu Cheng's house by two blacksmiths.
Yu Cheng gently held the big axe in his hand with one arm, and practiced the Pangu Mountain Opening Axe in the courtyard, bluffing his father and the two blacksmiths for a long time.
Yu Cheng practiced the big axe, his face did not change, and his qi did not grow. The blacksmith gave a thumbs up: "What a god!"
Yu Cheng's name immediately spread throughout Qili and Eight Villages, and people knew that the Yu family in Cangzhou had a master.
It is said that in Cangxian County, not far from Cangzhou, there is also a good man who practices axes. I heard that there was a character in Cangzhou, who made a big axe and had infinite power, so I wanted to go to the meeting for a while.
On this day, this hero came to Yu Cheng's house with a gossip Xuanhua axe, and named him to compete with Yu Cheng. Yu Cheng's father had something to go out, only Yu Cheng was at home, Yu Cheng saw that this person was eight feet long, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and the big axe he was carrying was not inferior to his own mountain axe, so he asked how heavy the big axe was, and the man said eighty-two pounds, and Yu Cheng heard that it was the same weight as his big axe, so he also wanted to compete with it.
As soon as the big man carried the big axe into Cangzhou, it attracted a lot of onlookers, and when he heard that the two were going to compete, the news quickly spread throughout Cangzhou City, and hundreds of people flocked to Yu Cheng's house to watch the two compete.
Yu Cheng saw that there was such a person watching the competition, and he thought that he couldn't lose to the big man in front of him.
The two said that in the competition, they would not hurt each other's lives until the point was reached.
So, the two began to discuss in the courtyard, only to see two big axes like two windmills, whirring wind, two big men roaring like thunder, axe shadows like mountains. The crowd was terrified, and the crowd burst into exclamation from time to time.
The two fought for more than 100 rounds, and there was no winner or loser, at this moment, suddenly the sky was full of dark clouds, day was like night, and suddenly after a lightning bolt, a thunderclap was deafening.
It's terrible, the two people who were fighting in the yard suddenly turned into a dragon and a tiger. The big man is a dragon, and Yu Cheng is a tiger. The dragon and the tiger were tumbling up and down, and the roar shook the sky. The crowd was so frightened that they all fled with their heads in their hands.
Heavy rain poured down in the sky in an instant. Dahan and Yu Cheng suddenly returned to their original shape, and Yu Cheng jumped out of the circle and said: "The rain is very heavy, don't fight! Go to my house to rest first." ”
Yu Cheng let the big man into the house, Yu Cheng let the big man sit in the hall, and then bowed his hand to one of them: "This good man, I, Yu Cheng, am not your opponent, and I am willing to bow down." ”
Seeing that Yu Cheng was so polite, Dahan was a little embarrassed. He also stood up and saluted: "I didn't expect that there is a master like you in Cangzhou, and you have learned it today, your martial arts are indeed not bad, you have such a good martial arts, buried in the countryside, it is indeed a pity, it is better to follow me to the Ming Lord." ”
Yu Cheng asked who the big man was, and the big man smiled and said, "My name is Bian Xiang, and my nickname is the Arhat of the Mountain." I studied art in Shaolin Temple for many years, just returned to my hometown a few years ago, I have a deep hatred, so far I have not reported, I was going to take revenge, I went to Tianhu. ”
When Yu Cheng heard that the other party had studied art in Shaolin Temple for many years, he suddenly admired it. He knows that the world's martial arts come out of Shaolin, and those who can learn art in Shaolin Temple for many years must be strong in martial arts. Yu Cheng asked, "I don't know how Tian Hu is a good man who stands up to the sky?"
Bian Xiang said: "Tian Hu people are called land chasing wind Xiao Chen Ping, not only strong martial arts, but also wise and brave, he loves to make friends with the world's heroes, now Longhu Mountain gathers righteousness, there are seventy-two heroes under his command, 100,000 soldiers, and now has occupied the surrounding sixteen states and counties, I think the world must be Tian Hu's in the future, so I want to go to him." ”
Yu Cheng didn't have the idea of defecting to anyone in his heart, because he knew in his heart that Tian Hu was just a thief, a rebel of the imperial court, and if he went to join him and was known by the imperial court, he would commit a capital crime. He still has an old father at home, and he has such a big family business, how can he devote himself to being a thief? Therefore, he immediately rejected Bian Xiang, saying that he still has to fulfill his filial piety at home, and he has no such idea for the time being.
Yu Cheng asked about Bian Xiang's family affairs, Bian Xiang said that he was born poor, when he was six years old, there was a famine in his hometown, and Li Daguan in the county still sent people to collect rent, Bian's family had no rent to pay, and his father was beaten to death by Li Daguan's thugs. He could only follow his mother to flee from home, begging all the way, when he arrived at the ground in Henan, his mother fell ill and died, just when he was desperate, he met an old monk who took him to Songshan Shaolin Temple, since then, he studied art in Shaolin Temple for thirteen years. Later, he went down the mountain to raise food for the temple, but because he caused trouble for the people to punish profiteers, he was reported to the government, and he was expelled from the mountain gate by his master. He returned home and saw that his house was occupied by Li Daguan, and remembered that Li Daguan had ruined his family, so he decided to avenge his parents.
Bian Xiang saw that it was getting late, and was about to leave, Yu Cheng kept Bian Xiang for dinner and then left, Bian Xiang said that he was revengeful and could not delay any longer, and he said to Yu Cheng that if the government asked him in the future, he would say that he did not know him, so as not to be implicated. If you need his help in any difficulties, you can go to Tian Hu to find him.
After that, Bian Xiang carried a big axe and strode away in the rain.
Yu Cheng looked at Bian Xiang's back and couldn't help but sigh: "What a good man!"
That night, Bian Xiang returned to Cangxian, stabbed the enemy, and went to Tianhu.
The story of Yu Cheng competing with others and becoming a tiger shook Cangzhou, and people gave Yu Cheng a nickname: Thunderbolt Tiger.
