Chapter 228: Meeting with the Martial Arts Association
In the bustling and noisy city of G, there is a place that is like a paradise, the Qingshiwan area. Most of the buildings here retain the ancient charm, and in that inconspicuous but unique corner, there is a martial arts association club.
This club is like a treasure house carrying ancient culture. Every inch of the wall and every brick and tile seem to be silently telling those long-lost stories, exuding an antique cultural atmosphere, just like a kind old man, quietly watching the changes of time.
Before I got close, I could hear the faint sounds coming from the courtyard. They were the roars of students who were studying hard. The sounds were uniform, and each one seemed to be a burst of power from their chests, revealing a shocking firm belief.
Intertwined with this passionate voice are the inspiring sounds of drums and music. The drum beats and the music are like war drums urging people to march, inspiring everyone, making their blood boil and showing the true qualities of China's good men.
Jiang Chengyu drove the domineering Range Rover slowly into the parking space. As the handbrake was gently tightened, he walked out of the car gracefully.
He raised his head slightly and looked towards the antique gate of the Wushu Association. He saw a pair of stone lions standing majestically on both sides. Their majestic posture seemed to be guarding this holy place of martial arts, showing the solemnity and majesty of the Wushu Association, which made people feel awe.
At the same time, Mu Xiaoji also came out of the car. His usual calm temperament was clearly revealed. After slowly opening the car door, he first stretched out his slender legs steadily, and then his whole body gradually revealed itself.
He held a cane tightly in his fair hands, took two steps, and gently closed the car door.
He was leaning on a cane with both hands, looking towards the door with sharp eyes, his posture was tall and straight, he looked calm and composed, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile.
He teased, "Little Monster, do you feel like you're back home?"
Jiang Chengyu smiled faintly upon hearing this, and responded, "This is just the beginning, it's still a long way off!"
Mu Xiaoji narrowed his eyes and asked curiously, "I grew up in G City, how come I didn't know there was such a club?"
Jiang Chengyu was so amused by his appearance that he burst into laughter and said, "You, you wish you could live in a book 24 hours a day, never leaving the house, like a lady from a wealthy family. What can you know? Look at the river bend over there, do you know where it leads to?"
Mu Xiaoji looked confused and scratched his head, "Hey, little monster, don't tell me, I really don't know where it leads to!"
Jiang Chengyu patiently explained, "Go straight from here and you will reach the ancient alley, which is your mother's hometown. The Bluestone Alley has north and south exits. We are now in the north, and you went through the south gate when you went back that time."
Mu Xiaoji suddenly realized and slapped his head and said, "Oh, I was absent-minded when I walked several times and I forgot the way!"
"Hahaha... Welcome two distinguished guests to the Martial Arts Association."
A hearty laugh was heard, and Jiang Chengyu and Mu Xiaoji were seen wearing snow-white silk martial arts training suits.
The texture of the training clothes was soft yet stiff, and every stitch and thread was embroidered extremely finely. When worn by the two of them, it brought out their beautiful faces without losing the spirit of a warrior.
This attire not only shows their respect for the Wushu Association, but also highlights their professional qualities in martial arts, as if they were born for martial arts.
At this time, President Bai Yixiu came to greet them personally. President Bai had white hair and a youthful face, and he was full of energy. Every step he took was steady and powerful, as if there was infinite power contained in it.
He was wearing a black martial arts training suit, which was like the deep night sky, mysterious and solemn.
There is a kind of hidden demeanor in him, and his every move reveals the aura of a president, which is impressive.
"Please come in, distinguished guests." President Bai smiled and made a gesture of invitation.
Behind him, Special Assistant Liu followed closely and accompanied President Bai out to greet them, showing his importance to Jiang Chengyu and Mu Xiaoji.
Jiang Chengyu approached Special Assistant Liu steadily, his expression solemn and sincere. He held in his hand an extremely delicate small wooden box, which exuded a faint sandalwood fragrance, and the texture was delicate and exquisite, as if telling the preciousness of the things it carried.
Jiang Chengyu gently handed the wooden box to Special Assistant Liu and said, "This is the secret formula of the inner strength. In my spare time, I carefully organized and printed it out. I hope it can be helpful to the students in the association."
Chairman Bai watched this scene from the side, his eyes full of relief and gratitude. He smiled happily, and his laughter echoed in the air with sincere emotions:
"Thank you, thank you for the gift, Mr. Jiang. This is truly a priceless treasure for our martial arts association."
Jiang Chengyu quickly waved his hand modestly, with a gentle smile on his face: "President Bai, you don't have to be polite. You are a senior, just call me Cheng Yu. This is just my little contribution to the inheritance of martial arts.
Little Guitarist likes to study medicine quietly. With the dream of saving lives, he and I devoted ourselves to running the Renxin Hospital without thinking of passing on our skills.
Now that President Bai is working tirelessly to revive martial arts culture and education in China, it is also a great merit and virtue!"
Special Assistant Liu held the box carefully in both hands, as if he was holding the most precious treasure in the world.
He looked at Jiang Chengyu and Mu Xiaoji with respect, and said politely: "We didn't have a deep understanding of you two before, but after the meeting in the hospital, we came back to get to know you two in detail.
I didn’t know until I understood you. After understanding you, I was completely impressed! I didn’t expect that you, Mr. Jiang, are not only versatile in martial arts;
Moreover, in the field of medicine, they are already authoritative physicians and professors! It is incredible, the two of them are so low-key at such a young age.
Especially after reading the medical papers you wrote, President Mu, each of them is full of essential points, and you have extraordinary insights and attainments in the medical field."
After hearing this, Mu Xiaoji had a warm smile on his face, his eyes sparkling with memories: "This is all thanks to Director Guo of the Red Star Welfare Home. I grew up under his influence.
Since I was a child, I have seen how kind and benevolent he is. He treats every child and elderly person as if they were his own, and he does his best to help everyone who needs help.
From then on, I wanted to be a doctor when I grew up so that I could be by his side and help more people like him.”
"Haha, you have such a broad mind at such a young age. You are truly a good man of China!" President Bai exclaimed.
The four of them chatted happily as they walked slowly forward, and before they knew it they had arrived at the martial arts arena.
On the martial arts field, the students' movements were in unison, and every punch and kick was full of power and momentum.
At the coach's strong and powerful gestures, they stopped their movements and looked at Jiang Chengyu and Mu Xiaoji.
Everyone clasped their fists in unison and said in a loud and uniform voice: "Welcome the two distinguished guests to the Wushu Association."
Seeing this, Jiang Chengyu and Mu Xiaoji hurriedly clasped their fists in response and said in unison: "Thank you, thank you!" Their voices were full of love and respect for these young warriors.
Jiang Chengyu and Mu Xiaoji walked slowly to the center of the martial arts arena, surrounded by the crowd's admiration and expectations.
Jiang Chengyu stood tall and straight, with an imposing manner. He looked around slowly, and those pairs of bright and energetic young faces came into view, full of hope as if he saw the rising sun.
His heart was filled with emotion, and he couldn't help but clasp his fists and said, "Hello, brothers! I, Jiang Chengyu, feel honored to be invited by you all today and come to meet with you all.
As the saying goes, if there are three people walking together, there must be one person who can be my teacher. On the road of martial arts, I have always adhered to my father's earnest teachings, a humble and studious attitude, and an empty cup mentality to study martial arts.
I was fortunate to receive the true teachings from my father and learn this profound inner strength method. This method contains endless mysteries and essences, just like the stars in the deep universe. We need to comprehend and understand it ourselves, so that we can use it freely and exert its true power. "
He paused, then continued, "I have handed over the carefully compiled mental formula to President Bai. I'll have to trouble President Bai to teach it to everyone later.
Now, I will repeat to you the key points of the mental formula that I have summarized. Please remember them carefully.
'Circulate the Qi throughout the body, breathe in and out to return to the origin, all things are Qi, Qiankun is in the abdomen, Qi flows to Dantian, Yuanzhen returns to one, Qi breaks mountains and rivers.'
These few words are the fruit of my years of studying the inner strength and mental method. I hope they can bring some inspiration to you and open up new ideas for you in martial arts practice.”
As soon as Jiang Chengyu finished speaking, everyone started shouting at the same time.
"Teacher Jiang, what you said is too mysterious. We still don't quite understand it just by listening to the formula. Can you demonstrate it to us? We are all looking forward to it!" A young student shouted eagerly.
"That's right, Teacher Jiang, please show it to us! Let us also see this magical method." Others also echoed.
"Teacher Jiang, please come over and demonstrate it to us!" Everyone's voices rose one after another, with excitement and desire flashing in their eyes.
Jiang Chengyu looked around again, seeing the young faces full of anticipation. Their innocent and passionate eyes made him unable to refuse.
He smiled slightly and said reluctantly: "Okay, okay, then I will show you my ugliness! Please give me more guidance, President Bai."
After saying that, Jiang Chengyu turned around and looked at the small bridge and flowing water not far away. It was a picturesque scene, with a small bridge spanning over the gurgling water, surrounded by green trees and swaying flowers and plants.
Jiang Chengyu concentrated his mind slightly and slowly raised his true energy. In an instant, an invisible force seemed to surge around him.
His hands seemed to be drawing the mysterious Bagua, sliding out circles softly and rhythmically, with smooth and seamless movements.
As he moved, the true energy seemed to be summoned and gathered around his body from all directions, then gradually returned to its source.
Jiang Chengyu's eyes flashed, and he shouted, "Break!"
This shout was like thunderclapping from the blue sky. At the small bridge 200 meters away, the water that was originally flowing calmly suddenly surged up as if being controlled by a huge force.
The waves rolled like an awakened dragon rushing into the sky, and then poured down like a waterfall, forming a spectacular water curtain barrier in front of the martial arts field.
The water curtain sparkled with colorful light under the sunlight, and the water droplets splashed and fell on the surrounding ground, like a dream.
This shocking scene stunned everyone instantly. They opened their mouths wide, their eyes stared, and their faces were full of surprise and astonishment.
Their expressions were as if time had frozen at that moment. Their minds were blank and they were completely shocked by the scene before them that was beyond their imagination. No words could describe the waves in their hearts at that moment.
It was not until the barrier that was like a pillar of water fell back into the pond, splashing large amounts of water and making a rushing sound that everyone came back to their senses as if awakened from a dream.
Immediately afterwards, the martial arts arena erupted in thunderous applause, which lasted for a long time. It was an admiration for Jiang Chengyu's superb martial arts and a tribute to the magical charm of martial arts.
