Chapter 66 Xingyiquan vs. Karate
Du Ruo was about ten meters away from the two men. When the blond man slashed with his left hand for the first time and began to turn his body sideways, Du Ruo had already noticed the blond man's subsequent moves.
He also saw that the man only dodged slightly, and after freeing his throat, he no longer retreated or dodged, but instead took a lunge forward with the Mantis Fist, began to move his fingers forward and slightly raised one hand. Du Ruo then understood that the man was trying to seize that glimmer of hope.
Traditional martial arts often involve attacking when the opponent is unprepared and forcing the opponent to defend. If you chop me with a knife, I will dig out your eyes. If you dodge or defend yourself, you will definitely not be able to continue attacking me. This is gambling and also robbery, but he dares to gamble, but Du Ruoke does not.
It was because she saw the signs and understood the man's thoughts that Du Ruo rushed out. If she had waited until all the moves landed on him, there would have been no point for Du Ruo to attack again.
Du Ruo took two steps at a distance of ten meters, then somersaulted and landed between the two men.
Lift the left foot high and bend the knee to place it horizontally on the left side, lean the body to the right, pinch the five fingers together and press the mantis hook acupoint on the wrist, which is the basic martial arts hand shape, the crane's beak hook, usually used to press acupoints and peck the eyes.
"Bang!!! Bang~~"
Two consecutive sounds were heard, one was the blond man's forearm chopping Du Ruo's shin bone, and the other was Du Ruo's crane beak hooking the man's wrist.
The three of them were standing very close at this time. The blond man and the man both stretched out their hands, and Du Ruo stood in the middle.
Du Ruo was not used to standing so close to a man, so she simply bent her knees and pushed her feet upward with force. This move was a bit like the lotus leaf kick, but Du Ruo did not use the side of her foot but her toes, and pushed her toes forward.
It was considered as using half of the Baguazhang technique of the upward-facing kick, but the upward-facing kick usually involves poking the foot from the ground, usually directly into the opponent's throat, killing the opponent in one blow. However, Du Ruo's foot was originally half-raised, so the power was much smaller, and the foot was not poked at the throat, but at the blond man's armpit.
As his toes poked out, Du Ruo leaned back, retracted his crane hook, followed the man's arm, turned around and struck with his elbow, also hitting the man's armpit behind him.
Hitting two people at the same time, Du Ruo supported himself on one foot, faced the sky, poked one foot forward, leaned back and struck with an elbow, demonstrating the core strength of his body to the fullest.
Seeing the blond man and the man both covering their arms and stepping back, Du Ruo slowly retracted his feet and elbows and stood firm again.
Below the armpit is the Jiquan point. Gently tapping it can have a cardiotonic effect, but it is also one of the 108 vital points. Although it will not be fatal after being hit hard, the arm will feel extremely painful and usually you will not be able to exert strength for a short period of time.
"Fuck!!"
“Six batches!!”
It was not until now that the people watching around reacted. They probably did not understand martial arts, so they did not understand the danger of the two people just now. They only saw the two people fighting fiercely. In the blink of an eye, Du Ruo was already in the middle of the two people, and then with one move, he injured and separated the two people. The man’s friend shouted "Fuck", and even the foreign companion of the blond man shouted "Six batches", obviously shocked.
"I don't care if you guys fight to death outside, but this is my B&B. If you get disabled or dead it will affect my business, so... do you still want to fight? If you want to fight, pay for the broken items, then check out and leave the village before fighting again."
Du Ruo stood there, looked around at the two of them, then pointed at the fence that was broken by someone and said something.
The man with the sword on his back didn't say anything. He was too excited just now. In the fierce fight, his blood boiled and he used a move that hurt both sides. Now that he came to his senses, his back was wet with sweat. He also saw that Du Ruo was a master, so he covered his arm and took two steps back to show his attitude. Seeing him like this, Du Ruo ignored him and turned to look at the blond man.
"Hey, I didn't have enough fun just now. Now that you're here it's just right."
The blond man shook his hands, shook his shoulders, and then smiled at Du Ruo. From his appearance, it seemed that Du Ruo's kick just now did not make him lose his fighting power, and he even wanted to have a fight with Du Ruo.
"Are you sure? You should know that he held back just now, otherwise he would have definitely discovered your moves, and I don't practice Mantis Fist."
When Du Ruo saw the other party's posture, he secretly sighed at the other party's abnormal physique. Even though Du Ruo only used half of the move and did not use his full strength in the upward kick just now, an ordinary person would definitely not be able to use his arm for a long time. However, this blond man seemed to have almost recovered. Moreover, Du Ruo heard that the other party spoke in a clear and loud voice and used the Tongbiquan method. It was obvious that he was an expert in domestic boxing, so Du Ruo did not be polite when speaking.
"I know, so I held back. Now, are you ready?"
While the blond man was speaking, he turned sideways and took a horse stance, with his hands forming the shape of knives, one hand forward and the other raised above his head, and his body half squatting. If his opponent was barefoot, you could clearly see his toes digging into the ground. This was an obvious starting move of hard-style karate, which aimed to kill with one strike. Both the fingertips and the palms had great lethality, and the basic exercises often done were to split stone bricks or ice with the knife hands, and bones could be broken with a single blow.
Just now, Du Ruo's shin bone collided head-on with the opponent's arm. If he had been chopped by the palm, Du Ruo might not have been able to carry out the subsequent kick. Of course, Du Ruo has "Qi" that can automatically help defend his body, so the opponent's chopped could not cause any serious harm to Du Ruo.
"trouble."
Du Ruo muttered something, but his body still consciously assumed the starting posture. No martial artist can restrain himself from taking action. It would be a pity not to fight with such a good human stake. The experience gained from fighting with the human stake could not be obtained by practicing hard behind closed doors.
When facing a martial art like karate, which uses powerful movements, if you are not as strong as your opponent, then Baguazhang is the best choice.
If you are stronger and bigger than your opponent, then using Tongbiquan is a good option, which can easily cause a crushing effect.
However, Du Ruo chose Xingyiquan. This was not only because Xingyiquan was the one Du Ruo had practiced the best and for the longest time, but also because Du Ruo wanted to make the opponent suffer a little, but without leaving any external injuries that could cause him to be blackmailed.
Du Ruo's Xingyiquan Eagle Catch starts with a three-body stance, the posture is a bit like Wing Chun's Questioning Hand, but the lower body is completely different. Wing Chun stands in a two-character sheep horse stance, while Du Ruo stands in a chicken foot (three-body stance).
Du Ruo's starting three-body stance was actually not standard and did not look good, at least that was the case in the eyes of Qiangzi, who followed suit and had also practiced Xingyiquan. What he didn't know was that the fighting method was different from the training method, and had to be adjusted according to one's own force habits.
"drink!!"
Seeing Du Ruo ready to fight, the blond man took a step forward and kicked Du Ruo in the face. This was a kick in modern fighting, different from all the kicks in traditional martial arts.
The body rushes forward, and the force plus the body's potential energy make this kick like an arrow, so it is also called "arrow step kill".
