Chapter 752: Dodging Bullets
Chapter 752: Dodging Bullets
After the disciple-taking ceremony was over, the people who came to watch the ceremony dispersed. A woman in her early twenties came over and said, "Ling'er, won't you introduce your master to me?"
Huo Ling'er did not hesitate and said directly: "Master, this is Chen Aiyang's sister, Chen Bin, the Tai Chi master of the Chen Group. I usually call her Sister Bin."
"Chen Bin has met Master Lu. I originally thought that Ling'er was going to worship an old boxer, but I didn't expect that he was a master at such a young age. It seems that there are really hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Chinese mainland."
Lu Cheng nodded slightly: "I have heard that Chen Aiyang is known as the best master in Nanyang. I would like to learn from him when I have time."
"My brother does like to make friends through martial arts, but he always knows when to stop." Chen Bin deliberately emphasized the word "when to stop", fearing that he would attract a master whose strength he did not know for his brother.
When real martial arts masters compete with each other, unless there is a huge gap in strength, it is difficult for them to control the strength when fighting. If they are not careful, they can easily start a fight and cause death or disability.
Of course, when the gap in strength is obvious, there is no need to fight, just shaking hands can test each other's strength.
After Huo Ling'er became his disciple, Lu Cheng also began formal teaching. Since she had successfully entered the dark energy, the remaining practice was to combine the standing practice and the internal training method to spread the dark energy throughout the body and thus achieve mastery.
However, it is easy to master the dark energy, but it is difficult to master it. Even the famous figures like the Three Tigers of Guangdong have only been hovering at the dark energy level throughout their lives.
Unless one has extraordinary talent and enough perseverance and determination, one can achieve the level of transformation.
When Lu Cheng was instructing Huo Ling'er, he always gave her instructions alone in a quiet place. Even Huo Qiyun, Huo Ling'er's older brother, could not be disturbed easily.
However, real guidance does not require a teacher to lecture for a whole day.
In fact, once the boxing theory is explained, it is also very simple. However, many people may have practiced the skills well, but it is difficult to express them in concise and accurate language. In the end, they can only use a sentence that can only be understood, not explained, and a seemingly plausible description to let the apprentice understand.
At the same address, the results will certainly be different if a famous teacher teaches and an ordinary teacher teaches.
Huo Qiyun did not appear until Lu Cheng had finished teaching. He asked, "Master Lu, the speed you showed before was really amazing. I have heard some stories about martial arts masters during the Republic of China period. For example, Cheng Tinghua, a Baguazhang master, died at the hands of foreigners. If that Master Cheng had your speed, he would not have died at the hands of foreigners, right?"
"Cheng Tinghua's strength was not low, but he was not aware of the power of the foreign guns at the time and was somewhat careless. In addition, when he was dodging the shooting, his braids got tangled in tiles, which led to his death. If Cheng Tinghua had been on guard, two or three pistols would not have been able to do anything to him."
Huo Qiyun thought for a moment after hearing this, and couldn't help but ask, "Master Lu, what you mean is that when your Kung Fu reaches a certain level, you can dodge bullets?"
"Yes, if it's a pistol, I can dodge it. Of course, if it's a dozen well-trained special forces soldiers, armed with automatic rifles or submachine guns, cross-fire coverage, even the most powerful masters will have no choice but to die."
"That's incredible. Can a person really dodge a bullet? It sounds incredible."
Lu Cheng chuckled: "Looking at the calluses on your hands, you must have practiced shooting. How about this, you find two more gunmen, and each of you three holds a pistol, and you stand in front of me and shoot at me. I will show you."
Huo Ling'er couldn't help but ask: "Master, is this too dangerous?"
"Ling'er, today I will let you see what kind of abilities one has when one reaches the upper level of martial arts."
Teaching cannot just involve explanations. Sometimes it is necessary to combine practice with demonstrating some abilities in advance to make apprentices more motivated to learn.
"Master Lu, there is a special shooting range behind here. The place is quite spacious. Please move over."
Not long after, Lu Cheng, Huo Qiyun and Huo Ling'er arrived at the shooting range, where several Huo family bodyguards were already waiting. Two of them were carrying three pistols, all of which were small-caliber self-defense pistols that were easy to carry.
Huo Qiyun took a pistol from a bodyguard and looked at Lu Cheng: "Master Lu, let's do it one by one."
Huo Qiyun was skeptical about whether Lu Cheng could dodge the bullet and did not want to hurt Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng grabbed a handful of white talcum powder from the training ground to prevent his hands from slipping, found a place to stand, and then sprinkled the talcum powder around his feet. The meaning was obvious: he would stand at the position of the two footprints and not move out to avoid the bullets.
Huo Qiyun was also stunned, then hesitantly raised his gun and pointed it at Lu Cheng's arm: "Master Lu, I'm going to shoot."
Lu Cheng nodded slightly, and Huo Qiyun immediately pulled the trigger. But at the moment of pulling the trigger, Huo Qiyun was surprised to find that Lu Cheng's arm seemed to disappear in an instant, and the bullet fell completely into the air.
Huo Qiyun didn't believe it, so he aimed at Lu Cheng's other arm and thigh and fired two more shots, but both shots hit empty space. He could only see the target before pulling the trigger each time, but the target disappeared instantly after the bullet left the gun.
Seeing this, Huo Qiyun immediately waved his hand and asked another bodyguard to stand up and load his gun.
Lu Cheng smiled and said, "You three can come together. I don't mind if you shoot from different directions."
The three of them looked at each other, then immediately spread out in a fan shape and shot at Lu Cheng at the same time.
But just after the three men opened fire, Lu Cheng in front of them turned quickly, disappeared from their sight and reappeared, calmly dodging the three bullets.
Upon seeing this, Huo Qiyun looked at the two bodyguards, and then they came together to have a brief conversation.
After that, the two bodyguards shot at both of Lu Cheng's feet at the same time, while Huo Qiyun shot at one of Lu Cheng's arms.
However, just as another bullet was about to fire out of the gun, Lu Cheng instantly lifted his feet off the ground and nimbly changed his body shape. After dodging three bullets, he fell back to his original position without any error.
"Bang bang bang" After all the bullets in the three men's guns were fired, Lu Cheng was still unharmed.
At this moment, Huo Qiyun and his bodyguards looked at Lu Cheng with astonishment.
Huo Ling'er was full of admiration and couldn't help asking, "Master, how long do I need to practice to be able to dodge bullets?"
"It's hard to say. If you want to dodge bullets, you not only need to practice your hidden power to a certain level, but also need to have extremely sharp perception. These can only be honed through real combat. You are still far from that now."
"OK then."
After this bullet dodging demonstration, Huo Qiyun completely allowed his little sister to learn martial arts from Lu Cheng.
While teaching Huo Ling'er, Lu Cheng also accumulated some new experiences from the teaching process.
The same martial arts will produce different effects on different people.
In the end, you may even take a different path.
Just like Tai Chi, there are Chen-style Tai Chi, Yang-style Tai Chi, and Sun-style Tai Chi. Xingyiquan has Shang-style Xingyi, Guo-style Xingyi, and so on.
There are many ways to reach the top of the mountain, and each one has scenery worth appreciating.
