The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

The so-called martial arts hall is actually somewhat similar to the martial arts schools of later generations.

Take the Tianjin County Martial Arts Museum as an example. There are ordinary classes for three-year graduation, crash courses for half-year graduation, and simple classes for self-selected courses. The tuition fees for each class are different.

On the day the museum just opened, only two students signed up. After County Mayor Li, Director Zeng and others left, the entire martial arts hall seemed extremely deserted.

A group of teachers stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes. They couldn't find anything to do at all, so they could only practice boxing and knives, guns and sticks.

Zhou Hexuan found it very interesting. He stood by and watched the teacher teach the two students how to practice boxing, but he was greatly disappointed in the result. The teacher didn't even teach the routines. He talked about a lot of boxing inheritance and kung fu theories, and then asked the students to stand up.

The horse gait familiar to the world is one of the pile methods.

Right now, the two students are practicing the Xingyiquan three-body pose, they are not as motionless as the horse stance, they are living piles.

Zhou Hexuan asked Xue Dian curiously: "What's the use of practicing piles?"

"Standing method is a basic skill with many uses," Xue Dian explained, "such as moving joints and bones, coordinating muscle veins, and being familiar with the way of exerting force. The most important function is to make the practitioner stand more stably and not fall easily. Whether it is On the battlefield, you are still walking in the rivers and lakes, when you are really fighting for life and death, once you fall, you can only wait for death."

"So that's the case." Zhou Hexuan nodded and smiled.

In the MMA arena of later generations, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu once dominated the world. But that's just a ring. In a real battlefield or street fight, trying to lie down on the ground to overwhelm the enemy is purely courting death.

Zhou Hexuan asked the Sun brothers to play with the two coaches of the Guoshu Academy, and then asked Xue Dian to comment.

Xue Dian frowned and said: "Mr. Zhou, you two guards, it seems that what you have learned is not systematic. Xingyiquan also has Bagua steps, and also mixed with various wild ways."

Sun Yongzhen said with embarrassment: "You guys learned martial arts secretly. Master only taught some routines and posting techniques, and the rest is up to you to figure out. As for those wild moves, I came up with them on my own after every fight. .”

"Then you are considered a genius," Xue Dian said in surprise. "As far as last year's National Martial Arts Competition is concerned, it is absolutely no problem for you to qualify for the preliminaries. If you perform well, you may even get a mid-level evaluation. As for Excellent evaluation, don’t even think about it, because there are too many loopholes in your moves, and you will be caught blind when you meet a real master. Just practice with me in the future, and fill up your foundation first.”

"Thank you uncle!" Sun Yongzhen pulled his younger brother to kneel and kowtow.

Xue Dian pretended to stand with his hands behind his back, coughed and said, "Get up, go sign up and pay the tuition."

Zhou Hexuan was sweating profusely, martial arts masters have to eat too.

Speaking of which, Zhang Zhankui, the founder of "Xingyi Bagua", is the leader of the martial arts circle in Tianjin today.

This boxing method combines the advantages of Xingyiquan and Baguazhang. It is famous for being fierce and domineering when fighting. Its disciples have repeatedly achieved good results in various competitions.

The most typical example is Zhao Daoxin. At the Zhejiang Martial Arts Competition at the end of this year, Zhao Daoxin won the thirteenth place. At that time, he was only 21 years old, and Bai had only studied under Zhang Zhankui for a few months.

This is really a rookie, he has never practiced martial arts before. It can be seen that the so-called traditional martial arts that require years of practice to develop kung fu are all nonsense.

Because of the many and powerful disciples, everyone from boxing masters to Jianghu artists who want to engage in martial arts activities in Tianjin must obtain the permission of Zhang Zhankui, who is called "Sai Tian Ba".

Zhang Zhankui is old now and belongs to a respected old man. But he made a sworn brotherhood with Xue Dian for the first time. You must know that Xue Dian is only in his early 40s, which is enough to show that Xue Dian's reputation is not in vain.

A few years later, Zhang Zhankui suffered from esophageal cancer and had a bleak end. Xue Dian donated half of his income every month to help his brother-in-law. It can be seen that although this person is arrogant and pretentious, he is still very loyal.

Sun Yongzhen just ran to the martial arts hall every now and then, learned martial arts with Xue Dian, and even stood up for dinner when he returned home, he was already crazy.

Sun Yonghao is just the opposite. He prefers to practice guns, whether it is a pistol or a rifle. This guy is also obsessed with driving. Every time he goes out, he begs the driver to let him drive. Even if he doesn't have the opportunity to drive, he still sits in the passenger seat to enjoy his addiction.

Zhou Hexuan has only been to the Tianjin County Martial Arts Museum once, and he is not interested in learning martial arts.

Meng Xiaodong is about to give birth at full term, and Zhou Hexuan has been staying at home all day recently, practicing calligraphy and writing articles, and going to Tsinghua University to take a class on Friday, and his life is quite comfortable.

Speaking of Tsinghua, the president Luo Jialun is also in trouble now.

Although Tsinghua University has been converted into a national institution, it still has to rely on the U.S. government funds to provide education funds, and some foreigners and Chinese who are eligible to handle the funds have been appointed as school trustees. After investigation, Luo Jialun found that there was a deficit in the accounts of the Geng Fund, and hundreds of thousands of oceans were missing.

Although Luo Jialun is not as extreme as Zhu Xiang, he still has some cynical attributes. He not only asked for a thorough investigation of corruption, but also reformed the educational administration to eliminate corruption from the system.

The members of the board of directors of Tsinghua University firmly opposed it. If this reform is really implemented, where will they get money in the future?

Ever since, the school directors linked up with teachers and students who were dissatisfied with Luo Jialun, launched a campaign to denounce the principal, and forced Luo Jialun to resign.

Money, as long as money is involved, few people can maintain their innocence.

Those school managers are highly respected and respected by teachers and students, but who would have expected that they secretly embezzled school funds?

The north is fairly peaceful, but the south has already been at war again.

Just a few days before the establishment of Tianjin Guoshu Museum, the Jianggui War officially broke out, and the ensuing battle was very funny.

First, He Jian, a general of the Gui family, announced his support for Chang Kaishen, and then Li Mingrui and Yang Tenghui turned their backs. Only a few days after the war broke out, the three generals under Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi had already been bribed by Chang Kaishen with money, what a fart!

Only one week after the start of the war, Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi abandoned Wuhan and fled towards the west of Hubei.

Faced with such a situation, Feng Yuxiang from the north was a little confused-it was agreed to fight against Jiang together, but I haven't started fighting here yet, why are you guys already collapsed?

At the same time, Hu Shi and Chen Dezheng finally started to fight each other in Shanghai.

Hu Shi was very angry this time, because Chen Dezheng actively advocated for the dictatorship of the Nationalist Party, which violated the concept of freedom in his heart. Hu Shi published several articles in a row, and even openly questioned Sun Yat-sen's theory, and was attacked wildly by the imperial literati of the Kuomintang.

Then, there is no more...

Except for Xu Zhimo's "New Moon" magazine, no other newspaper dared to publish Hu Shi's article. Zhou Hexuan's "Ta Kung Pao" did not dare, once it was published, it would be banned.

Just when Meng Xiaodong was about to give birth, the news from France finally came back to Asia. Not only China, but even Japan, the Philippines, Vietnam, Singapore and other places know that Mr. Zhou's works have caused a sensation in Europe, and even the governor of Saigon is reading books such as "The Rise of Great Powers" and "Guns and Cannons".
