Chapter 217 Martial Arts Master
Li Changhe is serious about practicing shooting.

After all, the gun is faster than the others at seven steps away!
Within seven steps, the gun is accurate and fast!

The reputation of American-style Iai as the best in the world is not an exaggeration.

Just when Li Changhe was shooting seriously, Jiang Yuan, the instructor Liu Mantang found for Li Changhe, came over.

"Commander, where did you find such a genius? This guy's gun sense is really good."

As a veteran scout, Jiang Yuan has trained many recruits in shooting, and there are many talented ones among them.

After all, the sense of gun can actually be trained.

Many people become familiar with guns and shoot for a long time, and generally develop a special feeling.

Just like many gunmen take out their guns and shoot wherever they point, this is often a reflection of their gun sense.

But generally speaking, this is developed slowly through long-term training and practice with the weapons in hand.

Li Changhe was obviously a novice and was using an unfamiliar gun, but even so, in less than an hour, he had developed his own feel for the gun.

This only shows that this guy's physical condition and brain reaction are too good.

This kind of person is what people used to call a genius, the kind who can learn anything very quickly.

“Maybe it’s a family heirloom!”

Liu Mantang said with a smile at this time.

It seems that Li Changhe's uncle also made a name for himself in this way.

"call!"

After finishing firing the volley in his hand, Li Changhe wiped the sweat from his head and walked towards the barracks.

Although I was sweating all over at the moment, I have to say that the feeling of shooting was really great.

In his previous life, he read novels with concepts such as "breathing control" and "three points and one line" written in them, which finally gave him the space to put into practice today.

Coupled with his excellent physical fitness and eyesight, he has achieved his current brilliant performance.

Of course, this is only a preliminary success, and I am still far from becoming a master.

Li Changhe doesn't necessarily have to become a shooting expert, but he must be familiar with the feeling of using a gun.

His senses are actually very sharp now, and he often has an inexplicable sense of awareness when being stared at by others.

So theoretically speaking, once he gets familiar with the gun, he will probably feel the same when a gun is pointed at him.

This thing has no scientific basis and is often a metaphysical reaction of the sixth sense.

But Li Changhe thought he might be able to turn this intuitive reaction into reality.

Back in the barracks at the shooting range, there was a large fan blowing inside. Li Changhe then took off his coat and blew the fan with his bare chest.

"Good boy, I didn't expect you to have muscles like this."

Seeing the tight and firm muscles on Li Changhe's body, Liu Mantang said with some surprise.

Jiang Yuan on the side also looked at Li Changhe's figure curiously.

"Commander, your nephew is a martial artist, right?"

Before European and American culture invaded the mainland on a large scale, fitness as a sport was not popular and most people did not have this kind of tendon meat.

People with muscular bodies like this are either trained as soldiers or martial artists.

"By the way, Changhe, I remember your mother said that you also learned martial arts in the countryside, right?"

Liu Mantang also remembered at this time that he had heard Shen Yuxiu mention it during the previous dinner.

Li Changhe smiled and nodded: "I learned a few moves from a militia captain in the countryside. It's not a very advanced martial art."

"What a coincidence, the instructor I found for you is also a martial artist."

"He's a legitimate descendant of the Plum Blossom Praying Mantis Fist. How about a fight with him?"

Liu Mantang asked with a smile.

Li Changhe looked at Jiang Yuan in surprise: "Captain Jiang is the successor of Plum Blossom Praying Mantis Fist?"

Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded: "He is not really a successor, just a few tricks passed down from my family."

"Practice?"

Li Changhe also became interested at this time.

He had practiced with Li Shaomin in school before, but although Li Shaomin also learned some fighting techniques from the military, he only had so many moves, and after he became familiar with them, they posed no threat to Li Changhe.

Now that he has met a master, Li Changhe has become interested again.

"Alright, let's have a try, and that's it."

Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded, then took off his grass green short-sleeved shirt, leaving only the white vest underneath.

"Why don't you take off your vest, too."

Li Changhe persuaded at this time.

It’s not that he has any special hobby, but these days, vests are also one of the most precious items of clothing for soldiers.

Before 79, the country was not rich enough to provide soldiers with complete clothing from head to toe.

Their short-sleeved T-shirts and vests were all bought by themselves using military cloth coupons issued by the state.

Unlike later generations, it was a complete set of military supplies from inside to outside, and the quality was very good.

"Okay!" Jiang Yuan thought for a moment, then nodded and took off his vest.

No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. It would be a big loss if a vest was torn.

Like Li Changhe, Jiang Yuan also has muscular body and looks very powerful.

The two men did not go out, but stood in the open space inside the barracks, and then started fighting.

As soon as the two men fought, Li Changhe felt something was wrong.

Jiang Yuan's fighting skills are much higher than Li Shaomin's, and many of his attacking techniques are both brutal and strange.

Li Changhe relied on his physical reaction speed and ability to withstand blows to fight against Jiang Yuan.

Because Jiang Yuan often holds back at many critical moments, on the surface, the two men appear to be evenly matched.

But in fact, Li Changhe knew that Jiang Yuan had shown mercy to him.

But even so, Li Changhe still enjoyed the fight.

It's like having a master teaching you moves. Although Li Changhe often made mistakes at the beginning, he gradually became familiar with it.

However, when Li Changhe felt really familiar with him, Jiang Yuan made a move, forced Li Changhe back, and waved his hand to signal that he would not fight anymore.

"How's his Kung Fu?"

Liu Mantang asked Jiang Yuan curiously at this time.

Jiang Yuan said thoughtfully: "I saw that his punches and kicks were very mixed, with shadows of the Monkey King's Pi Gua, and some Bagua moves."

"And these moves are actually quite practical, a bit like the kung fu of the big sword team in the Northeast Army back then."

The Northeast Army's broadsword team was taught by Geng Dehai, the creator of Dasheng Pi Gua. Because of its high practicality, it later became a target of the Japanese army.

Li Changhe shook his head and said, "I didn't say any routine at the time. I just learned it for fighting."

"Later, I practiced with my classmates and found that the effect was quite good. I gradually became proficient in it, but I am still not as good as you, Captain Jiang."

"I can just feel that you have given up a lot of space for me."

Jiang Yuan stopped using some of his moves, and Li Changhe could feel it.

"Our Mantis Boxing is actually mostly fierce and lethal. Among martial arts, it is not as gentle as Tai Chi, nor as flexible as Bajiquan."

"But when we're sparring with our own people, we definitely can't use our killing moves. And I see that your moves are very powerful, plus your physical fitness, if it really comes to a life-and-death situation, we'll definitely both lose."

Jiang Yuan said with a smile.

Li Changhe hesitated for a moment after hearing this: "Captain Jiang, I don't know if this martial art of yours is not to be passed on to outsiders. If it is, can you teach me?"

He is now in good physical condition and has experienced the fun of martial arts. If he can become a master, it will be a trump card for him.

"Why not? I don't have that kind of mentality of cherishing what I have. I often teach my comrades in the company some skills."

"But the power of Mantis Boxing has many strange requirements. Some people's physical conditions just can't meet them, so don't force the power, otherwise it's easy to sprain your waist and hips."

"Well, I'll teach you a few simple moves of the Plum Mantis, and you try them first."

Jiang Yuan was not stingy at this time and began to teach Li Changhe seriously.

As the saying goes, heroes appreciate heroes. Although Li Changhe is not a soldier, Jiang Yuan recognizes his talent in shooting and strength in fighting.

What's more, this guy is Liu Mantang's nephew, a top student at Peking University, and a well-known writer.

With all the halos added together, Jiang Yuan's trust in Li Changhe was fully increased.

While Li Changhe and Jiang Yuan were practicing guns and boxing, Ling Zifeng was sitting in an office in a school on Di'anmen West Street in downtown Beijing.

This is the Beijing Amateur Sports School, also known as the Beijing Shichahai Youth Amateur Sports School, which is an amateur sports school affiliated to the Beijing Sports Committee.

However, at this moment there is the only martial arts team in the city, the famous Beijing Wushu Team.

Ling Zifeng came here to seek Buddhist scriptures.

Thinking of martial arts masters, the first place that came to his and Wang Yang's mind was this place. After all, the martial arts team here has become the business card of Beijing, and they even often visit abroad.

"Director Ling, you mean, you want to find a martial arts expert to be your action director, right?"

In the office, Wu Bin, the coach of the martial arts team, asked Ling Zifeng with a smile.

Ling Zifeng nodded: "Yes, Coach Wu often goes abroad, he should know Bruce Lee."

"I know, I understand."

"You mean, you want Bruce Lee's fighting style for your movie?"

Wu Bin immediately understood Ling Zifeng's request. He had also seen Bruce Lee's movies abroad.

"Yes, we at the Beijing Film Studio would like to find someone who knows something similar to Kung Fu to be our martial arts instructor. I wonder if there is anyone in our martial arts team?"

Wu Bin thought about it for a moment, then shook his head.

"To be honest, if you're looking for a martial arts expert, I have one here, but I don't really have one with this style."

"But I know someone who should be able to meet the conditions you mentioned and design the moves you want."

"Oh? Who is it?"

Ling Zifeng asked curiously at this moment.

"Comrade Yu Hai, the head coach of our Ludong Wushu Team, is currently leading the team to exchange ideas in Beijing. I think you can go find him. He has been practicing boxing since he was a child, and he is the successor of the Seven-Star Praying Mantis Boxing."

"The Seven-Star Mantis advocates close combat and fierce moves. It belongs to the school of deadly martial arts. In fact, it is exactly suitable for the kind of movie style you mentioned."
