Chapter 57 Second Painful Youth
A quarter of an hour later, loud screams were heard from the cabin.
Not to mention Wangjiagou, the two neighboring teams could vaguely hear it, which was extremely embarrassing.
Hua Feifei, Han Jing and Xu Fei were lying on the ground, unable to move a finger. Old Master Wang kept sniffing at the side. He finally understood why Ye Yu asked him to come out of retirement. This girl was even more fierce in teaching people to kill the devils than he was back then.
Let’s start with the teaching at the beginning.
The martial arts inheritors and scientists of the Hope Base of the End of the World have jointly compiled three sets of martial arts: beginner, intermediate and advanced.
The beginner level is also called basic martial arts. The complete set has 108 moves and is suitable for more than 90% of ordinary people.
The remaining 10% are physically disabled. It is worth mentioning that some physically disabled people are not disabled, but also have physiological abnormalities. For example, mirror people are not unlearnable, but they need special adjustments in teaching and teaching according to their aptitude.
Intermediate martial arts has a total of 72 moves and is an evolved version of beginner martial arts. Only when beginner martial arts are practiced to the extreme and physical fitness meets certain requirements can one enter this stage.
Mr. Wang's strength is comparable to that of a beginner warrior, but the martial arts he practices are not the same. In addition, he is old and his bones are fragile, so it is difficult for him to proceed to the next round of learning unless he has the assistance of expensive herbal baths and acupuncture.
It's not the end of the world now, so medicinal baths still have some possibilities, but acupuncture - Ye Yu has seen it but never tried it. He has learned about it but has never performed it himself.
There are 36 moves in high-level martial arts, which are the advancement of intermediate-level martial arts. Only a very few martial artists can reach this level, and their strength is no less than that of low-level psychics.
The moves practiced by psychics are also derived from advanced martial arts. Each move is very similar, with only changes in details to make it more difficult. Therefore, it is also jokingly called the advanced version of psychics or ceiling martial arts.
Before starting the teaching, Ye Yu demonstrated it first, from the basic 108 moves to the ceiling 36 moves.
Her movements were very smooth.
But the purpose of these three basic martial arts is not for fighting. Fighting has various external skills and experiences. Its main purpose is to exercise the body, so it is closer to judo or yoga. Many movements are difficult just by looking at them.
When Hua Feifei, Han Jing and Xu Fei started to learn, "Ahhhh, it hurts, it hurts" had become their mainstream tone. This was different from the pain in the joints and muscles. Just with the first movement, they could feel the pain from the soles of their feet to their whole body.
This can actually be explained by science.
"Traditional Chinese medicine experts believe that the human foot is a microcosm of the entire body. The physiological functions of the internal organs are reflected in the reflex zones of the feet. This is why there is a saying that 'regular foot soaking' is good for the body."
Practicing martial arts is a process of stimulating the acupuncture points. It is not just about pricking the Gong acupoint for tinnitus or pressing the Kongzui or Jianjing acupoints for nosebleeds. Acupuncture is for curing diseases, while practicing martial arts is for opening up the organs and meridians throughout the body.
Ye Yu is very strict about basic martial arts.
First, they completed the action with her "assistance", and then they did it themselves. Using her excellent eyesight to measure, each action had to reach a completion rate of more than 98% to be considered passed, and only after confirmation of completion could they proceed to the next one.
Therefore, they spent one to two and a half hours on the first action alone.
Hua Feifei took the shortest time, one hour and twelve minutes.
This is normal. Women's strength and speed are not as good as men's, but their average flexibility is higher than men. They often learn and practice a whole set of skills faster than men, and therefore get more benefits from it. This is also one of the reasons why the average strength of men and women is gradually equal.
In addition, children tend to learn at an average rate faster than adults.
When Ye Yu was teaching Hua Feifei the second move, he was stopped by Mr. Wang: "You can't become fat in one bite, and you can't reach the horizon in one step. They have practiced this move for today."
Indeed, even if Hua Feifei stopped, the pain in her body did not completely disappear, and she did not have the comfortable feeling after the massage.
This is due to excessive acupuncture stimulation. If she wants to feel comfortable while practicing martial arts, her body organs must be opened up.
Ye Yu:
"All right."
Mr. Wang was very curious: "How long did it take you to learn this set of movements?"
Ye Yu:
"one day."
In the last days, people learn skills just to save their lives, so naturally they study hard, no matter if it's martial arts or shooting. When forced into extreme environments, everyone's speed increases, and no one can learn for more than seven days.
The instructors at the base don’t have that much patience, and those who exceed that limit will be expelled directly.
Of course, studying so intensively and so fast will definitely harm your body.
But in the apocalypse, people are not afraid of affecting their lifespan, because living to the end of their lives in the apocalypse is a joke, not to mention that people with special abilities have self-healing mechanisms.
As a semi-expert, Mr. Wang could see that these moves were truly extraordinary and extremely difficult. It was hard to imagine one person learning them all in one day. He sighed, "No wonder you said they couldn't reach your level. Your talent is truly one in a million, truly rare."
Ye Yu knew that he had misunderstood something, but it was difficult to explain her martial arts training. After all, in this era, her instructor Gan Lin must not have been born yet, and it was not easy to fabricate such a person.
After ten minutes of holding on, Hua Feifei collapsed on the ground, tears streaming down her face, unable to lift a finger.
Han Jing and Xu Fei were still struggling with the first move. Han Jing was the second one to learn it. After Han Jing learned it, it took Xu Fei more than fifty minutes to master it. This time showed that his body was the most rigid.
Learning the first movement alone is so difficult, and the 108 movements become increasingly difficult as they go on. Moreover, connecting them together and connecting the movements diagonally is even more difficult.
Ye Yu also asked Xu Fei to lie on the ground for half an hour, allowing the residual heat from practicing martial arts to flow through his body.
Then give the three of them a simple massage to recover.
In fact, if the three of them were not going down the mountain soon, Ye Yu would have skipped the massage step. He would have waited for them to recover on their own and then taken a hot bath to clear the meridians.
If they can get some tonic Chinese medicinal herbs such as ginseng, astragalus, deer antler, musk, cordyceps, dendrobium, snow lotus, etc., then it can be considered a medicinal bath.
Old Master Wang always thought of himself as a strict teacher. When he was young, he taught students in the village. The leaders of his class were like mice seeing a cat when they saw him, and he could even stop children from crying.
But compared with Ye Yu, he was actually a soft-hearted person. He really should let the captain and the others see what true "cruelness" was.
At least before he said goodbye, he still remembered to give Han Jing, Xu Fei and Hua Feifei each a bowl of ginger soup.
Ye Yu sipped the old man's ginger soup and said before leaving: "When they can perform more than ten moves in a row, they can go up the mountain to learn external skills from the old man, or even exchange external skills."
There are many kinds of martial arts in the apocalypse, but she mainly learns them to kill strange beasts, and they are more about killing moves. Learning external skills is not as suitable for the current situation as learning from Grandpa Wang.
Old Master Wang had a vague idea of this. Every movement of Ye Yu was too clean and neat. The martial arts he learned were obviously closely related to Taoism, but when he used them, they did not seem so Taoist. When he tasted them carefully, he could see the Taoist freedom and ease everywhere.
Ye Yu's knowledge is too advanced and is not suitable for beginners, just like a university professor may not be able to get along well with elementary school students. As long as Hua Feifei and the others have some changes in their physical condition, the ranger's teaching may be more suitable for them.
Old Master Wang did not refuse, but still gave Ye Yu a look of disgust.
He snorted coldly and closed the door.
"Not only is he socially anxious, he's also a bit tsundere." Ye Yu shrugged.
Hua Feifei:
"What is tsundere? Pride?"
Ye Yu looked her up and down: "You are like this."
I always feel that it is not a good word. Hua Feifei really has no confidence in herself.
There is a saying:
“It’s easier to go up the mountain than to go down.”
Next, Hua Feifei, Han Jing and Xu Fei deeply understood the meaning of this sentence.
When going up a mountain, the center of gravity of the human body is downward, and the force exerted by oneself is upward. The two forces are in opposite directions, achieving a balance and being easier to control. However, when going down a mountain, the center of gravity is downward, and the force exerted by oneself is also downward, making it very easy to lose balance, especially when the mountain is high and the slope is steep, and one may end up rolling down accidentally.
Although the three of them wished they could actually roll down, just controlling their body balance required the use of multiple muscles, especially the legs.
When a person is able to control the body's center of gravity, he or she can use the downward force of gravity as a kind of acceleration, making it easier to go downhill.
Ye Yu is a typical example.
When he climbs up the mountain and jumps among the woods, he looks like a light elf in the mountains, especially with a little sparrow often standing on his shoulder. When he goes down the mountain, he seems to be flying. Coupled with the vast snowy world, he looks more like a fairy descending from the sky.
But this fairy is really cruel. She holds the candy in her mouth and watches them struggle hard. If they lose their balance accidentally, they will surely be greeted with vicious sarcasm.
For example:
“You look like you have an underdeveloped brain and an underdeveloped cerebellum.”[1]
“…”
What is the cerebrum and cerebellum? I don’t fully understand it, but underdevelopment is definitely not a good thing.
Of course, they were also grateful that when they really encountered danger, Ye Yu would grab them or lend a hand to pull them out of the snow pit.
When we got to the foot of the mountain, it was already dark. It was even later than yesterday when we returned from the Red Flag Brigade. We were even more tired and miserable than yesterday.
There were more people gathered at the foot of the mountain to greet them than yesterday.
It’s just that yesterday the villagers were worried that they would encounter something when they went out, but today they didn’t leave the village and screamed louder and more miserably than anyone else on the top of Nanshan Mountain. They were very curious about what these educated youth were doing on the top of the mountain.
Some people also told the children in the village about the glorious deeds of the forest rangers in the past, which frightened them so much that they immediately said they should be obedient and not be sent to Nanshan.
Yes, generation after generation, Mr. Wang can now even stop babies from crying.
Ye Yu touched her nose, and she seemed to put some of the blame on the old man.
In short, to put it simply, these people came to watch the fun. Even the captain and his wife were among them. It can only be said that there is really too little entertainment in the countryside.
