A big advantage of Kungfu is that in the case of unarmed fighting, it is easy for masters to outnumber the opponents. However, Kungfu also has a great disadvantage, that is, the training period is long, the difficulty is large, the level of cultivation is high and low, and the success or failure depends entirely on talent and understanding. The gains and losses are too uncertain. For example, the layman Duan Yu was able to learn a stunt like the Six Meridian Excalibur by mistake, while Murong Fushi became famous, and in the end he was completely defeated and became mad with embarrassment. As for the rookie panda that sells noodles, it is like a joke. Who can think of it? In addition, the martial arts sects are numerous and mixed, they are fighting each other and killing each other, and they have deep opinions. Fearing the secrets and tricks would be leaked, the various factions worked behind closed doors, and there were very few opportunities for exchanges and discussions. The sect is also based on seniority and strict hierarchy. It is commonplace for the heads to alternate between the new and the old in the dark box operation. The upper-level people are mostly good at welcoming, awkward-looking generations, such as tortoises and mice; those with outstanding appearance and both ambition and strength, such as the snow leopard, can only be defeated. Going out of the school became the end of a prisoner. As for the inheritance of Kung Fu, it is even more sticky and left-handed, and sometimes it is a scam. (For example, Hepinggu’s "Secrets of the Dragon and Dragon" is actually a wordless book.) Most of the disciples may never get a glimpse of the essence of Kungfu in their entire lives. Over time, the peerless masters are almost withered, and a crab is not as good as a crab. Heping Valley is a place of martial arts, but only a few of the "Five Heroes" are ranked. This shows the decline of martial arts.
But what about this? Precisely because it is able to outnumber the enemy, so even if there are few masters, it can control the situation. Precisely because of the mysterious and unpredictable, Kung Fu is conveniently monopolized by a few masters and becomes an artifact that cannot be coveted. Because the masters always keep one hand for their apprentices and their arbitrariness in choosing heirs, to a large extent the danger of a small number of owls deceiving their masters and destroying their ancestors is avoided. "Knowledge and harmony, not courtesy, nor feasible." When cheats and tricks are firmly in the hands of a few "supermen" through the hierarchical system, the rule of the Kung Fu masters is also consolidated, and the peace valley's "Harmonious and prosperous age" has a great relationship with "using etiquette".
In addition to institutional guarantees, ideological and political education is also very necessary. Gui Xianren, the master of martial arts in Peace Valley, has entered the state of kung fu. It is said that his mental formula is nothing more than a phrase of "quiet your heart." This is not only the secret of martial arts, but also the ruler's mind. What is "Calm Down"? Han Feizi said it well: "Too much forbids his heart, secondly forbids his words, secondly forbids his affairs", later generations like the great sage Zhu Xi, "Sit in danger or even day and night, without a word", so calm and calm, probably Think hard about the ultimate propositions such as "preserving the laws of nature and destroying human desires". After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the great Neo-Confucianist Liu Zongzhou had a similar insight: "There is nothing in the chest, and it flows with the heaven and the earth. There is nothing in the cover, and everything is what people want; righteous friendship does not seek profit, knowing the way does not count. Gong." It was so quiet, even if the wife got out of the pan, there was nothing wrong in the world. Everyone can "calm down," and major issues such as "how do the incumbents face the current social mentality" will naturally be solved, and Peace Valley will become more "peaceful".
Relying on these two hands, Peace Valley could dominate the rivers and lakes for generations to come. It is a pity that the good times are not long, and the threat of Lord Shen is approaching quietly. This is a decisive battle that determines the fate of the Central Plains.
Lord Shen is the ambitious heir to the Peacock family that ruled Phoenix. Peacock's birth turned out to be a long time ago. Legend has it that since the chaotic time-sharing, the sky is open to the child, the earth to the ugliness, the life is to the Yin, the heaven and the earth rejoin, and all things are born. There are beasts and birds in all things. The beasts grow by the unicorn, and the birds grow by the phoenix. The phoenix has the air of mingling to breed peacocks and rocs. It can be seen why Phoenix is called Phoenix. It turned out to be a commemoration of its ancestors. Peacocks were the worst when they were born, they can eat people, and they can suck people for forty-five miles. However, the years went by and the blood was degraded. By the generation of King Shen's father, he had long become a bourgeois pacifist who was full of fat and enterprising, and gave himself a unique surname—Shen. In history, this surname was rarely used as an emperor and general, but there were many literati and magnates. Because of this, the behavior of the Peacock family is full of utilitarianism. They are good at accumulating money, living in luxury and extravagance, and paying attention to ostentation in everything. The Peacock family is the inventor of gunpowder, but they only use it to create fireworks to satisfy the flamboyant vanity of the bourgeoisie. But when one realized the huge military value hidden in gunpowder, everything changed.
Lord Shen uses gunpowder as a weapon, and he has the style of "business with a sword." The combination of the destruction instinct hidden in the ancient blood line and the desire for expansion of the bourgeoisie has become an irresistible nightmare shrouded in the peace valley. As we all know, gunpowder weapons are an epoch-making product, and its appearance indicates that the power of technology will completely surpass the human power and become the decisive force to promote social change. This also means the end of the Peace Valley Kung Fu Master Committee. These high-spirited heroes will be reduced from the superheroes of the temple to the tragic situation of street training and selling Dali Vajra pills, becoming insignificant. Faced with the aggressive challenge of Lord Shen, the Peace Valley and Kung Fu Master Committee immediately regarded it as a "serious enemy situation" and highly valued it, and determined the strategic policy of "observing the soil, distinguishing between internal and external, and internal tightness and external relaxation". A thorough plan of action attempts to kill Lord Shen and gunpowder weapons forever in the bud in one fell swoop.
The first step of the plan is to spread rumors through the Yang Xiangu hidden in the Peacock family, bluffing out of nowhere that Lord Shen will eventually be overthrown by the "black and white warrior". In history, such ambiguous aphorisms are not uncommon, but most of them can finally be fulfilled. For example, when Qin Shihuang heard about "Hu Ye, who died of Qin", he was so scared that he immediately sent troops to attack the Huns. As a result, Hu was not Bihu. The one who died of Qin was his son Hu Hai; Frieza suspected that the legend of Super Saiyan came true and destroyed. After going to the planet Vegeta, he was really killed by the Super Saiyan. Lord Shen is no exception, he really blood-washed the village where the giant pandas live, and annihilated his clan. Looking back on this slogan, it is really particular: black and white, it seems that only pandas in the Central Plains meet this characteristic, and the pandas are definitely not in the territory of the Peace Valley, otherwise the Kung Fu Masters Committee will not be able to completely stand by, and Shen Wangye Feng, afraid of not daring to confront the Kung Fu masters rashly. This trick to kill with a knife not only diverted Prince Shen’s attention and prevented Peace Valley from direct conflict with Phoenix, but also successfully damaged the reputation of Prince Shen and the Peacock family, making them synonymous with tyrants and butchers, while Peace Valley watched the fire from the other side. , Reap the profit.
The impact of the massacre of Lord Shen's extinction of pandas is naturally extremely bad. Peace Valley then fanned the flames and loudly condemned the humanitarian disaster caused by Phoenix. Due to the pressure of international public opinion, the Peacock family had to deprive Lord Shen of his family inheritance rights and expel him from the country. After this incident, Shen Wangye's parents were hit hard, they died in depression, and died of heirs ever since. Under Yang Xiangu’s mediation, the sovereignty of Phoenix was quickly transferred to the Kung Fu Master Committee. The committee appointed the Thunder Sharp of Dazhui and his two apprentices, Storm Iron Bull, and Meteor Crocodile to settle in Phoenix and become The new local ruler.
On the face of it, Peace Valley was a complete victory, and Lord Shen was a complete defeat. In fact, the matter is not over yet, the centipede is dead but not stiff. After all, Lord Shen has a big family and deep roots. During the years of exile, he did not hesitate to recruit troops to buy horses, and quickly recovered his vitality, and successfully produced a large number of heavy artillery by looting metal objects, and made a comeback. In the battle, the heavy artillery exerted its amazing power and killed the Thunder Sharp on the spot. The other two were so scared that they rebelled and surrendered. Lord Shen quickly regained control of the Phoenix City and formed a huge, artillery-equipped fleet of invincibles, ready to conquer the Central Plains in one fell swoop.
After hearing the news, Heping Valley was shocked and hurriedly organized special forces to sneak into Phoenix and implement beheading operations. Abao, the orphan of the panda clan, became one of the main members of the special forces. Regarding Abao's life experience, the Kung Fu Master Committee has done a clever concealment. It turned out that when the massacre happened, Hepinggu had sent a master to follow up the whole process, deliberately placing a cart with carrots as a cover, leaving a legacy for the panda. "The Analects of Confucius • Yao Yue": "Prosperity and destruction of the country, following the peerless, the rest of the people, the people of the world will return to their hearts." This kind of method of rising and disappearing continues to extinction, but it takes people's hearts and raises the prestige of Peace Valley. After that, the small cart was driven to the gate of the goose that opened the noodle restaurant in a mysterious way. This was nothing more than to familiarize pandas with the life style and behavior characteristics of birds, and to cultivate the foundation for future combat operations. What happened in the future, whether it was the selection of the Dragon Heroes or the Kung Fu training, were all planned by the Kung Fu Master Committee. They want to let the legend of the so-called black and white warrior completely end the myth of Lord Shen's change of dynasty, and let the myth of the Kung Fu era come true forever.
However, the ideal is beautiful, and the reality is cruel. Lord Shen's cannon still blasted the Five Heroes and Dragon Heroes to the north, and the special forces suffered heavy casualties. However, at the critical moment when the invincible fleet was about to leave Phoenix, the panda suddenly caught the cannonball with a supernatural force and bounced it back. The situation changed dramatically, the invincible fleet was reduced to ashes, and Lord Shen died. In the chaos. It is impossible to explain the reason why the panda bounced the shells. It is said that this is because he suddenly realized the profound meaning of Gui Xianliu's "quiet down" and burst out magical powers, but this statement is obviously unreliable. In any case, this grand victory in Langfang determined the fate of the Central Plains. The image of a kung fu master was elevated to the realm of a god, and the gunpowder era was strangled in the infancy. The Peace Valley and its Asian mode of production will continue for a long time until the next crisis. During this period, our dragon heroes will continue to be vigorous, waving their arms and proclaiming loudly: "Man will conquer the sky!"
