Luotuoya Village is dominated by Liang and Zheng, and most martial arts practitioners are Liang. In the last century, there were also many martial arts practitioners named Zheng. The martial arts masters in Luotuoya Village include Liang Wenxiu in the middle of Qing Dynasty, Liang School, Liang and Liang students in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, Liang Haishui in the last century, and now.
According to a preliminary investigation, people in Luotuoya Village practiced martial arts in the den of mentoring in Dengfeng, which began in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. According to Mr. Liang Baozhi, a famous boxer, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the population of Henan dropped sharply due to the war. It is said that when the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty withdrew from the north, he sent people to scatter gold ingots all the way to attract people to take them, and then the officers and men massacred them, leaving Henan thousands of miles desolate. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered immigrants from Shanxi to Henan. In the second year of Hongwu, Liang Qi, the ancestor of Liang's family, was responsible for calling people to move to Henan. Liang Qi was proficient in martial arts, but he didn't want to force the poor family, so he didn't make much progress in convening the meeting, and it was difficult to meet the satisfaction of his boss, so he was ordered to move to Henan together. Liang Qi led his family and other immigrants to immigrate to Henan. After fifteen days' journey from Hong Tong, he arrived in Dengfeng County. Liang Qi, who passed the Book of Changes, saw that Camel Cliff Village was backed by Funiu Mountain and faced the Yinghe River, which was a phoenix terrain, and decided to settle down. Liang Qi left his hometown because he was an official smaller than Sesame, so he left a will before he died. As long as Liang's descendants have a bowl of rice soup to drink, they will never be officials or politicians again. Liang Qi's two sons, Liang Qing and Hong Liang, followed their father's instructions and practiced martial arts while farming. Liang Ying, the third ancestor of Liang's family, was both civil and military, especially proficient in red boxing. Although he took several science exams, he avoided them because of his ancestors' training. It is said that there are ten kinds of Da Hong Boxing in Dengfeng, and Liang Yinglian's Da Hong Boxing ranks second, which is very different from the Da Hong Boxing handed down from Shaolin Temple. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the Japanese invaders invaded the southeast coast, and the emperor recruited talents all over the country to fight against the Japanese pirates. Liang Jia of Luotuoya, who has been practicing martial arts for generations, thinks that although it is ancestral training, he should also make some contributions to the country, so he chose seven people who are proficient in martial arts to join the army. These seven men have made great achievements in the battle against the Japanese invaders and are quite famous. Then five people died. After the enemy was wiped out, the remaining two stayed in the southeast on orders from the government. Therefore, they are "monks" in the genealogy of the Liang family in Luotuoya, and their names cannot be verified. They live in the southeast, and of course they will spread the traditional martial arts of Camel Cliff there.
After the Qing army entered the customs, be on guard against the Qing dynasty and regain sight. I am afraid that people will rebel with martial arts, that is, I ordered Shaolin monks and people nearby not to practice martial arts. It is said that he also sent troops to raid Shaolin Temple. When he copied the Liang family, he collected and burned the ancestral sword spectrum and fist spectrum of the Liang family, as well as the intensive lecture notes on practicing internal strength and internal qi. After the raid, Liang's great martial arts were also lost, only the small martial arts were kept. Small martial arts is not the same as the Baduanjin handed down by Shaolin Temple, but similar to the Eighteen Styles of Taiji. Before the Qing Dynasty, the traditional Wushu in Luotuoya Village and Shaolin Wushu had exchanges, but the relationship was not very close. After the middle of Qing dynasty, it gradually merged. In particular, Gao Zu had a good personal relationship with Zande, a monk in the lower house of Shaolin Temple, while Gao Zu Liang School also had a deep relationship with Miao Xing, a monk in the lower house of Shaolin Temple. The traditional Shaolin Wushu in Luotuoya Village has a long history and enjoys a high reputation in Dengfeng and surrounding counties and cities. It is said that Liang's family will always be a captain, and the eldest sons of all dynasties wear T-shirts, which fully shows that Liang's family is a martial arts family. Martial artists in Luotuoya Village also believe in King Kinnalo, the second generation of Shaolin Temple stick monk, and all other teachers call Kinnara "Nuo Nuo Ye".
Second, the inheritance of traditional martial arts in Luotuoya Village and the famous martial artist Luotuoya Village Liang, from the ancestor to the third ancestor, knew martial arts. In the middle of Ming Dynasty, seven martial artists went to the anti-Japanese battlefield. At the beginning of Qing Dynasty, when Tony Leung Ka Fai, the eighth ancestor of Liang family, gave lectures at Songyang Academy, he began to pay equal attention to civil and military affairs. According to Liang Baozhi, a famous boxer in Camel Cliff, it is said that Emperor Qianlong went to Songyang Academy to study. Tony Leung Ka Fai asked him to learn martial arts first, then literature, and personally taught him to play Hongquan, so that he could be both civil and military. After Qianlong succeeded to the throne, he went to Zhongyue five times, mainly to discuss military affairs with his mentor Tony Leung Ka Fai, and went to Camel Cliff Village three times to allow Tony Leung Ka Fai to travel and clear the way, so now Tony Leung Ka Fai's old graves are "deacons". According to Dengfeng County Records, Qianlong swam to Zhongyue only once, that is, for fifteen years, which coincided with Tony Leung Ka Fai's lecture at Songyang Academy. As for the five-patrol camel cliff, it reflects the reverence for the ancestor who once made a name for himself and compiled Liang's genealogy. Word of mouth has no basis in history, and there is nothing wrong with it. After Liang's 13th birthday, martial arts became very famous. Now the inheritance pedigree that the martial artists in Luotuoya Village can recall also started from the 14th. The first generation of martial artists in Luotuoya Village are Liang Wenxiu, Liang Guangyao, Liang, Liang Jiangbang, Liang Camel and Liang Yuan. When Liang Wenxiu rebelled, eight people went to the county government with him to rob the prison. It is said that Liang Wenxiu's flying skill is good, and Liang Yuan's ass-butting skill is good and her strength is amazing. He is called "Die Hard Yuan". Camel Cliff people are still saying that "Jiangbang is not camel, so you can't put Liangyuan in the crib". The second generation of martial artists include Liang Pai, Liang, Liang Student, Liang and Liang Mingyu. They are all martial arts masters, and they are also a generation of grandmasters who really carry forward the traditional martial arts of Camel Cliff. Liang is both civil and military, and Liang School, Liang students and Liang are all famous. Liang sent an escort agency because Zheng Zhao, the magistrate of An County, was sponsored by Zheng Zhao. It is said that Emperor Guangxu once made him a captain of the Four Swords, but Liang Pai did not go to his post. When the Liang school set up an escort agency, there was a saying that "Hanping Road is in the south and the school is in the north". Cangzhou, Hebei Province was once as prosperous as Dengfeng, and there was a saying that "Cangzhou doesn't shout darts" and "flying darts doesn't shout Cang", but Liang Pai was always treated with great courtesy when passing through Cangzhou.

Five, camel cliff martial arts story Liang Wenxiu uprising camel cliff village martial artists, there are several Liang Wenxiu is the most famous, his martial arts is superior, love and hate are clear, dare to rush and dare to do it, in the Qing Dynasty, he led a rebellion, a great reputation. They all went to Dengfeng county to record. During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a great drought in western Henan, especially in Dengfeng, Ruzhou and Gongxian, and many people were prepared to go out and beg. Dengfeng county magistrate, regardless of the lives of the people, still sent officials to the countryside to urge food and money. Most people ate their last meal, but they didn't get the next one. Wherever there is food to be delivered, the leaders beat and bully the people at will. On one occasion, the courtiers went to Camel Cliff Village, and people encouraged the bold artist Liang Wenxiu to talk to the courtiers to see if they could reduce or exempt them. So Liang Wenxiu stood up and spoke out bravely, but the chief said, "What kind of food are you? If you go to the county grandfather, you should be beaten fifty times, not forty-nine. " Liang Wen was weak, but he went to the Dengfeng county government to explain the situation and asked his grandfather to stop urging food. Who knows Zhou county magistrate listened to the report of the officers, but didn't listen to him at all, so he told him to beat him forty times. Back at Camel Cliff, Liang Wenxiu became more and more timid, thinking: You dog officer, you can't let the people live, and you can't get down. So, they secretly contacted and prepared to kill the county magistrate and export gas for the people. On the night of August 15th, 12th year of Daoguang, Liang Wenxiu arranged for eight people, including Liang Jiangbang and Liang Camel, to go to Dengfeng. Each of them took a white wax pole and a green knife. Liang Wenxiu's green knife is two feet seven long, and its back is as thick as a thumb. They entered Dengfeng City through the eyes of the waterway, and then turned into the county government with the help of the white wax pole. A murder happened in Angelababy, and the county magistrate went to the scene for an autopsy, not in the county government. They went to the detention center first, and then touched the county magistrate's house. The magistrate's wife had already heard the noise and escaped with a pillow. Liang Wenxiu grabbed the son and daughter of the county magistrate and tore them in half, then returned to Camel Cliff to prepare for rebellion. The poor in the nearby village heard that Liang Wenxiu had rebelled. Before dawn, more than 65,438+000 people went to Luotuoya Village to rebel with Liang Wenxiu. So, Liang Wenxiu immediately took his mother and people to Dahong Village at the junction of Dengfeng, Linru and Yuxian counties. When we arrived at Dahongzhai, there were more than 1000 volunteers. The magistrate saw Liang Wenxiu's rebellion and went to Luoyang to invite soldiers to suppress it. Liang Wenxiu sent an ambush at Xuanyuanguan, killed more than half of the Qing soldiers, and the rest fled back to Luoyang with their tails between their legs. Luoyang magistrate saw something bad and reported it to the court. The court sent tens of thousands of people to Dengfeng to try to destroy Liang Wenxiu. At this time, Liang Wenxiu's troops had grown to four or five thousand. He often went down the mountain to attack the government and the evil gentry and distributed all the seized food to the poor. After the loyalist arrived, Liang Wenxiu led the rebels to fight loyalists in Baiping River. Liang Wenxiu's mother also knows a little about astronomy and geography, and often gets cold feet, and the loyalist army is defeated three times and five times. When the loyalist commander saw that Liang Wenxiu couldn't beat him, he surrounded Dahongzhai in an attempt to trap the rebels. From time to time, loyalists bombarded the stronghold with Jiwa. After all, outnumbered, the rebels also lost a lot because of lack of food and grass support. Two months later, when Liang Wenxiu's mother was watching the war, it happened that the Qing army was shooting at the mountain again, and Liang's mother was unfortunately killed by a gun. Wen is a great dutiful son. After burying his mother, he said sadly, I was disloyal and an enemy of the court, and my mother died unfilial. I have no face to live in this world, so I'm going to pull out my sword and commit suicide. At this time, his men, especially the people in Luotuoya village, dissuaded him and said, "What shall we do if you die? You can't leave your brothers! " On hearing this, Liang Wenxiu, who is usually honest, said to his brothers, "This hut can't be kept sooner or later. Why don't we all go home to support our parents, wives and children! " So, he asked the rebels to make many small lanterns, and all the trees on the mountain were covered. The loyalist saw the bright lights on the mountain and dared not attack easily. When the rebels went down the mountain at night, people in Gongxian, Linru and Yuxian all went home. People in Dengfeng couldn't go home, and it would be beheaded if they were caught by the government. Liang Wenxiu led these people to kill the officers and men who chased them, and went all the way west, fighting and walking. Every few tens of miles, he gave some travelling expenses to his brothers who wanted to go home and slowly got rid of the loyalist. Finally, he went all the way to Huxian County, Shaanxi Province, where he settled anonymously. Ten years later, Liang Wenxiu bribed the government and returned to his hometown. In his later years, he told his descendants many times that Liang Jia's martial arts must never be lost. He should practice boxing to keep fit and defend his country, but he must never make trouble or bully his neighbors.
