In fact, Qi Jiguang didn't have a complete book of boxing classics. The boxing methods he discussed came from the last chapter of Ji Xiao Shu Xin, which contained a hand-painted Atlas of Thirty-two Potential of Long Boxing, which had a far-reaching impact on the emergence and development of Chen Jiagou and Zhao Bao's boxing methods and Tai Ji Chuan's techniques in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
However, it is worth mentioning that Qi Jiguang said at the beginning of his new book in Ji Xiao that martial arts can't be practiced in actual combat, and the role of Changquan is equivalent to aerobics for beginners.
Let's take a look at the original text of Qi Jiguang Ji Xiaoxin's book:
This art is not very advanced among soldiers. There is spare capacity to learn from, but the public can't listen. So this is the end of the article, fourteen.
Boxing didn't seem to have any skills before the war, but it was the beginner's door to enter this art by moving his hands and getting used to diligent limbs. Therefore, it is stored for a family in the future.
Therefore, the granddaddy of Taiji Chuan should be Qi Jiguang, not Zhang Sanfeng.
