Speaking of Wensheng Boxing, as one of the descendants of this kind of boxing, Wang, secretary general of Jining Wushu Association, told reporters that Wensheng Boxing can be traced back to the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. It is said that its founder was Liu Fengtian, a descendant of Li Yuanba, the fourth son of Tang Gaozu Li Yuan, who was quite famous in the Jianghu at that time. According to Wang's textual research, he is proficient in traditional cultures such as Yin and Yang, Tai Chi and Eight Diagrams. , from an early age to study the divine power handed down from the family. Later, through the guidance of experts, I diligently cultivated my internal skills, and my kung fu was mainly internal skills, and I also played 108.
At that time, in addition to practicing internal skills, Liu Fengtian also accepted eight apprentices, among whom Gao Yunlong (also known as Gao Yunlong, meaning "it is difficult to recover from national subjugation") had the highest understanding of kung fu. "This Gao Yunlong is very interesting. According to legend, after he was Zhao Kuangyin, Song Taizu, his ancestors inherited the thirty-two styles of Taizu Changquan, Liuhe Daqian and Yuebuqi Gun. " Wang told reporters that compared with the master, his martial arts were mostly based on foreign skills, so later, his master and apprentice combined internal skills and external skills to create a set of "Yin-Yang five lines of gossip Internal Skills Boxing". "The two masters are very interesting. One is after the royal family in the Tang Dynasty, the other is after the royal family in the Song Dynasty, and the other is mainly to cultivate internal strength.
Later, this kind of boxing spread quietly among Han people in Hebei, Henan, Zhili, Shanxi and Shandong. "At that time, because it involved some anti-Qing church organizations, this boxing has never been named," Wang said. Later, Gao Yunlong's descendants came to Liaocheng to live in order to avoid the pursuit of the Qing government, and this boxing spread in southwest Shandong. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, this boxing was practiced by Du of Jiaxiang and Song Longkang of Wenshang, and it has been passed down to this day. Because people who practice this kind of boxing live longer, this set of boxing has been called "Dujia Boxing" and "Longevity Boxing". "Later, Song Longkang's son Song and his grandson Song Ruyi, my grandmaster and master, were officially named Wen Shengquan." In the study of Wensheng Boxing, Wensheng Boxing is divided into two types, one is routine and the other is internal skill. In Wensheng Boxing, Wensheng's internal strength occupies a very high position, which is equivalent to the foundation, which is deeply touched by Wang.
In the summer of 1979, the young Wang Jingren was introduced, worshipped by Song Ruyi and became his registered disciple. "At that time, after getting started, I followed the teacher and several brothers to practice Wensheng Boxing." But to Wang's surprise, for several months, he and his brothers have been "forging horse stance" or practicing a few monotonous movements. There was no sword and shadow, and no "Jianghu people" came to ask for advice, which made Wang feel very uncomfortable: "At that time, I was young and felt that practicing literature won. Wang did not adapt to this boring and monotonous training mode, and even once had the idea of leaving. " Then one day, I saw the master washing his face there, and I had an idea. "Wang quietly walked behind the master Song Ruyi. While the master was unprepared, suddenly his right hand punched the master in the back. He thought this sneak attack was enough to shake the master. Who knows that this punch just touched the back of the master, and a seemingly soft but overbearing force suddenly counterattacked. Wang Anlin stepped back and fell to the ground, but the master did not move. "From then on, I understand that if you want to learn Wen Sheng Quan, you must lay a good foundation, so I will honestly practice routines every day. At the same time, Wang also began to read some books related to China traditional culture under the guidance of his master, and began to learn the Book of Changes, Huangdi Neijing and acupoint maps. I learned and found that these things are different from many methods in Wensheng Boxing. This kind of thing is abstract and difficult to explain, but the internal strength in Wensheng Boxing does exist and has the function of keeping in good health. "Wang told reporters that in historical materials, there are indeed some records of the longevity of Wensheng Boxing practitioners." Take my grandmaster Song Pingchuan as an example. 1986 also participated in the national Wushu observation and exchange meeting and won a gold medal. He was 94 years old at that time, and he lived 104 years old. Not only did two thirds of his hair turn black again, but he also grew new teeth. You know that my granddaddy's generation suffered from war and hunger and lived for so long. Compared with Wensheng's internal skill, Wensheng Boxing's sparring routine is another style.
Zhang Jinping is the coach of Wen Sheng Martial Arts Museum in Jining. As one of Wang's disciples, he has been devoted to the sparring and actual combat of Wensheng Boxing for many years and accumulated rich experience. He told reporters that Wensheng Boxing is characterized by strong overall aggression. "It was very fierce and overbearing when shooting." Zhang Jinping said that although it seems that the speed of practicing Wensheng Boxing alone is not fast, once it is against people, the power generated is very fierce and overbearing.
Zhang Jinping has been practicing martial arts since childhood, and he is very obsessed with martial arts. He once bought many books about capture fighting, hoping to learn some kung fu from them. "At that time, I not only bought books, but also saw others practicing martial arts. I also wanted to go up and make gestures with them." One morning in 2004, I met Wang while practicing kung fu in the park. "At that time, it seemed that this person was slow in practicing martial arts, but he knew it was fierce when he fought. At that time, the teacher didn't hit me hard, but after a few simple times, I felt the strength of the other party. " When practicing Wensheng Boxing with another disciple of Wang, he said. The reporter observed that one of the characteristics of Wensheng Boxing is that it is mainly slippery, with fast attack speed and sufficient strength.
Another feature of Wensheng Boxing is that there are few difficult movements, and there are no violent movements such as jumping and flying. "In fact, Wensheng Boxing is still relatively primitive. Outsiders may feel bland, but there is a very powerful lethality inside." Liu Yong told reporters. From 65438 to 0996, Wang began to shoulder the heavy responsibility of inheriting Wensheng Boxing. "Seriously, I think Wensheng Boxing, as a traditional kung fu of China, should continue to be passed down." Wang began to try to popularize this kind of kung fu at home and abroad. The initial implementation in China caused a good response. CCTV, Shandong Satellite TV and other TV stations have successively launched feature films related to Wenshengquan, but Wang is not satisfied with these achievements. He set his sights on the other side of the distant ocean.
At first, Wang's promotion was not smooth. After all, as a native of Jining, he doesn't have enough resources. "Later, there were more Japanese-funded enterprises and Sino-Japanese joint ventures in Jining, and my friends introduced me to some Japanese bosses and representatives. They organize some Japanese children to study Kung Fu here every year. " At the same time, Wang's disciples began to make their mark in major domestic competitions and won the championship many times. "Now the information is very developed, and there are more foreigners coming to Jining to learn kung fu, and Wensheng Boxing is gradually becoming popular." Wang told reporters. The more famous Wen Shengquan is, the more concerned he is, and many foreign experts come here. However, what makes Wang a headache comes from this. Many foreigners who come to study are often not "convinced" of Wensheng Boxing. "Foreigners are more practical and don't know much about Wensheng Boxing. They think that only by fighting boxing can we really work hard. " It is precisely because of this that Wang and several of his disciples often have to compete with foreign disciples who come to study in order to persuade them to learn from their teachers. One day in September 2007, an English student came to King Wushu School in Jining with a letter of recommendation from the Chinese Wushu Association. This young Englishman is called Ryan, and he is only 19 years old. Because he loved martial arts since he was a child and had a good talent, he was guided by many foreign experts. Now I come to Jining to learn Wensheng Boxing from Wang.
Ryan grew up in a martial arts family. His great-grandfather, grandfather and father were all British karate champions. Especially, Ryan's father Emmon Marchini is not only a black belt in British karate, but also won the European Karate Competition twice. His father's achievements and honors in karate learning also made Ryan love fighting, especially the mysterious China Kung Fu, which fascinated him.
Soon, Ryan worshipped Wang and began to learn Wensheng Boxing. "About a year later, Ryan's father, Emmon, came to see him from England." Wang told reporters that he didn't expect this visit to become a duel between karate and Wenshengquan.
At this time, although Emmon has retired, his kung fu has not been put down. When he came to Wang's martial arts school, the first thing he did was to ask to watch the Wensheng Boxing practiced by Wang and his son. "After we practiced, it was natural for Emmon to evaluate it." Wang said that at that time, Emmon didn't seem very interested in his son's kung fu. He said rudely to Wang, "Your kung fu is great, but I think my kung fu is better." Say that finish, Emmon casually found a few bricks and chopped them down easily.
Since both sides think that they are good at kung fu, it is inevitable to prove it, but Wang has scruples: "How to put it, people are international friends, and it is not good for anyone to get hurt too much." So Wang tried to control his power during the first world war with Emmon. "His karate skills are really good, and his strength is also very strong. He is tall and has a long arm span. I will attack him close to restrain him." After several fights, Emmon was knocked down by the king one after another, but it was difficult for Emmon to hit the king.
"After the first day, Emmon was still unconvinced, but he couldn't get out of bed the next day. Later, I simply stayed in Jining to learn Wensheng Boxing with my son. " Wang told reporters that there are too many things like this, because many international students have to compete with their masters when they arrive in Jining.
