When Ah Zhi rushed to the Flying Mantis 'nest, he was so angry that he almost trembled. He had just reminded it not to sleep and to wait for him to come back. He did not expect it to fall asleep. Ah Zhi smiled helplessly and shook his head. He quietly sat beside it and waited for it to wake up. The child had to wait until it had enough sleep. Otherwise, it would affect its growth and development. Ah Zhi paid a lot of attention to the newborn Pokémon babies and did his best to nurture them. They were like level 0 babies in online games. All attributes and development direction were controlled by you. Wild mature pet elves were like pets in online games with a certain level. Their development potential was much smaller. Moreover, there was no such thing as Golden Willow Dew in this world. Therefore, newborn pet elves became especially precious.
The bored Ah Zhi even went to a place far away to test his wrist strength. Although Ah Zhi's physical strength was stronger than his wrist strength and his physical fitness was not inferior, his comprehension and technique were much worse. Therefore, out of the 10 matches, Ah Zhi lost nine. The last match was won by not giving Wrist Force dinner. No matter what, it was not a complete defeat. In fact, cheating was also one of the ways to improve their relationship. For a partner who joined midway, this was undoubtedly a sign of their master's approval, which would speed up their pace of integration into the team.
Mantis Fist was mainly spread throughout Shandong. The main schools were Tai Chi, Seven Stars, Plum Blossom, and Six Directions.
Mantis Fist was further divided into the Northern Mantis and Southern Mantis.
The northern school of mantids was said to have been created by Wang Lang, a native of Jimo County, Shandong Province, in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. After his failure in the kung fu competition, he saw the dexterity and intensity of the mantis stalking the cicada. Inspired, he captured the mantis and observed its fighting techniques with its two forearms. From then on, he created many martial arts techniques such as hook, hug, pick, hang, diao, wrap, split, and slide, which became the unique northern style of Mantis Fist.
The Southern School of Mantis was also known as the Zhou Family Mantis Fist. It was said that it was founded by Zhou Yanan, a Cantonese in the Qing Dynasty. Its techniques and theories were completely different from the Northern School of Mantis that was passed down from Shandong, but it was very similar to the techniques of the various schools of Southern Boxing. Other than the Northern and Southern Mantis Boxing, there were also Long-Arm Mantis Boxing, Wrestling Mantis Boxing, Light-Plate Mantis Boxing, Eight-Step Mantis Boxing, etc., which were based on the Northern Mantis Boxing and had been passed down for many years or mixed with other boxing techniques.
Although there were many schools of Mantis Fist, they all emphasized: It was important to grasp the meaning of the image, and it was both hard and soft, strong and extremely soft, with flexibility everywhere. It had both length and length, alternating between top and bottom, connecting inside and outside, maintaining a complete posture everywhere. The techniques, footwork, leg techniques, and body techniques were closely linked and ingenious, stable and flexible. They sought speed in life, stability in speed, and refinement in stability. Mantis Fist also emphasized lowering the shoulders, lowering the elbows, moving the wrists, twisting the waist, sitting on the hips, and bending the knees. There were proverb in boxing,"Waist to see off guests, hip to sit in the marshal's mansion" and "Move by legs and feet, strength stored in the crotch waist, wind and rain with two arms shake". Its movements required fast eyes, fast hands, fast steps, fast body, and fast movements. One move could be changed into three moves, long and short, imposing and unpredictable. When exerting force, it should be fast and sudden, with a combination of tightness and elasticity. It should be firm but not stiff, soft but not soft, crisp but not short, fast but not hairy.
Although Ah Zhi did not know Mantis Fist and had never seen any videos of it, as the name suggested, Mantis Fist was a fist technique that evolved from imitating the attacks of mantises.
Ah Zhi realized that he still couldn't change his reckless personality. He didn't even know Mantis Fist, so how could he teach Flying Mantis? At this moment, a "fool"(at least in Ah Zhi's eyes at this moment) walked over while shaking his head. It was wrist strength, this martial arts genius! Ah Zhi could not contain his joy. He quickly grabbed Wrist's hand, afraid that he would slip away. Having such a magical treasure was like having a moving treasure house of martial arts!
He pulled the clueless man out of the dojo and began to search for mantids in the nearby grass. There were still a lot of bushes left near the dojo. They were mainly used as a temporary resting place for traveling trainers. At the same time, they could also be used as warm-up exercises for the elves who wanted to challenge the dojo. In the town, it was unlikely to have wild elves, but there were still small animals, especially in the Pokemon World. The green environment in the Pokémon world was a mess. In his previous life, factories were everywhere, and high-rise buildings covered the sky. Living in a noisy city, one could only see eagles soaring in the sky, fish soaring in the shallow water, and all kinds of frost fighting for freedom in the world. In this world, similar scenes could be seen almost everywhere.
The mantis, also known as the mantis, was a medium-sized insect with a triangular head that could move freely. Its compound eyes were large and bright. Its antennae were long and thin, and its neck could turn freely. The forefoot's calf and shin joints had spines. The shin joints were shaped like a scythe and often folded toward the calf joints to form the forefoot that could catch prey. The skin of the front wings is the covering of the wings, lacking the front edge, the rear wings are membrane, the buttocks are developed, fan-shaped, folded on the back when resting; His abdomen was plump. Mantises liked to move around in leafy grasslands or plants because their food, aphids, were often found there. In this season, there were many mantids, but it was more difficult to find the mantids that were hunting. If the sound was too loud, it might alert the mantids and scare them away. Therefore, it was not easy to find the mantids that he liked. The green bamboo-like body color allowed the praying mantis to walk in the grass without being discovered, especially when it stopped, it blended into the surrounding environment. Without careful observation, it would not be discovered.
Under these arduous conditions, Ah Zhi began his journey of stealing his master's wrist strength…
------------------------------------------------------
After spending nearly three hours, Ah Zhi was really exhausted. No, I found it. However, those who could run away had already run away, and those who couldn't were caught by the wrist force. He had asked them to demonstrate how to hunt, but they would rather die than submit. In a fit of anger, the wrist force slapped them to death…Ah Zhi felt that the one who fell from the clouds was a Bobo. That's right, it was Bobo! Thinking back, Ah Zhi's face was filled with tears. At that time, Ah Zhi was sitting under a big tree to rest, but he was surprised to see a praying mantis waving its sickle-shaped front legs in an attempt to catch a jumping locust. Just as he was about to let the wrist strength beside him secretly learn it, a bloated Bobo appeared. Its sharp beak nailed the mantis to the ground. Could this be the legendary "mantis hunting locusts, behind the waves"?
With great resentment, Ah Zhi had no choice but to give up his rest time. Today, he had to let his wrist learn Mantis Fist and then teach it to the Flying Mantis. This could not be delayed for even a moment. Looking back in the direction Bobo had left, Ah Zhi glared at him with hatred. Satisfied, he turned around and left.
Hard work paid off. Ah Zhi finally found a few mantises that were hunting. Their attacks were swift and sharp, and their targets were often subdued before they could react. The process of secretly learning was also unusually smooth. However, it seemed that they had become acquainted with the Tyrant Carp Dragon without fighting. The two little elves had become too close. Now, Wrist's brain was also filled with a strong desire to attack. He wanted to fight with them, but the result was not to be mentioned.
However, the Mantis Fist that was used with wrist strength always made Ah Zhi feel awkward. Later on, he realized the reason. The Mantis Fist of Chinese martial arts had also evolved through generations or even decades of inheritance, making the moves more in line with people's habits. It also looked more powerful and beautiful. Naturally, it was different from the beginner wrist strength. Besides, wrist strength was not like a mantis, so it was not surprising that it was awkward.
When they returned to the dojo, the flying mantis had already opened its sleepy eyes. It was only 1.2 meters tall (average 1.5 meters) and was looking at the strange place in front of it in surprise.(The flying mantis had fallen asleep as soon as it was released and had no time to observe the surrounding situation.) Noticing that its master had returned, it flapped its thin wings and flew towards Ah Zhi. Ah Zhi hugged it affectionately."Flying Mantis, Wrist wants to teach you something!”
The Flying Mantis turned its head and looked at the wrist strength in confusion. What could this muscular guy teach me? Could it be that he wanted to teach me muscle training?
Seeing Ah Zhi nod his head, Wrist began to use the simple Mantis Fist that he had learned in the afternoon. The Flying Mantis, who was watching the wrist movements, could not help but be attracted. Ah Zhi noticed that the Flying Mantis's eyes gradually became spirited. Suddenly, the Flying Mantis broke away from Ah Zhi's embrace and began to dance in the open space, imitating the movements of the wrist. That's right, the Mantis Fist that was released from the Flying Mantis's hands had an additional sharpness and valor, and it was filled with killing intent. Ah Zhi wanted to stimulate the inherited memories hidden in the Flying Mantis 'heart, so that it could comprehend the skills that belonged to it as soon as possible. It should be known that in the later stages of the game, when the strength of the elves was equal, the competition was about the exquisiteness and familiarity of the moves. The difference between being immersed in it from a young age and learning it halfway through was self-evident…
Looking at the figure of the Flying Mantis, Ah Zhi nodded in satisfaction. The special training was far from over.
P.S.
Once again…
