Chapter 108 The Horse Stumbles "what?" Qiangzi turned around and looked at the Lama in confusion, and found that the other party was not looking at him, but looking at the eaves of the house. Only then did he realize that there must be someone else there. "I'm sorry for coming here uninvited. Du Ruo greets the Master." Du Ruo walked down from the eaves, touching the ground with his toes, and only slightly bent his knees without making much noise. After landing, Du Ruo bowed to the Lama. He believed in nature and respected the heaven and earth, but he also respected other people's beliefs. At first, he came mainly to see what Qiangzi was doing early in the morning, and if he encountered any difficulties, he could help. However, when he saw that the other party had come to the temple, he was no longer worried. After all, he was an old lama who had been in the local area for decades. No matter what Qiangzi did, he would not be harmed. "Boss Du? Why are you here?" Qiangzi's face was full of surprise. He really didn't expect that Boss Du would appear here. "You are not the only one who can come. I saw Master yesterday and wanted to come and have a chat with him." Du Ruo replied to Qiangzi.
"Well, please, my friend. I'm going to prepare Tibetan tea now. If you have time, you can have a cup before leaving." The lama discovered that Du Ruo and Qiangzi knew each other. At first, he was worried that Du Ruo was an uninvited guest, so he revealed Du Ruo's identity before Qiangzi left, to prevent Du Ruo from attacking the innocent Qiangzi. Now that he knew that the two knew each other, he no longer had this concern. Of course, he could not treat Du Ruo the same way he treated Qiangzi. Nowadays, being able to practice to this level at Du Ruo's age is a sign of natural talent, and there is nothing wrong in treating him as an equal. "No, we originally came to see the Pegasus Festival today. If we delay any further, Qiangzi might not be able to make it to the opening ceremony. We'll come visit you another day." Du Ruo clasped his fists. He was not a brave and aggressive person. The Lama would not run away from here, and it would be the same if he came again another day. "Ah! By the way, it's Pegasus Festival, Master, I want to go. If I don't go, my dad will have to take over. Boss Du, let's go quickly." Qiangzi realized it later and bowed to the Lama, then hurriedly trotted out. He was still worried about his father going to the Tianma Festival performance. Although his father was more experienced than him, he was already old. If he got injured, it would be difficult for him to recover. The lama did not stay long and sent the two men out the door. "Boss Du, where's your horse?" Qiangzi got on the horse, then looked around and didn't see any other horses, so he asked Du Ruo. "I just arrived yesterday and didn't have time to ride a horse. Okay, you can go to the event directly now. I'll take Yuanyuan and the others to watch the opening ceremony later." Du Ruo curled her lips and said unhappily that she had originally wanted to ride the horse in the morning to get familiar with it, but she didn't expect to be delayed like this. Now she has no time, because this is the only horse left in Qiangzi's family ranch, and the other horses have gone to attend the opening ceremony. "Hey, I'm leaving now. The car keys are on the coffee table in the living room. Boss Du, drive yourself. I'll send you the best viewing position later." Qiangzi scratched his head awkwardly and smiled. He was indeed easily excited. After saying that, Qiangzi rode away on his horse and rode straight towards the town. "He's a good talent, and he has a rare innocent heart. Why didn't you think of taking him in as a disciple?" The lama watched Qiangzi ride away on his horse and sighed. "He is too hot-blooded. It is not necessarily a good thing for him to have martial arts at such an impulsive age. Besides, doesn't the master plan to teach him anything?" Du Ruo shook his head. What the Lama and Qiangzi said just now was definitely correct. The Lama talked about the "Turning Palm Iron Crotch Kung Fu" very seriously and with good reasons and evidence, it was definitely not made up. But this did not mean that the Lama only knew this. It is no exaggeration to say that Tibetan martial arts are profound and extensive, and there is a complete inheritance from low-level punches and kicks to the highest-level internal power techniques. Not all kung fu requires strict skills.
So the lama just doesn’t want to teach, it’s not that there is nothing to teach. Only someone with a straightforward personality like Qiangzi would believe whatever he hears. "Haha, Tibetan martial arts are still Buddhist martial arts after all. Many moves require a corresponding state of mind." The Lama also gave an explanation. "Okay, goodbye. I'll come visit you another day." Du Ruo nodded, then ran towards the pasture area. He agreed with what the Lama had just said. In fact, Buddhist martial arts pursue efficiency and directness more, without so many fancy things, so the moves seem more vicious. If you don't have a good state of mind, it is really easy to hurt people. For example, Xinyi Ba is actually a secret Buddhist kung fu. Apart from practicing, it actually has only two moves: hammering and smashing, which are simple and crude. Tai Chi is cunning, Bagua is slippery, but the most poisonous thing is the mind. Although this is talking about a fighting style, there is a reason why it has been passed down for so long. Back at the ranch, Xiang Yuanyuan and Li Qiyao had already gotten up and washed. They slept well yesterday. The environment here was better than in the village. Besides, it was a pastoral area, so there was no noise at all, only the chirping of insects. The temperature was also just right. Even Xiang Yuanyuan looked much better. Du Ruo told them that Qiangzi had left first to prepare in advance, and the two were not surprised. The three of them ate something, and then Du Ruo drove the two of them to the best viewing point that Qiangzi had sent them. Qiangzi also said that the three of them didn't need to prepare anything, he had a brother there, and the three of them just had to go. Zhaosu has been vigorously developing tourism in recent years, hoping to replace animal husbandry with tourism. After all, there are a large number of natural landscapes here. So although this place is not big, the construction and planning in all aspects are actually very good. You can even see many campers and real estate along the way. The place Qiangzi introduced was a grassland along the river. Of course, cars could not drive onto the grassland. When Du Ruo arrived, he found that many people had already set up tents or marquees by the river and were waiting. "Hey~ friends, you are Qiangzi's guests!" As soon as Du Ruo and the other two reached the river bank, a young man in Tibetan clothes came up and started to greet them. It was obvious that this was a place frequented by local people, as the man who greeted them had a very obvious local accent. "Yes, Qiangzi asked us to come." Du Ruo nodded. The Tibetan young man and his group had set up a large tent. In addition to the Tibetan young man, there were many other people here, including girls wearing Tibetan costumes, and foreign tourists like Du Ruo and his group. "Qiangzi's friends are our friends, let's come together, let's come together~" The Tibetan guy was very enthusiastic. He invited Du Ruo and the other two to sit over with him. He also brought out various kumis, liquor and local specialties, and then they started chatting about all sorts of things under the sun. The most excited person was of course Xiang Yuanyuan. She couldn't take her eyes off the wine on the table and swallowed her saliva in big gulps. If Li Qiyao hadn't held her tightly, she would have gulped down the wine. "You guys chat, Qiqi and I will go out for a walk." Xiang Yuanyuan seemed to have reacted, and she came to Du Ruo and whispered something, then took a piece of beef jerky from the table, pulled Li Qiyao and ran to the side. "It seems that he is still somewhat rational. He should be able to control his alcohol addiction in a few days. But if he drinks, he needs to go to the hospital for a check-up." Du Ruo watched Xiang Yuanyuan leave, thinking about the liver damage. He definitely couldn't drink alcohol during the treatment stage, but after the treatment was completed or basic functions were restored, he could still drink alcohol, but he couldn't get drunk or drink excessively. Presumably, there would be no need to watch over him like this at that time. "Come on, Brother Du, I want to drink." Tibetan guys are very enthusiastic. Even strangers can sing and dance when they get together. What's more, Du Ruo is Qiangzi's guest, so the white wine glass was full after not much chatting. "Okay, let's do it~" Du Ruo was not polite either. He came out to have fun, so of course he wanted to have fun. Besides, this little bit of wine had no effect on him. Raising his glass, Du Ruo finished the bowl of white wine in one gulp. This is a kind of white wine called "Shoerbulak", which is refreshing, sweet and very easy to drink. Du Ruo enjoyed drinking it anyway.
Time passed quickly while I was drinking and listening to the local guys singing Tibetan songs. "Ok?" Du Ruo's five senses are particularly sharp. Sitting on the grass with a mat, Du Ruo can feel the slight vibration of the ground. Du Ruo immediately reacts and realizes that this is a sign that the galloping of thousands of horses has begun. "Yuanyuan, Ah Qi, come back quickly, it's time to start, the horses are coming." Du Ruo put down his wine glass, stood up, and saw the two women and several Tibetan girls playing in the water by the river, and shouted quickly. "it is good!" Xiang Yuanyuan and Li Qiyao trusted Du Ruo unconditionally. As soon as Du Ruo said that, they hurried over, stood beside Du Ruo, and then stood on tiptoe to look into the distance. The first thing you see is dust flying. You can see the dust from a long distance away. That area is not a grassland, so there is dust flying. Soon after, they could clearly feel the vibration, the dense sound of horse hooves, and the neighing of many horses. Then, Du Ruo and the others could see a horse leading a herd of horses running towards them. “Boom boom boom boom!!” Thousands of horses are galloping, the dense sound of horse hooves is deafening, and they are running towards us with an unparalleled posture. The shocking scene really cannot be described in words. "Now I understand why Genghis Khan was invincible." Xiang Yuanyuan leaned close to Du Ruo's ear and shouted loudly. At this time, all she could hear was the sound of horse hooves. Only Du Ruo had good hearing and could hear what Xiang Yuanyuan was saying. “Wow~~” The horses rushed into the river in front of Du Ruo and the others, splashing water everywhere, but the horses' momentum was not diminished at all. Moreover, the flushing of the river water made the horses' bodies more shiny. Without the dust, they could appreciate the horses' posture and lines more clearly. Du Ruo was watching intently, his eyes fixed on the leading horse. It was a very handsome black horse, obviously taller than the other horses, with very clear muscle lines. Du Ruo looked at the leading horse, feeling the changes in its muscle lines. Du Ruo has very good eyesight, especially when he is highly concentrated. Looking at the leading horse's every step, Du Ruo can see subtle changes in the muscles, which are caused by the flow of strength. Almost subconsciously, Du Ruo tensed his toes, and a trace of strength rose from under his feet. His leg muscles squirmed and the strength went upward. At that moment, the muscles of Du Ruo and the head horse seemed to be in sync. "Tread~~" The leading horse stepped its front hooves into the water, making a crisp sound. At the same time, Du Ruo clenched his fists and also "stepped" forward. "Bang~" Du Ruo's fists seemed to hit a solid wall of air. A burst of force was generated and his fists actually created a breeze that bent the green grass on the lawn. "As expected, I still need to walk around more when I first arrive. The maximum level of Xingyiquan represents the maximum level of boxing, not the maximum level of Xingyi. There is still a long way to go in the future, and I can't let my skills limit me." Du Ruo was delighted. Only Xiang Yuanyuan and Li Qiyao who were next to him saw the scene just now. The others were still immersed in the shock of thousands of horses galloping, and their ears were filled with rumbling sounds, so they had no time to observe others. Du Ruo just observed the posture and muscle dynamics of the head horse, and subconsciously used the same muscle movements plus his own understanding of Xingyiquan Maxingquan to deliver that punch. This made Du Ruo's horse-shaped punch more than 60% more powerful than before. The shock of watching thousands of horses galloping live is really incomparable. Standing in front of hundreds of thousands of running horses, an individual seems very small. The sound of horse hooves hitting the ground makes the sky and the earth change color, and the heartbeat seems to increase unconsciously. Just as Du Ruo and others were immersed in the shock of thousands of horses galloping, some ranch owners were also riding horses among the 100,000 horses. They needed to grasp the general direction of the herd to avoid accidents.
In fact, what Du Ruo and the others just saw was not the entire herd of horses. After all, when the number of horses reaches a certain number, there seems to be not much difference between ten thousand and one hundred thousand horses. In fact, when these horses were running in other places, there were only about 10,000 horses. In order to reduce the possibility of accidents, the organizers dispersed these 100,000 horses to perform throughout the racecourse, and they only gathered together again where Du Ruo and others were watching. At the edge of the grassland, Qiangzi and several other young herdsmen did not run with the herd of horses. Instead, they led the horses along the edge of the grassland and followed a large group of stars to take photos. These stars were invited by the local area for publicity purposes. Of course, it is impossible for them to follow the herd of horses. There is a certain degree of danger in there. Even experienced herdsmen dare not guarantee their safety, let alone these stars who have just learned to ride horses. When all the horses start running, these stars just follow behind and take some photos, while people like Qiangzi are responsible for maintaining the herd and protecting these stars. "what!!" Everything was going smoothly, and when the shoot was about to end, the mare that a star was riding stepped on a stone with its front hoof, perhaps because of nervousness. The hoof softened, and the star accidentally fell off the horse. When Qiangzi and his companions saw this, they hurried forward, one of them held the horse, and another helped up the star who had fallen to the ground. "I didn't stand firmly when I landed, and I sprained my ankle." As a martial arts superstar, Wu Jing could tell this kind of injury at a glance. "There's an ambulance nearby, send him to the hospital first." The director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau ran over immediately. Fortunately, this was not the first time such an event was held, and various emergency measures were in place. He immediately arranged for someone to call an ambulance, and then arranged for Qiangzi and others to carry the star to the hospital. (End of this chapter)
