Chapter 73: 【067】Marrow Cleansing Scripture
According to decades of intelligence from the Martial Arts Association, Master Yan Jie had only one Buddha statue, inside which was hidden the Marrow Cleansing Scripture.
However, no one could have imagined that back then, Master Yan Jie hid two Buddha statues in the temple at Jiuchai Village, both containing an Inner Power, the Childlike Skill and Marrow Cleansing Scripture from the four Shaolin miracles.
The large monk devoutly opened the Marrow Cleansing Scripture hidden within the Buddha statue for decades and began to read it attentively.
Wang Longhu, on the other hand, sat beside him reading the training method of the Childlike Skill, completely unconcerned about what outrageous actions the monk might take regarding the Marrow Cleansing Scripture.
Firstly, after spending some time with the monk, Wang Longhu trusted his character.
Secondly, joking aside, both the monk and Hong Wentai combined couldn’t pose a threat to Wang Longhu. Even if they tried to escape with the Marrow Cleansing Scripture, it would be a futile effort in front of Wang Longhu with Lightweight Skill Lv3.
It just so happened that the monk proposed sharing the Marrow Cleansing Scripture among the three, so let him review it first.
Carefully savoring the training method of the Childlike Skill, Wang Longhu deeply felt the fundamental differences between the Childlike Skill and Xingyi Boxing, and other boxing styles, including the Three Body Posture of Pile Skills.
Childlike Skill mainly strengthens the internal and external, hidden but not exposed. Once mastered, a Martial Artist can ’gracefully move like a cat, shake like a tiger, walk like a dragon, act swiftly, sound like thunder.’ It’s not just an Inner Power; it encompasses external power, internal power, and soft power in three Chapters.
External power focuses on basic skills, including horse stance, chair stance, and T-stance, while also practicing movements like seeing, listening, grabbing, pulling, pushing, lifting, and kicking, and pursues the eight essentials of body technique: rise, fall, advance, retreat, reverse, sideways, receive, and extend.
Famous actions include Arhat Sleeping, Child Worships Guanyin, Child Worships Buddha, Sky Kicks, Middle Hidden Flower, Swallow Balance, and so on.
