This Wei Gucheng is very traditional and knows how to post challenges first.
Chen Zheng thought that since he was so retro, he had to be traditional, so he immediately wrote a reply to Wei Gucheng, and then asked Yi Yongheng to forward it to Wei Gucheng on his behalf.
Yi Yongheng is quite well-connected among the Chinese, so this is expected to be a problem for him.
In Chen Zheng¡¯s reply, he also stated that there is no grudge between life and death in a martial arts competition.
Chen Zheng believes that modern martial arts contests can only go as far as this. If an accident occurs during a martial arts contest, the winner will not be able to escape legal punishment, but will only be able to reduce the punishment.
Unexpectedly, the day after receiving the challenge post, Chen Zheng received another legal document in the mail, in two copies, each of which was dozens of pages long, in Chinese and English. Wrote it twice.
Every clause above is a stipulation and appraisal of the content of the battle. If you follow this document, you will not be legally responsible even if you kill the opponent.
Chen Zheng didn¡¯t look at the details, but Jones and Yi Yongheng helped to read them over, which was fair. Chen Zheng, unlike others, signed his name on it.
The name of Wei Gucheng, the other party, had already been signed in advance, and then he left one copy and sent the other copy back.
Only then did Chen Zheng realize that modern life and death also exist, and the modern life and death situation is like this.
Everything is ready. For example, the decisive battle date agreed between Wei Gucheng and Chen Zheng is still several days away.
The reason for this is that Wei Gucheng specially conducted retreat training before the war. Strive to improve your kung fu further and be more confident in dealing with Chen Zheng.
But Chen Zheng seemed much more at ease. Every day during the day, he accompanied Zhou Zhili to play around Los Angeles. And every night, Jones and I practice the Taoist Concierge technique together
It¡¯s not that Chen Zheng doesn¡¯t pay attention to this duel, but he knows that it¡¯s the eve of a big war. The more important it is to have peace of mind and body, to coordinate yin and yang, and to do things like improvising. It is definitely not the work of a Tai Chi master.
Time passed day by day, and during this period, the gunshot wound on Bai Rou's leg gradually healed. Already able to walk on the ground.
Because of her injury, there is indeed a backlog of work. In particular, the various guild halls that were originally scheduled to open across the United States have all been delayed. In any case, the affairs of the guild halls must be settled before everyone leaves the United States.
After a few days of the New Year, Zhou Zhili also said goodbye to Chen Zheng. Go to New York to find cooperative enterprises in Baicao Industry. While Chen Zheng sent Zhou Zhili away, he also won a date for a duel with Wei Gucheng.

In the past few days, Wei Gucheng had been practicing in seclusion, but Han Sheng was not idle. According to the information Yi Yongheng received, it turned out that Han Sheng had publicized this competition, and now everyone in Chinatown knew about it.
Therefore, when Chen Zheng arrived at the agreed place on the day of the competition, the Chinese Plaza, the place was crowded and bustling.
China Plaza is the largest square in Chinatown, Los Angeles. Various Chinese activities are often held here, covering an extremely large area. Chen Zheng looked at the number of people from a distance, and there must be four to five thousand people coming to watch?
Jones, He Jianyi and others opened the way and separated the crowd. Chen Zheng walked all the way in and saw that a ring had already been set up in the center of the square.
This ring is built entirely according to the ancient Chinese style. It is different from the common boxing ring now. It is more than four or five times larger than the boxing ring, making it easier for Chinese Kung Fu to use the agile footwork of tossing and turning.
At the innermost part of the stage, there are two rows of steps, and sitting on the steps are the witnesses of this competition.
That day, at the farewell and welcome dinner that Chen Zheng had met, the president of the All-American Chinese Workers¡¯ Federation was also among them.
As for the other witnesses, Chen Zheng didn¡¯t know them, but Yi Yongheng helped introduce them. It turned out that they were all celebrities in the martial arts world who had settled in the United States.
¡°Besides this, there is the media. Looking around, Chen Zheng saw countless reporters holding cameras and cameras.
Among these reporters, most of them have Chinese faces, but there are also foreign ones. After all, this is a rare martial arts event, and because the movie "Tai Chi" is in theaters and is very popular at the U.S. box office, Americans also want to know more about Chinese Kung Fu. With a deeper understanding, reporters will naturally be happy to report on it.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? by Live Broadcast from TV Stations.
Seeing this formation, the most excited person was Feng Guoan. At this time, he was silently praying in his heart: The Jade Emperor?Guanyin Bodhisattva, Jesus, God, Tathagata, Buddha, and the Virgin Mary, you must bless Chen Zheng to win!
The reason why Feng Guoan is so looking forward to Chen Zheng¡¯s victory is very simple. That¡¯s because if Chen Zheng wins, the box office will only become more popular!
Although the movie "Tai Chi" has been released in the United States for some time, and the release period is about to pass, you must know that there is still Europe, and there will be revenue from DVD rentals after the movie is released. Anyway, as long as the United States has a reputation , are you worried that you can¡¯t make money elsewhere in the world?
"Everyone! Everyone! Please be quiet!"
Seeing that the hour had passed and noon was approaching, at the time agreed upon by Wei Gucheng and Chen Zheng, a host walked into the center of the ring, holding a wireless microphone, and said loudly: "First of all, thank you for coming to the scene and watching. This is the battle of the century.¡±
Then, he began to introduce the players on both sides: "As you all know, the challenger in this duel is Mr. Wei Gucheng, a Chinese American. He studied under the former Natural Sect's 'North and South Hero' Du Xinwu. He has already gained a great reputation in the United States. In the past few years, he has also defeated several American boxing champions who have won gold belts. The challenger in this duel, Mr. Chen Zheng, learned Taoist Tai Chi and even filmed the best-selling movie "Tai Chi" this year. Now, let¡¯s invite two experts to take the stage!¡±
"Wow!" The audience burst into applause.
Listening to the host¡¯s introduction, it seems that Wei Gucheng¡¯s qualifications are higher than Chen Zheng¡¯s.
¡°But it¡¯s also conceivable that Chen Zheng just came to the United States. These people in the United States have never heard of him before, they have only seen the movies he acted in.
¡°But the kung fu in movies is different from the real kung fu. Neither the media nor the public think highly of Chen Zheng.
After seeing the postures of the two people on stage, everyone was more inclined to predict that Wei Gucheng would win.
Because Wei Gucheng was like pulling onions on dry land. He jumped onto the stage about two meters high easily, but Chen Zheng walked up the steps without changing, which was in the hearts of the public. There is no trace of the magnanimity and demeanor of a martial arts master.
And Chen Zheng¡¯s outfit today is indeed a bit old-fashioned, and he actually wore a traditional Chinese gown. The cloth shoes on his feet are exactly the same as his dress in the movie.
Looking at his figure, Wei Gucheng is tall and tall, but Chen Zheng seems to be a little thinner, which is enough reason for not being favored by others.
"Bang", a gong sounded, and the competition officially began.
However, neither of them took action immediately. Instead, they stood about two feet apart on the stage without even posing. A conversation started first.
Wei Gucheng took the lead and cupped his hands, cupping his fists and saying, "Mr. Chen Zheng, from the moment I saw you at the dinner party on New Year's Eve, I knew you were a master. Being able to duel with a master like you is something that I It¡¯s an honor. I will do my best today, and I hope you will do the same.¡±
"Do you really want to risk your life?" Chen Zheng asked.
"That's right." Wei Gucheng nodded approvingly.
"Your kung fu is indeed good. In this era, it is rare in the world. I think you also know the conflict between Han Sheng and me. I just can't figure it out. Why should you be used as a gunman by others?" Chen Zheng asked again: "Do you think it's worth risking your life for someone like Han Sheng and Han Zhongmu?"
Wei Gucheng looked sideways. Wherever he looked, there was a person sitting in the first row under the ring. This person was Han Sheng and Han Zhongmu.
He is not very popular and often bosses around Wei Gucheng. Although he is a young, talented and wealthy Chinese man, in Wei Gucheng's eyes, he is indeed disgusting.
With a sigh, Wei Gucheng turned around and said, "It's not worth it, but there is no other way. I also want to make a living."
Then Wei Gucheng confessed frankly: "In order to strengthen my determination to fight you, he promised me that whether I kill you or you kill me, I will get a reward of five million US dollars. This money, It¡¯s enough for my wife and unborn child to have enough food and clothing, otherwise they would suffer without money.¡±
As a man, you should indeed have the responsibilities of a man.
Chen Zheng secretly admired his opponent in his heart.
In fact, Chen Zheng had already guessed that a master like Wei Gucheng must have his own dignity and pride. If it weren't for necessity, how could he be willing to take orders from someone like Han Sheng and Han Zhongmu? Now it seems that there is indeed a last resort.
"Even if you need money, there is no need to work for people like Han Sheng. How about I give you five million and ask you to work for me?"
Chen Zheng had good intentions, but Wei Gucheng didn't appreciate it and smiled: "Why, you and?Are you saying this to kill my fighting spirit? Although I need money, frankly speaking, I also really hope to compete with a master like you and have a hearty fight. We martial arts practitioners spend our lives seeking to improve our kung fu and find a suitable opponent. It doesn't matter even if we die in a competition. "
This is indeed true, as the old saying goes, if you hear the truth in the morning, you will die in the evening.
Isn¡¯t it true that Chen Zheng is not like this? I'm afraid this is also the reason why masters are lonely.
Originally, he wanted to regain Wei Gucheng for his own use, but it seemed that it was really inappropriate before the duel. That¡¯s all, let¡¯s wait until the comparison is over.
The two people were talking to each other on the stage for a quarter of an hour. The people in the audience didn't know what they were talking about, and they couldn't wait to see them take action.
"Damn it, can you compare?"
"Are you here to compete in martial arts or in zazen?"
"Do you know kung fu? Are you hyping up this duel just for publicity?"
¡¡
One person¡¯s voice was very small, but soon everyone burst out with dissatisfaction.
The cheers rose like a tide.
Seeing the situation at the scene, it was difficult to continue the stalemate, so Chen Zheng smiled and said to Wei Gucheng: "In this case, it is useless to talk more. Please go ahead."
After saying that, he swung the hem of his gown and made a gesture of invitation coolly.
Wei Gucheng was not polite. He knew that Chen Zheng's Tai Chi skills always emphasized the importance of striking later, and he expected that he would not be the first to strike, so he shouted: "Okay, here I come!"
Then his body suddenly moved forward.
The audience finally took a breath. After waiting for a long time, I thought they would not take action, but now they finally started.
And it¡¯s this move. There was only one reason why everyone was shocked, and that was Wei Gucheng's actions. It's so fast!
He and Chen Zheng were two feet away from each other, but before the last word of Wei Gucheng's sentence had completely fallen, he had already crossed the two feet distance and was in front of Chen Zheng in an instant.
"Oh my god!" Even Jones, who was not involved in the incident, felt the tremendous pressure brought by Wei Gucheng's flying approach and couldn't help but exclaimed.
You must know that although she has been studying Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for a long time and is considered a fighter, her speed is simply unbelievable. It's definitely beyond her reach.
?????????????????????????????????????????????? away from the old and welcome the new year at the banquet that day, Wei Gucheng showed mercy to him, and it was true!
The scene also erupted with a cry of "Wow"!
At first, people were worried that this was a hype stunt, but now many people feel in their hearts that they came to the right place this time. Maybe we can really see Kung Fu masters who only exist in legends and have a peak showdown.
The layman is just looking at the lively, Chen Zheng is looking at the door, but he is also shocked.
Chen Zheng had guessed before that since Wei Gucheng is a descendant of the Natural Sect, he should be like Du Xinwu, the great hero of the North and South. What I have learned is very complicated, but now it seems that it is true.
The opponent rushed over, but the distance of two feet was only two steps, and because the speed was too fast, it was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, and it seemed to be completed in one step.
The steps were so fast and swift that the whole person was struck by an arrow.
This is exactly the unique footwork of Pi Guaquan - a series of strenuous steps!
Chen Zheng just felt the air flow caused by Wei Gucheng, and the wind was blowing. Then, the opponent rounded his arm and smashed it on the head.
Piguaquan has always been famous for its speed and ruthlessness. What is fast is the footwork. This kind of illegal method can make you close in an instant even from a distance of more than ten meters. And being ruthless means exerting energy.
At this time, this punch is full of whip strength and has unrivaled power.
It¡¯s not just Tai Chi that emphasizes generating energy like whipping a whip. In fact, Chinese Kung Fu has the same purpose, especially these basic methods of generating energy, which are the focus of all martial arts.
Especially when using the long and far hitting style, the feet are like whip handles, the waist Dantian is like a whip pole, the fists are like whips, the torso opens and closes like a bow, and the chest and back are like strings. Only in this way can the power be like Shadowless Arrow.
The last time Wei Gucheng and Chen Zheng met, he was shocked by the silver needle that Chen Zheng shot out with an arrow. It was not that he didn't understand, but that he didn't know that the power could be used to such an extreme in hidden weapons.
But in terms of fists, Wei Gucheng is confident that this kind of strength does not belong to others, especially when combined with the unique fighting style of Pikau, the speed and strength can make people hard to guard against!
In fact, Wei Gucheng's cheating has indeed been perfectedIn the house.
Wei Gucheng has been practicing martial arts for more than ten years, and the first thing he practiced was Pigua!
Speaking of which, Wei Gucheng¡¯s family fell into decline later on, and he had to work as a bodyguard to support his family. But in fact, when Wei Gucheng was a child, his family was very wealthy. They had a large villa with a typical Western style, equipped with a garden and a neat lawn. Every day before dawn, he would practice the steps of Pi Guaquan in the courtyard.
It was not even daylight at that time, and people could only hear the sound of footsteps, but no one could be seen. The newly purchased brand-name sneakers were worn out after only half a month.
By the time he reached the age of fourteen or fifteen, his kung fu had reached the point where "you can't see the punch when you strike, but you can pass through a gust of wind". He was two feet away without jumping, just running quickly. Because of his high speed, it was like stepping on the wind. The fire wheel "swooshed" for the first time as if it was floating past.
Chen Zheng couldn't help but marvel. He originally thought that Wei Gucheng had learned too much and must not be good at it, but he didn't expect that the Pi Gua Fist was so powerful and the punches were so fast that it was almost difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.
If his other skills were at this level, it would be really difficult to deal with it!
So he quickly put away his contempt and responded with a solemn expression.
Fortunately, although the opponent's attack is fierce and powerful, Tai Chi is best at offloading force. As soon as the thug comes up, Chen Zheng's whole body is penetrated by silk energy, and the power of the fist is resolved bit by bit.
At the same time, Chen Zheng also felt that the foundation of Wei Gucheng's lower body was also very good. After a try, he could not even control the flow of power in his body, let alone control his center of gravity.
It seems that he also practices internal kung fu, and the kung fu has been practiced into the spinal cord, and there is no stiffness running on the surface of the body.
But even if he couldn't hear the source of his strength, Chen Zheng knew his next move.
Because Pi Guaquan is complicated, but for masters, there are only two moves in the final analysis.
"Chopping from top to bottom is called splitting, and lifting from bottom to top is called hanging."
When fighting, it¡¯s nothing more than using both split and hook punches, especially split and hook punches, which focus on attack, with round and round punches.
In fact, this is Chinese Kung Fu. In real Kung Fu, the moves are very simple. Many other tricks are completely empty and useless.
It¡¯s quite boring together. In fact, it¡¯s just shaking your arms non-stop every day. The movements are extremely ugly. But it is very aggressive and practical. Just like Wei Gucheng at this time, his arms are like clockwork, his sleeves are "crackling", and in conjunction with the chain steps under his feet, he must follow whenever he advances. If you follow, you will advance, out of control, like a river flowing thousands of miles!
And the fists came rushing towards Chen Zheng¡¯s face.
Chen Zheng had no choice. If he didn't parry, he would be hit. If he parryed, he wouldn't be able to do it all at once. Instead, he would be suppressed by the opponent's continuous offensive, and he would have no ability to counterattack in a short period of time.
For Wei Gucheng¡¯s Piguaquan, the best defense is to attack, attack, and attack!
Chen Zheng has little experience in dueling with real masters. When he encounters such a life-threatening boxing technique, he really cannot adapt to it in a short period of time. He is completely passive and keeps retreating. (To be continued: Gone with the Sky. Registered members of literature recommend this work.
