We usually see many martial arts masters with unique skills in various martial arts movies and film and television dramas. They fly over the walls and are omnipotent. I originally thought that these characters were all fabricated. Who would have thought that in the late Qing Dynasty in our country, there really existed such a master insider.
This person used to be the leader of the guards, defended Emperor Guangxu, is a four-rank guard with swords, is the last chief guard in the Qing Dynasty, and his mission is to protect the safety of the imperial city. With the development of the times, guns and ammunition have gradually replaced knives, guns, swords and halberds.
But this master insider is extraordinary, his speed is so fast that even bullets can easily dodge. The martial arts master Miya Haneda played by the teacher of Wang Qingxiang in the movie " The Great Master ", its prototype character is Gong Baotian .
Empress Dowager Cixi rewarded him yellow mantle , the famous northeast warlord Zhang Zuolin wanted to ask him to be a bodyguard, and even wanted to ask him to be a bodyguard with General Xu Shiyou. He is Gong Baotian. Is his martial arts as powerful as the legend? Is he really able to avoid guns?
Gong Baotian was born in the tenth year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty. He is a native of Rushan, Shandong. From the moment he was born, he was destined to have an extraordinary life. Legend has it that when he was born, a white sika deer appeared at the door. Strangely, this sika deer did not hide from others.A well-known local fortune teller heard about this new thing and ran over to tell his family: Your children will definitely do a lot in the future, and they can become the emperor's side when they grow up.
Because this fortune teller is quite prestigious in the local area, many people are willing to believe his words. Knowing that Gong Baotian will have a lot of promise in the future, the rich and powerful people around will come to make friends with the palace family, some will send food, and some will directly give land. The living conditions of the Gong family, who were not originally wealthy, became better. The family also tried every means to get Gong Baotian to go to school, hoping that one day they could really get fame and fame as the fortune teller said.
Unfortunately, Gong Baotian's school journey was not smooth, his grades have been mediocre, and his family could not afford the expensive tuition, so he was forced to drop out of school and come to a rice shop in Beijing to make a living as an apprentice. Mixing did nothing more than the hard work of carrying. Although Gong Baotian was only 13 years old at the time, he was very strong. In addition, he was also very hardworking and never slacking off. The owner of Mixing liked him very much. The huge task of delivering rice to the Palace of the Capital was entrusted to him.
On this day, Gong Baotian came to the palace to deliver rice, just as the palace was inviting people to sing, and Gong Baotian wanted to go forward. Pour tea to the prince, but he couldn't do anything. In a hurry, he jumped up on the pillar and walked towards the prince on the shoulder of the theaterman. Originally he was not standing on a flat ground, it would be difficult to pour water, but none of the tea in his hand was spilled. All this was seen by the guard Yin Fu in the palace. Yin Fu felt that he was a martial arts wizard, so he introduced him to his master Dong Haichuan. After that, the palace Baoyu became a disciple of Dong Haichuan, frequently entering and leaving the palace, which also laid the foundation for Gongbaotian's entry into the palace.
Practicing exercises is originally a hard job, which requires children's skills, but Miyaboda was 13 years old when he started learning, and missed the best period. Only by working twice as hard as others, can it be possible to catch up. overtake. When Yin Fu is not busy, he will personally train Gong Baotian so that he can start from the most basic Zama step with a bowl in his hand. You can rest only when the bowl is filled with sweat. Fortunately, Gong Baotian has a high savvy. Although he started late, he quickly grasped the essence. Dong Haichuan was very pleased and gave Gong Baotian a lesson.
Gong Baotian officially entered the palace at the age of 16. He has a good skill at a young age, which makes people both enviable and admired. It didn't take long for him to become a qualified Ouchi guard. Gong Baotian has been guarding the Forbidden City in this way for more than two years. At the age of 18, he became the personal guard of Emperor Guangxu. When the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China, Gong Baotian, the leader of the guards, protected the Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu all the way to Xi’an. The escort had meritorious service and was given a "yellow mantle". What the fortune teller said before has been fulfilled.
The news soon reached Gong Baotian’s hometown, and the people in the surrounding villages were shocked by the news that Gong Baotian entered the palace. At that time, the people who worked in the imperial city were equivalent to our current iron rice bowl, and they ate the national food. You must know that in a poor and backward country, it is even more joyful to be able to produce such a person than the champion in high school. Gong Baotian has once again become a topic of discussion in Shili Eight Villages, and Gong Baotian's home has once again become crowded. The fortune-teller also followed suit, and his business has become more and more prosperous.
Gong Baotian insists on practicing martial arts every day, and martial arts also grows every day. Being surrounded by the high walls of the imperial palace for a long time, Gong Baotian has developed a beautiful light exercise. He is as light as a swallow and he is free to come and go. Many people think that he is as dexterous as a monkey picking peaches from a tree, so he gave Gong Baotian the nickname " palace monkey ".
The world is impermanent, and the idea of Emperor Guangxu’s attempt to reform was strangled in the cradle by conservatives. He was imprisoned and eventually killed by poison. All this made Gong Baotian regretful,As his personal guard, he has the ability to protect him, but Gong Baotian couldn't forgive himself, so he chose to resign and return to his hometown and farm for a living.
Although Gong Baotian is no longer in the arena, there are still legends about him in the arena, and his reputation as the number one master in Ouchi is still famous. Zhang Zuolin, the Northeast warlord, had always wanted to find a capable bodyguard because he had made too many enemies abroad. After hearing that the master around Emperor Guangxu had resigned and returned to his hometown, he had been sending people to inquire about him.
After learning about Gong Baotian, Zhang Zuolin intends to visit him in person to show his sincerity. But at the same time, Zhang Zuolin still has doubts in his heart. He may have been as superb as the legend before, but after so many years, has his martial arts regressed?
Gong Baotian has been working in the fields all year round, and the wind and sun have not only turned dark, but also a little hunched back. No one can connect him now with the famous Ouchi No. 1 master back then. Seeing what Gong Baotian looked like now, Zhang Zuolin couldn't help being a little disappointed. Perhaps the masters who were once really no longer exist.
Gong Baotian is an old man in the palace, he is the best at observing words and colors, and he can see through Zhang Zuolin's concerns at a glance. But he was not angry, but smiled and said to Zhang Zuolin: If you don't believe it, you can try my skills. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Zuolin stood 20 meters away from Gongbaotian and took out a pistol and shot at Gongbaotian.
Zhang Zuolin has been in the various warlord forces for decades, and his marksmanship is very good, but when he aimed at Gong Bao Tian and shot, Gong Bao Tian easily escaped the bullet. Not reconciled, Zhang Zuolin fired another shot, but Gong Baotian dodged him flexibly, and instantly came behind Zhang Zuolin, asking him if he needed a third shot? Seeing is believing, this time Zhang Zuolin completely eliminated the doubts in his mind, and convincingly hired Gong Baotian as his bodyguard.
After this,Gong Baotian always followed Zhang Zuolin to protect him, but in 1928, Japan secretly planned the Huanggutun incident, and Zhang Zuolin was bombed and killed. This incident gave Gong Baotian a fatal blow. He failed to protect his employer twice, and Gong Baotian was completely discouraged. He returned to his hometown again, but this time instead of farming, he set up a martial arts factory and recruited apprentices widely, hoping that his martial arts could be passed on and there would be successors.
In 1941, Xu Shiyou was in Jiaodong, Shandong. He heard about Gong Baotian's deeds and was full of curiosity about this man. Because he came from the Shaolin Temple and has kung fu, he usually likes to exchange martial arts with various masters. Xu Shiyou began to inquire about Gongbaotian's news everywhere, and finally met him in Qingshan Village.
Gong Baotian has heard of Xu Shiyou's name a long time ago, and he is very pleased with his arrival. The martial arts practitioners are more straightforward and candid. The first time they met, they chatted very speculatively, has a feeling of seeing each other late.
The two met with martial arts, and both showed each other their unique skills, and Gong Baotian showed off his superb knife skills. Originally, the two were to compete against each other, but considering that Gong Baotian was 70 years old, he was afraid that he would accidentally hurt the elderly, so he thought about choosing to let Gong Baotian dance the sword alone.
Gong Baotian asked the soldiers next to Xu Shiyou to continuously pour water on him while he danced his knives. When he danced with a knife, the water in the bucket was splashed out, but Gong Baotian didn't even get a drop of water on his body. Instead, it was this soldier who silently took all the water blocked by the knife and became a drunkard.
Xu Shiyou was shocked by this dazzling set of swordsmanship, and he was still quite proud of it. So I found a handful of mung beans and distributed them to the soldiers to see if any of them could crush the mung beans with their hands. All of them exhausted all their energy and couldn't do it, but Xu Shiyou crushed the mung bean with a light finger.
Gong Baotian could look energetically on the sidelines and wanted to try it too. He reached out and picked up a mung bean.The mung beans were crushed without much effort. It is said that the insider is watching the doorway, and the outsider is watching the excitement. Xu Shiyou knows that behind this seemingly simple pinch of mung beans, it requires extremely strong skill as a support. Moreover, Gong Baoyu is now 70 years old, and the admiration in his heart has further deepened.
Immediately after, Gong Baotian reproduced his unique skill of avoiding bullets in front of Xu Shiyou. Gong Baotian asked the guards beside Xu Shiyou to stand 20 meters away from him, and shot him after the countdown three times. Xu Shiyou deliberately called the guard to his side, and carefully warned: You must not hurt Gong Baotian. According to Gong Baotian's request, the guard arrived at the corresponding position and began the countdown.
After the gunshot, the guard looked up and he had already disappeared from Miya Baotian. Just when everyone looked surprised, Miya Baotian came over with a smile from the side. Gong Baotian humbly explained that thanks to the three-second reaction time, I was able to dodge the bullet in time. Back then, I also became Zhang Zuolin's bodyguard because of this unique skill.
Xu Shiyou knew in his heart that Miya Baotian was only modest, and he was able to avoid bullets so flexibly when he was getting older. It would never be possible for an ordinary person to give him the same reaction time. As you can imagine, What will Gong Baotian's skill in his youth be like! Xu Shiyou thought that if he met Gong Baotian when he was young, he would definitely lose .
The two martial idiots played against each other and established a deep friendship. Xu Shiyou admired Miya Baotian’s light work in my heart and appreciated it, and at the same time, invited Miya Baotian to serve in his army. Coach , Gong Baotian also gladly accepted. Unfortunately, before he had time to teach in the Eighth Route Army, Gong Baotian became seriously ill during the Japanese sweep and passed away at the age of 72. .It's a pity that a generation of "big inner masters" fell in this way.
