I practiced my spirituality alone in Hong Kong.

Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an suddenly realized what was going on.

That's it!

No wonder the storyteller kept calling him a successor of the Snake Style Fist.

Perhaps, from the narrator's perspective, Brother Chen's character in the play is his true identity!

Chen Yuanlong was unaware that his words had stirred Li Chang'an's thoughts, leading him to uncover a crucial clue.

He assumed Li Chang'an was only interested in snake-style boxing and making kung fu movies, and thinking of this, Chen Yuanlong happily said:

"Anzai, since you're so interested in snake-style boxing, with your skills, Director Yuan will definitely keep you here."

You'll have to learn this snake-style boxing later, so let me demonstrate it for you beforehand.

As he spoke, Chen Yuanlong stood up, dusted off the dirt on his buttocks, and then assumed a horse stance.

laugh!

A soft, hissing sound, like a snake flicking its tongue, broke through the air!

Chen Yuanlong suddenly lowered his waist and hips, his legs like a python coiling around a rock, his left foot lightly touching the ground and his right knee slightly bent with power, his whole body like a green python lurking in the wilderness, his shoulders and back relaxed and his spine like a swaying tail.

Li Chang'an looked at his hands bent at his waist and saw two snakes hiding in a hole, waiting for their chance to strike.

The next moment, Chen Yuanlong straightened his spine, his waist and abdomen sprang up like a snake, and his right hand, hidden at his side, shot out with a sharp wind, the edge of his palm like a snake's fangs, straight ahead.

Young man, your encouragement has roused the disheartened successor of the Snake Fist style, who was being hunted by enemies of the Eagle Claw Sect. He now considers you a confidant.

A successor of the Snake Form Fist is passing on the lineage of Snake Form Fist to you as a way of repaying you for reshaping the heart of a martial artist...

Congratulations, young man, on acquiring the low-level skill: "Snake Fist (Beginner 0/100)".

hiss hiss hiss—

After delivering a powerful set of snake-style punches, Chen Yuanlong let out a deep breath.

Seeing Li Chang'an standing there in a daze, he suddenly brightened his eyes for some reason and asked with some confusion:

"Anzai, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, Brother Chen... I just saw you practicing your boxing so intently that I wanted to try it myself."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuanlong smiled dismissively.

"Anzai, this set of boxing techniques looks easy, but it is actually very difficult to grasp the essence of the snake-like movements."

Even the veteran martial arts choreographers from the Yuen Clan spent half a month figuring it out, and Director Yuen still scolded them, saying, "How can you possibly pull it off after only watching it once?"

"It's nothing, Brother Chen, we were just playing around."

Li Chang'an stood up, dusted off his pants, took a deep breath, relaxed his waist and shoulders, and raised his hand to begin the snake-like motion.

In an instant, the smile on Chen Yuanlong's lips vanished, and his eyes turned serious.

Whether someone has skill or not, an expert can tell at a glance.

Although Chen Yuanlong doesn't consider himself an expert or master, he has practiced martial arts since childhood, met countless martial arts masters, and even acted alongside the legendary kung fu star Bruce Lee. He definitely has a keen eye for talent.

Just by looking at Li Chang'an's snake-like stance, he knew... this kid definitely had a foundation in martial arts! And with the guidance of a master, his stance was very pure!

He previously said he had no training, but that was just him bluffing!

breathe--

Li Chang'an's chest vibrated slightly when he inhaled, and his exhalation was like a snake hissing, producing a sharp hissing sound.

His body moved like a snake, and his hands moved like a snake spitting its tongue.

The front hand reaches halfway, and the back hand follows closely, like a snake's tail coiling around a branch. The wrist flips slightly, and the palm wraps around the wrist and arm.

The four movements of Snake Fist – coiling, drilling, twisting, and swinging – are executed in one smooth motion.

Li Chang'an moved with agility, gliding and shifting across the ground, his entire being as elusive and graceful as a green snake swimming in water.

If Chen Yuanlong's boxing style is like that of a clumsy python, his punches and kicks, though swift and powerful, always have a stiff and sluggish feel to them.

At this moment, Li Chang'an truly transformed into a nimble green snake. His punches and kicks appeared soft and weak, yet they were sharp and cold, like a snake eyeing its prey, drawing its attack but not striking, waiting for the right moment.

Even after Li Chang'an stopped, the serpentine energy swirling around him lingered for a long time.

Chen Yuanlong was overjoyed and was about to shout his approval when a slender figure strode forward.

"Good job, young man!"

"Director Yuan, what brings you here?" Chen Yuanlong subconsciously lowered his voice, his tone unconsciously carrying a hint of restraint.

Director Yuan ignored him and stared intently at Li Chang'an.

"Young man, take a look at my Snake-like Fist style, how about the 'Snake Entangling the Tree' move?"

After speaking, Director Yuan lowered his waist and began to perform a set of "Snake Entangling Tree" moves with fluid grace, more experienced than the previous three martial arts choreographers and Chen Yuanlong, with a touch more charm in his moves.

But Li Chang'an gently shook his head.

"Director Yuan, your waist and hips are not relaxed, and your body lacks the agility of a snake coiling around its body."

Li Chang'an was not intimidated. Even in front of the stern and respected Director Yuan, he frankly said that Director Yuan's boxing had its shortcomings.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuanlong was instinctively startled.

Anzai, you used to be so good at talking when we chatted before, why are you so clueless now!

Director Yuan usually dislikes people talking back to him the most!

Chen Yuanlong felt nervous for Li Chang'an. He was about to make a joke to smooth things over when he saw Director Yuan step forward like a student and say urgently:

"Young man, can you help me fix this?"

Li Chang'an immediately reached out and gently nudged Director Yuan's waist and hips, signaling him to turn his waist and hips to release the force and lower his shoulders.

Director Yuan performed another set of Snake Entanglement on a Tree, and immediately felt a bit more resilience in his punches and kicks, as if he had found the supple body of a snake, agile and powerful as it wrapped around a tree branch.

The wrinkles on his thin face smoothed out, and a flush of excitement rose on his cheeks. He sighed repeatedly:

"Hands follow the waist, flowing like water! It's as if the limbs and spine are transforming into the body of a snake!"

"Great! Excellent! We've finally mastered the essentials of Snake Style Kung Fu, now the movie can finally start filming!"

Director Yuan took a deep breath, his gaze turning more serious as he looked at Li Chang'an: "Handsome, what's your name?"

"Li Chang'an, Director Yuan, just call me Anzai."

"Anzai, is there a master of Shaolin Imitation Boxing in your family?"

"No, I've never been exposed to kung fu before. Brother Chen just performed a set, and I copied a few moves. It was just something I felt inspired to do. Please forgive me if there's anything wrong with it, Director Yuan."

Li Chang'an was not lying; the Snake Style Fist was indeed "taught" to him by Chen Yuanlong, a successor of the Snake Style Fist, through narration.

It's just that even Chen Yuanlong himself can't type it out.

But Director Yuan naturally didn't believe that Li Chang'an could learn the Snake Style Fist just by glancing at it twice.

Although he regarded Li Chang'an as a benefactor who enlightened him, the young man was simply too young.

To be able to learn someone else's kung fu in just a few glances and to be able to easily correct the problems in someone else's kung fu is a skill that would put one at the level of establishing a school of kung fu.

Those who can achieve this level are all masters who have spent decades honing their skills.

Therefore, Director Yuan firmly believes that Li Chang'an has a master of Xiangxingquan (a style of Chinese martial arts) behind him. He learned skills like snake-style boxing a long time ago, but he is unwilling to mention his family's lineage now.

Director Yuan understood this, after all, extraordinary people like Li Chang'an's elders in the family were generally unwilling to reveal their true nature.

Thinking of this, Director Yuan stopped asking about the martial arts master in Li Chang'an's family, but his gaze towards him was filled with admiration.

Upon seeing this, Chen Yuanlong immediately said:

"Director Yuen, this young man Anzai truly has the most natural kung fu skills I've ever seen; he's an absolute genius!"

Please, Director Yuan, give him a chance to showcase his talent. Let him come to the set and give it a try!

"Should we let him give it a try?"

Director Yuan frowned and glanced at Chen Yuanlong, sending a chill down Chen Yuanlong's spine.

Why is Director Yuan angry?

Didn't he just admire Andy Lau a moment ago?

Director Yuan looked at Chen Yuanlong and said somewhat anxiously:

"Longzai, you really don't know how to handle things. We should say that no matter what, we have to keep Anzai here!"
