Description
Jiang was a famous Kung Fu expert who, in the early 20th century, started writing about true Chinese martial arts to preserve them. In this text he talks about the origins of Xing Yi and pokes some holes into the "Three Arts as One" theory. The exposition is on the two "long" Xing Yi sets: Zha Zhi Chui and Ba Shi Quan both of which intermingle the main actions of Xing Yi into flexible and integrated forms. Ba Shi according to Jiang, was invented by Yue WuMu (Yue Fei) the famous Chinese folk hero who, it is said, invented Xing Yi itself.
