Character story

Shaolin time

In the past, many people heard that commander Xu Shiyou had practiced Kung Fu in Shaolin Temple, but few people knew that Qian Jun, a deputy commander of Nanjing Military Region, was also from Shaolin.

Qian Jun was born in qianjiawan, Guangshan County, Henan Province. When he was six years old, he was not as tall as a cow, so he was sent to the landlord's house as a cowherd. A pair of small hands, holding the reins of the ox for more than ten feet, walked on the ox's back for two years in the wind and rain. Finally, because of the beating and scolding from the owner, they went to a passing painter to beg for food. As a result, eight year old Qian Jun took up the paint burden again. He followed the painters through the streets all the year round, regardless of winter and summer. The painter was very irascible. When he was not satisfied with his work, he punched and kicked little Qian Jun. when he was 11 years old, he could not endure any longer. According to the neighboring agreement, Qian Jun worked as an apprentice in Xuanhua, Hubei Province.

Living in Shaolin temple for five years, Qian Jun has developed a whole body of martial arts. He is especially famous for his "Iron Palm". His "cinnabar palm" is really like a sharp axe that has just been cast. If he takes a big rock, it will break up immediately. As for cutting green bricks, it's just like cutting tofu. He and Xu Shiyou are from the same hometown. Because their families were too poor to survive, they were exiled to Shaolin Temple as hard labor at a young age. He entered the temple three years later than Xu Shiyou. Two people together in the temple for five years, the same year out of the temple gate. At that time, monks gathered in the temple. Although the two "Bodhisattvas" were in the same temple, they did not know each other. It was not until the long march arrived in Yan'an that they talked about the past with each other that they realized that there were still such things.

Take part in the revolution

In 1927, Qian Jun was personally introduced by Comrade Dong Biwu and swore to join the party. After the failure of the great revolution, he joined the revolutionary army led by the party. From then on, in the mountains of Hubei, Henan and Anhui, in the snow mountains and grasslands, and in the hard years of war, his martial arts and his strong body like the iron tower made him more powerful in the war.
