They are small, light and easy to carry. Most of them have sharp blades. They can throw more than ten meters or even dozens of meters away, with high speed and strong concealment, which is equivalent to a substantial extension of conventional weapons and great power. Wulin pays attention to one-on-one combat, and the two sides are evenly matched, so hidden weapons will come in handy. Hidden weapons is a martial art in China, which reached its peak in Qing Dynasty and was widely used in Wulin. It was not until the prevalence of firearms in the late Qing Dynasty that hidden weapons was gradually left out in the cold, but there were still people practicing this skill in the Wulin.

Hidden weapons can be divided into four categories: hand throwing, rope hitting, machine shooting and drug spraying, and each category includes several kinds.

There are javelin, money dart, darts, flying arrows (flying arrows), flying forks, flying cymbals, flying thorns (including triangular thorns and Emei thorns), flying swords, flying knives, migratory locust stones, pebbles, iron olives (jujube stone arrows), Ruyi pearls, dried Quan Kun, iron mandarin ducks, iron toads, plum blossom needles and so on.

Machine-launched hidden weapons has sleeve arrows, slingshots, crossbows, tight-back crossbows, treading crossbows, thunder drills, etc.

Hidden weapons include sleeve guns, nozzles, beak spears, etc.

There are also some hidden weapons that are difficult to fall into the above four categories, such as blowing arrows, pointing swords, steel rings, helmets, daggers and hand cones.

Blowing an arrow is hiding a tiny bamboo arrows in a blowpipe. When facing the enemy, blow hard at one end of the blowpipe, and bamboo arrows will be ejected from the other end of the pipe. The blowpipe is made of bamboo. The short blowpipe is about 25 cm long and the long blowpipe is about 50 cm long. Open at both ends, smooth appearance. It can also be used as a short stick, which was quite popular in Wulin in the old days.

Finger sword is a miniature dagger that fits on the finger, steel ring is a steel ring that fits on the finger, and helmet is a steel ring that fits on the back of hand, with protrusions. Dagger is a short weapon. In the old days, Wulin people often hid it around their waist or stuffed it in a whip tube, and they could pull it out at any time to attack the enemy, so it became hidden weapons again. The hand cone is made of copper or iron, with a triangular end and a handle at the back. It is about 20 cm long and can be hidden in the sleeve to surprise people. In the Qing dynasty, lamas often carried copper hand cones with them.

In addition, there are some weapons between conventional weapons and concealed weapons, such as rattan knives and iron fans. Sugarcane knife, also known as? Two people take it? The staff is hollow and narrow, with a long knife inside. The handle of the staff is organically closed. If someone grabs the staff, according to the motive, they can draw a sword and stab the enemy. The handle of a walking stick is the handle. In order to facilitate actual combat, the handle of walking stick knife is mostly straight, rather than half-curved like ordinary walking sticks. The ribs of the iron fan are made of pure steel, and the fan surface is made of silk. When it is opened, it can be used as an ordinary fan, and when it is closed, it can be chopped. Sugarcane knives and iron fans are still popular.

In all hidden weapons, throwing hidden weapons by hand is the most widely used and has the most styles. Here are some.

Darts, aka? Selling darts? There are three darts, which are triangular, pentagonal and cylindrical, and the front is pointed. The dart is about 10 cm long and weighs about 0.2 kg. The dart tail is often tied with red and green silk, which is called? A dart coat? It is about 8 cm long, which helps the darts to fly stably. According to legend, darts originated in the western regions. In the Northern Song Dynasty, Sichuan monks learned this technique and later spread it to the Central Plains. By the Qing Dynasty, almost everyone in Wulin had learned this skill, and it was still very popular in the Republic of China.

Money dart is to use old square hole copper coins as darts. Generally, money darts sharpen the periphery of copper coins, just like the blade. When thrown, they fly forward and hurt people by its edge. Those who are deeply skilled do not need to sharpen their blades, but fall directly by wrist strength. But the weight of copper coins is extremely light, and it is not easy to practice this skill well. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, silver dollar was the currency in circulation. The silver dollar is heavy and often carried, so some people use it instead of copper coins as hidden weapons.

Archery, aka? Cutting arrow? Or? Wrestling and archery? It is named because it must be the left wrist. This throwing arrow is made entirely of fine bamboo, with a round shaft, a sharp front end and no feathers at the back, just like a sharpened bamboo chopstick. Therefore, materials are easily available and easy to make, so there are many Chinese people in Wulin. After the art is finished, you can infer from each other. Anything short and thin, such as chopsticks and branches, can be easily thrown at the enemy. However, it is not easy to practice bamboo arrows lightly. Generally, the heavier iron arrow (weighing about 0.3kg) is practiced first, then bamboo arrows with iron arrow (weighing about 0. 1kg), and finally bamboo arrows (weighing about 0.0 1kg) can be practiced. Legend has it that archery originated from Shaolin Temple in Songshan Mountain, and it didn't spread to the society until the early Qing Dynasty.

Locust stone is a kind of angular, slender and hard stone, named after its shape is slightly like locusts. Locust stone? Each locust stone weighs about 0.2kg and is usually put in a bag and hung around the waist. Pebbles are oval stones on the river beach, so they are named because their shapes and weights are similar to those of goose eggs. Pebble? . Locust stones and pebbles are easy to see and inexhaustible, so they are very popular in Wulin.

Plum blossom needle is also a rare hidden weapon. Its structure is that five steel needles are connected to the roots, hitting the enemy's back, and five points are pricked, like five petals of plum blossoms. The length of the needle is about 3 cm. Plum blossom needle has a long history in Wulin, but now it is almost extinct.

Gankun circle is an iron ring with a diameter of about 15cm. The inner and outer edges are all angular, and after being thrown out, it will hit the enemy in a rotating way. Skilled artists can throw two laps with one hand, but it is not easy to practice. Someone once threw a circle outside the house and cut off ten waist-high candles, which amazed the viewers.

Ruyi beads are steel beads or jade beads that people play casually, and pecans can also be used. Nowadays, the wishful beads used by people in Wulin are mostly small steel balls, which are light in weight and easy to carry, and are mostly taken from waste bearings.

The most common hidden weapons are rope darts, meteor hammers, flying claws and soft whips.

A rope dart is a long rope tied to the tail of a steel dart. Steel darts are slightly larger than ordinary darts, about 0.2 meters long and weighing about 0.3 kilograms. They have a wide tip and a round tail, and an iron ring to tie the rope. The length of the rope is about 6.7- 10 meter. Usually, the rope dart can be wrapped around the waist. The rope dart is sent by the shaking of the arm and wrist, which can hit the enemy far away and can be taken back immediately after being sent out. Just because the rope is long, it is not easy to get it right. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, an escort named Dong in Weihui House, Henan Province (now Weihui City) was quite good at this. He once put a copper coin on the outside of the white porcelain cover of the kerosene lamp. Dong suddenly put a rope dart two feet away and hit the copper coin, but the lampshade was intact. In the early Republic of China, there was a martial artist named Meng Jiyong in Tianqiao, Beijing, who performed rope darts. Meng Jiyong is a righteous man in Wuyi, Hebei. He was in his sixties and an escort. He called it a rope dart? Shake your head? .

Meteor hammer is to tie the hammer to the end of a long rope and throw it out to hurt the enemy. Hammer-shaped, or round, or melon-shaped, or polygonal, weighing about 1.5-2.5 kg, and the maximum weight can reach 4.5 kg. There are two eyes behind the hammer, with iron rings tied to them and long ropes tied to them. The rope length is about 7- 10 meter. Because of the great impulse of the hammer, it is not suitable for ordinary hemp rope, but made of silk, human hair and deer tendon filaments, making the long rope soft and tough and not easy to break. In the early years of the Republic of China, Chen Luokui was good at using meteor hammers. She once hit a stone pillar two feet away, hitting every shot, and then broke four pillars. The meteor hammer used by Chen Luokui is made of forged copper and weighs 3.5 kilograms. The long rope is thicker than the thumb. Chen Luokui told a friend that he has been practicing this skill for ten years, but only his right hand is ok, and his left hand is not accurate enough, so he still needs to practice hard.

Flying claw is a powerful hidden weapon. Claws are made of steel, slightly like palms. There are five steel claws. Each claw is divided into three sections and can be extended and retracted. The end of the first section is very sharp, like a chicken claw. A mechanism is installed in the steel claw palm to control each claw. The tail of the steel claw is tied with a long rope which is connected with the mechanism. When you hit a person with a flying claw, as long as you pull the long rope, the steel claw will suddenly shrink inward, and the claw tip will sink deeply into the meat, and the enemy will never get rid of it. In the Qing dynasty, Rong Kang, a Shanxi thief, was famous for this, claiming to be? Flying claw king? Then I passed this skill on to Mao of Tianjin Escort Agency. After Mao became an artist, he didn't insert a dart flag when running darts, but only hung a flying claw on the dart car. The thief saw this thing and retreated by himself. Since the Republic of China, flying claws used in Wulin have no mechanism, only three or five claws are fixed, which are mostly used to climb high walls.

The most common machine-launched hidden weapons is the cuff arrow.

There are two kinds of cufflinks: single-tube cufflinks and plum-blossom cufflinks. These two kinds of cuff arrows are tied to the forearm, and the front end of the barrel is close to the wrist and covered with sleeves. There is a spring in the barrel, and the barrel is equipped with a mechanism. Press the mechanism and the small arrow in the barrel will shoot forward. A single barrel sleeve arrow can only hold one arrow at a time, and it must be reloaded after shooting. Plum-blossom sleeve arrows can hold six small arrows at a time, one arrow in the middle and five arrows around, which are arranged in a plum blossom shape and can be fired continuously. The shaft of the sleeve arrow is cut from fine bamboo, about 20 cm long, and the front end is equipped with an iron arrow. The barrel of a single barrel sleeve arrow is about 24 cm long and 2.4 cm in diameter. It is made of copper and iron, and there is a hole at the top of the barrel for placing arrows. The hole in the front of the barrel is the source of the arrow. The barrel of the plum blossom cuff arrow is slightly thicker, with a diameter of about 3.5 cm and a length of about 24 cm. There are six small tubes in the barrel, each of which can hold an arrow.

Cufflink arrows are fired by machines, which are easy to get accurate, powerful and extremely difficult to prevent, and are most popular among Wulin people. According to legend, the single-sleeved arrow was created by Xiahe Taoist in Baihe Palace in Yunyang (now Sichuan Province) in the Northern Song Dynasty. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, Xu from Tai 'an, Shandong Province was good at this skill. Xiaoyang Ji You? . Xu Sun Shi first shot an arrow into the air, then loaded it and shot it again. The second arrow hit the arrow of the first arrow and the third arrow hit the arrow of the second arrow. Five arrows in a row, all of which are like this. What's it called? Arrow pointing? . According to legend, the plum cufflinks were created by Amin Liu Yuyan, and have been popular in Wulin ever since. Li Er Eva's surname Li is the best at this skill, Li Tianshou claims? An arrow? . Li Peipei, the seventh grandson of Li Tianshou, is even more amazing in his skills. Every dead target hits the target, without exception. Li Pei entered the Greenwood in his early years and later became a bodyguard. The thieves were frightened and called it? Pierce the cloud arrow? .

Leigong diamond is a kind of heavy hidden weapons, which is now extinct. Here is a brief introduction.

Leigong drill consists of hammer and drill. The hammer is made of iron, about 17 cm long, the wooden handle is about 20 cm long, and the total weight of the hammer is about 1.5-2 kg, which is similar to ordinary small hammers, but the handle is shorter and the hammer is heavier. The drill bit is made of steel, with four edges, a sharp front end and a thick back, and the thickest end is square, with a side length of about 3 cm. The weight of the drill is between 0.5 and 0.75 kg. When in use, the drill is held in the left hand and the hammer in the right hand, and the drill can fly out by slamming the bottom of the drill from behind. Because the steel drill has edges, it has a great impact when knocking, so you must wear a soft leather cover on your left hand to prevent injury. You must use both hands when firing a Lei Gong drill. Moreover, the hammer drill is inherently heavy and lacks concealment when attacking the enemy. Therefore, few people in the old Wulin practice this skill. However, the power of Lei Gong Diamond is very strong, which can seriously injure the enemy within 15 meters, and its power is unmatched by many hidden weapons.

Sleeve gun is the most widely used spray in concealed weapons.

Sleeve gun is a special concealed weapon mixed with gunpowder. It evolved from the ancient muzzle gun. In fact, it is a small muzzle firearm, hence the name? Sleeve gun? . The sleeve gun is made of a bamboo tube the thickness of a small wine glass, about 40 cm long, and there are three iron hoops on the bamboo tube. One end of the bamboo tube is a muzzle, and the periphery is wrapped with thin iron sheet; At the other end of the bamboo tube is a medicine cavity, which is also covered with thin iron sheet. Put gunpowder in the bamboo tube first, and then put stone beads (yellow mud beads are also acceptable). When in use, the bamboo tube is held in the left hand, and the concave part of the powder is hit with the palm of the right hand, which triggers the explosion of gunpowder and the rapid ejection of stone beads, which has great lethality. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, nurses and some people in escort agencies often used sleeve guns.

Sprayer is also a concealed weapon for spraying drugs. Its structure is similar to that of children's jet pump. It is also made of bamboo, with spray holes in the front and push rods in the back, and lime powder in the bucket. Push the push rod forward, and lime powder will be ejected from the nozzle, which can fascinate the enemy's eyes and make them lose their resistance. But this technique is mean and clumsy, isn't it? Cheap? Most people in Wulin disdain to use it.

It should be pointed out that many hidden weapons can be poisoned. After colliding with each other, the venom can spread to the whole body with the blood, causing rapid death. However, in Wulin, it is important to fight decently. Anyone who gives medicine in hidden weapons and causes coma with incense is regarded as scum and despised by his Wulin colleagues. In the past, even those Jiang Yang thieves seldom used hidden weapons and incense.
