Buddhist boxing originated in the era of the anti-Qing and restoration movement in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and originated from Southern Shaolin. At that time, many Han patriots were dissatisfied with the invasion of the Manchus and the brutal rule of the Qing government, and launched an anti-Qing and restoration movement. In order to avoid the pursuit of the Qing government, many people fled to Southern Shaolin for asylum. More than a hundred years ago, the Qing government sent thousands of Qing soldiers to burn down the Shaolin Temple on the charge that the Shaolin monks were harboring and colluding with the "rebels" of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to rebel, and countless Shaolin monks were killed and injured. In order to avoid the pursuit of the Qing soldiers, Master Yijiahai, a Shaolin monk, took his apprentice Li Huabao (allegedly the son of Li Zicheng) and disguised himself as a street performer under the name of returning to secular life, and fled all the way south to Guangdong for refuge. In 1863, they went down the Pearl River and came to the Lihua and Liangxiang of Huangliangdu, Xiangshan County at that time (now Lishan Village and Hushan Village, Qianwu Town, Doumen District). Due to the remote location of the two villages and inconvenient transportation, it was not easy for the Qing court to detect. Moreover, the two villages have a folk custom of practicing martial arts since ancient times. The villagers are warm and hospitable, and treat the two of them like family members, so the master and apprentice settled down there. At that time, it was allowed to establish a "tuanlian" in the village to resist bandits, so Li Huabao stayed and opened a school to teach martial arts. Since then, Buddhist boxing has taken root in Lishan Village and has been passed down to this day. The name of the school has been changed from the original "Yinghe Mountain House" to the current "Lishan Zhong Jingwu Hall". Buddhist boxing has learned from many strengths and integrated a variety of kung fu into one, and then expressed it in the simplest way possible. Although it has many technical movements with strong fists and fast movements, it also has slow, soft movements and feminine techniques to improve the internal strength and internal strength of the practitioners. The unique combination of hardness and softness, and the cultivation of both inside and outside. In June 2010, Buddhist boxing was included in the third batch of Zhuhai City's intangible cultural heritage list.
