"Liuhe bafa's place of origin is Lu-yi Village [ 陸一村 ] , located in [ 河南 ] Henan Province's Shen Qiu County. [ 省沈丘县 ] [??ShangQui ??] [subjective due to origin of Chen] That region ..., as well as Hei-long-jiang Province's [ 黑龙江省 ] Jia Si Mu Region, [佳木斯市 ] are places where it exists in abundance.    "However, even among those practitioners, the Liuhe bafa training method of Wu Yi Hui is distinct;  his Liuhebafa as an art and skill have considerable worth."

"Another specialist in Liuhe bafa is Mr. Xu Wen Bing, 許文冰 a feudal official of Jinan City 濟南, Shandong 山东 and former Manager of Henan Province's 河南 Martial Arts Academy.  武術 wǔ3 shu4, 專科院校  zhuān2 kē2 yuàn4 xiào4 Academy.  However, his Liuhe Bafa is not as refined as that of Wu Yi Hui."

"He was from a scholar and official family and a man of good nature who had strong martial art talents. he was also well versed in calligraphy and painting, enjoying social life and travel.

“In 1896, his father took a government position in Pien liiang and his family moved there; he studied all styles of martial arts and weaponry, such as “Liu Ho Ba Fa, Three Positions Twelve Stances, and the earliest Taoist Sleeping Chi Kung of Chen Tuan.” Two years later, he studied under Msr.
