Instruction 4 (Figures 9-615, 9-616) Both hands rise and fall with the body's up-and-down movement, but do not lift the right foot.

Instruction 5 (Figures 9-617, 9-618) Lift the right foot, then lift the left foot together, immediately lowering, left then right, while both hands rise and fall with the body (facing west).

Note: Strengthen the elasticity of the thighs and hips. Use slight tension in the arms and shoulders to coordinate with the upward and downward movement of the left leg, lifting the body as a single unit, then naturally land one foot after the other.

Yù Nǚ Chuān Suō

Instruction 1 (Figures 9-619, 9-620) Bring both hands together and lift the right leg, with the left elbow bent backward, the right hand forward, and the right leg forward simultaneously, exerting force.

Instruction 2 (Figures 9-621 to 9-624) The right foot lands, the left foot leaps forward one large step, the body turns right, the left hand follows the forward push, the body continues to turn right 270 degrees, the left foot lands, then the right foot turns to the right and steps sideways, the right hand is placed in front of the right waist, the left hand is placed to the left.

Note:
1. This posture is composed of two movements combined into one. The key is to connect the three steps: the right foot leaps half a step, the left foot leaps one large step, and the right foot steps sideways. These three steps must be completed in sequence, like a needle quickly passing through two layers of fabric. This is a real "prowl" move, different from the "prowl" move in the Jade Woman's "corner turn" technique.
2. This posture resembles a special three-step jump, completed by rotating the body during the three steps; in terms of striking, it is used to penetrate an opponent's guard, emerging from an offensive or defensive posture.
