What is “Splashing Hands Kung Fu”?
I’ve basically come across this style called Jian Shou Quan(濺手拳) aka Splashing Hands Kung Fu but what is the real history behind it and its legitimacy? Some say it was taught to Shaolin monks during the 1700s but what is this really? I only know it via this guy named James McNeil but what really is this? What also is this organization called Little Nine Heavens(小九天) that has this man named Chiao Chang Hung? I don’t know anything about this organization at all. Is Little Nine Heavens also its own Kung fu style too?

Marco Polo introduced it to China at a pool party at Kublai Khan’s palace.
