    Wen Quan history
    Wen Quan is practiced in Ningde prefecture's Jiaocheng district.
    This style contains many boxing forms which are divided into Wai Wen Quan "Outer Wen Quan" and Nei Wen Quan "Inner Wen Quan" groupings.
    Today the term Nei Wen Quan is often used for the style as a whole, especially by practitioners in the Jiaocheng district.
    This style dates to the Qing / Republican era transition period and was founded by Yang Zhongchen, better known as Yang Qinhou, of Chixi town's Yangcuo neighborhood, in Ningde prefecture's Jiaocheng district.
    Yang Qinhou was taught martial arts as a child by his father Yang Desheng, a local martial artist known for his strength.
    According to tradition Yang Desheng had a game he would use for assessing people's skill to find martial artists better than himself to learn from. He would pinch a stack of coins between his fingers and offer them to anyone who could take them from his hand. Being renowned for his grip strength none of the local teachers were able to remove the coins.
    One night a wandering monk in his 60's came begging at their door.
    Yang Desheng let him inside and pulled out a large stack of coins placing them between his fingers. He offered the coins to the monk if he could remove them from his hands. The instant Yang put his hand out the monk sent the coins scattering around the room with a single finger in a blindingly fast whipping motion.
    He then walked over to the family's huge earthenware mortar weighing around 100 lbs and held it in one hand with his arm stretched out straight at shoulder level for some time without showing any sign of strain or effort.
    Seeing his skill and strength Yang Desheng begged the monk to teach him and his son.
    The monk stayed with the Yang family for 3 years spending each day training Yang Desheng and his son Yang Qinhou.
    The martial arts practiced by the monk focused on hand speed, evasive footwork, and smooth effortless appearing application of strength. Both his father's methods and the monk's also put a large amount of emphasis on grip strength and hand and finger conditioning.
    After 3 years the monk announced he was leaving, saying he preferred to travel and had only stayed three years because he admired Yang Desheng and his son for their honesty and for how hard they practiced.
    After that Yang Qinhou continued to practice the methods of his father and the monk as well as traveling around northern Fujian to visit and exchange skills with other martial artists.
    He was said to have always been willing to learn and to gain new knowledge would seek out any master who he heard had a high level of skill.
    He eventually became one of the most famous masters of the republican period in Ningde prefecture.
    He was known for his evasive footwork and was said to have once beaten a challenger by saying that instead of fighting he would concede defeat if the man could lay a single finger on him or the material of his clothes. According to tradition the match ended with the challenger falling in a well.
    He was also famous for his special finger striking skill of "Five Fingers Piercing the Sun" which was said to have the speed of lightning and with which he could break inch thick flagstone slabs.
    He taught many people and his arts are still practiced among the Yang clan in Chixi's Yangcuo neighborhood.
    His style also spread into various other parts of Ningde where it enjoyed a high reputation and into neighboring areas of adjacent prefectures.

    Their hand remained true to martial intent and eschewed the lure of "public performance" additions. Nice. Thanks for putting it up.

      Well not this specific style which can only be traced back to the very early 20th century.
      But in a general sense yes, Okinawan martial arts are largely based on Min Dong folk boxing styles.
