Examples of southern systems include the Lohan Fist, Plum Blossom Fist, Hung Fist, Five Ancestors Fist, Shaolin Five Thunder Fist, Buddhist Patriot Fist, Dragon Fist, Tiger Fist, and Ann Hoi Fist. Some of the specialized skills include Iron Shirt / Golden Bell, Shaolin Saam Jin (Three Battle) Fist, Shaolin Thirty-Six Treasures, and Southern Shaolin One-Finger Chan. In addition to the arts in the main area of Putian, the coastal areas of Putian contain additional systems and skills, including Ox Horn Fist, Six Superior Steps, Plum Swords, and Four Gates Combat. In the mountain areas around Putian, there are Horse Fist, Bodhidharma's Cane, and Nine Treasures. Other systems that originated from the Shaolin temple such as Wing Chun, Southern Praying Mantis, and Bak Mei are no longer in or near Putian but became popular in places such as Guangdong and Guangxi Provinces, Hong Kong, Macao, Southeast Asia, the United States, and other places. Interestingly, these three systems were the main ones involved with the underground anti-Qing activities of that period. After the destruction of the temple, they disappeared from the area. Many of te referenced southern systems contain a combination of the characteristics of Northern Shaolin, the five elements theories, the Chinese meridian theories, and chi gung practices. Even though they contain all of these theories, they maintain their own characteristics of Putian martial arts. Examples of bridge training:
