Defeating weaver’s shuttle & Immortal takes the hair
EarthDragon,
I hope this answered your question. The questions you asked sounded familar. I remembered I read it before on a post, but didn't remember where. I did a search and it was a post from Kevin Brazier (11-01-05). Some of the moves seems familar in the Zhai Yao sets. I am not 100% sure because my chinese is really bad. I sent a message to Kevin inquiring about which of the mantis family this is applicable to.

Defeating weaver’s shuttle.
There is the soft and hard method for this.
“The hard defeating of weaver’s shuttle.
I attack with my right hand.
He applies weaver’s shuttle.
I turn my right palm along his face(yang zhang shun mian). My left hand divides his left elbow. My right palm strikes his left shoulder.
The soft defeating of weaver’s shuttle.
He applies weaver’s shuttle.
I go along with him and apply a right groin strike in the rear mountain climbing posture.
Or, I adhere to his hand, hook down(nian shou gou xia) and apply the weaver’s shuttle.”
Grasping hand enter with chin na. Immortal takes the hair.
For the solo version we can simply follow the end of first Zhai Yao.
Here is the other way to apply it,
“Application of the adhering method.
His right hand firmly grasps my right hand or neck.
I seal with the left and do right bumping elbow(zhuang) to bend his fingers.
I swiftly apply the right inner forearm(ge zhou) and strike his neck.
He blocks my elbow.
Then I can do left seal right planting elbow. The head of my fist faces down and I apply inner forearm elbow to his chest.”
