"Hey, Lolo, it's not big or small. Seeing that Luo Luo did not politely ask about Fang Ming's parents, Xing Kaishan immediately scolded him.

"People just feel kind, they can't help but ask!" Yin Luoluo pouted to show dissatisfaction.

Yin Luoluo's appearance also made Xing Kaishan at a loss, he didn't dare to coax or scold. I could only stammer: "I ...... This ......"

Yin Yuhan glanced at Xing Kaishan, and then walked towards Luo Luo.

"You see that our family Luo Luo has been wronged, knowing that our family Luo Luo is a warm-hearted person, I was a little excited when I heard that the adults and we were fellow villagers. Yin Yuhan touched Yin Luoluo's head and comforted: "Kaishan is not intentional, don't be wronged." ”

"Hmph, Uncle Stink. Yin Luoluo squeezed the bridge of his nose at Xing Kaishan, and then took Yin Yuhan's hand and said, "Let's go, sister, let's go cook." Ignore this stinky uncle. ”

Yin Yuhan could only be helplessly held by the hand and go with him.

It wasn't until he was dragged out of the door that he reluctantly turned around and said, "That...... My lord, Kaishan, let's go to the kitchen first. ”

"Well, okay! Fang Ming nodded.

And Xing Kaishan could only nod helplessly, after all, he also knew the "felony" he had just committed. According to this posture, Yin Luoluo will definitely ignore him, and he will not let Yin Yuhan ignore him. So he could only remain silent.

Obviously, now, silence is the greatest comfort to Lolo.

After the two girls went out and walked away, Xing Kaishan said politely: "My lord, please take a seat." ”

At this time, Fang Ming found that the black medicine egg placed on the table had disappeared along with Shao Tuo.

Xing Kaishan also accurately captured this look.

"Xiaomin asked Shaotuo to take the black medicine egg to the warehouse for preservation, do you think it's still appropriate?"

"This ...... Uncle Xing disposed of it at will. ”

"Haha, my lord, my lord, it's so close to the people. Xing Kaishan said with a smile, his voice was a little loud, as if he had let go a lot. "My lord, there is nothing else in this mine, but there is no shortage of tea. Adults can have a good taste of this Dongshan mine's unique tea today-oiled tea. ”

"Oil-smeared tea, is it a specialty of this mine?" Fang Ming couldn't help but be interested.

"Haha! yes, yes. Xing Kaishan said proudly: "Your Excellency should have also seen the hematite content of the ore here." There is no grass growing in this mine for several miles, all of which are affected by this iron ore. ”

"That'...... Uncle Xing, what do you mean by 'oiled tea'......"

"Rong Xiaomin will sell it first, and then Xiaomin will introduce it to you after the tea is brewed. I've asked Shao Tuo to stop by and go to the kitchen to get hot water, my lord, wait a minute. ”

After Xing Kaishan finished speaking, he turned around and took a wooden box on the bookshelf against the wall. The wooden box is placed upside down, and there are some plum blossoms painted on the surface of the box.

"There is a lot of humidity in the mountains, and there is no grass growing in a radius of one mile, but it can't withstand the dew erosion of this night. No matter how good the tea is, it won't last for a few days. So if you put something, you have to put it upside down in boxes, pots, and basins to prevent moisture. ”

"It turns out that living in the mountains has so many skills. ”

"It's all about living for a long time and accumulating experience. Xing Kaishan said and opened the box. grabbed a handful of the contents of the box and handed it to Fang Ming. "Look, my lord, this is a fried oiled tea. ”

Fang Ming took the thing and found that it was just a few dark leaves. The foliar surface of the leaves is oily, and the mesophyll is thick, as if dipped in a thick layer of ink.

The strange thing is that Xing Kaishan obviously said that it was fried. But each leaf is very stretched as a whole, how can there be a little bit of dehydration after the tea leaves are fried or dried?

This is beyond Fang Ming's cognition.

"Do you have to brew this oiled tea while it's fresh?" Fang Ming asked puzzled.

"Haha, this is already dry tea leaves that can't be dried anymore, even if you fry them in a red-hot iron pot, they won't be drier than this. Xing Kaishan introduced Fang Ming like teaching children to read.

At this time, Shao Tuo also came back with a kettle after getting hot water.

"Hehe, is the mine owner studying this 'iron soul' with adults?" said Shao Tuo with a smile.

"'Iron Resurrection'?" Fang Ming was puzzled.

"Hehe, adults will know what this 'iron soul' is in a while. After Shaotuo finished speaking, he poured water.

As soon as he approached the square table with the copper kettle full of boiling water, Fang Ming felt the blazing temperature.

When the water is actually poured out, the steaming heat is a testament to the temperature of the water.

When Shao Tuo poured the water, Xing Kaishan said with a smile: "Can you try to brew a bowl yourself?"

"Did you sprinkle it directly into the bowl?" Fang Ming asked.

Xing Kaishan smiled and nodded.

Fang Ming obediently pinched a piece, but the moment he picked it up, the leaves that looked fresh and tenacious actually shattered into two halves with a "click".

Fang Ming looked at the two halves of the leaves in surprise, as if he had seen the sow go up the tree with his own eyes.

"Haha, sir. Xiaomin didn't lie to you! This oiled tea is like this after it is cooked and dried. Xing Kaishan laughed.

"This tea ...... Looking at the color, it is indeed perfect, but shouldn't the leaves be rolled after the roasted tea is fried?" Fang Ming asked with a blank face: "Or does this roasted tea master have any special techniques or skills?" ”

Fang Ming said, crushing the two halves of the leaves from the middle, and the result was still as crispy as ever. This also further confirms Xing Kaishan's statement of roasted tea.

"Hehe, mine owner, you can introduce the fairy grass of our Dongshan mine to the adults!" Shao Tuo couldn't help but say.

After Shao Tuo finished speaking, Xing Kaishan finally took out a leaf from the box. Without saying a word, he threw it directly into the bowl.

In an instant, the leaves are like a drop of ink dripping on the blue lake, melting and spreading in the water in an instant.

But the color is a tender green that has nothing to do with the appearance.

Seeing this, Fang Ming couldn't help but exclaim: "This is really tea!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the black leaves in the bowl spun inexplicably, and then turned into tumbling. It's like a leaky fish maw, dying in pain in boiling water.

Soon, without waiting for Fang Ming to ask the reason. This so-called "oiled tea" turned into a ball in the tumble, and the color also changed to dark green.

Three times five divided by two, turned into a fake tea leaves.

"This ...... Is this the true meaning of the name 'Oiled Tea'?" Fang Ming looked at the tea leaves in the bowl, and then at the few pieces in his hand that seemed to have been dipped in black oil, as if he suddenly understood.

But he was a little puzzled and said, "What ......is the 'Iron Soul'?"

Xing Kaishan didn't directly answer Fang Ming's question, but pointed to the curly leaf tea in the bowl and said, "My lord, do you believe that this thing looks like this before it was picked?"

"Are you saying that the tea leaves on the tea tree are rolled leaves, and the leaves are not stretched until they are fried!"

"That's right!" Xing Kaishan nodded meaningfully.

"Your Excellency, you'll have to read it all. Although this 'iron' has faded and gone, this 'soul' has not yet come out!"

"Resurrection!"

"Yes. Shao Tuo smiled and nodded.

Not long after Shao Tuo finished speaking, the oiled tea in the bowl actually moved again. Like tea leaves, it absorbs water in the tender green tea and expands until it unfolds.

At the moment when it was fully unfolded, Fang Ming was surprised to find that only a "skeleton" was left of the tea leaves.

It is called a skeleton because the mesophyll part of the leaf is gone. Only a whole vein floats on the water.

"This ...... This tea!" Fang Ming said in surprise.

"Your Excellency, you don't think it's like an out-of-body experience. Shaotuo said suggestively.

"Soul ...... What a strong life! For the barrenness, for the thirst to curl up, for the blazing heat, for the false color of the sun, so many difficulties have been carried over, but at last they melt into the clear water. Fang Ming picked up the tea leaves and stroked the rough veins.

That's why. Only this kind of living creature can survive within a radius of one mile. Xing Kaishan said sadly. "It's like the 'resurrection grass' in the rocky depression of the barren mountain, twisting and growing in the crevices, even if it doesn't rain for several months, it can 'eat and drink' in the humid air. It is like pig iron in a furnace, no matter how hard it is, it must be melted. ”

Shao Tuo continued Xing Kaishan's words: "Iron is also grass, Gu is also known as iron to return the soul." ”
