Chapter 476: Dreams?

Lu Yu naturally also saw Zhang Yan's arrogance, and couldn't help but nod lightly when he heard this, and said, "It seems that I really didn't see the wrong person, you are indeed very talented in taming beasts." It's just that why do you think that taming animals is a trail?"

Zhang Yan was slightly angry in his heart, he didn't expect Lu Yu to still be entangled in this issue, he really looked down on me!

"Master! As I just said, when I was young, my dream was to become a race car driver, but now that I have grown up and matured, I don't have much hope of becoming a driver! Ever since I saw Master defeat a foreign high-ranking tea man for the first time in history, I have wholeheartedly wanted to become a tea man who can win glory for the country like Master! As for working in the circus, it is just one thing I rely on to make a living, please don't insult my dream!"

"Your dream?" Seeing that Zhang Yan was really angry, Lu Yu couldn't help but lift the corners of his mouth and said, "I don't care about your dreams!"

"What?!" Zhang Yan's face turned red, he didn't expect Lu Yu's words to be so direct!

Lu Yu shook his head and said, "The reason why I say this is because I found that you don't have a dream at all...... Or rather, you don't know what your dreams are!"

After a slight pause, he continued: "You said you dream of being a race car driver, and that's fine! But your dream of becoming a race car driver is based on the fact that your family is wealthy enough to support you in buying good cars and accessories, and that you can receive professional training...... I really don't understand, do you call this idea of relying entirely on external conditions a dream?"

"I ......," Zhang Yan was speechless for a while.

But Lu Yu obviously didn't give him a chance to argue, and said, "Then let's talk about your so-called other dream...... Well, let's just take it as a dream and become a tea man...... Hehe. ”

When the word "tea man" was spoken, Lu Yu smiled lightly and said: "I don't know why you want to become a tea man, or what is the driving force behind you to become a tea man, for your own heart, for a better life, or for the aura of honor attached to the word tea man...... I don't care about that. I just want to ask you, are you working towards this dream of your own?"

Zhang Yan's face softened slightly, and he nodded solemnly: "I've been working hard! I'm drinking tea every day except for work! Drink all kinds of different teas, and try to understand the different characteristics of various teas!"

Lu Yu smiled lightly: "You can't say that it's wrong to do this, but that's just for tea customers who want to know about tea...... Do you know why the Tea Man is a Tea Man?"

Zhang Yan groaned: "Because they know tea!"

Lu Yu shook his head: "Yes, because they understand tea! But understanding tea is not about the taste and brewing method of tea, but about understanding the true meaning of tea! Actually, I don't agree with what you said before...... In fact, all the professions in this world are an art! Or they are all a kind of Tao! The so-called Tao is the ultimate or best explanation of a kind of profession or work that seeks truth and refinement. ”

"No matter what the current world is, I don't want to comment on whether some of the current tea people are qualified to become tea people. But in my heart, only those who can understand the true meaning of tea and do it from their own hearts can truly be called tea people!"

Lu Yu looked at Zhang Yan and asked, "Since you have been drinking tea for so long, do you feel even a trace of the true meaning of tea?"

This question is very esoteric and obscure, maybe 10,000 people will have 10,000 different answers, what is the true meaning of tea? No one can really say clearly, because no one's original thoughts will be completely consistent.

Although Zhang Yan has resentment in his heart, he is also young and vigorous, but he is not stupid but has a very flexible mind and knows how to think.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Yan slowly shook his head and said, "I didn't feel it, but that doesn't mean that I won't be able to feel it in the future!"

Lu Yu raised his head and smiled: "That's right......! So the question goes back to before, do you think the tea man is really your dream?"

"This ......" Zhang Yan was stunned.

Lu Yu patted him on the shoulder and said, "You can think about it and give me an answer, if there is a good reason in your answer, I am completely willing to provide any help I can for your tea man journey...... But now, since you and I are commensurate with each other, I also don't want to see you bury your original talent!"

Zhang Yan muttered, "My talent? you mean...... Taming beasts?"

Lu Yu nodded: "You definitely have excellent talent in this regard! No one stipulates that people can only walk one path in their life, you can walk on two legs and make your path wider and wider." ”

At this moment, Zhang Yan was already moved by Lu Yu's words, but he still had some doubts and asked: "But Master, I have worked in the circus for so many years, and I think that even the best animal trainer in the troupe may not be as good as me in terms of taming animals......"

Lu Yu laughed and said: "Do you want to say that even the best animal trainers are just that, what can I teach you as a tea man in Lu Yu?"

This is exactly what Zhang Yan is thinking at the moment, but he doesn't dare to say it.

But now that Lu Yu took the initiative to say it, Zhang Yan also nodded by default: "Even if it is the tiger of the king of beasts, I can command ......."

Lu Yu glanced at Xiao Shen Xuan when he heard this, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

After laughing, Lu Yu suddenly pointed at Xiao Hei and said, "Zhang Yan, its name is Xiao Hei, and it is a wolf that we brought out in Enshi Mountain. ”

Zhang Yan didn't know why Lu Yu suddenly mentioned Xiao Hei, so he could only nod subconsciously.

Lu Yu said: "Xiaoxuan and I have been taking this guy with us, and this guy has also caused us a lot of trouble, and this guy is following you today!"

"Huh?" Zhang Yan was stunned.

Lu Yu smiled: "Didn't you say that you are already very strong in taming beasts and have a lot of experience? Then please help us train it so that it can be well-behaved in the future." ”

Zhang Yan finally understood what Lu Yu meant, and suddenly smiled: "This is simple! But Master, taming beasts requires some means, if I get hurt......"

Before he finished speaking, Lu Yu laughed: "Hahaha! You can use any means! Of course, the premise is that you have to be careful...... Forget it, even if I remind you now, you won't believe it. Let's make a bet!"

"Bet?"

Lu Yu nodded: "Yes, we will bet at this time tomorrow morning, if you can make Xiao Hei follow your instructions and make standardized actions, then the teacher will give you a famous tea tree that the world has never seen! But if not, you can temporarily put away your dreams that you haven't thought about for the time being, and honestly give me the boss...... Uh, teach me how to tame animals!"
