Chapter 109: Just Because of Tea
It is a mountain gate that is usually open day and night, rain or shine.
At this point, it is tightly closed.
The fallen leaves on the steps have not been swept, and the water marks are still there.
It only adds a hint of ruin.
If it weren't for Lu Yu, he had been here last night.
I'm afraid that I think that Leifeng Temple has already been empty!
Hou Li scratched his head: "It's weird! The temple is usually not closed?"
Xiao Shen Xuan walked to the door even more angrily.
Stretched out his little hand and slapped it vigorously.
"Open the door! Smelly monk, open the door! Yesterday's fight is not over yet!"
But no matter how she knocks on the door and calls.
The temple gate is still silent!
Lu Yu smiled softly and said lightly: "It seems that this Xuanbei Zen Master has long expected that I will come today. ”
Hou Li was stunned for a moment and asked, "Brother, do you mean that Zen Master Xuanbei deliberately closed the door to hide from us?"
"Wouldn't it? Didn't you say that the masters of Leifeng Temple were very powerful?"
Lu Yu did not explain.
Instead, he looked left and right.
Suddenly, his eyes fell on one place and he asked, "Monkey, how can there be a grass hut outside the temple?"
I didn't pay attention to the heavy wind and rain last night.
Lu Yu only found out today.
It's not far from the gate of Leifeng Temple.
There was a hut made of wood and thatch.
And the hut is apparently often tended.
There was no obvious dilapidated appearance in the surroundings.
……
Hou Li also turned his head to look.
Then he smiled and said, "Brother is talking about this grass shed?"
"This hut was there before my father was born!"
"I've been playing in there!"
"My father listened to my grandfather. ”
"This grass hut is where an old monk lives!"
"At that time, there were wars and bandits, and outsiders were not allowed to enter the temple. ”
"The old monk built this straw hut......"
In Houli's long-winded narrative.
Lu Yu finally understood the general situation.
It was a time of war.
The warrior monks in Leifeng Temple are in order to protect themselves.
The temple gate is closed to prevent all contact with the outside world.
It was at that time.
An old monk came to Leifeng Temple to ask for a pending order to enter the temple.
Because he was not wearing a monk's robe.
And it coincides with the mountain bandits coveting the Zen temple and constantly cruising around.
So the old monk's request was denied.
But the old monk did not leave.
Instead, he risked being intercepted and killed by mountain bandits.
A straw hut was built outside the temple to live.
It's a full month.
When the old monk ran out of grain and rice and was dying.
The monks of Leifeng Temple finally couldn't bear it.
Come out and see you.
The specific content of the talks between the two sides has long been out of reach.
But there has always been a conversation at the foot of Zhenlei Mountain.
The monk of Leifeng Temple asked: "The mountains and rivers are vast, and the famous mountains and ancient temples are like clouds, why does the senior brother stick to the Leifeng Temple, which is full of bandits?"
The old monk replied with three words......
"Just because of the tea. ”
So.
Local mountain tea farmers.
They all call this grass shed in front of Leifeng Temple "tea shed".
It's just that this matter has been going on for a long time.
It has long been forgotten.
If it weren't for the family of a family like Houli, whose ancestors lived here.
I'm afraid that even this "tea shed" has been completely forgotten.
……
"Just because ...... Tea!"
Lu Yu muttered and repeated these three words.
When I looked at the straw hut again.
Already with a sigh on his face.
He was obsessed with tea, and he also listened to the Xuan Ku host talk about the Earthquake Thunder Mountain.
This story has been integrated almost in the tea room!
If that's as expected, it's good.
The old monk who insisted on living in front of Leifeng Temple.
It should be the "paid" monk who once planted tea on the top of Cheyun Mountain!
Tea never leaves the homeland.
The monks are accompanied by tea all day long.
I think I know this very well.
He is immortal for the tea root.
Willing to tie the grass shed withered car cloud mountain near the Leifeng Temple.
So much so that he almost died of hunger and cold.
Such feelings and courage to love tea and be obsessed with tea.
Although after a hundred years of vicissitudes of ups and downs.
still deeply moved Lu Yu.
I'm afraid that's because of that.
The monks of Leifeng Temple will keep and repair this grass hut from time to time.
In a sense.
This thatched hut is for the monks of Leifeng Temple.
Even for all the tea people in this world.
It is a monument that will never be erased!
Come to think of this.
Lu Yu suddenly took a deep breath.
Walk slowly to the front of the hut.
Take a deep bow!
Seeing this, Hou Li couldn't help asking, "Brother, what are you doing here?"
Lu Yu slowly straightened up and smiled slightly: "I'm paying tribute to a real tea man." ”
Let's talk about it.
He said no more, and went straight into the hut.
The grass shed is not big.
A boulder that was used as a bed already took up more than half of it.
The rest of the small space.
There are also some smaller stones, which seem to be used as stone tables and stone benches.
Nothing else.
Due to the wind and rain last night, there was a lot of dampness in the shed.
……
Lu Yu looked left and right.
I picked a dry stone and sat down.
Take out a cigarette and light it.
Hou Li and Xiao Shen Xuan also followed.
I saw Lu Yu smoking leisurely.
Xiao Shen Xuan asked with some dissatisfaction: "Lu Yu, you don't want to think of a way if the stinky monk doesn't open the door?"
Lu Yu smiled: "If they don't open the door, I'll wait for them to open the door!"
Hou Li was stunned: "Brother, you mean we just wait here?"
Lu Yu shook his head slightly: "It's not us, it's me." ”
As he spoke, he suddenly stretched.
"This tea shed is good, I live here today. ”
"Live here?!"
Hou Li and Xiao Shen Xuan exclaimed almost at the same time.
Did you hear that right?
Lu Yu actually wants to live in this leaky broken grass shed?!
Although it is only autumn now.
But there is already a chill in the mountains!
Besides, it just rained heavily yesterday.
Living here is almost the same as sleeping in the wilderness!
Lu Yu didn't feel the slightest inappropriateness.
He smiled: "The scenery here is very good!"
It's not a matter of the scenery, is it?!
Hou Li and Xiao Shen Xuan covered their faces at the same time.
What the hell is Lu Yu thinking?!
……
But no matter what they say.
Lu Yu will not change his decision.
Even an old monk from more than a hundred years ago can live.
What reason does I have for Lu Yu not to live?
He knows better than anyone.
There are many ways to get tea from Leifeng Temple.
But there is only one way to convince the monks of Leifeng Temple!
Whether it's for the tea people's qualification assessment.
Or to prevent the famous tea from continuing to be dusty.
Lu Yu must be recognized by Zen Master Xuanbei and the monks of Leifeng Temple!
Hou Li saw that he couldn't persuade Lu Yu.
I had to shake my head helplessly.
Xiao Shen Xuan simply gave up persuasion.
Cross your legs and sit on the stone bed!
Lu Yu was stunned: "What are you doing here?"
Xiao Shen Xuan raised her little face and said, "Of course I live here with you!"
Lu Yu smiled bitterly: "Don't make trouble! Your body is just right, what should you do if you catch a cold again?"
Xiao Shen Xuan snorted and said, "I don't care! I'm going to protect you here!"
"Protect me?!" Lu Yu looked confused.
Xiao Shen Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, the stinky monks of Leifeng Temple can all do martial arts!"
"You're so weak, you can't beat them!"
"What if they see that you don't like you and come out and beat you up, and I'm not there?"
"So I must stay and protect you!"
Burst!
I'm a weak chicken in the eyes of the little girl?!
Lu Yu shook his head with a little crying and laughing.
But he also knows Xiao Shen Xuan's temper.
Even if you get rid of her now, I'm afraid she'll come back when it's dark.
So he said no more.
Turn your head and ask Holly to help prepare some application stuff.
Hou Li was even more helpless.
Before going down the mountain, he asked depressedly, "Brother, what are you for?"
Lu Yu looked up at the clear blue sky and white clouds.
Suddenly smiled: "It's just because of the tea." ”
