Chapter 247: The Dead Are Afraid and the Living Are Returned
Although there was no fire in the stove, the water poured out was steaming hot, and if I hadn't reached out and touched the sea bowl, my tentacles were cold, and I almost thought it was really boiling water!
The sea bowl is the kind of rough black glazed bowl, and the bottom part is the primary color of earthy yellow, this bowl is really old enough, I remember this kind of bowl is very old, and the old man and old lady in our village may still see it in their house. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At the bottom of the bowl, a small handful of earthy yellow tea leaves have already been placed, and the tea leaves are particularly fragrant, but they don't look like leaves when you look closely, but like tree roots that have been cut very neatly.
The water in the old lady's hand went down, and the tea at the bottom of the bowl exuded a burst of tempting fragrance, a bit like the aroma of grass after a heavy rain, with a slight fishy smell of earth, and a little green smell of bamboo leaves, which smelled particularly good.
I don't know why, but the smell makes people feel comfortable, the limbs and bones are as if they have just run a thousand meters, the blood and qi are running, and the body is extremely relaxed.
The old lady saw that none of us moved, so she grinned toothlessly and said, "Please drink tea objectively! The small shop is in a remote place, and there are no good teas, these are the ancient teas that I picked and fried with my own hands, everyone try them!"
"Oh, thank you, thank you!" I waved my hand and smiled, "Thank you, Grandma, we just came out with a full meal and drink!
Yu Wenjing held the sea bowl, leaned her nose over to smell the smell, and exclaimed, "Grandma, what is the name of your ancient tea?"
"This tea is called Dead Man Fear. The old lady laughed, "But it's a good thing!"
"Ahh
Hei Ya cautiously took out three five emperor coins from his pocket and put them on the table, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, and he smiled lightly, "A few of us are still in a hurry, so we won't bother anymore, this is your tea money, please be sure to smile!"
After saying that, he took the lead in getting up and saying goodbye, I stood up after him, bowed slightly to the old lady and thanked him, and pulled Yu Wenjing, who was full of reluctance, to come out.
"Brother Ya, that old lady is kind and kind, she doesn't look like a ghost! I don't think she's a bad person!" Yu Wenjing was still thinking about the quiet fragrance of tea, and couldn't help complaining, "Although the name of that tea is ugly, it smells really good! I regret a little that I didn't taste what it tastes like!"
"Although there is no ghostly spirit, but there is no human taste! Could it be a demon? It is too similar......" I thought for a moment and said, "I always feel that something is wrong, this house seems to appear just to stop us, is it possible to sell us a few bowls of tea?"
After walking for a while, a small house appeared in front of us, which was exactly the same as the thatched house before, and a bean-like light was lit in the distance, which seemed to attract us to walk in its direction.
After walking a few steps, it was the thatched house again, Yu Wenjing was a little scared now, and muttered, "Did we encounter a ghost, a ghost hitting the wall?"
"I'm afraid it's a ghost, it seems that it won't work if you don't go in and drink a cup of tea!" Hei Ya frowned and waved at us, "Let's go, there is this time!"
When we walked into the small thatched house, the old woman was still standing in front of the door waiting for us, but there was another old man beside her!
This old man is slightly fat, slightly blessed, with a wide mouth and big ears, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he should belong to the handsome guy when he is young. He was about the same age as the old lady, his sideburns were all white, his eyebrows were very long, and they floated to the ears, and they were pure white, without a trace of variegation, his white beard hung down to his chest, his back was slightly hunched, and he carried a basket for collecting medicine behind him, and he held a small hoe in his hand!
There were a lot of herbs in the basket behind him, and it seemed that he had just come back from collecting medicine, but I took a closer look at his two feet, and his shoes and socks were clean and clean, not to mention the soil, and there was not even a mud mark!
Is this like going up the mountain to collect medicine?
When we were children, we also went up to the mountains to dig medicine, and when we came down, no matter how clean our clothes, pants and shoes were, they had to be covered with mud and dust, and there were even a lot of weeds and dead branches.
I couldn't help but sneer in my heart, it seems that no matter how good the acting is, it can't catch up with the real props!
"The three guest officers have come from afar, and I have lost sight of the old man! Please come in and have a cup of tea!" The old man put down the medicine basket, then took out a handful of unknown grass from it, handed it to the old lady and said, "Go, boil this herb, and give it to the three guests!"
"All right, please come in!" said the old lady, as if she had never seen us before.
The old lady cleaned the herbs given by the old man, threw them into the big copper kettle, and then sat the pot on the stove, and then stuffed a handful of firewood into the stove, and the fire with a faint blue light came out, and after a while, the lid of the copper kettle sounded, and the room was full of strange herbs.
The old lady brought the big copper kettle over again, poured the herb water on the "dead man is afraid" tea, and suddenly a strange smell emanated, and the whole tea turned into a strange blue-purple, like the juice squeezed out of the purple cabbage, slightly viscous, and the taste was weird.
"Grandma, what kind of herb is this?" Yu Wenjing looked at the strange tea, saying that she didn't dare to touch it again.
"This grass is called the return of the living!" the old lady smiled, "Drink it, it's all good things, it's not for you, the old man is reluctant to give it to others!"
Heiya and I looked at each other, the old lady seems to have something to say, I really don't know if it's friend or foe, can this tea be drunk, will it be over?
"Auntie, this is your tea money, thank you for entertaining!" Hei Ya secretly bit his index finger, smeared the blood on the Five Emperors coin, handed it to the old lady, and looked at her with a smile if she dared to reach out to take it.
If this old lady is a ghost, no matter how advanced the Tao is, no matter how well the ghost is hidden, if he takes the five emperors' money, he will show some flaws!
I was sweating in my heart, my hand had reached into my pocket to hold the snake shadow, ready to turn my face at any time and fight with the old witch, but I didn't expect the old lady to take the five emperors' money with a natural expression, and while thanking her, she inadvertently put it into her pocket, and said with a smile, "Please use tea!"
This time Heiya was a little embarrassed, in order to hide the embarrassment, he cleared his throat, picked up the sea bowl and took a sip of tea, I couldn't help frowning, I thought he was poisoned, he stood up, and was about to show the snake shadow in his hand, when he heard Heiya whisper, "It's so fragrant, this medicinal tea!"
it!
Now it's my turn to be embarrassed!(To be continued.) )
