Chapter 402: The sword is cold and the sword is cold

Saying that, he said to Eriko Koki and Michiko Sakiyagawa, who were trembling with fear, "Stupid thing, why don't you hurry up and do what Commissioner Yu instructs?" ”

The two women hurriedly put away the tea set and turned to leave. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Kuroda Intaro turned his head and smiled like a fox: "Commissioner Yu, you said that you have tasted our tea, but do you know that in our Great Japanese Tea Ceremony etiquette, guests should evaluate the tea utensils and tea flavors after tasting tea?" ”

After a little thought, Yu Zexuan replied, "Mr. Kurodai is right, I have never been exposed to Japanese culture. And it is really young and ignorant, can I ask Mr. a question first? ”

Commissioner Yu asked.

"I don't know what Mr. just mentioned, the so-called tasting in Japanese tea ceremony culture. Does this tasting ask the guests to tell the truth or lie? lest there be misunderstanding. ”

"Naturally, we want to tell the truth." Kuroda Intaro immediately replied: "But the evaluation must be reasonable. Don't talk about it, so as not to lose the origin of the Great Japanese Tea Ceremony. ”

"It's the origin of a tea ceremony. Well, the Japanese tea ceremony originated from tea tasting in the Tang Dynasty of China, and was formed thanks to the ritual of ordering tea in the Song Dynasty, which was transformed into matcha as the main form of tea ceremony by borrowing the style of tea fighting in the Song Dynasty. Mr. Eisai was sent to the Tang Dynasty to bring back to Japan after completing his studies in China, and Mr. Murata Zhuguang laid the basic ceremony.

Later, Zen Buddhism Jianzhen traveled east to Japan and brought Han Buddhism. Mr. Takeno Shaoou further promoted the unity of tea and Zen, and put forward the artistic conception of "Zen in tea" and "tea and Zen in one". Combine Zen theory with tea making, and advocate tea Zen to become a tea ceremony.

Then, Mr. Sen no Rikyu summed up the essence of the words "harmony, respect, purity, and silence" as the purpose of the Japanese tea ceremony, and promoted it to the people. Therefore, the Japanese tea ceremony was originally intended to be quiet and empty, simple and simple. ”

Speaking of this, he shook his head and smiled slightly, "But today is a pity." ”

"What's the pity? What do you mean? ”

"Do you really want to hear it?" Yu Zexuan smiled and said slowly.

"Please! But, hehe, it's against etiquette to talk about it. Don't blame me for turning my face. ”

"Well, the tea ceremony should first talk about the tea house. It has to be a quiet place. But you are hiding killers in all corners. Use a ninja to make a tea. Emptiness is contrary to the spirit of tea ceremony, respect, purity and silence. That's the first pity I said. The second thing about the tea ceremony is to pay attention to the tea set, and the second pity I want to say is the tea set ......,"

"Wait! Are you ignorant or ignorant? Do you recognize the tea set I used today? How dare you say that the tea set is incompatible? Unforgivable! You have to make it clear! As he spoke, he slammed the teacup in his hand to the ground and smashed it with a snap.

I only heard a hula, and the doors on both sides suddenly opened, and four sword-wielding warriors jumped into the room, two of them swished, and put the cold and shining steel knives in their hands on the back of Yu Zexuan's neck.

"Haha! I'm talking about a pity, a pity, a pity, in vain, but used in a haphazard manner. Isn't it a pity that all kinds of famous weapons are like pearls? Yu Zexuan secretly ran the Sumeru Vajra technique, with no surprise or joy on his face, no fear and no worries, and naturally and calmly talked.

"How to use it in a mess! Do you know the ritual of the tea ceremony? Kuroda Igtaro raised his hand slightly, and the two samurai withdrew their steel swords. But he still held his head high behind Yu Zexuan, and just waited for the signal to cut off Yu Zexuan's good head with a knife.

"I haven't talked about your tea ceremony yet. I'll start by saying that you ruined the tea set. The essence of a tea set is just a utensil. The soul of the tea ceremony is to convey the great wisdom of Zen and realize the Zen machine with utensils. The tools you use to boil water are the Hokkaido Sea Clay Tea Stove and the Kansai Ice Iron Kettle. Am I right? ”

"Well, you still have a bit of knowledge about kettles and stoves, and you're right. But it's not enough to wash away your gibberish comments. With that, Kuroda Intaro waved his hand, and the four samurai withdrew their swords and bowed out of the room. I saw Michiko Sakiyagawa and Eriko Koki coming in with a tea tray, and the paper doors on both sides closed again.

Yu Zexuan smiled slightly: "Speaking of knowledge, I have no problem teaching you some knowledge." lest you drink tea with me once and be laughed at later.

I'll start with the charcoal you use to boil water. You are fired steel charcoal from pine charcoal instead of high-quality hardwoods like red beech or hawthorn. Pine charcoal is soft and has a pine smoke smell, and is called putret charcoal. It is a good charcoal for heating, but it cannot be used to boil water to make tea. lest the smell of pine smoke enter the water and usurp the smell of tea.

Besides, the pot you use to make tea is a purple clay pot made by Mr. Dabin in the Ming Dynasty of China. The purple clay pot is expensive in being microporous, so it has a variety of superior properties. It is best used for tea.

But unfortunately it's used by you to brew matcha. Matcha is a powder that grinds tea to a very fine flake. A fine porcelain teapot should be used for brewing, and a purple clay pot should never be used. So as not to block the micropores of the purple clay pot with matcha powder. ”

Speaking of this, Yu Zexuan paused slightly. With very pity eyes, he looked at the Song Jianyao Tianmu glazed hat tea cup that was broken on the ground, and sighed.

After a long sigh, he continued, "Let's talk about the teacup you use." This tea cup is a Tianmu glazed tea cup fired by a Song Dynasty kiln in Jianyang County, Fujian, China. You must know that appreciating the glaze is different from the glaze. The difference is that the Yaobian glaze is to fill it with water or clear tea soup in the sun, and watch the infinite changes that the sunlight gives to the Yaobian glaze.

Yet, you're serving matcha, a cloudy bubble tea in your room. You think that you are a Japanese person who is the son of the sun, but you don't even know how to appreciate the beautiful glaze of the sun, you say, are you pitiful?

These tea sets, in terms of each utensil alone, are undoubtedly national treasures. It's a pity that you forced them to be chaotic and all together, except for showing luxury, there is no beauty of simplicity and silence at all. Wouldn't it be a pity to unjustly spoil these artifacts? Isn't it ridiculous? ”

"You, you, you!" Kuroda Itaro was furious and trembled with anger.

"Mr. Kurodai, please note that this is within your wabisha! Don't mess around! ”

"Good, good, good! Sure enough, there is insight. Kuroda Intaro gritted his teeth and forced down his anger: "Hmph, then you still accuse, what's wrong with my tea ceremony?" ”

"I've often heard people say that good medicine is bitter. It was Mr. Kurodai who insisted that I taste and comment in the truth, and I didn't want to lose the beauty of the silence. What a pity! I wonder if I really want to listen to it? ”

"You speak," Kuroda Intaro gritted his teeth and said hatefully, "you speak, yours, today, must be made clear!" I don't believe that you can find fault with my carefully trained tea masters! If you really say that the tea master is wrong, this useless thing is better than going to die! ”

"That's good," Yu Zexuan looked at Michiko Sakiyagawa and Eriko Koki, who were already lying on the ground, trembling, and almost paralyzed on the ground. Before he could speak, he sighed first: "Alas! The principle of tea, the meaning of Zen, is pure between the host and the guest. Why blame your own fault on other innocent people? ”
