"Pu'er, shouldn't the water be as warm as possible?" Seeing Yun Jiu's movements, Qi Jueshi asked with some puzzlement. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Pu-erh is a fully fermented black tea, and the longer it ages, the more flavorful it becomes.
Generally, ordinary Pu'er has not been for more than ten years, and it has no taste at all, let alone charm.
Black tea even needs to be boiled to bring out the true taste of the tea.
Qi Jueshi is an old tea guest, so he naturally knows this. Yun Jiu, this Pu'er, he drank it once yesterday, although it was said to be ruined, and there was no rhyme, but that kind of taste was something that the tea outside couldn't experience at all.
Yun Jiu looked at him and smiled, "Pu'er should indeed be as hot as possible when the water temperature is. However, different teapots, different water temperatures, and even different people, different moods, and different environments produce different tastes. This is like facing the same disease, different doctors, prescriptions and treatment methods are different. Does Mr. Qi think so? ”
Hearing this, Qi Jueshi couldn't help but be stunned.
Yun Jiu didn't speak again, and kept putting his hand on the top of the kettle to feel the temperature of the water.
It took several minutes before he lifted the pot, and instead of brewing the pu'er directly inside the teapot, he poured hot water on the outside of the pot first.
Looking at the water vapor rising when the hot water was cold, Qi Jueshi couldn't help but be stunned.
Yun Jiu poured the teapot for a while, and then lifted the lid of the teapot and brewed the tea inside.
Wait until the water inside is sufficient, cover the pot, and then pour some hot water on the outside before giving up.
Then immediately the teapot was picked up, and all the tea was poured into the sea of tea, which then rushed towards the cups on the tea tray.
The whole action of washing tea was smooth, which made Qi Jueshi feel a little surprised, such a young man, who usually does not have much love for tea, can actually have such a technique. What's more, there is no sense of disharmony in the whole process.
After washing the tea, Yun Jiu lifted the kettle again, pointed it towards the teapot, and then poured hot water on the outside after closing the lid on the outside. I waited until most of the water on the surface of the teapot had dried up and there were no wet traces, and then I took the pot in my hand and poured the tea in the pot into the sea of tea.
A faint fragrance entered Qi Jueshi's nose.
Yun Jiu picked up the sea of tea, poured seven points full of each of the two teacups, and used the black tea clip that had been washed just now to hold the position above the teacup where there was no tea, and gently handed it to Qi Jueshi, motioning for him to taste it.
Looking at this method, the young man in front of him really has a deep study of tea.
The process is smooth, natural and harmonious, not to mention, even the rules, there is no mistake. Tea is full of seven points, this is the rule. If it's too full, it means that the host doesn't welcome guests! Obviously, he was not welcomed by Yun Jiu, but when he was drinking tea and tasting tea, his mentality became very peaceful.
You don't even have to touch the teacup with your hands during the whole process.
The index finger is bent inward, pinching the middle of the teacup with his thumb and middle finger, Qi Jueshi brings the cup to the front, first look at the color of the soup, this is not as deep as the Pu'er soup sold in other outside markets, the heart is secretly strange, but the face has not changed in the slightest, put it to the end of the nose, except for a little refreshing aroma, there is no strong fragrance.
As soon as he entered his mouth, a slippery feeling first entered the depths of his brain through his tongue, followed by a smell that could not tell whether it was incense or something in his mouth, and the pores of the whole person opened up at this moment! The faint aroma that I was asking about was not felt at all.
This is the rhyme, the unique rhyme of Pu'er.
Even, Qi Jueshi felt that he had drunk the taste of time, this feeling, he knew in his heart, but he couldn't describe it in words.
You can only understand, not speak, nothing more than that!
The tongue stirred gently, and the flavor became thicker in the mouth, and I was reluctant to swallow it for a long time.
"Good tea!"
After swallowing, he felt the sweetness of the base of his tongue beginning to rise towards the entire mouth, Qi Jueshi closed his eyes, opened them for a long time, and couldn't help but praise it.
Yun Jiu's expression did not change in the slightest.
After pouring him a full seven points, Yun Jiu began to speak, "How do you feel on your body?" ”
"The pores are spread out, and the whole body is relaxed."
"Since ancient times, tea has the effect of dredging the meridians. There are many ancient medical classics, all of which are recorded. However, the tea of famous mountains and rivers is rare for ordinary people. It is a thing that absorbs the essence of heaven and earth, and the world uses it to cure diseases and regulate the body, and it also has that effect......" Yun Jiu's understanding of tea made Qi Jueshi a little confused.
Did he mean tea, or did he mean medicine?
"Huang Tingjing" believes that the human body is a coherent network with the three palaces and three fields as the center, and the blood, essence, and qi are all circulating in this network, and if it is smooth, the human body will be healthy, and life will be vigorous, and if it is stagnant, it will be sick and sick...... Combined with the five visceral gods of the Daomen and the theory of the five elements of yin and yang, yin and yang run and transform in the internal organs, and the same is true of the five elements......"
When Qi Jueshi heard this, he couldn't help but sit upright, Yun Jiu was clearly teaching him the Taoist theory he wanted to know.
How did he know that Yun Jiu was just casually talking?
"Healing people is no different from the method of making tea. Different means will eventually make the taste of this tea come out, but the taste that comes out is different......" Yun Jiu once again pulled the topic to tea.
Qi Jueshi nodded thoughtfully.
Yun Jiu said as he drank tea, and every cup was drunk in one go.
At the same time, after a while, lift the churning kettle, cool it down, and then pour it over the outside of the teapot, and when you are done, put the kettle on top of the stove.
And Qi Jueshi went to taste it lightly.
In the end, I found that this tea, after it was cold, lost its original taste.
The slippery sensation on the tongue has not changed, but the unpredictable and evocative rhyme is gone.
Seeing that Yun Jiu was brewing again, it was still the same method, Qi Jueshi couldn't help but be a little curious, "Mr. Yun, why do you keep watering the outside of the teapot?" Does it work to keep the temperature inside the pot? ”
Even if such a question was raised, he thought that Yun Jiu would not answer.
Unexpectedly, Yun Jiu said lightly, "The hot water watering pot is to maintain the temperature in the pot, so that the taste of the tea leaves in the teapot can be released and circulated in the pot, so as to transform into a rhyme." A hundred years of Pu'er, what you drink is just a rhyme, not a taste...... If the water has been in the pot for a long time and the temperature is too high, the soup is really beautiful and the taste is strong at first, but the rhyme can't come out, and even after three or two brews, the tea will not work. The water temperature is too high, and the taste of the tea is ......"
Yun Jiu didn't have much time to drink tea before, otherwise he would have been able to know that the tea in it would not face the embarrassment of almost starving to death if he sold a piece of it.
These words were just what the old man said when he used yellow wattle strips to force Xiao Yunjiu to make him tea.
"This is like the needle on Mrs. Yang's body? Although it prevents the flow of essence, qi and blood between the meridians, it makes subtle changes in the body? The old man suddenly asked at Yun Jiu.
Yun Jiu's hand holding the pot trembled.
Looking at Qi Jueshi, "Can you feel it?" ”
"Through the pulse, you can have a vague feeling." Qi Jueshi nodded.
If you didn't feel it, you wouldn't have been able to say it.
"The needle does not completely block the exchange between the meridians, but the exchange operation is only necessary to maintain the minimum physical exertion. If the old lady is sober, the consumption of the whole person, the supply in the body is not enough, just like the warehouse, itself is empty, and in the face of the swarming hungry people, once she rushes in and finds that it cannot solve their hunger problem, it will eventually destroy the entire warehouse. "Yun Jiu is also upright.
There is not the slightest concealment at all.
Although he never promised Qi Jue to pass on anything to him, the two discussed this, but it was not against the rules.
Qi Jueshi felt that these metaphors of Yun Jiu were very vivid.
Yun Jiu's words made those things that puzzled him disappear in an instant.
These theories alone were enough for him to study for a long time.
"Every brew of tea tastes different, and the water temperature and time required are also different. Just like curing a disease, different stages, treatment methods, and drugs are different. Once the five elements of yin and yang in the body are balanced, and the whole body's essence, qi and blood flow smoothly, it will be completely cured. ”
"Since Mr. Yun has this means, why don't you hang the pot to help the world?" Qi Jueshi asked with some curiosity.
Seeing Yun Jiu's face change after his words, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
After a long time, Yun Jiucai said, "Although I have read a lot of medical books, understood countless theories, and treated diseases and saved people, I have never practiced it. ”
These words completely surprised Qi Jueshi.
Just reading medical books and classics to have such a means, if you can use it and accumulate more experience, then what is it?
For Yun Jiu's calmness, he also secretly admired.
If you are another young man, even if you don't answer or find other reasons, you won't admit that he hasn't practiced it at all.
"There are many opportunities for practice," Qi Jueshi didn't know how to answer Yun Jiu......'s words.
Yun Jiu's answer was a big surprise to him, "Why do you want to practice?" Healing the sick and saving people is the doctor's business. I know this just to gain a deeper understanding of something. Hanging pots help the world, so what does it have to do with me? How is the world to me, not to me, but to me? Thousands of people in the world, if you can save one, can you get them all? ”
Qi Jueshi felt that his idea was a bit extreme, but he didn't dare to persuade him.
How did he know that Yun Jiu's thoughts were also the thoughts of all cultivators.
Cultivators are the most selfish in the first place.
People who have nothing to do with them don't even know they're doing it. Unless you encounter it, raise your hand and do it.
This is also the reason why Buddhism in China has been vigorously developed in recent years, and the incense in temples is vigorous, while Taoism is rarely known.
