Chapter 124: Tea Fight

Many things you thought were impossible just you couldn't do!

Jiang An's heart was straightforward, he had a strong doubt about this mysterious teahouse, why did this scholar let himself and others go to the teahouse just by visual inspection, could it be that their assessment standard was the beauty of the guests?

If so, Jiang An can still accept it, after all, his appearance is there, and the facts will not tell lies.

The scholar didn't care, straightened up and stood in front of him with his hands down, his attitude was very dignified and kind, and said: "Jingxin Teahouse, only guests who really like the tea ceremony are welcome, even if the guest does not understand the tea ceremony, as long as he is here to taste tea and come for the tea ceremony, he can enter the second floor to taste tea." ”

"Are you so sure that a few of us like the tea ceremony, and just rely on your eyes to judge?" Jiang An asked aggressively, maybe he couldn't see that the book grew more handsome than him.

Only then did the scholar understand Jiang An's doubts, smiled lightly, only showed a few teeth, looked very elegant and cultivated, and in ancient times, he must have been a romantic genius who fascinated thousands of girls.

"Tea ceremony, from nature, in heaven and earth, in the hearts of the people, Ning and a few years ago began to pick tea, make tea, taste tea, understand tea, although I dare not say that I am proficient in the tea ceremony, but also spy on one or two, whether the guests really like the tea ceremony, Ning and nature can see that if the heart is to the Tao, everywhere is the Tao."

Jiang An rolled his eyes helplessly, these cultured people like to talk about some profound topics of heaven and earth, if you ask him if the scrambled eggs with tomatoes are delicious, he will tell him sΓΉ You have the chicken or the egg first, Jiang An can't figure out what he's talking about now, anyway, it sounds very powerful.

Unable to get an answer, Jiang An could only go to see in person what kind of ability this pavilion owner had, and slowly walked up to the second floor.

Only on the second floor, Jiang'an smelled a faint fragrance of tea, like light smoke, lingering in the whole space, faint but not dispersed, it is the characteristics of Pu'er, Jiang'an asked himself whether he could reach such a realm, and the curiosity about the owner in his heart has become more and more serious.

The decoration on the second floor is elegant and light, the pale yellow hard pear wood is paved with the floor, there is a screen between each tea table, the layout is rigorous, not crowded or scattered, with everyone's style, there is a black incense burner in the middle position, the fire is bright and dark, very charming!

The wind is a free man, the green smoke is like a mist, and the end of the world is broken!

An Xiao's big eyes shone brightly, and finally came to the place she had dreamed of for a long time, the little girl was very satisfied with this elegant place, and wanted to sit down comfortably and drink tea.

"A few guests, please here, what kind of tea do you want to drink?" Two waiters in cheongsams walked over, tall and tall, with a smile on their faces, and asked politely.

Jiang An hesitated for a moment and asked, "Excuse me, where is your pavilion master?" ”

The two women looked at each other for a moment with some embarrassment, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, the owner of the museum."

"Cailian, since you are a guest of good tea, you can bring it, it seems that today's luck is good, there are several tea friends one after another, you have to entertain them." Before the woman's words could be finished, a light voice came, and although the words were soft, they carried a toughness that could not be refuted.

The woman named Cailian bowed slightly, stretched out her hand and said, "A few people here, please." ”

After being led by Cailian, several people found that there was a hidden wing room on the second floor, and when they pushed open the wooden door, the area of the room was not large, only more than 20 square meters, and there was a thick red carpet on the ground, which felt very good when stepped on.

In the middle of the room, two women sat at a table with neat tea sets, a brightly lit stove on the floor, a copper kettle above the stove smoking, and a wooden barrel beside it.

"What is this doing, Mr. Chongming?" Where has Zhijing seen such a formation, what are those two women sitting there doing, drinking tea, why does the woman with her back to her look so familiar?

Chongming understood something when he saw such a decoration, nodded with a little appreciation, and explained in a low voice: "These two people are fighting tea, that is, competing for the level of tea art, from making tea to boiling tea, until the end of tea brewing, this kind of competition was very popular a long time ago, but now people don't like to drink tea more and more, and there are fewer and fewer people who understand tea, so it is rare." ”

Chongming has a lot of sighs in her heart, she has lived in the sect since she was a child, and has also studied all kinds of ancient Chinese culture, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting have dabbled, and the ancestors have also read a lot of famous books, but unfortunately after going out of the mountain, I found that these things are no longer popular, young people drink coffee, no one tastes tea, and there are people who drink tea just to be vassal and elegant, and improve their identity and style.

"Sister, do you see this person, have we seen him?" An Ruo and Zhijing had the same doubts, pointing to the back in front of them and asked.

An Xiao frowned her small eyebrows, and now that she looked closely, she also felt that this woman was somewhat familiar, with a long blue-white Hanfu and a brown wooden hairpin that coiled her hair, and her figure was slender and exquisite.

"Ahh An Xiao is quite witty, and after thinking for a while, he finally recognized who this person was, but he didn't expect that a few people had a fate, they were able to meet during the lion dance, and now they can see each other again in the teahouse, it's really fateful.

Facing the riverbank is a beautiful young woman, beautiful and graceful, with a melon seed face and big eyes, no wrinkles can be seen on her face, and she can only judge that her age is about thirty years old by virtue of the temperament on her body.

The woman saw everyone coming in, and the movement of making tea in her hands did not stop, and she saluted slightly: "A few people came from afar, and it was rude to fail to greet them, and after Lan Ting entertained the guests in front of her, she would inevitably serve good tea, if a few people don't dislike it, you can call me Sister Lan, Cailian, go and bring the big red robe I brought from Wuyi Mountain last time, and I met a few tea lovers today, which is really fortunate." ”

Jiang An hesitated for a moment, and said respectfully: "Sister Lan is polite, it's rude to disturb the tea fight between the two." ”

After speaking, Jiang An whispered a few words to the women, and everyone sat on the ground, quietly watching the tea fight of the two women in front of them.

The Hanfu woman didn't seem to notice the arrival of a few people at all, and concentrated on lifting the copper kettle on the stove, and poured it into the cup without looking.

I can't see that this woman is weak on the outside, but she has a lot of strength on the inside, and now the girl is really becoming more and more unpredictable for boys.

"The water in this pot is the living water of Hibiscus Spring?" The woman looked at the hot water in the cup and suddenly asked.

"Yes, it is the living water of Hibiscus Spring, making tea pays attention to water and fire, the mountains and rivers are on the top, the river water is in the middle, the well water is below, the Hibiscus Spring is located in the mountains, although the spring is insufficient, but the water quality is natural, sweet and clean, every morning I will go to fetch water, all used to make tea." Sister Lan replied lightly, and the words in her words had already made Jiang An feel admiration.

It seems that this owner is really capable, at least he is very strict about making tea.

"The best spring water, coupled with the vigorous living fire, twisted charcoal, the fire is pure and stable, you are a person who understands the tea ceremony." The eyes of the Hanfu beauties were shining, and she looked at Sister Lan seriously, and her words didn't seem like she was complimenting people.

Sister Lan smiled lightly: "The tea ceremony is extremely profound, where can anyone really understand." ”

The Hanfu beauty didn't speak, and quietly proceeded with the next steps.

Washing cups, taking tea, washing tea, making tea, Jiang An watched the woman's movements seriously, without pause, as smooth as flowing clouds, and her hands were like soft wattles, which were more beautiful than white porcelain cups.

Punch high and pour low!

Jiang An nodded secretly, he also followed this process when he made tea, but the movements were far less delicate and neat than those of Hanfu women, such skills seem simple, but in fact, they require years of practice and experience.

Looking at Sister Lan's side, the movements are equally graceful and smooth, the slender fingers gently crush the tea cakes, and the fine and thick leaves are selected without hurry, and the tea is brewed at a steady and uniform speed, and the water in the teapot is rushing like a waterfall, but there is never a drop of water splashing, and the technology can be seen.

Jiang An has completely believed in Sister Lan's technique at this time, this kind of action can not be done without a few years of tea ceremony cultivation, even if the imitator can learn its form, but it is rare to find its god, this is the essence of the tea ceremony.

Tea brewing is the most powerful moment, whether it can meet the standard of "three mountains Qi" depends on the craftsmanship of the tea maker, Sister Lan and the Hanfu beauties are light and leisurely, so that the onlookers feel calm, leisure and natural.

The small white teacups were neatly placed on the table, there were five on Sister Lan's side, and five in front of the Hanfu beauties, who seemed to have the intention of entertaining Jiang An and the others, after all, they had also watched the performance for a long time, and now they were all dry mouths.

"Please have a cup of tea!" The Hanfu beauty poured five cups of tea, then looked at Jiang An and the others next to her, and said.

"Please-" Sister Lan's movements were also completed, and she breathed a sigh of relief, since she was far away from Yanjing and came to this beautiful Furong Street, it was the first time she had made tea so seriously and formally, just because the woman in front of her gave her an extraordinary feeling.

Sister Lan is a master of the tea ceremony in Yanjing, and she has not met an opponent for many years, but when she saw this woman today, she actually gave birth to an invincible heart, which is something that surprised her, how old is this child, has she started drinking tea from her mother's womb?

Jiang'an carefully tastes the tea of the Hanfu beauty, the entrance should be slow, you need to let the tea flow through all parts of the mouth, let it slide down the throat naturally, this is the correct way to taste tea.

Although the entrance is slightly bitter, but this is the characteristic of Longjing, from bitter to light, strange and wonderful feeling in the mouth continues to explode, Jiang'an seriously experienced the changes, sweet and moist, as if the whole body has entered the clear spring, all the pores have been baptized.

If you get a new life!

Jiang An really felt the taste of tea, unlike the tea he brewed, his tea was only bitter, not the last sweet taste, and he lost the essence of tea and the taste of tea.

Sister Lan also tasted the tea of the Hanfu beauties, closed her eyes and experienced it carefully a few times, first shallow and then deep, and finally drank it completely.

"Good teaβ€”"
