Chapter 206 Tea on the Tao
Hearing the footsteps of the two people, Ji Xuehe slowly raised his head, with a kind smile on his face, he recognized the person at a glance, nodded incessantly, and waited for the arrival of the two people.
"Kong Da has seen the old man!" As soon as the two of them walked to Ji Xuehe's side, they saw Kong Da kneeling down and kowtowing a few times to the old man to show respect, while Jing Chong stood aside expressionlessly.
"You're here, I've said you don't need to do these false courtesies anymore, I'm old, you can come and see me!" Ji Xuehe said softly as he picked up Kong Da.
"The old man has always been an elder, and I have been busy dealing with the affairs in the village and rarely come to visit your old man, and it is already a great shame to give a mere salute!" Kong Da's face was red, although he had lived for such an age, he still looked a little restrained in front of the old man.
"Okay, okay, let it go!" Ji Xuehe waved his hand, then turned to look at Jing Chong.
"You're here too!How about it, the letter of recommendation I gave you before is okay, did Wusu let you enter the inner village?" Facing Jing Chong, Ji Xuehe was very easy-going, he was always smiling, and his eyes were full of love.
Such a contact, of course, flattered Jing Chong, and the long-lost warmth came to his heart, as if he had met a real relative.
"The old man is above, Jing Chong is really ashamed!" Thinking of the experience of more than a month, Jing Chong's whole heart became sad, and tears in his eyes almost came out when he spoke.
How can such a performance escape Ji Xuehe's eyes? He sighed and shook his head, and said casually, "I also know some things about you, but it's not a bad thing for young people to suffer a little more, there is hope for people to live, and I also hope that you can get rid of your anger and understand the meaning of my words!"
There is not much to say, but it has benefited a lot, yes, what is happier than being alive? The world is already full of suffering, if you can't think about it and increase your troubles, it is a kind of fetters, and if you treat it with a different mentality, isn't it a kind of growth?
"Thank you for the old man's enlightenment! Jing Chong bowed and his eyes were full of gratitude, that is, in front of Ji Xuehe, he was grateful to a trace of steadfastness, and he could truly express himself.
"Come in, I don't think you guys will come here for no reason!" Ji Xuehe has insight into the world, he has lived for such a long time, what kind of wind and waves he has not seen, although he still does not know the true intentions of the two, but he can also guess some clues.
The two of them were speechless, and slowly walked into the courtyard gate following the footsteps of the old man, the familiar courtyard was still there, and it was obvious that this was inseparable from Ji Xuehe's usual careful care.
Without looking too much into the details, the three of them walked into the house in the middle.
The furnishings in the house are still very simple, a few bamboo chairs, three coffee tables, and a rough plate of inferior pots on the coffee table, although it looks ordinary, but it also looks extraordinarily fresh.
The old man motioned for the two to sit down, and he walked to the charcoal fire in the side room and took down the kettle.
"This is my own fragrant tea, only a few catties of output a year, but also significantly precious, I also named it Qinqing tea, this tea is fragrant, refreshing, very suitable for you to drink now!" Ji Xuehe poured a cup of tea and handed it to Jing Chong and said slowly.
Jing Chong has never drunk tea so quietly, and he doesn't have a trace of understanding of the tea ceremony, anyway, it is just drinking tea, just like drinking water, just pour it directly to quench his thirst, just have such a hungry thought, he will drink it all when he takes it.
"Wait!" Leng Buding was stopped when he came to his lips, and he couldn't help but look up.
"Water is for drinking, tea is for tasting, isn't it a ruin for you to drink tea like this?" Ji Xuehe was full of smiles, he held a pot in one hand, and pointed to the teacup with the other hand and said, and this remark made Jing Chong's face blush.
I didn't expect to be so particular just drinking tea, and at this time, the tea was in his mouth, and he didn't drink it or put it, but it made him freeze there.
"Hahaha, it's interesting and interesting, whatever you want!" Looking at Jing Chong's embarrassment, Ji Xuehe smiled and waved his hand at Jing Chong, which is not strong.
This tea was really awkward, and Jing Chong had no choice but to drink it all according to his heart.
As soon as he swallowed it, he felt a wave of heat flowing down his throat, the heat wave rolled for a while and slowly dispersed, evolving into a warmth scattered in all states, and the whole body looked lazy, after a short period of comfort, followed by a fresh and thorough coolness all over the body, he actually felt that every pore on his body became cheerful, and there was a lingering fragrance in his mouth, and the depression in his heart was also swept away under the impact of this tea.
"What a magical tea, what a fragrant tea!" couldn't help but praise it, Jing Chong's face also had a rare smile, he held the teacup in his hand and kept flipping, his face was still full of unfinished meaning.
"Tea is a good tea, but it still needs the cooperation of the tea maker, the same tea, different temperatures, different utensils, the effect of the tea brewed is also completely different, even if the mood of the person can also affect the quality of the tea!" Ji Xuehe explained deeply about the kung fu of drinking tea, although Jing Chong didn't know what the other party meant, but he was still fascinated by it.
"Can people's mood also affect the taste of tea?" was the first time Jing Chong had come into contact with such a concept, so he seemed very curious.
"Of course, people have feelings, and tea also has feelings, and the tea brewed in different moods naturally feels different!" Speaking of this, Jing Chong seemed to understand something, he knew that Ji Xuehe was hinting at himself, but he still couldn't fully understand.
"Oh! so that's it!" Jing Chong didn't know how to pretend to understand, and Ji Xuehe looked at him expectantly with a smile on his head.
"Everything in the world has spirituality, people as the spirit of the spirit of its influence is naturally stronger, the strength of people is not in the strength, but also in the human heart, although the tea is small, but also resonate, different people's moods to brew, naturally there are different tastes, I hope you can understand!" Ji Xuehe is no longer just a simple hint, he is already prompting, this move is intended to make him understand.
After hearing these words, a flash of inspiration flashed in Leng Buding's mind, Jing Chong seemed to understand something, this concept had been touched before, but Ji Xuehe was using the tea ceremony to remind himself.
Now my mood is too depressed, and my own resentment is too deep, the same principle is still used in cultivation, with a calm heart to cultivate, the perfect combination of spirit and body, naturally can also achieve unexpected results, if you have been cultivating under the influence of this suppressed emotion, I am afraid that everything will be half the result, and if it is serious, it may be grounded and stop here.
At the same time, the same is true for Nie Haiyuan's affairs, he has always been desperate to find an antidote, and often in a hurry, he will make mistakes, and when the time comes, it will be in vain and in vain.
What's more, now that I am in the mood, even if Ji Xuehe is willing to accept him as an apprentice, I am afraid that if he wants to improve his strength in a short period of time, he will not be able to achieve it if he wants to succeed.
Maybe Ji Xuehe knows what he means by this, and he understands his current situation better, so he will take such pains to point himself up with tea.
After all, a master is a master, and every bit of life has a deep understanding and has become a famous saying, which shows that what Kong Da said is true, and he really needs a real master to guide himself.
