Chapter 9: The Toei Tea Ceremony and the Midnight Attack
At this time, the water used to make tea has been boiled,
I saw that the girl first washed the teapot and teacup with hot water, and then carefully put the tea leaves into the teapot, and then poured boiling water, after washing the tea, poured boiling water again, and then washed the boiling water from the top of the closed teapot, and waited until the tea was brewed, and then poured the tea water from the teapot into a small cup.
Shunzi held the cup with one hand, and held the cup with three fingers in the other hand, and sent the teacup to Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao hurriedly took it with the same, "Thank you, Miss Shunzi." He smiled at Junko,
Junko was shy and silent, and then she sent the tea to the leader of Panasonic and Yan Laojiu in turn.
"Good tea." Zhu Houzhao said,
"Your guests are really appreciative, this tea is the "main tea" on our Tokyo Kyoto Musto Takayama Temple, and it was specially brought to me by my friend. "Panasonic said,
"Good tea, I've always heard of the name of this tea, and it's really a blessing to drink it today." Zhu Houzhao said,
"Yes, in fact, this tea seed is from the Central Plains, when I Dongying a Rongxi master went to the Central Plains to learn Zen Taoism, and later returned to China, he brought back the tea seeds, planted in Kyushu Island next to a temple called Fuchunyuan, where later became a very prosperous tea garden, he then gave the tea seed to Kyoto Takayama Temple a man called Minghui Master, the Venerable Master planted next to his temple, the environment of Kozanji Temple is very suitable for growing tea, so later the tea here is valued, called "this tea" and the rest of the tea is called "non-tea" 。 "Panasonic said,
"Yes, the two masters are really elegant." Zhu Houzhao said,
In fact, Zhu Houzhao thought to himself, the masters of the past spread the culture of Middle-earth to you, and now when you are enjoying the culture of Middle-earth, you come to Middle-earth to do evil, it is really a sage.
"Drinking tea is very important in our Dongying, which is also benefiting the culture of the Central Plains, but now we have some new experiences, for us, this tea drinking has been an important activity." Panasonic said,
"I heard that the development of the tea ceremony in your country in the past hundred years is related to some nobles who look down on the red dust, and they have developed the tea culture to a very delicate point." Zhu Houzhao said,
"Yes, our tea ceremony is developed on the basis of "daily tea and rice affairs", it will be daily life behavior and religion, philosophy, ethics and aesthetics into a furnace, into a comprehensive cultural activity, we have a Sen no Rikyu master, he boiled down the tea ceremony to "harmony and respect for the silence" This basically said the whole artistic conception of the tea ceremony, whether it is a nobleman or a merchant, or a samurai, as long as you drink tea, you can experience the state of pure and quiet beauty, and then the body and mind are happy, they say "the beauty of pure silence". ”
"Yes, I saw Miss Junko's tea just now, and my mind was clear." Zhu Houzhao said,
"Yes, that's the true meaning of the tea ceremony." Panasonic said,
It would be nice if you could really be silent, everyone is relaxed, but if you want to come to the Central Plains to plunder, we will not let you go, Zhu Houzhao said in his heart,
"I can't see that Mr. Matsushita is also fond of tea, I usually like to drink tea in addition to making antiques, and I am also a hobby," Zhu Houzhao said.
"Mr. Dongfang has a deep understanding of antiques, and I need his help." Panasonic said,
"Traveling thousands of miles just for money, businessmen are mercenary, as long as it is for money, everything is easy to say." Zhu Houzhao said,
"Sir, rest assured, as long as Mr. sincerely cooperates with me, making money is not a problem." Panasonic said,
"Mr. Dongfang, it's late today, please rest on the boat for one night, and you can get to our base tomorrow, and you can see those calligraphy, paintings and antiques." Panasonic said,
"Okay, thank you Matsushita-kun." Zhu Houzhao said,
That night, Zhu Houzhao slept on the boat, where he lived was in a room in the middle, the sea water was constantly lapping the side of the boat, through the window, Zhu Houzhao saw the bright moon hanging high,
The bright moon on the sea was originally a very beautiful artistic conception, but at this moment, because of the task, Zhu Houzhao was a little nervous.
He remembered a lot of things, and in a daze, he squinted,
When he squinted into the middle of the night, he suddenly woke up, because he saw someone standing in front of him,
Around his neck, a sword was struck,
Zhu Houzhao was shocked, he regretted why he fell asleep,
I saw that the man was masked and said to him: "You dog traitor, you are actually in the company of the Japanese Bandits, if I don't kill you today, I will not be a Han." ”
Zhu Houzhao was shocked, who is this person?
He wanted to shout, but he looked into the eyes of the person who came, and he found that there was something wrong with the eyes of this person.
Because generally if it is such a high-spirited person, his eyes can reflect that he is angry, not like this person, there is a trace of cunning in the depths of his eyes, Zhu Hou moved according to his thoughts,
"Big brother, calm down, I don't know what you want to do, I'm just a businessman, I just want to ask for money, if you don't want me to ask for this money, I'll go, you don't have to kill me." Zhu Houzhao said,
"You traitor, you don't want it for the sake of your ancestors, you will die." The man was about to wipe the sword on Zhu Houzhao's body,
"Brother Yan, help." Zhu Houzhao shouted loudly,
"Don't shout." The man was talking, but Zhu Houzhao still shouted loudly,
When the man saw this, he immediately put away his knife and jumped out of the window.
Zhu Houzhao hurriedly went to the window to take a look, only to see the bright moon in the sky, and the sea water sparkling under the moon.
Everything is so beautiful, everything just now seems like a dream,
At this time, Yan Laojiu pushed the door in, "Brother, what's the matter, you were shouting just now." ”
"It's okay, Brother Yan, someone wanted to kill me just now, I think there is a traitor on your ship, Brother Yan, you have to protect me, he said I am a traitor, he wants to kill me! I'm just asking for money, and the rest has nothing to do with me, Brother Yan saved me. Zhu Houzhao said,
"Well, okay, don't worry, I'll protect it, brother, don't worry, just now we heard that a person jumped into the sea, this person has been lurking on our ship for so long, we didn't find out, now it's okay, he himself is exposed, that's good, otherwise we will suffer a lot of losses in the future." Yan Laojiu said,
"Well, that's good, that's good, although it is said that Fugui is in danger, and I have also gone to the ancient tomb with tomb robbers in order to seek wealth, but today's incident still scares me, I have to adjust it well, Brother Yan." Zhu Houzhao said,
"That brother is well adjusted, don't think about it, make money well, we are all the same, we have to face these every day, I can't choose at this time, in fact, I envy my brother, rest well, don't think too much." Yan Laojiu said,
"Well, I will also make a few more strokes of such a knife edge, and I will stop after trying to make money," Zhu Houzhao said.
"Haha, good brother, I guess you're enough to do this business with my brother, don't think about it, sleep." Yan Laojiu said,
