Chapter 193: Ancestral
Without chatting a few words, Cao Xuanming invited Yunxiao to his house as a guest, Yunxiao agreed without thinking about it, he was going to go to Cao Xuanming or Shen Wanjun to help find out the news about the border.
After all, he is not familiar with this place and does not know how to inquire about it, so it is the best choice to hand them over to these local snakes.
Before leaving, Yunxiao also buckled the gems inlaid on the two knives on the ground, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is meat, and Cao Xuanming can't cry or laugh, I really don't understand, what kind of person this Yunxiao brother is when he falls to the ground.
Yunxiao asked why Cao Xuanming suddenly appeared in this place, and Cao Xuanming said that he had planned to go to the Elders' House to see how Yunxiao was doing, but as soon as he walked to the street, he found Yunxiao's lively figure, and he was also fighting with his senior brother.
Walking near Caofu, the road ahead instantly became wider, and even the five troikas were more than enough to go hand in hand.
What's even more rare is that there are also street vendors and small traders doing business on the streets of this kind of Zhumen family, which adds a bit of human smoke to this Qing residence.
Although Cao's Mansion is not as graceful and luxurious as the Marquis of Zhongwu, it can be regarded as an antique mansion of a wealthy family, among which there are many rockery ponds and martial arts study rooms.
The hall is also decorated with simple and elegant, as soon as you enter the hall, you will find that there is a middle-aged man sitting on the main seat in the hall looking at the scroll, the middle-aged man looks like Cao Xuanming, and the middle-aged man is Cao Xuanming's father Cao Qingling.
Cao Qingling smiled and invited Yunxiao to sit down, and as soon as Yunxiao sat down, a maid brought a tea bowl.
Yunxiao just opened the tea lid, a hot air soared into the air, looked into the tea bowl, and found that the tea soup in the bowl was actually clear white water, and there were several tea leaves that looked like white feathers floating in the tea, and there was no taste after carefully sniffing it, and watching those white feathers flutter and intertwine in the transparent tea soup through the steam, like a few cranes flying freely between the clouds and the sky, and even those literati and ink writers gave it a name, called Crane Youzhan.
Yunxiao didn't expect that he was in the realm of the earth demon, and he could actually drink the Hongyu white tea of the White Feather Immortal Palace, although Yunxiao didn't know much about tea and wine, but he had been with the salted fish for a long time, even if he was not proficient in the way of tea and wine, he had memorized a lot of good tea and good wine.
Yunxiao took a sip, the tea just entered, a different kind of fragrance and sweetness rippled in the mouth of Yunxiao, the fragrance was refreshing, the sweetness was like nectar, when the tea slowly flowed into the back of the tongue, I don't know where a trace of bitterness seeped out, this bitterness did not seem abrupt, on the contrary, this bitterness made the sweet Hongyu white tea more mellow, this mellow seems to be appropriate, neither too strong, nor too thin and abrupt to lose the original taste.
Under the tea, Yunxiao only felt warm, and his body was much more transparent.
Yunxiao reminisced for a while and said, "This Hongyu white tea is worthy of being the top-grade fairy tea of the White Feather Immortal Palace, it is delicious, the kid can drink it today, it can be regarded as stained with the light of Cao's predecessors." β
Cao Qingling didn't expect Yunxiao to actually know Hongyu White Tea, it seems that this Yunxiao is by no means an ordinary Chixiatian disciple, even if he is not a core disciple, I am afraid it is not far behind.
"Hehe, virtuous nephew is polite, if you like it, it doesn't hurt to bring back a few taels. As he spoke, he prepared to call someone down to prepare tea.
Yunxiao hurriedly stopped, this Cao Qingling was a little too enthusiastic about himself, and called himself a virtuous nephew, and sent tea, Hongyu white tea is not those ordinary fairy tea that can be planted in a large area, Hongyu white tea can only grow in the fairy feather holy land of Baiyu Immortal Palace, it can only be produced once every twenty years, and each production is just just 10,000 catties, which sounds like a lot, but in fact, after the Baiyu Immortal Palace itself is divided, after sending some points to the forces that make friends, the Hongyu white tea that can circulate in the market is probably less than 100 catties, and the people of good tea in Liangzhou are trillions of people, and it is a great blessing that you can get a few dollars, let alone a few taelsIt's a dream I can't even think of.
"Cao senior, such a good tea to the kid is a tyrannical thing, although the kid knows that it is the best product, but can not taste its tea rhyme, after drinking it pondering for a long time, can only say a good taste, only such an elegant person like Cao seniors can taste its true taste and artistic conception, so for the kid, drinking Hongyu white tea and white water is not much different. β
"Haha, there are not many honest young people like virtuous nephews,"
Cao Qingling has a little more good impression of Yunxiao in his heart, he is not uncommon to see young people from various families, although there are indeed a few people who are more proficient in the tea ceremony, but most people are pretending, and after drinking, they don't feel painless fake comments one or two, which is also a few clichΓ©s, lest others know that they don't understand tea and lose the face of their famous family, and Cao Qingling also sees through it and doesn't say it.
Like Yunxiao, such a single and honest junior, Cao Qingling has seen it for the first time.
How did he know, what Yunxiao thought in his heart was that he was either a traitor or a thief if he had nothing to do, even if he did help Cao Xuan to order them at the beginning, but in the end he was seriously injured but was carried back by Cao Xuan's life, it can be said that they do not owe each other, even if they take 10,000 steps back, the other party is the person who repays the grace of the dripping water to Yongquan, but this is also a bit too enthusiastic.
However, Cao Qingling's next sentence dispelled the doubts in Yunxiao's heart: "The virtuous nephew is worthy of being the senior disciple of the Great Elder Xuanyuan, acting sincerely and freely, even if you can't drink it, you can take it back to give Xuanyuan Zhang Lao a taste." β
After a long time, it turned out that they mistakenly thought that I had become a disciple of Elder Xuanyuan, so they were so enthusiastic about themselves, a virtuous nephew on the left, a virtuous nephew on the right, and sent such a precious Hongyu white tea, it turned out that everything was based on the premise that they became Xuanyuan Xingyang's apprentices, it seems that Xuanyuan Xingyang is not ordinarily high in their hearts.
Yunxiao couldn't help but laugh and said, "I don't know where Senior Cao got the news from, but the junior didn't become Elder Xuanyuan's disciple, and he didn't have that blessing. β
The amiable smile on Cao Qingling's face suddenly froze, but it immediately returned to normal, and after seeing Cao Xuan's expression, he thought that he had figured out seven or eight points.
Cao Xuan's face was full of surprise, this news was told to him by his master Lu Kai himself, how could it be wrong, could it be that Elder Xuanyuan hadn't mentioned this matter to Brother Yunxiao yet?
Or is Elder Xuanyuan secretly considering Brother Yunxiao's conduct and mentality?
If that's the case, then wouldn't we just be leaking!
No, we must find a way to remedy it.
"Haha, it may be the reason why Brother Yunxiao stayed in Elder Xuanyuan's alchemy room for a day, after all, Elder Xuanyuan's alchemy room is not an ordinary difficult to enter, even if you count it, you will be driven out by Elder Xuanyuan if you don't stay for half an hour, so those miscellaneous boys mistakenly thought that Elder Xuanyuan wanted to accept Brother Yunxiao as an apprentice, so they spread this matter, and the news from the boys in the past was probably not wrong, so we thought that Brother Yunxiao was really accepted as a disciple by Elder Xuanyuan Zhang. Cao Xuanming made up a lie at random, he didn't want to sabotage Elder Xuanyuan's apprenticeship test.
After listening to this, Yunxiao suddenly realized that this was the case.
After saying that, Cao Xuanming also glanced at his father, signaling his father not to say that he was leaking, Cao Qingling nodded without a trace, indicating that he had already guessed.
And he thought more than Cao Xuanming, when he mentioned this matter just now, this Yunxiao did not have the slightest hint of surprise, and the words were also very familiar and fluent, as if they had been typed a long time ago.
There are only two possibilities in this situation, the first possibility is that Elder Xuanyuan has already accepted him as an apprentice, but in order to experience or give him some trials, he is not allowed to leak the matter of accepting disciples, and only after he has passed the test will he accept him as an apprentice openly.
The second possibility is that Elder Xuanyuan hasn't opened this mouth yet, but someone has already asked him, so he will say those words so skillfully.
But from leaving home to bringing him back, it was only a quarter of an hour before and after, and this time was just enough to go back and forth from Cao's Mansion to the House of Elders, if someone on the road had asked something similar, then Ming'er would definitely not have the same expression as it is now, and in the House of Elders, except for the three elders, the rest were those boys, and those boys generally did not have the courage to risk offending a great elder to ask such a thing.
Based on the above inference, Cao Qingling determined that the answer was the first possibility, Yunxiao was now in the test of Elder Xuanyuan, as for whether he could pass this test, it was another matter, but there was no harm in building a good relationship in advance.
However, what Cao Qingling didn't know was that the reason why Cao Xuanming was able to bring people back so quickly was entirely because Cao Xuanming met him halfway, and Cao Xuanming didn't tell his father about this, and he didn't plan to tell Cao Qingling about it, because this fact was too embarrassing for the master, and a fateful realm couldn't beat a fateful realm.
What the two fathers and sons of the Cao family didn't know was that Xuanyuan Xingyang did say that he wanted to take Yunxiao as a disciple, but Yunxiao directly rejected Xuanyuan Xingyang, and Yunxiao pretended not to have such a thing in order to save face for Xuanyuan Xingyang.
This is what caused the Cao family father and son to think too much.
If Yunxiao knew what the Cao family's father and son were thinking, he would definitely choose to tell them what he really wanted directly, so as not to make them think wildly.
Cao Qingling, who thought he had sorted things out, opened his mouth and said, "It's okay, even if the virtuous nephew is not Elder Xuanyuan's apprentice, just say what the virtuous nephew said just now, I will also give you a few taels, if you understand, you understand, if you don't understand, there are too few honest young people like you now, rather than giving those who don't know how to make tea, and after drinking, you have to pretend to say something bullish and don't talk to the horse, I might as well send it to you, at least your good drink is from the heart." β
"......"
As soon as Yunxiao wanted to speak, he was interrupted by Cao Qingling, "Hongyu white tea is indeed a good tea, but no matter how good the tea is, someone must drink it, otherwise what is the difference between them and ordinary leaves, the virtuous nephew will take it and taste it a few more times, and you will be able to taste it roughly." β
In this case, the younger generation is disrespectful. "Everyone else has said this, and it's really too hypocritical to excuse yourself, even if you don't drink it, take it back and give it to the salted fish to drink.
After Yunxiao took the cold ice jade box containing the tea leaves, he didn't see any movement from him, and the jade box disappeared.
Seeing this scene, the father and son of the Cao family glanced at each other, and became more determined in their conjectures, but they didn't expect Xuanyuan Zhang Lao to love this disciple so much, and even gave him a space magic weapon that could be attached to his body.
If Yunxiao knew, he would definitely tell them that this was his ancestor.
