The cherry blossoms of Mt. Hakuri are about to bloom, and the spring tea season is also in season.

Lu Yuan walked to the spring behind the house and poured several large buckets of spring water, poured it down from his head naked, and rinsed his smell clean. After drying it with a linen cloth, Lu Yuan changed into a newly made cotton gown, and prepared to pick the first tea leaves of the year.

Although the current spring tea is somewhat tainted with the taste of cherry blossoms, Lu Yuan doesn't particularly like it. However, the "Boli Cloud Tea" that came out for the first time, which is rich in the power of heaven and earth, is undoubtedly the best product in the world! Even calling it fairy tea is not an exaggeration. It is very different from the tea leaves that Lu Yuan picked before winter, and they should be treated carefully.

And these teas were originally the accidental products obtained after various coincidences. It is estimated that the best tea leaves are produced in the past few years, and with the exhaustion of alchemy elixirs, these teas will gradually return to the mundane, even if they still carry the Yuan Power of Heaven and Earth, the content cannot be as high as now. Therefore, even out of respect for the tea itself, Lu Yuan needs to come up with his own preparations!

On the bamboo forest behind the house, there were ten burnt bamboo swords and bamboo baskets, which were the tools that Lu Yuan had prepared for picking tea. After a whole winter, these bamboo utensils have been immersed in winter snow and spring rain, and have completely washed away the fragrance of the bamboo itself.

Using this utensil to pick and pack will not affect the taste of the tea itself.

Lu Yuan carried a bamboo basket on his back, and walked among the bamboo forests in a green shirt, several bamboo swords inserted in the bamboo basket seemed to be moving, but they were actually picking tea leaves at a very fast speed. Picking with a bamboo sword instead of by hand is precisely to avoid contamination by human odor and sweat.

The purpose of not using metal swords is to avoid gold and iron and killing aura. Lu Yuan didn't even use his true qi when he used the bamboo sword, and he relied solely on the speed and sharpness of the sword to cut off the leaf stems. The whole tea leaves are picked in the most complete way, and the maximum length is guaranteed to be the shape and original taste.

The original Huangshan Maofeng needs to be picked again within half a day. It is necessary to start making zuò, which is to ensure quality and freshness. Lu Yuan has a "magician's bracelet" that can slow down the passage of time, and after entering the bracelet, it will be as if time stands still, and there is no better way to keep it fresh. Therefore, he can store the freshly picked tea leaves and choose a day when the climate and environment are good before starting to make zuò.

Lu Yuan picked on the first day, and the huge tea garden only picked half a basket of fresh leaves. He chooses carefully, as long as one bud and one leaf first and one bud and one leaf. If you are a little older, uneven in color, or damaged, you can just let it go. This half basket of fresh leaves can be said to be the best among tea leaves - the tea farmers in the world do not have Lu Yuan's swordsmanship and eyesight, and he does not have his unpredictable methods, of course, there is no way to grow and pick tea like him.

After that, if you pick a small half basket every day, you can pick the best fresh leaves for about ten days, and you can harvest about four or five baskets of fresh leaves every year. Later, with the climate change, even if there is a bud and a new leaf that has just begun to bloom, it cannot be regarded as the best.

For the next hundred years and thousands of years. The new leaves that have been picked in the past ten days will not be taken out for drinking under any circumstances. Wait until the quality of the tea is downgraded, and when it is time for the premium tea, the issue of drinking and selling will be considered......

In a word. Only the most superb techniques are worthy of the best tea.

"Ahhh Cuixiang, quickly put down the box. I'm going to get angry~"

"Hahaha~ I won't give it...... You're coming to catch me~"

With the sound of silver bell-like laughter, the two little girls ran one after the other. Stumbling out of the cherry blossom forest. The one in front of him holding a large box was none other than Kazami Suika. She was very short though. But the strength is very great. The big box placed in front of the door of the Boli Shrine, Lu Yuan once suspected that it was made of rosewood, but she was actually put on the big horn by her, and she could run all the way from the Boli Shrine here.

Not to mention, the two of them didn't know how many times they had gone around in the cherry blossom forest, and they were really little girls with terrible strange powers.

Reimu Hakurei rolled up her sleeves and brandished the royal coin in a frustrated chase, her eyes fixed on the box, and she cried out in pain every time she was bumped.

The two of them are estimated to have been chasing for a long time in the cherry blossom forest, and now there are cherry blossom petals all over their hair and bodies, making the two girls more and more bright and cute, and their cheerful smiles almost compare this spring.

When they rushed out of the cherry blossom forest, they happened to meet Lu Yuan, who had just finished picking tea leaves.

"Ahh It's a local tyrant! I invite you to drink, can you treat me to a snack? As soon as Ibuki saw Lu Yuan, she immediately ran over happily...... Still holding the box...... Because of what happened last time, she has been hesitating and has never come to Jiamu House.

But she had dreamed of that kind of burnt dim sum for several days in a row, and when she saw Lu Yuan this time, she immediately thought of dim sum, and she couldn't close her mouth with a smile......

"Hello uncle!" Reimu panted and said hello, then looked at Ibuki Suika, who was hiding behind Lu Yuan, and said viciously. "Give me back the box!"

"And, I'll give it back to you, Reimu stingy." Ibuki Suika directly put the big wooden box on the grass, she knew how tight Hakurei Reimu was about this box, jokes are jokes, and if she broke it, she would be taught a lesson by Hakurei Reimu. She turned her head and grabbed Lu Yuan's sleeve, "Lord Tuhao, let's go quickly!" ”

Maybe it's because Ibuki really likes sweets, and she couldn't help but swallow as she spoke.

"You!" Reimu Hakurei looked at the half-human-sized box, dizzy with anger. When the Witch of the Poree raises donations, the box used is another small one. This big wooden box is usually placed at the main entrance of the shrine, and she can move it a little, but how can she move it back to the mountain!

"Look at these petals on your body......" Lu Yuan said with a smile, he stretched out his hand and helped the little girl pick the cherry blossom petals on the top of her head first.

Ibuki Tsuyaka smiled no, she shook her two big horns, her small body was driven to shake a few times, and the stained cherry blossoms shook off with her movements, like a puppy in a bath. Her brown hair, though long, looked dry and smooth, and with a sway, it was naturally neatly gathered together, leaving nothing to touch.

Lu Yuan had no choice but to turn around and pluck the cherry blossom petals on the top of Reimeng's head. The girl's puffing expression, ruddy complexion, and forehead stained with flower petals, with the red witch costume, the bright girl instantly made Lu Yuan cute.

When he twisted the cherry blossoms on the big bow with his hand, his fingers flicked their tails, and the invisible true qi picked off the petals on her forehead and cheeks.

"Don't worry...... Lu Yuan pointed to the big box on the ground, "Remember what I told you about the 'shrinking technique'?" It's a three-ring spell, and you can't use it right now, but we can try a simplified version of it......"

Lu Yuan stood here directly, and explained in detail to Bo Li Reimu for a few minutes, guiding Reimu to manipulate the magic power. Lu Yuan's mastery of magic is already very high, and there was no simplified version of the "shrinkage technique" of the three rings, but Lu Yuan deleted and changed it on the spot, and a "secondary shrinkage technique" was formed on the spot. After a while, the half-human box was shrunk into a small box that Reimu could hold in her hand, a few points smaller than the portable box she usually used.

Ibuki Suika watched Lu Yuan patiently teach from the side, and Reimu listened very carefully, and suddenly felt very envious...... Very envious.

……

A few people returned to Lu Yuan's cabin on the road, and Lu Yuan noticed that Reimu had regained his vitality and began to run around. Or with a shrunken box, collect donations from him, a local tyrant. Instead, it was Ibuki Sumika, who had been making a lot of noise before, and became a little silent at this time. Lu Yuan didn't know what the child would think in his heart, maybe it was gluttonous pastries. He rubbed his hand on the top of Cuixiang's head, "You guys play as you like, I'll prepare snacks for you." ”

As soon as Lu Yuan left, the two of them sat on the sofa casually and twisted on it, but this time the sofa gentleman didn't say a word, it was really boring...... They didn't know that the last time the sofa gentleman dared to speak casually to the queen, he was trampled to pieces by Yuka Kazami! Since then, Lu Yuan has turned off the speech system of all the furniture in the room.

"Kazami. Tuhao. Suika, come and see this ......" Reimu jumped off the couch and pulled Ibuki Sanka to run to the wall. The photos hanging there are the "family photos" of Lu Yuan, Youxiang, and Cuixiang, "Remember what I said?" Don't forget to ask for pocket money, a total of 400 years! Hakurei Reimu's eyes gleamed with the golden light of a coin.

Ibuki Tsuika originally thought that Reimu's statement was very disciplined, but the scene when Lu Yuan taught Reimu just now made her a little envious, so she quietly changed her mind in her heart. "Reimu, come with me, I'm very shy ...... alone"

"Okay, okay." Reimu didn't dare to look her friend's eyes, and agreed in a bit of a panic.

In recent days, spring rains have begun to fall with appropriate shades.

Except for Kazami Yuka sleeping upstairs, there have been no guests coming to the door these days. In addition to going out to pick tea leaves every day, Lu Yuan goes home to analyze the magic, guarding the wind of sleep and seeing the fragrance, he occasionally feels that this place is a little deserted.

After Hakurei Reimu and Ibuki Suyaka arrived, listening to the two girls suddenly playing and whispering in the living room, Lu Yuan suddenly felt that the house was a lot more popular. When he prepared this time, he redoubled his attention and deliberately made the baked biscuits into the shape of various small animals, which were very cute.

Then I used a cup with the image of Reimu and Cuixiang Q version, filled the tea and brought it out.

The two girls stood shoulder to shoulder, laughing and smiling in front of the kitchen door. Seeing Lu Yuan come out, they looked up at him with a cute expression, stretched out their hands and said in unison:

"Dad~, pocket money!"

"Bang dang~!" Lu Yuan was dumbfounded, his hand couldn't help but let go, and the tray fell to the ground with the cup in tow......
