Text Chapter 14 Three Zhixiang

Fang Hong naturally wouldn't pierce the snake's "seven inches". What's more, there are people who intercede for snakes!

At this moment, Fang Hong's spear head slowly fell to the ground, and the snake head slowly fell down with the spear head. Fang Hong drew back the iron spear, and the snake turned its head and slowly crawled into a small cave at the foot of the stone wall, and disappeared after a while.

Only then did Fang Hong find out that the intercession for the snake was an old lady who was nearly seventy years old. The old lady wore a strong cotton coarse cloth woven by her own loom, and wore a silver hairband on her head, a hairpin studded with jade was inserted in a silver-colored bun, and a black mole hung from her right eyebrow. With an old face but sharp eyes, he looks like the kind of person with strong self-discipline and strict family education.

At this moment, the old lady was sitting next to a set of dragon-shaped root carved coffee tables, and a gold-inlaid jade bamboo cane glowing red was leaning on her chest. She said to Xiaoqing with a serious expression: "Qingzhu, you are at least an hour late!" Meals are cold! Go and call the old fruit to refresh it!"

When the old lady said this, she said to Fang Hong: "Thank you for this little brother's mercy on the black second-hand and taking care of Qingzhu all the way!" Please sit down and drink tea first! ”

Xiaoqing was angry at the black snake's attack on Fang Hong, but when she saw that Fang Hong was safe and sound, her face immediately turned from cloudy to sunny. Hearing the old lady say this, she silently walked into the back door of the stone house.

Fang Hong felt that this old lady was very unusual. To sum up, there are three characteristics: first, the old lady speaks Chinese without a Zhuang accent; second, the old lady dresses neatly and behaves dignifiedly, unlike a person who has been exposed to manual labor all year round; and third, the old lady's tone towards people that seems to be an order rather than an order is impossible to refuse. is similar to the noble old lady of Jiafu in "Dream of Red Mansions". He has never heard of Han people in Xizhu Mountain since he was a child, this is obviously an old phoenix who lives in seclusion in the mountains, and she knows that she is a person with a Tibetan culture and ink by virtue of her speaking culture.

At this time, Fang Hong remembered that when she was in the charcoal cellar, Xiaoqing said that maybe Fang Hong would be able to see her grandmother soon, maybe never again. In this way, the old lady in front of her is Xiaoqing's grandmother.

Fang Hong sat opposite the old lady and thought wildly, but pretended not to show his face. He remembered Xiaoqing's words, no one asked anything, he didn't have to speak, even if someone asked, he could not answer.

The old lady moved her body and looked at Fang Hong and said, "Hey! Only people like the little brother can safely enter from the outside to the inside, and they can also do it in front of me and wait for tea! ”

The old lady said such words, I am afraid that even a fool can hear the terrifying meaning in it.

Fang Hong just smiled and didn't talk.

The old lady said, "I don't know how the little brother met Qingzhu!"

Fang Hong finally said humbly: "I went to the teahouse to drink tea!"

The old lady said, "So, if you don't know Qingzhu, will you come to Zhushan?"

Fang Hong said, "Yes!"

The old lady said, "So, didn't Qingzhu make an appointment with you in advance to come here?"

"I didn't have an appointment, and I didn't expect to meet Xiaoqing outside!" Fang Hong said.

The old woman said, "So, why did you come to Zhushan?"

Fang Hong said: "I'm here to find medicine!"

The old lady moved her body again and said, "How do you know that there is medicine here?"

Fang Hong said: "Before, I was just guessing. ”

The old lady said: "Let's not talk about outside the province, don't talk about outside the county, just say that there are many mountains in Dazhuang Township, why do you only think about this mountain?"

Fang Hong said: "Because the medicine I am looking for is a kind of bamboo flower called Banzhu flower, and as far as I know, in the township and county, only Xizhushan has the most kinds of bamboo!"

The old lady's originally serious expression turned into a kind one, and she sighed and said, "What a fate! Do you think there are spotted bamboo flowers here?"

Fang Hong said: "I don't know, but in the township and county, if you want to find spotted bamboo flowers, here is the greatest hope!"

When Fang Hong said this, she wanted to ask the old lady if she had seen a spotted bamboo flower here. But Xiaoqing had reminded him not to take the initiative to ask anything here, so he was silent again.

The old lady seemed to see Fang Hong's thoughts, and finally said with a smile: "Then, why don't you ask me if I have seen the spotted bamboo flower here?

Fang Hong still said humbly: "If there is still a master on this mountain, this master should be your old man!"

There was a smile in the old man's eyes, and she said, "Then why don't you ask me?"

Fang Hong smiled and said: "I have just explained my intention, if you want to tell me, you don't need me to ask, you will tell; if you don't want to tell me, even if I ask, not only will you not tell, but you will be unhappy!" It is a sin for a young man to upset an old man! ”

Hearing Fang Hong's words, the old lady's originally frosty face actually smiled, and she said with pleasure in her voice: "Now I understand why Qingzhu is so protective of you!" A young person like you, no matter who is with you, will not be much of a bother! ”

Fang Hong smiled: "How can you see it?"

The old lady said seriously: "You don't know, Qingzhu has never been angry with Hei Er, but just now Hei Er was rude to you, she was obviously angry, not only angry with Hei Er, but also angry with me!"

Fang Hong smiled bitterly: "If Xiaoqing really protected me, she wouldn't be outside watching me sweating profusely from being entangled in black!"

The old lady smiled: "If you can't pass the level outside!" Qingzhu will not protect you! ”

When the old lady said this, Xiaoqing floated to the side of the coffee table like a cloud. I saw her gently put two pots of tea on the coffee table and said with a smile: "Grandma, you seem to be saying bad things about others, why haven't I seen you laugh like this every time I come to see you?"

The old lady also smiled: "Little girl, every time you come here, I haven't seen you get angry with Hei Er and Grandma!"

Xiaoqing smiled: "Didn't I bring the tea?"

The old lady said, "Is this tea drunk by Grandma and I alone?"

"If Grandma can finish drinking this pot of tea alone, we can eat and drink tea with you!" Xiaoqing said with a smile.

The old lady looked serious and said, "All right! I drink tea, you eat! Speaking of this, he glanced at Xiaoqing slyly.

Seeing that Xiaoqing's originally happy smiling face became indifferent, the old lady smiled again: "Look at your face, is it the face of sincerity to let Grandma drink this pot of tea?" Why doesn't Lao Guo still serve us food? Could it be that we want to make a meal for lunch and dinner! ”

Xiaoqing said: "He wants to drink tea with us first!"

The old lady said slyly, "Yo! Didn't you just say that this pot of tea was for me to drink alone?"

Xiaoqing said coquettishly: "Grandma-look at you today...... It's really unreasonable! ”

The old lady laughed. Xiaoqing used a stainless steel pinch to turn over the teacup on the dragon-shaped root carved coffee table.

This is a stone grinding carved Shih Tzu purple sand cup, the outside is slightly rough and the inside is smooth, shiny but not dazzling, and the feel is not easy to slip.

Fang Hong also noticed that the teapot that Xiaoqing had just put on the coffee table had a small glass pot, which should be a teapot with sterilized ordinary tea. And the other pot is an extraordinary product, is a rare stone mill hand-painted large Shih Tzu purple sand pot on the market, this purple sand pot is different from other purple sand pots in the place: although this purple sand pot is a stone grind, but not smoothed, leaving a layer of sesame dots on the appearance, the sesame dots are engraved with lifelike Shih Tzu tea patterns, which looks smart and beautiful, and has a charming posture. It is difficult for anyone to imagine that this Zhushan has such an expensive tea set.

Although Xiaoqing's operation steps before drinking tea are the same as Fang Hong's, the techniques are more sophisticated and skillful. The white-skinned little hand holds the tweezers and holds the teacup steadily. The hands, tweezers and teacup are like a whole, the movements are coherent, and the action of washing the cup and pouring the tea is soft and natural. At first glance, he is an outstanding kung fu tea hand.

Xiaoqing poured half a cup for the old lady first, then half a cup for Fang Hong, and then half a cup for herself.

"Grandma, Brother Fang, drink tea first!" Xiaoqing said and drank it all, like drinking!

The old lady also drank it all, as if drinking.

Fang Hong picked up the teacup and saw that the color of the tea was yellow and red and shiny, but she refused to touch her lips.

Xiao Qing said with a smile: "Brother Fang shouldn't suspect that the tea is poisonous, right?

"Where, where!" Fang Hong said and drank it all.

The tea passed through his throat, and Fang Hong's eyes that were as bright as stars and moon were about to straighten!

After Fang Hong was discharged from the army, he traveled to West Lake in Hangzhou, Huangshan in Anhui, first-line natural insurance in Fujian and Erhai in Yunnan. I have drunk the West Lake Longjing, which is known for its green, fragrant, sweet taste, and beautiful shape, and has tasted the Dongting Spiral Spring that is resistant to foam, full of luster, and has a strong fragrance, and has tasted Maojian, Oolong, Yinzhen, Maofeng, Tieguanyin, and other famous teas with different colors and flavors, but I have never tasted Xiaoqing's more beautiful tea taste.

"Don't you have a good mouth, Brother Fang?" Xiao Qing said calmly to Fang Hong, who was stunned.

Fang Hong woke up like a dream, and sighed a little stupidly: "This tea, the five flavors are sweet and pure, and the six flavors are bitter and fragrant. It can be said that it is the best treasure in tea! Although I have drunk a lot of famous tea, I have never tasted such a special tea taste!"

"But, what kind of tea is this tea called?" Fang Hong said blankly.

"Brother Fang, this tea is called Sanzhixiang. Xiaoqing said with a smile. And add half a cup of tea to each of the three empty cups.

Fang Hong muttered, "Sanzhixiang?

Xiaoqing smiled again: "One, two, three, three, three, wisdom, wisdom, fragrance." ”

Fang Hong seemed to understand something, and also smiled and said, "It means that the results of this tea ceremony are composed of the work of three people?"

Xiaoqing smiled: "It's really effortless to talk to Brother Fang!"

Fang Hong said with a smile: "But I don't know which three people's credit, anyway, there should be your share." ”

The old lady opposite smiled and said, "That's right, this tea is composed of four parts: flowers, leaves, fruits, and roots." The recipe of the flower is the credit of the green bamboo, and the recipe of the leaves and fruits is the credit of the old fruit......" The old lady said this, looking at Fang Hong without saying anything.

Fang Hong said: "Then the recipe of the root should be the credit of your old man!"

Xiaoqing smiled and nodded, and drank the second cup of tea.

The old lady smiled and drank the second cup of tea.

Fang Hong said to the old lady again: "So this tea was originally made by your old man from the roots of a certain plant, and then the old fruit added the leaves and fruits of a certain plant, and finally Xiaoqing added the flowers of a certain plant, right?"

The old lady still smiled and said, "How could Little Brother Fang think like this?"

"Most plants that grow naturally have roots first, then stems, leaves, flowers and fruits. The order in which this tea was invented should be the same, at least more so here. Fang Hong said and drank the second cup of tea.

The old lady finally laughed and said, "Hehe...... No matter who is often with someone like Brother Fang, they may live longer! Speaking of this, he glanced at Xiaoqing intentionally or unintentionally.

Xiaoqing's face immediately flushed red, and she hurriedly lifted the teapot to pour the tea. But this time, she poured four and a half cups of tea!

Fang Hongzheng was wondering, and saw another person walking out from behind carrying a square table: triangular eyes, goatee, and an obvious black letter on the left side of his face, who is this not Uncle Zhang.
