Chapter 196: Roaring and Initiation
Wang Donkey said: "The exquisiteness of the tea saint is really eye-opening. I guess it's a chrysanthemum cup?"
"Not bad!" Shui Ling'er said and took a pair of golden chrysanthemum cups, "Chrysanthemum is proud of frost and cold, and it is of the highest quality among flowers, so this second tea with the most mellow taste should be chrysanthemum cup." The cup of this chrysanthemum cup is a double-petaled chrysanthemum, and the cup is in hand, such as holding a blooming chrysanthemum, so that it has the wonder of containing Yingzuihua. ”
She said as she took a pair of smooth and moist white jade cups, and said with a smile: "The orchid is noble and clean, and the fragrance is light and far-reaching, which is in line with the tea taste of this third tea." ”
Fluttershy was amazed: "I can't imagine that there are so many ways to eat tea later, I don't know what else to pay attention to." Sweeping his eyes, he saw Lu Guang and Wang Donkey stroking the golden cup and jade cup, and their faces were full of indifference.
"Miss Ling'er said it well!" Lu Guang saw that the fire under the stove was about to be extinguished, but Shui Ling'er slowly took the water in the soup bottle and simmered the tea cup, so he was a little impatient, "Please Miss Shui hurry up and order tea." ”
"Tea must come from water, and very good tea must be cooked with very good water. ”
Shui Ling'er smiled leisurely, "Mr. Lu, do you know which is the first spring in the world?"
Lu Guang smiled: "This is difficult for me, back then, the Tang Dynasty celebrity Liu Boshu commented on the world's famous springs, and personally determined the spring water in the Yangtze River as the first." It's just that Nazhongling Spring is located at the foot of Shidan Mountain in the heart of the Yangtze River, which is difficult to draw. ”
Shui Ling'er smiled: "Who said it was difficult to extract, didn't I send someone to get it?" said and took out a small bamboo tripod from his arms, but listened to the sound of the water gurgling.
Lu Guang exclaimed: "The water level of Zhongling Spring is extremely low, and it has been covered by the rapid whirlpool of the river, but how did you get it?"
Shui Ling'er said: "Others can't take it, but my Netherworld Ghost Mansion has a way." To get this water, you need to take a boat to the stone in the center of the river, decorate the copper bottle with a long rope of several zhang, and go deep into the grotto to get it. The copper bottle has a special machine inside, and the size is good. It should be just right, slightly inferior to the law, that is, the true taste of non-Zhongling spring water. ”
The crowd listened to the chord. Shui Ling'er said again: "It's just that although the water in this Zhongling spring is good, but after a long journey here, the water has sunk, and you have to wash it!"
"Can the water still be washed?" even Wang Donkey couldn't help but open his eyes.
"Yes!" Shui Ling'er looked like a bamboo in her chest as usual, and said with a smile, "Wash the water with water, without losing its taste!"
She asked Wang Donkey's servant to fetch a small urn and gently poured the Zhongling spring water into it first. A water mark was made on the urn. Then let the servant fill the jug with the fresh local spring water, pour it into the urn one by one, and stir it as he poured. After a while, the water in the large urn finally cleared and calmed.
Shui Ling'er asked the servant to pour out the floating water on the small urn according to the original scratch.
"Is the floating water on this really Zhongling Spring Water?" Lu Guang was suspicious, "The two waters are mixed together, how can they be separated from each other?"
Shui Ling'er said: "The water is beautiful with light and sweetness! The lighter the water, the better its taste." Zhongling spring water is the first spring in the world, and the water quality must be light. Nature will float on the surface. As he spoke, he poured the spring water into the soup bottle and simmered on the fire.
"Well said, well said!" Lu Guang patted his head again and again, as if he had been empowered.
Wang Donkey looked at the poured Zhongling spring water. It was as clear as jade, thick as elixir, and couldn't help laughing: "It's wonderful, it's wonderful, with this wonderful method of washing water." The old man can collect all the famous springs in the world here!"
Fluttershy saw that Shui Ling'er hadn't cooked tea yet, but was just talking about the tea ceremony and tasting the water, which made Wang Donkey heartily impressed. couldn't help but smile secretly: "Ling'er has spent a lot of effort to help me a stranger, it's rare for her to calculate so clearly one by one!"
He suddenly thought that when he was sick in Yunzhu Temple that day, it was also Mo Xuanxuan who made that delicious fish soup for his injury. The situation is suddenly in front of you, and it is so similar!
Thinking like this, I felt a trance, a wisp of clear and pure, light and leisurely tea fragrance floated over, Insect Fluttershy was refreshed, only to know that the spring water in the soup bottle was boiling, but saw Shui Ling'er holding the soup bottle in her left hand, waving the tea whisk in her right hand, and was pouring water to boil.
There was a sudden silence in the room. Lu Guang and Wang Donkey knew that now was the critical moment for the Seven Soups Tea Method.
The tea whisk is carved from white jade, which is just the same as Shui Ling'er's white jade fingers and moist wrists.
As her fingers swirled around her wrist, the jade whisk stirred up and down, and the tea paste in the golden lotus cup tumbled with the water, lustring like a sparse star and a bright moon.
Shui Ling'er sat quietly with deep eyes, only a pair of plain hands beating and busy like wearing flowers and jade butterflies.
Wisps of heat drilled out of the slender mouth of the golden soup bottle swirled and scattered between her long jet-black hair, slender jade neck, and orchid-like jade fingers, like smoke clouds.
In Fluttershy's eyes, her whole being is like a bright moon, like a dream, shining brightly.
In an instant, the fragrance of tea rose from the heart, and Shui Ling'er held the two cups of tea ordered in front of Wang Donkey's master and apprentice, and said with a smile: "The little woman is ugly, please ask the doctor Wang Pinding!"
Wang Donkey's eyes were shining, he took the cup in his hand, looked at it carefully, and nodded: "The soup bites the cup, and it is really a three-flavor hand for tea!"
He took a long breath, sipped slowly, closed his eyes for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Okay! Longtuan Shengxue is a must, Zhongling spring water is a must, the four immortal tea sets are a must, but the most unique thing is you, the tea saint 'high disciple'!
"Thank you seniors for your love!" Shui Ling'er's jade-like forehead was still sweating, but when she saw Wang Donkey's Tao Ran, she felt infinitely happy in her heart, and she was even more energetic, changed the golden chrysanthemum, and then teaed with tea.
When Wang Donkey saw the two of them for the first time today, his eyes were roaring, full of shelves, and he smelled the fragrance of tea at the moment, but he seemed to have become a child, and there was only a surprise light in his eyes.
In the end, when he picked up the magnolia cup, Wang Donkey was a little reluctant to give up, sniffing slowly, and he was still unsatisfied.
"Mingzong, this old man, has not done a few good things in his life," Wang Donkey put down the magnolia cup, his face was as intoxicated as drinking alcohol, "but his seven-soup tea method is really good! Hehe, the emperor of the Ming Zhu family doesn't have a few good goods, but look at their face of carrying forward the tea ceremony, the old man will scold him a few words!"
Fluttershy still scolded the Ming Dynasty when she heard him say it, and she couldn't help but laugh in her heart. Wang Donkey suddenly looked at him and said, "Boy, I heard that you went to Xiaoxiang Palace alone?"
When Donkey enters the house, his mind is all about tea, and Fluttershy doesn't want him to talk to Fluttershy first.
"That's good!" Fluttershy nodded, "Enter the Xiaoxiang Palace first, and then enter the Holy Maiden Altar!"
"You dare to break into the Holy Maiden Altar?" Wang Donkey's eyes flashed, and he raised his thumbs, "Amazing! Heroes have been young since ancient times! Amazing! Amazing! You really look like the old man back then!" (To be continued......
