A tea fight about the world

"Yes, Beiyuan tea is Master's favorite tea!" When Yin'er said this, she couldn't help but think of her Master Ji Jing. Although Ji Jing and she were only masters and apprentices for a few years, their friendship was extremely deep.

, just like Lin Chujiang and Lin Qian.

Taking a few steps forward, I saw another old man taking out the tea cakes he had brought from the jar and concentrating on crushing them into powder, so he did not turn around to talk to them.

The old man's white hair was curled up, his sleeves were rolled up, and he was wearing straw sandals. He looked very fairy-like. Judging from his side profile, he was probably over sixty years old, and was obviously longer than the man in the green shirt.

"Huh? There must be more than a dozen kinds of these teas. Aren't they all new teas?" Yin'er looked over and asked.

"Yes, they are all collected by the old tea man. They are available in every season and everywhere." The man in green shirt answered.

"Isn't the newer the tea, the better?" Lin Qian was a layman, so he was naturally curious.

"Not necessarily. It depends on the tea. For example, black tea tastes better as it gets older." The man in green shirt smiled and shook his head.

"There are them in every season? How to distinguish them?" Lin Qian was very interested.

"Spring tea is emerald green, soft, has a fresh taste and the strongest aroma. Summer tea has different colors, a bitter taste, and a slightly lighter aroma than spring tea. Autumn tea is yellow, with a mild aroma and taste, and the leaves are brittle.

"The man in green shirt replied.

"Well, this is very similar to life." Yin'er realized it, and Lin Qian was stunned. This girl always liked to reason, but since she became pregnant, she has become more rational.

The man in green shirt was also startled, smiled and said nothing. When the tea man heard what she said, he finally turned his head and said, "Young lady is also a person who understands tea."

"Well, of course, I have been drinking it for more than ten years!" Yin'er was not ashamed of her words, and she didn't know how to be modest.

"So, girl, do you know how to evaluate the quality of tea?" The tea man turned around and asked.

Seeing his appearance, Lin Qian felt familiar, while Yin'er was shocked: This old man they had just met a few days ago was a commoner who went into the mountains to chop firewood that day, and Yu Zhang Er, Zhou Yuan'er, and Feng Tianyu didn't know each other...

...He also lost a "Shui Chi Lian" because of Lin Qian's formation breaking!

Lin Qian had never seen him directly because of the fierce battle, so he was not too surprised. However, Yin'er and the tea man had met each other, so he naturally felt that the world was really small, but the tea man was still as calm as before.

.In other words, it is still the same as it was back then, with no sense of existence and a vague sense of being a foreigner.

"I know this. When evaluating tea, we follow the rules of 'look, touch, smell, and taste'. The main thing is to taste the color, cord, wholeness, clarity, aroma, leaf base, and taste of the tea." Yin'er thought while thinking.

explain.

"?" The tea man was noncommittal, as if he was still waiting for additional information.

"..." Yin'er hurriedly pulled on Lin Qian's sleeves, hoping that he would help her. Lin Qian glared at her angrily. She was so embarrassed. She was just trying to do what she wanted. Now she must have broken her own foot!

"The tea man is asking about tea, not just tea leaves. Therefore, in addition to the color and aroma of the tea leaves, we also need to look at the tea soup and even the tea sets. These all affect the mood of the taster." Lin Qian had to help his wife.

The ax was struck crookedly. The man in green shirt smiled and nodded, with approval in his eyes.

"Oh? If the tea leaves, tea soup and tea sets are the same, how can we judge the winner in a tea competition between the two of us?" The tea man asked again, but Qian Yin was startled and couldn't answer.

Not long after, the man in green shirt seemed to have boiled the water in the bottle, so he picked a spoonful of the tea powder he had crushed in advance and put it into the tea cup. As for the tea man, he had also ground the tea.

powder, but still using a silk sieve.

Qian Yin and Qian Yin were both stunned. "So you have to be so particular about drinking tea." Yin'er sighed. "It's not just drinking tea anymore, but tasting tea." Lin Qian nodded and thought carefully about how to answer the tea man.

The man in the green shirt picked up the teapot and poured the boiling soup into the cup. Soon after, the water boiled by the tea man reached the heat. At this time, he finally finished sifting the tea powder in his hand. A little longer than the man in the green shirt, another man

The tea cup on the side was only warm at this time. The three of them reached the time together, and it felt like everything was done. However, if you are an impetuous person, you will definitely make mistakes while busy.

But I saw that the tea man was taking his time, ordering soup, warming the cup, and adjusting the ointment all at once, and finally poured the tea soup into the tea cup. Comparing it with the one in the green shirt, because the tea leaves, water and tea utensils were all the same, Qian Yin

Taking a closer look, you can see that the man in green shirt is about the same as the tea man, they are both pure white.

"The color of the soup should be pure white at the top, blue-white, gray-white, yellow-white, and so on." Yin'er recalled Ji Jing's words.

The tea man and the man in green shirt were obviously not only paying attention to the color of the soup, but also waiting for the flowers to appear. While holding their breath and concentrating, they seemed to have forgotten everything. Qian Yin had also been in this state before, competing in Yunwu Mountain...

It is a blessing to be able to bend down for one thing in life.

In an instant, the expression of the man in green shirt suddenly changed, and a hint of victory appeared on the face of the tea man. For a moment, he only looked at the tea soup of the man in green shirt, the flowers in the tea soup spread out, revealing the water line, and the tea man in the tea soup, the flowers in the tea soup

Evenly, still bite the edge of the cup, condensed and not dispersed.

"It's only a water difference," the tea man said. The man in green shirt nodded in agreement.

"One water? What does this mean?" Yin'er asked.

"'Water' is the measurement used when fighting tea." The man in green shirt answered.

"Oh, it's equivalent to our 'trick'." Yin'er smiled, "Then the key to judging tea is not only the color of the soup, but also the gathering and dispersion?"

"When fighting for tea, it's not called gathering and dispersing, but called 'biting the cup'. The one with early water marks will lose." said the man in green shirt.

"Then I understand." Yin'er nodded, "Tea leaves, tea water, and tea sets are all the same. The only difference between them is the brewing technique."

"Yes, technically speaking, 'waiting for soup' is the most difficult." The man in green shirt sighed, "Unexpectedly, I lost to the tea man again. This time it was a coincidence, and next time, I don't know when and where...

..." On the face of the tea man, there was a look of indifference that said, "I'll just let everything happen."

"The brewing technique lies in mastery. You must first understand the nature of the tea before you can know to what extent the tea leaves are ground; you must first understand the water quality before you can know the most suitable temperature for brewing tea; in addition, the tea set

It itself also needs to be heated to its optimal temperature." At this time, Lin Qian continued Yin'er's words and said.

The man in green shirt had a look of astonishment on his face: "So that's how it is..."

The tea man finally showed a smile: "With this kind of understanding, he is worthy of drinking hatred for Dao Linqian."

"Oh? Your Excellency, you are Lin Qian, the ally king of the Southern Song Dynasty Wulin?!" The man in green shirt was stunned and looked at Lin Qian in surprise.

When Lin Qian Yin'er heard the tea man reveal his identity, they were all surprised. He was indeed a secretive master! While Lin Qian was alert, he also recalled that just now he used tea as a metaphor. Could it be that he was trying to argue with himself?

Shi? Is he really just a hermit? Could he be an enemy?!

Lin Qian had a thought in his mind. If the tea man was an enemy, he must have known his identity when he saw him fighting with the three Shulu brothers that day, and thus informed the Jin army. In this way, Huang Lai and Wanyan Yonglian would definitely be involved.

Net set up ambush…

...! I never imagined that I would be just like the three Shulu brothers back then. Although I really wanted to succeed, my plan was tied to the identity of a passer-by. However, that day, he was in Ming Dynasty with the three Shulu brothers, and the tea man was very jealous of him.

It's dark!

Thinking of the entire chess game in Tai'an and Jinan, there were such omissions. It was unprecedented. Lin Qian was sweating profusely at that time: Ashamed, ashamed. He said that he wanted to grasp the overall situation, but there were still some omissions! This may be the tea master's way of fighting over tea.

Lessons for yourself?

However, although it was an omission, it may not be a mistake. Whether it succeeds or not depends on the tea man. Just imagine that if he is really an enemy, he may not reveal it now... So Lin Qian observed the tea man's words and demeanor, and judged how likely it was that he was an enemy.

Success, calm and determined, act according to the opportunity. Half open, half vigilant, one is nature, the other is rebel.

"Zihe, according to Yinhendao Linqian, you should do everything with your heart. The most important thing is to seize the opportunity and understand the overall situation. Therefore, it is natural for you to lose to me in the tea fight." At this time, the tea man laughed.

road.

The man in green shirt nodded: "I am convinced that I have lost."

Lin Qian heard that "Zihe" was Zhang Congzheng's character, and he thought it looked more and more similar the more he looked at it. At this moment, he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Your Excellency is the number one in the Jin Dynasty, Zhang Congzheng is the miracle doctor?!" Putting aside other thoughts for the time being, it is the most important thing to seek medical treatment at the moment.

It's important.

The man in green shirt smiled: "No wonder it's such a coincidence, it turns out that the alliance king came here to seek medical treatment." He stood up and looked at Lin Qian attentively. At that time, the concentration and care on his face was like that of a tea master just now,

It's just like Lin Qian used to fight with knives.

Zhang Congzheng looked at Lin Qian and frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, Lin Qian couldn't wait and pulled Yin'er to him: "I brought my wife here to seek medical treatment!"

"Uncle Zhang, woo hoo, Shui Chi Lian..." At this moment, a girl's voice came. She turned her head and saw a girl running towards him while rubbing her eyes.

"Huh? Why is Yinzi crying like this? What happened to Shui Chi's practice?" Zhang Congzheng showed some affection and motioned Qian Yin to wait for him for a moment before heading in the direction of the girl.

"I was scared away by a bad guy!" The girl cried until her nose was red. When she saw Qian Yin and the others, she was frightened, anxious and angry: "That's the bad guy! I helped him, but he scared Shui Chilian away.
