Chapter 339 Drinking Moonlight Tea, Exploring the Secret of Tea(1/2)

Walking on the noisy street, passing through the noisy crowd, I suddenly walked into an inconspicuous tea shop on the street.

Yi Ran, who has only ever drank alcohol, naturally had a different purpose when he walked into the tea shop.

"Old man, bring me the best tea you have here."

"Okay, this young hero!"

After a while, a cup of tea with a medicinal fragrance was served.

"Young hero, this is the tea you asked for. In addition, we will also give you a plate of peanuts and a shortbread."

"Young hero, you are also here for the moonlight grass. Then I have to tell you about the moonlight tea that is unique to our Nanshan City!"

In order to fill up a cup of tea, Yiran raised the teacup and sniffed it gently between his nose. A refreshing fragrance immediately made Yiran feel refreshed and swept away the coldness brought by the white snow.

When the old man saw Yiran's appearance, he immediately began to introduce his tea skillfully.

"Although objectively speaking, there is no piece of tea grass in the pot, but do you know what kind of tea grass is used to make this tea?"

Yi Ranqing raised her eyebrows and asked pretending to be curious: "Is it possible that you still use moonlight grass to make tea? That is a sixth-level spiritual grass, and any one of it is worth hundreds of thousands of gold coins!"

The old man laughed, without any intention of hiding anything:

"Everyone in the world knows that Moonlight Grass is a sixth-level spiritual grass, but this kind of spiritual grass that does not need to be mature and can be used as medicine still has medicinal properties."

"I think this is also the first time for young hero to come to Nanshan City. If this trip is to go to Crescent Lake to look for moonlight grass, then the old man can talk to young hero."

There were no other customers in the tea shop, but Yiran asked for the best tea as soon as he came in, which aroused the bored old man's appetite for talking.

Yiran entered the tea shop not to drink tea, but because she smelled the medicinal fragrance of moonlight grass and wanted to find out.

But Yiran herself didn't expect that she would discover the source of the medicinal fragrance after just ordering a cup of tea.

And this tea shop actually uses moonlight grass to make tea. Even Yiran doesn't know whether to say that the shop is extravagant or that the moonlight grass is too ordinary and has become a waste on the street.

Yiran filled a cup of tea for the old man, then pushed the cup in front of the old man, and then said softly:

"Since I'm not too busy with my business, why not sit down and talk to my juniors while drinking my own free tea!"

The old man had a troubled look on his face. He looked at the tea in front of him and wanted to sit down, but he didn't dare to sit down.

"Old man, since I know this is tea brewed from moonlight grass, I know its value. Whether you drink this cup of tea or not, I will definitely pay you the same amount."

"So there's no need for you to be so coy. It's actually very uncomfortable."

After hearing this, the old man sat down and immediately drank half a cup of moonlight tea in a big sip.

In just a moment, the old man felt comfortable all over his body. When he closed his eyes, he felt an indescribable feeling of comfort.

After a while, the old man said leisurely:

"It's not that I'm unhappy, young hero, you have also seen that the real moonlight tea we have here is worth thousands of gold."

"Even some wealthy families in Nanshan City are reluctant to use moonlight grass to make tea. Only my tea stall can enjoy this."

"But I also understand that the value of this tea is too high. A pot of three thousand gold coins, and this small cup costs almost three to five hundred gold coins, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

Yiran looked at the Moonlight Tea, which had almost no color, but had a faint fragrance of tea, nodded and agreed:

"Using moonlight grass to make tea is a luxury. But if a pot of tea only costs three thousand gold, it is still fair."

The old man nodded and continued:

"Moonlight grass is a unique spiritual grass in Yueya Lake. Old man, my ten ancestors were from Nanshan City two hundred years ago. I can say that I have a very deep understanding of moonlight grass."

"Today I had a chance to meet my little friend, and I wanted to give him some tea, so I told him about the mystery behind it."

When Yiran heard this, he immediately stood up and raised the teapot with both hands to fill the old man's tea, and then said:

"You keep talking."

The old man looked at the tea in the cup, his eyes became deep, and he said lightly:

"Moonlight Herb is born in six stages every ten years, but the effectiveness of Moonlight Herb that is perfect after one year and ten years is completely different."

"If the first-year-old moonlight herb has a potency of one, the second-year-old has a potency of two, the third-year-old has a potency of four, the fourth-year-old has a potency of six, and the potency of the ninth-year-old herb only increases by two points per year."

"But as long as ten years are completed, the efficacy of moonlight grass will directly become 100% of the medicinal efficacy, which is 100."

"The last time Moonlight Grass with 100% full medicinal efficacy appeared was ten years ago. At that time, it caused a sensation in the entire Nanshan City when it was brought back."

"Young hero, do you know the price of that moonlight grass?"

Yiran thought for a moment and then said:

"Ordinary sixth-level spiritual materials start with 100,000 gold coins, and top-level spiritual materials only cost 150,000 to 60,000 gold coins."

"Since my father-in-law asked this, I'll be honest. Could it be that that moonlight grass can still be sold for 200,000 gold coins?"

The old man tapped his fingers on the table, then dipped some tea in his cup and wrote "Twenty-five" on the table.

After finishing writing, the old man seemed to think of the moonlight tea and immediately took another sip of it distressedly.

Yiran also took a breath. The sixth-level spiritual grass actually cost 250,000 gold coins. This was definitely beyond Yiran's expectations and beyond the value of the moonlight grass.

"This junior has learned the lesson. But I don't know how old the moongrass used in this moonlight tea is?"

The old man said with some shyness:

"Only a fourth-year student..."

At this moment, several people walked past the tea stall and pointed at the tea stall:

"Hey, I don't know where this fool comes from to drink tea. He is really stupid and has a lot of money."

"That's right, who would be so luxurious as to use moonlight grass as a rare spiritual material to make tea? Even if he is making tea, he knows how many pots of tea he can brew with one moonlight grass, and how many gold coins does a pot of tea cost?"

"No more, no more, we can't let that useless old guy starve to death. After all, the person who took advantage of him also spent his money voluntarily."

The two of them spoke not loudly, but they deliberately let Yiran and the old man at the tea stall hear.

The old man looked embarrassed, but Yiran still sipped the tea with an expressionless expression.

"Don't listen to their nonsense. Young hero, you have tasted this moonlight tea yourself. Don't you know whether there is moonlight grass in it?"

"These gangsters either don't have the courage to enter the Warcraft Forest, or they have no luck finding the Moonlight Grass."

"Seeing that I am a lonely person who has no practice, and I can't find the moonlight grass, I always come to trouble the old man."

"One moment he slandered me and said the price was high, the next moment he said there was no moongrass in the tea, and even more outrageous was the false accusation that I used other garbage spiritual herbs to pass off as moongrass."

The extremely angry old man slapped his hand on the table, and immediately a few peanuts jumped to the ground.

The old man's face turned red, and it was obvious that the slap had already caused severe pain.

But he held it back and did not cry out, just because the spilled moonlight tea made him feel more heartache than physical pain.

Yiran smiled and slapped a gold card with a face value of three thousand on the table, and drank the few moonshine tea left in the pot in one gulp.

When he walked out of the tea shop, he turned to the old man and said:

"I don't know my father-in-law's name? This tea must be moonlight tea, which is good. I wonder if this junior will come over and bother me in the past few days."

Some old people who regretted not retaining guests were relieved and relaxed and said:

"I, Dong Li, thank you so much for your trust, young hero. The old man will definitely be waiting for the distinguished guests to come to your door!"

Yiran didn't look back, waved directly to Dong Li, and then walked into the snow.

Dong Li looked at Yiran's back disappearing into the snow and drank the last half cup of moonlight tea in one gulp.

He only felt a hot feeling spreading throughout his body, making him, an old man without any cultivation skills, no longer immune to the wind and snow.





Yiran knew very well that the moonlight tea was not fake. Even in the records about moonlight grass that Yiran found, the moonlight grass used to brew moonlight tea was definitely more than four years old.

And the old man named Dong Li had no cultivation at all, so there was no way he could be the Moonlight Grass he was looking for on his own.

So there is definitely a lot of secrets hidden in Dong Li, but Yiran doesn't care because he just thinks the tea here is pretty good.

As for why those people were jealous of Dong Li, you don't need to think about it.

They have pretty good cultivation. They even dared to venture to Crescent Lake, but they never found Moonlight Grass.

But Dong Li, an old man with some inconvenience in his hands and feet, got the moonlight grass they dreamed of from nowhere.

No one will be convinced by this kind of thing.

They have never seen real moongrass, so they don't know the medicinal fragrance of moongrass.

Moreover, in Nanshan City, they did not dare to do anything to Dong Li, so they could only live with their words.

In my heart, I am jealous of the moonlight tea, and I am also jealous of the gold card with a denomination of 3,000.





In the wind and snow, Yiran followed the noise and came to the outside of a similarly simple house.

Even the white snow in the sky cannot cover up the lively atmosphere inside the house.
