A Tree's Life as a Cultivator

Chapter 79 Spirit Tea
In the whole wooden house, apart from the huge jade spiritual planting seed cabinet, there is also a very huge Arhat bed, just to the right of the seed cabinet, there is a small table on the bed, and several wooden cabinets are neatly arranged against the wall .

I saw Manager Shi with a smile on his face leading Han Wenling and Lin Xiaoya to the Arhat's bed in the inner room. He took the lead to sit on the right side of the little table, and then called Lin Xiaoya to come and sit down.

"Teacher, little girl, come on, sit up, sit down and talk about anything."

Han Wenling unceremoniously took off his shoes, sat on the Arhat bed, moved in and called Lin Xiaoya to come and sit down.

Lin Xiaoya saw that the master and apprentice were so enthusiastic, she couldn't shirk for a while, so she took off her shoes and sat on the couch.

As if entertaining distinguished guests, Shi Guan took out the white jade tea bowl and white jade teapot that were kept in a small wooden box wrapped in silk and satin.

Then Steward Shi took out the jade pot containing the high-quality spiritual tea from the cabinet where he was sitting, and placed it beside the small table.

Under Lin Xiaoya's amazed eyes, Guanshi skillfully used his spiritual power to draw small water streams from the sky, forming circles of small and narrow tubular water streams in the air.Steward Shi tapped on the white jade teapot, and a small stream of water flowed into the teapot from the air.

When all the water flowed into the white jade teapot, Shi Guanshi put the lid on the teapot, and then he pinched and cast a spell. With a light tap on the white jade teapot, the water in the white jade teapot boiled instantly.

Then Steward Shi slowly took out a small handful of tea leaves from the jade jar, waited for a certain time, opened the lid of the teapot, sprinkled some tea leaves in the teapot, and started brewing.

Seeing that Steward Shi was so polite, Lin Xiaoya just thought that it would not cost so much to stop Steward Shi.In the next second, Senior Brother Han stopped him. He gave Lin Xiaoya a calm look, and then looked expectantly at his master's smooth tea making.

Seeing that Han Wenling stopped her, Lin Xiaoya could only sit there calmly and watch Steward Shi's tea making performance in a daze.
After a while, the tea leaves seemed to be completely soaked, exuding a strange tea fragrance, which was not as strong as peony flowers, nor as quiet as epiphyllum, but a bit like jasmine exuding a light fragrance, although light, Enticing enough.

Han Wenling sniffed the charming tea fragrance emotionally, sniffing the delicious flowers like a wild boar, staring at the teapot in Steward Shi's hand with red eyes, eager to drink it up, embarrassed for a while out of nowhere.

On the other side, Lin Xiaoya sniffed the fragrance of tea carefully, not knowing how to describe this charming tea fragrance with her shallow words.But when she saw Senior Brother Han's embarrassment exactly like that of a wild boar sniffing flowers, she couldn't help but want to laugh.

And Manager Shi also saw his apprentice's embarrassing appearance. It was obviously not the first time he drank spirit tea, and he still behaved so unsatisfactorily. He hated it for not fighting.

Then Steward Shi cast a glance at Lin Xiaoya who was sitting next to him trying to smile, seeing that she didn't seem to be lured into a gaffe by the fragrance of tea, he immediately patted his own disciple who hated iron and steel in disappointment.

Originally, Steward Shi had no idea of ​​brewing spiritual tea to entertain Lin Xiaoya, but because of his foolish apprentice's tricks, his image of a master of Baizhiyuan was completely gone.

In order to avenge Lin Xiaoya, Shi Guanshi made up his mind decisively to lure Lin Xiaoya into a loss of composure with spirit tea, and then through his own bribery and coercion to prevent her from spreading what happened just now, so as to maintain his lofty status in front of his apprentices and disciples. image.

But he never expected that not only was Lin Xiaoya not tempted to lose her composure by the scent of tea, on the contrary, her apprentice was lured by the scent of tea, as if she was drinking it for the first time.

Seeing that the development of the situation was contrary to his own original intention, Steward Shi decided not to embarrass Lin Xiaoya anymore. He was afraid that in the end only his apprentice would be humiliated.

Manager Shi poured a cup of spirit tea for Lin Xiaoya, and then handed it to her with a pleasant face. Lin Xiaoya was flattered and respectful, took the spirit tea, and put it on the small table.

And Han Wenling sat on the side, constantly urging his master to pour himself a cup of tea, eager to take a sip, even if he was beaten by the master, he didn't care much.

After Steward Shi gave them both a cup of spiritual tea, Steward Shi kindly explained the origin of the tea to them.

"This tea is called Lingqing tea. It is picked from the tender buds of a unique Lingqing tree in Baizhiyuan. It has been sun-dried and stir-fried through 81 procedures to make such a little tea. Try it quickly look!"

After all, Steward Shi picked up his teacup devoutly, took a sip of the tea, and began to savor it carefully.

And Han Wenling couldn't wait to pick up the teacup and drink it up in one gulp. He put the tea in his mouth and tasted it carefully, and then swallowed it when the taste was gone.

But Lin Xiaoya wanted to shirk when she saw that Manager Shi entertained herself with such expensive tea.Seeing Guanshi Shi and Senior Brother Han immersed in the aroma of tea, Lin Xiaoya couldn't help but want to taste it.

But at this moment, seeing that Lin Xiaoya was still drinking tea, Steward Shi urged, "Little girl, why are you still standing there, if you don't drink it quickly, the spiritual energy in the spirit tea will be gone."

Hearing Steward Shi's urging, Lin Xiaoya hurriedly prepared to drink it like Senior Brother Han, but before she could enter, she was stopped by Steward Shi.

Steward Shi continued: "Slow down, drink slowly, don't waste my tea by chewing peonies like your senior brother, drink slowly and savor carefully, only then can you understand the beauty of spirit tea."

So, Lin Xiaoya imitated the action of being a steward, and took a small sip of tea along the edge of the tea bowl, and then savored it carefully.

Lin Xiaoya savored the cup of strong fragrant tea carefully, the bitterness was sweet, and the warm liquid passed through the tip of the tongue to the throat and entered the heart.The fragrance of tea can't be stopped, like the spring breeze blowing on the spring water, causing ripples.

Although the tea leaves also contain some aura, but for Lin Xiaoya, the attraction of aura is not as good as the attraction of the tea fragrance itself.

After Lin Xiaoya savored it carefully, she couldn't help giving a thumbs up to Steward Shi, and exclaimed happily: "Old man, your tea tastes really good! You have so much taste, old man, it's the first time I've had such a tea." Good tea."

Hearing Lin Xiaoya's praise, Manager Shi couldn't help laughing happily, "Hahaha, little girl, you really have taste, I just said my tea is very good, but they don't know how to taste!"

Immediately, Steward Shi enthusiastically poured several cups of tea for Lin Xiaoya. Lin Xiaoya also learned the knowledge of tea ceremony from her grandfather, and exchanged tea ceremony with Steward Shi happily.

And because Han Wenling wasted the tea that Steward Shi painstakingly brewed like a cow chewing peonies, Steward Shi put it aside because he didn't know how to drink tea.

After a short period of communication, Guanshi Shi and Lin Xiaoya have become friends who have forgotten the age. On the one hand, he has explored the tea ceremony for hundreds of years, and on the other hand, he has learned countless tea ceremony knowledge by standing on the back of a giant with his grandfather.

In this way, Lin Xiaoya became Guanshi Shi's little friend, and Guanshi Shi became Lin Xiaoya's old friend. Seeing that it was getting late, they immediately agreed to drink tea together in the future.
