At this time, Tang Guoguo was completely unaware of the boy's careful thoughts behind him, and his whole attention was completely attracted by the Sencha teacher in front of him.

The teacher wears a multi-ringed bun on both sides of his head, and is wearing a round-neck gown with a honey-colored baoxiang flower, a belt and a long knife around his waist, just like a maid in the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty.

Seeing that everyone was staring at her, she respectfully gave a Tang Dynasty cross-hand salute:

"Welcome to Qinglin Tea House, everyone. I will give you a demonstration of this Tang Dynasty fried tea experience class. If there are any deficiencies during this period, please correct me."

After finishing her speech, she knelt and sat in front of the tea table in front of several students, and started the introduction before the demonstration:

"According to the legend, tea was discovered when Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs. In the Han Dynasty, tea had been spread from Bashu to the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and it had been widely planted in the south during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. But in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, it was popular in the Tea in the south is not very suitable for cheese drinkers and northerners. It was not until Lu Yu in the Tang Dynasty wrote the book "The Classic of Tea" based on the experience of tea making and drinking in the Tang Dynasty that tea began to become a discipline. Learning. With the collection of tea tax after the mid-Tang Dynasty and the rise of the tea-horse trade, tea culture was also born in the Tang Dynasty.”

Tang Guoguo, who was sitting at the front, listened most carefully, and didn't even notice the message on WeChat.

Cheng Bo hesitated for a long time, but still sent the photo to Tang Guoguo.

And after learning that she was also going to participate in the ancient architecture competition, but she had no confidence at all, she also sent her ancient architectural surveying and mapping notes.

But he waited foolishly for a long while, but he didn't see the other party's reply, so he put away his phone again and listened to the teacher's lecture seriously.

"The custom of drinking tea in the Song Dynasty originated from the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, tea was an indispensable drink in daily life for the emperors and generals, and for the common people in the villages. Not only did they treat guests with tea, but also used tea as a matchmaker. The custom of waiting for tea ceremony became popular since the Song Dynasty, and the customs of fighting tea and sharing tea also became popular in the Song Dynasty. Drinking tea, for Song people, can be regarded as entertainment and spiritual enjoyment. Song'. But today, we will focus on the tea culture of the Tang Dynasty."

After the teacher finished speaking, he clapped his hands beside his ears again.

Subsequently.

Two teams of young girls in Tang-made Ru skirts came in through the side door holding trays, and placed the tea cakes and tea sets of various shapes on the trays on the tea tables of the students in turn.

"And the tea in the Tang Dynasty is not the loose tea that we often see now. Unlike Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, who changed the cake tea into fried green tea, the tea in the Tang Dynasty needs to be picked during Qingming, and then steamed in a 'high temperature and short time'. Then pound it with a pestle, put it into a mold, and press it into a cake. The shaped cake will be perforated by the Tang people, put on a two-layer wooden frame, baked, counted, and finally put into a box-shaped tool with a brazier underneath. Baking and sealing, in this way, the cake tea in front of us is formed."

As the teacher picked up a porcelain dish, the students also began to look at the cake and tea in the porcelain dish.

This tea cake is round and flat, and looks no different from modern Pu-erh tea cakes.

"During the Tang Dynasty, tea drinking began to be popular among the people, and the era of proper tea drinking began. But the tea drinking method of the Tang people is mainly fried tea. You can follow me and take it step by step."

After showing the cake and tea, she ordered someone to light the charcoal stove next to the students:

"There are four steps in making tea. One is burning tea, which is the process of processing cake tea into fine particles."

After she finished speaking, she picked up the tea cake with green bamboo clips and put it on the charcoal stove to roast, and other students followed suit.

"Yan tea is divided into three processes: roasting, grinding, and drying."

Taking advantage of this gap, the teacher looked up at the students again, and continued to introduce the precautions of the process:

"What we are doing now is the roasting tea in the step of burning tea. The purpose of this step is to dry the water in the tea cake and use fire to force out the aroma of the tea. It should be noted that when roasting the tea cake, you cannot Roast in a ventilated place or use embers of fire; charcoal is the best fuel, but firewood with strong firepower can also be used; and it must be turned continuously during this period. When the tea cake is baked with bumps like the back of a toad, it should be removed from the fire Five inches, continue to bake until the curled tea cake gradually loosens, and then repeat the previous steps."

The students roasted the cakes and tea patiently, but the slow fire heated up very slowly, and they couldn't hold on with one hand, so they changed the other hand.

Tang Guoguo stared intently at the tea cake, refusing to let go of any changes in the tea cake.

It wasn't until there was a hint of tea fragrance that the teacher said leisurely: "Next, the most critical step is to put the fragrant cake tea while it is hot in the paper bag at hand, so that it will not leak its fragrance. "

Watching the teacher put the cake and tea in the paper bag in a hurry, Tang Guoguo held the paper bag with one hand and held the tea cake in the other, and followed suit.

But the hand holding the bamboo clip was already sore. When she turned her wrist, the bamboo clip uncontrollably released a gap, and Cake Tea took the opportunity to escape from her clutches.

"After the cake tea has cooled, the next step is to grind the tea."

The teacher was introducing the tools for grinding tea wholeheartedly, but Tang Guoguo leaned over to pick up the fallen tea cake with a bamboo tong.Unexpectedly, this cake tea is very naughty, the more she squeezes, the farther away she is from herself.

Seeing that Cake Tea was about to run to the teacher's feet, Tang Guoguo suddenly felt someone slap her on the back.

She looked back.

Cheng Bo was still the same as before, holding half a piece of cooled cake and tea, and beckoning her to take it with a smile.This time, Tang Guoguo was not polite, and took it with a smile.

Fortunately, there were no mistakes in the next steps of grinding the tea and sifting through the fine sieve. Looking at the tea powder in the tea box, which was as fine as rice grains, Tang Guoguo felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

At this time, the water in the water pot on the stove has already boiled for the first time.

The most exciting step of sencha begins.

"You can add the right amount of salt and spices to taste according to the amount of water."

Tang Guoguo didn't add anything other than salt. After following the teacher's instructions, Tang Guoguo saw continuous bubbles appearing from the edge of her water pot. She knew it was the second boiling of the water.

Immediately scooped out a ladle of boiling water, and kept stirring it around the pot with tea chopsticks.

Every time she stirs it, she holds her breath, fearing that there will be another accident, until the water vortex appears in the pot, she still dare not relax.According to the teacher's instruction, she put a spoonful of tea powder into the center of the water vortex, and then continued to stir gently.

"When the tea soup appears 'momentum and splashing', pour back the scoop of boiling water that was originally scooped out."

Following the teacher's order, Tang Guoguo also swallowed the boiling water.

"There will be mobo in the pot, that is, soup flowers. Now, we can share tea and drink."

Tang Guoguo scooped out three more bowls of tea as required, waiting to drink.

"Lu Yu believes that the essence of tea soup is the foam on the soup. Thin ones are called foam, thick ones are called buns, and thin and light ones are called flowers."

After the teacher finished distributing the tea, he picked up the first bowl and drank it with the students from a distance:
"The name of this first bowl of tea soup is Junyong. It means the taste will last forever, that is, the best tea soup. However, only the first three bowls of tea made in a pot are the best, and no more than five bowls. Because everyone The condiments that are put in the tea are different, so the timelessness of each person is also different, just like this life, the ups and downs are all timeless. Let us taste this bowl of timeless taste, and then express our opinions. "

After she finished speaking, she leaned over and said with a smile, "Please!"

"Please!"

Tang Guoguo breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the bowl of "Yuan Yong" which was burnt black in color and thin in soup, and responded loudly with the other students, and drank it in his mouth.

But as soon as the tea soup was in the mouth, everyone present except Mr. Sencha had different expressions.

Tang Guoguo hastily rinsed his mouth with mineral water.

A girl exclaimed in a low voice: "I finally know why it is called tea soup. This tea really tastes like soup."

"Yeah, I put pepper in it just now!"

"But I think it tastes like bamboo shoot soup, it's not bad!~"

The girls in the wing room were exchanging ideas with each other, but Cheng Bo approached Tang Guoguo's tea case and asked, "Tang Guoguo, what does your tea taste like? Why don't you buy me a bowl?"

"You better stop drinking."

Not listening to Tang Guoguo's refusal, Cheng Bo picked up a bowl and drank it all in one gulp. Then, like Tang Guoguo, he drank his own mineral water and asked in shock:

"How much salt did you put in your tea soup?"

"Not a lot." Tang Guoguo glanced at the porcelain dish filled with salt shyly, "With a shake of hand, I put it all in."

"What?!" Cheng Bo almost jumped up.

"I even told you not to drink it!"

"That's right, I don't blame you." Cheng Bo scratched his head, and then pushed his tea soup to Tang Guoguo, "Then you drink mine, and give me a review."

"Well, okay." Tang Guoguo was very happy.

Just as the students were exchanging tea soup with each other, talking and laughing, they heard a sudden noisy sound outside the door.

One of the female voices was crying tremblingly:
"Grandma! Don't scare me, grandma! Wake up!"

"Call an ambulance!"

Immediately afterwards, the door of the wing room was knocked open with a bang by a tall, thin tomboy.She rushed in recklessly, scanning everyone present.

Gu Zhaodi's eyes were red at this moment, and before he had time to greet Tang Guoguo, he shouted loudly:
"Is there anyone who knows cardiopulmonary resuscitation!!! Come out and save people!!!"

"Me! I'm from the health school!!" A girl in the farthest corner said and got up and rushed out.
