"Try it first, Junior Brother Hanshui." On the south side of the Discipline Academy, in a quiet room filled with fragrant mist, Zhao Hong and Xuan Xinzi sat cross-legged opposite each other, with a table in between. On the table is Xuan Xinzi's newly brewed fragrant tea. "Thank you, senior brother." Zhao Hong smiled slightly, stretched out his hands, and took the cup of fragrant tea handed over by his senior brother, Taoist Xuanxin. He squinted his eyes and savored the aroma of the tea, then brought the tea to his lips, took a sip, and then closed his eyes. It took a while before he opened it. "How?" Taoist Xuanxin asked. "The taste is very bad. It is a waste to send this high-quality ice needle ginkgo to my senior brother," Zhao Hong said. "Seriously?" Taoist Xuanxin asked next. "Seriously." Zhao Hong then replied. After that, neither of them spoke, they just looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes. After a long time, Xuan Xinzi couldn't help it, and the corners of his mouth turned up and he laughed. When he smiled, Zhao Hong couldn't help but smile. It can be seen that the relationship between the two senior brothers has become quite good in recent times. Although at the beginning, Xuanyang Taoist made a roar and locked Xuan Xinzi with a thousand-year heavy iron trap. However, it was impossible for the top and bottom leaders of the Discipline Academy to be serious, so they regarded their uncle as a criminal and threw them into a dark prison. Things like being deprived of food and tortured every day will never happen. In fact, Taoist Xuanxin and Zhao Hong lived really well in the Discipline Academy. In addition to not being able to walk around and being slightly restricted in freedom, other food and treatment are in accordance with the highest standards. Even the Taoist Xuanyang in charge of the Discipline Academy did not eat as well as they did. This can be regarded as a little compensation for them - although the Discipline Academy claims to be selfless, people who know how to behave should not take too much. Of course, eating well is what Zhao Hong is talking about. When his cultivation has reached the level of Taoist Xuanyang and Taoist Xuanxin, simply absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is enough to make up for his own shortcomings. There is no need to eat. But this does not mean that Taoist Xuanxin¡¯s expenses are lower than those of Zhao Honglai. In fact, it was completely the opposite. His expenses were several times more than that of Zhao Hong, his junior brother. Such expenses make the monastic discipline's accounts this month look ugly. The reason is that he probably had nothing to do. During the time when Taoist Xuanxin was "recuperating" in the Discipline Academy, for some reason, he fell in love with the tea ceremony. So Zhao Hong, who lived next door to him, and several disciples from the Discipline Academy who were called "custodians" but were actually servants, were in bad luck. He was forced to drink all kinds of tea soup every day. It would be fine if the tea soup tastes good, but Taoist Xuanxin has lived for thousands of years, and he is considered a very talented and thoughtful person among monks. However, he has no talent at all when it comes to tea ceremony. No matter how good the tea leaves are or how clear the water is, somehow it will turn into a medicinal soup that makes people frown and is difficult to swallow in his hands. Just like this one, it is obviously the finest tea from the Ice Needle Ginkgo carefully cultivated by Xueyu Tianling. It is a fairy tea that has the functions of refreshing the brain, calming the mind, moistening the lungs, etc. - it can smell refreshing even without water. The fragrance, in the hands of Taoist Xuanxin, turned into a pot of viscous green juice It looked similar to something concocted by someone practicing witchcraft and Gu. No wonder Zhao Hong said to his senior brother very seriously: "Spoil things." Such words came out. "However, Taoist Xuanxin is very well-educated. He is over a thousand years old, and it is impossible for him to argue with his eighteen-year-old junior brother. Besides, it was indeed as Zhao Hong said, the tea he brewed was unpalatable to a certain extent. So in this case, he could only laugh out loud. ???????????????????? During this period of time, things about the new mine have been making a lot of noise outside. However, Zhao Hong and Xuan Xinzi, the two senior brothers and the main parties involved, were doing quite well. Especially Taoist Xuanxin. Originally, I had to take care of a lot of things in the mine every day, but the remaining time was not enough for practice. How could I be in the mood to play with tea ceremony. It is precisely after such leisure and free time that we can relax and relax. Taoist Xuanxin lives quite well here, and Zhao Hong is equally calm. He had no interest in tea ceremony or anything like that, but he and Taoist Xuanxin were the only ones "imprisoned" here. The other disciples of the Discipline Academy are delicious and easy to serve, but they just don't have much communication with them. Zhao Hong thought in his heart that this might be a way for the Discipline Academy to punish criminals Of course, it might also be a way for them to protect themselves after drinking the tea brewed by Taoist Xuanxin. In short, Taoist Xuanxin is eager to find someone to try his new tea ceremony, but Zhao Hong has just entered Taoism and is still unable to maintain a normal state of mind without interacting with others for a long time. So this pair of brothers, who are thousands of years apart in age,?There are really a lot of contacts during this period of time. The feelings naturally increased a lot. "Forget it, forget it." Taoist Xuanxin shook his head after laughing enough, and continued: "I know, even though I'm an experienced Taoist, that this kind of tea doesn't taste good. I'm really sorry for forcing you, junior brother, to play around with me. "You can't say that." Zhao Hong waved his hand and said, "Senior brother, you and I are the only two people in such a big courtyard, so we can't even say a word. . If I don¡¯t look for my senior brother, who else can I look for? It¡¯s just a few cups of bitter tea. It¡¯s no big deal.¡± . Zhao Hong didn't answer when he heard what he said. He just looked at him with a smile and waited for the next step. As soon as he came here today, he felt something was wrong in the atmosphere. Although it's just a touch, there's a hint of it. But for the keen Zhao Hong, this is enough - this senior brother who is a thousand years older than him is preparing something, preparing a set of rhetoric, or looking at something wrong with him, or looking at something about him insufficient. So I want to give him a heads up. If it¡¯s the latter, Zhao Hong can selectively accept it. If it was the former Zhao Hong decided to compete with this senior brother to see who was more agile in speaking. He really hates other people making irresponsible remarks about him - all high-ranking people have this problem. "Indeed, the tea that Brother Wei made is a bit unpalatable. However, Brother Wei still knows a little bit about the tea ceremony. Xuan Xinzi said to Zhao Hong. After hearing what he said, Zhao Hong made a move He looked attentive. "Speaking of it, although the tea ceremony is a small way, it has the word 'Tao' in it. One method can be used, and hundreds of methods can be used. I have been a wise brother and wise brother for thousands of years, but I have gained a little knowledge of Tao. It is nothing more than harmonizing Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, and understanding the laws of nature and human nature. I thought that by analogy, this tea ceremony should be very quick to learn. I just didn't expectheh. " Having said this, Xuan Xinzi smiled self-deprecatingly, and then continued: " Later, the old Taoist discovered that the choice of tea depends on the quality and weight of the spring water, the amount of heat used to cook the tea, and the length of time. This is indeed what the Taoist thought, and it corresponds to the principles of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements. It¡¯s just that seasoned people know this truth, but it is difficult to actually do it. Either the spring water is a little heavier, or there are more or less tea leaves. The heat for cooking tea is either too high or too low. I can't control the time either. This is what happened. " "It's okay, knowing is knowing, but after knowing it, doing it according to what you know is another matter. The truth that my senior brother said is Hanshui Xiaode. "Zhao Hong nodded, thinking that this senior brother thought so. It was in line with the idea of ??integrating theory with practice. Just as he was thinking about it, Xuan Xinzi nodded and continued: "Yes, as the junior brother said, knowing is knowing, but according to what he said, Knowing how to do it is another matter. Junior brother, aren¡¯t you the same now? " "Senior brother, I have something to teach you. "I heard Taoist Xuanxin climb up the pole and say this. Zhao Hong sighed and said this. Taoist Xuanxin quickly shook his head and waved his hands, saying that he didn't mean it. But looking at Zhao Hong's expression that looked like a smile but not a smile, But I felt a little uneasy, so I hesitated about how to talk to him. "Senior brother really has something to teach me. "Seeing Taoist Xuanxin's appearance, Zhao Hong felt confident, sighed again, and said. "That's all. If this matter cannot be explained, I'm afraid I will really be blamed by my junior brother. Taoist Xuanxin shook his head and said: "Junior brother has been doing great things outside during this period of time. It won't be long before he can leave this courtyard." Can you tell Brother Yu what your plans are for the future? " "Brother, if you are willing to tell me clearly, I may not need to go out so soon. "Zhao Hong shook his head again. Speaking of which, Zhao Hong asked Taoist Xuanxin several times overtly and secretly about the new mine. However, when he asked in secret, Taoist Xuanxin pretended to be stupid. He stared blankly at him, and then Taoist Xuanxin blamed himself sadly, leaving Zhao Hong unable to say anything else. No matter what, he just refused to tell what Zhao Hong wanted to hear. After saying the name, Zhao Hong understood that his senior brother was very wise and cautious about the overall situation, but he wanted this guy to expose the boy Song Renshu, and then he would promote public opinion and let that guy go. Zhao Hong could only think about the fact that the boy was ruined and made the world laugh. Of course, this did not mean that Zhao Hong would alienate his senior brother, nor did it mean that Zhao Hong would be like his senior brother. Do the same thing and make compromises.
