I didn't intend to become a fairy

Chapter 176 Do You Eat Four-legged Snakes?

"Guest officer, please be polite."

A middle-aged man came over, with a rather handsome face, dressed as an elegant scholar, respectfully greeted Song Xun, and then sat down on the other side.

The man brought a complex tea set.

The tea in this store is not boiled and brewed before being served, but a special person comes to the table to cook and brew for you. This is the confidence in your own craftsmanship, which can give you a different experience in the process .

This tea should be the best tea in An Le Guan, and the owner of the shop, who is quite famous as an elegant scholar, came to make some for them in person.

"It's the first time the guest officer has come."

"First time here."

"Not from Changjing?"

"He is from Yizhou, and he has only come to Changjing not long ago."

"Yizhou also produces tea."

"Yes, tea is produced, and the tea-horse market is over there."

The owner of the shop behaved elegantly, and everything was done in a timely manner. First, he took out the tea from the tea pot, put it into the tea bag, smashed it with a mallet, and chatted with the guests in a low voice: "This tea is made by the shop, but at first it was regarded as tea. It is produced in Yangzhou. It is said that when my father was young, he went to Yangzhou to play. Once he passed by a place and found a shop to eat. The shop gave him a cup of tea. Unexpectedly, the food was ordinary, but this cup of tea made my father also like it. Surprised. I asked the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper only said that it was a local camellia. After several inquiries, my father finally got this tea, and then made a green bamboo reward."

"It's fate."

The Taoist nodded and replied.

I don't know if it's true or not, but it's a commonly used method. Whether it's things or people, people often make up some stories to embellish them, but sometimes there's no need to distinguish the true from the false.

The owner put the broken tea leaves into the tea basket, still not in a hurry, crushed them back and forth into fine powder, and then sifted it through a fine sieve, and all the fine tea powder came out.

Mistress Sanhua didn't blink her eyes, she sometimes stared at the owner's movements, as if she wanted to see what it cost her so much money, and sometimes she looked up at the owner, as if to divert this emotion from the tea When it came to the shopkeeper selling tea, the shopkeeper looked indifferent, just doing his own thing, ignoring her gaze.

The turquoise tea powder was put into the bottom of the bowl, and it was a coincidence, almost exactly, that the water on the small stove next to it boiled.

The shopkeeper removed it, and when the water stopped steaming, he put it back.

Then repeat again.

"This is the mountain spring picked from Changshan. It is sweet and delicious, and it is most suitable for making tea." The shopkeeper raised his head and said to him with a smile, "However, it is best to use it for making tea after three rolls. "

"The owner is particular about it."

"Tea ceremony is the word."

"Long mountains are far away."

"It's far away, so it's precious."

"I heard that the old shop owner is also very knowledgeable in the tea ceremony?"

"But the world praises it."

Although the shopkeeper said so, it was obviously very useful.

First pour some water into the bottom of the bowl, make the delicate tea powder into a paste, and then flush it with water at a high place to make it float. At this time, there is a strong tea fragrance and a pleasant fragrance.

This is not enough, but also to paint on this floating green.

The owner paints carefully, and Taoists dare not disturb them.

Even the little girls couldn't take their eyes off it.

After a while, there was a picture of a bamboo forest on the surface of the tea in the bowl. Although it was outlined with simple lines, it was very vivid.

Another bowl was prepared in the same way.

"Please enjoy."

The owner got up and saluted, then left with small steps.

But when he left, he turned his head again and glanced at Empress Sanhua who was sitting opposite Song You.However, he didn't expect the Taoist to also turn his head to look at him. In a panic, he inevitably panicked and smiled before leaving.

"Miss Sanhua, please have some tea."

"Why not use Empress Sanhua's own bowl?"

"Miss Sanhua, just let it go."

"Oh……"

The little girl carefully picked up the tea bowl and lifted it high enough that the edge of the bowl was almost at eye level. She opened her eyes wide and stared at the painted flowers still shaking with the water on the tea surface without blinking, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Miss Sanhua, don't mess with it."

"Will not!"

"Don't burn yourself."

"No way!"

"I feel so too……"

The Taoist nodded and took a sip of tea.

Sure enough, the tea fragrance is pleasant and refreshing.

Although there are still many differences between the tea made in this way and the clear brewed tea in the previous life, they are relatively close.At least this bowl of tea does not have a bunch of ingredients in it like boiling tea, it is a relatively simple tea flavor.

It's a pity that the method of ordering tea has not yet become popular all over the country. Along the way, most areas still focus on brewing tea.

"Liu yo..."

There was a strange sound in front of him.

Looking up, it was the little girl sitting opposite him who imitated him and took a sip, but first, she served the bowl later, and second, her tongue was more sensitive than humans. He was so hot that he sucked air into his mouth, and the tea soup was blown around in his mouth for an unknown number of times, but he couldn't bear to spit it out.

"Goo!"

Finally swallowed.

The Taoist looked at her and said, "How is it?"

"hot!"

"What is the taste?"

"do not know."

"Eat a piece of dried meat." The Taoist pushed the dried meat on the table to her, "Drink it when it's cold."

"Oh……"

The little girl picked up the jerky.

The Taoist also twisted a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake.

The pastry does not dare to squeeze hard, it will melt in the mouth, and you have to spread it with one hand when eating.When you put it in your mouth, you don’t think it’s delicious at first, but you can add another sip of tea, the tea aroma is mixed with the pastry powder, and it becomes a very gentle taste in your mouth, full of pastry aroma and tea aroma, filling every gap between your teeth between.

After a while, the tea slowly warmed up.

Seeing that Song You was drinking with gusto, Xu Shi finally picked up the tea bowl, Empress Sanhua stepped forward and took a sip.

Still imitating the person next to him smashing his mouth and making a sound:
"Ah~"

This time it tasted good.

However, what he got in return was a frown and a twinkle in his eyes, as if he doubted himself.

Putting the tea bowl back on the table, he turned his head and stared blankly at the Taoist beside him. Seeing that the Taoist was still intoxicated, the suspicion in his eyes suddenly filled up a bit, and he felt that it was his fault, so he picked up the tea bowl.

"Tsk~ah~
"?"

Looking at the person next to him again, the suspicion on his face became stronger, and he couldn't help leaning closer again.

The Taoist just pretended not to see her movements.

The morning light is just right outside.

Song You turned his head and glanced from time to time, and the owner went to another table, chatting and laughing with a group of scholars who seemed to be familiar, showing off his tea skills.

Empress Sanhua held the tea bowl in her two small hands, wanted to drink but didn't want to drink, turned her head to follow his gaze, and whispered:
"That guy is kind of weird."

"Don't worry about it."

Song You glanced again, then looked away.

In fact, he didn't see through the abilities of ghosts at a glance, and often relied on clear spiritual power, but some ghosts are different from humans, and they can see through them without other skills.

Just like Empress Sanhua.

She looked like a beautiful and lovely girl, but she was too delicate, and her white, tender and spotless skin was really suspicious.And even if she is dressed up, even if she has learned to read and write and simple arithmetic through study, as long as a butterfly flies past her, something is wrong immediately.

The owner of the shop must have been in Changjing for a long time, and his behavior is almost the same as that of others. He can only see a very subtle point, and it is far from possible to deduce that he is not a human being.

Song You actually didn't see that he was a ghost.

On the contrary, it was the shop owner who saw that there was something wrong with Empress Sanhua, and naturally exposed his own something wrong.

Changjing is indeed a place that even ghosts yearn for.

However, people have their own duties, as long as they don't harm others, Song You won't meddle in other people's business, as long as he doesn't know about it.

Eating snacks like this, and occasionally tasting a piece of Sanhua Niangniang's jerky, drinking the good tea, slowly killing the morning.It wasn't until the sound of cicadas became louder and louder, the sun outside became brighter and the temperature was significantly higher than in the morning, that the Taoist got up to pay the bill.

Mistress Sanhua glanced down at the half bowl of tea in the bowl, frowned, but finally she was reluctant, picked it up bravely, raised her head and drank it down, her little face was quite determined.

"how much is it?"

"Guest, two bowls of tea are [-] yuan, which is quite a good amount. Our shop owner said that he is a tea lover and it's his first time here. It's a fate, so I'll give the two plates of snacks to him as a gift."

Song You smiled when he heard this.

"Thank the shopkeeper for me."

After paying the money, she turned around and saw that Empress Sanhua was standing behind her, staring at herself with a serious face.

"Let's go."

Song You led her out, and said as he walked, "Now Empress Sanhua is also the cat who has drunk the best tea in Changjing."

"Bitter Chirp."

"Is it bad?"

"Bitter Chirp."

"Then I won't drink anymore."

"A lot of money!"

"If the money is gone, you can earn it again." Song You laughed again, and said to her, "Speaking of Changjing's ten wonders, Empress Sanhua has already seen nine of them."

"Nine?"

"Yes."

"Empress Sanhua doesn't remember."

"It doesn't matter. When Mistress Sanhua grows up, Mistress Sanhua will be able to remember what others say about Changjing, and she can tell them that Mistress Sanhua has seen it before."

"I've seen it before~"

"Then they will wow, they will feel that Empress Sanhua has been to so many places at a young age, and has seen so many things that others have never seen before." The Taoist said as he walked.

"!"

The little girl's expression froze, and then she asked, "Then there is another one?"

"one left……"

"And another one?"

"Empress Sanhua can immediately realize that there is one difference between nine and ten. She really is a peerless genius."

"correct!"

"I admire..."

"And another one?"

"..."

The Taoist pursed his lips and shaded the sun with his hands.

The little girl quickened her pace, her little feet flipping quickly, ran to him, and walked back towards him:
"And another one?"

"There's one more thing that's not interesting."

"It's not interesting today."

"That kid can't go."

"What about the kitten?"

"You can't go either."

"Oh……"

Only then did the little girl show disappointment.

Slowed down, turned around, and continued to follow the Taoist, walking side by side with him, but quickly raised his head and said to him: "The man just now seems to be a four-legged snake."

Children always have a lot to say.

The Taoist also seemed to have a lot of patience, so he asked casually, "How did Mistress Sanhua see it?"

"Mistress Sanhua has eaten many four-legged snakes."

"..."

"It tastes similar to raw chicken. The bones are not as hard as chicken, and they crumble right away."

"..."

"Are you going to eat?"

"No, thank you."

However, there are indeed more ghosts in Changjing than Song You imagined, and the relationship between these ghosts and Changjing is deeper than Song You imagined. Many of them may have lived here for many years.

Walk gradually back to Willow Street.

Someone was waiting at the door.

Song You saw it, it was really interesting.

He just came back from the Anle Hall opened by the monster, and saw another monster waiting for him at the door.

What's interesting is that these two are the best in Changjing.
