Chapter 145: Living Water


Most of the peony flowering period in Baoguo Temple has passed, Yao Huang Wei Zi two kinds of tribute peony compete for the grand scene is no more, only some of the relatively mediocre quality is still blooming, such as the Mokui peony that hides flowers in the leaves and leads to the reduction of the style, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, the peony of Baoguo Temple is still brilliant compared to the Beiliang Palace, just in the temple to enjoy the scenery, it takes an hour and a half, there is still some time before lunch, a group of people taste tea in an elegant Zen room, it is obviously a temple, the tea is made by a graceful Taoist aunt, the two dynasties of heaven are worshipped, Up and down, Zhuang Lao's doctrine is an important branch of the Jiangnan Taoist sub-group to talk about the topic, many women of the wealthy family have the elegant habits of Huang Lao, but the Taoist aunt appeared in the Zen room, or a little weird, she is about thirty years old, born with red cheeks and long eyebrows, and looks very monk's clear air, after the eldest sister Xu Weixiong and her words, only to know that this woman named Xu Huipu is from the Gumu Xu family, if not, there is no way to have a few acres of tea behind the Baoguo Temple Mountain, which is a celebrity.

Xu Huipu is half of Xu Zhihu's close friend in the boudoir, probably because the two women are widows, they have been relatively close over the years, this female crown may be a love house and Wu, and she is also quite polite to Xu Fengnian, although she talks very little when she makes tea, most of them are greetings with Xu Weixiong, but occasionally when her eyes touch His Royal Highness the Prince, she will smile with her eyebrows.

The tea can is a delicate tin bottle, which is expensive, and the tin surname is close to the tea surname, and the large bottle of water storage bottle is blown to detect leakage before storage.

At first glance, she is a tea ceremony expert, where does a layman know how to care about these, and only thinks about how expensive gold and jade are.

The teapot is a quaint go-to-winter kettle style.

She saw Xu Fengnian staring at the teapot, so she explained: "This is my father's clever hand when he went to the Liangzen Temple to listen to the lectures of the monks when he was young, and it was taken from the handwashing mud that sank at the bottom of the jar after a monk who farmed all the year round, and made a pot according to the shape of the gall of a ginkgo tree in the Liangzen Temple, engraved with tree patterns, and then spread for some reason.

The name of the pot is taken from the fingerprint, and it can be hidden to welcome spring.

However, the general winter pot in Yangzhou, the sand and mud are dug from the head of Yangxian Creek. ” Xu Zhihu is trying to insert a peony in Xu Fengnian's bun, Xu Fengnian swears to die, the two sisters and brothers have dealings, and Xu Zhihu, who has never succeeded, gasped and smiled: "That old monk is the host of the two Zen temples, I heard that he will live to be one hundred and fifty or sixty years old, and the whole world will be compared with our Danding on Wudang Mountain in Beiliang."

Uncle Xu has to go to the two Zen temples every ten years, in addition to listening to Zen and listening to the scriptures, there is also to ask the old monk for the mud.

Therefore, a pound of mud in Yangxian Xitou can be worth a pound of gold, and it is not as good as the teapot made by Uncle Xu's father. ” Xu Fengnian just took a green jade bucket teacup and was about to drink tea, but when he heard that the teapot was made of mud from the bottom of the old monk's jar, his face suddenly became a little unnatural, Buddha or something, he couldn't drink it, and he really didn't want to drink it.

But it was difficult to get off the thief ship, so he had to take a sip of it, he couldn't drink the tea, so he didn't dare to show off, the tea and the spring water used to cook the tea were naturally excellent, but as long as he thought of the word handwashing mud, he was a little discouraged, and his interest was not high.

As soon as I was not careful, Xu Zhihu put the peony flower on his head, and he was too lazy to pull it out, and for no reason he remembered that he claimed to live in the temple Li Zi girl, and the little monk was stupid in the north and south, and was stunned for a while, and then thought of the rumors about the old host of the two Zen temples, it is said that this old monk who was destined to be called the ancestor after the death of the holy monk was very interesting, and he was very little literate, and when he was young, he just did some things to chop wood and burn charcoal, and his mother said, the people who bought firewood believed in Buddhism, and often read the Diamond Sutra.

He just went up the mountain to get two Zen mantle, shaved ordained ordained monks, in one go, to know that he is, not preaching, although this has something to do with his poor background and literacy, but there is no doubt that this monk Wu surname chased the Buddha, listen to the King Kong Sutra and understand the law, the monks of the two Zen temples read the classics more than thousands, but when I discussed the Buddhist principles with the monk, the monks were straight to the point and said I haven't read your scriptures, so the monk just let them memorize the scriptures, often to a small half and a half, the monk said a stop word, Then he said with the other party, no one was convinced, there was a hundred-year-old old host of the Fahua Temple, the largest temple in the south, asked the monk who was only forty years old at the time, why read the Lotus Sutra of the Mystic Law ten thousand times and did not interpret the scriptures, the result was only the old host memorized a few paragraphs, the young monk began to tell the scriptures, the old host of the Daigo empowerment, thanksgiving, the world listened, it was simply a god, can not imagine how a monk who can't even read the scriptures can cross people, even the immortals of Longhu Mountain have to see the salute, the two most outstanding figures of Buddhism, appeared at the same time at a lotus debate in front of Yijiazi, but the result made everyone else confused, and the two just sat face to face, without saying a word, and sat all night.

It was the last time that the Immortal Qi Xuanjiao appeared before he ascended.

When this monk was no longer young and getting older and older, he had never heard of him going to read and read the scriptures, but when the white-clothed monk, an apprentice who had been away for fifteen years, came back, he asked the apprentice to say the scriptures for three consecutive days and three nights, nodding his head frequently, and finally risking the world's condemnation to allow the white-clothed monk to drink and marry a wife, and then later, he had an epiphany of deviance.

Xu Fengnian was startled, the tea was spilled on the ground, and he muttered to himself: "The white-clothed monk Li Beware, the plum girl who has lived in the temple since she was a child" Daogu Xu Huipu originally saw that Xu Fengnian's interest in tasting tea was not high, this sprinkle was even more rude, how different from the mundane things she looked a little displeased, but she didn't say anything, but she no longer had the idea of pouring a second cup of tea for His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, it seems that the world said that the Jinyu of the Beiliang Shizi was ruined outside, and it was not an exaggeration.

The elder sister Xu Shufei, who was expected to favor the harem, was suddenly beaten into the cold palace, and the Xu family was already furious, but she was a widow crown, so she would not be as angry with Xu Zhihu as the family members, and she got the inside story of His Royal Highness the Prince making waves in the two counties last night, and she just laughed at it, and even the family let her use Xu Zhihu to get close to His Royal Highness the Prince to explore the truth, she didn't nod, and now she saw it with her own eyes, she was really disappointed, it was nothing more than relying on the family background of the King of Beiliang to bully people, This is no different from the unsuccessful descendants of the four major families in Yangzhou.

Xu Huipu glanced at Xu Zhihu, who had been able to talk about his heart in the past, and sighed in his heart.

The tea is not cold, but the atmosphere is much colder, it is no longer something that can be changed by adding a few pieces of charcoal, Xu Zhihu seems to be close to the ink black, not as clear as before, just said that he wanted to visit Baoguo Temple with his younger brother again, and left the meditation room.

Xu Huipu sat quietly for a while, waited for the group to go away, then slowly got up, walked out of the back door of the yard, went straight to the tea mountain, walked a pillar of incense kung fu, and finally saw a bamboo building, a bamboo chair was placed under the bamboo eaves, sitting an old man with eyebrows like snow, squatting on his lap with a lion cat whose hair was also like snow, the old man stroked the cat's head, and sat upright looking at the distant mountain.

The old man stretched out his hand, Xu Huipu sat on a small stool next to the bamboo chair, and before she could speak, the old man smiled kindly and said, "I must have been disappointed to come so early." ” Xu Huipu said softly: "The ancestors are clear-sighted. ” The old man smiled: "It's okay, since His Royal Highness the Son of the World can't help him, the hereditary replacement will be the hereditary replacement, and our old guys will also end up with an easy one." ” Xu Huipu knew that he was about to pull the future layout of the four wealthy lords in Luzhou, and said nervously: "If the old ancestor doesn't let people test it again, I'm afraid I'm wrong." ” The old man glanced at it lightly, and the already good identity of the Dao Gu was so frightened that her delicate body trembled slightly, the old man touched the lion cat's head, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, such a big burden, it will be borne by you as a little woman, it is inevitable that you will look down on Yu Lian Xu Gong Lu Daolin and these people, and Luzhou will not be cold to this point." ” Xu Huipu's face was pale and he didn't dare to speak.

The secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu Yu Lian, the head of the Jiang Xin Yu family.

Lu Daolin, the head of the Lu family in Huting.

Xu Gong, the general of Long Xiang, although he is not the head of the Gumu Xu family, is also a dynasty general who holds military power.

It's just that these Luzhou bigwigs, who are all amazing and gorgeous, see the old ancestor in front of them, even if they don't tremble like Xu Huipu, they have to stand and talk respectfully, the reason why Xu Huipu can sit down is not only because she is a woman, but also because she is the granddaughter-in-law of this old man in Luzhou.

The huge Jiangnan Shizi Group, its heritage and power, how can the Qingdang, which has only a hundred years of foundation, be comparable to Hong Jia's Beiben, it comes from the planning of the ancestor in front of him, and the family product that evaluates the ranking of the world's families, a total of nine people participate in the dynasty, and the ranking of the ancestors is even before Zhang Julu, the first assistant of the dynasty, because the old ancestor had been in the same door as the old Shoufu and Sun Xijishi, the Taishi of Western Chu, when he was young, Zhang Julu was powerful, and he also wanted to be a junior.

The old man looked into the distance, "Today's debate between the kings and overlords is probably going to pick up people's teeth again." ” Xu Huipu hesitated, but did not speak after all.

In the pinnacle of the debate of the king in the past fifty years, the ancestor was in the game, so he was naturally qualified to say this.

The old man sighed with emotion: "The old Shoufu is lucky, there is Zhang Julu Qing out of the blue and better than the blue, otherwise with his ability, that is, to be an imperial pastemaker, here is leaking wind and here seams, there is rain leakage and there is mending, after the Spring and Autumn War, it is destined to be out of place, and it is good to die, otherwise the evening will not be guaranteed."

The old man of Xichu Nasun was miserable, originally in terms of reputation, the two of us were not as good as him combined, but now it is good, among the scholars, he only lost to Xu Rentu in this infamy in the whole world.

It's better to die. ” Xu Huipu just listened humbly.

The old man heard the lion cat meow, looked down, and said with a smile: "It's not good that the son of the world can't help it, it's a good thing in the short term, in the long run, we, who were scolded by Tangxi Sword Immortal, are not dead all these years, aren't we living in vain."

Xu Hui knelt down with a puff.

The old man muttered: "What did you do with Lu Baijie back then, get up, it's cold on the ground, it's not good to get cold."

To be a man is to be down-to-earth, but this is not the way to connect. ” Xu Hui shuddered and got up and sat down again.

The old man squinted his eyes and said: "Go, let the descendants of the cold family meet His Royal Highness the Prince, and he will plan for Bei Liang, not losing Zhao Guangling to Xu Rentu back then, and this stagnant water will be lived." ” Xu Huipu got up gently, and the old man said calmly: "You go to recommend a pillow to that prince, and only then can you completely break off the relationship with Lu Baijie." ” The female crown who has been pure and has only studied Lao Zhuang for many years did not refuse, and when she left, she bit her lip and oozed blood
