Chapter 49 There is tea in the world

After pulling her husband out of the woods and onto the mountain road going up, Li Hongxiu, who was still in shock, patted her heart and said, "Isn't this kid really going to practice Buddhism? What should I do with the two little girls?"

The teacher gently patted Li Hongxiu's hand and said, "Probably not. He has not yet entered the world, and the time has not yet come for him to be born."

"Besides, everyone's destiny is different. He needs to walk his own path in the future. There are not many roads I can walk with him. The eagle will eventually fly into the sky on its own."

Holding hands and walking on the rugged mountain road, before they knew it, the two of them had already become closer.

...

Li Ye, who was carving words on the stone wall, didn't know the vision behind him. He just followed his husband's request and tried to be consistent with every stroke. Every verse seemed to come alive the moment it was carved on the stone wall.

Generally, it is as if the Buddha is reciting sutras with him.

After carving for more than an hour, and seeing that it was already halfway through, Li Ye was exhausted, put down the sword in his hand, and fell down on the pine wood stand.

Looking at the neat regular script scriptures engraved on the smooth stone wall, even though it was less than one-tenth of the previous volume, I felt very happy. While moving the infuriating energy in my Dantian, I thought about whether to chop down the tree first or

Cut bamboo.

After resting for a while, I thought it would be better to cut down the bamboo to divert water. It would not be too late to cut down the trees in the afternoon.

He lightly jumped off the wooden frame, carrying his sword, and arrived in front of the house.

Looking at the empty stone cliff, he walked to the table, poured some warm tea from the pot, and drank it all in one gulp.

Touching my sore body, I really wanted to lie down on the bamboo chair in the room and do nothing, not think about anything, just stare at the sky.

But he still wanted to explain things first, so he had to pick up his energy, pick up his sword, and walk towards the bamboo forest not far away.

...

The little girl on the mountain and the beautiful woman in white came to the place yesterday again today. After waiting for a long time, there was no sign of Li Ye.

For the little girl, visitors to the Tianshan Mountains were rarer than ferocious beasts, let alone Li Ye who looked not much older than her.

Tilting her head and looking at the woman in white, the little girl spoke: "Master, that guy didn't come today. How about we go to where he lives to find him."

The beautiful woman in white and the little girl had nothing to do and just wandered around Tianshan Mountain all day long. They wanted to go somewhere different, so they nodded and thought of the little girl, drifting down the mountain like a gust of wind.

After a while, the two of them arrived outside Shiya's wooden house, but Li Ye hadn't come back yet.

The little girl ran into the house and rummaged around for a while, then ran into the cave and wandered around. When she saw no one, she returned to the table in front of the house and sat down. She looked at the teapot on the table in a daze, thinking to herself, what is this?

The little girl was very playful. Yu Xin added pine pieces to the small stove, blew with her little mouth to make the fire hot, and then added water to the pot.

It looks like he wants to drink Li Ye's tea.

The beautiful woman let the little girl play nonsense, and also sat at the table. She reached out and took the tea cup from the table, took the water from the bucket, and washed the cup to the edge of the cliff.

Seeing the little girl's clumsiness, the beautiful woman helped pour out the tea leaves in the purple sand, washed them with hot water, took new tea leaves and put them into the pot. The two of them held their chins and waited for the water to boil.

"Master, what is this? Is it medicine? Why haven't I seen it before?"

"This is tea, which is popular among people in the city at the foot of the mountain. You can drink it as often as you like in the future." The beautiful woman touched the little girl's head lovingly.

"Oh, it turns out it's not medicine!" The little girl is a curious baby. She has never seen new people a few times, so everything here is new to her.

He stretched out his little hands to touch the dried meat hanging under the eaves, and wanted to touch the mushrooms and herbs that Li had dried on the stone slabs under the house.

The beautiful woman grabbed her little hand and asked her to stay on the stool beside the table.

There was a whining sound, and the water in the pot was boiling. The beautiful woman took it out, added water to the purple clay pot, and heated the tea cups. They each poured a cup of hot tea. The beautiful woman gently picked up the cup and blew on it.

Take a breath and bring it to your mouth.

The little girl followed the master's example, picked up the cup, blew on it, lowered her head, and took a sip.

"Oh, this is going to burn your mouth, drink it slowly!" Seeing that something was wrong, the beautiful woman hurriedly stopped the little girl.

The girl who almost burned her mouth was startled. She quickly put down the cup and covered her ears with her hands. After a while, she picked up the cup and took a sip again.

Unexpectedly, she spit it out and said with a bitter face: "Master, this is more bitter than medicine."

The beautiful woman smiled and said slowly: "This is the taste of tea. It is very bitter at first, but you will feel it slowly, and it will taste sweet after a while."

The little girl stirred her tongue and pursed her mouth. After a while, she said, "It's really sweet, Master." After that, she picked up the cup in front of her and drank it gently.

The beautiful woman looked at her and smiled and said, "You ate too much meat on the mountain. Would it be good for you to drink some tea?"

"Oh? Then we will come here to drink often." The little girl nodded.

The two masters just looked at the beautiful scenery of Tianshan Mountain outside the cliff, listened to the chirping of birds all over the mountain, smelled the fragrance of flowers brought by the wind, enjoyed the master's tea around the stone table, and waited for Li Ye's return.

Li Ye had already cut a lot of moso bamboo from the bamboo forest and dragged it back.

While dragging the bamboo, I thought, I need to get the water out of the hole quickly so that I can have time to chop down the tree in the afternoon and wait for my husband to make a bathtub for meditative bath tomorrow.

After dragging it all the way through the woods, we were about to walk towards the front of the wooden house.

The two masters, who were drinking tea, heard Li Ye's voice and quickly hugged the girl, using their feet firmly to fly around the wooden house and towards the stone cliff of the cave.

The place where the two of them settled was just above the scriptures carved by Li Ye. The little girl was a curious baby. She pointed at the scriptures carved on the stone wall and asked in a low voice: "Master, what is this?"

"This is a Buddhist scripture, don't talk! I didn't expect this kid to know Buddhist scriptures. Looking at the handwriting, his skills are extraordinary." The beautiful woman touched the little woman's head and asked her to be quiet.

The beautiful woman didn't let the little girl continue to play nonsense, and jumped up the stone wall with her in her arms...

Li Ye dragged the bamboo in front of the house and put it on the sword. He walked to the table and poured water from the pot into the cup the girl drank from. Looking at the steaming tea, he felt a little confused. He had already walked most of the way.

It's been an hour, why is the water in the teapot still hot?

Li Ye, who didn't think about it, poured a few more cups of tea. After quenching his thirst, he picked up the sword from the ground, picked up a bamboo, and cut it off with all his strength.

After breaking the bamboo from the middle, he used the tip of the sword to break through the bamboo joints and dragged it towards the cave.

The two masters climbed higher and found a cliff where they could sit, looking down at Li Ye's every move.

Watching Li Ye drink from his cup, the little girl giggled and said, "Look, that guy is drinking the tea I drank."

The beautiful woman touched her head and said nothing, but she was thinking in her heart: It is possible that you will follow him for the rest of your life.

Li Ye picked up the water from the cave very quickly. A large moso bamboo was already one or two feet long and could be used. One by one, he used the cut bamboo tails to build a triangle. In less than half an hour, the bamboo was ready.

The snow water from the underground river in the cave is led to the overhang outside the cave.

I saw a clear spring, happily rushing out from the bamboo path and rushing down the cliff ten thousand feet in the middle.

Looking at his results, Li Ye clapped his little hands, thinking that he had finally completed the task assigned by his husband, and it would be much easier for him to get water in the future. He lowered his head and drank the snow water in the bamboo path with a grin.

Unexpectedly, he couldn't help but spit it out as soon as he opened his mouth. He forgot that this was snow water on an iceberg. How could it be put directly into his mouth?

This scene made the two masters on the cliff almost laugh out loud.

Carrying the sword, he returned to the table. Li Ye, who was shivering from the cold, added two pine lumps to the stove, puffed up his mouth and blew on it. At this time, he had to take a hot drink.

At this time, the sun in the sky was shining on his head, noon was early, and he was hungry.

I took off my shoes and went into the house to get rice and dried meat. Thinking that the master and Li Hongxiu were not here, I would cook some dried meat and mushroom rice.

We picked up some mushrooms from the stone slabs and carried them to the cliff together, collected the snow water, washed the rice and mushrooms, and returned to the house.

He lit a fire on the stone barrier for barbecue, set up the pot, put the ingredients, and waited for this pot of fragrant pilaf to feed his five internal organs.

Returning to the table and looking at the steaming copper pot, Li Ye sighed, poured it into the pot and continued to make tea. He thought that it would be better to go up the mountain with his husband in the future. This person was too boring.

After drinking the tea in the cup, Li Ye took off his shoes, jumped into the house, and lay down on the bamboo chair. After the husband finished cooking, the master and the master had not fully enjoyed it yet.

The girl on the cliff watched Li Ye cook the rice, smelled the aroma wafting up, and pointed down, meaning that she wanted to eat too.

"He can't finish the meal alone, let him eat first, and then we'll go back down when he goes to sleep." The beautiful woman said softly.

The little girl nodded, waved her hand, and took out two fruits. The master and the disciple each ate one fruit slowly on the edge of the cliff.

Lying on the chair, Li Ye was thinking about something. He thought that when he carved the stone wall behind the house, he would be able to use his strength freely, and he could practice his sword skills.

It was comfortable to lie down, but my stomach was not as good as it could be, growling loudly. I was so hungry that I had to get up and go to the fire outside to watch the pilaf rice I had cooked.

After opening the pot, the strong aroma hit his face. Li Ye couldn't help but move his index finger, turned in and took out a bowl, filled a full bowl, put out the fire, and sat down at the table with the bowl in hand to devour it.

There was no one around here, so I didn't care about my image anymore. It was more important to fill my stomach.

While eating, I looked at the scenery of Tianshan Mountain. I saw that the red leaves all over the mountain were about to fall off. I heard the chef said that when all the red leaves fall off, it will almost snow.

Thinking of his parents in Fengyun City and the two young ladies who left, Li Ye felt a touch of sadness in his heart after eating. Everything was as written in the book. You can't have your cake and eat it too. There are always some things in life.

Unsatisfactory.

He walked to the table, boiled water, and drank a cup of tea from the pot.

In the mountains, a breeze blew down from the top of the cliff, smelling a faint fragrance.
