Chapter 488 The Legend of Baihao Silver Needle (1)
Fresh from home.
study.
Yu Shuyou stood respectfully in front of Xianyu Daxi.
"Is everything done?"
"Yes! I have said everything that needs to be said."
"Okay." Xianyu Daxi looked at his second son with a hint of heartache in his eyes, "Thank you for your hard work."
"As the legitimate son of the Xianyu family, this is my responsibility. Father, don't be sad."
Even Xian Yu Daxi, who had a heart as hard as iron, had some moisture in his eyes.
"You are a good child! It is your father who has treated you badly."
"Dad! I'm not miserable! Really. Compared to those uncles and ancestors who died for the family, I'm already very lucky. Moreover, I'm living a good life, really!"
Xianyu Daxi looked at his second son with satisfaction, and pride rose in his heart. This was his son.
Yes, for the sake of his family, he can die without hesitation, and his son naturally also has such a sense of mission and character.
"Very good! You'er! Dad, I'm very proud!"
Yu Shuyou smiled.
His father really didn't treat him badly. Not only did he hand over all the Anbu to him, he also gave him the only flying boat given by the Su family. What else could he not be satisfied with?
As a direct descendant of the Xianyu family, enjoying the best resources of the Xianyu family, he naturally had to lead by example and die for the Xianyu family.
However, he could give everything for the Xianyu family, but he didn't want to implicate others. That's why he was alone. Yunniang was a good woman, but he was not worthy of her after all.
Thinking of that gentle and virtuous woman, Yu Shuyou's eyes wavered for a moment, then darkened again. After all, he was not worthy of her!
fair enough!
Take care of yourself!
Anyway, he just wanted to die alone for his family.
"Okay, go back. Protect yourself!"
Xianyu Daxi looked at his second son, who he had secretly hidden and trained since birth, and his eyes were still bitter. But who made him his second son? He was the one who dragged this child down. No matter what, he would just stand in front and protect this poor child. He had no choice.
As the head of the Xianyu family, he could only let his own children be the leader of the secret guards. He could not let the children of his second and third brothers take on the responsibilities of their eldest line.
If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!
Yu Shuyou looked at his father and smiled sincerely. Since he was a direct descendant, how could he shirk his responsibilities? ! He was already content with the love of his father and mother.
This time, as long as the Xianyu family can survive the crisis, he will die for them. It is his honor.
He just wanted to die for the family like other ancestors, and it would be his greatest honor to have his portrait hung in the Loyalty Hall after his death.
This sense of honor of dying for his family has long been engraved in his bones.
If there is no skin, there will be no hair!
He is not one of those people with shallow vision. He naturally knows that one should be a hero when alive and a hero as a ghost when dead!
Yu Shuyou looked at his father with admiration, then went into the tunnel of the study and left Xianyu's mansion.
This Prince Ning, he doesn't really think that Liangzhou is under his firm control!
Ha ha!
If the Xianyu family had not been afraid of causing the entire Longyou Road to be plunged into war and forced to leave their homes or be separated from their wives and children, how could they have pretended to be friendly with King Ning?
I just don't want the common people who have followed the Xianyu family for thousands of years to suffer any harm.
Our ancestors have long said that this world can do without the Xianyu family, but it cannot do without the people of Longyou Road!
It was because of this family motto that the Xianyu family compromised. The purpose was just to protect the people. After all, the Xianyu family was born and raised here for generations. This was the root of the Xianyu family and the final destination of all the Xianyu family members.
King Ning should be thankful that he mainly targeted the wealthy families and did not rashly attack the common people. Otherwise, the Xianyu family would not have remained silent and made concessions step by step.
However, Xianyu Daxi is a little uncertain now.
At the previous banquet, Ning Wang Yuwentai's servility to Situ Haoyue was really puzzling. Xianyu Daxi believed that he had a sharp eye and confirmed that Ning Wang and Situ Haoyue were not acting.
Therefore, what Prince Ning said before that Situ Haoyue was an immortal was true.
After all, the girl from the Su family first flew on a sword in public, and then used a flying boat to save the direct descendants of the nine great families. There is no doubt that the Su family is a family of immortals, and the evidence is in You'er's hands.
That flying boat was one that Qing'er had tested. Thinking of Qing'er, Xianyu Daxi smiled with relief. The children of their Xianyu family were all good children.
As the young master of the family, Xian Yu Shuqing got a life-saving magic weapon like the flying boat, and the first thing he thought of was to send it back to save himself and Yu Shuyou's lives. He is a good and responsible child.
However, could the sudden snowstorm in the town north of Liangzhou Prefecture be caused by Situ Haoyue, whom Prince Ning asked to do?
Otherwise, how could so many wealthy families move to Liangzhou City obediently? How could the Ning Wang army be expanded to 100,000 troops so quickly?
I didn't believe in such a mysterious thing before. However, with the example of the Su family, everything became uncertain.
However, Situ Haoyue was not a good person who did such a bad thing. Therefore, he was definitely not the person that the nine great families of Feng, Cui, Hao, Bi, Hou, Gui, Xianyu, Wuma, and Lezheng were waiting for.
However, they have already passed this issue on to Yingyue Valley, but they don't know how the Su family will deal with it.
Can Su Xiaoya and Yu Shuheng, brother and sister, really deal with Situ Haoyue this time?
I don’t know whether these two brothers and sisters understood Yu Shuyou’s hint.
Just when Xianyu Daxi was sitting in his study with a gloomy face, his eyes blurred and two figures suddenly appeared.
Xianyu Daxi blinked and rubbed his eyes hard, wondering if he was dazzled. However, when he opened his eyes again, the two figures were still standing there, as if they had fallen from the sky.
He opened his mouth wide, staring blankly at the boy and girl in front of him, with an indescribable shock and confusion in his heart. For a moment, he even forgot to scream, and froze in place, unable to move.
A soft laugh broke the strange silence. It turned out that Su Xiaoya couldn't help laughing.
Su Xiaoya thought Xianyu Daxi's reaction was quite amusing. According to common sense, since Xianyu Daxi wanted to invite them to meet, he should have been prepared.
Moreover, Su Xiaoya didn't believe that Xianyu Daxi didn't know their identities in the world of immortal cultivation. Huzhou would definitely spread the news that the Su family was an immortal cultivation family. She and Yu Shuheng saw the jade token worn by Yu Shuyou.
So, why would Xianyu Daxi be so frightened and lose consciousness?
In comparison, Yu Shuheng was more reliable. He tried to suppress the smile in his eyes, clasped his hands together and bowed to Xianyu Daxi, then spoke frankly:
"Hello, Master Xianyu! My brother and I are here as promised."
Yu Shuheng's voice was steady and powerful, with a reassuring demeanor.
Xianyu Daxi finally woke up from his dream and quickly stood up with an awkward smile on his face. He calmed himself down, walked forward, bowed and said:
"So it's the two immortals who have arrived. I'm so sorry for not welcoming you. Please take a seat, please take a seat!"
Having said that, Xianyu Daxi immediately made a pot of tea for the two of them and invited Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya to sit down and taste it.
Cough!
After the initial shock, Xianyu Daxi had realized the innocence and surprise in the two people's eyes, and he still felt quite embarrassed in his heart.
Ha ha!
Were these two people contemptuous of their own lack of knowledge? Did they not realize how shocking it was to be able to transform a living person? Or did they think that everyone could be as calm as he was?
Yes, Xianyu Daxi felt that his performance was quite good. If it were someone else, they would either be scared to death or faint from fear.
However, Xianyu Daxi could only complain in his heart. His face had regained its composure, and he smiled gently:
"This is Baihao Yinzhen, made with the precious snow on the stamens of last year's plum blossoms! Please have a taste, two immortals!"
"The tea needles are good when the buds are strong and plump, pure as silver and more precious than gold. The tea is made with natural color and is pure and spotless. It is really good tea."
Yu Shuheng thought of this poem and said it directly. Then he and Su Xiaoya began to appreciate the Baihao Yinzhen together.
When brewing begins, the tea buds float on the water surface. Now some of them have sunk to the bottom of the cup. More of them stand upright, crisscrossing up and down like bamboo shoots after rain. The tea soup has turned orange-yellow.
Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya looked at each other, then they raised their cups to smell the aroma. It was indeed a light fragrance, so they took a sip and savored it carefully. The taste was mellow.
"One year as tea, three years as medicine, and seven years as treasure. This tea is at least ten years old. It is indeed a rare good tea."
"Master Yu is indeed very knowledgeable. The longer this Baihao Silver Needle is stored, the higher its medicinal and drinking value will be. Baihao Silver Needle is warm in taste and cold in nature. It has the functions of invigorating the stomach, refreshing the mind, and relieving dampness and fever."
Xianyu Daxi looked at Yu Shuheng and smiled gently. This young man was truly a learned man. He could tell at the first sip that the white tea was more than ten years old.
"This is Northern Silver Needle." Su Xiaoya didn't have Yu Shuheng's abnormal sense of taste, and she could tell the difference even after years. However, she could still tell whether it was Southern Silver Needle or Northern Silver Needle. After all, Su Xiaoya also planted a few White Silver Needle tea trees in her space.
Beilu Yinzhen has a beautiful appearance, firm buds, thick and dense hairs that are shiny, the soup is clear and apricot-yellow in color, with a light aroma and a mellow taste.
Southern Silver Needle has a sturdy appearance, long buds, slightly thin hairs, and is not as lustrous as Northern Silver Needle, but has a fresh aroma and a strong flavor.
So, it is relatively easy to distinguish.
It was a coincidence. When Su Xiaoya collected the moonstone mine, she put the entire valley into the space to prevent others from using the moonstone mine to enter the moonstone mine secret realm.
Of course, that area has now become a large empty plain. Su Xiaoya scattered grass seeds all over it and shielded it with a formation.
After all, this is her secret base, so she has to manage it well.
Therefore, Su Xiaoya still has some say about Baihao Yinzhen. After she found the Baihao Yinzhen tea tree in the space, she directly checked it on the system.
"The picking of Baihao Yinzhen is very meticulous and the requirements are extremely strict. There are even strict rules such as 'Ten Things Not to Pick'."
"Master Su is really amazing! He even knows the 'Ten Things Not to Pick'."
Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya had some tacit understanding, so he simply cooperated with Su Xiaoya to make some funny moves, praised Su Xiaoya in an exaggerated way, and even winked at Su Xiaoya with his right eye after speaking.
Hearing Yu Shuheng's praise, Su Xiaoya looked at him proudly, and then began to explain nonstop:
"Of course! The so-called 'Ten No-picking Rules' specifically mean that tea should not be picked on rainy days, because rain will affect the quality of the tea. Tea should not be picked before the dew has dried, otherwise the tea leaves will be damp. Thin buds should not be picked, because they are not full enough. Purple buds should not be picked either, because they may contain undesirable ingredients. Buds damaged by the wind should not be picked, because they will affect the taste. Also, buds that have been damaged by humans, buds bitten by insects, buds that are not happy, as well as hollow buds and diseased buds, etc., all of these are not within the scope of picking."
"Not only that,"
Su Xiaoya continued, "Only plump single buds are picked for Baihao Yinzhen. If the new shoots picked are one bud and one leaf or one bud and two leaves, then only the bud core part is picked. This practice is usually called pulling out the needle, that is, pinching off the buds on one bud and one leaf or one bud and two leaves as the raw material for making Baihao Yinzhen, and the remaining stems and leaves can be used to make other colors of white tea or other types of tea."
As Su Xiaoya spoke, she gestured with her hands to imitate the action of picking buds, as if she was busy in the tea garden. Yu Shuheng couldn't help laughing, Xiaoya must be addicted to acting. Who would have thought that Su Xiaoya could be so naughty at times.
"Master Su is indeed well-informed."
After chatting over tea for a while, Xianyu Daxi relaxed a little, and the sense of restraint brought by the distance between immortals and mortals gradually disappeared.
Sure enough, having a common hobby is the best way to get closer. Listening to Yu Shuyou, Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya especially like to listen to stories, Xianyu Daxi already knows how to get closer to each other.
After all, the Su family is also one of the top ten families. They are allies! Why should we be nervous? Xianyu Daxi despised himself in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
Xianyu Daxi picked up the teacup, put it to his nose and sniffed it gently, then took a sip of tea.
Ah!
I feel more at peace.
Xianyu Daxi then began to tell the legend of Baihao Silver Needle:
A long, long time ago, there was a year when Zhenghe County suffered a long drought. Not a drop of rain fell, the earth dried up, the crops withered, and people's lives were miserable.
Even more unfortunately, the plague began to spread everywhere, and many people became ill and were in critical condition.
During this difficult time, a legend began to spread: it was said that there were several magical herbs growing next to a Longjing well on Donggong Mountain, and their juice could cure various diseases and restore people to health.
This news illuminated people's hearts like a ray of hope. After hearing the news, many brave young men embarked on a journey to find the magic herb.
However, it is regrettable that these brave young men never returned, and no one knows what happened to them.
