Chapter 678
Su Dongpo said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it seems that we just came early, it might as well be a coincidence!"

Sima Guang also smiled and said, "Exactly."

Qiyun old man said beside him: "The two gentlemen are all masters of tea fighting. I have a three-person tea fighting. I wonder if I can invite the two gentlemen to judge?"

Su Shi looked at the tea table of the three of them. On the tea table, there were all kinds of gold and silver utensils, all of which were top-grade tea fighting utensils. He looked at the tea group of the three of them. Qing Dougong introduced: "The three of us The teas prepared are Guzhu purple bamboo shoot tea, Nanyue Yangxian tea, and Qiantang West Lake Longjing tea."

Su Shi nodded and said: "Well, well, well, all of them are good teas, so we have no choice but to tease and taste the teas of the three of you."

Qing Dougong and the three of them clasped their hands together, and then went back behind their own tea table.

Lu Yu and Lin Yi stood at the side, and when they saw Su Shi, they nodded and said, "He is handsome, he seems to be like-minded."

Lin Yi also nodded, and said, "Mr. Sima and Mr. Su also had a tea fight."

"Oh?" Lu Yu looked at Lin Yi, "I wonder who won?"

Lin Yi said: "Mr. Su is good at water, and Mr. Sima is good at tea. There is no difference between the two."

Lu Yu nodded, and then looked at the three people fighting tea,
To fight tea in the Song Dynasty, first grind the tea.

The tea grinding is also very particular. The tea cake must be crushed and ground into a fine powder before proceeding to the next step of drinking tea in the Song Dynasty. Drink the tea powder with water. If the tea powder is not well made, it will not only affect the following The paste can also affect the taste of tea.

Qing Dougong is the oldest, he fights tea for a long time, and is proficient in his techniques. Old man Qiyun is similar, and Mr. Fang is a little younger, but his techniques are also quite sophisticated.

Su Shi and Sima Guang nodded, and then saw the three of them grinding the tea powder and boiling water beside them.

Tea, tea, water is also very particular.

Qing Dougong showed everyone the water he had brought, and said, "I take this water from the mountain, it is the spring water in the mountain."

Old man Qiyun also smiled and said, "It's the same for a certain person."

Mr. Fang also said: "Someone."

All three of them are veterans of tea and know what is the best and what is the worst. Since they want to fight for tea, they will never choose the worst thing.

In the water category, the three of them were tied again.

Lu Yu was standing next to him, very interested. Tea fighting in the Tang Dynasty was not as delicate as tea fighting in the Song Dynasty. It was the first time he saw such an exquisite tea fighting method, and Lu Yu was very interested.

Hearing the three people talking about water, he said: "People in later generations will understand the importance of water. Good tea does not have good water, just like a good horse does not have a good saddle. Although a horse can be ridden without a good saddle, tea is like good water, and you cannot drink it. "

"What Lu Gong said is that the water of these three people is the same."

Lu Yu laughed and said: "The mountain spring water here is also different from other mountain spring water. For example, the water curtain water in Kangwang Valley in Lushan Mountain is better than the stone spring water in Huishan Temple in Wuxi, and the rock water in Qizhou Lanxi is better than the frog mouth water at the foot of Fanshan Mountain. The stone spring water from Qiusi Temple, the water from the bridge pool below Zhaoxian Temple in Luzhou, and the zero water from the south of the Yangtze River all have different tastes, but if you only talk about mountain spring water, it’s hard to tell which is better.”

Lu Yu sighed and talked about it, but Su Shi listened to it seriously. He looked at Lu Yu in the crowd, walked over and cupped his hands and said, "This gentleman is a person who understands tea and water."

Lu Yu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "No talent, in my spare time, I often visit the four places, so I know something."

Su Shi stretched out his hand to grab Lu Yu, asked him to sit down, and said to the crowd: "It's a pity that this gentleman doesn't comment."

"This little friend, please take a seat together."

Everyone nodded, they had heard Lu Yu's words just now, Qing Dougong and the other three also cupped their hands and said, "Sir, you are talented."

Qingdou Gong showed joy, he did not expect that this time the tea party, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, just came Su Shi and Sima Guang, and it was his good fortune that there was another person who knew tea very well.

Lu Yu sat beside Su Shi, and Lin Yi also sat beside him. Lu Yu said, "Then respect is worse than obedience."

The four sat down, and the three of Qing Dougong continued to fight tea.

The water was poured into the bottle, and Qing Dougong and the three became quiet, listening to the movement of the water.

The mouth of this bottle is small, so I can't see the state of the water inside, so I mostly rely on listening to the sound of the water.

When the water was boiled, the three of them scooped a spoonful of tea powder into a cup, and then put it into the soup to make the paste.

Blending the ointment is the first step in ordering tea. Pay attention to the weight and lightness of your hands. The tea ointment should be applied to the teacup pen, and it should be very even, so that there is little tea ointment left on the tea.

This step reflects the importance of grinding the tea powder just now. If the tea powder is not evenly beaten, the tea paste will also be unevenly distributed, and mistakes will occur in the next steps.

After mixing the ointment, the three of them took the soup and poured water quickly, and then began to order tea back and forth.

Seeing this step, debates began in the foreign live broadcast room.

"Isn't this our sunrise matcha?"

"Yeah, isn't this matcha from sunrise?"

"We also whipped it up like this. Could it be that our matcha is the source of China?"

"Huaxia's ordering tea copied our matcha tea?"

Many people booed in the live broadcast room, but there were also rational people who refuted.

"Aren't you, are you blind? I remember that RB matcha started to be whipped right away, well, Huaxia's tea needs to be mixed first!"

"That's right, don't you see that if you pop a bubble, it's yours. Don't you know where it came from?"

"Matcha is not the same as ordering tea, really."

Some viewers in China also questioned it.

"Why does it feel so much like sunrise matcha?"

"That's right, it really looks like it."

"No way, is this replacing the Song Dynasty with the Japanese?"

As soon as these remarks appeared, they were quickly overwhelmed.

"Huh? Say it again, I'm absolutely amazing, why are there so many Jiu Leu fish!"

"There is nothing to doubt. Sunrise Matcha came from ordering tea in the Song Dynasty. Besides, have you missed it? There are two ways to order tea in the Song Dynasty. One is to directly mix the cream and foam, and the other is to add soup. Foaming, this is the second type!"

"It's amazing. How does this look like it? The water in the Jianzhan has not been filled yet. Ordering tea in the Song Dynasty is very complicated. Well, do you think that in the extravagant era of the Song Dynasty, something as simple as matcha would be made? Just kidding. "

In the picture, the three of Qing Dougong ordered tea for the first time, the color of the tea soup in the cup gradually appeared, and the soup flowers inside gradually began to grow, like pomegranates, piled up together.

The second time of adding soup is the same as the first time, the amount of water is less than the cup noodles. To keep the tea noodles, the beating of the tea body gradually focuses on the symmetry, and the rounds are repeated. White tea foam the size of a crab's eye gradually appears in the cup. At this time, the tea has been prepared in sevens and eighties.

Qing Dou Gong Dou tea has been aged for a long time. When adding soup for the second time, the advantage has already appeared. His foam is fine and even, and he is not in a hurry, very elegant and natural.

Old man Qiyun was not much different, the strength of the tea gun held by Mr. Fang was not as strong as the two, and the strength was different. The tea foam was not as white as snow, but a little darker.

The tea soup has been played until now, and the questioning viewers in the live broadcast room have gradually quieted down, especially the audience in foreign live broadcast rooms.

It can be clearly seen that this Song Dynasty order tea is completely different from Japanese matcha.

When ordering tea in the Song Dynasty, the tea foam was as white as snow.

Sunrise matcha, tea foam and tea powder are mixed together for a green color.
