Chapter 131: Xianlai Teahouse
Chapter 131: Xianlai Teahouse
A mountain range stretches from east to west in the center of Qichuan Island, and the people on the island call it Haiming Mountain. It means that standing on the mountain can see the bright moon on the sea.
The main peak of Haiming Mountain is Yueming Peak, which is the highest peak of Haiming Mountains.
No one really knows how high the peak is, because Mingyue Peak is surrounded by clouds and fog all day long, and the peak has been hidden in the clouds and fog.
At the foot of the mountain, there is a small town called Xianmen Town.
Xianmen Town is home to people from all over the island, men, women, young and old, all of whom want to cultivate immortals.
I don't know how long Xianmen Town has been formed, and there are the most inns and restaurants.
In addition, there is a street called Xunxian, which is the most lively street.
Sellers of Cheats of Immortal Cultivation, Magical Item, Medicine Pill, and treasures.
On this day, on the main road outside Xianmen Town, a young man in white came slowly on the back of a white horse.
The young boy in white on the horse is Leng Rui. He thinks that most of the outstanding characters in movies and TV shows are white robes and white horses. So, I specially got a white horse, bought a white robe, and wandered to Xianmen Town.
We are approaching Xianmen Town, and there is a tall stone archway in front of it, with the word "Xianmen" written on it.
Not far from the archway, there is a small tea house, the house is all wood, the roof is covered with thick thatch.
Pick a small apricot-yellow flag at the door, and a big tea character is written on the flag.
Leng Rui just wanted to take a break, and learn about the situation in Xianmen Town by the way.
At the entrance of the teahouse, there is a tethering post, a water tank, and a feeding trough.
Seven or eight horses are tied here, eating grass leisurely.
Along the way, Leng Rui has gotten used to it.
Regardless of the restaurant or the inn, free fodder is provided at the door, as long as the horse is tied up, you don't have to worry about it.
The doors and windows of the teahouse are exquisite, and there is a couplet pasted on the doorway, which reads, "The dust and worries are gone for a while, and the cheeks of Xiangjin are born."
The two words "Xianlai" on the door seem to be the name of this teahouse.
Open the door and go in, the house is also very clean.
There is a counter at the door, and behind the counter are some small wooden signs with prices marked on them.
There are a dozen tables and chairs, the color is yellow with black, showing simplicity.
"Guest officer, please!" A shop waiter came up and greeted warmly.
There were so many people inside, only two tables were empty.
Leng Rui sat down on a table by the wall.
"Guest officer, what kind of tea do you want?" Xiaoer asked attentively.
"Let's make Yunwu tea!" Leng Rui drank it, and the cloud tea on the island is quite good.
"Guest officer, are you also here to cultivate immortals?" Xiao Er didn't answer, but asked Leng Rui instead.
"Yes!" Leng Rui said with a smile.
"There is a rule in our Xianlai teahouse. This tea is served in a set with cakes. The guest officer wants a set of ten taels of silver for Yunwu tea."
Fuck! what's going on? On the earth, the attractions are rip-offs, but this place is even darker!
Usually, a pot of tea costs ten or twenty renminbi, and good tea is about 100 renminbi. A pot of tea here dares to ask for ten taels of silver!
"Xiaoer, are you a killer?" Leng Rui's face turned angry.
"The guest officer misunderstood! We have been at this price for thousands of years. If you don't believe me, ask the customers around you!" The shop assistant said with a smile on her face.
There was a burst of laughter in the store. Obviously, the waiter was not lying.
Leng Rui looked around, it was a bit strange that everyone could still drink such expensive tea.
"Silly boy! This tea is not for nothing!" A man who looked like a nobleman said loudly.
Sitting with him, the other three laughed.
"Okay! Let's have a pot!" Leng Rui said lightly.
"Okay! A set of Yunwu tea!" Xiaoer yelled loudly while walking towards the counter.
In a blink of an eye, Xiao Er came over with a plate, a pot of tea, a cup, and four plates of snacks.
The waiter put them away one by one, poured the tea into the cup, said: "Guest officer take it easy!", turned and left.
Leng Rui picked up the cup and took a sip. The tea was really good. It was slightly bitter in the mouth, and immediately a gust of sweetness gushed out, making the tip of the tongue salivate and all irritability gone.
The dim sum is also very delicate, sweet and soft, and tastes great.
With a sip of tea and a sip of snacks, Leng Rui had a great time.
After eating it for a while, Leng Rui felt that something was wrong. No matter how delicious this tea and snacks are, they are not worth ten taels of silver. Normally, ten taels of silver is enough for an ordinary person to live for one year.
After thinking about it, he called the shop waiter.
"Second brother, what can you say about the ten taels of silver for a set of refreshments?" Leng Rui asked.
"Our town is called Xianmen Town, which is the closest place to the gods. There is a saying that our small shop is called 'Xianlai. Drinking a pot of tea for ten taels of silver is definitely worth the money."
"How do you say that?" Leng Rui asked.
"Guest officer, please pay for the tea, I will let you know." Xiao Er said with a smile.
Leng Rui took out ten taels of silver and handed it to Xiao Er, keeping his eyes on him, waiting for Xiao Er to speak.
Xiaoer took the money, smiled slightly and said, "Guest officer, please come with me and see your fate!"
Leng Rui got up and followed Xiao Er out of the back door. It turned out that the teahouse had a backyard.
There are some flowers and plants planted in the yard, which looks very comfortable.
There is a house in the back, which is still a wooden house with a thatched roof.
Xiao Er pointed to the cabin and said: "Guest officer, ten taels of silver is not wronged, there is a living fairy inside, go and try your luck!"
Leng Rui is a little confused, what kind of operation is this!
However, since you're here, let's go in and have a look, ten taels of silver can't be spent in vain.
Pushing open the half-hidden wooden door, Leng Rui took a closer look, the walls were white and spotless.
An old man in white robes with white beard and hair was sitting on the futon, and a censer beside him was emitting wisps of green smoke.
This old man is definitely a real white-haired and child-like face. The skin on his face and hands is as delicate as that of a baby, and it seems that water will flow out when pinched.
"Sir, please sit down!" The old man pointed to a futon in front of him and said.
Leng Rui already felt the energy fluctuations on the old man.
"He is really a cultivator."
Leng Rui also imitated the old man, sitting on the futon.
"Please advise senior!" Leng Rui said respectfully.
"Did you come from the east?" the old man asked softly.
"Exactly!"
Leng Rui is really curious, this old man can do it! Can pinch will count.
"The old man was watching the sky last night, the stars were moving, and he saw a purple air coming from the east, could it be that it should be on the young master?" The old man stared at Leng Rui with piercing eyes, as if he wanted to see through him.
Leng Rui has a little joy in his heart, f*ck! Daddy is really so awesome?
"What is Tao?" the old man asked in a deep voice.
Leng Rui was taken aback for a moment, and immediately understood that this was a test of himself!
There are too many descriptions of this kind of thing in novels and movies on earth.
"Tao is the law of the operation of heaven and earth." Leng Rui said an answer in science and engineering.
The old man was slightly surprised, and asked again: "What is an immortal?"
This time, Leng Rui really didn't know how to answer.
yes? What is a fairy! It should be a group of people who do not eat fireworks and have boundless Magic power!
"Same life as heaven and earth, boundless Magic power, free and easy." Leng Rui replied.
"No! No!" The old man shook his head and laughed.
