Inside the Four Treasures Shop of the Study called "Jiyue Qingfeng".
There were still a few customers in the store, and the only clerk was introducing them to them, but very few of them actually paid for anything.
One is that not many people write with pens these days, let alone an inconvenient writing tool like a brush.
Furthermore, the items in this shop are not cheap. A brush costs hundreds, and an inkstone costs several thousand yuan. Who wouldn’t think carefully about it?
However, this store has quite a big storefront. The rent in this antique market will definitely not be cheap. I don’t know how it can be maintained?
In a corner of the store, there was a tea seat separated by a wooden screen. Two people were sitting across from each other at the moment, and the water in the teapot was already gurgling.
The man sitting in the main seat is about fifty years old and should be the owner of the shop here.
It was he who was doing the work of washing the tea sets, and he looked like he was entertaining guests.
The man sitting opposite the shop owner had a red face. Just looking at his appearance, you couldn't tell how old he was. He also exuded a special temperament.
This man's hair was meticulously combed back, and he had a short beard under his chin. His eyes exuded a strange light, and he had a calm and upright aura even when he was sitting there.
And he was wearing a double-breasted silk Tang suit with a pair of cloth shoes on his feet. He looked somewhat similar to Gu Shen's outfit. I wonder if Gu Shen deliberately imitated it?
"Brother Li, the water has boiled three times and is ready to be poured into the cup!"
The red-faced man seemed to have been staring at the teapot next to him, and suddenly spoke.
At the same time, the shop owner named Li had already raised his hand.
The words and actions of the two people were almost at the same time, which shows that they have high requirements for the quality of tea, and they are masters of tea ceremony at first glance.
laugh……
The fine tea leaves that had been placed long ago were washed with boiling water, and they suddenly made a soft sound.
Then a burst of tea steam started to rise, and the entire tea seat was filled with the aroma of tea.
After a while, the man in Tang suit picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Then, a look of enjoyment appeared on his face.
"Brother Li's tea ceremony skills are truly outstanding in Daxia. Wu's trip is well worth it!"
The man in Tang suit was holding a tea cup in his hand, and he did not hesitate to praise him, which made the shop owner opposite also have a faint smile on his face.
"Brother Wu, if you drink my tea, don't forget to write a couplet for me to hang at the door."
It seemed that shopkeeper Li's tea was not so delicious. As soon as the other party took a sip, he couldn't wait to speak out, making the man named Wu opposite him dumbfounded.
You must know that the plaque of Ji Yue Qingfeng was made by this person.
Shopkeeper Li has always wanted the other party to write another couplet for him, but he has never found the opportunity.
This time the other party finally made a trip down the mountain, so shopkeeper Li naturally wanted to seize this opportunity.
He even brought out the best tea in his shop and used his best tea-making skills.
"A cup of tea, a word, it's up to you!"
The man surnamed Wu was not so easy to fool. He picked up the tea and took another sip. The words that came out of his mouth made the smile on the face of shopkeeper Li opposite him grow a little stronger.
"Haha, I know your brother Chengjing's handwriting is not so easy to pick up."
Shopkeeper Li laughed. After hearing his two words, Wu Chengjing opposite also smiled slightly.
"Your Li Ji's good tea is not so delicious!"
As soon as these words came out, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, seeming to feel that they had taken advantage.
This is called everyone getting what he needs, everyone getting what he needs.
One of the two is good at tea ceremony, and the other is good at calligraphy and painting. They each have their own strengths, and they have always coveted the other's things.
Or maybe the two of them have been old friends for many years, and what they just said was just a joyful conversation between old friends.
"Brother Wu suddenly came down the mountain this time. He just wanted to drink a cup of tea from me, right?"
Li Ji added tea to the other party's tea cup and asked seemingly casually. In fact, he was really curious.
After all, Wu Chengjing is his old friend. Due to his special status, he has not left the mountain for almost three years. The two friends have not seen each other for three years.
Therefore, Li Ji knew clearly that if it was not something important, this man would definitely not come out. At most, he would send his disciples out to deliver the news.
"Hey, Brother Li is one of my own family, so I don't need to hide it from you."
Wu Chengjing put down the tea cup gently, sighed first, and then said: "Unfortunately, there is a scum in the teacher's family. I am going out personally this time to clean up the family."
As soon as these words came out, Li Ji's expression couldn't help but change.
He clearly knew where the sect Wu Chengjing was talking about was, it was an ancient martial arts sect that was far away from the world.
The Wu Chengjing in front of him is a big shot in that sect. It is said that people in this sect have practiced martial arts since they were young and are all talented people.
It's just that the rules of these sects are extremely strict. Although they are not allowed to have disciples born, they must not show off their skills easily. Violators will be severely punished by the sect.
"Brother Wu, is the matter serious?"
Li Ji asked carefully, but the next moment he saw a look of anger on the face of Wu Chengjing opposite him.
"Killing someone, do you think it's a big deal?"
When Wu Chengjing said these words, Li Ji immediately shut up.
Because he clearly knew that this kind of thing was definitely not something he could get involved with.
And a disciple of the ancient martial arts sect actually killed someone outside. This is already a shocking thing, and may attract the attention of some special departments in Daxia.
"Alas, it was my oversight that led to this big mistake, so I had to take action myself."
Wu Chengjing didn't say much about the details of the incident. He sighed again and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about these bad things. Let's drink tea."
Li Ji raised the tea cup, but he could feel that Wu Chengjing's mood seemed to have become a bit worse at this moment, and the smile just now was no longer visible on his face.
This made Li Ji regret a little bit why he asked more questions just now. Otherwise, wouldn't the other party be in a better mood if he didn't think of it?
"Master, Master!"
After drinking another cup of tea, a voice suddenly came from the door of the store.
Li Ji, who heard this voice or that title, couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Qing Ge is here, brother Wu's mood should be better, right?"
It seems that Li Ji also knows Mu Qingge, Wu Chengjing's disciple, and knows that she is Brother Wu's favorite and has always treated her as his own daughter.
Sure enough, while Li Ji was thinking, Wu Chengjing had already turned his attention to the door.
The haze on his face just now seemed to have mostly dissipated in this moment.
