Chapter 110 Chapter 22: The Secret of Inheritance

There are sixteen gold plates hanging in the ancient temple, which contain the lost part of the Canon, and most of them are miracles passed down by tea masters in ancient times.There are not many heroes among the tea people, who can be counted on ten fingers, and only Lu Yu and others can write books, so the stories passed down by the tea people have long been lost.I had never heard of the content recorded in the gold tablet, so I was so dumbstruck that I forgot about finding water. When I read the last pair of gold plates, there was no record of tea on it, but a secret about the incomplete scriptures passed down from generation to generation.I mistakenly thought that I read it wrong, so I took the trouble to read the last paragraph again: "The scriptures are secret and not passed on. Anyone who gets a broken book is a king. He must change his surname to Yang to respect its order. The scriptures are divided into three parts." , One is the remnant book, the other is the golden book, and the three are hidden in Yuequan, and they are returned after viewing, and they are not allowed to be taken away. The three are the secrets of our sect, and the source is recorded. Only the king knows it, and don’t tell anyone else.”

It turns out that this is not the full text of the scriptures, but the second part.There are three copies of scriptures handed down by the tea king, one is the broken scriptures in my hand, the other is the gold tablet scriptures, and the third is hidden somewhere in the ancient city.I don't know if "Moon Spring" refers to the whole city or just a certain spring.It can be seen from the text that the last part records the origin of the tea king, which can only be known to the tea king himself, but not to the second person.Moreover, after reading the third part of the scriptures, they must be put back in their original place and cannot be taken away.If it can be preserved for thousands of years, the third scripture must be made of special materials. I don’t know if I have a relationship with it.

After reading this passage, Mu Qingxiang and I looked at each other in blank dismay. It turns out that the person who got the broken scriptures is the tea king, and this is the way to pass on the tea king.I can't believe this. If there is such a family rule, then Yangchishan has passed the position of tea king to his grandfather when he was in Fohai, and my grandfather left the position of tea king to me when he was in Nanyang, and I At that time, I was still a kid who couldn't wipe his nose clean. After reading the scriptures on the gold tablets, Mu Qingxiang looked at me blankly and said, "When Lu Donghao gave you the scriptures, didn't he mention the contents on the gold tablets to you?"

I was stunned, thinking in my heart that Mu Qingxiang always called the elders by their full names, it was really a big treason, at least my grandfather was also the last tea king.Thinking about it that way, I like Mu Qingxiang's character.Names are meant to be called by people, and if people don't want to be called by their full names, they should just not use their first names.Everyone is called Emperor Zhao, Queen Mother Li, and Prince Zhang, so everyone is happy.Maybe the secular etiquette is not learned, which makes Mu Qingxiang different, and I can't bear to blame her. I was speechless for a minute before I opened my mouth and said, "When my grandfather gave it to me, he drank too much that day. After he gave me the scriptures, he didn't mention it again. Didn't my uncle say that my grandfather went to Mingling , He has never been to the ancient city of Yuequan, so how could he know what was written in the golden scriptures, and he would not know that there are actually three copies of the scriptures."

"I think he already knows." Mu Qingxiang completely ignored my judgment. My heart was very confused, thinking of this vain title of tea king, I didn't know whether to be happy or sad.What era is it now, and you are really crazy if you are still king or not. You are not afraid that the police will arrest you on charges of anti-humanity and anti-society.I took the title of Tea King for nothing, but I can't eat it, whoever loves it should do it.Now that it's my turn to be the king of tea, it's up to me to end this boring rule. Anyway, I will never write the broken scriptures into a booklet and pass it on to the next unlucky ghost.

Grandfather may have done it unintentionally, because he didn't ask me to change my surname to Yang, and he shouldn't have changed my name.But the grandfather and his group were all focused on finding the secret of the tea king. Could it be that when he returned to the mainland in 1971, when he was looking for the elixir for his second uncle, he accidentally discovered the secret of tea, so he realized that he was the tea king.My grandfather probably never dreamed that I would come to the ancient city and unlock the secret of the tea scriptures. "If possible, I'd really like to see what the third scripture says." After I finished speaking, I glanced at Mu Qingxiang and added hastily, "But I'm not interested in the title of Tea King."

"If you read the third scripture, maybe you won't be proud of the tea king." Mu Qingxiang said coldly. "Why? At least he is a king, although not so formal." I asked sourly. "Didn't you see the meaning of the last sentence?" Mu Qingxiang asked me back, her tone was a bit disdainful. The last paragraph is "The three treasures are in Yuequan, and they are returned after viewing, and they are forbidden to be taken away. The three are the secrets of our sect, and the source is contained. Only the king knows it, and don't tell others." I read it carefully, and I read it. question.The remnants of the scriptures can be carried with you, but the gold pieces are inconvenient to carry, so they are kept in the ancient city. The material of the third scripture is temporarily unknown, but since the origin of the tea king is recorded, why is it not allowed to be disclosed to others.It's not obvious, it's enough to know the scandal, that is to say, the tea king's origin is disgraceful, maybe they are all eunuchs.

Mu Qingxiang and I talked to you, I talked to each other, and I was a little carried away. It was not until a long whistle came from the ancient city that I regained my senses from the scriptures.I whispered to myself, there is danger over the stone pagoda, the little cousin and the others will not have another accident.Just now we waited for Uncle Chen to come back, but we didn't see him come back after waiting for a long time, so we could only read scriptures to pass the time. Fortunately, the ancient temple was very close to the stone pagoda, and when Mu Qingxiang and I rushed back, the whistle didn't stop.Back in front of the stone pagoda, I was startled. A group of wolves crowded the entrance of the fiery pagoda hall, each of which sprayed gray hot air.I cursed secretly, who blew the whistle, didn't this tell me to die?Attracted by the footsteps of Mu Qingxiang and me, the wolves turned their heads and stared at us viciously.

I preemptively shot a few shots in succession before the wolves retreated a few steps.Mu Qingxiang and I took the opportunity to sneak back to the pagoda hall, but as soon as we stepped in, the wolves approached the stone pagoda again.A full fire was burned at the gate of the temple. Uncle An used up all the solid fuels, and it could burn for a day and a night at most. After tomorrow, there would be nothing to burn.After a while of shock, I counted the number of people in the pagoda hall in confusion, and there were actually two people missing—the little cousin and Nan Gongxiong were gone. I anxiously asked Uncle An: "What happened when we were looking for water? Where did Lu Yuwei and Nan Gongxiong go?"

Uncle An stood in front of the fire in panic, and replied casually: "You have been away for too long, and your cousin is worried, so I went to find you with Nan Gongxiong. I thought you were all together..." Uncle Chen held the shotgun and said to us: "As soon as I got here, the wolves surrounded us. After the fire was finished, Juan blew his whistle to remind Lu Yuwei and the others to be careful." I thought to myself that the whistle just now was not for us, but it was so dark, the little cousin and Nan Gongxiong should have come back, maybe they were blocked by wolves on the way.Although the ancient city is big, you can always hear the whistle, and it's not very noisy here.The ancient city is not peaceful, and it's not like they don't know it, so why dare they run around.I couldn't feel at ease, and wanted to go out to find someone, but Mu Qingxiang stopped me at this moment.She didn't tell me to be careful on the road, nor did she keep me because she was worried about me, but the comatose Zhao Shuai finally woke up.

With a heavy heart, I turned around and walked to Zhao Shuai who was leaning against the wall. I squatted down and wanted to say something comforting, but I couldn't utter a single word.There was no blood on Zhao Shuai's face, he was too weak to move, and his eyes were only half-opened.Looking at this former friend, my nose was sore, and seeing his broken right leg, my heart was even more painful.To find the ancient city of Yuequan, I have nothing to do with Zhao Shuai. He is purely here to support my brother, or he will step on a landmine. After thinking for a long time, I finally said, "Don't worry, you'll be fine!" Zhao Shuai gave a wry smile, tilted his head, and said weakly: "Will you fucking talk? Give me hope for nothing. What's the use? Wouldn't it make me more disappointed? Who can take my leg back? Forget it, Save those nonsense, I understand what you mean." "I understand you, don't talk to me, you are a bitch?" I forced a smile, "There is still a pot of water here, you can drink it first." "Save it for you to drink, it's a waste if I drink it." Zhao Shuai gave up. I insisted that Zhao Shuai drink some water, but he refused no matter what, so in the end I had to let him do his best.In the afternoon, Zhao Shuai lost a lot of blood, and now he doesn't eat, and he can't get treatment. The most optimistic situation in this situation can only survive tomorrow morning.I was so angry that I blamed myself for causing my friend to fall into this field.Zhao Shuai saw what I was thinking, so he said it was all voluntary on his own accord, don't be so fucking sentimental and take the responsibility on yourself. I was still very sorry, and kept saying, "It's all my fault, if I let you come..." "Fuck, you still say that I look like a girl, so fucking shut up, okay! I don't have much time, I have something to say, and you have to remember every single word." Zhao Shuai panted with difficulty. At this time, Mu Qingxiang squatted halfway across from me, held Zhao Shuai's hand, and said softly: "I will always remember what you have done." "Ah?" After hearing these words, I was completely confused. What kind of play was this playing? When did Mu Qingxiang and Zhao Shuai get so close. The wolves were not willing to let us go, and crowded at the entrance of the pagoda hall, refusing to leave. Uncle Chen and Uncle An guarded them with full vigilance. The night wind whizzed past, and the tower seemed to be trembling non-stop.Zhao Shuai spoke desperately. He knew best that his life was about to come to an end, so he must explain the funeral at this time.I was about to take notes and listened intently, but what Zhao Shuai wanted to say was not asking me to take care of his parents, but what he did before. "Do you still remember how we met in Beijing?" Zhao Shuai smiled strangely. "Remember, I was alone at that time, and I wanted to go to the Forbidden City to open my eyes before leaving Beijing. I met you there, and you were still holding a foreign girl at that time." I recalled. Zhao Shuai shook his head, and bluntly said that he was actually playing for me, and it was not what I thought at all.Keep listening, no matter how smart I am, I never thought that Zhao Shuai knew Mu Qingxiang before I did, and I didn't know many things at all.Zhao Shuai and I studied at the same university in Wuhan. He was one year older than me and graduated a year earlier.During that year, besides meeting Mu Qingxiang, Zhao Shuai had other extraordinary experiences, but I never thought of asking. This is nothing, and what surprised me even more is that this is not the first time Zhao Shuai has entered the Tengger Desert, but the second time.
