Chapter 74 A long talk

Back at the Bamboo House, Bai Zhouyue had already prepared breakfast, which was some bamboo shoot soup with wild vegetables and steamed buns.

Mo Qi was not there, and should still be in Sun Xiangyi's room. Mo Yu walked to the stairs and listened briefly, but did not hear Sun Xiangyi's roar. Maybe he was tired from shouting, or maybe Mo Begging's behavior had an effect.

Bai Zhouyue brought hot water and handed it to Mo Yu: "Don't worry, the old guy is in good condition." When he just delivered the medicine, he already knew the situation upstairs and thought this method was feasible.

Mo Yu took the basin to the door of the house to wash up, wiped away his fatigue, took the towel handed over by Bai Zhouyue and wiped his face, exhaled and said: "The two of them are quite compatible, one has no father or mother, and the other has no mother.

The wife has no children, and it is a kind of fate to share the same emotions."

Bai Zhouyue quite agreed with this and nodded with a smile.

Before Mo Yu came back, Bai Zhouyue had already delivered breakfast to the second floor, and now only he and Mo Yu had not eaten yet.

Bamboo shoots are a major feature of the bamboo forest. They are collected from the new shoots of bamboo and dried into dried bamboo shoots. They are convenient for making soup and serving dishes. They are good for qi and stomach, clear away heat and cure thirst.

Bai Zhouyue lived in seclusion all year round, her craftsmanship was pretty good, her saltiness was moderate, and her behavior was generous. During the meal, she talked with Mo Yu, saying that she had lived a bloody life, but in the end she realized that this ordinary life was the most difficult and most valuable.

Mo Yu didn't have this understanding at this time. The ups and downs of the rivers and lakes were a quagmire. Once he fell into it, he couldn't wash his hands in a golden basin. The blood feud in the king's house had just begun.

After breakfast, Bai Zhouyue was more particular and insisted on dragging Mo Yu to drink tea. However, Mo Yu had no choice but to do as he pleased. He didn't understand the tea ceremony, so he just drank water.

There is a place for drinking tea, located on the east side of the first floor, next to the window, with a desk, futon, tea sets and cups.

The two sat opposite each other. Bai Zhouyue took out a kind of light green tea, and then began to heat the cup and the pot. The steam was steaming. The purple clay pot had been brewing tea for a long time, and the aroma was already filling the air.

When Mo Yu saw it for the first time, he was mostly curious and observed it carefully.

After the cups and pots were heated, Bai Zhouyue took a thin bamboo slice in her right hand, put the tea leaves in the bamboo slice trough, and introduced: "This is the horse dragon entering the palace."

In layman's terms, it means pouring the tea leaves into the pot. Bai Zhouyue's technique was skillful, and soon all the tea leaves were poured into the pot.

"People should wash their hands before eating, and the same goes for tea. You must wash your hands before brewing." Bai Zhouyue was pouring boiling water into the teapot and said casually.

It was difficult for Mo Yu to compare the person in front of him with the murderous devil, and exclaimed: "You have learned a lot today."

Bai Zhouyue chuckled, poured out the tea water, and poured in new water. During this period, he lit the spout three times. Seeing Mo Yu's confusion, he patiently said: "The pot cannot be filled up at once. This is called 'Phoenix Nodding Three'

.”

Mo Yu didn't seem to understand, watching the water pouring straight down, the tea leaves rolling, and the lake in his heart gradually calmed down.

After pouring the water, Bai Zhouyue picked up the lid of the pot and brushed off the tea foam floating on it. With a serious expression, she stared at the teapot without blinking: "This is the 'spring breeze blowing on the face', taking the essence and removing the dross."

Mo Yu has been in a state of receiving new knowledge, nodding and listening.

After whisking the tea foam, Bai Zhouyue covered the tea lid and poured boiling water over the body of the pot: "This is the last step of 'sealing' the lid. Pouring it with water should preserve the aroma of the tea. Next, just wait.

In a moment, you can share the cup and enjoy the tea."

After talking for a long time, Mo Yu looked confused. Bai Zhouyue couldn't help but smile and shook her head.

After a moment, a pleasant fragrance of tea wafted over the air, and Bai Zhouyue was shocked. Bai Zhouyue nodded with a smile, stood up, picked up the teapot, and slowly poured a cup for each of them.

"Pour 70% of the tea and 30% of the love. Please taste it." Bai Zhouyue made a greeting with her right hand and looked at Mo Yu expectantly.

Mo Yu thanked him, gently picked up the tea cup, put it under his nose and sniffed briefly, with a soothing expression, lightly pursed his lips, and slowly put it into his throat.

Putting down the tea cup, Bai Zhouyue smiled and asked, "How about it?"

Mo Yu didn't answer hastily, frowned and thought about it, and waited until the smell of tea disappeared before saying: "It's a little bitter in the mouth, but it's fragrant when you taste it carefully. It's refreshing. I'm sorry, Bai Lao, that's all I can say."

Bai Zhouyue waved her hand to show that she was okay, raised the teacup in front of her, took a sip, smacked her lips and said with emotion: "Tea is like life, it is bitter first and then sweet. Only those who are meditative can taste its meaning. You are a good boy, and you have the appearance of a great talent.

,only……"

Having said this, Bai Zhouyue stopped talking, shook her head and sighed.

Mo Yu's heart skipped a beat and he asked unclearly: "What advice does Mr. Bai have? I am all ears."

Bai Zhouyue pondered, staring at Mo Yu with flickering eyes, and said hesitantly: "I always have a feeling that you have a depressed mood in your heart, and the depression makes you look gloomy."

Bai Zhouyue's observation was so precise. Mo Yu felt awe-struck. He picked up the tea cup and drank again, hesitating whether to ask Bai Zhouyue some questions.

The two of them were silent for half a minute, each enjoying tea.

Finally, Mo Yu spoke: "Senior, I have a keen eye. Yes, I do have something on my mind. I would like to ask some questions, but I don't know if that's possible?"

Bai Zhouyue raised her eyebrows, waved her hand and said boldly: "Why not? But it doesn't matter. As long as I know what I know, I will tell you everything I know."

Mo Yu was determined in his heart. He recalled that the people who attacked Jun's Mansion that day were dressed in black, black robes, and gray masks. The "Twelve Sects of Heaven" that Uncle Yunwei said at the end should be the name of a certain force or organization. This is what he is currently talking about.

All information known.

It is not known why the monarch's family was exterminated, whether the enemy was seeking personal enmity, seeking property, or other reasons.

After careful consideration, Mo Yu decided to avoid the important and trivial matters first and asked some irrelevant and secret questions: "Old Bai, what are the major sects of the world's forces?"

Bai Zhouyue picked up the tea, blew on it, took a sip of tea, and said leisurely: "There are many sects in the world, big and small, ranging from one thousand to eight hundred. If we only talk about the rich and powerful, there are two gangs and three valleys on the first floor, and six evils and seven evils are clustered in the middle.

"

Before Mo Yu could ask, Bai Zhouyue continued to explain: "The first floor refers to the Baixiao Tower where you can go to the Xiaochao Hall and know everything about the world."

"The two gangs are from humble backgrounds, poor people, without official positions, salary, power and influence. Their purpose is to use the power of mantis arms and mayflies to block cars and shake trees. They are called the Shaking Helping Gang and the Beggars Gang."

"Three Valleys, the most unfounded force, does not rely on any force, and is respected by any force. There is the Juebing Valley where magic weapons are forged, the Miao Spring Valley where the hanging pot is used to help the world, and the Miao Spring Valley where famous doctors from all over the world are gathered. Regardless of one's origin, it has nothing to do with good or evil.

Luo collects the free valley of scattered people in the world."

"As for the six evils, they are the six major sects of our demon sect. You should know these. And the seven righteousness refers to the Taoist sect, Zen sect, Qixing Mountain, Ba Dao sect, Wanjian sect, and Longhu Mountain that claim to be the righteous sect.

, Luo Xing Pavilion.”

As a member of the Demon Sect, Bai Zhouyue had a lot of grudges against the righteous sect. She just casually mentioned the names of the seven righteous sects without further explanation.

The main business of the building is to take orders for killing people, and the undercover business makes a living by buying and selling Deadpools, and there is also the auction house, which specializes in buying and selling. There are many forces that have sprung up all over the place, and it is hard to explain and explain them all."

After saying this, Bai Zhouyue finished his cup of tea. Mo Yu felt grateful and stood up to pour tea for Bai Zhouyue.

What Bai Zhouyue said just now was that the Jianghu was a well-known force, and the Twelve Heavenly Sects were not among them. This made Mo Yu's heart even heavier. It seemed that this mysterious force was deeply hidden.

We do not rule out some ancient forces, as well as hidden sects. Depending on your strength, you will come into contact with certain circles. For now, you still need to become stronger.

Bai Zhouyue saw that Mo Yu was deep in thought without interrupting, and was drinking by herself. When Mo Yu came back to his senses, she said harmoniously: "But if you have any other questions, feel free to ask them."

Mo Yu smiled back, raised his glass and took a sip. Bai Zhouyue was so approachable, probably because of Sun Xiangyi's face and regarded her as his junior.

With warmth in his heart and no feeling of depression or discomfort, Mo Yu asked again: "How dare I ask Mr. Bai, which force usually likes to wear black clothes, black robes, and masks to show off to others?"

Bai Zhouyue narrowed her eyes, and if she had a meaningful look at Mo Yu's black robe, she had already guessed that Mo Yu had a grudge against this force.

But these were not important to him. Bai Zhouyue frowned and thought deeply for a long time, then said: "According to what you said, only the Ghost Sect and Shalou are more consistent. The former sect is all dressed in black and usually operates at night. It must be related to this.

It must be related."

"As for Shalou, they are engaged in the business of buying and selling murders. They have a killing team and a stabbing team. The killing team mostly wears black clothes and masks, while the stabbing team covers their faces with face masks. I don't know the specific situation. This killing team

The building was built unexpectedly more than twenty years ago, and its strength is unpredictable. It is said that a great power from the eighth heaven was killed by its hands."

Bai Zhouyue showed fear when talking about the Ghost Sect, but when talking about Shalou, her expression was fearful and solemn.

After listening to Bai Zhouyue's words, Mo Yu fell into deep thought.

The Ghost Sect is a member of the demon sect, and is indeed powerful. Their clothes and behavior are consistent, and it happened to be night when the Jun Mansion was attacked.

Shalou is somewhere between good and evil. Whether it's the clothes or the things he wears, he is consistent with the enemy that night! Bai Zhouyue just said that Shalou's origin is unknown and his strength is unpredictable. Even the Eighth Heavenly Power has killed him.

There is no guarantee that he will have the strength to deal with Jiuzhongtian.

Comprehensive comparison, the suspicion of killing Lou is still greater. After all, the Ghost Sect is only a demon sect. No matter how powerful it is, it is still under the control of the demon master. And my father defeated the demon master back then. No matter how the Junfu reduces its strength, there is still the dumb grandfather and the demon master.

Uncle Yunwei is definitely not something that the Ghost Sect can destroy.

With the speculation, Mo Yu was inevitably excited. After hesitating for nearly two years, he finally had an idea. Regardless of whether it was true or false, he had a direction before he could continue to delve deeper.

The more I thought about it, the more difficult it became to calm down. My mouth became dry, so I picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp. If it was not enough, I picked up the teapot and poured it again. I drank two or three cups in succession. Only then did I feel refreshed and my heart calmed down.

Bai Zhouyue smiled and said nothing about Mo Yu's abnormal behavior, not too surprised. After all, Mo Yu's questions were enough to explain something.

After Mo Yu calmed down, he remembered that he had just lost his composure, and felt embarrassed. He cupped his fists and said in shame, "I'm sorry, Mr. Bai, for wasting your good tea."

Bai Zhouyue raised her hand and pressed Mo Yu's fist down, chuckled, waved her hand and said: "In other words, the tea ceremony is to cultivate your sentiments and concentrate your mind. If you gain something, these rough tea leaves are not in vain."

During the conversation, Bai Zhouyue stretched her waist and stood up: "It's getting late, it's time for me to get some medicine again."

Mo Yu stood up to see him off, walked out of the bamboo building, and walked to the fence gate.

Bai Zhouyue persuaded Mo Yu to stop, turned around and walked towards the bamboo forest. When they were dozens of meters away, Bai Zhouyue's voice could be clearly heard in Mo Yu's ears.

"Little guy, if you need anything in the future, just say hello. Although I am old, I can still clean up some miscellaneous fish and shrimps."
