be careful, there might be a trap. Hua Yan stared at the boatman, his entire being on guard. He then looked at the seemingly calm lake and reminded Xia Pingan in a low voice, ” our divine power has been sealed here. We don’t know if there are other things in the lake. If there are mermen or other water monsters in the lake, we will be in danger if we get on the boat and sail into the lake. This could be a trap.

Hua Yan had her reasons, but her reasons were based on her own judgment and understanding of the environment here. Xia Pingan’s understanding of this place was on a completely different level.

“I don’t think there’s any danger. If we don’t go and take a look, we might be trapped here!” Xia Pingan said with a smile.

Hua Yan warned, ” you’re going? There are many incredible rooms in this divine Palace, and many of them are filled with hidden dangers. Those who enter these rooms might lose their lives if they’re not careful!”

“There might also be special opportunities in these rooms. Senior Sister apprentice Hua, if you don’t trust me, you can wait here. I will go take a look!” As Xia Pingan spoke, he did not hesitate any longer. He stretched out his body and leaped up like a big Bird. With a light tap on the branch beside him, he leaped over a distance of more than ten to twenty meters and landed steadily on the boatman’s boat.

Xia ping ‘an landed on the small boat. It only swayed up and down slightly, creating a circle of ripples on the calm lake.

“Hahaha, this young master has good skills!” The judge praised Xia ping ‘an with a smile.

“No, I’m just trying to make a living!”

Hua Yan didn’t expect Xia Pingan to be so ” rash. when she saw Xia Pingan fly onto the boat, she remembered what her master had said. She gritted her teeth slightly and leaped up, landing on the small boat and standing at the bow of the boat with Xia Pingan.

young master and young lady, please take a seat. I’m going to row the boat now, ” the boatman said as he started to wave the boat. The boat turned around deftly in the lake and slowly sailed towards the Misty Island. While waving the boat, the boatman started to sing at the top of his voice.

“Build the silver Cloud, remove the moon, plant the cold flowers to express sorrow. When the sun comes and the heavens want it, spring will fill Jiangnan, who will leak it? Coral as the tree, Jade as the skin, deep water as incense sandalwood. The wild bridge was horizontal, the cold stream was clean, the smoke from the broken house was dancing, and the old tree was crushing the snow in the corner. Feng Liu refused to accept Wang Xie Zhen, Gu Gao laughed evilly. Xiao ran has no fate with the secular world.”

With the singing of the boatman, the skiff leisurely passed through the tranquil lake and the thin mist.

Xia Pingan was experiencing the leisurely mood of watching the snow in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. At this moment, this scene, the indifferent mood of ” the shadow on the lake is only a trace on the long dam, a little bit in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, and the boat is the same, but the people on the boat have two or three ” was simply wonderful.

Hua Yan, on the other hand, could not feel any of this. She was on full alert, her whole body like a taut bow, staring at the water and the cheonggong, ready to attack at any time.

After a short while, the boatman’s singing stopped and the small boat came to an Island in the lake.

There was a Pavilion in the middle of the island, and there was someone sitting alone in the pavilion. There was tea, a stove, and all kinds of exquisite tea sets. That person was boiling water and boiling tea. Outside the pavilion, there were winter plum blossoms everywhere, and a faint fragrance floated. That person was watching the snow and boiling tea at the same time. It was very elegant.

young master and young lady, my master is in the pavilion. You can go up and take a walk, ” the judge said.

thank you for guiding Lao Ai, ” Xia Pingan thanked him. He tapped his feet on the bow of the boat and flew onto the island. Hua Yan followed him.

The island was not big. Xia Pingan walked a few steps and arrived outside the pavilion. Inside the pavilion, an old man in green with snow-colored hair was brewing tea. The old man was dressed in elegant and plain clothes from the Ming Dynasty, but he had a noble temperament. His eyes were warm and full of spirit, and his every move had an indescribable charm.

This was Zhang Dai, the dissolute ancient sword elder. If young master qingji was the representative of the Chinese aristocrats in the spring and autumn era, from which one could see the bravery and Valiance of the Chinese aristocrats, then this Zhang Dai was another representative of the Chinese aristocrats. From Zhang Dai, one could see the civilization and dissatisfaction of the Chinese aristocrats when they were in prosperity and the unyielding integrity when their country and family were destroyed.

The old man in front of him was not a hedonistic son of a rich family, but he loved prosperity, good houses, good maids, good clothes, good food, good horses, good lanterns, good fireworks, good pear gardens, good propaganda, good antiques, good flowers and birds, good at tea and orange abuse, and good at calligraphy and poetry, he was a demon of poetry.

After 50, his country was destroyed. The old man lived in the mountains, broke the cauldron and sick zither, and wrote the History of the Ming Dynasty with the broken books and the accompanying vegetables and butlers.

the water has just been boiled. The two of you can come to the pavilion to have a drink. Zhang Dai waved his hand gently, inviting Xia ping ‘an and Hua Yi to enter.

“Since teacher is in a good mood, then I will be impolite to refuse!” Xia Pingan smiled and walked into the pavilion calmly, sitting opposite Zhang Dai. Hua Yan followed him in and sat next to Xia Pingan, but judging from the way she squinted at Zhang Dai, it seemed that she was ready to draw her sword and cut him in half at any moment if something happened.

Zhang Dai was making tea. His every move was calm and pleasing to the eye, and the tea was ready in an instant.

The tea was boiling in the White porcelain cup, and the fragrance of the tea was refreshing. The color of the tea was like bamboo, and the green powder was mixed. It was also like the mountain window that had just been set up, shining through the paper and making people feel pleased.

In the heart of such a snow-covered Lake, to be able to drink a cup of hot tea was truly an elegant and beautiful thing.

Looking at the beautiful tea, Xia Pingan’s heart stirred as he recalled some of Zhang Dai’s past. Zhang Dai was not a hedonistic son who only knew how to eat, drink, and play. His epitaph was self-humility, but in fact, he had extremely high attainments and was immersed in all aspects, especially in the Way of Tea. When he was young, he liked to compete with others in tea, and later, when he gradually became a great tea master, he had made a tea that was famous all over the world.

please. Zhang Dai smiled and picked up his teacup.

Sir, please. Xia Pingan also picked up his teacup, blew on it, and took a sip.

As soon as the tea entered his throat, it turned into a refreshing and fragrant aura that spread throughout his body. Xia Pingan felt that the divine power in his secret mandala was boiling. The upper limit of his divine power in the firmament algae well in his secret mandala was originally 6988 points. Just by taking a sip, the upper limit of his divine power had increased by 5 points, making it 6993 points in an instant.

Xia Pingan was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was hallucinating. He carefully felt it and realized that his upper limit of divine power and divine power had indeed increased by 5 points at the same time. Xia Pingan could not help but take another sip, and the upper limit of his divine power and divine power increased by another 5 points, directly becoming 6998 points. In the blink of an eye, he had drunk half a cup of tea, which was equivalent to fusing half of the realm Pearl.

Hua Yan, however, did not drink the tea. She looked at Zhang Dai warily, secretly blaming Xia Pingan for being so reckless. She even used her eyes to signal Xia Pingan not to drink.

Xia Pingan raised his head and drank the entire cup of tea. The remaining half cup added another 10 points of divine power and the upper limit of his divine power. Xia Pingan’s divine power suddenly broke through 7000 points and reached 7008 points.

A cup of tea, 20 points of divine power, where in the world could you replace such a good thing.

Senior Sister Hua, you should have a cup too. This tea is hard to replace in this world, and it has endless wonderful uses. It will be of great benefit to you and me! Xia Pingan said directly to Hua Yan.

Hua Yan was slightly taken aback. She saw that Xia Pingan did not seem to be joking, and she kept winking at her. Furthermore, Xia Pingan seemed to be fine after drinking the tea. She lowered her head to look at the fragrant and alluring tea, gently picked up the teacup, and took a small sip.

After only a few seconds, Xia Pingan saw Hua Yan’s eyes suddenly light up, as if she had finally realized the beauty of this tea. She took another sip. After a few seconds, Hua Yan’s face finally changed, and she could not help but drink the tea in the cup in one gulp.

“Senior Sister Hua, what do you think? I didn’t lie to you, right?” Xia Pingan smiled.

this tea is indeed extraordinary. Hua Yan let out a long breath and smiled. In this divine Palace, there were great dangers and great opportunities. The situation in front of him was an opportunity. Hua Yan immediately reacted and apologized to Zhang Dai. it’s my first time here. I was too careful. If I have offended you, please forgive me!

“Hahaha, it’s fine!” Zhang Dai laughed out loud. Under Xia ping ‘an and Hua Yan’s expectant gazes, he poured them another cup of tea. He looked at Xia ping’ an and Hua Yan and said, ” this young master has a strong aura like a valiant general. This young lady is dressed in a black dress, which seems to match him well. However, if this young master is a scholar and you are wearing a white dress today, it would be even more interesting if the two of you could perform ‘the story of Thunder Peak’ here today.

Hua Yan didn’t understand why Zhang Dai would say this and was completely confused. Xia Pingan, on the other hand, knew that Zhang Dai was comparing him and Hua Yan to Xu Xian and the White Lady and was joking with them. Zhang Dai liked opera, and in the Ming Dynasty, after Chen liulong had written records of Thunder Peak, the White Lady had also stepped onto the stage of the overture.

ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem. Xia Pingan coughed twice and hurriedly smiled at Zhang Dai. if Sir likes it, please make us a few pots of tea to moisten our throats. This lady and I will act in whatever Sir likes!

Zhang Dai smiled and shook his head. the most important part of watching a show is the first appearance. This girl is beautiful and dignified, and she can play the White Lady in a white dress. You’re a bald man, so no matter how you play, you can’t play the role of a weak scholar. Your bald head reminds me of that old monk who spoiled the scenery. I can’t match you at first glance. Forget it, forget it.

Xia Pingan was speechless. If he had known earlier, he would have turned into a fair-faced young man. He didn’t know what was wrong with him that made him turn into such a bald man. He might have missed an opportunity.

Although he felt that it was a pity, Xia Pingan’s hands were not idle. He picked up the cup and drank another cup of tea in one breath. The upper limit of his divine power suddenly reached 7028 points.

In the blink of an eye, he had drunk four cups of tea, and the pot of water was empty. The upper limit of Xia Pingan’s divine power had also increased to 7068 points.

“Sir, may I know the name of this tea?” Hua Yan asked, somewhat unsatisfied.

I haven’t thought of a name for this tea yet. Why don’t you give me a name? if I’m satisfied with the name you give me, I’ll make you another pot of tea! Zhang Dai asked with a smile.
