Chapter 827: The Incident at 5 Cai’an
Saturday, August 26th, morning, Aono House, Minamiizu Town, Kamo-gun, Shizuoka Prefecture.
The six Maori, Ryoichi Aonogi, Morio Yagura, and Masako Mimura followed Yoshiko Hanazaki through the small bridge to wash their hands and entered the tea room. After seeing Ryozo Aonoki, they knelt down and presented gifts one by one.
"A small gift is not a respect." Mao Li opened the big box of the ordinary celebrity tea set bought in the mall, exposed the tea set, bowed his head and pushed it to the front.
Ryozo Aonogi glanced at it, and replied, "Thank you."
After Yoshiko Hanazaki accepted the gift, Sonoko opened the box she brought, "This is the jujube my father asked the students to give to the teacher. It is the work of the late living national treasure Mr. Showa Sai Ono."
Ryozo Aonoki held the base of the box and looked at it, "It's really a treasure in the world. I like this gift very much. I can only accept Mr. Suzuki's kindness. I will definitely come to thank you someday."
"Waiting for the teacher's visit at any time." Yuanzi smiled.
Masako Mimura also presented a set of tea sets, "This is a set of white porcelain tea sets that I asked Mr. Tsukamoto Mitsuru, the contemporary master of Mino Kuaishan Kiln, to make for my teacher."
Looking at the family crest on the tea set, Ryozo Aonogi nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Oh, I really have a heart."
Yagura Moruo said: "Yes, yes, although Mr. Tsukamoto Mitsuru is not yet a living national treasure, he will definitely get this title in the future. The investment value of this set of tea sets is very high."
"You!" Masako Sanmura's expression changed, and then he suppressed his anger and asked, "Since you said that, what did you bring to the teacher?"
Yakura Morio proudly showed a tea mortar, "This tea mortar is made by the Kuroki family of Kyushu Kogata Yaki. It was made in the Bunka period in 1810. It should be made by the second generation Kuroki Juhei master himself." He said. Come forward and offer, "Xiaolutian tea mortar is famous for its pounding sound. With such a tea mortar, the teacher's tea art will definitely be able to improve to a higher level."
Ryozo Aonogi said happily: "Okay, okay, I will use this for the tea party this afternoon."
"Crack!" Mimura Masako heard the sound of something snapping in the sleeve of her kimono, presumably she was so angry that she broke her fan.
Afterwards, Ryozo Aonogi served everyone a pot of tea, and after everyone finished drinking, he asked Ryoichi Aonogi, "I'm here to ask you again, are you really unwilling to inherit the Aono style?"
"I only like fishing, not being a tea maker," Aonoki Ryoichi said.
Ryozo Aonogi said, "Okay, Ms. Hanazaki, sign the document for him."
"Grandmaster, aren't you thinking about it?" Hanazaki Yoshiko asked worriedly.
"There is nothing to consider. The Ayano-ryu's property is only reserved for the heirs of the Ayano-ryu. Since he likes fishing, let him support himself by fishing." Aoki Ryozo shouted, "Give it to him."
"Yes." Yoshiko Hanazaki put a document in front of Ryoichi Aonogi, "Master, think again."
"Thank you for your care over the years, Ms. Hanazaki." Ryoichi Aonogi said, then looked at the document and signed his name.
"Master." Yoshiko Hanazaki cried.
Aonoki Ryoichi said: "Then I'll go back and pack my things first." After speaking, he saluted and left.
Ryozo Aonoki shouted, "Sonoko."
"Yes, teacher." Yuanzi replied.
Ryozo Aonoki asked: "There is one thing, I want to ask you, is that okay?"
"I understand, teacher." Yuanzi said, "Brother Mu Liangyi and I have known each other since we were young. I will definitely ask my father to help. Don't worry."
"Then please." Aonoki Ryozo saluted.
"I dare not take it." Yuanzi replied.
After that, Ryozo Aonoki asked Yagura Moruo to stay, and the others left. ...
After leaving the tea room, Mao Li's expression changed immediately, and he sat down on the corridor and rubbed his legs.
"My gosh, this leg is not mine at all."
"You lack exercise." Lan smiled, and then helped Mouri up with Yamazaki.
"I can't do it either." Yuanzi threw herself into Mei Daizi's arms.
Mei Daizi walked with Yuanzi on her shoulders and asked with a smile, "Yuanzi, haven't you learned the tea ceremony?"
Lan smiled and asked, "Exactly, why can't you sit still for two hours?"
Yuanzi said: "Didn't I just say that? Brother Mu Liangyi and I have known each other since we were young, which means I learned it when I was young."
"So that's how it is," Mei Daizi asked, "But you live in Tokyo and he lives in Shizuoka, so why did you ask him to be your teacher?"
"The tea ceremony is diplomacy. The patriarch who conveyed the heart-to-heart flow was a famous official at the end of the Edo period, a disciple of Yamaoka Tetsushu, one of the three boats at the end of the Edo period. Yamaoka Tetsushu once served as the official counselor of the Shizuoka feudal power, the counselor of Ibaraki Prefecture, and the magistrate of Imari County, that is, The current governor of Saga Prefecture, later served as an attendant of Emperor Meiji, Miyauchi Daijo, and Miyauchi Shaosuke. Needless to say, the personal connections he formed. The original intention of Yunchuan Shindoryu was to serve this famous minister Diplomacy, it’s just that he left too early. He was only 53 years old when he died. Yun Chuan Xin Dao Liu did not develop through him, and then gradually faded away, and gradually declined in modern times.” Yuanzi laughed, “But Although he was in decline, my father said that he could still be a stepping stone, and at that time Qing Yeliu needed money to help his teacher to become a master, and the two hit it off, so I became a victim."
Lan asked, "Does it cost money too? Didn't the TV say it's free?"
"Certification is free, but there must be a work. Those judges all have high standards. Want to pass the test with tea bought in the supermarket and a tea bowl bought in the supermarket? It's almost like a dream." Yuanzi said, "There must be a unique A tea room, a set of good tea sets, some good tea leaves, this is the hope, and it all costs money."
"That's right," Molly said.
Conan asked: "Then this tea room was built with your family's help?"
Yuanzi said: "What kind of tea room, this house was built with the help of our family."
Conan asked, "What's the matter with the spell on it?"
Yuanzi said: "I heard that it was posted after the death of the teacher's wife. It seems that it is because of the legend of the giant python."
Mei Daizi asked: "Is there really a giant python?"
"How do I know that?" Yuanzi smiled, "Why don't you go down and have a look."
Mei Daizi said: "Alright, I just brought a swimsuit."
Lan Chakou talked, "By the way, Yuanzi, the father and son were breaking off the relationship just now, right? Is this the way they all want to be?"
Yuanzi said: "How should I put it, the industry of the school belongs to the school, and the contemporary masters are just managers, but it is normal to use the industry of the school for personal gain, just like the president of a company who arranges his son to be a minister, like a teacher. It is really rare for a son to go out of the house, maybe he is annoyed that he refuses to inherit the school, and he is acting out of anger."
"Property of the school?" Mori laughed, "No wonder the two of them gave away those precious things. As long as you become a master, the things will still be yours in the future. Now it is obvious that Mr. Yagura Morio is the new master in the future." .”
Yuanzi said: "It is the master. Only after passing the certification can one become a master."
Mei Daizi said: "What, I don't think the tea made by my brother is as good as it is."
Maori said: "Well, speaking of it, the tea that Yamazaki made last time was indeed more delicious than the one just now."
Yamazaki said with a smile: "It's incomparable, Uncle, the tea leaves from last time are excellent, this one is just a good tea. Uncle, you should look forward to the afternoon tea, I think he will use the excellent tea leaves he picked and made as the curtain call tea Entertain us and show you the demeanor of a tea ceremony master."
"It's really exciting." Lan said with a smile.
Maori asked: "By the way, this ceremony is just drinking a pot of tea like this? There is no such thing..." He made a gesture of drinking.
Yuanzi said with a smile: "This is only internal, there will be a reception outside, the teacher is a famous person in Shizuoka County."
"It's really exciting." Maori laughed.
"By the way, Yuanzi, how do you feel now?" Mei Daizi said, "I let go."
Sonoko tried, "Okay, let go."
"Dad, what about you?" Lan asked.
"It's almost there, I'll go by myself," Maori said.
Mei Daizi said: "Brother, let's go and see what there is to eat in this mountain forest."
"Then let's go first, uncle." Yamazaki said. ...
At noon, by the stream in the mountains.
Mei Daizi and Yamazaki lit the fire, and the other picked up the prey, pheasants, rabbits and snakes, and soon had lunch.
"By the way, brother." Mei Daizi shouted.
"What?" Yamazaki asked.
Mei Daizi smiled embarrassedly and said: "Father and mother said what a grand master is, but I forgot to remember, do you know? Can you tell me, or when we go back, when we talk about this matter, my mother asks I still remember, I can't answer, I will definitely be knocked."
"That's right." Yamazaki said, "Grandmaster, it is actually very difficult to become a master. Most of the current masters are just playing tricks."
"A trick?" Mei Daizi read.
"Selflessness is actually the standard of a master. Many times, when a person focuses on something, he will forget the passage of time, but when he can let others watch or hear himself doing something, he will forget himself for a period of time, forget With the passage of time, this person is a master in a certain way." Yamazaki said, "One person makes another person forget himself for a period of time, in other words, for a period of time, this person dominates another person, so this A person who is like the master of the family is called a master."
"So that's the case." Mei Daizi said.
"This kind of thing is easy to say, but difficult to do, so everyone thought of a lot of ways to help." Yamazaki said, "For example, the tea ceremony, the selected scenery is to make people relax as soon as they come. Still in the mood for tea."
"Not bad, not bad." Mei Daizi said.
Yamazaki said with a smile: "Good tea leaves will have a tea fragrance, and few people would like to smell the smell. A good tea set will attract people's attention. I look forward to drinking the tea served with this tea set. A tea set that makes people look unappetizing , no one will want to drink the contents."
"That's true." Mei Daizi said, "By the way, that tea mortar is famous for its pounding sound, and this melodious sound is a better helper, so that Grandmaster is so happy."
"Yes, it is difficult to attract people's ears with the sound of burning charcoal, boiling water, and pouring water. Some people will sing a poem at the beginning, but the pounding sound of the tea mortar is the best choice for tea people." Yamazaki said "After the heart relaxes, you can hear the pleasant sound of tea making, smell the fragrance of tea that penetrates your heart and lungs, and see the pleasing tea set. Pay attention to the movements of the tea maker, and in this way, you will often be attracted by the flowing movements of the tea maker, forgetting the boring waiting for a while, and only realize that a long time has passed when the tea maker serves the tea. In this way, This tea master has accomplished something ecstasy through the tea ceremony on his own initiative and purpose, and he can be called the master of the tea ceremony.”
"Uh," Mei Daizi blinked, "If you say that, there will be a flood of masters. Like movies, those producers are all masters."
Yamazaki said with a smile: "Oscar winners can be regarded as the masters of the film industry."
"They are indeed worthy of being masters, but there are quite a few of them." Mei Daizi laughed.
"It's less than those who didn't win the award." Yamazaki said.
"That's true." Mei Daizi said.
At this time, the two finished their lunch, so they packed up their things and went back to the Aono house, and then were brought to the yard by Yoshiko Hanazaki, the four Mori, Morio Yagura, Masako Mimura, and Ryoichi Aonogi were drinking tea and greeted them Finally, the two changed into full-body swimsuits and went diving in the pond, only to find that there was nothing in the pond except some fish, shrimp and shellfish.
After Yamazaki and Mei Daizi came up from the water, Sonoko informed them that the time was almost up and told them to hurry up. So the two went to wash themselves, changed their clothes and went to the tea room with Mo Li and others. ...
The tea room is outside.
Seeing that Yoshiko Hanazaki called the door several times but no one answered, and the door was also locked, Conan asked, "Is there a back door here?"
"There is one at the back." Hanazaki Yoshiko said, and then led everyone there, only to find that the back door was also locked.
Yuanzi glanced at Mao Li, and asked Mei Daizi and Lan, "Is something wrong?"
"Very likely." Mei Daizi smiled.
"Hey, Mr. Mu Liangyi, shall we knock the door open first?" Mao Li asked.
"Alright." Aoki Ryo thought for a while and said.
Yamazaki said: "Wait, uncle, I think it's better to go through the window. If something happens, this is a secret room. It's better not to go through the door."
"The secret room? Are you talking about the murder in the secret room?" Masako Mimura asked in surprise, "You, are you the Kogoro Mori who can make incidents happen wherever you go?"
"What!" Yagura Moruo, Aonogi Ryoichi, and Hanazaki Yoshiko were all taken aback.
"I..." Mao Li didn't know how to answer for a while, this was all a rumor spread by someone, it was too disgusting.
"Lan, your father has been upgraded." Mei Daizi laughed.
"That's right, it turned out that it happened when we met." Sonoko smiled.
"..." Lan raised her triangular eyes speechlessly.
"Cough!" Maori said, "Okay, let's go in through the window." Then he pointed to a wooden window with several wooden fences.
"I'll do it." Mei Daizi swept away the wooden fence with one kick, then patted the wooden window to feel the thickness, then punched through the wooden window and tore it down, allowing everyone to see the situation inside , saw Ryozo Aonoki hanging from the beam.
"Father!" "Teacher!" Aoki Ryoichi and others shouted loudly.
Mei Daizi said: "The rope is no longer shaking, he died long ago, call the police."
"No." Yagura Moruo said and wanted to break the door, but was stopped by Yamazaki.
Mao Li shouted: "No one can go in until the police come."...
