Qingfang attacked the people's path camellia

Jingshan has been a tea ceremony since ancient times, and Jingshan Temple is revered as the "Ancestral Garden of the Tea Ceremony". Drinking mountain tea today, there is Zen in the tea, the mountain is seen in the tea, the silence is ethereal, and the calm heart is born.

　　At the end of April, the branches of mulberries begin to blush, and loquats remain green. Passing through the ancient town of Anxi, there is dongwang zen temple, and there is no one in silence.

　　Sixty miles away from Anxi there is Jingshan Temple. Yu passed by jingshan temple ten years ago and had to drink jingshan tea. Nowadays, people know more about Longjing and don't know the path of camellia. Trail mountain tea is really good tea, sweet and original, and the price is more affordable than Longjing. Trail Mountain is a branch of Tianmu Mountain. The mountain has two paths, the east path leads to Yuhang City, and the west path leads to Lin'an City. Five miles up the east path, you will see the solemn Mujingshan Temple. From the temple to the summit, and five miles.

　　Although Jingshan is not a famous mountain, Jingshan Temple is a famous temple. Jingshan Temple was founded in Tang Dynasty, and the ancestor of the mountain was the Faqin Zen master. Zen master Faqin planted several tea trees by hand, collected them for the Buddha, and then spread to the mountains and mountains. Trail camellia "its flavor is fresh and fragrant, and it is specially produced. Cai Xiang, a scholar and tea expert at the Northern Song Dynasty Hanlin Academy, said that Jingshan tea was "Qingfang attacking people" ("Tea Record").

　　The trail mountain has been going on since ancient tea. When the monks of The Chuhnichi Temple introduced Chinese Zen Buddhism to Japan, they also introduced the tea ceremony of the temple, especially the tea fighting, tea ordering, tea ceremony, and tea feast of Jingshan Temple, to Japan. It can be said that the Japanese tea ceremony originated from the Chinese tea ceremony, and the Jingshan Temple tea ceremony is the direct source of the Japanese tea ceremony.

　　At that time, when Some Japanese monks returned to China, they also brought back the Jianzhan of Jingshan Temple. These jianzhan were successively circulated in the upper class of Japanese society, and were called "Tenmu Tea Bowls". In the Japanese tea ceremony, a set of procedures for ordering tea with Tenmoku tea bowls is also specially designed, called "Tenmoku Point". During the Southern Song Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty, no one knows how many Tianmu tea bowls flowed into Japan. However, there are three perfectly shaped Tianmu tea bowls, which are listed as "national treasures" by Japan and are highly cherished (Teng Jun's "The Influence of the Jingshan Temple Tea Ceremony on Japan").

　　Drinking mountain tea today, there is Zen in the tea, the mountain is seen in the tea, the silence is ethereal, and the calm heart is born. Drinking trail camellia, now people use glasses, do not use glazed dark jianzhan, because the tea of the Song people is different from today's people. During the Song Dynasty, tea was ordered, and the tea leaves were matcha. "If there is less tea and more soup, the cloud feet will be scattered; if there is less soup and more tea, the porridge noodles will be gathered." The ratio of tea to soup is strict, and the tea ordering technique is also exquisite, "first inject the soup to make it extremely even, and then add the injection ring to hit back." The soup cup can be stopped in four minutes, depending on its bright white face and no water marks. ”

　　At that time, ordering tea and fighting tea was better than the kung fu of ordering tea, and it was based on viewing rather than taste. If you don't see the water marks for a long time, you are superior; if the water marks appear first, they are negative. During the Song Dynasty, the famous Japanese monk Rongxi went to China to study Buddhism, recorded what he saw and heard about tea, brought it back to Japan, and later wrote a tea culture monograph "Drinking Tea and Nourishing Himself". It was also Japan's first tea book. The book records a large number of people in the Song Dynasty in making tea, drinking tea, and maintaining health. At that time, drinking tea included grinding the tea leaves, injecting hot water, blowing out the foam with the tea basket, and admiring the tea utensils, tasting the tea soup, and so on. These tea drinking teas have slowly changed and developed into the Japanese tea ceremony.

　　Last October, I visited Uji in Kyoto, and there is a bustling pedestrian street near Kodanin Temple, a world cultural heritage site. The street is lined with tea shops. Among them, there is a "three-star garden on the forest three into" this store, the façade is low-key, from a distance it is just an ordinary one. After entering, I carefully searched and learned that this shop is also an old shop that has been passed down for 500 years. The seventeenth generation of Tanaka's young descendants went to China for three years to learn Han culture and tea culture. He was in charge of the reception and used Chinese to explain to us the history of his tea. Surprisingly, he was very funny and spoke well.

　　Uji tea is very famous. There are three famous teas in Japan: Uji tea, Sayama tea, and Shizuoka tea. Among them, Shizuoka tea has the largest yield, and Uji tea has the best quality. In particular, Uji's "Gyokuro" and "Matcha" are the first in Japan. For hundreds of years, Kyoto's Uji matcha has become synonymous with the most exclusive matcha in All of Japan. Looking back in history, in the Kamakura period, Akie Ueto brought tea seeds from China and cultivated Japan's first tea tree in Uji.

　　Most Japanese tea people have heard of Jingshan Temple and revered it as the "Ancestral Garden of the Tea Ceremony". When they come to China, most of them have to go to Jingshan Temple for a walk. Deep mountain ancient temple, distant visitors to visit, there is no need for any polite words, the main guest sat, just drink tea. (Zhou Bannong)
