Next to the Chasheng Temple, it should be owned by the Zen people, and the "Yuquan Zhengong" should be drunk, although it is eighty years old, it is like a peach blossom. Li Bai believes that this is due to the effect of cactus tea to "rejuvenate the child and support life". The tea that Li Bai obtained from his nephew was as heavy as a fist and shaped like a hand, which should be the origin of the name "cactus tea". Li Bai's poems are the artistry of these contents.
It is not difficult to see from Li Bai's "preface" that his nephew Zhongfu is a good tea person. According to relevant historical records, Zhongfu was a monk of Yuquan Temple, commonly known as Li Ying, and Zhongfu was his legal name. He is proficient in Buddhism, and loves tea. Every year, on the occasion of the Qingming Dynasty, he instructed Shami to pick fresh leaves from outside the milk cave and make them into the shape of a cactus to offer to the pilgrims who came to the temple. Judging from Li Bai's "because of his opinions and wills, he also gave poems and asked for yu answers", the Monk Zhongfu was quite confident in the quality of cactus tea, and he made both tea and poems, and gave them to Li Bai to taste together, eager to get Li Bai's recognition and evaluation. It should be said that Li Bai did not disappoint him, a long preface, -^ the first five ancient, making cactus tea famous in the world. This is just as Li Bai called the later monk Dayin in the "Preface", knowing the cactus tea, the Zhongfu Zen Zi and the Qinglian resident Li Baiye. ”
After Li Bai's death, the Yuquan Temple was repeatedly burned by soldiers, and the cactus tea was also endangered. In the 1960s, the local tea department actively restored cactus tea according to Li Bai's poem and preface, and its products had palm-like shapes, silver and greenery, fresh and elegant aromas, and slightly green and clear soups, reproducing the style of Li Bai's famous teas of the Tang Dynasty.
