It is Biluochun. For details, see the following introduction. Dongting Mountain in Taihu Lake, Jiangsu Province produces a famous tea called "Biluochun" with "copper wire strips, spiral shape, whole body hair, and a frightening fragrance". According to "Liu Nan Essays" written by Wang Yankui of the Qing Dynasty: "Wild tea is produced on the stone wall of Biluofeng in Dongting Mountain, and no difference has been seen in the beginning. In a certain year of Kangxi, the tea was picked according to the season, and the basket was full. Because it was placed in the arms, the tea became hot and the fragrance suddenly The people who picked it called it fragrant, which was also called frightening people in the Wu folk dialect. Later, the locals picked tea and kept it in their arms. The one produced by Zhu Yuanzheng's family was extremely valuable. Driving by the Taihu Lake, the tea was renamed Biluochun. Speaking of the origin of Biluochun tea, there are two touching folk legends. First, it is said that a long time ago, there lived a beautiful, hard-working and kind-hearted girl named Biluo on the West Dongting Mountain. The girl likes to sing, and she has a clear and smooth voice. When she sings, her voice flows like a stream of sweet water, making everyone very happy. This song moved a young man named Axiang from Dongting Mountain across the water. This Axiang is tall and strong, has strong martial arts skills, makes a living by fishing, is upright, and is willing to help others. People in a radius of dozens of miles praise him and love him. Biluo often builds nets and sings by the lake, while Axiang always paddles a boat and fishes in the lake. Although the two have never had the opportunity to express their love, they are deeply in love with each other in their hearts. The villagers also like these two people very much because They bring happiness and joy to the folks. One year in the early spring, disaster suddenly struck Taihu Lake. A ferocious and cruel dragon appeared in the lake, causing violent storms and causing mischief. He also threatened to ask Miss Biluo to be his "Mrs. Taihu", causing the people of Taihu to have no peace day and night. Ah Yang is determined to fight the evil dragon to the death, protect the lives of the people in Dongting Mountain, and also protect the beloved girl Biluo from disaster! One moonless night, Axiang picked up a big harpoon and sneaked quietly to the West Dongting Mountain. He saw the evil dragon resting proudly after doing evil. Axiang took advantage of it and rushed forward, using all his strength. He pierced the dragon's back with the fishing spear in his hand. The evil dragon was seriously injured. After struggling for a while, it opened its bloody mouth and rushed towards Axiang with more ferocity. Axiang raised his harpoon and fought bravely, and a fierce battle began. He killed from night to dawn, and from dawn to night. The sky was dark, the earth was shaking, and the mountains were shaking. There were stains of blood on the mountains and lakes, until the battle It took seven days and seven nights before Xiang's harpoon penetrated the dragon's throat. At this time, both parties were seriously injured and exhausted. The dragon's claws could no longer be picked up, and Xiang's harpoon could not lift it either. , fell into a pool of blood and fainted. The villagers brought Axiang back with deep gratitude and reverence. Miss Biluo was heartbroken when she saw it. In order to repay Axiang for saving her life, she asked to carry Axiang into her home and let her carry him in person. care. Miss Biluo tried her best to treat him. She stayed by his bedside day and night and took good care of him. When A Xiang was in pain, she gently sang the most beautiful songs. However, Axiang's injury continued to worsen day by day. Axiang felt great comfort knowing that Miss Biluo was with him day and night. He had so much to say to the girl, but his weak body made him speechless. He could only stare at the girl with infinite gratitude. Ms. Biluo was even more anxious. With the help of the villagers, she visited the doctor and sought medicine, but it still didn't work. One day, the girl looked for herbs and came to the place where Xiang fought with the dragon. Suddenly she saw a small tea tree growing very well. She thought: This is the testimony of Xiang's fight with the dragon. She should cultivate it well so that it can be used in the future. People know how Axiang sacrificed his blood for the people to live a stable and happy life! Then I added some fertilizer to the small tea tree and cultivated some soil. From then on, she ran to take a look every day. Just after the Waking of Insects, many buds grew on the tree. It was full of spring and very cute. In the cold temperature, Biluo was afraid that the buds would freeze, so she held the buds with her small mouth. Do this every morning. Around Qingming Festival, the buds begin to bloom, and the first and second young leaves stretch out. The girl looked at these tender green buds and leaves and said to herself: "This tea tree is moistened by Ah Xiang's blood, and it was held in my singing mouth. Why not pick some and give it to Ah Xiang to drink, and also express my feelings. "My thoughts." So he picked a handful of young shoots and held them in his arms. After returning home, he made a cup of tea and served it to A Xiang. Strangely enough, as soon as the boiling water was poured into the tea, there was a pure and fragrant aroma that refreshed the heart and spleen. Axiang became energetic after smelling it and drank up the tea soup in one breath. The fragrant and hot vegetable soup seemed to penetrate every pore on his body, making him feel indescribably comfortable. He tried to raise his hands and stretch his legs, and said in surprise: "How strange! I can almost sit up! What kind of magic medicine is this? It's really more effective than the elixir."
" Seeing this scene, the girl was so happy that she burst into tears. She didn't have time to pick up the bamboo basket to hold the container, so she rushed to the tea tree, picked another handful of buds in one breath, put it in her chest, used her own body temperature to make the buds and leaves wilted, and took it. He took it out at home and rubbed it gently, and then gave it to Axiang to drink. After several days of this, Axiang finally got better day by day. He took the girl's hand and expressed his love and gratitude to the girl. She shyly expressed her love for Axiang. Axiang was saved, and the heavy stone in the girl's heart fell to the ground. Just when the two were intoxicated in the happiness of love, Biluo's body could no longer support it. , with no color on her haggard face, one day she fell into A Xiang's arms, with a sweet and happy smile, and could no longer open her eyes. A Xiang was so sad that he buried the girl next to the tea tree in Dongting Mountain. From then on, he worked hard to propagate tea trees and collect famous tea. "Good tea has always been like a beautiful woman." In order to commemorate the girl Biluo, people named this precious tea "Biluochun". The second reason is that a long time ago, Dongting Mo. There was a strange aroma on Mount Lifeng. People mistakenly thought it was caused by goblins and did not dare to go up the mountain. One day, a brave, brave and stubborn girl went to cut firewood in Molifeng. When she was halfway up the mountain, she smelled something. She was also surprised by the fragrance, so she looked towards the top of the mountain. It seemed that she didn't find any strange monsters. Driven by curiosity, she took the risk and climbed up the cliff to the top of the mountain. There were several green tea trees, and bursts of fragrance seemed to come from the trees. She approached the tea trees, picked some buds and leaves, put them in the bushes, and went down the mountain. Unexpectedly, the tea leaves in her arms emanated all the way. The fragrance was rich, and the farther she walked, the stronger the fragrance became. This strange fragrance made her feel a little dizzy. When she got home, the girl felt tired and thirsty, so she took out the tea leaves from her arms, but she felt that the room was filled with fragrance. The girl shouted, " It's so scary, so scary! ", pick up some buds and leaves, make a cup and drink it. Put the bowl to your mouth, the fragrance will refresh your heart and spleen, swallow it in one mouthful, and your mouth will be full of fragrance; swallow it in two mouthfuls, your throat will be moisturized and your head will be clear; swallow it in three mouthfuls, and your fatigue will disappear. The girl was overjoyed, Determined to move the precious tea tree home and plant it. The next day, she took a hoe, dug up the small tea tree, and transplanted it at the foot of the stone mountain in West Dongting. After a few years, the tea tree grew strong and luxuriant. The aroma attracted neighbors from far and near. The girl made tea from the buds and leaves she picked and served them to everyone. They saw that the buds and leaves were covered with hairs and had a rich and refreshing fragrance. Everyone was full of praises and asked what kind of tea this was. He replied casually: "It's frightening. "Since then, fragrant tea has been gradually introduced and propagated throughout the entire Xishan and Dongshan mountains of Dongting. The harvesting and processing technology has also gradually improved, gradually forming the current "one tender and three delicacies" (i.e. tender buds and leaves, color, fragrance and fresh taste). ) characteristics, Biluochun tea is green and clear, shaped like a spiral, and covered with fur.
