Chapter 258: Drinking Seawater
Of course, in Tang Qi's opinion, it can support him to survive.
Certainly not what to drink seawater.
Aren't there a lot of fish on the sea?
Eating raw fish meat and drinking fish blood is also one of the ways.
In addition, if you catch up with the stormy weather, you can also drink rainwater.
These are the conditions for survival.
"I see!"
After Tang Qi's explanation, everyone understood the truth.
It seems that no matter what the circumstances, you can't drink seawater!
Drinking seawater not only does not save lives, but can speed up the passage of life.
"There's a problem with that."
Huo Quzhi suddenly remembered something.
Tang Qi looked at him curiously: "What's the matter?" ”
"Oh, that's ......"
Huo Quzhi explained: "This time we came out and brought a full 80,000 sailors, just to install them, it occupies most of the space of the warship, and the amount of fresh water that can be carried is limited. ”
"Moreover, Hou Ye also asked us to bring a lot of fruits and vegetables, in order to ensure the freshness of vegetables and fruits, he also brought ice cubes and other things, so that the amount of fresh water that was really brought was even less."
"Nowadays, the amount of fresh water consumed every day is a very terrifying amount, even if it receives a lot of rainwater, it is not enough."
"Since fresh water is so important, then in the next period of time, we must ration fresh water, and the amount that used to be one day must now be used for at least seven to eight days."
“……”
When Huo Quai's words came out, the faces of many people present became bitter.
You know, they don't have much fresh water in a day.
There's no way to drink it at all.
Not even to mention drinking, there was no way to even use fresh water for bathing, and the height of the warship from the sea was too high, and the surrounding area was so smooth that it was impossible to climb up.
As a result, they simply couldn't go into the sea to bathe.
As a result, the body is smelly during this time.
But under such harsh conditions, it is necessary to control the amount of fresh water?
It was even worse than killing them!
"Master Hou, what do you think?"
For everyone's complaints, Huo Qubing didn't see it, but just for the sake of winning a big victory in this conquest of the pirates, he couldn't care so much.
Tang Qi waved his hand confidently and said, "Who said we are short of fresh water?" It's all fresh water! ”
"Huh?"
As soon as Tang Qi said this, all the people around him were dumbfounded.
Where does the fresh water come from?
Surrounded by the vast sea.
It's all seawater!
"Master Hou, there is no fresh water around us, it is all seawater...... You just said that sea water can't be drunk. ”
Su Jian couldn't help but say.
Even Tang Qing and Tang Niu couldn't care about seasickness, staring at Tang Qi with strange eyes.
Tang Qi laughed: "Seawater, naturally, cannot be drunk directly, but if it can be specially treated, then it will become fresh water that can be drunk by people." ”
"What? Can seawater still be turned into fresh water? ”
This novel theory has made countless people dumbfounded.
Including those patrolling soldiers, they also subconsciously stopped, wanting to hear Tang Qi's next theory.
Tang Qi smiled slightly.
If he had done it before, he would definitely not have been able to make drinking water out of thin air.
It's just that before going to sea, I was lucky enough to exchange a freshwater converter from the system.
In this way, the problem of fresh water no longer exists.
While speaking, Tang Qi asked some soldiers to get some seawater out of the sea.
At the same time, he led everyone directly into the cabin.
After entering the cabin, many people saw that in the cabin, there was indeed a strange machine, and after Tang Qi pressed the button, the machine trembled and made a loud rumbling sound.
"What is this?"
Many people have visited printing houses and paper mills, and they have also seen some machinery.
It's just that the freshwater transformer that Tang Qi is now placing in front of everyone is unheard of and unseen.
"You'll find out soon."
Tang Qi smiled, but he didn't explain much.
Instead, he picked up a basin of seawater from his side and fell directly into the freshwater converter.
This freshwater converter, when redeemed from the system, there is also a supporting manual, so even if it is the first time to use it, Tang Qi also knows the principle.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, Tang Qi poured seawater into the freshwater converter.
All of a sudden, the speed of the machine became faster, and a large amount of water vapor came out of the chimney above the machine.
And in one of the pipes underneath, the gurgling water flowed out like a small stream, into the wooden basin that had been prepared for a long time.
"This ...... Isn't this still seawater? ”
Huo Quzhi and the others are all monks who are confused.
Seawater and freshwater look almost identical from the outside.
The only difference may be that it has become much clearer.
But it's still undrinkable seawater, isn't it?
It makes no sense for Andinghou to make such a big move!
Even if everyone was chattering, Tang Qi didn't care about it, he still watched the freshwater converter.
There are about two basins of seawater just poured in, but only about half a basin of fresh water is converted.
The number has plummeted.
However, it is also within acceptable limits.
After all, seawater is full of various mineral elements, which need to be removed before it can meet the drinking standards of fresh water.
After all, it is a freshwater converter rewarded by the system.
The performance is very good, more than twice as good as the freshwater converter of later generations.
Tang Qi only needs to pour the seawater into it, nothing else, this machine can handle everything in order, he only needs to collect the fresh water that emerges from the machine.
"Master Hou, why haven't you spoken for a long time?"
Seeing that Tang Qi had been silent, everyone was dumbfounded.
They can be said to be extremely puzzled about this fresh water converter.
I don't understand how this thing works!
If you want to figure it out, you can only wait for Tang Qi's explanation.
There is also the seawater contained in the wooden basin below.
It's not useful at all......
Huo Quzhi picked up the war knife in his hand, intending to reach into the sea water and play with it.
As a result, Tang Qi directly stopped him angrily: "Huo Quai, are you crazy?" It's all fresh water, and I can't afford to waste it like this. ”
"Your war knife is used to cut people, and it has reached into drinking water, so who dares to drink it?"
"What? Is this drinking water? Fresh water? ”
Huo Quzhi was dumbfounded all of a sudden.
