Chapter Thirty-Eight: I'm Mistaken

After being splashed by the water droplets sprayed out of the tank, Wei Qing only had one feeling, cold, too cold!

It's like the old ice has hit, and the chill goes straight into the bones.

Fortunately, Wei Qing's endurance is amazing, even if he was splashed, he still gritted his teeth and blocked Liu Che in front of him, not moving an inch.

After a minute or two, the chemistry in the vat finally calmed down a bit.

Tang Qi picked up the clay pot on the ground and put it in the water tank.

This clay pot is thinner and lighter, floating directly on the water.

Then, Tang Qi scooped water from another jar and poured it into the clay pot.

Under the shocked gazes of Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu, a white mist began to rise inside the clay pot.

Gradually, the water in the pot began to freeze.

Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu's eyes were all round.

Actually...... It's really frozen!

"This is definitely a fairy trick, absolutely!"

Liu Che muttered to himself, his eyes showing an extremely excited light.

There are really immortals in this world, and there are immortal means!

Immortality is expected!

Tang Qi heard Liu Che's words, turned his head to look at Liu Che and said, "What kind of immortal means, this is chemistry, and it has nothing to do with immortals!" ”

When saltpeter dissolves in water, it absorbs a lot of heat, causing the surrounding temperature to drop suddenly, so that the water in the pot condenses into ice.

This is all about junior high school chemistry.

Any junior high school student can complete this operation, and he has nothing to do with the gods.

However, Liu Che said firmly: "This chemistry must also be a kind of immortal means, Mr. Tang, there are no outsiders here, you don't have to deceive me!" I would like to ask, ...... cultivating chemistry Can I live forever? ”

Tang Qi scratched his head, always feeling that this was a little familiar.

It seems that when Sun Wukong apprenticed to Bodhi Ancestor, he also asked so.

This must have been too much of "Journey to the West".

"It's a bit difficult to live forever by chemistry, if you really want to live forever, you have to cultivate biology!"

Tang Qi said to Liu Che in a mocking tone.

Liu Che believed it and said excitedly: "Then may I ask Mr. Tang, this biology ...... How to cultivate? If I can really get immortality, I will definitely make you the king with a different surname, the national teacher of my Han Dynasty, and enjoy the worship of the people of the world! ”

Tang Qi rolled his eyes, only to feel that Liu Che was really sick.

It's hopeless!

"Biology is a vast and complex subject, so you can't learn it yet, so let's work the island first!"

Tang Qi said perfunctorily, and then continued: "Now that I have finished the demonstration of saltpeter ice making, let's go out, I will make you a Dongpo elbow to eat later!" ”

Liu Che drooled angrily.

"Okay, Mr. Tang first, please!"

Liu Che made a gesture of invitation, and his attitude was very respectful.

After all, now that the identity of the immortal has been confirmed, it is natural to be polite to the immortal.

Tang Qi was not hypocritical, he directly picked up a pot of ice that had just been made, walked out of the saltpeter cave leisurely, and then walked into the ice room, stored the ice, and took out three frozen pork knuckles.

When Liu Che saw it, he was amazed again: "Mr. Tang is really amazing to be able to store pork with cold ice in hot weather!" ”

Tang Qi was already immune to Liu Che's praise, and went straight out of the cave with Pork Knuckle and Liu Che and came to the stove.

Making Dongpo elbows is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task.

Dongpo elbow belongs to stew.

It takes three hours just to simmer.

Tang Qi thawed the elbow first, then put it in the pot and added water until it didn't reach the pork knuckle.

After the fire is boiling, add chili peppers, peppercorns, spirits, etc., and simmer over low heat.

Obviously, I couldn't eat pork knuckle at noon.

Tang Qi used another pot to make a pot of golden egg fried rice for lunch.

The first meal Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu ate on the island was golden egg fried rice.

Now they eat it again, and they still find it delicious.

Liu Che sighed while pulling rice into his mouth: "Mr. Tang's cooking skills have surpassed all the chefs in the world, I'm really afraid that after I return to Chang'an, I won't be able to eat other meals!" ”

Tang Qi smiled: "There's nothing to be afraid of, these dishes I make are very easy to learn, you can watch me cook a few more times, and when you go back, you can cook and eat by yourself!" ”

Liu Che smiled bitterly: "Mr. Tang, you overestimate me too much, I have watched the process of making egg fried rice twice, but I still haven't learned it!" ”

Tang Qi rolled his eyes and said, "That's because your talent is too low, I guess your daughter-in-law has already learned it, right?" ”

Wei Zifu chuckled: "I have only learned the skin, and the taste of the product is definitely very different from that of Mr. Tang." ”

Tang Qi waved his hand and said: "That's okay, you can practice more in the future, you can use the ingredients and seasonings here as you like!" ”

Wei Zifu's eyes suddenly lit up, and his heart was overjoyed.

Although Wei Zifu has now become the queen, there are still some concubines in the harem who can compete with Wei Zifu for favor.

It would be a great thing to be able to practice otherworldly cooking on this island.

When you return to the palace, you can use delicious food to tie your majesty's heart and stabilize your status as the queen.

Thinking of this, Wei Zifu immediately got up and saluted Tang Qi and said, "If that's the case, then I will thank Mr. Tang in advance!" ”

Tang Qi smiled: "What is there to thank for, those ingredients and seasonings are not valuable, you can quickly sit down and eat well, you don't have to be so polite!" ”

"Good!"

Wei Zifu agreed, sat down and continued to eat, but he couldn't hide the joy on his face.

At this time, Wei Qing suddenly opened his mouth and asked Tang Qi, "Mr. Tang, can you really see the future?" ”

The future that Wei Qing said is, for Tang Qi, history.

He smiled and said, "You just think I can see it, what's wrong?" ”

Wei Qing put down the dishes and chopsticks and said solemnly: "I want to ask Mr. Tang, will the Huns be destroyed in the future?" ”

As a person who became a general by conquest of the Xiongnu, Wei Qing naturally paid more attention to the problems of the Xiongnu.

It's a pity that Tang Qi is really not very familiar with this history.

He racked his brains and thought for a while before he said: "In the future, the Huns have never been eliminated!" ”

The Xiongnu were a mixture of several ethnic groups, and in later generations they gradually separated, some of them went to the steppe and became Mongols, and some of them moved westward to Europe and integrated into countries such as Turkey and Hungary.

Of course, since the Huns did not have their own written language, these are only speculations by historians.

But in general, they really were not exterminated, only the name Huns gradually disappeared.

Wei Qing said in disbelief: "I have been a Han for hundreds of years, how can I not even be able to destroy a single Huns?" Mr. Tang, you can't be mistaken, right? ”
