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

It was like being hit by old ice, the chill going straight into the bones.

Fortunately, Wei Qing's endurance was amazing. Even if he was splashed, he gritted his teeth and stood in front of Liu Che without moving an inch.

After a minute or two, the chemical reaction in the tank finally calmed down a bit.

Tang Qi picked up the pottery basin on the ground and put it into the water tank.

This pottery basin is relatively thin and lightweight, and floats directly on the water.

Then, Tang Qi scooped water from another vat and poured it into the pottery basin.

In the shocked eyes of Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu, white mist began to rise from the pottery basin.

Gradually, the water in the pottery basin began to freeze.

Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu's eyes widened.

It actually...really froze!

"This is definitely a magical method, absolutely!"

Liu Che murmured to himself, his eyes shining with excitement.

There really are gods in this world, and there are also gods’ methods!

There is hope for eternal life!

When Tang Qi heard Liu Che's words, he turned his head and looked at Liu Che and said: "What kind of magical method? This is chemistry and has nothing to do with gods!"

When saltpeter dissolves in water, it absorbs a large amount of heat, causing the surrounding temperature to drop suddenly, so the water in the pottery basin condenses into ice.

This belongs entirely to junior high school chemistry knowledge.

Any student in the third grade of junior high school can complete this operation, and it has nothing to do with gods.

However, Liu Che said firmly: "This chemistry must be one of the methods of gods. Mr. Tang, there are no outsiders here, so you don't have to deceive me! I would like to ask, can you gain immortality by practicing chemistry...?"

Tang Qi scratched his head, feeling that these words sounded familiar.

It seems that Sun Wukong also asked the same question when he paid homage to Patriarch Bodhi.

This guy must have watched too much "Journey to the West".

"It's a bit difficult to live forever by relying on chemistry. If you really want to live forever, you have to practice biology!"

Tang Qi said to Liu Che in a teasing tone.

But Liu Che believed it and said excitedly: "Then, Mr. Tang, how can you practice this biology...? If I can really gain immortality, I will definitely make you a king with a different surname, and be my national teacher in the Han Dynasty, and enjoy the worship of the world.

!”

Tang Qi rolled his eyes, feeling that Liu Che was really seriously ill.

Hopeless!

"Biology is a vast and complex subject. Before you learn it, you should work hard on the island first!"

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

Liu Che couldn't help but drooled again.

"Okay, okay, Mr. Tang please go first!"

Liu Che made an invitation gesture with a very respectful attitude.

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

Tang Qi didn't show any pretense, he just picked up the freshly made basin of ice, wandered out of the saltpeter cave, then walked into the ice room, stored the ice, and took out three frozen pig knuckles.

When Liu Che saw it, he praised again: "Mr. Tang is really amazing at being able to use ice to store pork in hot weather!"

Tang Qi was already immune to Liu Che's praise, so he led Pig Knuckle and Liu Che directly out of the cave and to the stove.

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

Dongpo elbow is a stew.

Just simmering takes three hours.

Tang Qi defrosted the pork elbow first, then put it into the pot and added water until the pork elbow was covered.

After the fire comes to a boil, add chili peppers, peppercorns, spirits, etc., and then simmer over low heat.

Obviously we can’t have pork knuckles at lunch.

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 had on the island was golden egg fried rice.

Now after another meal, they still find it delicious.

Liu Che sighed while putting 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 swallow any other food!"

Tang Qi smiled and said: "There's nothing to be afraid of. The dishes I cook are easy to learn. You can watch me cook them a few more times. When you get back, you can cook and eat them yourself!"

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

Tang Qi rolled his eyes and said, "That's because your talent is too low. I guess your wife has already learned it, right?"

Wei Zifu chuckled and said: "I have only learned the basics. Compared with Mr. Tang, the taste of the dishes must be very different."

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

Wei Zifu's eyes suddenly lit up and he was overjoyed.

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

If you can really develop extraordinary cooking skills on this island, that would be a great thing.

When you return to the palace, you can use delicious food to tie up His Majesty's heart and stabilize your position as Queen.

Thinking of this, Wei Zifu immediately stood up and saluted Tang Qi: "If this is the case, then I will thank Mr. Tang in advance!"

Tang Qi smiled and said: "What is there to be grateful for? Those ingredients and seasonings are not valuable. You should sit down and have a good meal. There is no need to be so polite!"

"good!"

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

At this time, Wei Qing suddenly asked Tang Qi: "Mr. Tang, can you really see the future?"

The future mentioned by Wei Qing is history to Tang Qi.

He smiled slightly and said, "Just think that I can see it. What's wrong?"

Wei Qing put down his bowl and chopsticks and said solemnly: "I would like to ask Mr. Tang, will the Xiongnu be destroyed in the future?"

As a man who became a general by conquering the Xiongnu, Wei Qing was naturally more concerned about the Xiongnu's problems.

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

He racked his brains and thought for a long time, and then said: "In the future, the Huns will never be eliminated!"

The Xiongnu were a mixture of multiple ethnic groups. In later generations, they gradually separated. Some of them went to the grasslands and became Mongols. 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 just speculations by historians.

But in general, they were indeed not wiped out, only the name Huns gradually disappeared.
