"What kind of water are you looking for? It's bitter and salty. After taking a sip, it's like someone's throat is locked...cough~"

The man spat on the ground a few times, his face turned pale.

Li Da looked at him angrily.

"You still blame me? Bah, you deserve it, who made you so anxious that you don't listen to others?"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Yu Tang carried the sugarcane and walked over.

"What's going on here?"

Before Li Da had time to say anything, the man grabbing the water spoke first.

"Boss, I don't know where Li Da found some strange water. It can salt people to death, so don't drink it."

"Hey, I said you boy, you deserve a beating, right? You dare to complain to the boss in front of me, believe it or not, I will cut you off?"

Li Da cursed and cursed, the man shrank his neck, made a face at Li Da, and hid behind Yu Tang.

Li was so arrogant that he rolled up his sleeves and made a gesture of slapping him, but Yu Tang opened his mouth in time.

The first website m.9biquge.

"Okay, let's stop making trouble, Li Da, what's the matter with the water?"

Li Da glared at the man, and handed Yu Tang a clean water bag.

"We found a small lake on a hillside five miles to the south, with a lot of water in it, but...but for some reason, the water in this lake is salty and undrinkable at all, but just in case One, we still brought some back.”

"Salty?"

Yu Tang had a vague guess in his heart.

She took the water bag and raised her head to take a sip...

"!!!"

Really flustered and bitter, Yu Tang couldn't help frowning.

However, she also affirmed her guess.

"What you found should be a saltwater lake."

"saltwater lake?"

Several people raised their hands and scratched their heads, all of them looked dazed, they had never heard of this name before.

After Li Da was at a loss, he felt a little lost again.

"The water in this saltwater lake can't be drunk, and I can't find any drinking water, what should I do..."

The people next to him also looked sad when they heard the words.

Yu Tang smiled faintly.

"Who said this water can't be drunk? It can be drunk, but it may take some effort."

Hearing this, everyone was stunned.

"Boss, are you kidding? This water is bitter and salty. After taking a sip, it makes people feel thirstier than before. How do you drink it?"

Yu Tang turned around and distributed the sugar cane to them.

"This water is very salty now, but it can be distilled and filtered, and it will become drinkable fresh water. Anyway, I can't explain it clearly to you in a few words. You should eat some sugar cane to quench your thirst. I will teach you how to make it later. .”

Everyone's attention was quickly drawn to the sugar cane.

Even Xiao An'er and Xiao Yan, who were hiding under the tree and whispering, and Nan Yin, who stood beside Xiao Yening with his arms folded, looked expressionless from beginning to end like a statue.

Like Princess Bei, they have never seen this thing before.

Xiao An'er ran over on her short legs, her grape eyes flickering.

"Sister Tang, what is this?"

Yu Tang cut off a piece himself, then carefully cut it into small pieces, then knelt down and handed it to him.

"This is a kind of fruit called sugar cane, try it."

Xiao An'er's mouth moved, Putao's eyes lit up for a moment, she turned around and stuffed a piece into Xiao Yan's mouth.

"It's so sweet and juicy, you can eat it too."

Yu Tang smiled and pinched his little milk fat.

"Eat as much as you like."

After the words fell, she stood up.

"This is a kind of wild fruit that Aunt Qing and I found not far away. We dug up all of them. It's not much, but it's sweet and juicy. I can handle it for a while. Share it with you. I'll go first." Get ready to make fresh water later."

Everyone was so thirsty that they wanted to drink blood, and they couldn't care less after hearing the words, they swarmed around to peel sugar cane.

Concubine Bei secretly drank water earlier, but now she is not thirsty at all. Instead of fighting with them, she followed Yu Tang to the last carriage.

I saw Yu Tang moved the big iron pot for cooking from the carriage, and then took some bamboo tubes and tarpaulins.

Princess Bei helped her connect things and said curiously:

"Tang'er, is the salt water really drinkable?"

Yu Tang nodded.

"Well, it's fine, don't worry."

Someone had already set up a fire before, so Yu Tang directly put the big iron pot on it, and then poured all the sea water that Li Da and his group brought into the iron pot.

When everyone caught a glimpse of her actions, they immediately surrounded her.

I saw Yu Tang put the wooden cylinder into the iron pot again, covered it with a tarpaulin, and then put a few stones in the center of the tarpaulin, making the middle of the tarpaulin slightly concave.

After doing all this, Yu Tang clapped his hands and stood up.

Everyone looked at her suspiciously.

"Boss, this... is this enough?"

"Can this really get rid of the salty taste in the water?"

"Why do I feel a little unreliable--the head of the family, why are you beating me?"

Li Da slapped the man and stared at him.

"Dare to question the boss, do you want to die?"

The man shook his head again and again, not daring to say anything.

Yu Tang looked at them and smiled gently.

"This is a method I learned in a wild diary before. When the water is boiled, mist and water droplets will be produced in an airtight environment. These water droplets condensed at high temperatures are cleaner than well water. .”

When everyone heard the words, they half-understood, and all stared at the big iron pot.

Yu Tang no longer explained too much.

Soon, there was a sound of gurgling, and the water boiled.

Yu Tang carefully lifted a corner of the tarpaulin, everyone looked over curiously, and saw that the bottom of the tarpaulin was indeed covered with drops of water.

One of them couldn't hold back his curiosity, stretched out his hand to scrape off the water beads, and then put his finger in his mouth.

Everyone looked at him curiously.

The man frowned.

"Boss, it's still very salty."

"Ugh!"

Everyone sighed as their tense shoulders suddenly collapsed upon hearing the sound.

"Let me just say, salty water, how can it become unsalty..."

Yu Tang was taken aback.

Should not be ah.

Could it be that she didn't get it right?

She dipped a little bit of water, and licked it lightly with the tip of her tongue...

Well, although there is still a little bit of saltiness, it does not affect thirst quenching at all.

She scanned the man from the beginning to the end with her eyes, and suddenly felt blessed for a moment.

She smiled slightly.

"Then what...you say salty, maybe it's because your fingers are not clean, after all, sweat is also salty."

Hearing this, the man was taken aback for a moment, he hurried to the side, picked a leaf and came back.

Blowing on the dust, he scraped a few beads of water off the oilcloth.

Everyone held their breath involuntarily and looked at him nervously.

"How about it?"

The man clicked his mouth twice, and then his face turned red.

"Okay... it seems that it is not salty anymore."

Everyone sighed, Li Da kicked him on the butt, kicked him away, and looked at Yu Tang with admiration.

"Boss, you are too powerful. I, Li Da, have never convinced anyone in my life. You are the first."

Yu Tang covered the oilcloth back.

"This method works, but it takes a lot of water. Go and fetch some water. Get enough water early, so we can start our journey."

When everyone heard this, they quickly found various tools to fetch water.

Even Xiao An'er and Xiao Yan, holding two small bamboo tubes each, hurriedly followed.

Soon, only Yu Tang, Princess Bei, and Nan Yin who stayed behind to take care of Xiao Yening were left at the station.

"This method is feasible, but it probably won't collect too much water."

Nanyin suddenly spoke.
