Chapter 155 Distilled Water

"Come here, bring me the bronze sword, the vat and the cloth!"

After figuring out what he was going to do, Li Xin immediately gave orders to the remaining people who were still unconscious. The Qin soldiers were puzzled for a moment, but they still took action immediately.

"Sir, the weather is too hot. I'd better go into the cabin and rest."

A Qin soldier said to Li Xin, while Li Xin shook his head.

"It's just because the weather is hot now, so I can wait until I can be saved."

Are you confused, sir?

One Qin soldier looked at another Qin soldier, and the Qin soldier who was looked at was also a little helpless.

how could I know?

"Sir, everything is ready. I'll do what I need to do."

"Bring me water from the sea."

"Sir, what do you want to do with the sea water?"

"Come and drink."

"Sir, you must not do it. My family grew up by the sea. The thirstier you are, the less you can drink seawater. Otherwise, you will be thirstier and die."

Qin Zu, who thought Li Xin was crazy, was immediately frightened, and then said immediately, while others did not understand why sea water could kill people.

But they also know that the more you drink seawater, the thirstier you become. Some Qin soldiers could not help but drink seawater. As a result, the more they drank, the thirstier they became. If others had not given him some water, then this person would have died of thirst.

"Who said I'm going to drink sea water directly without making preparations?"

Li Xin knew from their expressions that they had misunderstood, so he rolled his eyes and immediately gave the order. Now he had to fight for every minute.

Since there was no copper piece, Li Xin replaced it with a bronze sword. Fortunately, the bronze sword could also be used as a copper piece.

"Sir, the sea water has been scooped up."

Buckets of seawater were put together, and these Qin soldiers were also gathered together. Those who were not unconscious were all Li Xin's personal guards.

"Very good, just follow me."

Then Li Xin immediately followed what the memoryless man said and placed the bronze sword on the surface of a bucket of seawater, then placed it tilted, and then pointed it tilted towards an empty bucket.

Seal the top of the empty barrel, leaving an opening, and align the tip of the sword with the opening of the empty barrel, so that the evaporated water droplets will drip into the barrel along with the tilted bronze sword.

"What do you think my lord is doing?"

The sun was so strong that many Qin soldiers felt like they were covered in sweat, but they still watched Li Xin's movements seriously, and one Qin soldier was a little curious about what Li Xin was doing.

So he said to a Qin soldier next to him. The Qin soldier in question didn't know what Li Xin was doing, but his intuition told him that this was a very important matter.

"I don't know, but adults must have their own reasons for doing things. Just follow them."

"Do you see it clearly? I'll do it carefully, and then let people take turns to look after it. Once the bucket of seawater is out of water, water will be fetched from the sea. Do you understand?"

Li Xin looked at the sea water, and then said to Qin Zu beside him.

"Understood!"

Then one by one, the Qin soldiers quickly began to move. It was just a little bit of sea water. They were not tired from marching and fighting. At this small hour, they were still busy.

"Hey, why did the water disappear all of a sudden?"

A Qin soldier looked at it boredly and found that there was no water in the bucket of seawater, so he immediately went to fetch some seawater.

As a result, the deck was covered with a large number of wooden barrels, and even the bathing barrels and large drinking tanks were moved out.

Densely packed, wooden basins for washing your face, wooden buckets for fetching water, tubs for bathing, and large tanks for filling water were slowly laid out on the deck.

At one glance, trypophobia patients would probably be frightened to death.

On this day, especially at noon, a large number of Qin soldiers continued to fetch seawater, and the seawater kept disappearing mysteriously because Li Xin ordered that all empty barrels were not allowed to be moved.

So no one observed that all the empty barrels were no longer empty barrels, but began to accumulate a little bit of liquid.

"I'm so exhausted. This is the first time."

A Qin soldier rubbed his sore arm, and then said helplessly, while the Qin soldiers from other teams around him also nodded.

They all took turns to fetch seawater, so they spent the whole day fetching water, while the other Qin soldiers were looking at which bucket there was no more seawater in, and immediately went up to add it.

Strangely enough, everyone stared at the seawater with wide eyes, but the seawater in these barrels slowly decreased in their eyes.

Although the reduction rate is a bit slow, it can't hold up too many barrels.

The more barrels there are, the longer the observation time will be. The longer the time, the more seawater will evaporate, so they are helpless, so they can only continue to transport seawater under the bright sun.

Because of the continuous pouring of sea water, no one noticed that some tiny crystals appeared in the bucket that was about to evaporate, white and little by little.

If a fool were here, he would be able to tell at a glance that what is left after these evaporated seawaters are salt crystals, although crystals like this still contain a lot of impurities.

But this is much safer than mineral salt, but not many people have noticed it. After all, they are not short of salt. If they are short, they can get some seawater for cooking and supplement the salt.

Time passed little by little and it was getting dark. Li Xin immediately took people to take out all the empty buckets.

"Strange, why is it so heavy?"

A Qin soldier originally thought that an empty barrel was an empty barrel, so why carry it? However, he had to carry out the order of his superiors. He just wanted to lift it, but found that he didn't use enough strength.

Then I used a little more strength and found that it was a little heavy after lifting it up, as if... there was water inside.

"Which kid poured the seawater in? What will happen if adults find out?"

This Qin soldier was kind-hearted and planned to pour out the water, but Li Xin immediately stopped him when he saw it.

"Don't fall!"

"Sir, no, I saw someone poured some seawater into it, and I wanted to dump it."

When the Qin soldier saw that it was Li Xin, he immediately said to Li Xin. His hand also stopped, and Li Xin immediately stepped forward and held the bucket of water.

"Fortunately, fortunately it was not wasted."

Then Li Xin took a sip directly to his mouth.

"Sir, you can't drink it, this is sea water!"

The Qin soldier was stunned, screamed immediately, and quickly tried to stop him. When the Qin soldiers around him saw it, they immediately put down the empty buckets in their hands, widened their eyes, and seemed to run over.

"Stop, I'm fine, this is not sea water."

"Sir, don't be ridiculous, this is sea water. Who can put fresh water in when they have nothing to do?"
