Survival on a deserted island, a fake daughter raises a tiger cub and makes the star cry

Chapter 170 Gunpowder
After stir-frying the chili salt evenly, place it on a plate to cool.

Then use a dagger to peel the mango and cut it into long strips.

He dipped the long strip in chili salt and took a bite, and his facial expression was distorted.

It is sour, spicy and refreshing, and its special taste stimulates the taste buds, making people more and more addicted.

The other three people saw how Shi Nianqing ate and took a sour mango bar out of curiosity.

When they took the first bite, the three of them squatted down because of the sour taste.

The whole face is distorted too much.

"Ahhhhhh, this is so sour!"

"I feel something biting my tongue!"

"what---"

The three devastated faces left the audience in the live broadcast room stunned.

Ah—ah.

[What's going on? Is it really that sour?]

[Is this thing really edible? ]

[I'm dying of laughter! I just made emoticons out of all four people's expressions. I can't stop laughing.]

[No, I'm a little curious, how dark is this?]

……

Shi Nianqing took a new mango and dipped it in chili salt. Although her eyes and nose were dizzy from eating it, she couldn't stop.

"What's going on? I suddenly feel a little high on this stuff."

"It's sour and spicy, and it makes me feel sober."

"Somehow I think it's still a little delicious."

.....
The three of them talked to each other and found that the taste was actually quite good. The most important thing was that the more they ate, the more addicted they became.

Shi Nianqing did not forget to introduce the food to the audience in the live broadcast room while eating.

"After you peel off the unripe mango, there's no astringency left, just a refreshing sourness. The chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns in the salt add a hint of spiciness, which complements the sourness of the mango."

"They also add roasted sea salt, which adds a salty flavor. The combination of the three flavors creates a special, addictive taste. Although it's quite sour, it tastes really good."

“Everyone should try it if you have the chance!”

"The ratio of chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns to salt is about one to one to five."

“If you like barbecue, add some cumin and fennel to it to enhance the flavor.”

Some viewers in the live broadcast room took careful notes. As the live broadcast progressed, supermarkets on various planets put Earth's items on the shelves.

There are even quite a few economically profitable crops that have begun to be cultivated.

Many abandoned planets have been replanted with economic crops, which can be regarded as a waste utilization.

A whole plate of mango strips, which used more than ten mangoes, was eaten up by four people.

My eyes and nose were darting around while I was eating, it was so sour that I couldn’t stop.

Put the remaining pears in a pot and add herbs to boil to make a pot of heat-reducing soup. After cooling, add ice cubes and sugar, and put it in a bamboo tube to drink as an iced drink.

While drinking pear soup, Shi Nianqing suddenly remembered the milk tea she drank in her previous life.

I want milk tea...

I'll try it sometime, I haven't had it in a long time.

But now is not the time to drink milk tea.

Shi Nianqing wanted to dig a well. The fresh water he used now was brought back from a stream some distance away from the shelter.

It takes time to fetch water every day, which is very inconvenient. I have thought about digging a well before, but digging a well with manpower is very difficult and requires digging to a depth of dozens of meters.

Now that we have sulfur, we can make gunpowder and use it to directly blow through the surface, which can save a lot of effort.

He did it right away. Shi Nianqing crushed the ore he brought back with stones and put it directly into the pot to heat it.

Then find the iron plate made earlier and place it on the gradually melting sulfur.

The sulfur will slowly vaporize after being exposed to high temperatures. The temperature of the plate above is relatively low. After cooling, it will gradually solidify and then slide down from the iron plate.

I believe that we will be able to collect a large amount of purified sulfur soon.

While Shi Nianqing was working, he also did not forget to explain to the people in the live broadcast room.

"Natural sulfur ores like this contain a lot of impurities, making them unstable when used to make gunpowder. The best way is to purify them so that they can be used to make gunpowder more stable."

"If you're doing this alone, it's best to do it in an open area. This purification method will produce a lot of toxic gas."

"Let me do it directly by the stream like this. It will be much better if I stay farther away while I purify it."

Shi Nianqing kept moving his hands while talking, adding firewood from time to time.

When the sulfur ore in the pot has basically disappeared, only some impurities remain.

When the temperature drops completely, you will see a large string of crystal clear sulfur collected under the iron plate.

This purified sulfur is not as pungent as before and looks much better.

"Sulfur at this level can be used to make gunpowder. If you want to try it yourself, make sure you do it in a safe environment."

The audience in the live broadcast room.

[It seems like Sister Shi is trying to teach me how to make gunpowder]

[Do I need to laugh to death? I don’t dare to move at all.]

[Funny, does Sister Shi think we are as strong as her?]

[We have the gunpowder, when will we penetrate the interstellar space?]

……

Shi Nianqing put the purified sulfur on a plate and let it dry.

Take out an appropriate amount of saltpeter and charcoal from the shelter, crush them into fine powder with stones, and then sieve them further.

Mix them evenly according to the ratio of ancient gunpowder.

At first, only a little bit was mixed. When it was almost mixed, Shi Nianqing lit a fire with a branch next to him.

Soon the mixed gunpowder was seen to suddenly explode, emitting a beautiful light.

The orange light looked particularly eye-catching, and Shi Nianqing showed a satisfied smile on his face.

"This ratio is correct. With a little adjustment, we can make powerful gunpowder."

After making sure the ratio was correct, Shi Nianqing first used these materials to make a piece of gunpowder about the size of a finger, the outside of which was made of bamboo.

A fuse made of bamboo fiber, filled with gunpowder.

After Shi Nianqing lit the fire, he stood at Martin Yuan.

"Clap--"

The sound of explosion was heard, and a small blasted hole could be seen not far away.

"This ratio is quite powerful. We can adjust it a little bit to make it even more powerful. It would be best to adjust the direction of the explosion."

Shi Nianqing kept adjusting the ingredients while muttering to himself.

Soon a new firecracker was made, a small hole was dug, and after it was lit, only the sound of gunpowder exploding could be heard.

When he went to check, he found that the gunpowder was spreading in all directions and did not explode in the fixed direction as he had expected.

“It still needs some adjustments…”
