Yang Xiao slept one night in the Winged Dragon Tribe, and was dragged by Xiao Bing to find salt early the next morning.
Xiaobing has no interest in eating any food this morning since he tasted salt for the first time last night.
Thinking that if there was no salt in the future, life would be worse than death, so he took Yang Xiao to find salt early in the morning.
Yang Xiao had no choice but to follow Xiao Bing to find salt.
The three elders of the Xuanbing Winged Dragon shook their heads when they saw the two people leaving.
The third child could not forget to say:
"Okay, as long as she doesn't pester the old man, she can mess with whoever she likes."
Yang Xiao and Xiaobing flew for a while and arrived at a lake dozens of kilometers away from the Pterosaur Tribe.
Viewed from mid-air, the lake is so large that you can't see the edge at a glance.
"Brother Yang Xiao, look, is there any salt here?"
Yang Xiao walked to the lake and took a look.
The lake water is clear and bright.
I held it in my hand and tasted it. It was fresh water.
Yang Xiao shook his head and said:
"This is fresh water and the salt content is too low."
The salt content in fresh water is so small that it is extremely difficult to produce usable table salt.
Xiaobing didn't know anything about fresh and salt water, so he was disappointed when Yang Xiao said there was no salt.
"Brother Yang Xiao, what should we do?"
"Are there any other lakes or oceans nearby that have a slightly bitter taste in the water?"
"You mean the water tastes a little bitter?"
"right."
"I know there is a lake. The water there is very bitter. We call it Bitter Lake."
"Take me to see it."
Xiaobing nodded, took Yang Xiao's hand, and flew into the sky together towards the Bitter Lake.
After a while, Yang Xiao saw a gray-brown area in the distance. In the middle of the gray-brown, there was a blue lake that looked like a gem.
Xiaobing led Yang Xiao to the lake, pointed with his hand, and said:
"Brother Yang Xiao, this is the Bitter Lake. Except for some weeds on the edge of the lake, there is no grass growing anywhere else. The lake water is very bitter, and we rarely come here to play."
Yang Xiao only took one glance and felt that this place looked a bit like a salt-alkali land on the earth.
If it is really a saline-alkali land, then the lake water is a salt lake, and boiling salt will be no problem.
I walked to the lake and took a sip of water, which was bitter in my mouth.
According to Yang Xiao's common sense, this lake water should be salt lake water, and edible salt can be obtained through distillation.
Yang Xiao glanced at the surrounding environment and saw a large stone about two meters in diameter not far away.
Walking to the stone, he directly lifted the stone. After observing its appearance, he felt lucky like a knife. He whittled, hacked, and dug out the stone with his right hand. In a moment, an irregular large stone turned into a stone basin.
Xiaobing on the side asked curiously:
"Brother Yang Xiao, what are you doing? Aren't you looking for salt? What are you doing with this stone?"
"Don't worry, you'll find out later."
Yang Xiao took a stone basin and scooped out a basin full of water and put it on the ground.
"It's your turn to help."
Xiaobing was stunned and looked at Yang Xiao.
"I contribute? What do I do?"
"Do you know the flame skill, the kind that breathes fire?"
"Yes, but,"
"Spray fire directly into the water in the stone basin and burn the water inside."
"Is it that simple?"
"Yes, it's that simple."
Xiaobing looked at Yang Xiao's determined expression and then looked at the water in the stone basin. He was doubtful. He slapped his right hand in the air, and a ball of flame instantly enveloped the entire stone basin.
"Zizzi..."
A sizzling sound was heard, and steam instantly rose into the sky.
In a moment, the water in the stone basin was boiled cleanly.
"Okay, stop."
Yang Xiao shouted, Xiaobing stopped his fire skills, looked at the stone basin, and asked:
"That's it? Where's the salt?"
Yang Xiao reached out and grabbed a small handful of white crystals from under the stone basin, put it in his mouth and tasted it, nodded, and sent the white crystals to Xiao Bing.
"Taste it."
"Um?"
Xiaobing looked at the white crystal in Yang Xiao's palm with surprise on his face, carefully grabbed a little with his hand, put it in his mouth and tasted it.
"Yeah, it's true. It's really salt. It tastes the same as the one you gave me yesterday."
Xiaobing screamed excitedly, squatted next to the stone basin, and grabbed the remaining white crystals inside with his hands, as if watching.
She never thought that there was such a treasure hidden in the water.
"Brother Yang Xiao, you are so amazing. How do you know there is salt hidden in the water?"
Yang Xiao smiled and didn't answer.
Because he couldn't explain it clearly, he couldn't give Xiaobing a general chemistry class, right?
"Okay, now you know that there is salt hidden in this bitter lake. You can just extract the salt yourself from now on. Let's go back now."
"Don't worry, I'll play again."
As he spoke, Xiao Bing took a stone basin and scooped out a basin of lake water. He used his fire skills and sprayed the water into the stone basin.
Yang Xiao could only watch and wait.
After a while, the lake water dried up, leaving some white crystals behind.
Yang Xiao originally wanted to use something to filter the lake water before burning it, but after thinking about it, it seemed unnecessary. The pterosaurs were originally monsters, and they usually ate rough food, so they didn't care about the impurities.
Xiaobing happily held the stone basin with both hands, and flew towards the pterosaur tribe with Yang Xiao.
"Grandpa, father, look, salt, salt,"
Xiaobing held the stone basin in both hands and ran to the three elders of Xuanbing Pterosaur and Chilong, showing off happily.
The three elders of the Black Ice Winged Dragon were meeting with several leaders of the clan to discuss the possible invasion of the ancient continent by the Thanos Mad Saint.
The third child saw the white crystals in the stone basin, grabbed some with his hands, and put it into his mouth.
"Hey, it seems to have the same taste as the salt that Brother Yang sprinkled yesterday."
The eldest brother, Xuanbing Pterosaur, the second child, Chilong and others also tasted it, with surprises on their faces.
"Brother Yang, where did you find it?"
"I didn't find it, it was Xiaobing."
Yang Xiao smiled and pointed at Xiaobing.
Xiaobing said excitedly:
"I took Brother Yang Xiao to find it in the Bitter Lake. Brother Yang Xiao said that the water in the Bitter Lake contains salt. We won't have to worry about eating salt in the future."
"Okay, now that we have salt, we can also improve our food, haha..."
The third child laughed.
Chilong also immediately appointed his daughter Xiaobing to be responsible for going to Bitter Lake to collect salt.
Xiaobing happily flew to Bitter Lake with a group of young pterosaurs.
Yang Xiao said to the three elders of the Xuanbing Winged Dragon:
"Three seniors, I want to go to the Shenlong Ruins Valley. If anything happens, you can go find me there."
Chilong had a good impression of Yang Xiao, a newcomer, and asked after hearing this:
"Brother Yang, what are you doing in the Shenlong Ruins Valley? There is no grass growing there."
The boss of Xuanbing Winged Dragon knew that Yang Xiao did not want to tell the public about his training in the Shenlong Ruins Valley, so he said:
"Okay, if Brother Yang knows the way, you can go by yourself. If you don't, I will ask the third child to accompany you, okay?"
Yang Xiao quickly said:
"No need, I took note of the terrain when I came here, I should be able to find it."
"Okay, just go there by yourself. If you can't find it, you'll come to us."
Yang Xiao nodded, waved goodbye to the three elders and others, jumped up and flew towards the Shenlong Ruins Valley.
Yang Xiao is now thinking about how to use the lake water in the Shenlong Ruins Valley to improve his genetic evolution level as soon as possible, and then return to the Zhongzhou Empire in the dwarf star.
He wondered, are the brothers in the Zhongzhou Empire suffering from killing and torture by Thanos at this moment?
