Under Liu Cheng's instructions, his soldiers quickly and swiftly built a shade shelter on the roadside.
Then he called Dong Zhuo and all the officials to come and enjoy the shade under the shade.
Of course, the shade shed where Dong Zhuo was located was different from that of Baiguan.
Dong Zhuo's awning is not only large in scale, but also looks relatively tall.
More importantly, it is separated from the shade shed where the officials are located.
Thousands of steps away.
Inside this shade shed, Liu Cheng is boiling water.
Looking at the steaming boiling water, Dong Zhuo felt that he was getting a little hotter.
At the same time, looking at Liu Cheng's behavior, I became even more puzzled.
This is what Kede said, making ice?
Is this making ice?
Is there a fire to make ice?
Under Dong Zhuo's puzzled gaze, Liu Cheng put some stones into the large container.
This stone is saltpeter.
After putting the saltpeter and these things inside, the boiling water also boiled.
Liu Chenggong poured it into a clean copper basin.
Then some unclean water was poured into a large container.
Then he put the copper basin filled with boiling water into the container.
Dong Zhuo stood here and watched without blinking. He wanted to see how Kede made ice!
He was very curious.
Then, he saw it.
Under Dong Zhuo's gaze, the water in the large vat soon began to emit white gas.
It's just that this white air is not hot, but cool!
And a layer of fine water droplets appeared on the outside of the water tank!
It didn’t take long for the cold water to start freezing!
It started to freeze at a speed visible to the naked eye!
After the water in the water tank begins to freeze, the temperature of the boiling water in the copper basin also drops rapidly.
After a while, the water inside began to freeze.
Dong Zhuo looked confused as he witnessed everything that happened before his eyes.
The boss's eyes were wide open, full of disbelief!
He hesitantly reached out and touched the ice in the vat, and his hand felt cold.
I even feel like I want to get my hands on it!
This is indeed ice!
Ice is colder than the ice in the ice cellar!
Dong Zhuo looked at the ice in front of him, then looked up at Liu Cheng beside him. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
After being stunned for a while, he said: "Ked, this...is this how the ice is made?"
Liu Cheng nodded and said: "Yes, how about it, is it simple?"
Dong Zhuo nodded. It was indeed very simple. Just throw some stones into the container and put some water in it.
Then he shook his head again, this thing is not simple.
After all, no one has ever done this before.
It seems very simple, but no one does it, and it is really difficult!
After seeing Liu Cheng making ice so easily, the quality is so good.
Dong Zhuo suddenly felt that in the past, ice cellars were dug, and a lot of manpower was spent on digging ice from the river in the coldest weather, transporting it to the ice cellar, storing it, and keeping it for consumption in the summer.
, how stupid it is to use it as a way to cool down!
With a method like Kede's, why is there any need for such trouble?
How good it is to eat and cook now!
There is no need for such trouble.
Moreover, this ice is made of boiled water, which is much cleaner than ice cut from the river.
"Ked, what is this stone?
Why is it so magical?"
Dong Zhuo stared at some remaining stones and looked at Liu Cheng asking questions.
Liu Cheng smiled and said: "This thing is called saltpeter. It is a very magical thing and has many wonderful uses. It is used to make ice, which is one of them."
Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Cheng and said: "Ke De, could it be... could this be also given by the turtle in a dream?"
Dong Zhuo didn't believe in the turtle's dream. Even the turtle's dream was told by them.
But now, he really believes this.
If it weren't for the turtle's dream, how could Kede know so many magical things.
After waiting for a while, the water in the copper basin completely turned into ice.
Not far away, the mung bean soup cooked by Liu Cheng was ready.
Immediately remove the ice from the copper basin, pour the mung bean soup into the copper basin, and freeze it.
Dong Zhuo couldn't wait to do it himself, knocked a piece of ice and put it in the bowl.
Holding the bowl in both hands, he took a mouthful of ice, and a chill spread from his mouth to his limbs.
It made him feel extremely comfortable.
Suddenly I felt like the heat was gone!
The whole person couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief!
"Comfortable!"
He sighed aloud.
Moreover, I also think the ice made by Liu Cheng is particularly delicious.
Because Liu Cheng added some honey into the ice, and when you eat it, it feels cool and sweet in your mouth.
Liu Cheng broke the ice into pieces, put it into a bowl, and asked the soldiers around him to carry it to the officials.
Afterwards, several more pots were made and distributed to the soldiers.
The officials obviously did not expect that there would be ice to eat when they came here, and they were all surprised and happy.
“It’s so comfortable!”
“It’s really comfortable!”
Everyone spoke with emotion.
Some people seemed surprised and asked where the ice came from and why it tasted so delicious and sweet.
How could there be so much ice at this time?
The soldiers who came to deliver the ice said that the emperor's uncle had just made the ice.
After getting this unexpected answer no matter what they thought, these officials were suddenly confused.
They made a lot of guesses in their minds about the origin of this ice, but no matter how they guessed, they never guessed that this is how the ice came from!
"How is this ice made?"
Some people couldn't help but ask.
But the soldier smiled and shook his head, saying that they didn't know either.
In the extremely complicated mood of the officials, the soldiers quickly returned.
I also ate ice.
Later, a sharp-eyed official discovered this and couldn't help but said angrily: "You really have no dignity at all!
We just eat ice, so how can we give something as precious as ice to the soldiers?
How can we let these soldiers eat the same things as us..."
He felt insulted.
He felt that his status was noble and those soldiers should not eat the same food as them.
When Xun Shuang heard this, he turned to look at him, said nothing, and continued to eat his own ice.
After Xun Shuang looked at this man like this, he immediately stopped talking.
Instead, he eats ice quietly.
Not long after, the soldiers came over again carrying bowls.
This time, what was served was no longer ice, but iced mung bean soup.
After everyone saw it, they couldn't help but be overjoyed.
After eating some ice and drinking some iced mung bean soup, I felt that all the heat and heat were gone...
And here, Dong Zhuo also felt very comfortable eating.
One person drank a small pot of mung bean soup.
"It's so comfortable. It's so comfortable to have ice to eat this summer. When it comes to making food, it still depends on you, Kede!"
Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Cheng and said.
Liu Cheng smiled and said: "Grandpa, just like it."
Saying this, Liu Cheng suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Dong Zhuo: "Grandfather, although Dong Huang has violated military law, he is your nephew and my uncle after all..."
Although the matter of Dong Huang and Dong Min's fat woman had passed, now that Liu Cheng had met Dong Zhuo, he had to mention this matter and could not let it pass quietly.
This is a matter of attitude.
Dong Zhuo reached out and pulled Liu Cheng up from the ground.
"I can't blame you for this matter. It's their own right to die. Even if Kede doesn't do anything about this matter, I won't spare them!"
Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Cheng and said: "Actually, I feel sorry for Ke De in this matter.
Dong Min, this damn guy, did this kind of thing.
Not only for my mother and I, but also for you two, Kede and Nannan.
If we really talk about it, we must kill all Dong Min's people and kill them all.
But I didn’t do it after all…”
Liu Chengdao: "My grandfather did the right thing in these things. This is human nature. In fact, even if my grandfather spared my uncle's life, it would be fine..."
The two were having a conversation here while drinking ice-cold mung bean soup.
With this iced mung bean soup, the hot weather is no longer hot.
"Ked, there are some things. At this time, the two of us need to sit here and talk about it carefully."
After having appetizers from Dong Min and others, Dong Zhuo and Liu Cheng started to chat.
When Liu Cheng heard this, he bowed his hands respectfully to Dong Zhuo, saying that he was all ears.
Dong Zhuo pointed at himself and said: "I, as you can see, am getting older and older. I can't even breathe when I walk, let alone fight on a horse.
Everyone says that I, Dong Zhuo, am arrogant, rude, troublesome, and lawless, but they don't know that I, Dong Zhuo, am actually the most reasonable.
Now that there is such a situation in Guanzhong, you, Kede, take the greatest credit, and no one can compare with you.
Without you, Kede, let alone taking over Yizhou and Liangzhou, Guanzhong would not be like this.
Guanzhong will surely be filled with disaster victims and mourning victims everywhere.
Kede, I know how much effort you have put into this matter, and I will keep it in mind.
Not to mention the rest, it's just that Lu Bu and Wang Yun are colluding with each other. If you hadn't noticed it in advance, Kede, and told me what happened, so that I could be on guard here, I would have been killed by these two thieves.
Got it!
In the days that followed, I heard some news saying that Kede would be detrimental to me.
I don't believe this.
After all, if you have this intention, Ked, you don't need to do this at all.
At that time, regarding the affairs of Lu Bu and Wang Yun, all I had to do was keep silent and wait for them to kill me and the Dong family.
Then, Kede, you can bring troops and horses to pacify Lu Bu and Wang Yun, and that's good.
It can be said to be justifiable.
But, Ked, you didn't do that.
Instead, he chose to tell me things so that I could be prepared.
Ever since this happened, I have completely believed that you, Kede, are sincere to me.
I, Dong Zhuo, have a long gone son and no grandson.
My brother and nephew are useless and they do all kinds of bad things.
A son-in-law is not qualified for big things.
I thought about it for a while, and I feel most at ease when I leave it in your hands, Kede.
Kede, you have this ability, you can not waste this power, you can continue to move forward, and move better and better.
Moreover, I am able to have these now, many of them were defeated by Kede.
You have put in a lot of effort, and many of them belong to you...
I will give these to you.
I can only rest assured if I leave it to Ke De.
Dong Min and the others don't know how much they weigh or how capable they are, so it's useless to fight over each other...
Xiwu is about to be built.
When Kede becomes the King of Han, I will go to Xiwu and live there..."
Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Cheng and said this.
There is some emotion on the face, and sometimes, there will be some smiles.
Liu Cheng thought that Dong Zhuo would say a lot to him when he came here to see him, but he did not expect that Dong Zhuo would be so straightforward and say so many words like this.
He gave so many things directly to himself.
Liu Cheng had already considered these things, and he also felt that Dong Zhuo would give them to him when the time came.
But he felt that he would have to wait until Dong Zhuo was about to die before doing this.
After all, a real man only needs his tools and reputation, but not his real person.
His own identity is somewhat sensitive to Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo is more or less capable of defending.
It is most reasonable and possible to leave this in your own hands until you die.
But who would have thought that he would give these to himself now.
"Grandfather, you are in your prime, and you will have a lot of life left in the future. My great-grandmother is as old as this, and as her son, you will also live a long life. It will not be a problem to live to at least eighty."
Liu Cheng looked at Dong Zhuo and said.
Dong Zhuo heard this and shook his head with a smile: "If you don't live to such an old age, it's not good to live to such an old age..."
Liu Chengdao: "It is true that my grandfather does not have a son now, but he does have a direct granddaughter.
I don’t have any relatives, so I’m still waiting for you to coddle my great-grandson when the time comes!”
Hearing what Liu Cheng said, Dong Zhuo couldn't help but smile.
"Ked, with your words, I feel relieved!
I wish I could live a few more years.
The matter is settled like this. After a while, I will begin to hand over the power in my hands to you...
Don't refuse the affairs of the King of Han, just do them.
I am sincere about this and there is no temptation whatsoever.
Many of them thought that I, Dong Zhuo, would usurp the throne, but in fact they were all wrong.
I, Dong Zhuo, have no children or grandchildren, and I am so old, so why should I usurp the throne?
Where can I be as comfortable as I am now?
I, Dong Zhuo, am also a veteran of the Han Dynasty!
However, Emperor Ling, the son of a single husband, could not remain seated in the position of emperor.
Emperor Ling, the son of an independent man, is far from above the rest in terms of talent, so it would be better for you, Kede, to do this.
Some people have been waiting for you and me to fall out and fight each other because of this matter. I can only say that these people are overthinking it!
Kede, it is true that you are a member of the Han family, but you are also my grandson-in-law, Dong Zhuo!"
