What comes into view is a large area of natural sulfur ore, which is deeply shocking.
The miracle of the Creator is unimaginable by humans, and Ye Han was stunned for a moment.
One of the main reasons why he wanted to explore this cave was to find a way to obtain sulfur.
Now I have indeed found sulfur, and there is so much of it.
Sulfur has a wide range of uses, such as bleach, pesticides, matches, rubber, etc.
And the most important use is to make gunpowder!
One of the four great inventions of China!
Ye Han stepped forward, pried off a piece of sulfur with an engineer shovel, and put it into his pocket.
"Let's go back quickly."
"The smell here is more pungent."
Ye Han wiped his eyes again.
How to collect the sulfur afterwards is a big problem!
Ye Han didn't dare to stay in such a place for a long time. Even if he didn't die, there would be sequelae.
"Um!"
Su Xiaoqi also nodded, her eyes very happy.
Finding sulfur was indeed a big discovery. Although Su Xiaoqi did not go to school well, she also knew that sulfur had many effects.
The two of them quickly started walking back, with Dahuang following closely behind.
After running out of the cave in one breath, I dared to take a breath.
The two of them stood at the door of the cave, breathing heavily.
"Come out, come out!"
"I just told you not to worry blindly. Unless you stay in there for a long time, there will be no danger. At most, it will be uncomfortable."
"Yes, in fact, the human body has a very strong self-regulation ability. Everything has a long-term impact. For example, if you smoke one cigarette, nothing will happen to you. If you smoke for decades, your lungs will be damaged.
It turned black.”
"But then we have to harvest sulfur, and we have to stay in the cave for a long time."
"Just leave this matter to Ye Han. With Ye Han's ability, he can definitely think of a way."
"There's no rush, there's no rush. We're here to dig for iron ore first this time. We can put the sulfur out first."
"If Bill can get sulfur, it can be used to make rubber."
............
Audiences all over the world are talking about it.
Ye Han and Su Xiaoqi stood at the entrance of the cave, breathing heavily and wiping their tears.
Su Xiaoqi coughed twice.
"Rinse your mouth first, then drink some water."
"How does it feel?"
Ye Han took out a military kettle and handed it to Su Xiaoqi and said.
Su Xiaoqi took the kettle, rinsed her mouth first, and then took two sips.
Only then did I feel relieved.
"I don't feel very comfortable. My eyes hurt a little and my throat feels a little sore."
This was the first time for Su Xiaoqi to experience such an environment.
Ye Han nodded. He felt the same way. This was all caused by the toxic gas inside the cave.
But they didn't stay for long, so they recovered quickly.
Next, Ye Han took out the piece of sulfur from his pocket and looked at it.
It is natural sulfur with high purity and can be used directly.
It would be great to find such sulfur.
The raw materials for making gunpowder have been found.
As we all know, to make gunpowder, you need three major materials: sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal.
It is recorded in the "Tiangong Kaiwu" of the Kingdom of China that gunpowder is mainly saltpeter and sulfur, supplemented by plant ash...and then the gunpowder became sound.
Needless to say, things like charcoal and plant ash are easy to make.
Now that sulfur has been found again, the only thing left is saltpeter.
Once you find saltpeter, you can try to make gunpowder and use gunpowder to deal with green water anacondas!
Many people on the Internet are speculating and proposing ways to deal with green anacondas, and the most popular method is to use gunpowder.
Ye Han thought the same way. If there was gunpowder, the green water anaconda would have no choice but to die!
Of course, it is very difficult to find saltpeter.
In other words, this thing cannot be found and used directly.
Rather, it requires certain steps to synthesize and produce.
Even if a saltpeter mine is found, the minerals contain stones such as soda saltpeter and potassium saltpeter, and the main component of saltpeter is potassium nitrate.
Therefore, saltpeter is probably the most difficult part to deal with.
At least so far, Ye Han hasn't found anything yet.
And without saltpeter, gunpowder cannot be made.
Although Ye Han really wanted to kill the green anaconda, there was no point in rushing now. Let's just take it one step at a time.
Maybe one day we will be able to find materials that can be used to refine saltpeter.
After resting for a while, both Ye Han and Su Xiaoqi felt much better.
It’s just Da Huang who has no energy and is still suffering.
"You must follow me."
Ye Han rubbed Dahuang's head and said with a smile.
The problem with rhubarb is definitely not big, and it will be fine tomorrow at most.
Next, Ye Han regained his strength, took the engineer shovel, and walked into the cave again.
Su Xiaoqi followed Ye Han with two backpacks and an engineer shovel in her hand.
Ye Han did not forget the main purpose of this trip.
That is to mine the iron ore here.
When he reached the limonite mine, Ye Han stopped and took a deep breath.
The air here is pretty good, not as scary as the depths of the cave, but it's best not to stay too long.
This time Ye Han was also prepared. He took off his sweatshirt, poured some water on it, tied it around his head, and covered his mouth and nose.
Standard fire self-rescue methods.
In fact, in fires, the cause of most deaths is not being burned to death, but being choked to death by the smoke produced by combustion. The real cause of death is suffocation.
Therefore, teachers will teach children from an early age that if they encounter a fire, quickly add water to a towel or clothes. If there is no water, pee, and then cover your mouth and nose to escape.
Ye Han is convenient, but Su Xiaoqi is a bit difficult to deal with. She can't use her own underwear.
So Ye Han gave her his coat and worked shirtless.
Anyway, the temperature in the cave is very high. If you don’t take off your clothes now, you will have to take them off later.
"start!"
Ye Han gave the order, and the two started digging with engineering shovels.
The engineer's shovel touched the limonite and made a tooth-aching sound.
There was even an appearance of Mars.
Ye Han dug his shovel down and dug out a piece of limonite.
"So simple?"
“It’s fake, can mining be so easy?”
"What trick is Ye Han using? Where can I buy it?"
"I work in a mine. Mining is very difficult. Now half of the work is done with mining machines. Ye Han is mining with a sapper shovel. I think it's quite fake."
"Who can explain it, I can't understand it either."
"Come, come, look, don't you understand?"
The viewers in the live broadcast room all expressed doubts. Even Ye Han's die-hard fans felt that the scene just now was a bit outrageous.
But soon, they got the answer.
Because Ye Han shoveled down again, sparks flew everywhere, but this time, he failed to dig out a piece of iron ore.
Ye Han's hands were numb, he shook his arms and frowned.
"The piece was probably loose just now, so I was asked to dig it out."
"The next thing is going to be difficult. This is iron ore, so it's not easy to dig!"
Ye Han sighed. He budgeted to set aside two days to mine here, but now it seems that he may not be able to dig anything out in two days.
And he was also worried, what if the engineer shovel was damaged?
