Chapter 40: Bai Endeavor (3)
Before I walked out of the gate of the Bai family, I was on the edge of the stone grinding plate, and I saw Bai Endeavour's human figure coming in from the outside, with the wind under his feet. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Mom! Mom, I'm back! His tone was full of excitement, as if he had found a treasure.
I watched him bounce into the house. Before I could follow to the door, I heard Bai Mu scolding inside: "Why are you covered in mud again, oops, look at your head is muddy." Then I saw the middle-aged woman carrying a square object that should be a towel, and walked over and pasted it on the big man's face, wiping it vigorously.
"Hey!" Bai Enjin took the towel, wiped it vigorously on his face and head, and then consciously went to the sink to wash the towel and hang it up. "The fawn took me to see the castle today!"
"What a castle... It's called an observatory. The White Mother corrected him.
"Huh?" Bai Endeavor didn't react for a while, "What is an observatory?" ”
"Forget it." Bai Mu waved her hand, her voice softened, like coaxing a child: "Then what did you see there?" ”
"That palace is so big," Bai Fenjin immediately gestured excitedly, drawing a semicircle in the air with both hands, "There is such a high top, and there are constellations on it, I recognize Beidou, and the constellation of Ursa Major." ”
It's funny, it seems that this fool is not so stupid, and he can still recognize the constellations. It makes me feel a little ashamed of myself.
"And then, there's such a big telescope. You can see the moon! ”
"Isn't this stupid," Bai Mu casually accosted while busy with housework, "This moon, isn't it usually visible?" I still need to install such a big telescope. ”
"That, that's..." Bai Endeavor held back for a long time, feeling like he was stammering, and he kept desperately trying to say something, but he couldn't say it.
"Mars!" He finally came up with a planet farther away than the moon, "That big telescope can see Mars!" ”
"Oh, that's amazing." Bai Mu took a handful of vegetables and stuffed them in his hand, and pulled over a bench and a plastic basket, "Come, choose vegetables here." ”
"And then, then." Bai Fenjin tried hard to choose the dishes, but he still couldn't stop talking excitedly: "Then we have to climb up the mountain first, there is a small hill on the mountain, the hill has a key, you have to open the big iron gate before you can go up the steps." ”
"And then that castle still has ears!" "I asked if the castle would turn into a dragon and fly away," he said happily. ”
Then he fell into confusion, "But dragons don't seem to have wings like that." He gestured with his two hands, "It's round, a bit like a cat's ear, white, very big, very big." ”
Then it dawned on him: "Oh! Maybe it's wolf ears! The big snow-white wolf that protects the castle has big ears. ”
What is this? I was confused. Of course, I knew that the observatory was not a castle, and it didn't have white ears, so what he saw was definitely some kind of equipment set up on the top of the observatory. White, round...
It dawned on me that what he had just described should be the two high-magnification pan-electromagnetic wave receivers, which probably look like huge satellite receivers, which may look a little like ears when viewed from the side.
Bai Mu was busy washing clothes in the back, and said a casual "um", "And then?" ”
"Then we went in. When you go in, there is a cave first, so high and so high. You shout like that, and it will shout back. He was describing the dome and echoes of the main building.
"And then, the pretty sister took me to the back for a tour." A smile could be heard in Bai Fenjin's voice, like a child eating candy, "There are a lot of high-end things in it." Super powerful. ”
Although the amount of information in his account is pitiful, I guess he should be talking about the observatory's laboratory. Because as a high-level astronomical observatory built in a remote mountainous area with excellent natural conditions but it is not easy to find a nearby laboratory, Wangxingcun Astronomical Observatory built a fairly good experimental physics laboratory at the same time as it was built. According to the materials I have obtained, there is an independent data storage station, many analytical and experimental instruments, and a special laboratory. That's one of the reasons why I'm here - to determine if I can reopen the observatory.
The light in front of me faded and I heard a voice coming from somewhere in the room.
The voice seemed to be some distance away from me, but it was very close, all around me. However, when I checked the entire surrounding space, I didn't see a single figure.
This is a defect in the anatomy of human beings, our ears are very good at judging the horizontal orientation of a sound source, but they are very poor at judging the height. So I immediately ran out of the back door of the Bai family, and sure enough, there were two people sitting on the roof of the bungalow.
"That's... Why didn't that beautiful sister come back with you? Bai Fenjin asked the white moon deer beside him.
"Oh, she's going to keep an eye on the reception. I was supposed to stay there with her, but she said I had promised my mom and kicked me out. Bai Yuelu looked up at the sky, "Look, Daystar." ”
I looked in the direction of her finger and saw only a big sun. It seems that this conversation took place at night.
"Beidou, Beidou." Bai Fenjin excitedly sketched the outline with his fingers, "Big Dipper." ”
"Haha, brother. Since you were a child, you have liked to recognize the Big Dipper, and it is not because your father taught you first. Bai Yuelu smiled, reached out and squeezed his shoulder.
"It's hard to go to school and school." Brother Bai immediately went over and pinched her shoulder.
Maybe the mentally handicapped brother doesn't know that Bai Yuelu is no longer a student, in his impression, his sister is the smart one, the one who goes to school, and the one who will study very hard, and the one whose mother asked him to pinch her shoulder. He may not understand why, but he will do it anyway.
"You guys, did you catch the stars?" He asked expectantly as he rubbed his sister's shoulder.
"Yes, we caught the stars." Bai Yuelu replied. "Two days ago we found a signal, as if someone was sending me something. That message came from far, far away, and we're trying to receive it right now. ”
"Satellite TV from the moon." Bai Jinjin said with a smile, "Chang, Chang'e dance." ”
"Haha, I hope it wasn't for Chang'e dancing, Cen Xiao would kill me." Bai Yuelu was amused by him.
"No, it won't." Bai Enjin suddenly became serious, "Cen Xiao is a good person. ”
"Yes, yes," Bai Yuelu waved his hand, "Cen Xiao is a super good person." She laughed out loud, shook her head helplessly, and said to herself a little funny: "Why can't everyone resist Cen Xiao's charm." ”
