442, Supermoon
At dinner, it was still raining lightly outside, and the sky was still gloomy like the face of the head teacher when the results of the opening exam were announced. Although these children are not the kind of unreasonable bear children, she installed the telescope, and she proposed to look at the moon, so she always had to give them an explanation.
Unexpectedly, after dinner, the rain stopped. They waited for a while in the glass shed on the roof, and the clouds in the sky showed a faint yellow mist. Then a golden moon emerged from the clouds and hung far away in the sky.
Bishenghua saw that the moon was a little bigger than before, and the dark spots on the moon were more obvious, as if the legendary laurel tree had grown a lot again, but I didn't know where Wu Gang, who cut down the tree, went.
The children clapped their hands excitedly and cheered, "Oh, look at the moon!" Look at the moon! ”
He pointed his telescope at the moon and began to adjust the angle and focus. The moon slowly became clear in the eyepiece, and the pale gray surface could be seen covered with dense pits, like an old face covered with pockmarked seeds. She felt a little dizzy, and the beauty of the moon disappeared in her impression for a moment, so she hurriedly handed the telescope to Summer next to her.
In the summer, his family already has telescopes, and the school's interest group also has an astronomical observatory, so he is no stranger to the operation of telescopes. It's just that he prefers to observe birds with a telescope, and he has always dreamed of finding a bird as smart as the coal boss.
"Wow, the moon is so clear tonight!" While skillfully turning the focusing handwheel, he exclaimed, "What a big crater!" That crater must have been smashed by a big, big meteorite! Wow, look, those mountains are so cool, they look like the castles I built in the game! ”
The poppy listened to him energetically, and she wanted to see it in her heart, but she was embarrassed to grab it with Summer. Xia Chujue didn't care, pulled his summer clothes and said, "Brother Summer, you can't watch it alone, we have to watch it too!" ”
She pulled summer away with all her might, and leaned over to the eyepiece to look at it like summer: "Hey, why can't I see anything!" ”
Summer said, "Meimei, you're so stupid! You pulled me too hard, the telescope shifted! ”
Xia Chujue turned his head and looked at him innocently: "Then what should I do?" ”
Summer looked at her, spread her hands, and said like an older brother: "Okay, okay, I'll help you, don't touch it anymore!" As he spoke, he helped Meimei straighten the telescope, and taught her how to use the finderscope, adjust the optical axis, and turn the handwheel.
"Wow, I saw it! It's huge! Meimei cried out happily, and then wondered, "Why can't you find the rabbit?" Isn't there a white rabbit on the moon? ”
Summer smiled: "How is it possible! That's a myth or a legend, okay! The moon is a satellite of the Earth, and all asteroids and meteorites that fly from outside the solar system and crash into the Earth will be blocked by it, which is why there are so many craters on it. And the gravitational pull of the moon is only one-sixth that of the earth, and there is almost no air. Therefore, there can be no life on the moon. ”
Meimei said: "You lie, I obviously saw the tree!" Where there are trees, there are birds, and where there are birds, there is life. ”
"Cut~~, how is it possible!" Summer is dismissive.
Meimei gave the binoculars to Yu Meiren: "Sister Beauty, you can also come and take a look." ”
Although the poppy was in the same school as Summer, it was the first time she had touched a telescope. She looked at the eyepiece expectantly, looked at it for a while, and said, "I don't see any trees, but I seem to see water and waterfalls!" ”
"What are you all talking about, how can it be a tree and a water?" Not believing it, but also a little curious, Summer walked over and said, "Let me see again, you must be wrong!" ”
The poppy gave him the place.
Summer lay down and looked at it for a while, suddenly raised his head, rubbed his eyes, and said in a daze, "I...... I seem to see ...... A crow flies by! ”
Everyone laughed at this time, even Meimei and Meiren laughed: "You still say that we are wrong, you are dazzled!" ”
Meimei pushed him away with a grin, leaned in to look, and suddenly called "Dad" after looking at it for a while, and then started crying.
Bi Shenghua hurriedly went over to pick her up and asked, "What's wrong with Meimei?" ”
Meimei whimpered and said, "Godmother! I see my dad...... Whining...... Dad went to the moon, how could he come back so far, woo...... Brother Summer said it was all meteorites......"
This frightened the adults out of the way, and they didn't know what was going on. How many children use binoculars to see the moonlight, see crows, and see their fathers.
Summer and Poppy were also stunned and didn't dare to go over to look at the telescope again.
Hu Xing walked over in surprise and suspicion, looked at the eyepiece for a while, and said, "It's a very normal moon!" Nothing special! ”
After all, the weather was not very good, it was cold and wet, so Shi Dazhuang said: "Okay, okay, let's go back to the house, it's a big night, it's such a cold day, don't let the children catch a cold." ”
Everyone nodded yes. Yao Jingjing pulled the beauty, Hu Xing pulled the summer, and the lifelong flower hugged the beauty, leaving the glass roof and preparing to go downstairs.
The thick clouds around the moon began to close, and the moon slowly darkened in color, but it appeared larger. Bi Shenghua glanced back and saw that the moon was glowing dark red, and a black dot flew under the huge moon shadow, as if it was really a crow.
……
When the crows croaked and flew through the sky, Petru rejoiced and thought they were saved. However, when he saw the huge dark red moon, his heart sank again.
It was an impossibly large moon, slowly rising from behind the mountain.
The mountain became a black silhouette in the middle of the moon, and an inverted waterfall ran up the mountain like a fountain that spewed into the center of the moon. Ripples rippled at the top of the fountain, and white mist rose into the sky, blooming on the moon like a mushroom cloud.
The moon was still getting bigger, and when it rose overhead, it almost obscured most of the night sky. The crater on the moon is so clear that it is like a crater on the ground when viewed from an airplane.
A huge sense of oppression came to the face, making people feel suffocated.
Is it a dream?
Petru was puzzled. He didn't know if he was the kind of awakened person Su Huilan said, but at least he wasn't too weak in lucid dreaming, otherwise he wouldn't have been woken up by Mrs. Larry's words just now and woke up from the dream of the savage wizard.
But the sight in front of him was beyond his comprehension of the dream. This can't be his dream, he has self-knowledge, and his mental power can't make such a grand and expansive dream.
The huge moon, the clear crater, made him and the altar he was on as small as a grain of sand. Petru had the illusion that he was gliding through the darkness of space and slowly approaching the moon in a flying machine.
If it's not his dream, then whose is it? Savage Wizard? But where did the crow come from? That's obviously Aoki's coal boss!
The altar was surrounded by savages, all looking up at the sky at the moment. After a moment of silence, their patriarch waved his scepter in his hand and shouted something to the sky. And they all fell on their knees, and fell on their knees, and began to pray in the direction of the moon.
Despite the drumming in his heart, Petru knew that he had no chance to lose, and whether it was a dream or not, he had to give it a try. This may be their only chance of escaping.
"Let's go!" Without saying a word, he picked up Mrs. Larry on his back and ran towards the place where there was no one above the altar.
