109 Hairy Stars(2)
After many more efforts, the buggy finally entered the atmosphere of the furry star.
Everything around suddenly darkened.
This is an inevitable step in landing on the stars.
Every time at this time, Marven will think about a question:
If Grandpa Cane was able to take them from Earth to the distant starry sky, why did Marvin and the off-road vehicle Weiwei always have to be busy for half a day to succeed when landing on the stars?
Once Marvin asked this question, Grandpa Cane said, "You know how airplanes fly, right?" โ
Marven shook his head.
Although he had read picture books about airplane flight, he didn't know exactly how to operate it. Because there are so many buttons in the cockpit of an airplane. Marven only knew that the pilot pressed a few buttons, and then flicked a gear lever that looked like a car shifting gear, and the plane flew up.
Grandpa Cane explained: "When the plane flies in the sky, it is automatic, which is called automatic cruise. However, during take-off and landing, the pilot still has to operate manually. โ
This means that Grandpa Cane is responsible for navigation and cruise, and Marvin and Weiwei are responsible for take-off and landing.
It means I understand, but that's not the answer Marven really wants to know.
Of course, it doesn't matter what Marvin really wants to know the answer. The important thing is that the buggy finally landed safely on this bouncing star.
But the darkness did not immediately disperse.
Through his previous experience, Marven knew that he must have entered another darkness.
Marvin and Mia don't seem to be so lucky. Several times in a row, they landed in the darkness of the stars.
After the lights of the off-road vehicle were turned on, Marvin and Mia's hanging hearts fell slightly. The darkness here is not like on the Demon Star, and you can't see far away with the headlights on.
The headlights shine at a great distance. However, something obscured them in the distance - they were trees, big and tall.
Looking up through the sunroof of the off-road vehicle, Marven could faintly see the bright light.
"It should be daytime now, and the bright lights above should be the sky." Marven said, pointing to the top of his head.
"But are these trees that tall?" Mia looked up for a long time.
"I don't know. We've got to find a way out of this forest. After Marven finished speaking, he directed the off-road vehicle to drive forward, hoping to find a high place to observe the surrounding environment.
This forest is quiet, just like the forests on Earth. Except for the occasional squirrel and rabbit, there are no large or terrible beasts, and there are no scary demons.
They finally found a hill that the buggy had to climb with a long day's effort.
Here, a bright sky can already be seen.
Marven guessed that it was indeed daytime. The sun was frolicking among the treetops overhead.
What Marvin didn't guess was that the trees were much taller than he had imagined. It's almost as tall as a mountain.
The further up the hill you go, the harder the road becomes. In the end, the off-road vehicle had no choice but to stop under a large rock and could not climb any further.
Marven had no choice but to get off the SUV and find a few rocks to pad under the wheels of the SUV to prevent the SUV from slipping up and down the hill.
Marven carried his grandfather's old cane, took a spider silk from the insect star from the trunk of the off-road vehicle and set off for the mountain.
The further you climb up the mountain, the stronger the wind becomes. It reminds Marven of the howling north wind in winter. Fortunately, the wind is warm.
Finally, Marven climbed higher than the treetops.
When he looked into the distance, he saw a shocking sceneโa dense forest with no end in sight.
The trees in the forest grow very tall, and the tips of the trees are very thin and soft, and when they are fluttering in the wind, they are like soft hairs.
It turns out that the hair on the hairy ball star is these trees.
