"Can this kind of old antique still be used?" Suisui asked suspiciously, "And there should have been video tapes in the 1970s, right? Why are these old antiques still used?"
"Maybe it's because film can be stored longer."
As Wei Ran spoke, he emptied his backpack and stuffed the heavy film into it. He didn't say until he was sure that the wooden box with a projector pattern that Jima moved out actually contained a machine, "Don't move it out yet."
, this place doesn’t even have electricity, and you can’t play it when you move it out, so everyone is looking around to see if there are matching curtains to take with them.”
"Victor, there is a fuel generator in my plane that can provide power." Alili said proactively.
"Then let's go to the bottom of the mountain and take a look. It's too troublesome to carry the generator up." As Wei Ran spoke, he stuffed another reel of film into his bag.
With him taking the lead, Suisui and Alili immediately emptied their backpacks and stuffed as many film reels as possible into them. Jima, on the other hand, found a rolled-up curtain on top of the cabinet in the corner not far away.
.
They took as many things as possible, and after Alili locked all the lockable doors inside and outside, everyone stepped on the slippery steps and carefully returned to the right side of the foot of the mountain. The building stored a large amount of
Construction of weapons and ammunition.
After Ji Ma and Alili moved the generator from the plane, Wei Yan and Suisui also used the leather blower found in the wooden box containing the projector to carefully clean up the not too much dust on the projector. But.
They were not sure whether the projector could still be used after being kept for so long.
While waiting anxiously, Alili started the generator, and Weiran also followed the instructions on the inside of the wooden box and fixed the film film that was first stuffed into the backpack on the projector. Jima also fixed the old film on the projector.
The curtain was hung on the wall on one side of the conference room.
"let's start!"
As Wei Ran spoke, Alili immediately turned on the power. As the beam of light accurately landed on the curtain, Suisui, who was in charge of lighting, immediately turned off the clustered flashlights tied together with tape.
As the film reel rotates, exciting music comes from the small speaker attached to the projector box, and a cutscene consisting of the logo of the CCCC and the Soviet Academy of Sciences also pops up on the slightly curled curtain.
Immediately afterwards, the picture on the curtain was replaced by a demonstration animation, and at the same time, a male narrator with a strong Soviet accent began to introduce in detail the mission, flight trajectory, and the four of them could not understand the Venus 8 space probe.
Work away.
Finally, when the demonstration animation ended, a huge yellow planet appeared in the slightly hopping picture.
At the same time, everyone sitting in the conference room also knew through the narrator's introduction that what was captured in this slightly blurry picture was actually the distant Venus!
They didn't have to wait long. The voice of the narration was muted, and the sound coming from the speakers turned into a weird noise like a heavy rain. The shaking screen was replaced by a diffuse yellow color and frequent lightning.
For the next 50 minutes, the picture being played on the four-person curtain in the conference room attracted all the attention. Everyone watched the strange scene on another planet attentively, waiting patiently for the black surface of the earth.
Get closer little by little.
Finally, after a violent shake in the picture being played, the camera was completely level with the surface of Venus. However, before the smoke and dust could calm down, the picture fell into darkness. Then, the narration sounded again, with an excited tone.
He introduced various precious data collected during this exploration activity. But unfortunately, these were still professional knowledge that none of the four of them could understand.
After the entire roll of film was played, Ji Ma said with unfinished content, "Is this the end? Victor, hurry up and change the roll. Maybe you can capture aliens or something!"
"Are you dreaming?" Wei Ran shook his head dumbfounded. After Suisui turned on the flashlight for lighting, he randomly picked up a reel of film and replaced it.
However, this time is different from just now. Apart from the continuous demonstration animation, there are no real shots at all, and apart from various strange and irregular mysterious noises, there is not even a narration.
Already.
Ji Ma, who wanted to see if there were any aliens, changed the film again, but Wei Ran was pulled out of the conference room by Suisui, who wanted to go to the bathroom and was afraid of the dark. However, in less than five minutes, the bathroom was empty.
An exclamation came from inside!
Wei Ran, who was holding a flashlight outside, immediately shouted, "Suisui, what's wrong?"
"It's snowing outside!"
Suisui rushed out of the bathroom, grabbed Wei Ran and ran in without saying a word. Pointing to the light leaking gap in the cement-sealed glass window, she said, "Look out!"
Wei Ran brought his eyes closer and looked out through the gap that was only the size of a brick. In less than two hours, there was already heavy snow falling outside, enough to block his sight!
"Go back to the conference room first!" Before Wei Ran finished speaking, he pulled Suisui and ran out of the bathroom and rushed into the conference room not far away.
"Don't look for aliens yet!" Wei Ran said, holding up a flashlight, "It's snowing outside, very heavy snow!"
"Is it snowing?" Alili and Jima immediately realized something was wrong and rushed out of the dark conference room in no particular order.
When they returned to the first floor and opened the heavy iron door, huge snowflakes were immediately blown in by the strong wind.
"Can the plane take off now?" Wei Ran squinted his eyes, raised his arms to block the snowflakes blowing on his face, and asked in a high voice.
"It's too dangerous!" Alili responded in the same voice, "We need to move the supplies on the plane in immediately. There will be a snowstorm soon!"
"Suisui, stay here!" Wei Ran shouted over his shoulder. Without waiting for the latter to reply, he bent down and rushed out following Alili and Jima.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Braving the strong wind mixed with a lot of snowflakes, the three of them moved with difficulty to the side of the plane that seemed to be floating at any time, and waited for Alili to open the cabin door.
, immediately got in and started carrying supplies downwards.
Fortunately, they had taken precautions against possible snowstorms before coming, so they were extremely well-prepared for food, drink, and other supplies, and even brought an extra foldable sled.
Thanks to this small sleigh, the three of them only made two trips to get everything into the building.
When Alili and Jima closed the iron door and the wooden door inside properly, the manic wind outside immediately became inaudible, but after a while, the snow that was blown into the lobby on the first floor was enough to cover the feet.
.
"Jima, didn't you say you read the weather forecast and the snowstorm won't come for two or three days?" Wei Ran asked while letting Suisui help him shake the snow off his body.
"Um..." Jima said awkwardly, "I was looking at the weather in Inta..."
Alili was stunned when he heard this, then shook his head and smiled bitterly. Inta is to the west of the Ural Mountains, and they are now located to the east of the Ural Mountains. In other words, the weather in Inta hundreds of kilometers away has nothing to offer them.
A place for reference!
Knowing that he had done something stupid, Ji Ma took the initiative to carry the two heaviest barrels of kerosene, and said awkwardly as he walked up, "How about we go look at those films? Maybe the snow will stop after watching them.
.”
"I would rather find an alien and capture you idiot."
Alili cursed angrily, and then said apologetically to Weiran and Suisui, "Sorry, it seems you have to stay here for a while."
Wei Ran didn't care. He had nothing to worry about in the first place. He just didn't know if there was anything urgent about Suisui.
Seeing Wei Ran and Alili looking at her, Suisui immediately waved her hands happily and said, "It doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry to go back."
In this case, everyone felt at ease, each carried some supplies and went upstairs. The four of them went back and forth five or six times. When they moved everything to the conference room where the film was just shown, Jima
A window blocked by bricks and cement has also been opened, and the situation outside can barely be seen.
In addition to being surprised by the violent storm outside, everyone was also surprised by the construction quality of this building. Although it has been abandoned for so many years, the doors and windows are surprisingly well sealed, so that even if you get close to the only one, you can see
There was no sound of wind in front of the windows outside.
And the more this happened, the more obvious it hinted at the importance of this observatory originally stationed by the Soviet military. At the same time, Wei Ran couldn't help but think about what a tourist attraction it would be once Jima and Alili turned it into a tourist attraction.
May cause trouble later.
But there is little point in thinking about these things right now. How to survive the blizzard outside the window is the most important thing.
After a short break, the four people placed the brought supplies on the conference table one by one. Suisui took her mobile phone and said, "There are 80 liters of kerosene for heating and power generation, two large boxes of various vegetables and canned meat, and vodka."
, there are also a large box each of condensed milk and leba, and there are two kerosene heaters. Alili, why do you bring so many things on the plane?"
"They are all prepared by the patrol team."
Alili explained honestly, "We often encounter this kind of bad weather in winter. Sometimes we have to find a place to land outside and wait for several days before we can find a chance to fly back. In addition to this, there is a lot of spare fuel on the plane.
, enough for us to last for half a month without any problem."
Wei Ran looked at the supplies on the table and felt at ease, "In that case, what should we have for dinner?"
"Let's make do with cans first."
While talking, Alili picked up a small stainless steel pot and said, "I'll go downstairs to get some snow. You can go to other rooms now to look for anything you can use to burn. I don't know when this snow will stop. Those
It’s better to use kerosene sparingly.”
"While the snow is not too heavy, I will go to another building to have a look!"
Ji Ma, who had been looking out of the window, picked up the rifle on the table while speaking, "I just saw some animals running into that building. Maybe we don't have to just eat canned food at night."
"Do you need me to go with you?" Wei Ran asked, who had already walked out of the conference room with Suisui.
"No, I can handle it by myself."
Ji Ma was eager to make up for his mistake. Without saying a word, he grabbed a gun and caught up with Alili who was walking downstairs. Only Wei Ran and Suisui were left looking at each other in the dark corridor.
