596 The Moon Falls

It's a pity that this one was blocked, but the other one was not.

Xu Pingyuan, who was in Xu Yue's arms, burst into tears.

The brother and sister's hair stood on end immediately, and they scrambled for a while before they calmed down the two children.

Xu Pingyuan cried so hard that he hiccupped and said, "I want to go home."

Xu Dongbei was more direct and directly called for his mother.

After leaving Youzhou for so long, this was the first time the twins shouted so fiercely to find their mother.

Xu Yue and Xu Dalang looked at each other, feeling distressed and helpless, so they had to take out the walkie-talkie, contact Xu Erniang, and ask her to coax the two babies personally.

"My dear little darlings, you can meet my grandma during the Chinese New Year."

Xu Erniang coaxed patiently on the other end of the intercom.

I just couldn't say a few more words and ended the conversation because something happened.

Fortunately, the twins' emotions had calmed down. Xu Yue comforted them and took them to see Xu Erniang in a few days. Only then did the two little guys agree to eat.

After all this trouble, it was already dark outside.

The two little babies lay on the warm quilts and fell into a deep sleep.

Brother and sister Xu Yue cleared the table lightly, added a handful of firewood to the stove to ensure that the kang would remain warm, closed the door and went outside.

A glass-shaded lamp was lit under the eaves, and its faint light dispelled the darkness in the courtyard.

As the cold wind blew, Xu Yue tightened the collar of her cotton-padded coat. Under Xu Dalang's expectant gaze, she waved her hand and took out a pre-stored solar light bulb from the research room.

It's a one-hundred-watt light bulb, about the size of half a football.

It is fully charged when redeemed, and does not need to be charged with a solar panel for the time being.

But Xu Yue didn't know exactly how many hours it could stay on.

So, let’s test it now.

"Should I open it?" Xu Yue asked her brother, her heart beating a little fast.

Eleven years later, she had almost forgotten the feeling of electric light.

Xu Dalang does not have such strong emotions. He can adapt to the darkness. Night is a paradise for hunting for him.

Because of the huge searchlights in the human base in his previous life, he even hated the dazzling heat.

But as long as my sister is happy.

Xu Dalang nodded, "Let's go."

Xu Yue took a deep breath, and under her brother's encouraging gaze, she pressed the switch of the solar light.

There was a soft "click" sound, which was inaudible in the howling cold wind. Then, in a "swish" moment, a dazzling white light lit up, and the whole yard was as bright as day!

The Ma family siblings who lived next door were getting ready to sleep when suddenly a white light came through the window, illuminating their dark room.

"What is this?"

The two siblings sat up in shock from their respective beddings. They should have been in darkness, but at this moment they could clearly see the panic look on each other's faces.

Glass windows have strong light transmittance, and in this era there is no light pollution caused by neon lights from street lights. People living in Xingfu Community have never thought about adding curtains to their windows.

Ever since, when Xu Yue turned on the light, the dazzling white light came on, illuminating all the surrounding rooms.

However, it was far away from Xu's courtyard, so the light was not that intense.

But in the darkness, compared to the brightness of the candlelight oil lamp, this white light completely covered the original light.

The whole room was covered with a layer of white soft light as if the moonlight was shining through it.

The furnishings in the house are clearly visible, and even the dust accumulated in the corners is clearly visible.

Xu Xiaoxing and Xu Mao heard the movement in Ma Yu's house and rushed in quickly.

My eyes were filled with silvery white. I raised my head and looked out the window, and saw a bright moon right in front of me.

"The moon fell from the sky?" This was the first thought that came to Xu Xiaoxing's mind and he blurted it out.

Before the children knew what danger was, Ma Yu and Ma Zhang had already climbed to the window, holding it open and looking in the direction of the moonlight.

It's a pity that because of the obstruction of the courtyard wall, nothing can be seen.

But one thing is for sure.

"It's the moonlight coming from the leader's courtyard." Ma Yu said excitedly.

Ma Zhang looked back at his master Xu Maozhen and asked innocently: "Did the moon really fall?"

Xu Mao and Xu Xiaoxing looked at each other, unable to answer this question.

"You watch them, I'll go over and take a look." Xu Xiaoxing hurriedly warned Xu Mao, turned around and walked out of the courtyard, rushing towards the leader's house next door.

Before reaching the front door of Xu's house, the neighbors all around came out, heading towards the luminous place.

"Miss Xiaoxing, your house suddenly lit up?" Sun Ashan asked nervously.

Xu Xiaoxing nodded, raised his head and looked at the light source together with Sun Ashan and others. In the night, a beam of white light lit up from the Xu family courtyard, spreading radioactively around, covering this small area of ​​​​the world.

They just stood outside the gate of Xu's house without lighting a torch or carrying a lantern, so they could clearly see the road and the surrounding houses.

Such a strong light is as illusory as a dream to the natives Xu Xiaoxing, Sun Ashan and others.

With a "squeak" sound, the Xu family door opened from the inside.

The light leaked out as the door crack opened and closed, illuminating the area in front of the door and clearly illuminating the horrified expressions of Xu Xiaoxing and others.

For Sun Ashan, such a bright light appearing in the dark night was a bit dazzling, so he subconsciously raised his hand to block it in front of his eyes.

It took me a while to get used to it.

"Come in if you want to take a look." Xu Dalang stepped back half a step, and his tall body cast a black shadow on the ground.

Sun Ashan, Xu Xiaoxing and others subconsciously took a breath before stepping into the courtyard.

I saw Xu Yue standing on a bench, holding a "moon" in her hand and tied it with a rope under the eaves.

The wind blew, the rope swayed, and Xu Yue's shadow also twisted. At first glance, it looked very strange.

Sun Ashan and others only took one step into the courtyard, and then they all stopped in tacit agreement.

Xu Yue clapped her hands, hung up the light bulb and jumped down from the stool. She turned around and smiled at the nervous and novel crowd and said:

"Don't be nervous, this is just a brighter light."

"Lamp?" Xu Xiaoxing asked doubtfully: "Chief, isn't this the moon?"

Xu Yue raised her hand and pointed to the sky. Although it was cold tonight, there was a thin crescent moon hanging in the sky, hiding in the clouds.

Everyone looked up and saw that the moon was still in the sky. They couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Gradually, they became less cautious and moved curiously into the courtyard. They gathered around the corridor and stared at the light bulbs.

"Don't look at each other, it will hurt your eyes."

As soon as Xu Yue's reminder sounded, Sun Ashan hissed, covered his eyes and turned away, rubbing them. His eyes were filled with tears and it stung a little, which was quite uncomfortable.

But it calmed down after a while.
