Chapter 2013 Buying Candles and Meeting a Proud Girl (1)
One master and two servants were walking on the street, looking at the bustling streets and the endless flow of people. Mengyu felt a little emotional. She fell into this different space. There was no distinction between day and night, no sun, moon and stars. What kind of space was it?
Woolen cloth?
What conditions are required to leave this space?
Suddenly, she noticed that many people were buying food on the street, and some were buying a white thing as long as an adult's forearm, which looked like an enlarged candle.
She was a little strange, so she pointed at those people and asked Xiaohong: "Look at those people, what are they buying?"
Moreover, I bought so many!
Xiaohong looked at Mengyu strangely: "Those people are buying candles."
"Candles? The candles here are like this." Mengyu was even more surprised. This space only has day and no night. Why buy candles?
Xiaohong knew that the owner had moved here from another place, and thought that the candles in their place were different from hers, so she continued: "Yes, the candles here are all white, unlike the candles in Fucheng, which are white.
It would look nice with some red."
Xiaonian pretended to be an adult: "Time flies so fast, it won't be long until nightfall."
Mengyu's heart was beating wildly: She thought there was no night here, only daytime, but who knew that there was also a night sky!
Moreover, looking at the amount of candles these people buy, the night is still very long!
She remembered one thing, there are also places on the earth that have half a year of day and half a year of night: on the summer solstice, the Arctic Circle and its north are polar day, and the Antarctic Circle and its south are polar night; on the winter solstice, the Arctic Circle and its regions are polar night.
Polar night is in the north, polar day is in the Antarctic Circle and south of it
Could it be that this space is also such a place?
"Ye Tian Tian? Xiaohong, tell me, how many days of candles should we prepare?" Mengyu asked.
"The night is so long, we must prepare more candles." Xiaohong turned to Xiaonian: "Brother, tell me, how many candles should we prepare?"
"A candle can be lit for six hours. There is no need to light candles when it is dark at the beginning. If you use them when you need to light candles, you will need to buy about 120 candles. If you need to use candles at the beginning of the day, minus sleeping
time, it’s better to buy 160 candles.”
Mengyu did some mental calculations, and according to Xiaonian's statement, that meant Ye Tian had half a year.
I don’t know, how long are the days here?
She seemed to ask Xiaohong unintentionally: "Xiaohong, how many days have you passed?"
Xiao Hong replied: "Twelve. I am twelve years old this year. When this night passes, I will be thirteen."
"Oh." Mengyu thought about how to ask the time without making the two of them suspicious: "Do you think the days are longer or the nights are longer?"
Xiaohong smiled: "Master, the day is as long as the night."
Mengyu almost cursed in her heart, the day and night here are actually concentrated. And, it’s just that the night in the real world is not that long, but the night here actually takes up half of the time?
Xiao Nian said: "Xiao Hong, of course the day is longer. Because, the first hundred hours when the night sky just entered was just a little dim, there was no need to light candles at all, and there were a hundred half-dark and half-white ones.
Hours can be lit or not. In addition, from night to day, there are also a hundred hours that can be lit or not. Although a hundred hours are a bit dim, there is no need to light candles at all.
So, in total, you don’t need to light candles most of the time, and you only light candles a quarter of the time!”
Seeing Xiaonian looking at herself while talking, Mengyu knew that Xiaonian was showing off.
