Chapter 496 Yaoyao's Decision

Yuhang.

After more than half a year of adaptation and learning, Yang Yiyao has completely gotten used to living with the AVS system, and gradually, she has begun to add more data to the AVS signal transmission. Now what she can see is not pure black and white. It's a world with simplified colors.

Of course, there is still a long way to go for both her and Chen Li's AVS team to completely restore a real world. Fortunately, judging from the current progress, this road not too long.

In addition to Yang Yiyao, the experimental population of the AVS system has expanded to 30 people, six of whom are from urban villages near Yang Yiyao's home. After the light, they are actually secretly looking forward to the day when they can use the equipment.

Therefore, Chen Li gave them this opportunity—on the one hand, it was to expand the experimental samples of the equipment, and on the other hand, it was also a request from Yaoyao.

After the success of the AVS project, the superiors gave Chen Li a large amount of special funds to reward relevant personnel who had made significant contributions to the project. At that time, the other party unexpectedly refused.

She didn't want money—or rather, she didn't think she needed that much money.

She wanted those uncles and aunts who had taught her how to adapt to that dark world to see the light like her.

In this regard, her brother Yang Yijin naturally also supports it. Compared with Yang Yiyao, his idea is simpler:
He can earn money through his own efforts, but for these neighbors and friends who have helped them, it is likely to be only this time.

When will the price of AVS equipment drop to the point where they can afford it?

No one can make it clear.

Therefore, for this frightening young man with high spirits, he really didn't care that much about the large sum of money that Chen Li distributed to Yaoyao.

Ever since, the money was converted into equipment costs by the AVS project team, and 6 additional sets of equipment were customized, which were respectively adapted to the 6 blind people designated by Yaoyao.

Of course, Chen Li did not forget to force the purchaser to argue with the equipment supplier, he just squeezed a part of the price from the already extremely low price, and saved 10 yuan in the public account of the project team , intending to leave it to Yaoyao when she is going to college in the future.

Yaoyao doesn't know this point, if she knew, she would probably ask to exchange this money for equipment --- there are too many people she wants to help, and the process of screening the list is actually very painful.

However, she is happy at the moment. During this holiday, she is busy every day introducing how to use and imparting experience to big friends who have just used AVS equipment. In front of him, other adults who have lived for decades It was as if she had become a student again, and she herself had become an all-knowing teacher.

"Okay, that's all for today."

"After you go back, you have to study hard, don't be afraid of what you see, some things are fake."

"When I first started learning colors, I often saw monsters, but I was not afraid at all, because I knew it was fake."

"Later, I gradually lost sight of it—Uncle Chen told me that the human brain is very powerful. If you believe in something, it will always exist. If you don't believe it, it will disappear soon. gone."

The people around her nodded one after another. In their eyes, Yaoyao may be a black and white, two-dimensional image of a girl who seems to have jumped out of a comic book. Some are richer and three-dimensional, but some may be just a few simple strokes. line outline.

But this does not affect what they see in their hearts.

This little girl is probably one of the most tender memories they have ever encountered in their lives.

"Understood Teacher Yang, I will definitely work hard when I go back."

One of them replied with a smile, and for a while, everyone was liberated from the slightly serious "teaching process" before, and began to tease and chat with this little girl like a daughter.

"Yaoyao, Children's Day will be celebrated the day after tomorrow, so come to my house for dinner. I'll ask Aunt Xiao to cook for you whatever dish you want to eat."

Yaoyao hummed, and replied with some embarrassment:
"I'm not going, the second uncle asked me to go to his house for dinner."

"That's fine too! Your Auntie Xiao bought you a gift for Children's Day and will bring it to you tomorrow. Remember to ask your brother if he has any money at home today. If he has no money, remember to tell me, do you understand?"

The person who spoke was He Wu. He lost his sight due to a work-related accident seven years ago. Although he received some compensation, his family’s conditions were not good. Most people in the neighborhood knew his miserliness.

But for Yaoyao, he has always been full of pride——probably also a kind of simple emotion of repaying one's kindness.

"We're rich! I earned 5000 yuan last time I was interviewed, so don't worry about us!"

"Yaoyao is amazing!"

"That's right, I can support myself at a young age, much better than I was back then."

"Okay, okay, don't bother Mr. Yang, he told us that his mouth is dry all morning, hurry up and pour water, don't you have any eyesight!"

A group of people were making a fuss, pouring water and buying ice cream. He Wu, who had recovered better, saw that there were still vegetables in the refrigerator. When his hands were itchy, he decided to help Yang Yijin cut up all the vegetables for the evening, and waited for all the arrangements. When it was done, the floor of the house was swept again, and everyone dispersed one after another.

After getting clean, Yaoyao sat back on the sofa to rest for a while, sipping the watermelon juice she just bought, but thinking about other problems in her mind.

Just the night before, Uncle Chen said that there is a new experiment that will be launched soon, and he is the most suitable experimenter.

Uncle Chen didn't ask her to participate, nor did she tell her not to participate, but she could tell that Uncle Chen didn't want her to participate.

"Yaoyao, you have to think clearly, the danger of this project may be much greater than the danger of your AVS, because the amount of data transmission is too large."

"It's as if you are learning colors now, which is already very difficult, but if you want to participate in a new project, it is equivalent to you have to color what you see by yourself."

"Do you know what this means? It means that you are learning to appreciate a painting now, and the new project is to teach you how to draw."

This is what Uncle Chen said to her.

"But, isn't it great to learn how to draw?"

"...It's very powerful, but it's also very difficult--and there are dangers. For example, if you sharpen your pencil, you will scratch your hands. Saw many horrible hallucinations."

"Aren't you terrified of fire? At worst, probably at the very beginning, everything you see is on fire."

"I'm not afraid of fire anymore. I know what's real and what's not. I can tell the difference."

"Yaoyao, it's not something that can't be clearly distinguished, just like me, I also have things to be afraid of."

"For example, I am very afraid of snakes. I know that some snakes are not poisonous and will not bite me, but I am just afraid."

"Okay, you must discuss it with your brother, and Aunt Liu, you should also ask her opinion, she is your guardian, do you know?"

……

The watermelon juice in her hand had bottomed out, Yaoyao recovered from her memories, she thought for a moment, then suddenly took off the AVS device on her head, then stood up gropingly, trying to throw the garbage into the garbage in the dark bucket.

This is not an easy job. For almost a year, she has gotten used to the bright world. At this time, she needs to rely on her memory to regain the feeling of being blind, which is like starting from scratch for her.

Fear seized her again, she stumbled back and forth in the dark, and finally crouched down and crawled forward on the ground, her head was hit several times by tables and chairs arranged in a circle, finally finally I found the trash can in the kitchen.

Touch it with your hands, there is also the kitchen waste that He Wu just left after cutting vegetables, it is sticky and disgusting.

But at this time, she didn't feel disgusted, she just felt sad.

Uncle Chen said that the technology of this new project experiment can bring a lot of knowledge to people.

Just like those children living in the mountains, they may never see high-rise buildings, planes, trains, or the sea in their entire lives...
They were imprisoned in that barren land, just like their former selves, imprisoned in darkness.

They're... presumably another conceptual one, too, blind?

However, if this technology is successful, everyone will see the same things.

This new technology is their eyes, right?

Yaoyao fumbled again and climbed back to the sofa. She carefully wiped her hands on her trouser legs. After a moment of hesitation, she rubbed her hands on the sofa a few times. After confirming that there were no stains, she finally touched the AVS device beside her with satisfaction. , and put it back on his head.

As the embedded electrodes made contact with the contacts of the AVS device, Light returned to her world.

At this time, she had already made a decision in her heart.
