What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Little Apple and Li Yang came over early the next morning by bus, but the father and daughter visited the zoo first, and arrived at Xiang Kun's house after 11 o'clock.

Xiang Kun, who was wearing an apron and preparing lunch, welcomed the two of them into the house, and said with a smile, "You guys are shopping so fast!"

The bus they took arrived at the city station at 9:00, and then took a taxi to the zoo. The time on the road, the time to buy a ticket to enter the gate, and the time to take a taxi to his home after getting out were deducted. for about 1 hour.

Li Yang, who was still dark-skinned and had a crew cut, looked like an old farmer, smiled and said: "We mainly visited a few bird areas, but many birds don't sing very much, so there is nothing 'worth seeing'. "

Xiang Kun also understood that "Little Apple" went to the zoo not to "look" at the animals, but to listen to the sounds. If there were no chirping sounds, it would really be meaningless.

Today, Little Apple didn't wear sunglasses. Xiang Kun could see that her eyes were not different at first glance, and they could even be said to be beautiful. I should be in the first or second year of high school. It is the age when I secretly play with my mobile phone in class, play with the computer after school, go shopping with friends for snacks, and go home to watch variety shows and chase idols.

Xiang Kun had talked with Professor Li Yang before. He originally sent Little Apple to a school for the blind. There was a very good school for the blind in their city, but after graduating from junior high school, Little Apple didn’t want to go to the school for the blind anymore. , Systematically learn the knowledge she is interested in.

So Li Yang hired an aunt to take care of her daily life at home. As for the problem of learning, in addition to Li Yang's guidance, with the help of the auxiliary voice function of various electronic devices, she can already proficiently find herself through the Internet. required information.

As soon as he entered the room, after greeting Xiang Kun, Little Apple raised his chin slightly, and then walked over to where Canary "Golden Sparkling" was.

Xiang Kun's living room was very empty, and the dining table was not on her way, so Little Apple walked all the way to the table with the birdcage in the corner without hindrance.

"Xiang Kun, the layout of your house... is quite suitable for the blind people." Li Yang said jokingly.

Naturally, Xiang Kun knew what he meant. There was almost no furniture and no obstacles in the house. He looked naked, and said with a smile, "It hasn't been long since I moved here. You guys are playing in the living room first, and I will continue to cook."

Little Apple reached out and touched the outside of the birdcage lightly. Li Yang, who walked to the side, was a little strange, and asked almost everyone who came to Xiang Kun's house and saw the birdcage. close?"

But this time it was Little Apple who answered: "'Golden Sparkle' is loyal to Uncle Xiang,

Even if you open all the doors and windows in the house, it will not escape. "

Li Yang couldn't help laughing: "It's still loyal, did you 'read' it from its cry?"

Little Apple giggled: "If you can make such delicious bird food, it can also be loyal to you."

Just as he was talking, the canary in the cage chirped twice, then jumped out of the cage two or three times, stood by the table and tilted his head to "look" at Little Apple.

Li Yang was next to him and described the canary's posture in a low voice. He knew that with his daughter's hearing, she must have known the canary as soon as it came out of the cage, and could accurately judge the location of the canary. But her hearing couldn't tell her what kind of posture and movements Canary was in now.

Little Apple didn't speak, and stood still, as if listening attentively.

After a while, she slowly stretched out her hand, reaching for the location of "Golden Sparkling".

Miraculously, "Golden Sparkle" not only did not run away, but instead leaned a little closer, tilted her neck, let her hands gently stroke her feathers, narrowed her eyes, and showed a very relaxed posture.

If Tang Baona and Yang Zhener were here, seeing this scene, they would probably be so jealous that they would hang up "Jin Shining" and ask loudly, why did Mi ignore them and refuse to come out of the cage? ?

Xiang Kun still cooks four dishes and one soup at noon, because he has never eaten with Li's father and daughter before. When he asked them about their taste on WeChat, Li Yang just said that it should not be too spicy. So he can only make a rough judgment based on the taste of the area where they have lived for a long time.

"Uncle Xiang, do you have any other pets?" Before eating, Little Apple asked Xiang Kun who came out with the food.

"It's a rabbit, a Belgian rabbit, but you'd better not look at it, because I raised it for food." Xiang Kun said, and then said to Li Yang: "I'm going to cooperate with my friends to open a restaurant, specializing in rabbit meat. Recently, I have been researching various ways of making rabbit meat. Come, Professor Li, try it.”

Although Xiang Kun had just opened the doors and windows to let in the wind and cleaned the rabbit cage earlier, there was still a bit of a smell, which was normal for people with a sensitive sense of smell.

"Oh." Little Apple doesn't have any particular aversion or rejection towards eating rabbit meat.

Unsurprisingly, both father and daughter were full of praise for Xiang Kun's craftsmanship. Although there is no way to adjust it according to their taste, he has cooked several dishes many times, so there is naturally a basic level.

"It's the first time I've eaten rabbit meat, and I didn't expect it to taste so delicious." Li Yang nodded and praised while serving the little apple, "This craftsmanship is really good enough to open a restaurant. At least after I eat it, I will definitely still eat it Will be a repeat customer."

Chatting while eating, Xiang Kun told Little Apple about some interesting things about raising "Golden Sparkle", and how he judged its mood based on "Golden Sparkle"'s voice, posture, movements, etc., and said some "Golden Sparkle" habits and bad bugs.

Then, from "Golden Sparkle" to the chirping of other birds, and the living habits of birds, this is also the knowledge that Little Apple has been learning since graduating from junior high school.

Then I also followed this topic, from the impact of changes in the number of intestinal microorganisms in certain birds on their feeding habits, to the topics that Li Yang is currently participating in, and to the daily application examples of some microbial research, etc.

This meal made the father and daughter eat very well and chat very happily. I just feel that eating with Xiang Kun is really a very happy thing. Not only does Xiang Kun cook delicious food, but also it is very comfortable to chat with him , I feel that I can always be motivated to talk about sex, and as long as I feel a little tired, or I don't want to talk about this topic, Xiang Kun can take over the conversation just right, or lead to the next topic.

Xiang Kun also felt very happy chatting - except that he had to fight against the two "lively" stones in his stomach.

After eating, Little Apple wanted to take "Golden Sparkle" out for a stroll, so Xiang Kun took the father and daughter to the place not far from the community where people often take a walk.

Seeing Little Apple sitting on a stone chair beside the artificial lake with a birdcage, Xiang Kun and Li Yang stood chatting not far away.

It was not until today that Xiang Kun knew that Little Apple's real name was Li Jun, a name that sounded quite masculine at first glance.

Little Apple's mother died unexpectedly not long after she was born. Little Apple is not blind from birth, but blind from birth, and is completely blind without being able to perceive light.

But regarding the cause of blindness, Li Yang took his daughter to see many experts, but they couldn't give a very definite statement. With the current level of technology, there is basically no possibility of recovery or cure.

If it is acquired blindness, for example, the cornea is damaged in adults, and then the vision is restored through corneal transplantation or other methods, there is no problem.

But if it is congenital blindness, especially total blindness, if it needs to be treated after adulthood, it will not only "repair" the "photosensitive elements" and "transmission elements" such as eyeballs, fundus retina, and visual pathways, but also involve the cerebral cortex The visual area of ​​the brain, the large number of complex, interconnected neurons, is an area that humans have not yet fully grasped.

When we "see" something, we don't just "see" with our eyes. It is our brain that finally forms the external light and shadow into a cognitive picture in our mind.

When human beings are infancy, the corresponding visual nerves need to be continuously stimulated by external information to establish visual experience and three-dimensional cognitive ability.

Otherwise, after adulthood, even if the "photosensitive element" and "transmission element" are restored, without a corresponding and perfect "processor" and "processing software", normal visual ability will still not be obtained.

For example, it is impossible to distinguish distance and near by vision, and what you see is two-dimensional images, so you cannot establish three-dimensional cognition. You can distinguish colors and shapes, but you cannot make correct cognitions for slightly more complex combinations, such as human faces. Like a combination of a bunch of weird components.

Even when originally blind, through hearing or other training, with a certain amount of action and judgment ability of normal people, the sudden recovery of vision destroys the original cognitive system, becomes at a loss, and the brain falls into chaos.

After hearing Li Yang's words, Xiang Kun looked at the demure girl sitting on the stone chair with a smile in the distance, and suddenly felt a little panicked.

A child who likes nature and birds is doomed to never see the existences she likes with her own eyes. Thinking about it makes people feel a little hopeless.

Li Yang sighed and said: "Maybe in the future when technology develops to a certain level, we have enough understanding of the human brain, with higher technology and more advanced equipment, we can really cure Little Apple's eyes. As for now, All I can do is do my best to keep her happy and healthy."

Originally, Li Yang's father and daughter were about to leave around three o'clock in the afternoon, but Xiang Kun called them back home and stayed for a while.

He took out one of the twelve minions carved yesterday and gave it to Little Apple, but because those wood carvings were originally only used as "experimental tools", they stopped when they reached the feeling of establishing a connection, and did not repeat it. Continue fine sanding, so the details are still a little rough.

In front of the Li family's father and daughter, he began to polish carefully with fine-grit sandpaper.

Knowing what the gift Xiang Kun gave, Little Apple was very excited. Although she couldn't see things, she liked to "watch" cartoons since she was a child, because there are often many funny and funny sound effects in cartoons, and she just listens to those sounds You can have a good laugh.

And when "Despicable Me" came out, she was particularly interested in the minion's voice, and her WeChat notification sound was the minion's magical laughter.

When Xiang Kun was sitting in the room polishing the little yellow man, Li Yang looked at the Alsace woodcarving and the eight-armed and eight-eyed woodcarving placed beside the computer desk, and he also admired in his heart: Xiang Kun is really versatile enough.

After more than an hour of fine polishing, he handed over the finished product to Little Apple. Seeing her carefully coiling the boxwood minion with her hands, perceiving the shape and touch, and squinting her eyes with joy, Xiang Kun also felt that Happy, there is a sense of comfort that can't help but raise the corners of the mouth.

Seeing his daughter's appearance, Li Yang patted Xiang Kun's shoulder and said softly, "Thank you."

Xiang Kun shook his head with a smile, and said: "When you are free in the future, you are welcome to bring Little Apple as a guest. Let me know in advance that I can buy vegetables and prepare ingredients. I will come back next time. I guarantee that the dishes I cook will be even better than today! "

"Haha, today's meal is already very good! Whenever you are free, come and play with us!" Li Yang laughed.

To be honest, he was a little worried before he came here today. Strictly speaking, after all, meeting Xiang Kun was just a ride for him. Although there were a few chats on WeChat later, there was nothing in-depth, let alone If you don't have a deep friendship, you don't really know each other very well.

But the daughter said with certainty that Xiang Kun was her good friend, and if he wanted to see the canary "Golden Sparkle", he could only bring his daughter along.

However, after a few hours of contact today, Xiang Kun's impression on Li Yang can be said to be very good - his greatest wish and motivation in this life is to make his daughter happy, and today can be said to be his daughter's life in the past few months. Had the best day ever.

After sending Li Yang's father and daughter away, Xiang Kun returned home, took another piece of boxwood wood from the cabinet, cut it to a suitable size, and began to mend twelve boxwood minions.

In fact, eleven is also fine. After all, he wants to test the effect of the "emotional injection" item. Eleven and twelve are actually similar, and they should not just reach the threshold.

But the number eleven somehow made him feel as if something was missing. Maybe it was because he originally wanted to carve the twelve zodiac signs, or maybe he originally carved twelve and he considered it as a whole by default, so after much deliberation. Or get another one to make up the number of twelve.

As for giving one of the little yellow men to Li Jun, the little apple, Xiang Kun's purpose is to try to use the "happy" emotion enshrined in the wood carving to try to influence her, and try to make her happy occasionally. dream.

After eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, Xiang Kun casually sensed the little yellow man, trying to activate the emotion-affecting function to guide the surrounding targets into dreams.

Then he was startled suddenly, and gained some perceptions that he had never had before...

Xiang Kun couldn't even figure out if he was watching the dream, because he couldn't see anything, but it wasn't the darkness with his eyes closed, but a kind of emptiness and nothingness that he couldn't describe.

Then he felt the emotion that didn't belong to him, the joy of being happy, cheerful, and smiling from ear to ear.

The conversation between two people came from his ears, from blurred to gradually clear, he could tell that it was the voices of two men, talking about cross talk.

He even knew which cross talk it was, he had heard it before, and he also knew that it was Miao Fu and Wang Sheng who said the cross talk.

Then he heard some clear birds singing in the sound of cross talk, these sounds are melodious and melodious, very pleasant, but it doesn't affect his listening to cross talk at all, just like a soft BGM, it fits very well and makes people listen Just a pleasure.

Xiang Kun clearly sensed the giggles of the "emotional person", and he immediately realized that this was indeed a dream, the dream of Little Apple.

It's just that her dream didn't have any pictures.

That feeling of nothingness, that feeling of "not being able to see", to be honest, shocked Xiang Kun a little bit, even far more shocking than the dream of seeing the frying pan before.

But as soon as he thought of this, Xiang Kun suddenly discovered that the nothingness in front of him didn't seem to be complete nothingness.

Inexplicably, he seemed to "see" something.

And those voices, whether they were talking about cross talk or the singing of those birds, seemed to be a little different from what he usually heard?
