Chapter 24 (Page 1/1)

The 2,000 disabled people in this prestigious hall are all young adults who have been deliberately screened out, and the youngest of them, He Zhiyang, is only 19 years old and has completely lost his legs.

At this moment, the iron-gray mechanical prosthetic at the base of the thigh is on the top, and the slightly curved and slightly upturned sole support at the bottom should be on the ground, which is extremely weak and pitiful.

But just now, when everyone stood and saluted in unison, his movements were not slower than others.

……………

He Zhiyang was less than half a year after joining the army, because he participated in an emergency rescue work after the disaster, and his legs were broken by huge stones in the aftershock.

Before that, he, like all recruits, had a pampered past and was pampered by his family.

It's a pity that he was tempted into the army by hot-blooded slogans for a while, and when he cried his father and asked his mother to hide in the toilet and eat secretly every day, he regretted his impulsiveness countless times.

God stepped on a horse and did not serve as a soldier, and regretted it for the rest of his life......

When he was trained to shed a layer of skin, he regretted it for the rest of his life......

However, it was such an ordinary stupid boy who could no longer be ordinary, just an adult, in that disaster that shocked the whole country, until he was dug out of the ruins, in his arms, he still hugged the little girl who was rescued by him at the beginning, and he didn't let go of shock.

Everyone who knew him well didn't know how he persevered.

………………

Because at that time, he was lying on his stomach on the collapsed ground and stretched out his arm to the girl trapped underneath. However, at the moment when he held the palm of the other party's hand, the beam of the house was once again collapsed by the aftershock.

The aftershocks were not large, lasting only a minute. But this minute is enough for many, many people to despair.

——The huge stone fell down directly, and He Zhiyang's instinctive reaction at that moment was to violently retract the arm that was holding the other party's arm, put his hands together, and hugged the other party in his arms!

The little girl curled up in his arms obediently, her hairy head pressed against his belly, and her body was encircled by his iron pincer-like arms, which was extremely reassuring.

And the support point under her feet, after the aftershocks stopped, had collapsed again, obliterated by the rubble.

The two of them hung in the middle of the air for an hour.

…………………

That hour seemed to have consumed his life's energy, and until now, he has not been able to take a break.

Now, with his new prosthesis, his body still hasn't fully recovered. Phantom limb pain still tormented him all the time.

When he helplessly endured the pain and waited for help that would come at an unknown time, he did not regret it.

But no matter how much he regretted it, the girl in his arms was still hugged by him.

This is the most glorious moment in He Zhiyang's life so far.

It was also the most painful moment.

He will always remember that when he woke up from the hospital bed, his mother was old and haggard, broken and proud.

…………………

At this moment, when the paramedics delicately removed his prosthetic leg, the familiar phantom limb pain struck again.

He subconsciously clenched the armrest of his chair.

- The so-called phantom limb pain is not only experienced by depressed patients, but more often occurs in disabled people like him.

Because they are not born with disabilities, but are the result of acquired trauma, many people subconsciously do not accept that they have lost a part of their physical body.

This subconscious reaction to the nerves, like him, can feel his lost leg every day, and it is still painful.

Although the cause of phantom limb pain is not only psychological, but also caused by various pathological causes such as cortical reorganization, in his case, it is indeed only a psychological effect.

The pain was sometimes severe, sometimes mild, and he, since he became a waster, had learned to endure it.

……………………

"Come, relax."

Although the paramedics didn't know what was wrong with him, they could still sense his tense state and whispered comfort at the moment.

"You can rest assured that we have been trained in the loading of robotic limbs and will definitely get you used to it as quickly as possible."

In fact, the loading of the robotic limb is very simple, and the training is even easier. The most they learn is how to adjust the parameters and how to adapt to the parameters that are different from the regular version.

"Trust us, after today, you'll be back to your old life."

He swore a promise.

I don't know if his soft and slow voice played a role, or was infected by this inexplicable solemn atmosphere, the young and thin He Zhiyang was stunned, and then slowly relaxed his limbs.

The pain or something, it doesn't seem to be very difficult to endure at this moment.

"Click."

The box was opened in front of him.

………………

Before coming, they all had a comprehensive physical examination, and the corresponding box in front of each person at this moment was the parameter setting that most matched them.

Although there will not be much increase in the early stage, as the body slowly adjusts in the future, these values will also change accordingly.

On the snow-white sterile cloth, two curled up mechanical legs and feet were lying there quietly, filling the small box to the brim.

At this time, He Zhiyang realized that in this row, only the box in front of him was larger than the others.

It should be because I have more broken parts than others...... I don't know if the same situation will happen in the future.

The silver-white mechanical leg had been gently stretched in front of him, and he looked back with patience, carefully studying what was about to fit on him.

At this moment, even if he wasn't really excited, he couldn't help but have some thoughts.

- A mechanical limb that is treated so solemnly by everyone, he should ...... You can look forward to it.

The silver-white mechanical limbs were taken out and unfolded by the nursing staff one by one, which looked quite weighty, but they could be lifted with one hand, and they should not be particularly heavy.

He Zhiyang frowned, and quickly let go again.

After all, with his current weak body, if the mechanical limbs were heavier, it would be more difficult to move, and the burden on him would be great.

……………

Still, despite this, he gradually looked forward to it more and more.

Because so far, even if he saw it with the naked eye, he could see that the precision of this mechanical limb was very different from the crude and simple one he had loaded before.

On the top, the smooth lines of the alloy plate were slightly popped out and retracted under the touch of the nursing staff, as if countless fish scales were moving, more vivid and soft.

And He Zhiyang saw it at this time and knew that this seemingly a whole piece of smooth legs and feet was actually composed of dense parts one by one, but just looking at their smooth appearance, it was difficult to imagine the craftsmanship in it!

One after another, the alloy sheets were combined, and finally returned to a silvery-white smooth whole, as if the movement of the fine parts just now was just an illusion.
