Chapter 13: The Memory of the Dandelion II

Yu Tao only felt a headache at first, he thought that the electric heater in the house was overheated, the air was not circulating, and it was stuffy, so he had a headache. After two days, he began to have a fever, cough, and became more and more unwell, but he still insisted on attending classes, and he was not a person who fell down easily.

However, after a few days, he continued to have a fever and became more and more uncomfortable. On the seventh day of his fever, he began to feel dizzy, so on this day he had to take a leave of absence and go back to the dormitory early in the afternoon to rest, but he still believed that his body was hard and he did not take medicine, and he thought that he would be fine after a good night's sleep.

But when he woke up the next morning, he realized he was wrong.

He opened his eyes, but he thought he was still in a dream.

Because he felt that his brain was dizzy, his body was gentle, and most importantly, his eyes were dark.

Yu Tao is blind.

He was admitted to the hospital.

In a single room in the ward, in a world where you can't see things, there is no one to talk to, and such days are lonely and depressing.

In addition to the medical staff, only Mr. He would visit Yu Tao in his ward once a day.

"Yu Tao, don't worry, we will definitely do everything we can to cure you!" Teacher He said resolutely and affirmatively.

"Thank you, teacher!" Yu Tao said, "What kind of disease do I have? Why am I blind? ”

"An allergic reaction to the soil and water, I believe the teacher will get better!" Teacher He encouraged him, "If you have any requirements, just tell the teacher!" ”

"Teacher!" Yu Tao was also polite, "I can't see, it's too depressing to be alone in the ward, can you change me to a ward with roommates?" ”

"This can't work, one patient per ward, this is the requirement above." Teacher He's tone changed and said, "But every day when you don't hang the bottle, I can ask the medical staff to accompany you to the downstairs courtyard of the hospital." ”

"Also, I have a set of carving utensils in my dormitory, which is a little hobby I usually have, can you please help me bring this set of utensils to the ward, so as to pass the time?"

"That's fine!" Teacher He said affirmatively.

Yu Tao is very grateful to Mr. He. He participated in the Dandelion Project, all with enthusiasm in his chest, but he participated in the program for half a year and cut off contact with his original classmates, and his friends were only a few classmates in his class, and now he is admitted to the ward, and other patients are also admitted to the ward, and the classmates who are not sick are in class, and the only ones who can talk to him every day are in addition to the medical staff who work, only Teacher He.

Teacher He did what he said, Yu Tao finished talking to him in the morning, and someone brought his carving tools to the ward in the afternoon. He hadn't tried blind carving before, but he had to try it now.

In fact, carving mainly depends on the work of the hands, and the hands are properly controlled, and it is possible to carve blindly. Yu Tao is alone in the ward, passing the time with carving, which sometimes allows him to forget the pain and panic caused by fever and blindness. And focusing on one thing can also calm people's minds.

Peace of mind is conducive to conditioning.

Teacher He also instructed the medical staff to help Yu Tao to the garden downstairs of the hospital every day to relax, but the execution of the medical staff was not very good.

The medical staff seemed to be busy with work, every morning for Yu Tao to hang the bottle, after the routine examination, if the weather is sunny and the temperature is not very low, they will help him downstairs, leave Yu Tao to sit down on the garden bench alone, put a small power charging electric heater next to the garden bench, and help him back to the ward when it is time for lunch, the medical staff seems to be too busy to sit with him and talk for a while.

And perhaps because of the cold weather, the garden downstairs of the hospital is rarely haunted by patient numbers, and usually only medical staff hurriedly walk by.

And for a blind person, it is better to come out and sit than to make him feel more comfortable in a closed and depressing ward. So he simply went out in the morning with a carving knife and carved blindly in the garden downstairs of the hospital.

After two weeks like this, Yu Tao's condition still did not improve much, he still had an occasional fever, and his eyes were still blind. But he likes to carve, his temperament is indifferent, and he is mentally prepared to not see things for the rest of his life.

On this morning, he carved a blind carving on a garden bench with a three-dimensional badge of a paper airplane taking off from the sea in wax - the emblem of Xijing Sanhang University of Science and Technology. He gently stroked the already well-defined semi-finished product with his hand, suddenly twisted his head and stopped the movement of his hand.

"You're a girl from Class 2?" Yu Tao couldn't see it, but he suddenly asked.

"You! You can? How do you know? A surprised female voice came from the direction Yu Tao was facing.

"I can't see it!" Yu Tao smiled faintly, "But I can smell the faint fragrance left by a girl after washing her hair." The medical staff here are wearing hats and smelling of disinfectant all over their bodies, so if I were a female doctor, I would have smelled a lot more disinfectant. In addition to the medical staff, the patients and their families can be present in the hospital. We are all students in the Dandelion Project, and we are not accompanied by family members, so it must be female students who can appear here. I'm in the first class, and there is no contact between the first and second classes, but the people in my class are very familiar with each other, and if you are my classmate, you will definitely know that I have a small habit of doing handicrafts, and I will not come to watch as a new thing, and even if I come to watch, I will definitely greet me. Judging by this, you must be a girl in the second class. ”

"You're so smart!" The girl's heartfelt admiration.

"Thanks for the compliment!" Yu Tao responded with a smile.

"Oh my God, you're carving the school crest?" The girl asked.

"Ahh If you can tell that I carved the school emblem, then it seems that I have practiced blind carving. Yu Tao was very happy.

"You're really amazing! Very well carved! The girl complimented.

"Are you also hospitalized?" Yu Tao asked naturally.

"Hey...... Be. The girl sighed, her tone less interesting than she had just been.

"Oops, don't be too pessimistic! You see, I'm blind, and I don't sigh as much as you do. You, what's the symptom? Yu Tao asked.

"You don't understand. I'm not lamenting my illness, I'd rather die if I wasn't rescued. ”

"Why is that?" Yu Tao was very curious.

"My boyfriend and I came to the Dandelion Project!" The girl said, "At first, he was reluctant to participate, but I insisted on signing up, so he couldn't sign up." We were both admitted, and we were both in the second class. However, his belief in serving the country was not firm, which made me very disappointed. ”

"How?" Yu Tao was puzzled.

"He came for me, and after he came, he always questioned this and that. I used to study electrical automation, he was from the Department of Mathematics of the Faculty of Science, but after I came, I asked students to study biology and chemistry, and I believed that there must be a reason for this arrangement, but he always said that there was a problem here, and he always questioned the arrangement of his superiors. He was always dissatisfied that the place was remote, there was no Internet and no signal, and he didn't know the specific meaning of the Dandelion Project. I've had a lot of fights with him about this! ”

"I don't like this kind of personality either. If you come to it, you will be safe, and if you can't change it, it's useless to complain. Yu Tao also doesn't like the character of this person in the girl's mouth.

"Then I suddenly fell ill, first with a fever and then with pain all over my body. Soon I was admitted to the hospital, and after an examination, it was said that I had blood poisoning and needed a blood transfusion. I needed a blood test before the blood transfusion, and this blood test was good, and I learned that my blood type was the rare AB type Rh Yin, which is the legendary panda blood. There was no such blood in the blood bank in the hospital, so it took me two days to transfer blood from another blood bank, and for the past two days, I almost died of blood poisoning. And in these most painful and dangerous days, only my cousin was by my side! The girl said, her voice a little aggrieved.

"Your cousin?" Yu Tao was puzzled.

"Well, yes, you shouldn't know, I'm He Xiaodong's cousin." The girl said.

"Are you Teacher He's sister?" Yu Tao was surprised. He didn't expect that Mr. He's cousin would also study at Xijing Sanhang Technical University and also come to participate in the Dandelion Project. But think about it, since it is Teacher He's sister, it is indeed reasonable to come to participate in the Dandelion Project.

"Yes, yes. It's nothing, the problem is, my boyfriend never came to see me during my most painful days! The girl's voice choked, and she was obviously crying.
