Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 438: test

Views:

At night, in an empty room.

A slightly magnetic man's voice came from a radio. Opposite it, a recording device was running quietly, and the sound of zizizi electric current sounded from time to time.

After the end of the "Tao and Electrical Maintenance" column, another two minutes later, a robot wearing a black military uniform with red eyes pushed the door and entered.

He listened to the recording in its entirety.

After doing this, Genova walked to another room diagonally opposite.

"How, what is Wu Meng talking about today?" Jiang Baimian asked.

Genova raised his right hand to his chin.

This is unknowingly imitating some of Shang Jianyao's postures.

"What is the spirit of electrical maintenance, and what a corporal hears, it is not enough to not laugh." Genova briefly repeated the main content, "But whether they can affect human beings, I have no way of distinguishing."

Jiang Baimian smiled and said:

"This requires us to experiment."

She led the rest of the "Old Tunes Group" into the place where the recording equipment was placed, closed the door, and looked around:

"Who's the first to try?"

She didn't lead by example, because she was worried about uncontrollable developments in the middle. In that case, she could use the violent high-voltage current to create a chaotic electromagnetic environment, interfere with subsequent changes, and block possible accidents.

Long Yuehong glanced at Shang Jianyao, then looked at Bai Chen, gritted her teeth and said:

"Let me do it."

In his opinion, Shang Jianyao has a fairly strong awakening ability. Once affected, it will cause great damage. Bai Chen is a woman and is not as tall as himself, so let her be an experiment to show herself. Timid, cowardly, without grace.

"Okay, be careful." Jiang Baimian didn't stop him.

She, Shang Jianyao and Bai Chen quickly blocked their ears with different methods, and only looked at Long Yuehong.

- Compared with the two team members who either wore full-face headphones or plugged their ears with paper balls, Jiang Baimian's method was the easiest, and that was to raise his palm and cover his cochlea.

Seeing that his companions were all ready, Genova turned on the recording equipment.

Long Yuehong sat upright and listened to the recording:

"...Electrical appliances are both simple and sophisticated. Simple refers to the Tao on which they depend. There are only a few fundamental principles. Precision refers to those principles that have evolved into various laws and thousands of combinations, which are intricate and wonderful...

"... When we repair electrical appliances, we must not only grasp the Tao, but also use the Tao to understand the laws and combinations. Only in this way can we see at a glance where the problem is and how to repair it...

"… For the repairers who have heard our radio, repairing electrical appliances is an art and a practice of Taoism. Ordinary people can't understand this. They either think it's too complicated, they don't understand it at all, or they think there's no such thing. It is necessary, and I believe in some experience products, just like when you say to a person who doesn't know much about electrical appliances, "your TV has a lot of problems and needs to be repaired as soon as possible", he will often answer you, "just take a picture of it" ', if one click is not enough, then two...

"As the saying goes: the superiors hear the Tao, and they practice it diligently; the middle-level scholars hear the Tao, and if they survive, they will die; the inferiors hear the Tao and laugh at it, but not laughing is not enough for the Tao... (Note 1)

"So, we must remember that when facing things we don't understand, we must ask for advice with an open mind, we must let go of the prejudice brought about by our experience, and we must not be full of resistance from the beginning, and we must learn and understand with an open-minded attitude. , to grasp, to accept…”

Long Yuehong nodded slightly when she heard it, feeling that no matter what, Wu Meng was still very good at speaking the truth.

By the time he finished listening, a long time had passed.

Jiang Baimian, Shang Jianyao, and Bai Chen, who were prompted by him and Genova, successively lifted the restrictions on hearing.

"I don't think it was affected." Long Yuehong first gave her own feelings, and then focused on Wu Meng's words.

Shang Jianyao suddenly laughed, and snapped off a lamp on the table.

Then, he said to Long Yuehong:

"look:"

Hearing this starting word, Long Yuehong's brows suddenly wrinkled.

Shang Jianyao continued on his own:

"This desk lamp is off, and Wang Fugui's old computer also had the keyboard light off because of a malfunction;

"This lamp is an appliance, and that old computer is an appliance;

"Afterwards, that old computer just got shot twice, so..."

Long Yuehong's wrinkled brows gradually stretched, he stood up abruptly, walked to the lamp, stretched out his right hand, and slapped the lamp holder.

After three consecutive shots, he woke up:

The light switch has been pressed, and no matter how much you shoot it, it won't light up!

Long Yuehong turned her head to look at Shang Jianyao, and said slightly angrily:

"You used 'reasoning clown', of course it worked!"

Shang Jianyao raised his hand and touched his chin, smiled and said:

"I just adopted the language format of 'reasoning clown', which is really useless at all."

"..." The expression on Long Yuehong's face froze.

"Really?" he asked again reluctantly.

Shang Jian Yao sternly replied:

"You don't need to be so formal to lie to you."

Jiang Baimian nodded:

"It seems that it is indeed affected. The key point should be the phrase 'when facing things you don't understand, ask for advice with humility'. It makes you blindly let go of all your past experiences and lose the ability to filter other people's words. , only know to accept it in its entirety.”

"It can still be like this..." Long Yuehong suddenly woke up and was quite frightened.

At this time, Shang Jianyao looked at him and said:

"You said you wanted to invite me to drink ice Coke. There are only a few places in the Red Giant Wolf District to buy it."

Long Yuehong was stunned at first, and then blurted out:

"When did I promise you!"

"Hey, the ability is invalid." Shang Jianyao sighed deeply.

Long Yuehong was dumbfounded for a while.

Seeing this, Bai Chen took the initiative to ask Ying:

"I'll try it next time to see if that sentence is working."

After all, if you want to use it as a "weapon", you must select the sentence with additional abilities in it. Otherwise, when the two sides are fighting, you can't let the other side patiently listen to the "Tao and electrical maintenance" for more than half an hour, right

Jiang Baimian thought about it and said:

"Let's try it out. He was hit last time. You can evaluate the difference between the effect after recording and the effect of listening to the broadcast directly. Also, come back a few more times to confirm how the effect will decrease as the number of playbacks increases. ."

The team leader is so professional, as expected of a researcher... Long Yuehong was stunned inwardly.

Everyone was born and died together for such a long time, and the team members basically knew that Jiang Baimian had broken ears. Before joining the Security Department, she was doing research work and her goal was to become a scientist. As for which aspect, she did not mention it.

When everyone else blocked their ears, Shang Jianyao chose that sentence and listened to it again:

"So, we have to remember that when faced with things we don't understand, we should ask for advice with an open mind..."

After he finished, Long Yuehong took off the full-cover earphones and said tentatively:

"I'm your brother."

Shang Jianyao was stunned for a moment and opened his mouth.

The next second, his slightly dazed expression twisted into a smile:

"Hahaha, he is so short, how can he be our brother?"

Hey... Long Yuehong feels insulted.

Shang Jianyao changed his expression again and said solemnly:

"There is the possibility of a genetic mutation."

"Don't believe it blindly, do a genetic test first."

"There are dreams everywhere, why take it seriously?"

Several businessmen quarreled for a while, and soon came to the conclusion that they were affected by the recording, and got rid of that state.

He put on a professional posture and said:

"The effect is much weaker than what I heard from Leiman last time, but it is enough to affect the Awakened in the 'Sea of Origin', as long as they don't have a special price to counter it.

"As for whether it can affect the Awakened at the level of the 'Spiritual Corridor', I haven't stepped out of the 'Sea of Origin', so I can't judge. I can only say that even if it can, the effect will definitely be weak."

After the trial and error of Shang Jianyao, the law of attenuation has also been explored:

Attenuates between 15 and 18 percent of the original each time.

That is to say, a recording can be used six to seven times, and the effect is worse every time.

And now there are only one or two recordings left.

In this regard, the "Old Tune Group" doesn't care too much. After all, Wu Meng broadcasts "Tao and Electrical Repair" every day, even if he does not exert his ability to influence the audience every time, at most every few days.

As a result, the "Old Tune Group" can be recharged regularly, and it often has different effects.

"Even if it can't be used to deal with the master of the 'virtual world', it may have miraculous effects in other aspects." Jiang Baimian sighed with satisfaction.

She immediately reminded the team members:

"I often walk by the river, how can I not get wet shoes

"I'm worried that in Wu Meng's subsequent broadcasts, there will be more than one sentence that can affect the audience. Let's ignore some of the influences, and it's too tiring and time-consuming to check each sentence, so try to save it as much as possible and don't rely on it."

"Okay." The members of the "Old Tunes Group" began to investigate other words in this recording.

After confirming that there are no other problems, the night is already deep, and everyone is mentally exhausted.

"Huh..." Jiang Baimian sighed and laughed at himself, "It's a pity that I couldn't induce Wu Meng to say what I wanted. I think it's too risky to send him a telegram..."

Shang Jianyao thought for a few seconds and said:

"You can ask Xiaochong next time. It would be better if you can meet Mr. Du Heng."
