When the clock on the wall chimed ten o'clock, Zhang Shimin finally stood up and went back to get the wooden bull pendant.
Filled with questions, I couldn't sleep for a long time. Perhaps it was because of the wooden ox, but the night was peaceful.
The next day, I went to work with the day shift with a panda eye. At the turn of duty, I occasionally heard the security guards of the day shift talking about the accident that happened last night.
Like I said, with Liu Jie's personality, not to mention me falling asleep, even if I fainted, he would have woken me up and asked me to change shifts.
However, when I flipped to the record for yesterday's shift, ready to fill in the record for last night's shift, I saw Liu Jie's name impressively written on the record for yesterday's shift! Last night's shift, he actually handed it over to me!
He didn't expect Liu Jie to appear so fierce on the surface, but he was actually not a bad person.
As I thought about it, I decided to visit him at the hospital.
After asking which hospital Liu Jie was in, I went straight out the front door of the watchtower, but just as I reached the entrance to the construction site, I suddenly felt the world spin around me.
Even though my mind was clear, the sight before me turned dark. Following which, the ear-piercing sound of a car brakes drove my nerves!
The roar of the machine was obviously coming at me, but I couldn't see the situation clearly!
The ear-piercing engine sounds are getting closer and closer, but I'm as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, completely at a loss of what to do!
Suddenly, someone pushed me from the left and pushed me out of the way. I staggered and directly pounced towards the right. My head also hit something hard and my vision went dark before I fainted!
I didn't know how long I had been unconscious for. When I woke up, the sky had already darkened completely. What entered my eyes was the hospital's snow-white walls and Zhang Shimin's worried face.
Seeing me wake up, Zhang Shimin's tensed face relaxed. Her eyes started to water up. She threw herself at my chest and started to cry!
Even though I do have a good impression of her, we've only just met. Her current appearance makes me feel a little helpless.
After a long time, when her emotions stabilized, I finally learned what had happened in the morning from her.
Just as I thought, when it went dark in front of my eyes, a dump truck from the construction site lost control and crashed into me. Then one of the workers at the construction site saw me standing there, so he rushed over and pushed me away.
As a result, when I fell down, my head hit a cement block beside me and I fainted. The worker who saved me was sent flying a few meters away by the dump truck! Luckily, good people get a good reward. Although the worker who saved me was sent flying, he didn't injure his vital parts. His right foot only slightly fractured.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault, it's all my fault …"
At this point, Zhang Shimin started to sob, but I felt that her words were a little strange.
This was completely an accident. Even though it was indeed a little strange for my eyes to turn pitch black at that time, this matter had nothing to do with her at all!
Tuk, tuk, tuk …
Just as she was about to ask something, she heard a knock on the door. She was about to say something when she saw Elder Miao limping in, leaning on a walking stick.
The moment I saw Elder Miao's right foot, I immediately got excited. Just as I wanted to ask Zhang Shimin, I was immediately thrown far away.
For Elder Miao to act so righteously without any ties at all, this caused me to have the urge to cry!
Seeing that there was a new customer in the ward, Zhang Shimin was about to take her leave. As for me and her, we just got to know each other, so I didn't want to keep her.
After Elder Miao sat down, I directly expressed my thanks to him. As for him, he had a curious expression on his face as he looked at the wooden cow in my hand.
Seeing that Elder Miao wanted to take a look, I immediately took the wooden bull and passed it to Elder Miao.
Originally, Elder Miao had been observing the exquisite wooden cow with great interest. However, the moment he turned the wooden ox around, he immediately frowned.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but walk up to Elder Miao in confusion. However, when I saw the wooden ox turn around, I immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.
The originally delicate wooden cow had actually turned into a ferocious and malicious face from Elder Miao's turn!
"How can this be? Could it be that what they said was true? But why did this Wood Ox save me that night? "
For a moment, I felt like my brain was going to explode.
Seeing my strange expression, Elder Miao slowly put the wooden cow aside. "Who gave this to you?" How long have you been wearing it? "
After that, I told Elder Miao about the origins of the wooden bull, how it saved my life, how I ran into a ghost near Li Wen Yuan's house yesterday, and how it suddenly became pitch black this morning.
After hearing what I said, Elder Miao lowered his head as if he was deep in thought. After a long while, he raised his head and looked at me with a serious expression.
"Since you've already experienced so much, then, there are some things that I don't need to explain to you. I believe that you should know that they truly exist."
After saying that, Elder Miao looked at the door again to confirm that there was no one around before continuing, "This wooden ox, from my point of view, is some kind of vessel that resides in evil spirits. Aside from that particular ghost, other ghosts are indeed unable to get close to you. However, judging from what happened this morning, the owner of this wooden bull really does want your life! "
Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel a little helpless, "I don't have any money or color, so why would you want to harm me?"
"Some people want to kill someone, not because they have something on them, but because they want to use that person to achieve some kind of goal."
"You want to use me to achieve some sort of goal?"
"Yes, according to Li Wen Yuan's situation, although Liang Jia Jun was saved by the hospital, he has most likely been viciously murdered long ago." Furthermore, the next target of this Wood Ox is obviously you. "
At this point, I suddenly thought of the two insurance people I had met yesterday.
Could it be that someone placed a huge amount of insurance on us? As long as we have an accident, the person behind the scenes will reap a lot of benefits? The insurance company also realized that there was something fishy about Li Wenyuan's death, so they sent someone to investigate?
Elder Miao saved my life, so I naturally believed in his words. If what I thought was true, then this wooden bull definitely couldn't be worn.
At this point, I got up and threw the wooden ox out of the window. As for Elder Miao, he agreed to help me find out who was able to make such fine wooden toys. After that, he stood up and left as well.
It was around 12 at night and I was lying on the sickbed in a daze. Suddenly, the faintly discernible sound of a woman's wailing could be heard from the corridor. But when the doctor on duty coughed dryly twice, the crying suddenly stopped.
Thinking about the various supernatural rumors in the hospital, I subconsciously touched my right wrist.
However, in a split-second, I immediately sat up in shock!
Looking at the wooden cow hanging on my wrist, cold sweat slides down my forehead!
