Chapter 9: 008 night watchman
Author: After the incident MACHINE TRANSLATION
Time was tight, and there was no time to explain the details. Master Yu only said a few words before hanging up and rushing to the hospital at the same time.
Gu Ming put on her clothes, took her phone, and quickly ran to the sixth floor. There were lights in the corridor of the hospital, so she wasn't worried that she wouldn't be able to see.
The hospital was always exceptionally quiet in the middle of the night. Gu Ming arrived at the door of room 608. She reached out her hand and was about to open the door, but unexpectedly, the door opened directly from the inside. The room was pitch-black, and the light in the corridor illuminated the face of the person who opened the door.
It was elder Tang.
He was still holding the Buddha statue that looked very similar to him. The Buddha statue was still dripping blood.
Elder Tang looked at Gu Ming and revealed an extremely twisted smile. A strange voice came out of his mouth, ”I was just about to look for you... ”
Gu Ming calmly stepped back and removed the gauze on her right eye.
At this moment, the Buddha statue in elder Tang's hand flashed with a red light. It was as if a voice rang in Gu Ming's ear, ”I'm going to... eat you... ”
Gu Ming looked around. Even though the lights in the corridor were still on, there were still some things further away in the ward. They were all blurry black shadows. HER SCALP felt numb.
What was worse was that the bloody Buddha statue was becoming more and more similar to old Tang. It was almost exactly the same. A line of words quickly appeared in Gu Ming's mind: Buddha statue is like the Lord, the Lord dies.
In other words, if the Buddha statue was exactly the same as old Tang, then it would be the time of old Tang's death.
This was the second time this line of words appeared. Gu Ming did not have time to think about the strangeness of This Line of Words. She grabbed onto the life-saving Straw in her mind and asked, ”can old Tang be saved? How? ”?
Another line of words appeared: saved.
Gu Ming became even more anxious: Hurry up and say it!
That line of words: Only the night watchman can save him.
Gu Ming: ... ...
What nonsense was this? What night watchman? How would she know who the night watchman was? It was already midnight, and most of them were resting. Besides, even if she went out to look for him, it would be too late!
That line of words seemed to understand Gu Ming's crazy ridicule, and another line silently appeared: Are you willing to become the night watchman?
Gu Ming was hesitating. She had to understand what the 'night watchman' was before she could decide whether to agree or not. However, that line of words said that as long as the night watchman could save old Tang, if he did not agree, wouldn't old Tang be dead?
The line of words appeared calmly. After the Buddha statue absorbed the original owner, its next target would be you. With your current ability, you would not be able to escape.
Bang!
Old Tang fell to the ground. His hand was still tightly holding onto the Buddha statue. The Buddha statue was glowing red and was struggling desperately. It wanted to leave old Tang!
Another line of words appeared in Gu Ming's mind. If the Buddha statue left the original owner, the original owner would die immediately.
Gu Ming's expression changed. She gritted her teeth and said, ”I am willing to be the night watchman. What should I do? Quickly tell me! ” There was only one thing in her mind right now, and that was to save people. She could not watch old Tang die in front of her eyes.
The line of words: Are you willing?
Gu Ming: I'm willing.
The line of words: once you become a night watchman, you'll be a night watchman for the rest of your life.
Gu Ming: Okay!
The moment Gu Ming agreed, an old black book appeared in Gu Ming's hand. Gu Ming already knew what to do. She shouted, ”Open! Close! ”
The old black book left Gu Ming's hand. It hung in the air and slowly opened the first page. The strange Buddha statue seemed to be shocked. It did not want to leave old Tang's hand. It became smaller and smaller Then, it crawled into elder Tang's sleeve.
Unfortunately, it was useless.
The ancient black book shone brightly. The Buddha statue was pulled out by a huge suction force. At the same time, the life force attached to the Buddha statue slowly left the Buddha statue. Under the control of the black book, it returned to elder Tang's body The Black Shadow in elder Tang's body was completely absorbed by the black book. Together with the Buddha statue, it was sealed on the first page.
Everything returned to normal. The ancient black book returned to Gu Ming's hand.
Everything that happened tonight was too unbelievable. Gu Ming shook her head. No, everything that happened after rebirth was not normal.
Before Gu Ming could sort out what had happened just now, she heard footsteps. She quickly put away the old black book in her hand and stuffed it into her clothes. Then, she ran over and helped old Tang up from the ground. Fortunately, old Tang seemed to have fainted.
