Zhang Yuanqing had a dream in which he became a beggar with a broken leg, deaf and mute. I go out to beg early in the morning every day, and then I am dragged back at night. Not only do I take away all my money, but I also don’t have enough food or clothing to keep me warm.
He has never gone to school and is not in good health. A snowstorm will make him catch colds continuously. Lying on the street all day, like a stray dog.
There were many passers-by on the street, and there were several beautiful faces that he always felt seemed familiar. But that beautiful woman felt uncomfortable even looking at him.
Sometimes, he would also dream, lying on the street, dreaming that he had become a big shot, handsome and talented. Everyone respects him when he sees him, and women swoop on him like wild bees and butterflies.
However, every time he woke up from this dream, he would feel extremely uncomfortable and continue to live a life of deafness and muteness.
Until his hair turned gray, he lay dying on the roadside like an old dog lingering on. No one dared to get close to him, so he died on a snowy street.
Just when he dreamed of his own death, Zhang Yuanqing suddenly opened his eyes.
He was like a man who almost drowned, gasping for air. Although his eyes were open, he couldn't see or hear anything.
At this moment, he couldn't even tell whether he was Zhang Yuanqing or the old beggar who died on the street. Dreams and reality made him confused for a moment.
It took a long while before Zhang Yuanqing felt something. Colors, sounds, and pain slowly entered his brain.
Zhang Yuanqing woke up in a hospital bed. Judging from the ward, it was an independent ward that could only be used by cadres or big bosses. There are many lines connected to his body, and he also has a hanging bottle.
Seeing the life instrument, Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but tremble in his heart. He still remembered that he had seen the life instrument when he woke up at Zhou Qiangbin's house. When he saw the same device again, it suddenly seemed like a dream, and for a moment he felt that he was still dreaming.
Zhang Yuanqing forced himself to open his eyes, eager to see clearly his surroundings and the people around him. But he blinked and his consciousness fell into sleep again.
Faintly heard a woman's voice: "He's awake..."
When I woke up again, there were already many people in the ward.
Zhang Yuanqing touched his legs with difficulty and found that his legs were still there. At this moment, he actually wanted to cry.
This is the first time Zhang Yuanqing has truly felt the threat of death, which is different from the feeling of freezing with Zhao Xinyi on the mountain. At that time, although it was dangerous, he had a strong will to stay awake and a strong body to withstand the cold. He did not relax and fainted until someone appeared.
But this time, Zhang Yuanqing truly felt the fragility and helplessness of life. When the car hit him, his proud willpower and strong body were as thin as paper.
He could feel that his life no longer belonged to him at that moment.
It's as if fate throws a dice and determines his life and death.
"Yuanqing, how do you feel now?" Zhou Qiangbin's voice dispelled some of Zhang Yuanqing's remaining fear.
Zhang Yuanqing subconsciously wanted to get up, but his whole body ached.
Zhou Qiangbin personally shook the bed for him so that he could see the people in the ward more directly. The ward was full of doctors and nurses, and they were observing me.
"Leader... I almost thought I wouldn't wake up." Zhang Yuanqing said weakly in a hoarse voice.
As a thoughtful leader, Zhou Qiangbin felt his eyes turn slightly red when he heard these words. It can be said that Zhang Yuanqing survived this time because of luck.
"How do you feel now?"
Zhou Qiangbin asked with concern.
How could Zhang Yuanqing tell? He couldn't feel anything except pain now.
Zhou Qiangbin asked again: "Do you still remember what you remember?"
Zhang Yuanqing frowned. He only remembered the moment when the car rolled. It seemed to be a large truck, but the memory was not very clear. He even couldn't remember where the accident happened.
Zhou Qiangbin looked at the attending doctor again, who hurriedly stepped forward: "Mayor Zhou, Secretary Zhang's condition is not bad. The main reason is that the brain has been concussed, and the human brain has a stress response, so there is partial memory loss.
It takes some time to rest, and maybe you can remember it. As for other problems, they are not serious. There is a slight bone fracture in the leg and several ligaments in the body are strained. As long as the rest time is enough, he can recover. "
Zhang Yuanqing thought of Qiao Qiang at this moment and hurriedly asked about his situation.
When Zhou Qiangbin heard Qiao Qiang's name, a hint of complexity flashed in his eyes, but he still said: "His condition is more serious than yours. Three ribs are broken and one leg is broken. In less than half a year to a year, There is no way to fully recover.”
Zhang Yuanqing didn't notice Zhou Qiangbin's indifferent tone when he mentioned Qiao Qiang.
His attention was focused on the news, and he felt a little uncomfortable. He had just established a good relationship with Qiao Qiang, but he didn't expect that he would be injured. He was more seriously injured, and he didn't know whether his career could continue.
The impermanence and cruelty of fate are beyond anyone's imagination.
Noticing that Zhang Yuanqing was in a low mood, Zhou Qiangbin asked doctors and nurses to check and leave the ward first.
After the doctors and nurses left, Zhou Qiangbin held Zhang Yuanqing's hand and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Qing, I almost hurt you this time."
Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this. Due to the concussion of his brain, he could only barely remember the scene before the accident. Until now, he has never doubted the accident.
Zhou Qiangbin did not play riddles with him and told him bluntly: "You were hit by a large truck. The large truck hit you twice, both front and back, both in a life-threatening manner. The driver did not wear a seat belt and died on the spot. .”
At this time, Zhang Yuanqing regained some consciousness. There must be something wrong if a large truck hits twice in a row. If it was an accident, it was clear that Qiao Qiang had reversed the car and got out of the way. It could be explained that he was knocked away the first time. If he hit him again the second time, the driver would definitely have turned around and chased him.
If Zhou Qiangbin was sitting in the car, someone wanted him dead!
And all of this would make sense. If Zhou Qiangbin hadn't had a mission in advance, he would have left the provincial capital at night. The next day, they should have left in the car together.
Zhang Yuanqing's face was ugly, because even if Zhou Qiangbin followed them, he wouldn't be much better now. But what was originally two people in the hospital became three people in the hospital.
Who did this and was so brave?
Zhang Yuanqing looked at Zhou Qiangbin: "Isn't there a reason why you haven't found out yet?"
Zhou Qiangbin's face was also gloomy: "Except for the two collisions of the large truck that cannot be explained, everything else can be explained. This large truck driver has been working for eight years, and his family is not short of money. Especially through blood tests, he Had a lot to drink the night before.”
Zhang Yuanqing thought the same thing, how could he easily expose his flaws when doing such a thing? In other words, this happened. Although Zhou Qiangbin was not hit, the opponent suffered no loss.
His pupils suddenly shrank, and he thought of a possibility. If they didn't succeed this time, then they still dare to do it!
Zhang Yuanqing felt a chill in his heart. Although he had always been cruel, his peers in the village called him like a mountain dog. But that doesn't mean he's really not afraid of death.
He was able to fight with knife-wielding gangsters and dare to rush into the mountains to rescue people in heavy rain because he had a certain degree of certainty. What he encountered this time broke his usual good self-confidence, and for the first time he felt what fear was.
Zhou Qiangbin also saw that he was in a bad mood and patted his shoulder: "You have a good rest. You will stay in the hospital for a while. If you have any ideas when you are discharged, you can tell me at any time."
Some words don't need to be explained, Zhou Qiangbin's meaning is already obvious. If you want to quit, he will give you a chance.
