Chapter 570 The Old Man and Three Wishes
Go to the city of golden bells, the doctor told Zha so clearly.In the infinite city where golden bells are hung in every household, Mrs. Red came back quietly from afar, stepping on the frost.The dark sky will disappear forever, and I will see the true night of light.Of course, there is also the question of life.That is the door that must finally be pushed open.

However, the doctor did not disclose to Za how to get to that city.He only said that it was very dangerous.As for the leader of the Gatherers, so it was with him.But danger does not mean time-consuming, he speculated that if all goes well, it may not take a few years to return.

Zha thought this statement was very strange, as if the doctor already knew where the miracle city was, and even planned to leave.But if that's the case, what should the collectors do?And what would their old bosses do?He expressed his thoughts to the doctor without any concealment, and the doctor showed a strange smile.That smile was not friendly at all, and even a little scary in Zha's opinion.

On that most frightening day, a stranger visited the doctor's single room.The man was small in stature and wrapped himself in an extremely baggy overalls.The style of the clothes is familiar to me, but the fabric is very strange, and the size is too big and too long for the owner of the clothes. The sleeves completely cover the hands, and it is impossible to communicate with others.He also wore a three-cornered hat, probably sewn from leftover fabric from clothing, which covered his head like a helmet.

The strange man didn't say a word to Zha, exuding a pungent rancid smell all over his body, which reminded Zha of the wrecks that were hung under the chariot.But the strange man's smell was more bitter, as if mixed with corpse ashes.He walked straight to the doctor in the house, his footsteps creaking as if his shoes were filled with slime.

A vague fear kept Zha away from the strange visitor.The doctor also sent him to the water to wash some old clothes that he had never seen him wear.When Zha came back, the strange man had disappeared.He hesitated to ask the doctor about the purpose of the stranger.

The doctor told him that the strange man was an escaped prisoner.This person had been subjected to many inhuman abuses and eventually became completely out of control.Even the one who created him couldn't destroy him, so he had to be imprisoned.The Physician chanced upon him during one of his travels, freed him from captivity, and provided him with some degree of healing.But that doesn't mean the other party is completely credible.From the doctor's point of view, the prisoner's mind has been completely changed by the physical changes and the long imprisonment, and he may no longer think rationally.He kept the other party just to get enough news, and the other party also needed his ability to survive and think.They do have an agreement to provide appropriate assistance for each other's purposes.

The Stranger had come to him to hurry him to action, for the Prisoner's thirst for vengeance was overwhelming, but the Physician was in no hurry to do what had to be done.He once led Zha to the basement, and made a final entrustment to Zha in front of Mrs. Hong's flower tree.

This room will be vacant soon.He revealed this to Zha.It may take several years, or more than ten years, before he returns here.During this period, some people may come, maybe some local people who are curious or need help, so Zha doesn't have to pay attention to it, because the setting of the house itself will make it impossible for these people to enter.However, if some strange visitor—a visibly unusual visitor, such as an escaped prisoner—has found Zha very clearly, Zha has to answer the questions very carefully.Don't try to hide something for him, or try to knock something out, because those visitors are likely to be dangerous.Cooperation is the best means of reducing unnecessary risks.The basement, too, will no doubt be found.That doesn't matter, Zha can take the initiative to bring visitors here in exchange for some of his own safety and benefits.

Among those possible future visitors, the doctor drew two images for him in particular, reminding him to pay special attention to these two people: one of them will be a young man who closes his eyes most of the time, or stares at no one's eyes all the time. where he might refer to himself as "Fang" or "Number Six"; another special visitor might be a lanky animal resembling a rocky ox, a gray smooth flying orb, but most likely a man without hair .The name that this person will use for Zha is also uncertain, but compared to the first person, this person will appear to be easy to talk and appear more likely.The doctor even suggested that if he had any troubles at that time, he could ask this hairless man to solve them for him.

The pair's ears may have been as misshapen as the current physician's, but they may have been normal.Physicians are therefore unable to give an exact image of them.The doctor seemed convinced that if these two men came, they could find Zha and not harm Zha.But they will not appear at the same time - the doctor pointed out this point, these two people may come one after another, or neither of them may come, but in any case, they will never appear in front of Zha at the same time.

Having given these instructions, the physician stretched out his hand to the tops of the flowering trees.There was absolutely no blade or fire knife in his hand, but the metal flower branch was easily snapped off.It was not a rough break, because there was an unusually neat joint groove at the break, as if it was a movable part in the first place.

The doctor took the flower branch and left.He confessed that this was a short trip to deal with the minor problems left over from the failure of the last war.But there is no need for Zha to stay in the single house, he suggested Zha go back to live his own life.Then he walked out of the single house and disappeared without a trace before being found.

Zha returned home according to his suggestion and lived a normal and stable family life.But a part of him still stayed in the single room, thinking about the missing doctor and the city of golden bells that the doctor wanted to arrive at.

One day, at a certain time when everyone at home was asleep, Zha was awakened by an unknown cold.When he opened his eyes, he found that the doctor in red was sitting beside his bed.There was another figure in the corner of the room, the strange man who was completely covered in clothes.

I'll come and see you.The doctor gesticulates.He told Zha not to wake up the others, so Zha didn't say anything.He quietly followed the doctor out of the house, while the strange man followed at a distance.Zappa had been terribly frightened of the man, but then he didn't care a bit.From the strange expression on the doctor's face, he seemed to have noticed some kind of sign.

They walked along the stream of broken ice.On the way, the doctor brought up the subject of death.Death itself is powerful—he uses this odd expression—death is the ultimate form of violence, the negation of the phenomenon of life.Life and death are always the two strangest things.Through the repeated execution of these two things, the world assumes an unnatural order, which itself is contrary to reason.Only where there is no life of any kind, no structure of consciousness, can they observe the world as it should be.But if both life and death appear in abundance, it is a repeated imitation of the weird, a natural calling and gathering.That kind of imitation itself may lead to greater unnaturalness, a qualitative change from the fundamental order level.

Zha didn't understand what the doctors were discussing.But he found strangely that the doctor was in a state of high spirits.His hunch already knew what was going to happen next.

The chiefs are no longer a threat.The doctor simply informed him.After the lost war, the Physician, with his mysterious and dreadful guest, went together to the place where the chiefs lived.They'd put the chiefs in a permanent coma, but not actual death -- something the Stranger resented, but the Doctor wasn't about to go along with him.

They have more important things to do.They are going to the city of golden bells.The doctor originally didn't plan to bring an extra helper, but the strange man was also interested there, and if the doctor left, no one here would be a match for the strange man, and he thought it would be unsafe.

It won't be long to go to the City of Golden Bells.The doctor announced so.But when Zha asked about the exact date of return, he found that the doctor no longer answered directly.The Doctor said only that the Collectors would continue to function—not as short-lived as they had in the past, for he had made fundamental improvements to them, and they still looked like a mixture of living people and metal, but in reality they were nothing more than a A pile of humanoid machines.They will handle everything in the world according to the set mode, and the running time is at least three times the life span of Zha.After that, if the Physician hasn't come back, maybe there will be some problems with the population balance, he didn't set up a procedure to deal with the excess population.

What a strange farewell that was.But that was indeed the last memory Saka had of the doctor.When the doctor walked towards the distance on the frost, suddenly turned back.With sly eyes, the doctor uttered two syllables - "Ji Xun".

this is my name.The doctor gestured to him.Then it went away quickly and quietly.

After the first year, the doctor didn't show up again.Neither did the third and tenth years. No. In 20 years, life became very boring.By No. 30, Zha had almost forgotten about this incident, because there was a big commotion on the ground.The young thought that the collectors, since they no longer demanded sacrifices, were utterly useless, and had no right to make rules for the land.Rebellion and suppression made the surrounding area of ​​the market unsafe again, and Zha moved back to the edge of the highland.

Recalling the past years is as fast as water.I don't know in what year he became very old.The owner of the single house still hasn't come back.The two men he described did not come either.

Sometimes I still see him in my dream.The man in the red robe is living in the city where the golden bell hangs.In the early morning, Mrs. Hong walked through the frosty streets to visit his residence.They are doing well in that far away place.

This dream recurred in Zha's later years.In the end he believed that was probably true.The doctor did not come back, because both he and Mrs. Hong lived a happy and peaceful life in the City of Golden Bells.It's a great ending.

That's almost what happened when Zha was dying.A strange woman came to look for "Mr. Ji" with a strange pack beast and two men.They weren't the only visitors over the years, but the others were ordinary and believed that "Mr. Ji" was just a figment of the collectors.That woman was different.She seems to know who Mr. Ji is.

She didn't call herself "Fang" or "Number Six", and her hair was coiled up very lushly, but Zha still took her to the single room.Women come and go.Zha didn't know where she had gone.He was very old, and soon he would be lying in bed, gasping for breath.

He dreamed of the city of golden bells again.The doctor walked slowly along the street, through the open gates of the city, and followed the stream of broken ice and water until he came to Zha's house.

Suddenly, the sky became extremely bright, like a flowing blue-blue glacier.The Red Lady floated in the air like a gust of wind, knocking on the sword made of stone.In that wonderful melody there were tinkling bells and a rich fragrance that he had never smelled before.

He woke up.There was a commotion outside.Outside the suddenly opened door, a doctor in a red robe stood there.He still looked so young, much younger than Zha remembered, almost like a child.He walked into the house from a bright and bright world, and his body seemed to emit warm and bright light.

Zha slowly stretched out his hand to him, and the doctor sat on the edge of the bed and took Zha's hand.The trip to the City of Golden Bells is over.Zha saw a smile of joy on the doctor's face that Zha had never seen in his life.He knew that the other party must have fulfilled all their wishes.
