手才剛碰到宮落絮的裙角，他便像斷了線的提線木偶，歪著身子倒了下去。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XlnbaOIvX
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA19u3FJlnS
見狀，宮落絮掛在臉上的笑意也一瞬間退去。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3oqIHuJ3d
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfc2uGBS7Lc
她理了理自己的衣襟，嗅了嗅空氣中的瀰漫的香氣——沛扈南部特產的致幻香料，燒足兩柱香的時間，就能使室內之人恍入夢境，吸入肺中，不用一盞茶，就會墮入日思夜想的黑甜鄉。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgB6qevPh0J
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1CbCudCl1
身邊侍婢只當是一般的助興薰香，每次喚她們先行退下，她們周身都會散發隱晦難言的羞澀氛圍。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xjKyZoK67
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaP6yAcKR58
宮落絮起身下榻，無意識皺緊了鼻子，自從「看」不見後，五感之中的嗅覺和觸覺就越發敏銳，這薰香的味道太濃烈，雖然聞不習慣，但勝在效果奇佳，在找到替代品之前只能將就著用了。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQSjQy0fKk
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQI84z3HaoB
一個動念，房內的屏風機關被啟動，隱藏的密道便出現在腳下，宮落絮駕輕就熟地進入闃黑且深不見底的地道之中，頭上的入口隨著她的進入也跟著緩緩闔上。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kbokvzVqg
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3MoaS673a
婓城之內據她所探知到的密道就有不下十個，其中一條便是連通羿戮殿到攬月閣的路，這截彎取直的通道替她節省了不少路程，神不知鬼不覺就能到她想到的地方。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPS596hoAlI
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIt0FT5oK9v
出了密道，順著盤旋而上的階梯，宮落絮到了攬月閣的至高點，四周開闊，隨風翩韆的帷幔將這一方天地與外界相隔。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQdsHY56fu
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡid8ro6aFnv
上一次跟赤夜對飲就是在這，她那時候只知道一股腦地悶頭喝酒，把赤夜喝倒後，為了更清楚地看見月亮，她一個人爬到琉璃瓦頂，對著月色又是一頓豪飲。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF7xg9IgwJ
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3IXwvQhV9
不知是否因薰香的作用，此時宮落絮只覺得一陣睏倦湧上心頭，神智逐漸昏沉朦朧，像被一團迷霧輕攏著，卻又掙脫不開。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVJyb5fvLl
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdC3ASW7fS
她就近尋了個樑柱靠著，本想閉目調息，來抵銷層層倦意，可這抹疲乏有如夜幕之下的潮水。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS60f0CuMei
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAvdYb1gBx
剛伸出手想要觸碰它，就被溼答答的水氣浸透衣袖，一點一滴纏上她的手臂，蠱惑著她向前一步，再向前一步。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQQGy7h75M
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mAsPmnD02
等她半個身子都探進水裡，她才發現潮水之下，是幽不見底的深淵，一道浪潮襲來，將她的意識盡數吞沒……717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCnt7c1vJp

「師父跟你說什麼了？還特地支開我，搞得神神秘秘的。」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaxza8LW25
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeed6Id2Fp
「你想知道？」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTLMJm8z0R

「……」不，她不想知道。「愛說不說。」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqrExBrzNP
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MAVHBrWLZ
沿途風景優美，群山層巒疊起，那是個陽光和煦的午後，為了參加四年一次的演武大會，她和師弟才剛拜別師門，就開始忙著趕路。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvLzaaygLM
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9ECKa2iT2
不想理睬師弟的廢話發言，宮落絮一個提神運氣和他拉開了一段距離。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfi8R8SMiI
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7Lm1KiFl2
「好啦好啦！」師弟追了上來，與她並肩而行，「師父讓我此次下山，要護你周全。」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEn9DiWEDsy
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXmvB7QdCo
「我不需要誰的保護。」宮落絮對師父的交代不太苟同，努了努嘴。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhEJvuc1LT
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCffzPhbLB
「放心！不管發生什麼事，只要有我在，就不會讓你受一分傷害！」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOJsfMWizC
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAAmjxr1km
「吹吧你。」師弟信誓旦旦的言詞引得宮落絮一陣嗤笑，「論武功，我比你厲害，要說保護也是我護著你吧？」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUeXH9UHTH
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DGcdYS42F
「這你就要去問師父她老人家了。」師弟雙手枕在腦後，望著頭上刺眼的光芒，天外飛來一句，「欸？也許是師父比較看重我也說不定？」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0kd1knSdQ
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYL0q6EOd6Y
宮落絮揶揄道：「看重你什麼？難不成是看中你闖禍的本事？」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRRGupBckw
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdE96VyRIF
「師姐你三天不打上房揭瓦啦！」師弟佯裝生氣，抬手就是一掌，「看招！」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRJAIf5AcK
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoAlILL7mX
「哈哈哈，來啊小師弟！就憑你先抓到我再說吧！」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRZcG3Twlo
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1yWAC830a
師弟緊追在她身後，作勢要跟她拚個你死我活，否則不肯罷休的樣子。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34infXg2A1
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRycei6A6h
她則在前頭卯足全力飛奔，不讓他追上，只是跑沒兩步，身後突然沒了聲響，天地變色像被誰按了禁聲扭，靜得讓人毛骨悚然。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEJpXylPmi
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPA7x9DaKh7
她陡然回過頭，沒有看見師弟的身影，本該掛在頭頂的太陽被堅硬石壁取代，四周潮濕陰冷——這是一座不見天日的山洞。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsNIgDRcyF
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawgfYuSgup
山洞深處有個黑影倒在地上，不知是生是死。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9DJ0aGE2r
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WYiNj8gXY
她緩緩靠近，心底不可自抑的恐懼感隨著越靠近那個人越發高升，心跳突突突的越跳越快，快到她整個人像要燒起來一樣。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJT3cspw7w1
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4Ss8g9zow
在緊張和不安的情緒交互支配之下，她幾乎要喘不過氣。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlojpgQLaCR
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVNg1pZcfZ
拜託。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmqTwN4fhm

不要是她想的那樣。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVdibkzYaB
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ111uad0H0s
蹲下身，指尖剛碰上那人掩住面容的髮絲，虛弱的聲音就貼著她的脈搏，傳入耳裡。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0eUr9PF47
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2L0zjj3YN
「師姐……你不要哭……」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIplqfSNPn
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE251sZDb9i
什麼？717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfxIaIMTfd
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlUuizLq60
她哭了嗎？717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bWCp64XUH
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBijTcq1nTg
她抬手摸臉，才發現臉上全是淚水，手上還沾著溫溫熱熱的液體，攤開手心一看，她竟一時之間無法分辨這是她，亦或是師弟的血。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWG52aSlbvZ
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRE85BBIyLu
師弟似乎想安慰她，拼命撐開被血水糊住的眼睹，吃力地看著她。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCNVwSdL4f
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZklZsNrsl
「我不疼的……」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIq7onB88ii
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmioE5ip07L
只是那雙眼睛早已失焦，失去光芒的瞳孔浮出一層將死之氣。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91gZ9ynG9d
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9W8G5UXp3F
沒有哪個瞬間比此時此刻更清晰地感受到生命的衰亡和脆弱，她知道他的生命正在倒數，她想抱住他，像把流沙攢在手心那樣，她要阻止時間的流逝。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iofxbzCOi
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxG5OtA5Jdh
他不可以死，她不要他死。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOQhQy4XiZ
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgS70ep9rG
可不知為何，手上一點力氣都沒有，她連抱著他這麼簡單的動作都做不到。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPll1iSkMj
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgkVqOdzzY
「阿莫……你再撐一下……」她狼狽而無助地跪伏在他身上，忍著滿腔酸楚，說出口的話連她自己都不確定，「我會想辦法的……我一定不會讓你死…… 」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tn6A9Bk1l
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl63SAZ7ct7
「好……」師弟艱難地從擠出一個字後，忍不住咳起來，污血順著他的唇角流淌。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOXYbIsTuz
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0s1oiwwMa
她抵著他的胸膛，聽見他的心跳聲好弱，像瓢潑大雨下隨時會被撲滅的篝火，只能迸發出零星的火光。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd23wO4gNBU
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyphKev01Eb
誰都可以，拜託誰來救救他？717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NPIZjPo9O
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwn7ZBRJjEe
「對不起……我來晚了……我明明……咳、咳！答應過師父的……」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZ7lESBRnQ
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lBvRQwluI
「不晚，一點都不晚。」她手使不出力，腳也像被人灌了泥漿，邁不開步伐。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5y4ChK1g2
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMp8W27WuU
她只好扯開喉嚨向無邊的黑暗求救，希望有人能聽見聲響，過來查看狀況，只要有人能帶他出去，也許就還有希望。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSGZgxo8WW
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVwgsuoTyj
不管是誰，不管什麼代價，只要能救活師弟，她都可以答應⋯⋯只要能救活他⋯⋯717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaX6PRPLSBC
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIVyEv59za
她抱著渺小的冀望，祈求上天垂憐，可是喊了好久，喊到她聲音沙啞，她的呼喚就像石沉大海，沒有人聽見。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYlTrelftR
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9vj93mDmr
唯一回應她的，是師弟彷彿遺言般的囈語。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM1P6MDXyC
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIHZWWkoA6
「如果……我死……」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXqdro3e2A
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6XTFpEjnV
「你先不要說話！」她倉皇出聲打斷他，好像這麼做，就可以不用面對殘酷的現實，「你不會死的，你會好好的⋯⋯會好好活著的⋯⋯」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEzpeODBVY
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVG9JlL9Fj
師弟他笑了。
他笑得很輕，喟嘆一般轉瞬即逝的笑聲隔著胸腔，震到她的耳膜，她捉到了那薄如蝶翼般流轉的光采，是他生命盡頭的最後一束光。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmcreaCrQZ
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfhecASQOe
「……我……沒有後悔過……」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXe0w6shcI
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsxumP7Ota
「還有人在等你回去，你還有好多事沒做完……不是嗎？」她不知道該怎麼把他留下，她只能讓他去抓住那些念想，抓住一根與世界牽連的繩子 ，還有他的牽掛，彷彿他多握住一瞬，就能多出一種可能性。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu8ZqP9wBQ
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwwBLxvdFo
只是他的聲音出賣了他，藏不住的虛弱氣息支撐不了他的身體，準備馱著他去遠行。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNPnc0oovH
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKtr5XTWMI
那注定是一場有去無回的歸途。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJyL8ZVbKT
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb7veS0mja
「我……恐怕要讓……失望了……」氣弱游絲的話音，她必須要貼緊他的唇才能聽得清楚。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43oxuahlv3
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSO3cUyPBed
師弟說得很費勁，一段話要換好幾口氣才能說完，哪怕她再不願意面對。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwxMoH4Ife
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEStPKAXx5
此時她也必須承認，他的時間到了。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJymVaepGnm
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVlyN0e9jI
「……死後……懷中的東西……帶、帶給她……」他囁嚅著耳語，其實好幾個字都模糊不清，她都誤以為是風聲。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIz3hLat1Ze
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIlcVxYCUd
再仔細一聽，才發現那是他在說話。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxYDKCb3CB
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FIIQZr1ua
過了好久好久，她回神過來，發現山洞裡很安靜，吹在肌膚上的風很涼，師弟不說話了，胸口的聲音也聽不見了。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pY4S1qgQP
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAxejsXXCP
一把火莫名從地底竄出來，將他裹住，他的身影被烈焰燒焦、扭曲、變形，熾熱的火焰中傳來萬鬼哭嚎般，撕心裂肺的吶喊。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHgmso5b88

灼熱的浪潮向她惡狠狠地撲來，像被捆著投進滾燙岩漿中，宮落絮只覺得窒息難受，想深吸一口氣，就忽地一個激靈，猛然驚醒。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8RY9ucZcw
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoY3MmgWPQh
冷汗浸染衣襟，晚風吹來，帶出夢境之外的餘悸，她頓時倦意全無。
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFBLDtFPUw
隔日天才剛亮，典樂司就派人將任位大典的禮服送來試穿，從焚香沐浴到梳妝打扮，最後整裝完畢，前後耗費了足足三個時辰。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjedUtMKqHF
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOiTNx3wNm
褪下繁重的華服，眼見午膳時間將近，典樂司的官員簡單詢問過宮落絮的意見後，就帶著原班人馬躬身告退。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUqw41dbCi
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdI2yLqV1nJ
午膳結束，看著幾乎原封不動被撤下的菜餚，柳兒本想出聲關切一下，卻被依依搖頭阻擋了下來。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU72g4QcWnD
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oeKOwT4Td
今日的魔君大人似乎有些魂不守舍，雖然旁人看不出來，但作為貼身服侍她的侍婢們，都有著一顆善於察言觀色的玲瓏心思。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefuRy4pCfX
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FFYNzaFhS
這個時候多餘的關心只會徒增困擾，有時候留下一個安靜的空間，反而讓人有喘息的餘地。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVuzy6B3eb
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiuyRVGzMN
柳兒和依依將醫官煎煮的湯藥放在案上後，就安靜地退於殿外守著，隨時聽候魔君大人的差遣。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13bYv9iWkX

宮落絮手中的書冊閱讀到一半，通報進來的赤夜就率先發話。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0dtL4eNam
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzYTmIqIY5
「聽管事說您午膳用的不多，是不合口味？要不要屬下命膳房換個菜色，等等再讓他們送來？」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPEffEk16T
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwt6sE0DXd
「不用麻煩。」宮落絮實在沒胃口，也不想節外生枝，隨口敷衍了幾句，「本君還不餓，晚上再多吃一點就好了。」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmHqe6FlDz
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYom5JWJRd
一眼掃過桌上紋風不動的藥汁和宮落絮的臉色，赤夜問道：「主君近日身體還好嗎？」717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQN9GeiXmzj
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqpQDrdVIm

宮落絮剛想拿起調羹喝藥，一道電流就從經脈竄走，她一時拿不穩手中的東西，摔碎在地上引起巨響。717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXB5hvKPxJp
717Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1j6BayKCv
「主君！」赤夜一聲驚呼，看著她壓抑的神色，彷彿如臨大敵。
