我對「十碗血」有多少沒有概念。如果硬要形容，就大概是差不多令我失血過多，卻又未到危及生命的臨界點吧。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMmQf3pmOD
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg6upriKcA
放到第五碗血，我已經有滿天星斗的感覺，開始冒冷汗，心跳加快。但瓊姨說，我的元神和女鬼精元有部分是相連。我的血氣減弱，代表女鬼的法力同時降低。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJG2L3z4y7t

瓊姨繼續在前往我家的必經之路佈防。而我的精神太弱，不得不先回巢補眠休息。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUgIXs0MiP

我勉強抖擻精神，走出廳外尋找瓊姨的身影。當我走到玄關，驟眼一望，有上五到六團黑色的物體懸掛在門樑之上。這堆東西毛茸茸的，還有兩顆閃亮的眼珠，我不禁後退一步……434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQPvVC41ib

「黑貓血可以擋煞。」雖說如此，但濫殺生命始終是犯法吧？我憑什麼用毛孩的命來換我的命？434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX33aUiQQ2C

「人類當食，動物當災，素來就不公義。你放心，這些是被人道毀滅的貓，我只是要來取血。」除了黑壓壓的貓屍，狹窄的玄關還設置了要來作法的道壇。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGal7AUuBV
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHh5R41Y6Aa
所謂道壇其實只是騰空了的木造電視矮几，上面放了五個瓷盅，分別連著五條紅繩，裡面各有一隻蟾蜍。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPbwvuz6TL

「我用你的血鋪成了一條血路，引領女鬼來這裡找你。」本來我的血，對女鬼來說有增強法力之用，但混合了穿山甲鱗和珍珠的粉末之後，反而有助辟邪治鬼。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mvnHOk7C5

「啊～！」瓊姨語音未落，就聽到外面傳來一下陰森的尖叫聲。這叫聲的頻率極高，耳膜彷彿被霎時刺穿。一如所料，全屋的燈光熄滅，只剩預先點燃的十數枚紅蠟燭。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iMFi5h4UB
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8UoQs7TgF
終究要來了。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8bXMn0qQX
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYh3417EPO
瓊姨的眼珠一轉，使力拉緊手中五條紅繩，我急忙退到她身後。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7gOMCNWta
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKZNHSzury
叫聲持續不斷。有時候我想，最可怕的不是狼嚎鬼哭，而是你知道只有馬上要身陷囹圄的人才會聽得見這種聲音，而自己就是其中之一。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzifYbdyAwQ
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2spaGWbJL
瓊姨一邊使出不同的步法，邊靈活地用雙手操縱五條紅線，似是正在與女鬼鬥法鬥力。瓷盅入面的蟾蜍不斷呱呱叫嚷，門外門內的聲音都令人煩亂不已，大概要超出我一個凡夫俗子所能接受的驚慄程度。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6ZIjEaOSg

一陣哭叫聲之中，瓊姨止住了動作，家中的木門嘭嘭作響。在微弱的燭光底下，我仍然能夠清楚看見木門正中浮現了一個人的輪廓，凸出部分還清晰可見女鬼的五官，仿如浮雕藝術品，異常詭異。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SSjH5BDQQ

我以為故事來到這裡，就是大團圓結局。等了不到二十秒，幻想已經破滅。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnqZbxhBvy
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiNXiS3mV1
大門突然打開。這一次，我確定站在我面前的，絕對是個有血有肉的人，但這並不代表我和瓊姨就變得安全了。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezG6yndXUp

「瓊姨，她是那隻女鬼的女兒！」女孩來勢洶洶。她的衣著與常人無異，但神情十分憔悴，眼窩凹陷。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbawwF4kvmv
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqQbtHgYtp
一時間，我和瓊姨有點手足無措。一來她不是鬼，二來，她就只是眼神空洞地站在玄關，並無動靜。瓊姨上下打量女孩，相信正在思量該如何應付。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMPxB54jbv

「你姑母很有可能借用了煉屍的法術，利用了一個活人的肉體來『借屍還魂』。」瓊姨說，通常煉屍者會取來桐木或柳木，刻成人型，將之與『屍』同靈。萬一以後『屍體』不受控制，就可以毀掉木人，以破屍氣。瓊姨說，姑母一定要在附近作法，控制女孩。除非找出她的位置將木人銷毀，或者殺死女孩，否則這一戰我們毫無勝算。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQjYMz2u3Z

女孩好像開始恢復意識，大步衝前。她一聲嚎叫，旁邊的茶几隨即升起並朝著我撞過來。我躲避不及，正面迎擊，額頭和肋骨被撞個正著。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrj3TtofOF
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ERIHFzMDu
這一下重擊，我隨之跌坐到客廳中間的沙發之上。單人座的沙發甚至沒有容許我轉背的空間，去避過眼前的攻擊。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtt5wrcVCM
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqTdmaMt85
眼看著那個女孩只在一臂之遙，我仍然心存僥倖，深信自己命不該絕。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcAWZCfBPn
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNJacwlhsG
我看見女孩伸出兩爪準備迎向我。當她冰冷的皮膚觸碰到我的雙肩和脖子，有一刻，我真的以為自己生命的盡頭不遠了。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOth2YCpE0

然而，女孩似受到一股氣場衝擊而彈開。她一雙眼珠變成全黑。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxyK9VQeoX
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBCuqmg4KG
我身下的真皮沙發，應聲爆開，碎片灑落。奇怪的是，當那些碎片一觸碰到女孩的身體，她就痛苦莫名地慘叫。過了半晌，終於倒地不起！434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9YPRK2LSK
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1g2OiEKSGH
瓊姨一臉驚嚇，上前察看。她的嘴唇顫抖不已，轉過頭來向我道：「這張沙發裡面的……是人骨和皮肉。」434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4wJUvfRJK

對我來說，媽媽猶如一個陌生人。我和她除了血緣，毫無交集。我一直以為她的離去是出於冷漠，是一種不負責任，但原來正好相反。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDo7vDF90C

早在我剛出生的時候，她就預料到有一天悲劇會上演續集，所以趁早離我們父子二人而去，以為可為我倆避過一劫。大概是後來她遠在他方亦遭遇不測，特別命人將她的屍體以骨為架，以肉為皮，製成沙發，施下血咒之後送回家中，希望有朝一日可以保護家人，免於毒手。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKi7qzBnYb
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7CJB88pxz
每一天，爸爸或我坐在這沙發，以一皮之隔，雙手摸著媽媽手背，大腿坐在媽媽膝上，背靠媽媽在底下只剩白骨的懷抱，成為我們這些年來唯一的連繫，真正「骨肉相連」。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgP6o0hTwr

等到仲秋通知陳伯，決定放棄祖屋房產的賠償，已經是差不多兩個星期後的事。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ak3L5QP6v
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuP6cS00Ry
「明明你倆都是學法之人，為何你借用怪力亂神就要遭到報應，姑母卻可以全身而退享榮華？」年輕人畢竟入世未深。我不知道要如何遣詞，才能令仲秋一下子躍過幾十年的磨練，瞬間領悟這個世界的真理。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnypuRJDq2
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNHg8JPZft
「眾生皆平等。你眼見有人富貴有人貧，其實都是一種平衡。當年她父親為了保住家人性命，不得已選擇犧牲你的姑母，而她卻選擇鑽牛角尖，含恨一生。命運苦了她上半輩子，自己的執著又再斷送了下半輩子。難道這樣的懲罰對她還不夠嗎？」434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdK9g3r91Zy
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYud8e5ELTJ
各人自有各人的修行。而仲秋姑母的天命，就是要她自己化解因嗔心而起的業障。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaByomFKZDa

至於曉晴跟仲秋的緣分，今世並未了。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfFWTQ6j7f

「我會把曉晴的遺物焚毀或悉數捐贈。這一隻小熊玩偶是她生前最喜歡的，也許你會想留來作紀念。」仲秋珍而重之地接過熊娃娃，一言不發。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCJWYDbgdv
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2ZnmmTIYA
曉晴從小到大，都要把這隻小熊放床頭，每天抱著才睡得著。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fLZQRJrPt
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxyUJXt25X
雖說一切皆命數，曉晴總算為仲秋而死，自此陰陽分隔。他們二人縱情愫互生，但今生本無婚約，下世亦自有緣分主宰，用不著我來安排什麼冥婚。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMMu9BVAHX
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtSeIF9yYj
不過曉晴陽壽未盡。時辰未到，她就要留在陽間到處躲避判官的追捕。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLeLXRBQW4
434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTdfm64n7e
而最安全的方法，莫不過匿藏於另一個生為判官的人身邊，日夜相守，直至壽終正寢，真正永辭人世。434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQBtwxdo4c
