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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCWlZyEVdU
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EW1IKgIAX
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZvsfCZkpf
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAogb7IHpka
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjsCrHzoOR

不知道過了多久，模糊間聽到一些聲音，醒來發現已經入黑。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAFvbndkGM
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmQTwhkhbR
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……445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxRa8NUGJh

原來是血淋淋的貓屍。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfXixjUQHX

「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？445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUbCeeLpab
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdvDUCZoeQ
「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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlN3gMFrka
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGFCuWzUnH
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlrjSwTu0q
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhqiOWpP3O
「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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzdKRO5meE

「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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiYmvgy8Tl
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacEOBLtQT7
終究要來了。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESbzM3BYaB
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAufDe09dru
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU89dP9rZ8p
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDP3Vn2IO6s
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4948d5l3In
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ce6Uy5C3p
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeHIU0vDJK
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡua5HqwL7h2
但想到曉晴一個纖纖女子都成了伯仁，我真的懦弱不起來。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGmvWm4F7v
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzNvVQhRNz
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IOoFjimzu
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7xQSH32z9
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3iG8ytUH1
瓊姨大聲叫好。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj8aKfKgV5
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvQbzTugXE
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqEw2wuTfb
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1iL675ww5
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuBnFtY0UX
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDz7PE97FvA
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡql2JG1aCyW
因為我記得，我在女鬼自殺新聞的家屬照片上，見過這個女孩。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTfxOS841n

445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSV3Z1J5LTi
「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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlgNQhnUGN
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyoQrQR0xY
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yChJCSugW
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OmkgajYlX
「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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESWWSUwiNx

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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcNDLepXCw
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU54jbBV8Hd
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJg32URsXPq
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPXKmAbYtt
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUuot1EBff
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz55CqfFc7l
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYoxk9Ytms
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67ctRtjS4i
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs7Ov4aP8T
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDu4UGG0bN
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！445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNphTjFc5e7
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPxeZJiRsh
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。」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtu7UKUTDT

我的性命，受之父母；而在最危急的關頭，同樣是靠父母死前留下的印記保住。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jgBuPtJal

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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbp1DPTdh2
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTk5hXpVlo
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHLqEtauIj
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7pWmDopdz
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTR1QxAV9i4
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」。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJFkfyVjEw

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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dpLfFfJHn
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX5k2nFO6J
「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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVH4ujn8SKe
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1OLsJSvw4
「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？」445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qfE6Dj33r
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYQZlyzA9Z
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPWKHE9iUp

至於曉晴跟仲秋的緣分，今世並未了。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEQD0RJUgG
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwnVxvYfUg
「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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS7DxhASYR
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCQq0oeXU2
曉晴從小到大，都要把這隻小熊放床頭，每天抱著才睡得著。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0D03YwxNMh
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnwiJZwTVl
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTWO8kgyUF
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMhyS9rLqI
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3mpGgtVED
445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFqzaFh9wq
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。445Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmk7NnpPPG
