三日後，辛菲已獨自來到陸景珩提過的那座山谷。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1xyqI3lSN
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6pokjLNzE
那地方離京城不遠，藏在城郊數里外的山腳下，若非刻意尋找，尋常人根本不會注意。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1jS4Fmu7O
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaKOcaSjcv
她將自己包得嚴嚴實實，口鼻覆著這兩日親手縫製的布罩，雙手也戴上皮手套，只露出一雙冷銳的眼睛。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YM49n6yBq
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5t5B6DOU4
山林蓊鬱，萬木繁盛，耳邊是鳥鳴清脆，溪水潺潺，風裡甚至還混著淡淡花香，若不是心中有事，這裡倒真稱得上一處踏青賞景的好地方。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfx7FSCD8H
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtr9s9LeduJ
辛菲望著眼前景色，騎馬的速度不自覺慢了一點——她已經很久很久沒有見過還保有生氣的人間山野。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Natwdl2M6
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNHwCx7kXZ
末世裡的植物，早已不是植物。被污染侵蝕後，花不像花，樹不像樹，原本扎根泥土的東西，最後大多都變成會蠕動、會尖叫、甚至會吞食血肉的怪物。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMMInSj4tZ
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKjS8WeFpu
別說什麼郊外踏青，末世的人類若非逼不得已，根本不會往山裡靠近一步。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyPDC9sPmI
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYaFgDkdjV
想到這裡，辛菲眸色微沉。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWd94z5Q6vy
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtFPWZNeUm
眼前山色越是靜好，越讓人覺得不安，像是一幅被精心描繪的畫卷裡，偏偏藏著不該存在的腐爛之物。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmyGnT5jte
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdDyF6uew4
她收斂思緒，繼續往深處前行。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPUNkGcb7n
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYieqCT60q
山路越來越窄，到後來連馬都難以通行，她索性翻身下馬，牽著踏雪慢慢往前。起初路上還偶爾能看見幾個進山採藥、砍柴的百姓，可越往裡走，人煙便越少，直到最後，只剩下森林過於安靜的呼吸聲。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oS8RUnCVX
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcdCvRAZNb
鳥鳴被襯得格外清晰，腳下枯枝碎裂的聲音，也顯得異常刺耳。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtAPvXmIxi
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdFRA7y9oL
忽然——踏雪猛地停下腳步。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1bopqYqnV
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzjQON8d1g
牠高高抬起頭，耳朵繃直，鼻息急促地朝前方低鳴，整匹馬都顯得躁動不安。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LBjckRrem
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJE1TgKShf
辛菲立刻察覺異樣，伸手輕撫牠的鬃毛安撫，可踏雪依舊焦躁地刨著地面，喉間不斷發出低低鼻音。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvGTFZqRzT
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkU3s9oeYH
辛菲眸光微凝，因為她也聞到了…62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQy7TYjvZ94
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ecBpCdrv9
空氣裡，多了一絲極淡、卻令人熟悉到骨子裡的腐臭味。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95cLGTpSPo
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflfL2KQBRU
「踏雪，你也感覺到了，是嗎？」62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Z5ScB9iks
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeBSNe91JF
她握著韁繩的手微微收緊。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpVxKhtIZU
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SLHeFa7MP
那不是普通腐味，而是屬於末世的味道。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixjScs7zfM
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpGs0mQJa7
辛菲沉默片刻，最後還是停下腳步，她摸了摸踏雪的額頭，低聲道：62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVuoPdWfsB
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbmYtRalLP
「你留在這裡等我，別亂跑。」62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQRouJoN40
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhu7MOx94mu
踏雪卻像聽懂了似的，不安地用腦袋蹭她掌心，怎麼都不願鬆開。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNND5PGoQr
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSsOOAaE4g
辛菲忍不住笑了一下，「聽話，接下來的東西不是你能應付的。」62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEcTrnKTmJ
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlp3cQzLHUl
踏雪依舊焦躁，她只能耐著性子又安撫幾句。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72P1qrA2De
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vp0Rl7nqS
「放心，我很快回來。」62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEcBdDmM5Z
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6D052zLpZ
說完，她轉身獨自往深處而去。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DMxQbrvZA
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynrcEIdQoy
約莫一炷香後，前方視野驟然開闊，那是一座山谷，而那股腐臭味，也在此刻變得濃烈…辛菲幾乎瞬間便確定：這裡，就是陸景珩提過的地方。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVm5Yj7CDLK
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgrRMT9Ax6
她沒有貿然靠近，而是貼著山壁無聲前行，動作輕巧得幾乎不像人，反倒像某種在黑暗中穿梭的獵食者。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQUpM5YlBC
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYJYBiKQuh
沒多久，她便看見山壁深處藏著一座洞穴，洞內垂滿鐘乳石。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxYDgCVJac
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1WbDvhnM2
明明外頭還是白日，裡面卻陰冷昏暗，而那股腐臭味，正源源不絕從洞內湧出。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvAzdcpZsU
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKm1lNL27LA
辛菲眼神微冷，找到了！62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJf56gJnXQ
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAWLVi0GeY
她放輕呼吸，無聲潛入，越往裡走，味道便越濃。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQfaR5rTzo
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7514ZjQ4rf
直到下一瞬間，眼前豁然一亮。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1njeaTN1E
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3pTcthZNx
洞穴深處，赫然盤踞著一株巨大而詭異的東西。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwm4w8XGgZ
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiEM0OqXrw
牠像枯木，卻又不像，漆黑又血肉色的枝幹表面覆滿黏稠液體，整體更像某種巨大肉囊，微微鼓動著。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmsVCD27Ez
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0MLiDL7oF
最中央的位置，則掛著一顆不斷蠕動收縮的孢子囊，每一次收縮，都會散出細微灰霧。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwDrH4YgaJ
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQ0n7l9Ffv
辛菲瞳孔微微一縮！62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2LmwKunbu
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYXxabGAW5
她沒有認錯。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bgeufv1Zw
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnlSerwuHA
那東西，正是骨枯散。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YtabBqfKs
—————-62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeNwDm5kiC
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1CWkzNVlX
它本體其實是一種寄生菌絲。一旦察覺威脅，核心孢子囊便會劇烈收縮，像箭矢般瞬間噴出大量肉眼難辨的細小孢子。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwCyRK6u6l
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8dXynPgu1
人若吸入，起初只會以為是尋常灰塵入肺，可那些孢子，會在人體內生根發芽。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dbHzynEN5
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9qz4b5R4k
它們寄生血肉，以宿主養分為食，感染者會越來越消瘦，無論吃多少東西，都永遠感覺飢餓，到了後期，甚至會餓到發狂。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDntFZ9CXka
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSLbpvBEIZ
然後，它還會傳染。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvetCYBNhOX
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2HB2MXDt3
咳嗽、口沫……都足以讓孢子蔓延。末世初期，不知多少聚落因此崩潰，人們活活餓死，瘋死，甚至易子而食。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYXxhmIb0G
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7MI8iXXMr
那段日子，整整持續了近一年，直到特效藥問世，局面才終於被控制。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqywkuqd7h
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrh3liSPPp
可那是在末世，在這個時代，這東西幾乎等同死疫。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShmpGdtZ39
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVSzOUI8CD
辛菲眼神一沉，沒有再停留，她迅速退出洞穴，動作快得幾乎沒有發出半點聲響，不到半個時辰，便重新回到了踏雪身邊。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Y1SLBuOjw
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0O8xMiMVVw
踏雪一看見她，立刻高興地湊過來蹭她，像是在確認她有沒有受傷，辛菲揉了揉牠的腦袋，原本緊繃的神情也微微鬆了幾分。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI86mJqMADT
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyK6YCIb88
「好了，回去了。」62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFRCpXBuuW
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsStXoG7lND
一人一馬很快離開山谷。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6fjL5LUEG
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGH5ebND9e
——62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmHdJ7c7u8
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgeQJwFD8J
回到客棧後，辛菲仔細洗漱數遍，連外衣都直接燒掉，直到深夜，她才靠坐在床邊，靜靜整理思緒。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDP59wfnlO
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGdl7iKKXF
骨枯散、魚獸，還有時空裂縫。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVsh7aySXL
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJupBLFhb5
一切終於慢慢串了起來。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDAAdNWGVL
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEUNRQJRGe
五十多年前，那場裂縫開啟時，顯然不只掉進來一隻魚獸；骨枯散恐怕也是當年被拋進這個世界的東西之一。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7qHgjHqcI
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fMPanPvVM
只是牠為何如今才出現？62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZBaWjhLmg
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvQFcGdwuU
辛菲閉上眼，迅速回憶骨枯散的特性。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9Yc6BrZp5
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavisYVbOgL
這東西本就有長期潛伏的習性，一旦環境不適，便會進入近似休眠的狀態，深埋地底，降低活性。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMBH568dqL
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUy4RYeMBdB
而這個時代的天地環境與末世截然不同，或許正因如此，它才沉睡了整整五十多年。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOvxY0mDng
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrYjaoxtfs
直到最近。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKC30IKEJ1c
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwccHNOyOn
裂縫再次出現，那股熟悉的污染波動，重新刺激了牠，於是沉眠半世紀的怪物，再度甦醒。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNgTD95Oh5
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthZBd22Fg2
想到這裡，辛菲胸口悶堵…因爲她又想起當年骨枯散第一次爆發時的景象…滿街瘦骨嶙峋的人，餓到雙眼發紅的百姓；有人啃樹皮、吃泥土，最後甚至開始吃人…那一年，人間像地獄。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIU9BG3kOTO
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerFjwQhMdD
而如今，骨枯散顯然還停留在幼生期，否則京城現在的情況，絕不只是消瘦與飢餓這麼簡單。真正進入成熟期的骨枯散，會讓感染者徹底失去理智，餓到發狂，甚至活活把自己與旁人逼成怪物。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtnBTtyyCc
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8U953uCyo3
可也正因為牠現在還在幼生期才更不能拖！一旦傳染範圍擴大，等孢子徹底成熟，整個京城都會失控。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEdhU2paV4
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjpsQb86ex
而現在，正是牠最脆弱的時候，趁牠還沒長成就得先把牠弄死！可同時，幼生期的骨枯散，也是活性最高的藥材。62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbf1Rq8fX6z
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUVJKBQ5Bs
辛菲眼底寒意漸深：「既然你以人血肉為食……」62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtlGddULwM
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOmxiC46M6
她低低開口，「那你的血肉，便拿來做解藥吧！」62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWlbRfMrJW
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBglo5LkR6O
房內燭火微微晃動，少女坐在昏黃燈影裡，眸色冷靜而鋒利，她已經決定，要親手把骨枯散斬草除根！
