夜色如墨，家家戶戶紛紛點起懸掛於外牆的水漣燈，水漣燈的光如清透水光，明亮了沁涼如水的恬靜夜晚。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpBUvPptAK

　　悄然來訪的綿綿細雨，在水面上掀起一波波微小漣漪，雨打荷葉的輕響幽微而空靈，於朦朧的江南煙雨天聽來格外清晰。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OixInXoo4
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzJZ8hswRv
　　這場雨已經連續下了七天七夜，對我們這些水生水長的連方鎮居民而言，可是身心舒暢的好日子，不少鎮民都會待在自家水閣裡賞荷聽雨，怡然自得。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdBQ4ad5TK
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhNtr2Wz9P
　　「漪洀，許久不見了，快坐下吧。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecg1qwUqdO
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebtO4qn2ij
　　在青門客棧的水閣內烹茶的清漣，姿態端雅地如同被雨水清洗的蓮花，他看見我的到來，便熱情地笑著招呼我。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLg2thVpdB
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL54THpk0W
　　我默默地頷首致意，坐在他對面的座位上。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHfZuv9RLe
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFPyrA4qaj
　　石桌上的茶水正被炭爐煮得暖熱，飄散出氤氳茶香，與被雨水洗得清透的淡淡蓮香，融混成更加悠遠清洌的芬芳。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmLSyVzknd
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGDdnFBgrs
　　「來到這了，先喝杯茶暖暖身吧。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡna8uzpr9JB
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxqR5k7JEp
　　清漣在我的青竹茶盞裡注入茶水，澄清的碧綠茶湯上浮盪著一枚淡粉蓮瓣，更顯雅致清趣。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVCeZ2HS1x
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIhGrOPSAQ
　　我沒有理由拒絕，清冽茶水滑入我口中的剎那，喉舌間便凝聚了一股頗具深韻的苦澀，但細嚐到底後，舒展開來的是滲入心脾的清透甘甜。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurTyQm1UDO
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBCGMwRZ0h
　　「你煮的蓮心清露，已經跟清波姨的不相上下了呢。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVgWntH1Tf
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHi5Mt1SaW
　　聽見我的感嘆之語，清漣的唇角勾起欣慰卻又些許苦澀的笑，說道：「娘親已經不在了，若我不能煮出來的話，這味道就要失傳了……」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9tG7y1Dut
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTQ3NwdmU6
　　語畢，沉默在我和清漣周遭悄悄蔓延，淅瀝瀝的雨聲在默然中迴響著。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0fyMTyi3U
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKxUGC9QID
　　三年前，清漣和涓兒成親後，我就搬離了青門客棧，不再當客棧的夥計。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nVfHQZDdz
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjr8q7zzS3F
　　我選擇在連方鎮偏僻的某處定居，成為舟夫替外來客擺渡以餬口，避免與清漣有過多接觸。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVWhc7Yo3J
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAv7Qgu8XeM
　　清漣似乎看出我對他的刻意迴避，他沒有向我深究原因，把心思都放在青門客棧和妻子身上，我和清漣也愈漸疏離。過去十幾年親密無間的情誼，被歲月的匆匆流逝給輕易沖淡。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1nvidLqVD
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsts6TMbnwf
　　這幾年來，即使無法化解的苦悶於胸口不斷積累沉澱，這樣的距離卻讓我獲得了心靈的寧靜，我可以學著慢慢放下這段情思，讓將來的自己能笑著說，對清漣的這份情愛只是年少輕狂的誤解罷了。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6otEf7tRd
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy2KRX80C7
　　但是今夜，清漣主動邀我到青門客棧品茶敘舊，不尋常的邀約讓我心底湧起強烈的不安，但隱然生出一絲的期盼，卻又讓我前來赴約……653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0v0eNJ6Xst
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrlRFNTe75
　　「漪洀，如今你過得好嗎？舟夫的工作應該很操勞吧。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlOwv16ti3
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyDaM3ER0i
　　清漣首先打破靜默，而我則輕啜一口茶，淡淡地道：「還好，工作再辛勞，習慣了便沒什麼，反正日子總得過下去……」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlYpDt0hZO
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ammssMvRf
　　雖然這些年不是沒跟清漣見過面，但像這樣坐下來好好說話卻是少見，我偷偷覷看清漣幾眼，他的眉眼已擺脫年少時期的青澀稚嫩，多了幾分成熟穩重的韻味，舉手投足間展現內在本質的清俊秀雅，讓我的目光依依不捨地在他身上流連徘徊。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxK5866pXs
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBkOM99ujT
　　此時我才驚覺，我對清漣的情意不但沒有消退，反而蘊積得更加深重，在看見他時一股腦傾瀉而出。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwKL3e2h2W
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr51MW9j0Zp
　　難以抑止的情思滿漲於胸口，這般糾纏著我的冤孽魔障，如同無底泥沼，終究令我陷溺而向下沉淪，此生無法脫離了嗎……？653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCk8AmBnbT
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3H5n912sic
　　縱使內心是千頭萬緒的洶湧澎湃，我卻將其壓抑在平靜淡漠的表情之下，不讓清漣察覺到我的糾結心思。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrUBRBcUjN
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0kPa8LKiT
　　「是嗎，你覺得好就好了。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmcE2pJknV
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYDpENrttn
　　對於我故作淡漠的回應，清漣露出釋懷似的神情，將目光投向水閣外的雨幕濛濛。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFTeJp6O8I
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5B7Sj2NQ9s
　　「以前你剛來這的時候，還老是懊惱自己學不會渡舟，但過沒多久，你的渡舟仙法就使得比我還行了。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDdh6zyAIU
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzRZXLWZB4
　　「那時你總是晃悠悠地渡著蓮舟，而我就坐在你的蓮舟上頭，天南地北地說著各種故事軼聞，一同行遍連方鎮裡的每條水路。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXB0GTFsGE
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBLW1O8bUp
　　「然後等到天完全黑了，我們就點著水漣燈回家，回到家後娘親都會叨唸我們一番，卻又已經煮好了夜宵給我們，就怕我們餓著了……」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvo7CP1P6S
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHjdDyMSwy
　　清漣低啞的聲音滿溢懷思，宛若悠悠流水，溯回遙遠歲月的彼岸653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FyHuiIfUJ
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXse8lFjUQ
　　「那些，已是好久好久以前的往事了。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5Z4cIFPCl
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdlmPA0DM0
　　我淡然地提醒清漣，那段無憂無慮的日子，是我們已然回不去的往昔。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3CGHznz32
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFtwl6caDm
　　「是啊，你說得對。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCM014yxBU
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44TqzZ2f81
　　清漣從我的話裡明白了，他的心緒從記憶彼端回到當下，那一雙清明澈亮的瞳眸正對著我。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxapZB3AFB
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MUibBYn4q
　　那一刻，一道細微漣漪，在我死寂已久的心湖悄悄擴大。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0No07tTAo
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrhwEsEXIN
　　「漪洀，我有件事想拜託你。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbtQCtPBPO
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiezXKCxk5
　　「什麼事，先說吧。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsDC0yJ4YF
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXQndGTwZf
　　我沒有直接答應清漣，因為清漣的態度誠懇而嚴肅，卻隱然透著一股訣別的堅決，讓我心裡生出一絲憂慮。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡayQcFiUwQA
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡox0c48apRi
　　「我想拜託你，在我離開這裡之後，替我照顧涓兒。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghe4ZhIvty
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpSbMxJm5Q
　　如同一道猛雷直劈我的腦袋，我愣了半晌說不出話。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4QkEW36TA
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKsjWzZ7Pm
　　過了許久，我發出近乎嘶啞的聲音：「你要去哪裡？你找我來，就只是為了說這個嗎？」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrs3PWPFZGZ
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wncspVXLm
　　「漪洀，你現在還不知道吧，我們黃朝與西方異族的戰爭，已經蔓延到武陵山南方來了。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVc0FBlzJK
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyMnwHYZgJ
　　「這是前幾日投宿在我們客棧的京城商人帶來的消息，據說前方戰事吃緊，黃朝軍節節敗退，死傷慘重。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5i0Rhrrj1b
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4oRYuMP54
　　清廉語重心長地說道，神情無比凝重，我已經隱約察覺到這番話背後所代表的含意……653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPl0anzEueB
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CPBn9KoMj
　　「再過不久，朝廷就要徵召新的兵源了，之前我們連方鎮因地處偏遠，所以沒有受到徵召，但我想這次徵兵令就會來到我們這了。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefUD2mtagC
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YTwFgBcoK
　　「連方鎮裡所有入籍的男丁應該會被徵召入伍，但漪洀你不同，你是從外地來的孤兒，籍冊上不會有你的名字，你也不會被徵召。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XNLAbwnrE
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡby9pTlnnVp
　　「所以我想拜託你，在我入伍後替我照顧涓兒，現在涓兒有了身孕，留下她一人在這，我始終放心不下啊。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SmPZRAmIx
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiVe9NhnSo
　　「這是我對你，最後的請求……」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbLEFTotAB
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFC8KiEzZ7Y
　　清漣極為哀戚地低聲懇求，坦露出最真實的軟弱及無奈。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfejZByy5yY
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoYDM9lfqK
　　我默默的聽他說完，然後面無表情地冷然道：「你以為我會像以前那般，答應你的任何要求嗎？」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV2ENNdGvd
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMaQ69t1sL
　　清漣在那一瞬面露愕然，料想不到我會這般斬釘截鐵地拒絕他。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDI9ixzpfOY
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hrsF1q0Gk
　　「我知道我對你有所虧欠，但你忍心涓兒受苦嗎？」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTUcOXjSyw
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrysIxhU0Z
　　「這話什麼意思？」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiwZMdTGgN
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJzkLD1epr
　　我感到不太對勁，風雨欲來山滿樓的強烈不安充塞我的內心。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6Ih4ln7WJ
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nofXtFYhk
　　「我明白的，漪洀，其實你對涓兒，是有情的吧……」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodXOYvnCG3
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazkimXthfD
　　伴隨這句話朝我襲來的洶湧激流，將我整個人徹底吞沒。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUQ26HHHjH
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4NrIgj4a6
　　雖然清漣滿載哀愁的清俊面龐在我眼底無比清晰，但我的心裡卻是昏黑一片，無法多作思慮，只能用嘶啞低沉的聲音，從乾澀得發緊的喉間擠出沉重的疑問：「你為什麼……會如此想？」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlmjRb5us7
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3ueGTvtTs
　　「其實很久以前，我就害怕涓兒會對你萌生情意，所以才會想先對涓兒表明心意。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0I739zVFG
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfd7SMROYT
　　「但自從我和涓兒在一起後，你整個人就變得不太舒坦，抑鬱寡歡，像是不想看到我和涓兒走得太近。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLrqj8nk9c
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSa6oDugOz
　　「所以我就察覺到你對涓兒有情，但我卻選擇忽略你的感受，因為我是真心喜歡涓兒。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDBZsZ1bVj
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57uQ4ydGTb
　　「然而你卻因為顧慮我，一直隱忍下來，甚至在我和涓兒成親後，獨自搬離客棧。這一切都是我逼你的……我對不起你……」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQalcBaZ1E
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6m7ixduM1
　　清漣鏗鏘有力的音調，把他深藏多年的心聲說得真真切切，他的一字一句都在緊掐著我的心房。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmmNqm80So
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoSpwpK6yF
　　我的劇烈心跳是無聲的吶喊，我想叫清漣不要再說了，卻發現自己發不出一點聲音。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fhqtjHHrf
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjgCFFfGls
　　「你這一生都不會原諒我也沒關係，但如果你還對涓兒有一絲憐惜，在我走後，就請你替我……」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGt0refhzp
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KoYQlVx1a
　　「不，清漣，你始終什麼都不明白。」653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwayrV2Qkp9
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7HdTQh9Re
　　我冷冷吐出的這句話像猛然丟進水裡的小石子，在深靜清幽的雨夜，在清漣的雙眸中，掀起困惑驚疑的重重波紋。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SzQ3N3A4x
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZ0w9JUfv4
　　我近乎偏執地凝視那滄桑俊雅的面容，一股油然而生的衝動，令我想對他宣洩蘊藏多年的深深情思，義無反顧地投身進那雙清澈如水的眼眸中，即使會就此溺斃也無所謂……653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMhWDcSWIR
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1b6y6gqTc
　　但，一切都只是空想。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4n7vj0ErjE
653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1XTmjVK2c
　　我逕自起身踏出青門客棧的大門，將那杯還留有餘溫的蓮心清露，清漣的聲聲挽留，盡數拋在身後，只留下空寂的淅淅雨聲以及最後無言的道別。653Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6hPRcZTKg
