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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVEZrv4vVq
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOGdhF5V1g
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28Nf3ymFfb
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJCfX8BDgD
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPpiHv34B3
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxnTRrGSas
　　「漪洀，許久不見了，快坐下吧。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUJ7l49F9Q
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevmHDfGZPm
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisj4bbxQ2j
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDLWuAjvcx
　　我默默地頷首致意，坐在他對面的座位上。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcxx6xHQ3t
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu7UD3GPiN
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqbs1gWedW
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIkHioh4PH
　　「來到這了，先喝杯茶暖暖身吧。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTB1oFYcUqe
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIIayovImh
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfO10QDF2Xg
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMXvG6fp8b
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xRMdb4jDQ
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkdIiYSr90
　　「你煮的蓮心清露，已經跟清波姨的不相上下了呢。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtZ7ThUeZx
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqW2jHhFY35
　　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……」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclpMAptaec
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gAdq2iXdM
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx3rzlvHMQ
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOTLS6w7Bb
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1UoMblrlI
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodGuYjaZdb
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2ABnw55Mu
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVpq1wBhEN
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDap53OmAWw
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVE4UWPZO37
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1J0FWqYhx
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfql8pIhxzF
　　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……406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB04jxXoCzk
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTUlu5ZnI1
　　「漪洀，如今你過得好嗎？舟夫的工作應該很操勞吧。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOPrjL5VgR
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HAkuGKx2L
　　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……」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBnVsxhgUm
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxInQ93VPF
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeu8XjuycWn
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3XiU2fN6Y
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmAIhlaOlv
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoQg5XP5Tx
　　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……？406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7o1X9F3bOR
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kBzDgN8uH
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhxGLQ6jG2
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vaHbX1zEO
　　「是嗎，你覺得好就好了。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF39IRaMpX1
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIX1dOAhcA
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTG9qGDfXD
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWy7lnjMdt
　　「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。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF0h3dg57r
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3NrzPNFcF
　　「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。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpZtOfxnwW
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl00MTxAuTA
　　「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……」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrV0fYp1WR
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjbNbVVvpF
　　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406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcLNgtPA7e
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfO5GHDnrBT
　　「那些，已是好久好久以前的往事了。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Hf625cUe6
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6oxBNHT34
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIM4P8jsrC
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jwoQCFkVm
　　「是啊，你說得對。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmLHXsdnE0
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqyEYiErtf
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXYY4e2tmF
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7s4msBjNB
　　那一刻，一道細微漣漪，在我死寂已久的心湖悄悄擴大。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszNFJNBAYV
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3BdcMLY6h
　　「漪洀，我有件事想拜託你。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWVjfn884P
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEflaNdlhs
　　「什麼事，先說吧。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BKnVIcxex
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LgFWVxcVl
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiPepiFDxC
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObDGG2qt0J
　　「我想拜託你，在我離開這裡之後，替我照顧涓兒。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIv9JN8kfb
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddOJa5tgAj
　　如同一道猛雷直劈我的腦袋，我愣了半晌說不出話。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iEndwEu2P
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFmAc4kSHe
　　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？」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6rjqTLr7F
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrL1TSbmuU
　　「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。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGj9PgBsF8
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXkiQk67qb
　　「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。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJ1xDfZ8Ol
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwK59P6oZU
　　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……406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllIrnL76nB
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbsePV0V3I
　　「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。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bCzeTyGWB
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpC32a46Vf
　　「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。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4clNTA2hcK
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pXJt7ioXq
　　「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。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡug0yPhoebd
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrz7ul3ViGU
　　「這是我對你，最後的請求……」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5y7vT5CASZ
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuve52A9vhX
　　清漣極為哀戚地低聲懇求，坦露出最真實的軟弱及無奈。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr6ykYyjsQ
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq97xAomDa
　　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？」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoRcmY8exc
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0P9yxTBVl
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtQI64xKdC
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YTJzkHnuB
　　「我知道我對你有所虧欠，但你忍心涓兒受苦嗎？」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtXq3JugHD
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjV5vnkxzj
　　「這話什麼意思？」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJK5Y5ausEQ
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJmmdhZPIW
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Qa0AuvtoI
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1iPXrRnzb
　　「我明白的，漪洀，其實你對涓兒，是有情的吧……」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmaPNgIYZH
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnrezvupJy
　　伴隨這句話朝我襲來的洶湧激流，將我整個人徹底吞沒。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXAo9V4OjL
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnCNjsF7Mp
　　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？」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5whkbF44O
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UB1lh2hs8
　　「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。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhX3ttIlL6
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGsZ3DEjlC
　　「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。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfWq2YoLhe
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKJysoXVj8
　　「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。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpscHhDdrL
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12ToJ3P6iL
　　「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……」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIflbcNJjP
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBy8Tb3Qndw
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPibDVC5wo
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhnc3DRYQC
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsStIecqiCZ
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0sgBj0A5w
　　「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……」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8iyUG2Z7b
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfobJID2rFm
　　「不，清漣，你始終什麼都不明白。」406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ387Qhfd316
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMrc0abnIe
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvVaWiICQJ
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmKcc7pNvK
　　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……406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rqhZJFmco
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8hIwtG7td
　　但，一切都只是空想。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp0H0rFjAn
406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxOgKCgM5M
　　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。406Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUyMLL12dS
