睜開雙眼,映入眼底的是烏雲密布的陰冷天空,奄奄一息的我躺臥於一艘破船裡隨江水漂流,不斷落下的冷冷細雨,攜著蝕入膚骨的寒意,無情地打在我佈滿傷痕的瘦弱身軀上。369Please respect copyright.PENANAv4u2WCF3VS
369Please respect copyright.PENANABjrION1ai3
前天我和一群乞丐在討飯的時候,一名路過的富商見我年紀最小,心生憐憫就隨手多塞了幾枚銀子給我。但他離開後,其他老乞丐見到我多得的銀子,便紅了眼,氣勢洶洶地撲打過來要搶我的錢。369Please respect copyright.PENANARK4sIt4UuQ
369Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4ZsHaXk41
但即使被他們毒打狠踹,我骨子裡的硬脾氣就是不肯屈服,我死命緊抓著銀子不放,並找到機會狠狠咬了其中一名乞丐的大腿,推開其他乞丐趁機逃跑。369Please respect copyright.PENANA4LkOSJJveZ
369Please respect copyright.PENANA5sEhwgd8cw
那些乞丐當然不肯善罷干休,向一群瘋狗般死命追趕著我,我就這樣一路逃到河岸邊,情急之下,我跳進繫在岸邊的破爛小船,駛向江心逃離了他們,但我討的銀子也就這麼掉進河裡,只有留下滿身大大小小的傷口。369Please respect copyright.PENANAvak9sbjBmv
369Please respect copyright.PENANAeVyx34zzhf
本來我就過著有一餐沒一餐的苦日子,逃到船上後更是滴水未沾粒米未進,受重傷的羸弱身體早快到了極限。369Please respect copyright.PENANAbc2icZhqSg
369Please respect copyright.PENANA7bjAx6AzHb
雖然經過了幾處可停靠的岸灣,但我始終都沒有把船划過去,因為不論去哪裡,都沒有屬於我的歸處。369Please respect copyright.PENANA97O3WCg6So
369Please respect copyright.PENANAzNYnGoFLLD
我赤條條的降生於這世間,從沒見過自己的爹娘一眼,從有記憶開始就過著乞討維生的日子,不知道自己的年紀,卻看盡了世間人情冷暖。369Please respect copyright.PENANA3JXyDYJ6uQ
369Please respect copyright.PENANAF8Hctt3PvL
就像前幾天的乞丐們,一開始他們充滿善意地接納我成為一份子,還會分我一些殘羹剩肴,然而見了我的銀子後卻瞬間變了臉,發狠地把我往死命裡打。369Please respect copyright.PENANA5flijNcRzs
369Please respect copyright.PENANAr7RU0PplEF
我不想花費心神去恨他們,因為我所見過的人也大都是這樣,這世態炎涼,大抵就是如此了。369Please respect copyright.PENANAxVVISUDM1d
369Please respect copyright.PENANASAygY68dls
我就像漂泊於天地間的浮萍,無所依托的孤弱,就這麼無聲無息地死去,也是再正常不過的事了,這樣也好,不會再餓肚子也不會覺得疼了。369Please respect copyright.PENANA71g7W9iZmM

我緩緩閉上雙眼,靜待微弱呼吸徹底停息的那一刻。369Please respect copyright.PENANALHpuduSJPo
369Please respect copyright.PENANA87sKdQrSlP
但就在此時,我卻隱然感到有股陌生的力量反抗著江水流向,推動了載著我的破船往岸邊靠攏。369Please respect copyright.PENANA1EUBHEJ5HD

369Please respect copyright.PENANA829ydZM0s8
與雨水浸透全身的寒冷截然不同,一股屬於生命脈動的暖意,撫貼在我被雨淋濕的臉龐上,我撐起沉重的眼皮,看見了一名和我年紀差不多大的男童湊到我面前。369Please respect copyright.PENANAZYgVMz0fE8
369Please respect copyright.PENANAhvKXOJ16FE

我身下躺臥的軟柔床榻,身上的乾淨衣衫,身處的陳設簡樸的臥房,還有室內飄散的清透水氣,融混若有似無的淨逸花香,陌生的景物讓我不知自己身於何處,猶若身在幻夢中。369Please respect copyright.PENANArdHQW8D7Iu

「這碗蓮子粥是我偷偷去客棧的小廚房裡煮的,不過這是我第一次下廚,可能味道不怎麼樣就是。」生得清秀的眉眼彎得笑吟吟的,他捧著一碗熱呼呼的東西朝我走來,然後一屁股坐在我床邊的凳椅上。369Please respect copyright.PENANAoOzC86BVe2
369Please respect copyright.PENANAX6p22Gsrew
那碗粥冒出的氤氳熱氣攜著淡雅香氣,徹底勾起了我的食慾,餓得兩眼發直的我不管三七二十一,逕自從他手中搶過那碗粥,大口大口把粥的扒進嘴裡。369Please respect copyright.PENANAP2iBxeMvUI

被燙得舌頭發麻的我嘗不出什麼細緻的滋味,黏糊糊的熱粥裡,有些米飯沒有熟甚至還結了塊,但是再豐盛的珍饈佳餚,也比不上現在紓解我飢餓的這碗清粥。369Please respect copyright.PENANA322QVne5hT

見我把粥吃得碗底朝天得乾淨,他就連珠炮似地問我一連串的問題,偏偏我的頭還有點昏沉地脹痛,一時之間不知如何回應。369Please respect copyright.PENANARDaCVMGMq4
369Please respect copyright.PENANAZEX344lDrM
「為什麼……你要救我?」369Please respect copyright.PENANAhi5vyycAU7

我從些許乾澀的喉間擠出沙啞的聲音,不自覺道出心中最初的困惑。369Please respect copyright.PENANARqvsbhgT6E
369Please respect copyright.PENANA7oWtkCBKuO
「為什麼?有什麼好問的,不然你要誰救你啊?」他理直氣壯地把這件事說得是天經地義,反而疑惑我怎麼會問出這怪問題。369Please respect copyright.PENANArPjJBmY0wP
369Please respect copyright.PENANAnwDGICFiui
「可是,我身上沒有什麼東西可以給你……」369Please respect copyright.PENANAkI13pUOnuA
369Please respect copyright.PENANATrIkVVaAGl
我還是想不透他為什麼要救一個來歷不明的陌生人,他看起來就是衣食無虞的好人家的孩子,照理說不會想要搭理一個滿身破爛的小乞丐吧,意識到這點的我,在他面前感到自慚形穢。369Please respect copyright.PENANAu0kDyHkzr6
369Please respect copyright.PENANA6UrkfIs3j7
「這還用你說,我當然看得出來啊,你這人可真怪耶。」他卻毫不在意地咧嘴而笑,對我露出潔白皓齒。369Please respect copyright.PENANAROZ0JXiPtx

369Please respect copyright.PENANABFuosQRtoD
「這個……」我回憶起那些乞丐分我剩飯的和善笑容,以及毒打我的狠戾表情,想說的話就硬生生地堵在喉頭,他看見我難過的神情,便搖頭說道:「好吧好吧,不想說就不問你了。¬」369Please respect copyright.PENANAy1SzL0aaGX

「該不會是傷得太重,把頭也給撞了,把什麼事都全忘記了?」他一臉驚訝,像遇到珍奇異獸似地不敢置信地望著我。369Please respect copyright.PENANAvIvdc7SmFr
369Please respect copyright.PENANARblG1DqiO6
「我不是忘了,我是真的什麼都沒有……」說這句話時,我的心底湧起一股莫名的酸楚,雖然是心裡早就明白的事實,但當化作言語說出口時,卻比想像中難受。369Please respect copyright.PENANAxdn0CSRRXc

我還沒反應過來,他就自顧自地接著說道:「漪洀,你就叫做漪洀吧,我的名字是清漣,我們的名字是一對兒的,合起來就是『輕舟漣漪』,很有趣吧。」他親暱地喊著幫我取我的名字,凝視我的圓潤水眸涵著雨過天霽的明淨光采。369Please respect copyright.PENANAugDjC20MYh

清波姨的關切慰問讓我倍感暖心,清波姨是清漣的娘親,當初清漣帶我來到青門客棧,清波姨憐憫孤苦無依的我,便收留我做客棧的伙計。369Please respect copyright.PENANAjGof6c2BQY

這家青門客棧是連方鎮內唯一的一間客棧,由於連方鎮位處南方偏鄉之地,平常只有途經南嶺的商旅或隨處漂泊的行客會前來投宿,清波姨家代代經營客棧,就是為了讓行經連方鎮的過客有個歇腳之處。369Please respect copyright.PENANAWsr4zpnQt2
369Please respect copyright.PENANAZzBcbgpXKg

「真是的,現在娘親都比較疼妳,反而一直叨唸我這親兒子。」369Please respect copyright.PENANA4bqfB2wwDX
369Please respect copyright.PENANAlOKFtHia3x
「那是因為你懶惰不做事,才老惹清波姨生氣。」369Please respect copyright.PENANAY97LPZBZ7Q

我和清漣兩人就坐在棧橋上,擺晃雙腳在水面上濺起一波波水花,我們一搭一唱地說說笑笑,一邊數著水岸旁盛開的蓮花。369Please respect copyright.PENANA8j7WJtBVmL
369Please respect copyright.PENANAT0Tg0drll0
自從被收留在青門客棧後,我和年紀相仿的清漣很快成為親密無間的好友,我們就像親兄弟一樣,總是形影不離的玩在一起。369Please respect copyright.PENANAQjNL7ktFU4
369Please respect copyright.PENANAnCibHKfGp7
「對了,漪洀,現在就讓我看看你的『渡舟』練得如何吧。」369Please respect copyright.PENANAoRXOJ868iU
369Please respect copyright.PENANABFLLkO3yIw
清漣二話不說就拉著我跳上蓮舟,蓮舟是連方鎮裡行駛水道的專用船種,船身較短且船頭高翹,形似蓮花花瓣,是用浸泡於蓮花水液中七天七夜的實木加以打造而成,因此船身隱約透發一股淡雅清香。369Please respect copyright.PENANAXQS71CnEK2
369Please respect copyright.PENANA4rLBpR0OZU
「好吧,我試試。」369Please respect copyright.PENANAjQf2Mzfppu
369Please respect copyright.PENANAZDWrAZaOxN
此刻我和清漣坐在同一艘蓮舟裡,我試著運用自身法力,讓江水能自然推移蓮舟向前航行。369Please respect copyright.PENANAidE3fhtoYS
369Please respect copyright.PENANACo2WvfaPv2
首先要屏氣凝神感知江水的流動,再用法力凝聚水流,並導引至適當方向。這種渡舟仙法雖然在連方鎮裡幾乎人人都會,但要徹底學起來不是件容易之事。沒有固定型態的水流不易掌握,注入法力若太過會令江水凝滯而無法流動,太少又會使江水往其他方向流散開。我學習渡舟的時間已有數十日,所能做到的程度只有聚攏水流而已。369Please respect copyright.PENANAqBLGhgbNGe
369Please respect copyright.PENANA3qCQJ6HCzj
「不錯啊,漪洀你已經能操控水流的方向了呢。」清漣觀察在蓮舟附近流轉的水痕波紋,興奮地喊道。369Please respect copyright.PENANA7hyXjViFrw
369Please respect copyright.PENANAhJKyPs1Gu1
「但我覺得我沒什麼進步。」369Please respect copyright.PENANANhHGmozZax
369Please respect copyright.PENANAOXb7KcEp2H
我有些沮喪,即使我嘗試讓江水推移蓮舟,但蓮舟還是靜靜浮於水面,不見絲毫動靜。369Please respect copyright.PENANAGyuZ5oB9mS
369Please respect copyright.PENANA5U6QxCb58W
「哪有,你已經算厲害的了,我想再過半年,你就能完全學會了。」369Please respect copyright.PENANAkDJNzHXdjc
369Please respect copyright.PENANAJtUEI56jqh
一股穩健有力的水流開始推送蓮舟前行,當初清漣就是用這仙法,把我連人帶船送上岸邊。369Please respect copyright.PENANA8sZH6WWBUw
369Please respect copyright.PENANA84zw01kd6w
清漣悠閒地哼著小調,隨性躺臥於蓮舟船板上,相較於我方才吃力卻無用的模樣,我不禁感到些許懊惱。369Please respect copyright.PENANAUoDUEPDmlh
369Please respect copyright.PENANAh1mp230uPi
「幹嘛這副表情,說不定以後你比我還行呢。」369Please respect copyright.PENANAHsQkmqYh1Z
369Please respect copyright.PENANASAjfwHUYBy
清漣拍拍我的肩,他爽朗的笑容掃去我煩悶的心緒。369Please respect copyright.PENANAoutNspbPe0
369Please respect copyright.PENANAGDyeht4oWk
「漪洀,以後我們就一起去連方鎮外面遊歷旅行吧。」369Please respect copyright.PENANAP4ZvQGHZQH
369Please respect copyright.PENANAQMFxxs5N5P
「清漣,你在說笑吧?」369Please respect copyright.PENANADe173d8d4B
369Please respect copyright.PENANAehfkeUcVgC
我以為這又是清漣隨口說的玩笑話,想不到他收斂起平常玩鬧的神情,一臉認真地說:「我是說真的,而且因為有你,我才這麼說的。」369Please respect copyright.PENANATRWKbgxfd3
369Please respect copyright.PENANAILtuBqiRHS
「因為我?」369Please respect copyright.PENANArO0UnKZnMa
369Please respect copyright.PENANA6MqoMFuPD2
我藏不住臉上驚訝的表情,清漣將目光放向江水流逝的盡頭,若有所思地娓娓道來:「我從小在客棧裡長大,見過不少外地來的旅客,他們總是會跟我說連方鎮外面的風光。」369Please respect copyright.PENANArbsPi4hL05
369Please respect copyright.PENANAwvJpMaFtBB
「綿延千里的高聳群山,蒼茫壯闊的西域大漠,還有那傳說中的浩瀚滄海,繁華熱鬧的京城大都,好多好多我們這看不到的人事物,不管我聽得再多都難以想像,只能用紙筆把他們說的風景跟故事一一記錄下來。雖然有時會想親眼去看看,但也只是空想,我也捨不得娘親和連方鎮的大家。」369Please respect copyright.PENANATZ22ZSnTmt
369Please respect copyright.PENANAlWrxmu92nT
「但自從你來到這之後,我想到外面去的想法就越來越強烈,我想像宋伯伯一樣當個說書人,一邊說著各地的故事,一邊暢遊天涯海角。」369Please respect copyright.PENANAApRQLnyqXb
369Please respect copyright.PENANAAak8n4ZiK9
說到此處,他的目光從不知名的遠方回到我的身上。369Please respect copyright.PENANAWJwwP3icSC
369Please respect copyright.PENANAKQ8xDeckkh
「以前大概是覺得一個人的旅程太過孤單,所以從沒想過要去外頭,但現在我有你一起作伴了。」369Please respect copyright.PENANArXEXWbAhNs
369Please respect copyright.PENANAlXU9rsIokv
「等我們長大,你也學會渡舟了,我們就一起駛著小船,遨遊五湖四海,覽盡天下風光,之後再回到連方鎮,把我們的經歷見聞說給大家聽吧。」369Please respect copyright.PENANAVH4pyyyem4
369Please respect copyright.PENANAHkY3364Sd1
他熱誠殷切的握住我的雙手,遞來在那天的淒冷細雨中同樣的暖熱,他凝視我的眼眸是清澈見底的明亮。369Please respect copyright.PENANAbYoEoygzsq
369Please respect copyright.PENANAPMiUYka5qj
清漣和我不一樣,他自幼生長於純樸敦厚的水鄉小鎮,又受娘親和鎮民們慈愛對待,養育出天然純善的無瑕性情,絲毫沒有沾染過世間的醜惡疾苦。369Please respect copyright.PENANAacXObDp9Yz
369Please respect copyright.PENANAgOT88Q3FlS
而我從小就在最髒濁不堪的塵世中打滾,清漣憧憬的外界天地,對我來說卻充滿淒涼苦澀的記憶。369Please respect copyright.PENANAH3NwEk0Ki2
369Please respect copyright.PENANANBPg3dflfP
直到清漣把我帶到連方鎮這世外仙境,這裡的蓮香水氣以及溫厚人情,洗盡了我前生的汙塵濁泥,讓我真真正正地在這人世間重新活過來,我一點也不想離開這兒。369Please respect copyright.PENANAWkIUuV1OUn
369Please respect copyright.PENANAjyJ7A0XMhU
「好的,以後我們就一起去吧。」369Please respect copyright.PENANAU4SwIRqBEp
369Please respect copyright.PENANAIIVmoqw05s
但我如何讓他明白我曾受過的苦楚,又怎麼能拒絕他如此真摯的盼望,清漣是我生命中的貴人,也是我最要好的兄弟,反正以後他想去哪裡,我就跟著他,拚命護著他便是。369Please respect copyright.PENANAN9fReDB6i9
369Please respect copyright.PENANA1lD2A8HRdo
在清淨得彷彿只有我和清漣兩人的遼闊天地間,我暗自在心底道出堅守一生的誓約。
