附近的居民把這個地方叫做蝴蝶谷。162Please respect copyright.PENANA81YBPA4u4Y
162Please respect copyright.PENANA6dH6f4Qmn7
162Please respect copyright.PENANAyfwdv7snQu
谷的本身是一個天然洞穴,只看得見洞口附近,但光線總會沒入不見底的墨色中。162Please respect copyright.PENANAUCKaMzLGPW
162Please respect copyright.PENANAZfYt4uZRkb
人們說那裡面有一朵純白色的花,可以起死回生。大約每隔十年,就會有一大批的蝴蝶從山谷中衝出,沒錯,是「衝出」這樣沒有美感的說法,彷彿被禁錮了許久,終於獲得自由、迫不及待的那種渴望。162Please respect copyright.PENANAnkeuAs7E1G
162Please respect copyright.PENANAplLtmyFaRJ
「還真是可怕喲,像天災要降臨一樣。」162Please respect copyright.PENANAKFDwlhBUqO
162Please respect copyright.PENANANLb5SC4tXm
「唉,但要做這樣選擇的人,也真的是可憐命苦啊。」162Please respect copyright.PENANA6t9uwE4oft
162Please respect copyright.PENANAMOzqOmfx1y
我噙住笑,這世上有太多未可知的地方,卻沒有處處都人滿為患、三天兩頭充斥著訪客,很多時候是透過這些少數的附近居民對「神祕力量」提供親身說法,不過看來人們選擇在逝去中撫平傷痛,還是比拿命來抵的多。162Please respect copyright.PENANAsiuXsgtwHr
162Please respect copyright.PENANAtZmgrN8Lrv
這並非在指責不選擇後者的人,那不過是在岔路上挑能接受的去走罷了。162Please respect copyright.PENANAGuEGeTbxOO
162Please respect copyright.PENANAWvqP47wqtI
「畢竟即使如此,每個人也只能救一次啊。」也不是頭一回聽見這種說詞,我搖搖頭,是有些無奈。162Please respect copyright.PENANAozA6DzKgz2
162Please respect copyright.PENANAmhyNmmNLdv
知道危險的地方、隔著該處一段距離觀望,和實際踏足其上,是三種不同的情況。我會說居民們之所以有某種近似信仰卻又畏懼的心態,是因為他們確實有看過蝴蝶,但卻沒見過從那裡回來的人,如此推測也是合情合理。162Please respect copyright.PENANANBq2gPyVpB
162Please respect copyright.PENANAEJyGLVULqp
說到底,他們其實不完全清楚蝴蝶谷。162Please respect copyright.PENANAmirYBfwllU
162Please respect copyright.PENANA9r0Nn4toj0
可探險總是這樣,不是嗎?從沒有生還者的地方歸返,是最常見的傳奇背景了。162Please respect copyright.PENANAu9AMVhsMG3
162Please respect copyright.PENANAGkNEtk3VVJ
162Please respect copyright.PENANAiZZsgwHkVk
不,那不是傳說。162Please respect copyright.PENANA6iqEjZZmPc
162Please respect copyright.PENANAoxy1yy96xE
他用手電筒照進谷中,光線沒入無止盡的黑暗,谷底彷彿傳來幽冷的風聲,仔細一聽又如哀怨的低鳴,但回神靠近卻好像又什麼也沒有。162Please respect copyright.PENANA4JRaq8333v
162Please respect copyright.PENANAEJ5aG9tIRj
他做了個深呼吸,小心翼翼地繫好麻繩,沿著洞穴壁攀爬而下,每一步都是如此謹慎,直到四周盡是幽深,而他孤立如一盞風中殘燭。162Please respect copyright.PENANA7HlnupRABs
162Please respect copyright.PENANAB2AgK2IY84
光線無法照亮身邊太大範圍,只勉強能看見四周壁上攀著疏落的深色爬藤,他艱難地避開那些詭異的植物,但還是讓某幾條從背後垂落的氣根搔上鼻尖,忍不住打了噴嚏,腳下便一個踩空,幸好他及時抓緊繩子和穩住腳步。162Please respect copyright.PENANAXdr2eqJ9Sg
162Please respect copyright.PENANAP0Efy4Yjag
「呼……呼……」他心裡不由自主萌生打道回府的念頭,有個微弱的聲音告訴他現在停下,時猶未晚。162Please respect copyright.PENANAgo4JReZzeQ
162Please respect copyright.PENANA1UgjSRWeoM
他疲憊的神態看來是有些心力交瘁,從灰頭土臉的衣著與滿臉鬍渣,亦不難想像先前他是如何跋山涉水而來。162Please respect copyright.PENANAeHsWiwobX6
162Please respect copyright.PENANA97dGyYGBH1
「好吧,再往下一點看看就好。」他想。162Please respect copyright.PENANALsjlPwbtHd
162Please respect copyright.PENANA5MyF9a3wcf
就在帶來的麻繩也快見底前,像谷底的地方終於到達。162Please respect copyright.PENANA4N2mEtUQRL
162Please respect copyright.PENANA0Fh3KpWfTd
他依然不敢大意,先輕輕踩了踩地面,確認是紮實的,才放心踏上。162Please respect copyright.PENANAOWGiXpL0O8
162Please respect copyright.PENANAxHwaF8Vu0y
162Please respect copyright.PENANAldjpxKW3kU
此時,他居然看見了,那朵純白的花,小小的,搖曳著,像初雪那樣。162Please respect copyright.PENANA1r1qS0FTnT
162Please respect copyright.PENANAQqFVCpHI1q
他被它所擁有的美麗給震懾;他為它所散發的光華而著迷,他不禁心中開朗起來,越走越近。他不知道那小白花的枝葉已蔓延在他周圍,連一聲「啊」都來不及發出就死了。162Please respect copyright.PENANAottkAF0oxn
162Please respect copyright.PENANAeNMRuTL4Qs
花朵瞬間變大而成血紅,將他包覆吞食,屍骨溶解無存,靈魂經過反芻,當花苞展開,只剩下一隻米黃色的蝴蝶,帶著深紫色的斑點,翩然飛出。162Please respect copyright.PENANAwKb0SlnbPN
162Please respect copyright.PENANAbSLTb87bjw
血紅色的食人花,又恢復成那樣無暇的純白小花朵,靜靜的,像什麼也沒發生。162Please respect copyright.PENANATbXdnPnuJ4
啊,或許值得欣慰的是,他家中的妻子,不藥而癒。162Please respect copyright.PENANAj1HbgyjRob
162Please respect copyright.PENANAJXcuT9YDH8
要說一命換一命也不全然正確,他做出了選擇,花也是,如此而已。162Please respect copyright.PENANAgr4TDiddyx
162Please respect copyright.PENANAR3NjLoE3Rf
162Please respect copyright.PENANAPsdUZexIhR
人們提到的十年,說長不長、說短不短,那足以讓失去丈夫的妻子逐漸走出傷痛;也足以讓一個孩子長得能跑能跳。162Please respect copyright.PENANA450b4LUrjj
162Please respect copyright.PENANAcq06Xu288w
我打了個呵欠,也許睡睡醒醒間,我看見他的夢。162Please respect copyright.PENANAfWAsuQuBMY
162Please respect copyright.PENANAfHwN3wPvgH
空閒無聊的時候我偶爾會想,為什麼被叫做蝴蝶谷?不是白花谷?食人花谷?或其它聽來就危險的名字?而又是誰開始賦予這裡意義與傳說?162Please respect copyright.PENANACuYpEldi8C
162Please respect copyright.PENANACRZ0PFAaYa
雖然我對時間的流逝並無所感,卻得在算數上精確計較,畢竟十年不過是個概略的說法。162Please respect copyright.PENANAek8nDLfYdo
162Please respect copyright.PENANAYvwiRfkPop
那隻「初生」的迷途蝴蝶有別於他原先的來時路,失去方向,甚至沒有意識到自己成為這個樣子,在谷底四周打轉、亂飛一通。162Please respect copyright.PENANADC076opqpZ
162Please respect copyright.PENANAtAaxTZQ1A8
我不禁莞爾,花的選擇總是令人玩味地有趣。162Please respect copyright.PENANAtYC9Ugr9Ux
162Please respect copyright.PENANAGRG5313j5b
說到底,他們其實完全不清楚蝴蝶谷。162Please respect copyright.PENANAkF1oHkFw2b
162Please respect copyright.PENANAGzd6h1lWwl
162Please respect copyright.PENANAaxM29HGQB0
每當靈魂所成的蝴蝶數量達到一百隻,牠們就解放,然而飛出谷中的蝴蝶下落,就真的沒有人曉得了。162Please respect copyright.PENANAE5BpO7vNCi
162Please respect copyright.PENANAn2DlcRWW2j
或許牠們過完蝴蝶美麗而短暫的一生;又或許牠們會回到思念的地方。162Please respect copyright.PENANAs0ehnTxKjV
162Please respect copyright.PENANAVkJTSESckS
嘖嘖,可憐的人。162Please respect copyright.PENANArzPrB8o5TA
162Please respect copyright.PENANAfyCOhnEpD6
「那個誰,來這裡報到!你十三號!」我對那人招了招手。
