森林開始起霧了。91Please respect copyright.PENANAzMoVC6KEkl
視野逐漸變得狹隘,連路也變得越來越顛簸。91Please respect copyright.PENANA9FdE9OkupS
91Please respect copyright.PENANAQ022cbKY8N
但鼓聲卻從未消失過。91Please respect copyright.PENANAhX0WR9RAwf
91Please respect copyright.PENANADnSknYbd1Y
時間彷彿被停止了一般,後面的夕陽不論過了多久仍高高地掛著,夜晚永遠不會到來,一切都靜止在這一刻。91Please respect copyright.PENANAI8oVNb3IDj
周圍空氣變得沉重混濁,每踏出一步喘氣就重了一些,AKIRA感覺到自己就像在陸地上垂死掙扎的小魚,正在做些無謂的努力,91Please respect copyright.PENANAGxrDvPwlc5
91Please respect copyright.PENANAZUApvsFAim
「咚」91Please respect copyright.PENANAURkOFh4Hmw
「咚」91Please respect copyright.PENANAk9AdflmNd4
「咚」91Please respect copyright.PENANAGcHZHq5MHX
91Please respect copyright.PENANAbJgjiY9L7W
單調卻頻繁的鼓聲迴響著整座森林,甚至大到蓋過了下雨聲。91Please respect copyright.PENANAdNBjL8f9qy
AKIRA內心感到莫名的慌張感與不安,自己似乎已經進入聲音來源的周圍,但眼前卻因為霧霾的侵入而什麼也看不見。91Please respect copyright.PENANASnJe6ROPxk
91Please respect copyright.PENANAZVRaNwLJQ4
潮濕的水氣像是整座山的吐息,冷冷地吐在自己的背脊上,令人毛骨悚然,已經分不清是雨水還是冷汗,只知道自己正在被大自然所吞噬。91Please respect copyright.PENANAPFUEi7Q893
91Please respect copyright.PENANAPGigjUJy9h
仲夏的暑熱蕩然無存,徒留下凍及骨髓的寒冷氣溫。91Please respect copyright.PENANAvdDLmEcYaF
91Please respect copyright.PENANAjNFQC9XGXa
「我……我到底已經走了多久?」91Please respect copyright.PENANAoXOgK41iPf
91Please respect copyright.PENANAkwr3o2aSqg
AKIRA顫抖著唇齒自言自語著,只穿著短褲短袖的他不禁將身體縮成了一團,而拿出早已沒有訊號的手機,上方的螢幕卻顯示出17:50的字樣,代表自己不過才多走了三分鐘的路。91Please respect copyright.PENANAoxzOlwkjng
91Please respect copyright.PENANAH9CbsWyDxB
(不……不可能,這應該是壞掉了才對……。)91Please respect copyright.PENANAYpPwFAlWct
91Please respect copyright.PENANAzPdCGEjyJ8
他覺得自己早已經走超過了一小時,因為身體的疲累感就是無法欺瞞的證據,而如今種種異象讓他無法再做出更多的解釋。91Please respect copyright.PENANArCEmfVKd0f
91Please respect copyright.PENANAhJsIsYGZAP
明明在更久之前自己就應該要回去了。91Please respect copyright.PENANAi5sFH9qGse
然而回過神的時候,自己早已經不認得路了。91Please respect copyright.PENANAilEaNUk6ey
91Please respect copyright.PENANAvJ1xofN7A0
AKIRA習慣性地咬了咬乾裂的下嘴唇,輕微的疼痛讓自己的內心輕鬆了一些,但腦袋中的負面思考卻像漩渦般一發不可收拾。91Please respect copyright.PENANAGqUbasbWI5
91Please respect copyright.PENANAV32l54uHUu
要是真的走不回去了該怎麼辦?91Please respect copyright.PENANAjcB0EN9G2t
我會死在這裡嗎?91Please respect copyright.PENANAbFm2pDPcB2
YUKI……YUKI她,該不會也是和我一樣……。91Please respect copyright.PENANAWyuVEA2ltM
91Please respect copyright.PENANAr7WtzLaSBI
思緒變得混亂。91Please respect copyright.PENANA8QyNIMHutS
91Please respect copyright.PENANACUSG001ohx
然而,此時,在糢糊的眼前出現了一條在濃霧中異常清晰的道路。91Please respect copyright.PENANAgdNo9Pnsrq
道路上沒有任何植物、落葉或者樹枝,地面乾淨的像剛被清掃過,而這在長年荒廢的深山中是不可能發生的事情,至少自己剛剛走來的路上都是如此。91Please respect copyright.PENANAQwRGl2Sybb
91Please respect copyright.PENANArewEdbzKQp
「……。」91Please respect copyright.PENANACmLx5MlmeI
91Please respect copyright.PENANAnQG6B7WBwD
AKIRA沒有繼續前進,一個人停駐在濃霧和乾淨空間的界線之上,異樣感讓他不敢任意輕舉妄動,森林裏只聽的到自己粗重的喘息聲,而不知不覺中雨已經停了。91Please respect copyright.PENANA8mPK5nwp3s
收起了雨傘,男孩四處張望著,等待某些事物的出現或變化,但過了一會兒什麼也沒有發生,讓他覺得自己就像個傻子一樣。91Please respect copyright.PENANAyjmpfNhYcz
91Please respect copyright.PENANAveK3QFZOlk
(……我到底在幹嘛?)91Please respect copyright.PENANAtSD1MBwbNP
91Please respect copyright.PENANAU40fygmrLV
AKIRA歎了口氣,準備向前跨出一腳――
91Please respect copyright.PENANAL1snO54hbU
「鏘啷」91Please respect copyright.PENANAHNZ9qWppZj
91Please respect copyright.PENANA6fYZWoRGSe
清脆的鈴聲倏然在不到自己十步的距離響起。91Please respect copyright.PENANALUYNbq2vg1
91Please respect copyright.PENANATOtmuznNbT
91Please respect copyright.PENANAjIQFXJvqNh
全身的細胞在那一剎那聳立了起來。91Please respect copyright.PENANA3KFFSC9kdY
血液變的冰冷,凍結在皮膚的表裡。91Please respect copyright.PENANAd6c644Y3Bj
心跳聲震動著鼓膜。91Please respect copyright.PENANA2LRRb9VNzR
91Please respect copyright.PENANA86Cv1mOl83
AKIRA緩緩地往自己的右側轉頭望去。91Please respect copyright.PENANAY0qehQ8Ycl
91Please respect copyright.PENANAZEm71Duisw
在濃霧中,人影逐漸變得清晰。91Please respect copyright.PENANAlBcOTYs0QH
91Please respect copyright.PENANAvY62TSWyAE
「鏘啷」91Please respect copyright.PENANAok0NA7JKnv
91Please respect copyright.PENANAXWFN9qdFUD
伴隨著聲響,身長三尺的「人們」走入了視野之中。91Please respect copyright.PENANAtsrLP9TgPU
91Please respect copyright.PENANA2qTJUl8UCr
慘白臉龐死氣沉沉地直視著前方,從它們身上感受不到任何生命體徵,彷彿另一個世界過來的詭異生物在模仿著人類的活動,步伐呈現一致的規律性沒有任何誤差,也沒有產生腳步聲。91Please respect copyright.PENANAnq1G3NHy38
91Please respect copyright.PENANAmnaxzDmTev
它們似乎在做著某種儀式。91Please respect copyright.PENANACqgjJIGFtO
帶頭的人拿著類似錫杖的物品,每前進一步就會發出「鏘啷」的聲音。後頭跟隨的人帶著一個深褐色與紅色污漬的皮鼓,敲擊著自己剛才一直聽見的鼓聲。更後面的人拿著形形色色、陌生的器材,從濃霧中不斷向著某個方向前進。91Please respect copyright.PENANARmg0yFAbcj
91Please respect copyright.PENANAZCmImjEeQf
AKIRA腦袋中一片空白,身體不自覺地往後走了幾步,但卻因為平衡不穩而跌落在地板上。91Please respect copyright.PENANAi0v0yphuu7
樹枝劃破了小腿流出涔涔鮮血,但此時的他根本感覺不到任何疼痛,只是一味地被眼前的景象震撼住,連呼吸都忘記了。91Please respect copyright.PENANAvxelTLwIJ7
91Please respect copyright.PENANAtrxzOYB5Dd
――它們要去哪裡?91Please respect copyright.PENANAsEqeLZWrmM
91Please respect copyright.PENANA2pJpcQxXKG
高大的他們彷彿看不見跌坐在地上的AKIRA,木訥地以十分快速的速度朝著夕陽墜落的西方走去,像是要急著趕去某個集會一般。91Please respect copyright.PENANAF2fq8wJmim
黑色傳統的中國古裝、空氣中彌漫的檀香氣味以及環繞在森林裏低沉鼓聲,在AKIRA眼前所有的一切呈現一種難以理解的狀態,自己就是一位貿然闖入的第三者,破壞了他們所待的空間與時空。91Please respect copyright.PENANAASIJLJPgux
91Please respect copyright.PENANA5qztywFlOZ
必須離開。91Please respect copyright.PENANAUpFZWs5Shh
再待下去肯定會很不妙。91Please respect copyright.PENANAM0BNpGhT0p
91Please respect copyright.PENANAaV2qGmWfki
心中的警鈴大作,然而眼睛彷彿被定住離不開它們,就連身體也無法移動一毫米,就這樣什麼也做不了。91Please respect copyright.PENANAMn3prEjd4p
91Please respect copyright.PENANAPF9rsSIH5O
最後,映入眼簾的是從迷霧中緩緩出現的、如鮮血般艷紅的「大轎子」。91Please respect copyright.PENANATFiqH9ATHX
91Please respect copyright.PENANAqgiCHPJeNf
像是「神明」般被眾人被拱在隊伍的正中央。
