我是徐福,齊國人。自幼清貧,家中以務農為生。八歲那年,家鎮犯上洪災,父母皆死於災難當中,我自此變成孤兒,四海為家。 103Please respect copyright.PENANA4wiZGR5HwZ
103Please respect copyright.PENANAvKW2xOhOeG
不久,我被一戶船家收留,在他們家當起了小船夫。一當,便當了三年。在這三年間,每天都是看著同一片天空。不知是否因為以前務農的經歷,讓我對氣象產生一定的認識。每天都待在湖邊的我,觀察著氣候、天色的變化,成為我最大的樂趣。在日復日的觀察下,漸漸也能預測,何時會是天晴,何時會是下雨。 103Please respect copyright.PENANAyGESXyvHJ2

「小兄弟,有小艇租借嗎?」 有一天,一個白髮垂暮的老人,撐著兩枝漁竿,走到碼頭借小艇。 103Please respect copyright.PENANAPHLwghqBZM
103Please respect copyright.PENANAxwvlmRdfcc
「關檔了,天色不好。」我一邊收拾著攤檔,一邊說。 103Please respect copyright.PENANA8lwdHbNB90
103Please respect copyright.PENANAovT9jPbwl6
「怎麼不好了呢?不是天朗氣清嗎?陽光還很猛烈。」老人問。 103Please respect copyright.PENANACzq9nskf0S
103Please respect copyright.PENANAUZmkYNC4kS
「就是太過悶熱了,濕氣亦重,而且你看,燕子們都感受到濕潤,紛紛低飛了,我看,暴雨將至啊。」 103Please respect copyright.PENANAPOzZx9NsCF
103Please respect copyright.PENANAXr3eBeO6bD
「但我看,這場雨,不會下得太久。」老人卻說。 103Please respect copyright.PENANAhPdcTMJkss
103Please respect copyright.PENANAO9hilm52Xy
「周遭都是鉤卷形狀的雲,所謂『天有鉤卷雲,快將被雨淋。』,快下暴風雨了。」我反駁著。 103Please respect copyright.PENANAwTbVowTp2l
103Please respect copyright.PENANA6tCLJUzoWs
「呵呵,雨下得有多大,與下多久沒有關係啊。」想不到,老人仍然一派泰然自若 。
「那你喜歡吧,要借艇,三枚賹化,若艇有破損,要再賠償三枚,若你有命回來的話。」 對著頑固的他,我也不多阻撓,反正淋雨的是他。但憑我的經驗,這場雨不下個兩三天,也不會停的。 103Please respect copyright.PENANAdF5g2AwqvT
103Please respect copyright.PENANAKBkkkJmhXW
果然,在老人出發沒多久,天色驟變灰暗,烏雲如像寶塔般堆積起來,再過沒多久,便逐漸下起毛毛雨。 103Please respect copyright.PENANAJSH0AGzdmn
103Please respect copyright.PENANAzpXk7utJig
「福兒,下雨了,怎麼還不回家?」收養我的義父,看我還留在簷下便問。 103Please respect copyright.PENANApXpmlbsn0E
103Please respect copyright.PENANAJtNuZuMaXp
「有個老人租了艇,我在等他回來。」 103Please respect copyright.PENANACOID5L7Hii
103Please respect copyright.PENANAKQFv3dlpnD
「你應該也知道快下雨了,怎麼還把艇租給他啊?」 103Please respect copyright.PENANAZn0cz76dvU
103Please respect copyright.PENANAc3cO9qCYnO
「他說這場雨很快便會停,硬是租艇到外面釣魚。」我回答說。 103Please respect copyright.PENANAIC0iM3AAKK
103Please respect copyright.PENANACtPG2kRs7G
「怎麼會啊?天空烏雲蓋頂,我這個門外漢也知道,暴雨將至啊。」義父擔憂地說。 103Please respect copyright.PENANAsPOR32L7bb
103Please respect copyright.PENANA8AC5tEjUc4
「你先回去吧,我在這裡等他好了。」我對著義父說。 103Please respect copyright.PENANADF8ji5scHl
103Please respect copyright.PENANAZZdTe050pn
「那好吧,我先回去預備飯菜,你自己小心點兒啊。」103Please respect copyright.PENANAU6ylPSZiKt
義父是個忠厚老實的好人,他和義母經營了這門生意十餘年,很多達客貴人也曾租借過他們的艇子出遊,是鎮內信譽良好的船家。103Please respect copyright.PENANAGFMtJAAG0y
103Please respect copyright.PENANAK8dn1FDkwD
「行了,有什麼問題,還有大哥在。」我回應道。103Please respect copyright.PENANAqcUwwcMx2H
103Please respect copyright.PENANAcZKL0NZ2DU
他們擁有一個兒子,我們自然也以兄弟相稱。103Please respect copyright.PENANA4zSggOVyG2
103Please respect copyright.PENANALSUvZDRG0e
「你啊,看著弟弟啊。」義父叮囑義兄道。103Please respect copyright.PENANAC8bePsvjaI
103Please respect copyright.PENANAdWtGWCSQ2X
義兄年紀比我大上兩載,熱愛強身健體的他,年紀輕輕已鍛鍊得滿身肌肉,並擁有極敏捷的反應神經,加上為人與義父一樣正直不阿,看到不平之事總會挺身而出,是個可靠的大哥哥。103Please respect copyright.PENANA998pXonVJm
103Please respect copyright.PENANAprqmmr3xfW
「君房啊,你看這場雨會下多久呢?」義兄坐到我身邊問。103Please respect copyright.PENANA2k0sc9jhjG
103Please respect copyright.PENANAjp4hXhdrlT
「我看很久。」103Please respect copyright.PENANAYq6YgaORnX
103Please respect copyright.PENANARoInkB7jAO
「那...那老人會否出意外啊?」103Please respect copyright.PENANAEZfHSrqhhX
103Please respect copyright.PENANAxYcKpS8Yy0
「生死有命,若真的出了意外也沒辦法。」我說。103Please respect copyright.PENANAPBj5XPjKv4
103Please respect copyright.PENANAYMwX2u2mwQ
「我們要不要出去找他啊?」他問。103Please respect copyright.PENANABShNSsUOS7
看著越下越大的雨,間中更伴隨著幾下打雷聲,加上水流因下雨關係而變得湍急,現在出艇可是十分危險。103Please respect copyright.PENANArCPg5tqu1X
103Please respect copyright.PENANApwOh5gilmK
「我看還是算了吧,萬一你也發生了什麼意外,那可是不堪設想。」103Please respect copyright.PENANA6sz69FHwJT
103Please respect copyright.PENANA5uaCDVxH8o
我們二人,便一直躲在簷蓬,看著雨嘩啦嘩啦地下。正當以為大雨會再維持一段時間,想不到此時雨勢卻逐漸減弱。103Please respect copyright.PENANAanXB65sCM5
103Please respect copyright.PENANA8u1bhy9hCq
「雲散了。」義兄說,我舉頭看著天空,堆積的烏雲竟然徐徐散去,躲在它們身後的陽光緩慢地探出了頭。103Please respect copyright.PENANA8Zry3llmnS
103Please respect copyright.PENANAeupdepupC0
「怎麼會?」我暗自說道,我不能相信,自己竟然猜錯了。103Please respect copyright.PENANArtfrgEFHfc
103Please respect copyright.PENANAeMLVgmWD5u
隨後,湖上出現了一個身影,老人竟安然無恙地,撐著艇子回到湖邊,更捕獲了很多大魚。103Please respect copyright.PENANAtvLfXY5aXJ
103Please respect copyright.PENANAn9dL142hby
「他回來了!」看到老人順利地划到岸邊,義兄也鬆了一口氣。103Please respect copyright.PENANA8naDFXAcbR
103Please respect copyright.PENANAs5wwDAUEdV
我走到岸邊,接回我們的艇子。103Please respect copyright.PENANArDbUWPAIyG
103Please respect copyright.PENANAMHkauNGcTD
「看吧,停雨了,魚兒更順應河流全游了過來呢。」站在艇上的老人滿足地說。103Please respect copyright.PENANA2nPlj3p1rf
103Please respect copyright.PENANAFQMdkwu633
「你下船時小心點。」我對著老人說,卻不幸被我言中,老人不小心從艇上滑倒,整個人向後仰,往湖水的方向跌落。103Please respect copyright.PENANAbg5OcV9Bpb
在千鈞一髮之際,身邊刮起了一陣微風,原來是義兄看到老人的失足,便馬上奔跑到岸邊,及時地拉著老人,令老人能倖免於難。103Please respect copyright.PENANA32AOE48dVJ
103Please respect copyright.PENANAeaJaGNh0HJ
「小兄弟,你的身手真好啊。」老人對著義兄說。103Please respect copyright.PENANAUJDbK7KrVW
103Please respect copyright.PENANAJWdoWtlVcN
「老伯啊,下次不要逞強了,我義弟說過會下雨便會下雨,下雨出遊太危險了。」義兄苦口婆心地說,反而老人還是一臉毫不在乎地哈哈大笑著。103Please respect copyright.PENANAc3njI8Een3
103Please respect copyright.PENANAipttXkjqpy
「你們叫甚麼名字啊?」103Please respect copyright.PENANA3Hg5S7LZxR
103Please respect copyright.PENANAnrkMCh3v4P
「我是王翦,這是我義弟徐福!」義兄向老人介紹著我們的名字。103Please respect copyright.PENANAvUVnyhBZ76
103Please respect copyright.PENANAbxuH9bnJKR
「徐福...你說得沒錯,這場雨確實會下很久,只是,這是一場歇陣雨,雨不會一直下,而是會斷斷續續地下,只要捕捉到晴雨交替的時間,便能安然渡過。103Please respect copyright.PENANANC3y8weC9C
103Please respect copyright.PENANApRBzg5h70f
老人看到我失落的神情,便加以安慰:「但你小小年紀,已經能預測風雨將至,已十分了不起。」他雖對著我讚賞,但經他一說我才知道,自己剛才只是在班門弄斧。103Please respect copyright.PENANAXNxbujlPvL
103Please respect copyright.PENANAA8G1byVB7A
「你們兄弟倆,一個聰穎,一個身手敏捷,若能好好配合,將來必有所成啊。」老人攜著收成,離開了岸邊,剩下茫然的我們。103Please respect copyright.PENANAzIry3RlJZQ
103Please respect copyright.PENANARcVaSUyHSZ
「又下雨了,快點回家了啊!」義兄說。在老人走後,立刻又再次下起大雨,仿佛剛才戛然而止的雨勢,是為了能讓老人安然回到岸邊才暫時停止。103Please respect copyright.PENANAOqTZygh1aK
