或許是忘記他,或者是不需要他了。惠施這一去,已好久好久,都未曾有過音信。577Please respect copyright.PENANARZvmiy47iT

第二年的冬天,起初只是鵝毛般的細雪,到後來,雪卻愈下愈大,宋國遍地飢寒交加,莊周也不例外。577Please respect copyright.PENANACL1b77DZtS

其實莊周沒有甚麼不開心,只是在把那艘扁舟賣掉時,他竟格外想念起惠施來。577Please respect copyright.PENANAYxsUudXy06

「要是他當時不說我可以去找他,我興許是不去的……」577Please respect copyright.PENANAWyzKNwhHiV

577Please respect copyright.PENANA4QU60kTwN4
躺在榻上的莊周,迷茫間睜開了雙眼,抓著惠施的手,緊緊地摁在自己的心口。左右都是僕從,這樣的動作,讓惠施顯得有些為難。577Please respect copyright.PENANAEc6cyMIE3a
577Please respect copyright.PENANAFMBVyXkgyG
惠施抽開了手,替莊周把被子闔上,「你又不是大王,我不是你的相國。」577Please respect copyright.PENANAZs2CJKRAz1
577Please respect copyright.PENANAjpERf1HmEa
「我怎麼了……?」莊周躺在榻子上,看著跪在身旁的惠施。577Please respect copyright.PENANAXCavdxBRuu
577Please respect copyright.PENANA9d9aonJX7O
「你還沒進城就餓昏了,但是你很有名氣,大家都喜歡你寫的書,也知道你是我的故人,我得了信,就把你接回來。」惠施道。577Please respect copyright.PENANAgBdtVYmtph
577Please respect copyright.PENANAdwCFIPxCy1
「嗯。」莊周伸出手來,摸了摸惠施的臉,「我的公子,你的表情好像有些奇怪,怎麼了嗎?」577Please respect copyright.PENANAube8uga7Is
577Please respect copyright.PENANAjWNy1Cmd2K
惠施猶豫了一會兒,纔說道:「我得回宮一趟,不能一直獃在這兒。你有些風寒,我已吩咐府裏的人調些肉羹給你喫了,你多喫點,病纔能養好,知道不?」577Please respect copyright.PENANA4NVu01v8dT
577Please respect copyright.PENANAoJ3DebovJ0
惠施的神色終究是有些複雜,然而他按著自己的手,以及他的神色又是如此溫柔。577Please respect copyright.PENANASzVNnri8qy
577Please respect copyright.PENANAqcyvRuuoJl
莊周在惠施府上調養身體的期間,不時聽到下人們偷偷地在他背後議論道:「這位就是來搶老爺相位的人嗎」、「瞧他衣衫襤褸,大王不會採用他吧」、「老爺不是要把他殺掉嗎?為什麼還接待他?」577Please respect copyright.PENANA5Yg5VY4Wvg
577Please respect copyright.PENANAfROk8z3pgU
莊周明白了。577Please respect copyright.PENANAnK1Um8IErb
577Please respect copyright.PENANA0Jd44ZG8Nq
『雖見著了,卻比見不著難受。我這趟來反而給惠施惹了麻煩……原是我知牽腸掛肚不好,可依然牽掛才如此。』

下朝後,惠施擔任大王的顧問,接待六國使者,與他們商量對策,一直忙碌到很晚纔回了家。纔到家,見到莊周昏睡在外堂,他被諕了一下,向家奴問道:「你們是不是虧待了莊先生?」577Please respect copyright.PENANAdAOt0ZPoU4
577Please respect copyright.PENANAaE1yt3uH2A
「奴才不敢,是莊先生非要在此等候老爺,老爺太晚沒回來,莊先生累倒了。」577Please respect copyright.PENANA0NDTXd7TEx
577Please respect copyright.PENANAte7azULL7l
惠施看著莊周的模樣,想:『莊周不知禮節,在外堂昏睡,這樣的人,興許大王是不會採用的;若只是來投靠我的話也無妨。』577Please respect copyright.PENANAByIaCym8o9
577Please respect copyright.PENANABwouUCAVpK
便吩咐道:「往我房裏加一套被子。」577Please respect copyright.PENANA9PqDjbJOug

家奴不解。惠施道:「莊先生與我同房。」得令,這才退下。577Please respect copyright.PENANAwRVY59bJcM

577Please respect copyright.PENANAfT7ES8vhT3
這回,他飛過濠梁,鑽過濠梁下的湖心,遠遠飛過魏國的都城,翩飄進相國府的窗櫺裏,裏頭香霧瀰漫,溫暖無比,與外頭的飢寒大相逕庭。577Please respect copyright.PENANAiLWKaO8se9

他本想回頭,惠施卻說道:「別回頭,我幫你擦背。」577Please respect copyright.PENANAARKpp8FkcU

洗浴間,莊周昏昏沉沉的,連一頭長髮,都是惠施幫他梳洗。只記得惠施撫觸他的感覺極細,他的手觸碰過自己的後頸,背胛,其餘的,病中便再難記。577Please respect copyright.PENANAk586ThxguF
577Please respect copyright.PENANAoUtI0jFDEK
一整晚都沒有下人來打擾。就寢時分,惠施幫莊周穿好睡衣後,兩人同榻,相對而寢。577Please respect copyright.PENANAshYx1C4U3t

夜半時分,莊周竟感覺惠施的身子貼服在他的背後,雙手摟著他的腰。577Please respect copyright.PENANAuUxFeJvORW

莊周說道:「惠子,等病養好,我就離開大梁。」577Please respect copyright.PENANA9Po0xXZDhv

惠施沒答話,只無聲地淌淚,有幾滴淚直接淌在莊周的身上,莊周伸手替他揩面。577Please respect copyright.PENANABSGHrok1fs
577Please respect copyright.PENANA1prtw3k98r
只聞幽幽地一句「對不住」。莊周說道:「對不住的人是我,人各有志,我又何必強求呢?」577Please respect copyright.PENANArMLnR54jIf
577Please respect copyright.PENANA2fpJKaqqF7
「你以前曾問過我,你若離開,會不會想你,會不會留戀?其實我想得很……我來大梁,只是想給你這個答案。魏王的相國,你一人就足夠了,我若繼續留在這兒,你大概也過得不安穩。」577Please respect copyright.PENANApXhD2i2Yvf
577Please respect copyright.PENANAR8rvB40C90
「若我不在乎呢?」惠施看著莊周的臉,「你千里迢迢來看我,還猜忌你是我的錯……可如果我說,就算大王真的叫你去作他的相國,我也不在乎呢?」577Please respect copyright.PENANA8od8oYvnc8
577Please respect copyright.PENANAOn1waa6G8H
「我在乎啊,我又不想和別人作禮行揖,可你還對這地方有所依戀,不是嗎?你想當官,我不想當官,我留在大梁,對我們倆人都很麻煩。」莊周道:「這一回,你若想我的話,就回宋國好嗎?……等你不想做官了再回來,我等你。」577Please respect copyright.PENANAosFDLZC1VN
577Please respect copyright.PENANAbfzUV8RXvj
惠施只輕輕地說了句「好」,便把莊周緊緊地攢進懷裏,而後,一夜無話。577Please respect copyright.PENANAnWImME6XhZ

莊周淡淡地說道:「在楚國有位郢人,他有很會使大斧頭的匠人朋友,他們兩個會一種表演,郢人先在鼻頭上,抹上一層薄如蠅翼的石灰,再讓他的朋友削去。」577Please respect copyright.PENANAEN67djb5I3
577Please respect copyright.PENANAsbB85Kk5yk
「旁人雖看得心驚膽跳,郢人卻面不改色,對匠人十分放心。匠人使斧頭時,不但沒削掉郢人的鼻子,還把石灰完全砍去。宋元君聽說這椿奇事,想請郢人再表演一次,郢人卻回答:『我的匠人朋友已經仙逝,只留下我一人獨活,所以我無法再表演了。』」
