不周山的冬季來得極快,本就環境惡劣,此時更加苛刻,百獸蟄伏,山林蕭瑟,只聞落雪⋯⋯也就這個時節的不周山,寧靜如畫。

水晶宮殿的邊陲地帶,開闢了一處半露天溫泉,熱源引自不遠處的火山,而一旁的水道送來乾淨的泉水,挹注這個由紫色水晶打造的池子,整座溫泉範圍不小,向外甚至可俯瞰整座不周山,據說初始的不周山可沒有這些,還是現任的典獄長另行開闢而成——因為他怕冷。

自從進入了冬季,太史殷就有點難熬。

一是這寒冷季節,體質之故,總覺得冷;二是那人三天兩頭往礦山腳下的村落跑,一天到晚不見人影,心中莫名煩躁。

「雷音。」喊了一聲也沒看見個蛇影,方才想起⋯⋯雷音應是隨著她去了山下村莊。
303Please respect copyright.PENANA3CjjrIKAwo
303Please respect copyright.PENANAsWfDIDy1K0
不周山關押了罪大惡極的凶獸,即便是「牢獄」外,也盡是猛獸之流,為顧及她的安全,交代了雷音,倘若他不在,切不可離開她身邊⋯⋯如此想來,倒也可笑。

一人一虺,相約出遊,自從動亂平息後,罪民們對神子一說深信不疑,每每造訪便引得眾人圍觀、相繼邀約,眾曰:神子踏過的地都是香的,不僅帶來朝氣、笑聲,讓死氣沈沈的村落重現生機⋯⋯放眼整個村,莫約剩豬圈沒走過。

303Please respect copyright.PENANAESV1Q5R85A
按照村民對神子的態度,只差沒照三餐供養起來,連雷音都吃胖了不少⋯⋯想到此處,他只覺得無語,那麼多雙眼,沒看見平亂的是誰?

太史殷坐在池子裡,仰頭不語。

倒不是在意罪民的態度,於他而言,災禍、暴亂,平息即可,左右這操控猛獸及馭雷的能力,放眼整個九界鮮有對手,他自然是沒把那些小打小亂放在眼裡,唯一介意的便是,偶爾靠近她時,身上總沾染了他人的氣味,那味道簡直難以忍受。

今早,嗅到她身上一股稀薄的狼騷味,不用想便知是那狼崽子,雖沐浴過,氣息極淡,仍是躲不過他敏銳的嗅覺,卻見趴在床頭的雷音絲毫不覺有異,他只嘆息,一手拉拔長大的紫鱗大虺居然也懂得胳膊向外彎了。

心中無名火起,便冷嘲了幾句,哪知那人又頂了回來,無處發作,只好委屈了雷音⋯⋯反正那孩子皮糙肉硬,就當作是鍛鍊吧,男人無聲一笑。

裸著身子泡在氤氳繚繞的溫泉裡,周身暢汗淋漓,總算將這幾日的疲憊一掃而散,然而,心上在意的事卻無法抒發。前日忙於應付九重天,他利用自個兒身份與此地的優勢,替她周旋、為她掩護,他一介不周山之主,難道還保不住一個人?
303Please respect copyright.PENANADt5Amtbsvj
303Please respect copyright.PENANAYQceqxvu1L
⋯⋯只不過,對方並未領情。

『⋯⋯。』禁止她離開不周山,護衛她的安危,卻只得一句控訴。
303Please respect copyright.PENANAtNrmvi7zwy
303Please respect copyright.PENANAr3qCJxay6Z
的確,他是沒有家人,自化靈來,唯一常伴在側的便是雷音,不如她所言,空桑即食魂之鄉,是眾百食魂的居所、歸宿,彼此以家人相稱,而非主僕。
303Please respect copyright.PENANAn3Vzr3yXXK

悠悠一嘆,男人展臂靠在池緣,思索著這耐人尋味的關係——他漫長的生命中,還未曾想過何謂家人,這樣的關係是累贅,卻藏著些許難以意會的情緒⋯⋯思量間,卻聽遠處傳來動靜。

鱗片刮著地板的聲響,一聽便知,不過須臾,水晶門被頂了開來,一條佈滿紫色鱗片的大尾巴卡住了門縫。
303Please respect copyright.PENANAGFj8WEyJAy
303Please respect copyright.PENANALXIOvsBc46
雷音這孩子真是越發皮了,犯錯還敢不認,用尾巴面對他還是頭一遭,他冷道:「出去玩還懂回來⋯⋯。」
303Please respect copyright.PENANASn6Fx9kdAB
303Please respect copyright.PENANAT0Lv4FJJER
話未說完,只見門後甩出一物,伴隨著一聲石破天驚的喊叫,緊接著眼前濺起水花⋯⋯
303Please respect copyright.PENANA4Cxr0ybD2v
303Please respect copyright.PENANASVM8QG0d6f
他急忙上前,那處是整個溫泉最深的地方,當初為了讓雷音也能泡泡澡,刻意將池底鑿得深些,此刻憑她那小身板是踩不到地的⋯⋯幸好,一撈就到手。

這電光石火間,水晶門被重重關上,肇事者已然溜遠,只剩懷裡人一身狼狽,顯然是沒料到,平日疼愛的萌寵居然這樣對她。

「雷音——!!」女子的喊叫響遍整座水晶宮殿,遠處那條紫鱗大虺聽見後,更是加快速度逃離災難現場,牠可是全世界最聰明的一條蛇,主上的警告猶言在耳,牠才不要繼續待著,免得又被刷鱗片!
303Please respect copyright.PENANA5Cnbshlqv5
303Please respect copyright.PENANAqHdH7VMwsD
牠也不擔心香香的空桑少主會有什麼危險,因為主上一定會保護她的!方才丟人進池子,準頭分毫不差,就是看準了那處深度,況且主上絕不會見死不救,瞧,人才剛入水,主上就動身了!
303Please respect copyright.PENANADwe9E9w0vs

「咳咳。」剛從驚魂中緩口氣,一身濕衣不說,眼前畫面讓她腦袋卡殼。

從村莊回來,雷音馱著她直奔此處,她也不以為意,還道是雷音要帶她四處幽轉,哪知來到一扇紫色水晶門前,還沒搞清楚狀況就被丟了進來⋯⋯短暫飛在空中,接著沒入水裡,只覺得「我命休矣」,所幸甫入水中不過一瞬就被「打撈」上來,只不過眼前的畫面⋯⋯太衝擊了!

想都沒想過,像砲彈似的丟入水中,又被一臉冷漠的裸身男人救起、抱在懷裡,這謝謝兩字都說不出口。

303Please respect copyright.PENANAG5fif9uMRp
前陣子吵架、冷戰,她避不見面,假使碰面,也不過兩三句話。她承認,她是沒給他好臉色,家人被俘,她卻形同廢柴一般,什麼事也做不到,好不容易某人開口允她下山走走,與村民們聊天、與孩子們玩耍,回去還被嫌臭!

幾日下來,兩人關係冷淡,九重天的事她也插不上手,索性夥同雷音,在村莊玩到夜幕低垂才肯回,哪知道今日夜歸,居然是這場面。
303Please respect copyright.PENANAEJGCIONxV4
303Please respect copyright.PENANAw2vNQcAy6J
「誰沐浴會穿衣服?」嗓音低沈,冷笑一聲,彷彿嘲笑她,問這什麼蠢問題。

「⋯⋯。」啊,原來是,大型沐浴現場。

男人雙手一鬆,將人放好,此處地勢平坦,水不過到胸口,安全無虞,而他則往後靠去,好整以暇地瞧著狼狽至極的她。
303Please respect copyright.PENANASgTCgoQph7
303Please respect copyright.PENANAImKYmAQ5cu
最怕空氣突然安靜,且一時間有點不知該把視線移向何處⋯⋯與身材高大、渾身赤裸的男人一同在池裡,彷彿整個溫泉都沸騰起來,她都能感覺到耳根有多紅。
303Please respect copyright.PENANAXJUVPjRXmY
303Please respect copyright.PENANAigTFCiolCq
琢磨了與岸邊的距離,她還是遲疑,這身濕衣貼在身上,曲線畢露,白色上衣更是隱約瞧見膚色⋯⋯還是、還是打暈他?或是戳瞎他?這樣他就看不見了,但是可能在撲上去時就被制住了?腦中百轉千迴,仍是拿不定主意。
303Please respect copyright.PENANAkBPzY3LUrb
303Please respect copyright.PENANA5lm0Mw4tiA
水聲潺潺,打斷了思緒,眼前男人抬腳往一旁走去,帶起了薄弱的水花,背對她,接著道:「天冷,記得吹乾濕髮再歇息。」
303Please respect copyright.PENANAVzD0sesHXO
303Please respect copyright.PENANAFM9exdeKax
或許是知曉她的顧忌,沒讓她難堪太久,甚至順勢給了台階,還不忘提點,然而⋯⋯
303Please respect copyright.PENANAJztrlLxx98
303Please respect copyright.PENANA7HncBBkpew
「等等,你、你背後那是什麼?」走之前往他那兒瞄了一眼,卻被眼前的畫面嚇得震驚不已,他的背上⋯⋯!
303Please respect copyright.PENANAmF4jKaDddX
303Please respect copyright.PENANAjjXBQVmXP6
「⋯⋯。」疏忽大意,竟忘了這事,語氣更顯冷漠疏遠,低聲道:「快走。」
