「你發夢麼?」262Please respect copyright.PENANAiMy0AVsWty
262Please respect copyright.PENANA8IeHJn98Qs
一個女子聲音問道。秦逍坐起身來,見昨夜那名黑衣女子正環胸盤坐地上。262Please respect copyright.PENANAZZkMyHzECn
262Please respect copyright.PENANAHfP5dNykNQ
「在下記得,昨夜確實將姑娘請上了客房榻。」他一面問一面按著額頭醒神。262Please respect copyright.PENANAsyoshdtsP0
262Please respect copyright.PENANAb9inozzBJL
「我也記得,我說過不睡賊人的榻。」儘管天生語聲嬌柔輕細,女子語調仍是冷冷淡淡的。262Please respect copyright.PENANAiK52rL9cSB
262Please respect copyright.PENANAYItce9qXvA
秦逍笑道:「在下還記得,在下並非姑娘口中賊人。」他素來溫文,和這女子雖曾為敵,卻仍不改客氣和善的毛病。262Please respect copyright.PENANA42HyE59M3s
262Please respect copyright.PENANATiDy6iLiJS
「我更記得,你和霍顛狗賊彼此相交,既是他朋友,必然一丘之貉。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAxAzdKLEzf7
262Please respect copyright.PENANArLKfBq4uMp
秦逍見她神色失落間帶點疲憊,便知她想必一夜不曾入睡,當下翻身下榻,見著日頭都快上了三竿,想是昨一場夜鬥,早晨又在夢裡見了多年不見的紅樓,竟一睡到了這個時候。262Please respect copyright.PENANAPXSKnSCUpK
262Please respect copyright.PENANAyBMmWcguoi
「子迢。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAF75ehQw8pq
262Please respect copyright.PENANAKLYoCJHnxw
一名俊秀少年無聲無息步入室內,少年一身勁裝,衣袂風塵僕僕,背後兩柄短刀插著,當下作揖道:「多年不見爺的面,子迢願爺一切都好。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAxP9aBKvsS1
262Please respect copyright.PENANAZO5OcUnoRx
秦逍微笑,「把你從那麼遠的地方找回來,是有要事託你去辦。不過這事待會再談,先請常叔把這位姑娘的早膳送到我書房去,你就領她先過去罷。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAaceUGTKPYg
262Please respect copyright.PENANAGllFeyPFsS
子迢應聲是,眼光卻注視著那名女子,秦逍知他戒備,又道:「她服下了軟筋散,十二個時辰內,不礙事。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAFcLAPDIPQ8
262Please respect copyright.PENANAS2plcqiXEF
用過膳後,秦逍才到書房和那名黑衣女子相見。女子仍是穿著深夜暗殺霍顛的那套夜行裝,面上蒙的黑布也不曾取下,只是被俘當夜被迫服下了軟筋散,十二個時辰內都休想運用內力。她隨子迢前去用膳、去書房的路上,一面觀看秦逍的私人莊園,一面暗暗憤恨昨夜入莊時簡直連莊內布局都無法瞧清,否則她手腳不曾縛住,即便爬也要爬出莊子去。再想起昨夜戰敗,竟讓仇人饒了性命,當真屈辱已極。262Please respect copyright.PENANAg7SaoZD8l1
262Please respect copyright.PENANAh3gcIObwui
當時已過丑時,在蓬萊客棧中秦逍道:「姑娘是蒼霞山曉雅莊的弟子。」262Please respect copyright.PENANADjhIKeFlcq
262Please respect copyright.PENANAdCysGGKCCe
「不是!」黑衣女子倏地回答。262Please respect copyright.PENANAIaxWxdgnc2
262Please respect copyright.PENANAlxUO6K6PIb
秦逍挑眉,眼中全是不信,還未說話,背後忽然一道房門緩緩推開,霍顛自裡頭走出,臉上、襟上滿是鮮血,手裡的長劍更像是插上了條血管子,血一路啪搭啪搭地滴。262Please respect copyright.PENANAZX8IXil5T9
262Please respect copyright.PENANAvvtJbMVX9I
秦逍略有遲疑:「將軍將他們都殺了麼?」262Please respect copyright.PENANAbTol8wMgJy
262Please respect copyright.PENANA0mlP379Lvo
霍顛抹去臉上血痕,「不殺,難道放他們回去傳信麼?」262Please respect copyright.PENANArjrx59b97E
262Please respect copyright.PENANAB0MiaNcW5S
他這話原非真的在問秦逍,誰知秦逍卻答道:「如擔心他們洩密,割了他們舌頭就好。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAjQsjfSflsq
262Please respect copyright.PENANAUQhDOyRZ7K
霍顛側目瞧他,愣了半晌才察覺秦逍是說真的,卻仍不可置信。262Please respect copyright.PENANA1NUHDtmH6g
262Please respect copyright.PENANAVp5Ew4Slfa
「如若他識字呢?」262Please respect copyright.PENANAbM5sAMk0bM
262Please respect copyright.PENANAV3yVlagf5d
秦逍緩緩道:「那就將手掌砍下來。」262Please respect copyright.PENANA56ISMhsj6X
262Please respect copyright.PENANADcnQAVElXm
霍顛忍不住冷哼:「可笑。」一旁偷看的客棧當家以及小二、店伴,若還有沒嚇暈的,此時都不禁瞠目結舌,誰能想到這個看來溫文爾雅的翩翩公子,竟面不改色地說出這番話來。262Please respect copyright.PENANADSNSbvyGev
262Please respect copyright.PENANASZNSdGelnn
霍顛走向秦逍,那名黑衣女子眼見霍顛走出房門時,早已滿腔憤怒,直來到跟前,女子忍不住嘶聲道:「狗賊,拿命來!拿命來!」262Please respect copyright.PENANAYcz8VShC9f
262Please respect copyright.PENANA535Cwe8m63
霍顛居高臨下直視那黑衣女子,「世上要霍某性命之人,多如牛毛,只不知你又與霍某有何冤仇?」262Please respect copyright.PENANAr0ojUhDY15
262Please respect copyright.PENANA35FcSj2N6z
「你殺我父兄,令我家破人亡,」黑衣女子含淚嘶聲道:「我早已發誓要取你的人頭祭我先父,豈知今日不僅戰敗,還賠上三位前輩性命。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAqzRly2ued1
262Please respect copyright.PENANABPrZ38I9bX
霍顛垂目看著她,她又道:「我技不如人,就悉聽尊便,只是我要你知道,只要我還活著一天,天涯海角,我都會來取你的命!」262Please respect copyright.PENANAiJQ9AjIZH0
262Please respect copyright.PENANA3gcSff6Wvq
說完頭一撇,竟閉目待死。秦逍心中暗讚這女子有膽量,他手裡仍握著女子那把漆黑短刀,心中卻另有主意。262Please respect copyright.PENANAKxJUYizbbY
262Please respect copyright.PENANAAVDLF1wPXE
「霍某一輩子殺過不少人,從未有哪一條命讓霍某感到後悔。」深夜裡霍顛語聲冷得像是能逼出人的魂來:「素來向霍某挑戰之人,霍某不曾留情,只是今日你即便想死,恐怕也不能輕易如願。」262Please respect copyright.PENANARFN7vcREeF
262Please respect copyright.PENANAo4RXKIWDJ4
黑衣女子陡然睜眼,還未反應過來,一旁的白衣男子已微笑接著道:「將軍竟能猜透在下心意,看樣子在下竟是今夜最技不如人的一個了,得回家練練。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAwBU1e6XsPc
262Please respect copyright.PENANAfdPa8edQhW
「在哪裡練都一樣,」霍顛已轉過身去,冷冷一笑:「只是以姑娘的性格,現在要她活著,恐怕比死還難受。至於舌頭割掉或手掌砍掉,你預備留給她哪一種活法,霍某不想管,我只管──」262Please respect copyright.PENANApFoT29YCfc
262Please respect copyright.PENANAsteDwuV7QG
「將軍放心,」秦逍再度張開摺扇,「在下會安排好一切。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7NqNmywEx
262Please respect copyright.PENANAXSkQRdjDQs
霍顛冷哼,將劍細細擦拭了收入鞘裡,一轉身躍出窗去不見蹤影。262Please respect copyright.PENANAzLEVQHHefb
262Please respect copyright.PENANAblZgm8lbk1
秦逍目送他離去,在此星此夜,此情此景,竟仍能悠然玉立窗畔以目送人,有時秦逍自己也幾乎認同,或許自己根本沒有心。黑衣女子這時仍跌坐在窗下,兀自怒泣抽咽,他扶起她來,拂開了她下半身穴道,緩緩道:「在下冒昧,今夜要請姑娘到在下的宅邸住上一宿了。店家,」他回頭呼喚,叫了好半晌那當家的才知秦逍在叫他,心中是萬萬不願應,卻更萬萬不敢不應。忍不住顫抖著應了,卻連個頭都不敢探出來。262Please respect copyright.PENANAkuOZLTB0SG
262Please respect copyright.PENANASGm3geUebb
「有…有何吩咐?公子饒命…饒命……」262Please respect copyright.PENANA31WaS5Xvjl
262Please respect copyright.PENANAGYKNMB2Iub
當家說的話,簡直抖到不成樣子,如非秦逍耳力好,恐怕沒人能聽明白到底他在說些什麼。262Please respect copyright.PENANAErz8HjN0NW
262Please respect copyright.PENANABqSA25NDMs
「這些銀子,權當在下替那位爺給各位陪禮,」他隨手一拋,幾個錠子躍過店內桌椅,不偏不倚落入櫃內,嚇得當家的全家人都縮在一起,瞪目一看,竟有好幾十兩銀,和幾個金葉子。「店家拿去清理了房間,如有餘下的,就請各位拿去吃杯茶罷。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAWBjrRYbU3A
262Please respect copyright.PENANAVvf31s8bnL
這時店家也不知今夜到底自己是迎來了瘟神還是送走財神,顫巍巍湊出頭來,只見白衣的公子道:「姑娘請吧。」那黑衣人心不甘情不願,好半晌才勉力站起身來,也聽不清他們又說了些什麼。黑衣人拿了一包粉末吞下,當下那公子偕了黑衣人手臂,竄出窗去,連皎白的月光都留不住他倆一點殘影。262Please respect copyright.PENANAhmJ4hJ6ouX
262Please respect copyright.PENANAITS1AW1sHK
誰知夜深露重,即便有秦逍攜著她手前行,她服下的軟筋散卻一點一滴正在發作,只弄得她渾身虛軟、昏昏欲睡,連途中景色如何,莊子在甚麼方位,進莊之後又走了什麼路線,她竟絲毫不能記得。現在回想起來,她不禁覺得,秦逍根本是知道這藥力的作用的。過去十數年間,玉面俠盜的落腳之處,或有耳聞,卻鮮少人能精確地指出路來。262Please respect copyright.PENANAYew6ZioLVk
262Please respect copyright.PENANA3rHgYHc2tu
她只隱約記得自己伏在秦逍背上,看見莊門上頭的匾大大的「紅樓莊」三個字,時陽光初露,一旁青山一道綠水傾瀉,鳥語花香,儼然一座世外桃源。262Please respect copyright.PENANAGGV8lU8kyJ
262Please respect copyright.PENANAkk5HAzsKhw
見此情景,她雖腦袋昏昏沉沉,卻仍忍不住道:「我說是誰,原來是大名鼎鼎的玉面盜,怪不得一出手就是金葉子、銀葉子,恐怕這幾兩對玉面盜而言,還是我少見多怪了──」262Please respect copyright.PENANAZAYTiQhLos
262Please respect copyright.PENANAgkVjxO08k5
「你渾說什麼?金葉子、銀葉子對爺而言,算得什麼?」262Please respect copyright.PENANAJMQc85QbYP
262Please respect copyright.PENANAwTmUujbbsg
旁邊有人猛地打岔進來,她感覺秦逍根本不曾打算開口,也渾不在意,卻不知這說話之人是誰。262Please respect copyright.PENANAM5gbXjF5kC
262Please respect copyright.PENANAguMd9CMrjz
只聽秦逍道:「替我將這姑娘攙了。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAcJvgxUjWmM
262Please respect copyright.PENANAfUFpKA27wo
那人應了,連忙喚來幾個婢女,眾人接過她虛軟的身子後,秦逍竟仍一路隨家僕們一起到她被安置的房裡,婢女們將她放上床榻,此時藥力將緩,她意識稍清了,忍不住道:「我不睡賊人屋裡的床。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAnJB1dx42wK
262Please respect copyright.PENANAMFjeqaxlf3
「姑娘稍歇,過幾個時辰姑娘醒了,在下自會將姑娘請下榻來相談。」秦逍也不生氣,面上笑容淡淡的,一夜沒睡他似乎也是倦極。隨後他到底和身旁家僕交代了什麼,她根本聽不清,也無心去聽。想起自己復仇不遂也罷了,竟任仇人輕視饒命,眼睜睜瞧霍顛揚長而去,比起這些惡人的可惡可恨,她更氣自己的無能為力。262Please respect copyright.PENANApcBbM5vSvA
262Please respect copyright.PENANAMFW3MW9wPf
「爺今夜又空手而回麼?」262Please respect copyright.PENANASfTlgPxVPj
262Please respect copyright.PENANAu0HkVnOVxq
「奪了賊老尤情婦的小金櫃,裏頭的珠寶渾沒啥稀罕,爺能瞧上眼麼?櫃裡的幾十兩金子銀子又都送給了店家。」262Please respect copyright.PENANA2tJctxSUpD
262Please respect copyright.PENANAPqGxmtm0sG
「爺素來這樣。只是我萬萬料想不到,爺竟會帶個姑娘回莊。」262Please respect copyright.PENANADRnRhOQ8qf
262Please respect copyright.PENANA5gq6BZIFPz
她躺了半晌,思緒漸漸平靜了,才恍惚聽起門外似乎有人談話。此時她雖無法運用內力,但意識愈來愈清明,耳力也敏銳起來。262Please respect copyright.PENANAoaJEHZdN4t
262Please respect copyright.PENANAmQItkG11Zi
「都過這許多年了,……姑娘還是爺最牽掛的。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAaDjBvZFeuj
262Please respect copyright.PENANAp9U3bcpcfB
「別提了,沒的惹爺傷心。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAr5fFjXtNVT
262Please respect copyright.PENANAYlGV5HfBqH
她立刻坐起身來,走出門外,一道日光強闖眼簾,見著那日頭的高度,她才發覺原來自己已躺了至少兩個時辰。262Please respect copyright.PENANAmg5gnWOTPa
262Please respect copyright.PENANAsc6nlNynJg
兩個在門外伺候的婢女見了她福身道:「姑娘。」262Please respect copyright.PENANA0ED213TOgg
262Please respect copyright.PENANAWQd8FpQ5W8
「秦逍在哪裡?」262Please respect copyright.PENANAS6mAdBeSwB
262Please respect copyright.PENANAoxe2ridc66
兩個婢女垂首互望一眼,其中一個趕緊又一萬福,口齒清晰地道:「回姑娘,我們爺一夜未闔眼,眼下還沒醒呢。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAqn7dIWpCrv
262Please respect copyright.PENANAG36JbEq5N0
黑衣女子沉吟片刻,忽然道:「我說過,我不睡賊人的床。帶我去秦逍那裏。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAVswQ3KXGZh
262Please respect copyright.PENANAHfdl5gPXnp
那婢女面露為難,「爺交代了,姑娘有什麼需要,但憑吩咐,但願姑娘能得片刻休息,待爺醒了,奴婢自會來稟報姑娘。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAO65ashztgl
262Please respect copyright.PENANAc8QkAoztPW
聽她們這般說,她心中不覺更氣,讓人饒命已是屈辱,這時這股仇恨的怒火又萬般不被對手看在眼裡。她舉步要走,兩個婢女連忙擋在前頭,她拐過頭去又走,兩人又急急忙忙攔住,口裡說道:「姑娘萬萬不可…不可妄自行動啊。」262Please respect copyright.PENANANlYsA88oqc
262Please respect copyright.PENANAxqa60XGduy
她忍不住要運氣提掌,誰知氣到了丹田處便再也上不來,只得低喝:「讓開!」262Please respect copyright.PENANAxALjvp6qUC
262Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZIN5XSrIe
「姑娘要去哪裡,奴婢帶路便是,只是姑娘的確萬萬不可妄自行動,這莊子布局巧妙,如無人帶路,姑娘恐怕會困在莊裡,一時尋不到的話──」262Please respect copyright.PENANAT58yCR49ns
262Please respect copyright.PENANAloKanPPn8g
聞言她微懍,「那麼你帶我去找秦逍。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAhLMCJ5Q9pv
262Please respect copyright.PENANA16kIzMi2NZ
「姑娘,奴婢說了,爺的確還未醒來,姑娘此時去了,又能怎麼樣呢?姑娘不如再歇會兒,待爺醒了──」262Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2209AaSM6
262Please respect copyright.PENANAAg7mZftoXA
「弦韶,你不如就帶她去罷,」屋宇忽然傳來一人的聲音,聽來稚氣未脫,卻似乎有股貴氣。黑衣女子當下朝屋宇環視了一二圈,卻並未瞧見任何人的身影。262Please respect copyright.PENANAHYAKxWB3cq
262Please respect copyright.PENANADnPdkRAIBa
「子迢公子回來了,」那婢女朝屋頂一隅微一福身道:「這是爺今晨帶回來的客人。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAF6VoafYA3Y
262Please respect copyright.PENANAxBVitbFlbr
「我已聽常叔說了,看來她說話雖好聽,脾氣卻是不小哪。」那少年的聲音一笑,接著道:「你不如就帶她去罷,爺雖未醒,但她既然想這麼乾瞪著眼,何妨就帶她去?普天之下想這般瞧著爺的女子,自紅樓莊排隊排到莽江去,可能都還排不完,但能這般瞧著爺的女子,卻恐怕只有──」262Please respect copyright.PENANABcpDfPMfXb
262Please respect copyright.PENANAJfcmA2XGJg
「子迢公子別開玩笑了,」那婢女竟打斷了他,福身道:「爺聽了會不痛快的。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAO6HLDUBn12
262Please respect copyright.PENANAsiOSGxig2M
「好吧,好吧,」那少年的聲音卻又笑道:「不過,與其讓她這樣糾纏,一時半會說不準還走丟了人,你不如就帶她去罷。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAlr7uEQHp1O
262Please respect copyright.PENANAJg9Muz4CAF
那叫弦韶的婢女狐疑地瞧著他,只聽少年又道:「有我在,她不能對爺怎麼樣的。」262Please respect copyright.PENANAk2t0dMfz5t
262Please respect copyright.PENANA2jN9xzlZaC
於是她就忿忿地讓那婢女領著,穿過果然非常複雜的一段路才來到秦逍房裡。也果然直到日上三竿,秦逍才終於醒來,她的一股氣也差不多都給等到平了。
