手才剛碰到宮落絮的裙角，他便像斷了線的提線木偶，歪著身子倒了下去。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xfAHqKC9D
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQbjuxsC0V
見狀，宮落絮掛在臉上的笑意也一瞬間退去。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtcG7lGpkm
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexr5bwCORa
她理了理自己的衣襟，嗅了嗅空氣中的瀰漫的香氣——沛扈南部特產的致幻香料，燒足兩柱香的時間，就能使室內之人恍入夢境，吸入肺中，不用一盞茶，就會墮入日思夜想的黑甜鄉。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJA044p5poQ
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueacuZGZ9I
身邊侍婢只當是一般的助興薰香，每次喚她們先行退下，她們周身都會散發隱晦難言的羞澀氛圍。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJEHaHyklG
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwlVFDbueC
宮落絮起身下榻，無意識皺緊了鼻子，自從「看」不見後，五感之中的嗅覺和觸覺就越發敏銳，這薰香的味道太濃烈，雖然聞不習慣，但勝在效果奇佳，在找到替代品之前只能將就著用了。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxN9gHYbFzw
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdN4X08PjxZ
一個動念，房內的屏風機關被啟動，隱藏的密道便出現在腳下，宮落絮駕輕就熟地進入闃黑且深不見底的地道之中，頭上的入口隨著她的進入也跟著緩緩闔上。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkg2H08ANW
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhUeEuGk50
婓城之內據她所探知到的密道就有不下十個，其中一條便是連通羿戮殿到攬月閣的路，這截彎取直的通道替她節省了不少路程，神不知鬼不覺就能到她想到的地方。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpHriz5rxx
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgcrg0hGqB
出了密道，順著盤旋而上的階梯，宮落絮到了攬月閣的至高點，四周開闊，隨風翩韆的帷幔將這一方天地與外界相隔。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ354TuG21XV
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCUnQIG7sO
上一次跟赤夜對飲就是在這，她那時候只知道一股腦地悶頭喝酒，把赤夜喝倒後，為了更清楚地看見月亮，她一個人爬到琉璃瓦頂，對著月色又是一頓豪飲。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyMmRtZk5t
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7IRCqThnv
不知是否因薰香的作用，此時宮落絮只覺得一陣睏倦湧上心頭，神智逐漸昏沉朦朧，像被一團迷霧輕攏著，卻又掙脫不開。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIgoTYLwMx
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWZPuX9oqr
她就近尋了個樑柱靠著，本想閉目調息，來抵銷層層倦意，可這抹疲乏有如夜幕之下的潮水。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvnFso3UA7
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0XnkSe2Qg
剛伸出手想要觸碰它，就被溼答答的水氣浸透衣袖，一點一滴纏上她的手臂，蠱惑著她向前一步，再向前一步。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTibxa1eZF
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyq3g0YmpEt
等她半個身子都探進水裡，她才發現潮水之下，是幽不見底的深淵，一道浪潮襲來，將她的意識盡數吞沒……604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzAshzZNNo
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfW4nL3darz
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRi5Hg4PP1S
「師父跟你說什麼了？還特地支開我，搞得神神秘秘的。」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFGqJn7Ybk
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5vFListOB
「你想知道？」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBUNEzywnH
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVsw2L9QGh
「……」不，她不想知道。「愛說不說。」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIm0DIt4AG
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPZZ6iyYE2
沿途風景優美，群山層巒疊起，那是個陽光和煦的午後，為了參加四年一次的演武大會，她和師弟才剛拜別師門，就開始忙著趕路。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2qSbdHS5a
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGs6ysDbtXK
不想理睬師弟的廢話發言，宮落絮一個提神運氣和他拉開了一段距離。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz9G9LJqCa
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEiDY8nC7O
「好啦好啦！」師弟追了上來，與她並肩而行，「師父讓我此次下山，要護你周全。」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh197nH9WER
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YWPecszbB
「我不需要誰的保護。」宮落絮對師父的交代不太苟同，努了努嘴。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppDXU6UvnV
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQRzlprfft
「放心！不管發生什麼事，只要有我在，就不會讓你受一分傷害！」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysH8rLvjKy
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvY3QGYB3zl
「吹吧你。」師弟信誓旦旦的言詞引得宮落絮一陣嗤笑，「論武功，我比你厲害，要說保護也是我護著你吧？」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJXWR93Sss
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbzSt4jILf
「這你就要去問師父她老人家了。」師弟雙手枕在腦後，望著頭上刺眼的光芒，天外飛來一句，「欸？也許是師父比較看重我也說不定？」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQA72E5NTK
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4W4bz3dAL8
宮落絮揶揄道：「看重你什麼？難不成是看中你闖禍的本事？」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmH7YZXHUOc
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjffGrlNqw
「師姐你三天不打上房揭瓦啦！」師弟佯裝生氣，抬手就是一掌，「看招！」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzDUYuW1iI
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDdM15Y2EO
「哈哈哈，來啊小師弟！就憑你先抓到我再說吧！」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRecRirno6
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghjdfWaq8U
師弟緊追在她身後，作勢要跟她拚個你死我活，否則不肯罷休的樣子。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJltGNxdn5
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWT4nBkRdFK
她則在前頭卯足全力飛奔，不讓他追上，只是跑沒兩步，身後突然沒了聲響，天地變色像被誰按了禁聲扭，靜得讓人毛骨悚然。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCF4cHtMsnU
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡes8NOtALev
她陡然回過頭，沒有看見師弟的身影，本該掛在頭頂的太陽被堅硬石壁取代，四周潮濕陰冷——這是一座不見天日的山洞。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThyHKnTtjO
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmu7kNaiiK2
山洞深處有個黑影倒在地上，不知是生是死。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5oNfyQMML
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4wpfrORL3
她緩緩靠近，心底不可自抑的恐懼感隨著越靠近那個人越發高升，心跳突突突的越跳越快，快到她整個人像要燒起來一樣。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriG2idk4ag
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vWwxLIWk5
在緊張和不安的情緒交互支配之下，她幾乎要喘不過氣。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaumJ7smhKB
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffKk9THZvI
拜託。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpLPyhNt8r
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbppHWAtZTt
不要是她想的那樣。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBltfbdeqha
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wEBJLqsrZ
蹲下身，指尖剛碰上那人掩住面容的髮絲，虛弱的聲音就貼著她的脈搏，傳入耳裡。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIxYwfH5Wk
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9YRxvBlC6
「師姐……你不要哭……」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98BF9jbOLd
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUWFsuj4am
什麼？604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdthwfQpkWQ
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqCDEQTygC
她哭了嗎？604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uCXvNMmiP
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSfo6iB6Ji
她抬手摸臉，才發現臉上全是淚水，手上還沾著溫溫熱熱的液體，攤開手心一看，她竟一時之間無法分辨這是她，亦或是師弟的血。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DjS4GeHPQ
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkcNAkbTBc
師弟似乎想安慰她，拼命撐開被血水糊住的眼睹，吃力地看著她。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFDb66nZsn
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l8VWP3sYr
「我不疼的……」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxjMgql8dW
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwtk1meRyw
只是那雙眼睛早已失焦，失去光芒的瞳孔浮出一層將死之氣。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwmrfzFfYe
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJxFViX7Oc
沒有哪個瞬間比此時此刻更清晰地感受到生命的衰亡和脆弱，她知道他的生命正在倒數，她想抱住他，像把流沙攢在手心那樣，她要阻止時間的流逝。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0EmYVc7tf
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjekmYfbdFq
他不可以死，她不要他死。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5XEmenRQ5
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBUrScihsT
可不知為何，手上一點力氣都沒有，她連抱著他這麼簡單的動作都做不到。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DbKlTLrzn
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIuMzH6lJh
「阿莫……你再撐一下……」她狼狽而無助地跪伏在他身上，忍著滿腔酸楚，說出口的話連她自己都不確定，「我會想辦法的……我一定不會讓你死…… 」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwaSkVInWF
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TzIvUtVaM
「好……」師弟艱難地從擠出一個字後，忍不住咳起來，污血順著他的唇角流淌。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdm55ZXUbS
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIaofmUPpW
她抵著他的胸膛，聽見他的心跳聲好弱，像瓢潑大雨下隨時會被撲滅的篝火，只能迸發出零星的火光。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3OaDO3b0U
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtgOtcnGqd
誰都可以，拜託誰來救救他？604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDf0lOVvCve
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LHxVKubOw
「對不起……我來晚了……我明明……咳、咳！答應過師父的……」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YWlAS0Tgi
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBwc6u7CoJ
「不晚，一點都不晚。」她手使不出力，腳也像被人灌了泥漿，邁不開步伐。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilmocfrMTw
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2ySPkjn7L
她只好扯開喉嚨向無邊的黑暗求救，希望有人能聽見聲響，過來查看狀況，只要有人能帶他出去，也許就還有希望。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5h9Z1D5iK
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwr4fagRxry
不管是誰，不管什麼代價，只要能救活師弟，她都可以答應⋯⋯只要能救活他⋯⋯604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrDAVpwv70
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacDsHePW4N
她抱著渺小的冀望，祈求上天垂憐，可是喊了好久，喊到她聲音沙啞，她的呼喚就像石沉大海，沒有人聽見。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dhxJxyCgm
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtm54800N3R
唯一回應她的，是師弟彷彿遺言般的囈語。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgef1VPxvpA
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1UIhXLFSj
「如果……我死……」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nhkeXTgjg
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhHpmHNDAI
「你先不要說話！」她倉皇出聲打斷他，好像這麼做，就可以不用面對殘酷的現實，「你不會死的，你會好好的⋯⋯會好好活著的⋯⋯」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp42Vbl1wg8
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEF6BgRPsY
師弟他笑了。
他笑得很輕，喟嘆一般轉瞬即逝的笑聲隔著胸腔，震到她的耳膜，她捉到了那薄如蝶翼般流轉的光采，是他生命盡頭的最後一束光。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7hhXx4EBC
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIU6Y14de14
「……我……沒有後悔過……」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPDJ1tmS39
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6bd630mgT
「還有人在等你回去，你還有好多事沒做完……不是嗎？」她不知道該怎麼把他留下，她只能讓他去抓住那些念想，抓住一根與世界牽連的繩子 ，還有他的牽掛，彷彿他多握住一瞬，就能多出一種可能性。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfTFW6Dfry
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1CfflFQoo
只是他的聲音出賣了他，藏不住的虛弱氣息支撐不了他的身體，準備馱著他去遠行。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjexDKibSp
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHGOvFJm3v
那注定是一場有去無回的歸途。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaYj23JOk8
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJAOoUPph6
「我……恐怕要讓……失望了……」氣弱游絲的話音，她必須要貼緊他的唇才能聽得清楚。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdq0koWYBki
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAfRhwpNJZ
師弟說得很費勁，一段話要換好幾口氣才能說完，哪怕她再不願意面對。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIHowWdaAf
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGfjB69rad
此時她也必須承認，他的時間到了。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoAqojIBQd
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlkS7Kgowe
「……死後……懷中的東西……帶、帶給她……」他囁嚅著耳語，其實好幾個字都模糊不清，她都誤以為是風聲。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEWKcBFanV
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgh21GON4AE
再仔細一聽，才發現那是他在說話。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFdMhBaeEC
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHATdMz93Pr
過了好久好久，她回神過來，發現山洞裡很安靜，吹在肌膚上的風很涼，師弟不說話了，胸口的聲音也聽不見了。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8mnnYvYbe
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTT3SQ1KFqB
一把火莫名從地底竄出來，將他裹住，他的身影被烈焰燒焦、扭曲、變形，熾熱的火焰中傳來萬鬼哭嚎般，撕心裂肺的吶喊。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVB99j3JDn
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37wB305BXz
——救——救——我！604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeR506uWkPF
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZB9Mt9ylF
灼熱的浪潮向她惡狠狠地撲來，像被捆著投進滾燙岩漿中，宮落絮只覺得窒息難受，想深吸一口氣，就忽地一個激靈，猛然驚醒。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqOQFJtTye
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW61XofPwTb
冷汗浸染衣襟，晚風吹來，帶出夢境之外的餘悸，她頓時倦意全無。
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGicpQOtay
隔日天才剛亮，典樂司就派人將任位大典的禮服送來試穿，從焚香沐浴到梳妝打扮，最後整裝完畢，前後耗費了足足三個時辰。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCYuW6guFo
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQp6SSNZ7Xu
褪下繁重的華服，眼見午膳時間將近，典樂司的官員簡單詢問過宮落絮的意見後，就帶著原班人馬躬身告退。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4hO1OwVGm
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4tLwRhyxm
午膳結束，看著幾乎原封不動被撤下的菜餚，柳兒本想出聲關切一下，卻被依依搖頭阻擋了下來。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfbqVS6hsO
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiSpYg1TC5
今日的魔君大人似乎有些魂不守舍，雖然旁人看不出來，但作為貼身服侍她的侍婢們，都有著一顆善於察言觀色的玲瓏心思。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAynFpLUBO
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWz3GvDOqvr
這個時候多餘的關心只會徒增困擾，有時候留下一個安靜的空間，反而讓人有喘息的餘地。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBx5DP8NEw
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3KwBAM5WB
柳兒和依依將醫官煎煮的湯藥放在案上後，就安靜地退於殿外守著，隨時聽候魔君大人的差遣。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtdRgn7gNs

宮落絮手中的書冊閱讀到一半，通報進來的赤夜就率先發話。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2vLF8SrGN
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbuBSkMMof
「聽管事說您午膳用的不多，是不合口味？要不要屬下命膳房換個菜色，等等再讓他們送來？」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWiFRZmL03
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVPClrRFOW
「不用麻煩。」宮落絮實在沒胃口，也不想節外生枝，隨口敷衍了幾句，「本君還不餓，晚上再多吃一點就好了。」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygvowuaHzs
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy62CSD8lwu
一眼掃過桌上紋風不動的藥汁和宮落絮的臉色，赤夜問道：「主君近日身體還好嗎？」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDO5hsos0G
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4z7SKBhGVQ
「嗯，前幾日給醫官診過了，一切如常。」604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJg0J38ZQXv

宮落絮剛想拿起調羹喝藥，一道電流就從經脈竄走，她一時拿不穩手中的東西，摔碎在地上引起巨響。604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6g03HnYvf
604Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAs6NShNQx
「主君！」赤夜一聲驚呼，看著她壓抑的神色，彷彿如臨大敵。
