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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeezv0nK3o

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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlyhrTvGS8

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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZqTc1Sbuj

「要是他當時不說我可以去找他，我興許是不去的……」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJef2FpEPch

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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCwS7qPvyI
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0zzQHmukQ
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。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXsXnl6Xb3
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPucxY8lqMs
「我怎麼了……？」莊周躺在榻子上，看著跪在身旁的惠施。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAe9O5H4ee3
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVXSDwHqHX
「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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0gMM1addN
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJMGzLvpH6
「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？」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHSCELo8ML
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESYtBQY4ja
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？」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI0RT3q9Is
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7AuSE3dmk
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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWP3gFG3e1
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7p5FxxHA4
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？」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AHS8f9Hue
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv1XltHmQk
莊周明白了。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XFExw75A4
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZ8ojR0KDv
『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？」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqI3EnEyCix
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vgo9hp7Nz
「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。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvSU6lEZNK
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfr8jCwJuN
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。』578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZDOwDQpL9
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFUHdg6jPt
便吩咐道：「往我房裏加一套被子。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPYD09e15r
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOWMrY3zon
家奴不解。惠施道：「莊先生與我同房。」得令，這才退下。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67DsQWzaKx

578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoJmdjq9Rb
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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7MHPc55Zj

他本想回頭，惠施卻說道：「別回頭，我幫你擦背。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMY8NEdOIiO

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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJCfWX18it
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1R1eY25Wc
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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7x41lUzh7
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAFXDf6pRd
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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXihi1WdXS
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWxuLrkLlL
莊周說道：「惠子，等病養好，我就離開大梁。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Cmn4mr8vs

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。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAL8tgCGaR
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SGiuGC0Nk
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？」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELeDFmh2nq
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM0ySiIoA7
「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。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07ykxmjGvJ
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3JnlfZn8Z
「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？」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMEj57XzFU
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAG0RXFByFQ
「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。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4zQ1LJ34T
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTFyz233eJ

莊周的幾個門徒準備了祭品，偕他一塊兒上墳。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99l7JGOgw7
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2iVlBqLeT
門人見到夫子的神情十分黯淡，本想開解他，莊周告訴他們：「我同你們說個故事。」門人們便朝他一拜：「夫子請講。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4lWlnC6bi

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。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtoBjDmkZP
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz2Nza9yKB
「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。』」

郢人斫堊，該典故最早出自莊子《郢人》。
