陸封一手握著塊漆黑的石塊，另一手握小刀，正聚精會神地鑿刻，石塊已初具一隻飛鳥雛形。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GXEOkxQ7Y

十日後，不，已是九日後，便是靖琛兄妹倆生辰，他計畫給靖瑤備下小禮，眼下正執行中。那烏溜溜的石塊取自厄蒼谷某石屋門邊，準確來說是陸封位於厄蒼谷臨時居所的門邊，作為生辰禮物似乎稱不上頂好，可陸封手邊已沒有更好的材料，便以親手雕琢的心意聊做補償。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUPfwKTgSDM

天族壽命長，為省事省心，一般每五百年方慶賀一次生辰，其餘年歲裡，部分天族便當作沒這回事兒，部分則會邀請幾位熟識的親友簡單圍桌吃飯。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EBKljW4zn
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlsWgpBjrW
靖琛兄妹倆，今年生辰並非大肆慶祝的一年，可天后向來疼愛子女，母子三人一塊兒吃點好菜，依然是必須的。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9jKsfX3bK

黑石塊質地軟硬適中，雕鑿不致費力，陸封就寢前便已雕好八九成，餘下拋光等收尾活兒，估計明日便能完成，他將小巧的石雕擺飾擱在桌上，準備歇下，一面盤算尋個時間將禮物送出。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5DKvSjENq

幾日後，倒是靖瑤找了過來，尋問陸封一塊兒看夕陽不？於是二人作伴至一十三天溜達。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wk9Fvw7Ir

靖瑤已有幾日不見陸封，夜宴前陸封若無事便會來尋她，而陸封來九重天作客那是日日皆清閒，是以二人日日碰面，按離綰說法：成日膩歪，一刻不閒。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtTSPqPvZV
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwr4SPEy1dR
「封哥哥近幾日在忙些什麼？可有事兒靖瑤能幫上忙？」千百種玉石折射斜陽，為靖瑤覆上七彩薄紗。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXVJQBOgYJ
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNFvXPQ8G4
陸封想起天后所說，百濟仙君講道之事，便說：「無事，只是前些日子新習得一套腳法，此前怎樣練習總不得要領，前幾日忽而瞭然，忙捉緊機會練練，熟記熟記。」71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2KXFxCSru
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaAKSnctVF
「原來如此，封哥哥可真上進！」靖瑤聞言喜笑顏開，早知如此，昨晚便不揪著親娘倒苦水了。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFNMd8RjcY

「郡主過獎。」陸封微笑，自廣袖中摸出一物，遞給靖瑤，道：「兩日後便是郡主生辰，特備下一物贈與郡主。」71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGsyqsyzwQ
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxI0TO7wcxw
靖瑤伸手接過，笑意燦爛，不輸七彩暮色，「封哥哥記得呀！多謝你啦。」71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpuiW2nOsz

經仔細拋光的漆黑石雕，光滑如銅鏡，就著此時灑進琉璃見生的夕陽，平添許多顏色，靖瑤反覆把玩，欣喜溢於言表，仔細瞧去，這石雕的圓鏡周圍細緻地刻有流水紋，與她的寒川鏡如初一轍，再看看一旁的飛鳥……71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4T9ZsnJ3Q
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeSAZduTdf
靖瑤抬頭看一眼陸封，低頭再看一眼飛鳥，伸出指頭，輕刮飛鳥烏亮的翅膀，眼底波光流轉。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaw0xWpRQh

晚膳前不久，靖瑤跟在天后身邊絮絮叨叨，一面協助娘親擺放碗筷，一面封哥哥長，封哥哥短，從頭到腳，由內而外，盛讚陸封。髮型、衣著、學識，談吐涵養幽默感，連鼻樑骨的角度都能誇，旁人若聽了怕是以為今日過生辰的乃是陸封。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0uyXYSi6d
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVh2kKB0eHP
天后一面敷衍地應和，一面欣慰閨女文學造詣勝過自個兒不少，講了大半時辰，那些個讚美詞彙竟沒一個重複，屬實厲害。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1josaBotR4
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvYREi18VC
好容易把遲到的靖琛等來了，靖瑤這才依依不捨地收起石雕與滔滔不絕地誇耀，母子仨一塊兒入座，慶賀兄妹二人又長一歲。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OaxH40MOt

佳餚陸續上桌，靖琛的筷子尖兒停在芙蓉魚片上時，門外傳來炎雲仙官通傳：「陸封公子求見。」71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4qkTOSdYR

陸封進門，施禮，其平淡與小郡主無心掩藏的欣喜對比鮮明。只聽他一板一眼道：「此行來訪前，梁渠君裁岳得知殿下和郡主生辰將近，提前備下薄禮，叮囑在下代為祝賀，卻不想來得遲了些，叨擾幾位用餐。」71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWxHD1cQle
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCyp2Hs8gY
天后擺擺手，道：「無妨，陸公子請講。」71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpY5iWpwX9p
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEgbdw4NjE
陸封聞言又是一揖，方才再次開口：「在此以魔君暫代裁岳名義，敬賀靖琛殿下、靖瑤郡主生辰。」語畢衝門外點頭，請人將東西拿進來。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DwlaWfpmV
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKvxnFlhTF
禮物是個漆木圓匣，及一塊半人高的煙灰色大木塊，陸封解釋道：「梁渠君聽聞殿下有意擇良木造一劍匣，特此贈與帝屋木一節，質韌而堅，氣長而恆，擅禦凶，盼殿下笑納。另有壽圖及妝匣贈與郡主，亦盼郡主笑納。」71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWB1dPWRIJi

天后自是代兒女一番客氣，收下禮物。而後，於靖瑤灼灼目光中，終究是開口邀約：「公子既然來了，不如同坐，一塊兒用膳吧？」71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIAARotfYc

沒成想陸封推辭了：「多謝娘娘美意，在下來得唐突已是過意不去，屬實不該繼續叨擾。」他想了想又道：「不如，敬娘娘與二位壽星一杯便好。」71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRtpFOAoAs
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DT4FM5jOp
靖瑤聞言雖感到有些失望，可瞧陸封十足拘謹的樣子，與平日同自己相處時大不相同，多半起因於她親娘顯赫的身份，強留在此那也是食不知味，便也沒說什麼，只親暱地同他招手，示意他上前來，親自斟滿一杯遞過去，笑說：「多謝封哥哥……與裁岳君的賀禮。」71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZngcdds93m
71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0ViclN9CO
陸封敬過靖瑤、敬過靖琛，輪到天后時，是陸封親自倒的酒，他從靖瑤手中接過酒壺，指尖拂過壺嘴，衝她微微一笑，隨即替天后滿添。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkbD7I4gdp

天后停在某個書架前，緊挨著靖瑤轉送給她的那盆偈韶華，伸手往裡邊摸索，手臂不經意滑過花瓣時，暈出一圈帶藍光的透明，十分襯托清冷月色。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRV8Mdq04P

她一貫淺眠，千奇百怪的事兒都夢見過，一對兒女降生以後，時常夢見忘了餵奶，忘了給娃兒搓澡，離綰到來接手帶娃以後，又常夢見弄丟奏摺，記不得氏族首領姓名等等瑣事。71Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQfzoIa01E
