扇子是白玉的柄，織金的面，繡的是雪景翩翩。離白一襲白袍，潑墨山水的織染。不見狐耳和狐尾，一頭銀色長髮也用術法變成黑色，斜斜的簪著紫玉，挽了個髻，這番收拾讓他少了幾分妍麗，卻多了幾分沉靜。腰間白玉帶掛著蓴帶彩的玉佩，雕的是個古體的離字。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk7QLArKPR

　　應玄仍是那襲玄衣，只是腰間多了柄劍，背後多了個行囊。看著離白，面無表情，只是眼中滿是寵溺和無奈。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kWEQj2dfn

　　他倆日昃才到這小城，在酒樓開了個上房便出來走走。這小城算不上繁華，卻也是一片熱鬧景象。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYDgiqj6zH
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTUWvejaZK
　　隨處有些小攤販，也有酒樓茶館。這不，遇見個道人。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3LiieVXDw
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcnau8Mkc3
　　那道人看上去有些福態，長相憨厚老實，看了離白一眼連忙低頭擺手，滿臉通紅：「不、不敢當……」304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAVPMg8RDO
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLj5EqKjbN7
　　離白玩了好一會兒，人都要貼上去了，應玄眼神一暗，一把把人拉回來。離白轉頭見到他的臉色陰沉，噗哧一笑，伸手揉揉他的臉。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz81mjUljR
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvINjCpnmb
　　應玄看著離白，哀怨之情溢於言表。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aNIXyp3hO
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxXHCIEsC3
　　離白縱聲大笑，拉著人就走，這下應玄也裝不下去了，嘴角不禁也溢出一絲笑意。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgx8EafKhtb
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRdNs2tjjR
　　「玄，你知道麼，我喜歡讓人算名字。」離白隨手買了一支冰糖葫蘆，含了一顆在嘴裡，眼角眉梢滿是歡喜：「我喜歡他們算不出來，然後你一次一次的說，我的名字是怎麼來的。」304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeN6Bsy6Tx
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0tsRDEDzf
　　應玄腳步一頓，拉住他。走在前頭的離白一個轉身，嫣然一笑。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZLKDgR3J2

　　「小傢伙，你是辛巳年秋天生的，庚辰辛巳白臘金，白臘金遇上丙寅爐中火才好，遇水則貴。辛巳喜秋喜火，正好是自然清貴的命格。」應玄笑了笑，順了順懷中白狐的長毛：「道號就叫離白吧，離屬火，白屬金。正巧我叫應玄，應字屬土，玄字屬水。火生土，土生金，金生水——水生木，木又生火——五行相生，生生不息。多好，你名中有我，我名中有你。」304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRBRJts9Fm

　　因為路上吃了不少點心，晡食就用的晚，也吃不多。他倆回到酒樓，讓小二上了幾盤小菜，一壺酒水，撿著喜歡的吃了。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPN79iGHgo3
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6ZZbfVSli
　　酒是店家自釀的果酒，香香甜甜，沒太多酒味，卻是後勁極大。幾杯黃湯下肚，離白頰邊飄上一朵紅雲，倒也不是醉了，只是眼神有些迷離。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyShUyZoIR
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTo9YpVZWGM
　　有言是酒不醉人人自醉，應玄見離白微醉之態，一口乾了杯中之物，又上了一壺竹葉青。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcQ3KLbbE6

　　「玄，咱們再去逛逛？」離白一手摸搓著酒杯，一手支著下巴。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ii2gDl1JL

　　「這小城裡沒有夜市的，你想逛哪？」應玄替離白滿上酒：「早點休息吧，明兒再逛。」304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kRedKb1DI
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4yzi8ExXh

　　城外就是一片樹林，伸手不見五指，萬籟俱寂。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPfUED0V3J

　　「要出事了。」離白突然笑道，打破了寂靜。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Q37NZcikq

　　「……白，別鬧。」應玄扶額，輕輕將劍彈出劍鞘。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKduriRbh8
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95ADETHGYM
　　樹林是不可能寂靜無聲的，即使是在最深的夜裡。總是有夜行的動物行動，即使沒有，也會有小溪澗水之聲。這樹林靜謐的可怕，一片死寂。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvlbZ9rWmt
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHjFE38tUF
　　突然一道白影掠過樹林。原本就陰沉的氣氛又多了幾分森冷。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCL1u2PK9n
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyndQgCgHmi
　　不知不覺離白又恢復一頭銀絲，尾巴沒有出現，但狐耳在頭上輕輕顫動。也許為了是增加感官能力。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEHQQbylBQ

304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBkhnWjgnP
　　「是他呢。」離白輕笑，接過應玄遞過來的白玉燭台。燭臺是一體成型的，雕著一隻似龍非龍，似蛇非蛇的動物。燭台上立著一根約莫手指長的紅燭。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ614RrzgvgI
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVZtVUIuaX
　　離白指尖一彈，一朵青色的火焰在指間跳躍靈動。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eBDpn8Z0c
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBk0vQfebqE
　　他緩緩地，想要點燃燭焰。很慢很慢，彷彿在等些什麼。他嘴角帶著戲謔的笑意，而應玄只是笑著看著。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNuDuRkDTF
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMnIimdz8D
　　就在要點燃之際，說時遲那時快，一陣強烈的紅光席捲整座樹林，目不可視物。光芒中有一隻爪子迅速伸向蠟臺。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGk3cN4mGm
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfX8bV19SB9
　　然而比那爪子更快的是應玄的手。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFkUBaxDUr
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfpt4yjLTC
　　瞬間一切又恢復黑暗，彷彿一切都從未發生。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbQcnJ0t50
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvqnwymjjq
　　「燭九陰，這是待客之道麼？」離白笑語盈盈。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvziKtrrYWO
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H6bAcEXiq
　　「擾人清夢，什麼狗屁客人。」沖天的紅光消失後，取而代之的是站在他們面前的一名高瘦青年。青年長相清雋，一身黑衣，衣服上繡著同那燭臺一般的動物——燭龍，燭九陰。眼睛上蒙著黑布條。說出的話跟高雅的外表打扮毫不相干。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTJzwbHYm2
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfjHG4v3nQ
　　「你在等我們？」應玄開口，劍眉微蹙。他倆的行程絕對沒有外漏，只是燭九陰不大不小也算個神，他倆也沒特別藏著掩著，推算一下便知了。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClZTbPb0zn
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YkttJzNLQ
　　「廢話，不然老子吃飽撐著？」他沒好氣的翻白眼。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JQKAkBxXj
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9Pm4DtV2v
　　「你好好一個山神，不待在自己的地方，做什麼來神州？」離白又從應玄手裡拿過那燭臺，明知故問道。燭九陰的眼神就隨著那燭臺移動。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFb3sUi9PO1
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrCYdHqWTl
　　鍾山之神，名曰燭陰，視為晝，瞑為夜，吹為冬，呼為夏，不飲，不食，不息，息為風。身長千里，在無啟之東。其為物，人面，蛇身，赤色，居鐘山下。*3304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQXj1aFv5V
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMESLT1m9C2
　　「我還以為有好玩的呢，結果是你，真無趣。」離白因為喝了點酒，講話更加肆無忌憚。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqT0GIHu4fO
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKJ8rC0YEm
　　「是我怎麼了？」燭九陰翻了翻白眼：「我就是在這等著，順便睡一覺，不行麼？」304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR02vcGsFJz
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hQcWFxHNu
　　離白噗哧一笑：「沒不行啊，我就是下山送送貨，再帶點上山，順路吵你起床唄。」睡著便伸出手：「你的東西我刻好了，法陣在燭臺下面。」說著展示了一下，果然在燭臺下方有個精巧的陣法。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DplQor5VV
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF1F21Brrj
　　「這陣法是讓你收斂力量用的，睡前點蠟燭，可讓鍾山煙霧繚繞，形成殺陣，就不會有不長眼的東西吵到你啦。」離白笑了笑：「只是你記得，你醒了燭火就熄，要供養燭臺七七四十九天才能再點上，你可別貪眠。」304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh8dsUZ4Ku

304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhs9bbQ3ISv
　　燭龍也知道這個道理，語氣稍有和緩，遞過一個錦囊，接過燭臺：「知道啦，下回需要再找你。」把玩一番又補上一句：「雕工真不錯，這生意我不虧。」304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15MPQP3cYt
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlazm6BFqTf
　　離白正檢查錦囊裡的東西呢，聽到燭九陰的話便抬起頭：「我倒是虧了，那玉燭臺花了我五天，下次你可要多換點玉給我。」304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75O5fY3hJT
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTUleVdejO
　　燭九陰不禁氣急反笑：「材料是我的，你不過動點刀！我存了幾萬年美玉都給你了！」304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MgsR8TSlI
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxwwPpKWE6
　　「價錢我說的算。」離白挑眉：「不然下次你找別人啊？」304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHJmx9zPVq
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9izSh5WUCY
　　「你你你你……」燭九陰氣的一口氣喘不過來，指著離白你了半天也沒說出個所以然。離白見他的窘樣不禁捧腹大笑，應玄見他開心了才開始打圓場。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb9mkfOq9G
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡya5uCZvVCe
　　好不容易送走了燭九陰。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVttgsfurF
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaykdLwHDS
　　天已半白。兩人抬頭望著天邊微微透出的晨光，樹林的靜謐隨著燭九陰的離去，恢復了生氣，漸漸的有了聲響。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNYMTawPTw
304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZzBBfUvCI
　　離白笑了，笑得燦爛耀眼，勝過晨曦萬分，一雙桃花眼流盼生輝。304Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1cJFMLYbC
