盂蘭盛會。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqEXPplVIW

這是陽間的夜晚時份，本來是瀝青地足球場上在仲夏之前臨時建起了這碩大的建築物。竹支搭建而成的戲棚傳來一種發霉木塊的味道，夾雜著善信燒香的煙薰味。露天戲棚內燈火通明，靠著舞台上的射燈燈光，把台下一排排的座椅染上陣紅陣黃的熱鬧顔色。台上花旦小生正演一幕文戲，在後台旁的樂師像在打瞌睡。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ084HZvSGSl

時候已經不早了，觀眾席上只剩下得疏疏落落幾隻人影，幾個伯伯腦袋瓜跟著節拍來回搖動，用著走腔的音調也唱一份。小羽不禁懷疑，到底在座的有幾多位根本不是人類。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa167BgXc2u
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQicbTih9Xs
帶位的伯伯耳邊插了根皺巴巴的香煙，忙著在角落跟清潔嬸嬸串門子，似乎沒打算帶剛進場的小羽就坐。她還留在一旁未踏進去，把觀眾席來回掃視了一遍，肯定坐在正中那一個人就是目標。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdTbaGpAHl

一個年約四十多歲的蒼白男人端坐在中間，一身雪白的造型跟這舊戲院極不搭配。他身穿一件銀白色絲質寛袖長袍，腰間插著一把鐵骨紙扇，就算放進古裝街也毫不突兀。他灰髮藍眼、寛掌長臉，高䠷的身栽在狹窄的座椅之間，坐得有點侷促。小羽不禁亂猜，這白爺好可能是個患白化病的白子，更有可能是個半唐蕃混血洋人。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcR6eJzZXj
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ydYKNz3bL
小羽二話不說擠到他旁邊，那人連眼尾也沒轉過來，雙眼仍舊盯著舞台。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AJmECmitH
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhhbWnWVwR
「您好，閣下就是白爺謝必安先生不是？」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAQMt6TvpD
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMlm0KVOSp
「等一下可以嗎？我最喜歡這一場戲。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZBcOTAk8f
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE647swrtua
那男人沒有直接說小羽認錯人，大概可以當是默認吧。其實白爺外表不過是正值盛年的年紀，怎樣說也稱不上一個『爺』字。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcb3BcnY23
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEVfbOmk8t
那男人指頭敲著手靠打拍子，點頭哼著歌詞：「...盼得花燭共諧白髮...誰個願看花燭翻血浪...」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtc9sy4VAXX
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3LFlOfWch
小羽望著這場悶得發毛的粵曲，老實不客氣的打了個瞌睡。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBYe6uRC4c
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxazawJO6O
「...朗月引路到仙鄉...」那男人鼻子抽了一下，閉上雙眼繼續哼唱：「...雙雙仙侶共泛銀河浪...」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuXuEk2szZ
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLuBeykr67
小羽知道再怎樣叫也沒用，唯有靜靜等下去。好在戲目已近結尾，還不到五分鐘時間就謝幕。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUVZ1f6FRd
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlBUm4XgYt
那蒼白男人緩緩站起來，慢慢向著出口走去，完全無視了旁邊的小羽。這實在有點太囂張了，小羽壓住怒氣，繞個圈子追上去。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLC1zlcWcJ
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnMlJsxtEi
「白爺！」小羽趕及在戲棚出口追上去。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkn1WOZocf
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EZlH7xDeX
蒼白男人停下腳步，眼神空洞，明明在望著小羽的眼睛，卻教人覺得他根本沒有看著自己：「小妹妹，如果我想應妳的，剛才已經應了；不想理妳的，妳認為跑過來我就會理會妳嗎？」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK38Vbke1Tz
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWnY3BVqb2
「白爺，但是是盲毛叫我來的。您不是有個任務委託...」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfgMJUBaz2
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zYDZfhMY5
「酒場沒有再好的死神了嗎？我沒想過應徵的會是個小女孩。」 427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXKB2efn2x
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1Y8bhXr7e
「女孩就有甚麼問題？」小羽也不甘示弱：「待我有朝一日成了閻王，就有你好看的。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLdMWfuD6d
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbfQ28fkZV
白爺眨眨眼，好幾秒鐘沒作半點反應：「妳意思是：妳想當閻羅王？」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFnpptae6J
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxdcUBXwu0
「對啊。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ziPTa6CA4
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXwSLXgOor
「哈哈哈哈...這是我四百年來聽過最有創意的笑話。」白爺沒好氣地答：「那我不阻妳繼續發這春秋大夢了，哈...竟然有個乳臭未乾的小女孩，說她想當上閻王...哈...荒謬...真荒謬...」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP3zaNHQ9T
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEn0W2nuJ8
「為甚麼不行？」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgAcwPXYfA
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUETGs7hRI
「數千百年以來，根本就沒有出過像妳這樣的閻王。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yYy6uzTZT
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPui66ZM4bt
「我有甚麼問題？」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qUTQ5l4Ua
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUU82vmMits
「妳？妳肯定妳過得了那十八重地獄的關卡？」白爺搖搖頭：「只不過妳只有十幾歲、妳也沒有超凡的智慧、也沒有神祇般的法力。而且，妳是個女的。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOd9jeWreb
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdDewURPhJ
小羽挖一挖鼻孔，她最不喜歡聽到這種『不行啦、不可以啦、沒可能啦』一類的廢話，還有那封建的性別歧視。她隨手把鼻屎乾彈走，再把拍拍白爺膊頭：「那我就做第一個吧。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0AwVvK3rN
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9K6gJOItRm
白爺急忙退後一步，甩開小羽的手。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTF0iFVAOV
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfGvZAkIUN
「我想，這千百年來也沒有人敢把鼻屎抺在你身上，對吧？」小羽望著白爺一身近乎潔癖的純白套裝，肯定沒有人夠膽挑釁這一板一眼的老頑固。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOuCX71yOW
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYV62YfyKj
白爺先是呆了一下，卻不期然笑了出來。他來回踱了幾步：「我倒很欣賞妳這瘋瘋癲癲的性格。」他態度似乎沒剛才那麼冷漠。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvTEL09tfw
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRiBLNZpqp
白爺望望空空如也的戲台，靜止不動了好幾秒，微微笑一笑：「委託的事，等我好好考慮一下。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUj3JMDLg9
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtir3CAKGM5
說罷白爺轉身就走。小羽呆在原地，慢慢覺得有點不對勁。427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigTy2CpQbb
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8cEuL7Y1t
「等等，白爺！」小羽追上去：「明白人說明白事，那甚麼大不了的偵測任務，找我就找我，不然就叫別的死神去做吧。別浪費本小姐青春，本小姐可不能無止境的等你答覆。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVOMWqFCBf
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZ5pej5Mkh
白爺再次望著小羽，雙眼卻不是剛才那種空洞的目光，而是仿佛能穿透別人想法的銳利眼神。他稍稍寬容下來，除除的道：「很好...很好...面對拒絕，妳處理得不錯。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqGtQeZg26
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLr7UaNzzj
他...在試我？427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwnD9Kw4C8
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnG9xuymOj
戲棚的大光燈調暗，小羽才記起時候已經不早了。白爺突然一臉認真的吩咐小羽：「好吧，給妳一個機會。要是任務出了甚麼差池的話，小心我對妳不客氣。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhrRtKYvlo
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3leOHll0wL
「呃...好啊。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDDzBypQCw
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOYvHnjY7U
「明天陽間早上八時正，妳再來這個戲棚找我。」427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9akgDkMF1u
427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSHupS5s7D
小羽正想多問一句的時候，眨眼間發覺白爺已經失去踪影。 427Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEamTv1irF
