日暮時分，在夕陽的金燦光暉拂照下，這座被綠水碧波環抱的江南小鎮，渲染出江暖霞柔的水鄉風光。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucsSWwnmp6
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAAUbNGiWv
開滿於水道上的蓮花，飄散出潔淨清雅的芳香，舒展的蓮瓣有如佛者的玉手，輕捧著照拂萬物的夕暉霞光。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiNHQC921i
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOmAFkOcfu
幾艘行渡於寬闊水道上的蓮舟，穿梭於田田蓮葉間，擺盪出陣陣漣漪，使江水蕩漾出一片金光粼粼。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNF4hmW7RK
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLo6RBCEg8p
獨自乘坐最後一艘蓮舟的坎水，在這稍嫌暑熱的仲夏時節，她輕輕脫下寶藍色外袍，穿著鎮民贈與她的藕衫水裙，大方裸露出柔白脖頸及纖纖玉臂。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRcoY4Zd4I
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ddIBPmbxQ
她的水色秀髮如流瀑般滑過削肩傾洩而下，清澈瞳眸映照出江面上的灩灩金波，沒有所謂不莊重的輕薄風騷，而是隨性自在的清麗脫俗。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAwD9ZCC8e
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9TLX5xxP0
坎水將幾縷髮絲撥至耳後，懸掛於耳邊的水滴狀靈飾也輕輕地晃動了幾下，搖曳著靈核透射出的水光瀲灩。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQ8mULouX8
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pKviDHsjy
這個靈飾由天山仙泉凝煉出的水靈石打磨而成，是坎水施展仙法的重要媒介，也儲藏了她大量的法力，現在她正使用仙法操弄江水的流向，使江水自然推動蓮舟往前航行。這個大多數鎮民必須花費一兩年才能徹底學會的渡舟仙法，身為外地人的坎水竟只花五天的時間就運用的駕輕就熟，令許多當地人佩服不已。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgyy6RkS69
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqYxR5X2sK
坎水伸出手輕撫如絲綢般柔滑的微暖江水，遨遊四方的她，見識過各地的水性，像是大河驚濤裂岸的浩浩蕩蕩、滄海廣闊無邊的浩渺煙波，以及清泉遺世獨立的幽冷深靜。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0StmzBDPIb
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HQjBgGQPg
但沒有一處像這裡的水一般，澄澈明淨的江水悠悠流淌，從內到外皆浮染蓮香，宛如純真稚子般的歡快活潑，又蘊存佛家包容天地的慈悲善性。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdJrp6jd8D
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfyg5aLLq1
因此她十分喜愛這裡的水，就像被這裡的水撫育生養的鎮民一樣，存有這塵世難得的純樸善心。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VXyEGe89h

在最前頭蓮舟的舟夫，望見水岸碼頭時發出清亮綿長的吆喝聲，另一邊回應的吆喝聲，便乘著薰風越過水面而來，互相呼應的吆喝聲和江水行舟的水聲潺潺，交會出天地與人間渾然天成的諧和音律。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4SsZ7vrHu

「唉，坎水姑娘她們回來了，大家快過來喔。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6SGa9QEZP
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8s0jhXtT64
一呼百應，不分老女老少，鎮民們紛紛聚集到窄小的碼頭，對不遠處的蓮舟舟隊揮著手高聲呼喊，迎接他們的歸來。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3curTTcPD
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgb4C2rzpg
前方的幾艘蓮舟率先靠岸，鎮民合力將蓮舟綁固於岸上的繫舟樁旁。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTssoZQZmyW
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoqUbHvWN5
不久，坎水所乘的蓮舟最後抵達碼頭，當坎水踏上岸邊的青石台階，鎮民們便一股腦地湧到坎水身旁，關切的詢問道：「坎水姑娘，請問碧江的情況？」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QqCkGM5ym
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IG4rN2kKr
「大致上都已經整治好了，今年應該不會有水患了，請各位放心。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOpHNg0JVA
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGY3QTGKaS
聽見坎水肯定的回覆，像是雨過天晴般，鎮民們臉上的憂色一掃而空，坦然露出歡喜的神情，連聲向坎水道謝。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJHuNF0RrF
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwPrRKHutQ
「唉啊啊，太好了，太好了，坎水姑娘是我們連方鎮的大恩人啊。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiS1SHwNUQE
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPYyInZOKT
「就是啊，之前碧江暴漲的時候，也是坎水姑娘救了我們的命，簡直就像傳說中的法華大仙啊。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH18Ku0S1QZ
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1k1yeP4fND
「坎水姑娘就來我家坐坐吧，我一定會好好招待妳的。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1sHQvkWpJ

「你說什麼啊，坎水姑娘可是青門客棧的貴客，你家比得上青門客棧嗎？」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUS6TQtFlhX
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nNN8T96r5
鎮民們此起彼落的談話如同江水般滔滔不絕，坎水始終以溫婉笑容面對他們的一片熱忱。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzleyWkfPb
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpNtbLOxVf
一個月前，雲遊四海的坎水行經碧江岸邊時，正巧看見因碧江大漲而落水呼救的連方鎮鎮民，就施展仙法將鎮民救上岸。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfG5vV11Dku
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ArLjmWw1A
之後她從得救的鎮民口中得知，這條碧江流經不遠處的連方鎮，不但形成鎮裡四通八達的縱橫水道，也是居民賴以維生的重要水源。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQyoGRnNbW
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFbUY45diq
但是近年來，碧江上游的青鸞峰因過度開採鐵銅礦導致山石鬆動，每逢夏令時節的黃梅雨季，連日的大雨便會沖刷青鸞峰的土石，導致碧江水位高漲，造成嚴重洪患，令鎮民連年來苦不堪言。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKC0ro5iXfA
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqSc7HhGLo
生性慈善的坎水聽到這件事，不忍鎮民承受水難之苦，於是決定留在連方鎮幫助他們解決洪患。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4geMECdjey
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcBZf3GwLq
坎水長年與江海為伍精通水性，自然明白如何疏浚分洪，擅使操水仙法的她也能有效疏導江流，加上全鎮居民對防洪工作的全心投入，碧江的整治僅一個月左右的時程便頗有成效，連方鎮也回歸往昔水澤小鎮的寧靜悠然。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMFaBY5lg2
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveOP9MlBc9
「對了，坎水姑娘，三日後就是我們鎮上的渡蓮仙會了，還請妳一定要留下來。」一名婦人拉著坎水的手殷勤地說道，初次聽到這名詞的坎水疑惑地問：「渡蓮仙會？是連方鎮上特有的節日嗎？」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5nigHN0rh
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWTVs0fjcW
「外地人應該不會知道我們這偏僻小鎮的節慶吧，但渡蓮仙會可是我們這裡最好的日子了。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcC7gRUfUkk
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRcB5D9YzG
「是啊，今年因為有坎水姑娘，我們才能好好地舉辦渡蓮仙會，請坎水姑娘一定要來看看啊。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWLsHZb7pM
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtN2axJUfNd
坎水原本打算治理好碧江後就向鎮民們告別，繼續萍蹤浪跡的漂泊旅程，但鎮民們的懇切慰留，讓她不好意思就此離去，加上她自身對渡蓮仙會相當感興趣，便決定在連方鎮多留一段時日。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLPoURldBC

夜色如墨，家家戶戶紛紛點起懸掛於外牆的水漣燈，水漣燈的燈心是從碧江凝煉成的水漣石，注入法力後發出的光有如清明水光，明亮了沁涼如水的恬靜夜晚。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuc5BMn0D7

一名老者獨自端坐於青門客棧的臨江水閣，他就像是屹立於滾滾江流中的巖石，雖然外貌是被人間浪濤磨蝕出的老態龍鍾，內裡卻是漫長歲月所積累的穩重堅毅。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYbzTZxqRa
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRZzC419i0
在老者面前的石桌上，青瓷茶壺內的茶湯被炭爐煮得暖熱，飄散出氤氳茶香，與被雨水洗得清透的淡淡蓮香，融混成更加悠遠清洌的芬芳。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAmK90xrxw
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5JG7R4MRb
老者如深潭般幽寂的雙瞳，望向閣外的夜景，他所注視的那朵同莖共生的並蒂蓮花尚未綻放。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHWMkXug8N
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLhrDxqgzx
然而悄然來訪的綿綿細雨，在水面上掀起一波波微小漣漪，雨打荷葉的聲響幽微而空靈，於朦朧的江南煙雨天聽來格外清晰，喚醒了如夢幻泡影的前塵往事。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3V9lQWhuYo
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZF4z5LIg8q
此情此景，都與他記憶裡始終鮮明的雨夜如出一轍，唯一不同的是，那曾與他共賞夜雨，煮茶清談的故人已然逝去，而他也將跟隨那位故人的腳步……578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmZWsS00ZQ
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLXzqZZtp9
「咳咳……」老者摀住嘴輕咳了幾聲，他枯皺的掌心多了幾分怵目驚心的紅，再次提醒他的時日無多。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPW2iDKyFVP
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJLDo8vgco
「漪洀先生，抱歉，讓你久候了。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YoGAcVRXG
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXnP59tdlk
此時坎水踏著輕盈蓮步朝他走來，漪洀悄悄用帕巾拭去掌上的血，然後擺手說道：「坎水姑娘，不必這麼客氣，請坐。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEg8Y0zkwP1
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlM2N1bu2nN
坎水與漪洀相對而坐，她的姿態端正秀雅宛若亭亭玉立的蓮荷，透發出淤泥而不染的潔淨氣息。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTEJ2GRMIg
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MzgtdjDj4
「坎水姑娘，這些日子以來辛苦妳了，真不知怎麼感謝妳。¬」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15l5ZZlwHl
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHQG4QDsYM
「我才要感謝漪洀先生，肯供我這樣身無分文的過客食宿。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkI1zNjnYG2
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiMzF7fpk9
漪洀是青門客棧的掌櫃，是連方鎮裡德高望重的長者，救濟了許多飽受洪患之苦的鎮民，因此鎮民們對漪洀皆是敬重有加。而在坎水留在連方鎮的這段時日，漪洀就讓她住在青門客棧的上房，不收分文且招待周到。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOpqxoPmZv
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoVBvIq05y
「你替我們這小鎮做了這麼多，我這樣根本算不上什麼，現在老身也只能以這點粗茶聊表心意了。」漪洀在坎水的青竹茶盞裡注入茶水，澄清的碧綠茶湯浮盪著一枚淡粉蓮瓣，更顯雅致清趣。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4bohwJchn
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyft9upYXA
坎水柔如花瓣的雙唇湊近杯緣，清冽茶水滑入坎水口中的剎那，喉舌間便凝聚了一股頗具深韻的苦澀，但細嚐到底後，舒展開來的是滲入心脾的清透甘甜。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJndUEerEm
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJVq3JGxAF
「這盞蓮心清露，對我已是足夠的回報，我離開這裡後定會十分想念。」坎水向漪洀微笑說道。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOXAEB41Gn
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPJiv8FMEg
蓮心清露是連方鎮獨有的佳茗，主要是以蓮花的花瓣及蓮子，再收集蓮葉上的朝露烹煮而成，但其熬煮手法十分繁複精妙，時間及火侯都要拿捏的恰如其分，太過會極為澀苦，太淺卻又會失了甘韻，必須有長久的經驗積累，才能引導出其滋味的精髓，現在連方鎮裡也只有漪洀有這等手藝，而坎水第一次品嘗蓮心清露，便徹底喜歡上這種能洗淨心神的絕妙韻味。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxtpakcBMz
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRP4GpfXipe
「那老身還有一個不情之請，不知坎水姑娘可否接受？」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2v6qx5ppSI
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXvBYVaxec
漪洀說這番話的同時，他空寂的眼神像是注入了活水一般，變得炯炯有神的透亮，直直地凝視著坎水。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vpU5nkQ6f
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFdhKbMT1k
「漪洀先生，但說無妨，只要是我力所能及之事，我便不會拒絕。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tdignolma
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQLZDYE1GU
坎水微笑頷首，眉眼彎成柔和的弧度，蘊含彷彿能包容萬物的慈和，令漪洀更加確信坎水就是他長年以來所等待的那個人。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndCzhhM5hZ
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqArwyAbHSn
「其實啊，這事說起來也沒什麼。」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLD8ovw52lZ
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxV130S4wL
漪洀淡淡地說道，水閣外的潺潺雨聲也愈加清晰響亮。578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLNPDBGcBz
578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWZnGCO0CV
「老身在這家客棧裡，聆聽過無數行客遊子的故事，現在只是想請坎水姑娘，聽聽老身的故事罷了……」578Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QUBI1V3Fr
