四面楚歌，八千楚兵潛逃離營。漢軍未敢鬆懈，先遣三漢潛入楚營察看情況。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3aJNhkrnw
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUMzmZO11u
楚兵潰不成軍，何解前方幃帳仍有歌聲舞影？其中一名大漢在帳外窺視。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTv9GUKc4w
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPCjfMasw0
西楚霸王項羽愁眉苦臉，握劍獨酌，如癡如醉細賞絕色虞姬曼妙舞姿。烏髮飄飄，白袖翩翩。旋身扭腰，舉手投足，每一動作柔中帶勁，勁度適中，不慍不火，將上乘內功完美融入舞步當中。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFpfKb5Noj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXLmusndLL
大漢恍然大悟——難怪每次項羽總能在絕境死局中殺出重圍，原來有虞姬暗中幫忙。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVIVKTw6lc
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBFRlzCGkx
「帳外的壯士，賞面把酒言歡嗎？」項羽沒待大漢回答，逕自舉壼酙滿酒杯。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQCePGQpxV
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS74iF9K5Tw
大漢嚇得僵住，不懂進退。項羽明白大漢擔憂，大手一揚，隨手將寶劍扔向幃帳一隅。虞姬順勢一跳一躍，伸手接下快要著地的寶劍，動作俐落得彷彿接劍一幕原本就是舞步的一部份。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroJDPHriKy
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2Yu6yl7tb
「大王，何必呢？」虞姬謙恭欠身雙手奉上寶劍。雖是女兒身，卻深明隨身武器好比武者的尊嚴，何況是心高氣傲的項羽！264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Tp8EnDTmK
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4zaArwVJu
「隨緣吧。」項羽無視寶劍，苦笑續杯。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB2sxLq6tB
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCeOi7PbrS
虞姬目光一轉，熱情招呼大漢入帳共飲。大漢自問沒有全身而退的可能，只得應邀入帳。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpR03RXC0yJ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXU5QD1I4S9
帳內，氣氛怪異。大漢正襟危坐，不敢沾酒半滴，項羽、虞姬閒話家常，從容自若。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxALVzqaTcN
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6x4y0IWZEm
戰場上有可能存在不帶考慮的邀約嗎？大漢不相信項羽會如此輕率隨性。素聞項羽城府甚深，沒可能從他口中探聽消息。他有意無意打量虞姬——情根深種的女人最容易露出破綻……264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTPQrTGuNM
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBXXo9vwq6
舞盡，大漢鼓掌。項羽眉頭稍鬆：「無論是何方人士，都會喜歡虞姬的舞步。」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtOMNTzaaP
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKzZLj8wTp
「謝大王誇獎。」虞姬喜上眉梢，全然不沾國破家亡的陰霾。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaafqjvkYa
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZyMn923Em
「相信虞姬將來定會嫁個好夫君。」項羽於心有愧，不敢正視虞姬，目光停留在杯中酒水的微顫倒影之上。「希望壯士日後能為虞姬說句好話。」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wOLlugUXj
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1U34znpFIp
項羽語帶雙關，表面為虞姬作媒，實為請求大漢在劉邦面前為虞姬求情。此話出乎眾人意料，不單是大漢，連虞姬亦大為震驚。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cCkwZpiDH
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DzOKLiYLB
「你想……投……」大漢不敢置信，衝口而出直道心裡疑問。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazvvp4kpgi
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryxkdr2iH2
「對大王要用尊稱！」虞姬盛怒，從衣袖抽出佩劍，瞄準大漢喉頭直刺。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLuSgUU2Ne
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJodHPbdE9
大漢從席中彈起，順勢右手一撥，酒杯應勁飛彈向虞姬秀臉。虞姬及時欠身避過，全身白衣不沾滴酒，惟錯失刺殺良機。眼見大漢距出入口僅餘幾步之遙，虞姬情急擲劍飛擊。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamzFuRhFd5
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF62FlTfjZg
電光火石之間，項羽扔杯撞開虞姬的佩劍，救下大漢一命，輕嘆：「虞姬，無謂執著。」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlDE3dYtm8
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrRVBNONB7
虞姬正要開口回話之時，項羽離座把玩閒置在帳中一隅的五弦琴。誰料弦線忽斷，在項羽手腕劃下一道血痕。虞姬連忙上前為項羽治理傷口。來回忙碌的玉手忽爾凝住——不屬於她的溫熱淚水滴落她的手背上，既輕且重。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsA0LSlhkLD
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTlCICvqo1
「力拔山兮氣蓋世。時不利兮騅不逝。騅不逝兮可奈何！虞兮虞兮奈若何！」身經百戰的項羽不堪壓力，心防竟被斷弦劃破，淚流不止。他不是天選之人，即便再優秀、再努力亦無法成為王者。甘心嗎？不甘心又如何？根本無能為力。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYhNNNgg3v
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ny38hulOx
虞姬攙扶項羽回座，勉力擠出笑容，誠懇恭敬向大漢道歉：「壯士，請饒恕小女子無禮。希望閣下大人有大量，繼續留帳享用美酒。」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtokpKMBdkp
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIHDuGCkBd
夜正深，月正圓，項羽、虞姬這對苦命鴛鴦已一腳踏入鬼門關，大漢不禁為二人暗暗惋歎。靈光一閃，大漢決定為二人帶來最後一點快樂回憶：「恭敬不如從命。」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDp3S8YM9kd
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS087SuvGcb
大漢走向僅餘四弦的琴，即席譜曲彈奏。曲調先是激昂悠揚，繼而沉鬱悲壯，似是描述項羽的事蹟。更妙的是，曲末幾句的音調剛好適合套在項羽悉才有感而發唸出的四句詩作。「這是在下獻給大王的曲子！」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW78xC05slf
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlQl0pAzds
「好！妙極！」項羽破涕為笑，擊節讚賞。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMncsVKCnO
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU93aV9CPfM
虞姬感動又感激，帶淚微笑向大漢點頭致意。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRuuWbYneC
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKUQ1C8gIU
大漢再次奏曲，虞姬隨曲執劍起舞，項羽興致大發：「力拔山兮氣蓋世。時不利兮騅不逝。騅不逝兮可奈何！虞兮虞兮奈若何！」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWL66it6lR
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNACpenGC5c
曲盡，舞未停。虞姬邊舞邊清唱：「漢兵已略地，四面楚歌聲。」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7e2hiqr6m
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiT9DhBwJ6o
半醉的項羽聽出話中的話，驀地抬頭望向虞姬，只見她一個旋身將劍刃架在頸上。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0TqztwCe3
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClhSo7pce8
「大王意氣盡，賤妾何聊生。」劍光匆匆，雪白細頸添了一絲鮮紅。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1bAGF0NSn
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsaq9Y13DX
虞姬倒地無聲，項羽不聲不吭，將杯中美酒一飲而盡，拾劍離帳。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1usGdOQLQ
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdUvmxup55
怎會不愛？怎會不痛？奈何再多的愛亦改變不了事實——虞姬自刎就是因為項羽認命，就是因為他任由絕望在心裡張牙舞爪！虞姬用自己的寶貴生命提醒項羽，該要時刻緊記作為男人的尊嚴和承擔！項羽暗暗起誓，絕不再次辜負她的厚望，誓必奮戰至最後一刻！264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDjDRkllvB
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTibO75NxC
「朕的子民，跟朕殺出重圍！」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4e8PbVSAg1
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAy9yP4PkQe
楚軍重新列陣佈防期間，項羽回到帳內，發現大漢未有逃去，依然愣立原地。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kHzFu9Jie
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pRxOvewtX
「壯士不需要回去覆命嗎？」項羽神情輕鬆，沒有顯露任何亡國喪妻之痛。264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSDCUdjpFB
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZjGHKTOxo
「我不打算回去……」大漢仍被虞姬的剛烈與情深所憾動。他憶起劉邦縱然滿嘴仁義道德，卻屢次於身陷困境時拋棄妻兒和部下獨自逃走。他的虛偽與項羽、虞姬的真性情根本無可比擬。「希望大王能將我收歸麾下。」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmF1Qlka3qc
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBCzhoUP5C
緊接的一戰定必九死一生。雖是萍水相逢，項羽卻不希望大漢一同赴死。想及大漢乃性情中人，願為知音赴湯蹈火，項羽心生一計，既可保大漢一命，亦可了卻自己心願：「好！朕命你帶虞姬遺體回鄉安葬！」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9idSAtyWAh
264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYkLojVXUX
「大王！」大漢受寵若驚，下跪叩首：「在下定必不負聖望！」264Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3Rp07UlZ6
