Sally從櫈落地,走過小妺妺背後,向我遞上紙巾,我接過來抹手,Sally就開始掃我背脊。234Please respect copyright.PENANAtzxbpmiXZp
234Please respect copyright.PENANARMqf2Ds4ke
「點解會哽親,咁論盡架咩?好大粒蟹和尚喎!」又開始找錯處了,她最愛每件事都捉壞人。234Please respect copyright.PENANATaiROSKBEG
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFvtfWT1KzE
我覺得喉嚨劇痛,實在沒好氣答她,生理上如是,心裡面如是。234Please respect copyright.PENANAujW5TQF5Xj
234Please respect copyright.PENANA13SCJIBIvk
「好彩我勸返蟹哥哥出黎咋!」小妺妺出口攞埋尾彩。234Please respect copyright.PENANACAL5XVC15w
234Please respect copyright.PENANANScfC7KzOz
「如果唔係會點?」Sally追問。234Please respect copyright.PENANAdYxqmY21Pw
234Please respect copyright.PENANA9d4pOdQUnR
「會食哂你啲腸!魚師幫眾生兵解,骨肉散盡,元神就會化形成為花蟲鳥魚等等形相,第一個典故入面就係變蓮花,而白龍就變成螃蟹,魚師再將形相入菜,煮比其他人食,元神就可以係口腹之中重塑肉身。蟹哥哥本身就係蛟龍,入到你肚仲唔咬到你腸穿肚爛咩!」234Please respect copyright.PENANAEtQYhWGFcJ
234Please respect copyright.PENANA0ibawYIGF2
「有無咁恐怖!」Sally的反應很大。234Please respect copyright.PENANAL5Jk8smeqI
234Please respect copyright.PENANAIEi9y24SJ2
小妺妺的話我不知應否全信,但至少也得信邪,不信邪我現在就不會坐在這裡了。234Please respect copyright.PENANAxONGNTx9u1
234Please respect copyright.PENANAyZc1Lh6pPz
至於Sally,我說過她迷信。234Please respect copyright.PENANAXtNfiiKoqc
234Please respect copyright.PENANACLL5mipyuY
「其實我食到有啲驚,不如我地埋單先?」她又轉而向小妺妺講:「搞到咁唔好意思,如果你已經準備咗野食,我地俾埋全數吖!」234Please respect copyright.PENANA9fjXM91dzD
234Please respect copyright.PENANAmDJHhJpma4
小妺妹與師傅一個對望,又向Sally點點頭:「唔緊要!我地舖頭都唔好意思啦,唔會收你地錢!」234Please respect copyright.PENANAYFQFbLhxYf
234Please respect copyright.PENANAveLeLPfjf9
我開口:「唔洗埋單,我抖抖就可以再食,最多請你地遲啲再上菜。」234Please respect copyright.PENANAcwnFtaOS2R
234Please respect copyright.PENANAGkLgTpDJtq
「吓,但要咁堅持咩?」234Please respect copyright.PENANACAqdIrjdyd
234Please respect copyright.PENANAiHRCttiUgs
「我想食,陪我食到最後。」我語氣堅決。234Please respect copyright.PENANA1FN7OiAenL
234Please respect copyright.PENANAbhdHbKiwvP
Sally有點發嬲,掃我背脊的手一個彈開,坐回自己位置,開始飲今晚第一啖綠茶:「成日咁硬頸,我唔知你!」234Please respect copyright.PENANAxyYivSS5zp
234Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0YBUSePd4
小妺妺不怕氣氛緊張,合上菜譜在先,再說道:「埋唔埋單你地慢慢諗,既然唔急上菜我就食晚飯先。」234Please respect copyright.PENANAH0Hij1PWqA
234Please respect copyright.PENANAk35kbx5esv
Sally幾啖飲完一杯茶,又從熱水喉斟滿一杯水,打開裝抹茶粉的自助木罐起勢潷粉落杯。234Please respect copyright.PENANAfHf3DuGWDd
234Please respect copyright.PENANAKMcf8z8IoE
「長庚⋯⋯長庚⋯⋯」小妺妺兩手拱在嘴前做一個大聲公形狀,用撒嬌的語氣呼喚著,「我想食香魚!」234Please respect copyright.PENANAXRiE6Xk04w
234Please respect copyright.PENANA0q5G8Ft7HV
師傅沒有點頭,沒有回應,眼尾望了望小妺妹一下。234Please respect copyright.PENANAAHBcLiCcK5
234Please respect copyright.PENANAK1qcJ3Mxkl
我心寒,望向Sally。234Please respect copyright.PENANAz9GNVP1O1n
234Please respect copyright.PENANAbG10lDhVFT
她專心吹涼滾水,兩眼就被水氣焗得越來越紅,見她一聲不哼,我又覺心煩勝過心驚。234Please respect copyright.PENANAQKP322bHI8
234Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZcLTNCxDr
這時師傅揭起他身後角落一塊蓋在架生上面的黑布,布下傳來攪動水花的聲音,到師傅把布收好,我才得見被蓋住的是幾個白漆鐵盤,因為幾個盤身都與我水平高度,我只聞水聲,見不到盤中是甚麼在翻騰。234Please respect copyright.PENANAFApx4i5TZe
234Please respect copyright.PENANATJB8Y4EZqP
我從後側邊見到師傅把食指伸出舉到下巴高度,大概是在對魚豎手指。234Please respect copyright.PENANAHqq0B2G98I
234Please respect copyright.PENANAOyWTjbJyTM
盤中物十分聽話,水靜一時。234Please respect copyright.PENANAbLxIDfUXSu
234Please respect copyright.PENANAKPDoDqngP2
突然「噗通」一聲,師傅伸手入其中一個盤,抓出六條黃鰭黑背,白肚紅側的魚仔,再用另一隻手逐一將魚放置在我們前方的竹砧板上,雖然壽司吧檯的頂部有高度阻隔,但只要我坐直腰骨,仍能輕易見到六條魚仔頭尾全部,一間一間,整齊直躺在砧板表面,完全不見抽搐彈跳。234Please respect copyright.PENANApepUpwdQqS
234Please respect copyright.PENANAEyUfGEzZde
要不是魚嘴開開合合,我還以為魚是死的。234Please respect copyright.PENANA2FE62B7vm9
234Please respect copyright.PENANAppauxDLCo0
這時師傅轉個身,手拿竹籤一支,把魚仔的一邊眼逐粒篤穿。234Please respect copyright.PENANAJrgVUaTy4F
234Please respect copyright.PENANAJj5haytxoQ
「點解師傅要咁做?」Sally放下茶杯,望住個真,她未重新開聲,所以講話時有點沙啞。234Please respect copyright.PENANApCBJY26LoW
234Please respect copyright.PENANAWi34lHdI3B
「一陣燒香魚果時,呢邊眼睛會向內望到自己身體,拮穿咗唔洗嚇親,咁就唔會痛。」234Please respect copyright.PENANAPTM2BC2MIE
234Please respect copyright.PENANArmw9X8s3XH
甚麼道理。234Please respect copyright.PENANAPJb8mWOkjA
234Please respect copyright.PENANAQpZrIfMXV8
「你講到似層層,魚師究竟係咪真?」我忍不住問,隨即又覺得講錯野,如果小妺妺質疑我唔信又點解要返來,我就自己攞嚟衰了。234Please respect copyright.PENANAG1iKkk3Qts
234Please respect copyright.PENANADcbt7pwy3d
「當然真!好多時俗家人見到魚師,唔知同神仙有乜分別,就起廟供奉,香港都有漁民拜天后娘娘啦!」
234Please respect copyright.PENANAU5OzIrayAf
「天后都係魚師?有啲格硬黎喎!」她沒有說破,我放了個心,不小心又得意忘形。234Please respect copyright.PENANAVJWr2uPsAU
234Please respect copyright.PENANAVniCVxO24Z
「咁直頭叫魚師廟嘅話無得格硬啦掛?象山、大陳同宜蘭都有魚師廟!」234Please respect copyright.PENANARyWIXUJ66v
234Please respect copyright.PENANALNlEP5wfsd
「係咪台灣嗰個宜蘭?但象山、大陳又係邊?」234Please respect copyright.PENANATWHMBNcrA5
234Please respect copyright.PENANAFAAJd5I45y
「象山大陳都係浙江,大陳拜張志和,象山拜嘅其實係長庚,不過象山人都未必知,佢地叫長庚做魚師大帝。長庚係果度解過一條鯨魚我食,村民後來用剩返的骨頭起咗一座魚師廟。」小妺妺兩手托臉,凝望住師傅,笑得甜蜜:「而同一屋簷下,仲有一尊女菩薩叫魚師娘娘。」234Please respect copyright.PENANAMHIp7W8v9D
234Please respect copyright.PENANAl4m8YqSeDz
師傅又望了小妺妺一眼,然後回頭取多幾支竹籤。234Please respect copyright.PENANAAi2Cg82KWL
234Please respect copyright.PENANAYHTXDeVZNp
這時師傅拿起一條香魚,從無壞的一側魚眼底把竹籤伸入,在同一側的身體穿出一次,再刺入,最後在同一側的魚尾將籤刺出,在籤頭撐穿魚皮之時,我見尖尖插住一個黃色小球,似乎是魚的某種內臟。234Please respect copyright.PENANA52TXJGbbro
234Please respect copyright.PENANALwsFjHj0Rm
我看著覺得痛,不禁「嘶」了一聲,好像是自己被拮穿了。234Please respect copyright.PENANAiebpBJfiVj
234Please respect copyright.PENANAYDrEhS0iTb
「唔會痛架喎,魚師係入籤時從魚眼底穿過,出入嘅地方都係魚身體嘅天然竅孔,魚望唔到嘅話根本無感覺。」234Please respect copyright.PENANArOmDjIJmOJ
234Please respect copyright.PENANAA6FIHtA0UP
我看住六條香魚乖乖被貫穿,每次最後都從裡面篤出一粒黃色器官來,雖然過程無血流出,但點會唔痛。234Please respect copyright.PENANAACqfKd6NSo
234Please respect copyright.PENANARdFKmWyuq7
魚嘴如常開合,然後就咁被放在一個燒烤爐架上,師傳扭開煤氣掣,兩排赤紅熱浪就吞沒了魚。234Please respect copyright.PENANAz4Ru4TCnV8
234Please respect copyright.PENANAC4VRz0NjN8
「竹簽串入去魚都唔痛,咁監生火燒痛啦掛?」Sally問中我心裡質疑。234Please respect copyright.PENANAKLLZP3VwSA
234Please respect copyright.PENANA6FJbvF8kew
「都唔痛架!頭先師傅幫咗香魚兵解,元神都唔係度,得個軀殼係唔會有痛苦!」小妺妺講到煞有其事。234Please respect copyright.PENANAawnJXoJgkd
234Please respect copyright.PENANA0PQd9NiOj1
沒多久香魚燒好,師傅在長碟上撒上鹽粒,再將魚仔條條排好,遞到小妺妹面前。234Please respect copyright.PENANAu67tggiGLB
234Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9JK1W56oi
香魚香魚,明明是魚,卻有青瓜香氣。魚身曲住串燒,就曲住上碟,魚嘴張開,好像未死,浮在碟上游水一樣。234Please respect copyright.PENANAs7Ff9NE9bp
234Please respect copyright.PENANA3at7ZZ5gwL
這時師傅從他頭頂懸空的架上取下一支生酒,打開樽蓋,把剛才六粒從魚體內篤出來的黃色物體丟入樽中,我看著黃物在透明美酒中展開,經過玻璃的折射,再在我眼裡現出真身。234Please respect copyright.PENANAPPA7MppSsP
234Please respect copyright.PENANA33p23MT5BI
那是六盞金黃胎菊。我的腦海亂七八糟。234Please respect copyright.PENANA3WkrR21q13
234Please respect copyright.PENANAfpIImc2N7E
魚師幫眾生兵解,骨肉散盡,元神就會化形成為花蟲鳥魚等等形相⋯⋯234Please respect copyright.PENANA5s1damEZR2
234Please respect copyright.PENANARuIdOnE8kk
小妺妺用筷子夾起一條香魚,直接咬開魚頭,擠得一嘴香油,又斷斷續續地說話了:「以前魚師係河邊生火釣魚,用直針代替鈎,魚會自己將身體撲上針,求魚師幫自己火解。」234Please respect copyright.PENANARDIjt2WfIm
234Please respect copyright.PENANAiDGrce5azm
「能被魚師分解烹煮,係一種運氣。」234Please respect copyright.PENANAs4SnFm3OIs
234Please respect copyright.PENANAhAzZqcb6t3
「能夠被食,係一種福份。」234Please respect copyright.PENANASW9OpGEBRu
