翌日，少婦不畏山路辛勞地再次跋涉而下，卻沒有攜帶她重要而必要的藥箱，她只是為了看到──529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmoVhfAyzQ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwdOMK3jKp
為了親眼確認，那憑空消失的魔物到底是不是真實存在。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKb16uWI8Oe
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMBygj6FWh
穗作收割後所留下的田陌空地，似乎有什麼物體搖搖晃晃地伸展而出，將空氣攪成一團爛糊，定神一看，卻只是一陣風颺起。一片片的陰影在地面嬉鬧竄流，然而抬頭所見卻是秋高氣爽的天空……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwD9Dd9GSq
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBgpIfar0T
有許多聲音在低笑說著她聽不懂的語言，也聽不見，只覺得震耳欲聾。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OSvrxGdHJ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiZj82ryEy
小末所發現的『卵』再也沒有看見過，而她本人也無任何異常，只是偶爾會大呼小叫地瘋狂歡跳。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YMR4RAvF8
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyFoEEDDdT
這裡有許多東西，少婦強烈地感受到，卻也同等強烈地自認為是錯覺。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJr6COVa6ME
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXs4yeFapR
不該再想了……要當作沒見過那種生物……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrTiibF1Dr
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljlQHfCv23
自己已不再是過去的那個人了，所以，不應該再看到那種東西的。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3mgLWTISE
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Z6i4ksw0b
少婦強迫自己鎮定，終於，很快地這片山谷又恢復平日所熟悉的景象。她鬆了口氣，上前向村人問道：「小末呢？」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjBtbXUPuE
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvsGd3MC8s
村人愣了一下，「小末？是誰啊？」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51r3wNCMkq
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCYNxrEICy
「……就…大作家的么子…」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvcxn4zBnC
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0MM2A3Kv4
「大作啊…他不是只有三個兒子……而且他妻子已經……」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiJfgR6iMs
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68n0ATJsWo
村人的回答碎裂了支撐她思緒的細微意志，就這樣薄弱地摔落地面，把一切不屬於塵事的叫囂與陰影從地底喚醒，它們鑽入天際，歡樂地歌舞著。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8AFpdjGWT
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2k4rZ6t1iA
小末狂笑著從田埂的另一方跑了過來，繞了少婦一圈，又叫嘯著奔到另一頭去。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFicWTc5NR8
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGzKMwBT1X
「那不就是小末嗎？」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtYi3kbpOL
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAUTxe9AY8
「是啊，是小末啊。」村人毫無猶疑地回答。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbHuAUBK1q
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9BecNpsdR
他們對於異象完全無所覺，順其自然地成了異象的一部份，只有自己……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9Ci6n4KUh
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBTrBe40nn
她潰敗地逃回山林。秋葉紛落、草木枯黃，山林內依舊祥靜如夢醒，即使回頭俯望底下的山谷，也只是普通的村落聚居，沒有任何不安。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CB44752W5
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrYqBOEvpD
方才的事也不像是親身所經歷。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIME1HHChfo
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iUcYCV0eN
回到自家小屋中，也就早已遺忘了所有的夢魘。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNfcgbCdDJ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6omYQU5n3A
現今的生活還是如同她所冀求的一般，心中也十分平靜。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEp8egpIWT2
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jfw3BdQA8
然後，熟稔地開始檢選藥材，有些烹煮、有些磨成膏粉，她還得治療一隻受傷的大白貓呢。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoETiiLBGZ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0m9NVGrrr
大白貓的男人在白天絕不出門，一到晚上便會鑽入暗林裡獵補山禽野獸。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oQkmbXQb6
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXDrTelEiW
他中毒極深，除非是真正對藥與毒有專精如己的人，否則任是得到了如何珍貴的藥材也將束手無策。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHMXBuOSGC
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55TGsaFbaq
僅管那隻大白貓一雙血瞳是如何兇暴孤僻，最後還是得乖乖地在自己面前把一整帖苦藥給乖乖全數吞下，抱怨不得半聲。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhcJA0K2MM
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wrhINJsuF
少婦獨自沉靜地坐在幽暗的小屋內，耐心地等待爐燄慢慢將藥湯熬煮得濃燙，以及狩獵完回來得喝下這壺湯藥的大白貓。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z6hLRvvMU
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCV134Rc7kW
隔了兩日之後，少婦再次背起藥箱走下山頭，然後，一如過往為村民治病與傾聽他們的交談。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjFpDJoqXi
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgREj1amL1
沒有什麼異樣，也不再有魔物出現。甚至原本該注意小末的事都不復記憶。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wfuqfLhou
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1okV1K1Hl
入秋了，晚風開始吹得冰涼，而西落的日光也更是紅得耀眼，農收的男人皮膚被染出一層通紅。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2f5hOojl4
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SRjJe2hjk
穀子被堆在空地上曝塞，入夜前又得忙著收拾在穀缸內。女人們紛紛拿出禦寒的衣物來縫補，小孩子被吩咐要在臨近的林地收集好可以添火的枯枝。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7URgxwJDW
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu39Ih3evtD
少婦則拿出一些藥材分贈村人，加入烹煮的食物裡食用能抵禦冬冷的寒氣。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMDAxKxN1B
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3GVYSt6SO
為了明日的存活與生計又再不停地忙錄著，這是身為人類在大地上極其自然的行為。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYYQz7bmI1
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUN0Mjpshnc
再自然不過，就這樣一直活下去……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNN6gDXWxqL
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡin2FgSzI6M
走在山路上，少婦忽然有些依依不捨地回頭，並不怎麼稀奇的天空與雲、與山、與谷、與溪、以及那不起眼的普通村落，都讓人產生矇矓的眷戀。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaJAxCw3sF
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJj1efDRng
或許是有生之年，心中第一次有盈滿的感覺。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDw5IbUSDM
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOCK965vX8
別過頭，滿山的秋肅氣氳雖然冰涼，卻溫柔地輕拂過萬物。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMBgTeVpXk
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAIRwLIGiZ
心中的陰影也彷彿要漸漸被帶走般……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKh99P1bLxe
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8Pb57FmtI
「怎麼了？妳要忘了我嗎？」快要被遺忘的臉孔，拖著綿長的身體乘風而來，她模仿著輕風的溫柔，用眾多手臂裡最前端的一雙取下了少婦的帽紗，「妳正在呼喚著黑闇喔……」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtilwWIKxl2
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTJL0cKynY
少婦看著那微笑的雙瞳與嘴角，呆愣地像是置身夢境之中。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMO8ebfQ1r
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeWoy6A9zV
一直藏匿的臉孔被揭了開來，她的面容一如多年以前姣好而年輕，即使歲月與人事在眼神裡添加了風霜，也只被深藏於黑瞳深處……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvd2vyoOqUk
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMQjBHHZDI
那個曾經是被小末所發現的『卵』、被少婦所喚作『神』的魔物，像是滿意少婦的臉孔而吃吃地天真笑起，「小末的靈魂應該很鮮美吧，對不對？…不過那個沒有辦法拿走，所以…妳的給我……」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5fiDiMe9L
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6ayxtaVup
秋風掃起了滿山紅黃枯葉，也捲起了塵埃，優雅得如同日常一般。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUH1vGzKp40
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpi92uj7geu
被捉走的，只有她自己而已……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGWzm2ODVl
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmfTMfDkks
「…櫻姬…」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0Ly7GX1S3
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTEInqVXyI
當神魔喚出自己的真名時，陳封的記憶也將被打散，如同落葉般地漫天紛飛……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqnAWzedb0
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMU8iYTkJ7
不知在何處的小末，帶著滿足的笑容蜷曲身體，無數隻蟲蛆忙碌地在她身旁蠕動吐絲、用繭做成了與世隔絕的球殼，於是小末就在殼裡逐漸回溯到她還是小嬰兒的年紀，從腳尖開始一點一滴地退化縮小，成了吐絲造繭的蟲蛆形態，當她完全消失時，薄殼破裂開來，腐土伸出一雙死槁但充滿母愛的手指，把它帶回地底。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ett4hqE4z
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUN0mzgJsrM
……自己也化成了一縷輕煙，灑脫地在晴空裡飛散成虛無……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNZs4bFi3u
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdJOyNK7xO
無數蟲蛆辛勤地鑽入山道鬆軟土壤，沿路栽植出比花瓣斑斕的彩蛹，它們像是葉片一樣舒捲開來，從中伸出了數支芽臂，頂端密集的頭顱們齊聲地唱著似曾相似的歌謠。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHw8HLlcggM
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUB9ygIc2b
拖曳著贅長羽毛、與葉片同樣嬌小的鳥兒在芽臂與葉片間輕靈地鑽竄，長在鳥腹上以翼作手的小人用爪子抓起唱歌的頭顱飛翔，於是每一顆頭顱都開始尋求自己的軀體，在落到地面時都具有各自喜歡的模樣，骨肉血脈尋求自由地掙脫既定的形體拘束，像是飛禽也像走獸、同時是飛禽走獸都不會有的形態。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYTFlEBBFo
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp94sND0j98
祂們的形體就是祂們的意志。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUZw3P4T2t
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo52NSAJqnH
整座樹林也是有著自由意志的活物，正愉快地向上伸展枝椏，佔據了整片蒼穹。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF95mrRtp0l
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcqMmwDznS
數不清的赤紅眼睛在黑暗密林裡燿燿燃起……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1U5v1oT42
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKD0b2S8ie
片刻的瞬間，魔物們就驅走了時光的存在。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeobhlNaqnJ

……好靜謐啊……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFaZcj3JE4
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RPCbAGtbQ
這裡是溫暖又靜謐的黑暗世界，是永遠沉睡之處……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SbKWMdXbg
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbexknrcAE5
就在這裡沉睡吧，陷入深深的睡眠，連夢境都無法叨擾。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiNRXEfFSs
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8UjRUcYWM
……永不清醒……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZA8ooh6QJ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNB3SMfwZo
只要在自己的小屋內，靜靜地等著爐火熬藥，心裡就會安心。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSflVXkV4nU
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgT4bpkCXy8
苦蘿根、芍香等易生常見的藥用植物，由毒蛇糞土裡生長的劍藤才真正具有解毒功能，而難以栽種的七葉蘭在此地從六葉甚至九葉都有，麻雀花是人畜皆懼的毒物，卻也是治療絕症的極效品……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3tVEokJSa
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0vZPBLy4t
一個又一個地細數著所有的藥材，終於連自己心底的喧噪聲音也不再聽聞。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgCHoO8GhM
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ry8C8b9wA
其餘事物都毫無義意。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkpwfzMzsu
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4KKvH7L2u
但是受傷的大白貓卻撬開門扉，他中毒極深，除非是真正對藥與毒有專精如己的人，否則任是得到了如何珍貴的藥材也將束手無策……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2b64XgGmPA

529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMOJ0vAgEM
大白貓敏捷而有力的爪子撕裂魔物們攀上櫻姬的觸手，魔物們不怒反笑地顫動著，他只得用比任何魔物更加血腥的赤瞳來斥退祂們。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0Fz7DgO4L
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZYkVhoc5e
野獸般的哮吼刺耳刮骨，黑暗世界變得既破碎又褪色，魔物們大笑，像是妥協地讓出光影與時間，而後鼠竄地一哄而散。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffffTBS9iK
