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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhwX7uM1nU
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KwCPtAkzR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UF7S6Vs2s
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJdk4yOoVH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQw3Mh4Rof
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3tBOakSbd
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBsLjJhUb6
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jnCK9vsBr
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17MHSQXT3a
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEbOXt6Lwc
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhngEH51Zoe
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwTm6geKxA
不該再想了……要當作沒見過那種生物……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAcGkhZj8r
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapqYZ2zFHp
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmN0mLYIfxM
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkZy82vGVN
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJPvf5JjoX
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzD2C5uk7X9
村人愣了一下，「小末？是誰啊？」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1DvyfklJm
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrCIU1QuBJ
「……就…大作家的么子…」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaSkmYDlIw
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjJGieGJha
「大作啊…他不是只有三個兒子……而且他妻子已經……」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWiLooiaS0
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElGnxZHF6b
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4tnBjTOVV
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8OGVsPuXk
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pkARLBPcO
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44l0d64j5F
「那不就是小末嗎？」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8yilInaAv
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EO2md4gvA
「是啊，是小末啊。」村人毫無猶疑地回答。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzMU0lKVEB
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVZjLX0FUP
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIp9ca0A3d
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2hF2J3TZf
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22yxWZ4PSL
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76NN9KOMjM
方才的事也不像是親身所經歷。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpm4yTnJIh
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvUebgXmGK
回到自家小屋中，也就早已遺忘了所有的夢魘。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaKq97G0SJ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzVGkZTuEa
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35B1l3Ja4x
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggu1N6BIpP
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvLR1pcS2K
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zrHXsQsvI
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGSoA3sDnf
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym0kmeiJ4m
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhyFr3YCnd
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlKT3BZiu0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLP0bDWpXZ6
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFr25KnZvar
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQr0urG0a5
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3CEOttr4n
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlig5EVZ41Y
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMO4oQuXl3b
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLPMPPtcVw
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXuuHBOt4G
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qXLXNGweS
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYkXZZYUYD
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbRjaCEMBv
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZ1508zzsr
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4BeGoYB6l
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVKJC343i0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06fwrrdu9i
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOmYuCMJNu
再自然不過，就這樣一直活下去……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQ5t9M2Mol
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5vcXJYI6M
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizJ9naNcM3
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasNSWxh5IA
或許是有生之年，心中第一次有盈滿的感覺。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuUSosXO6O
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNI9goUNRb
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ97CxXO8WU
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SJs4hCmtK
心中的陰影也彷彿要漸漸被帶走般……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ675GyvzqHV
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡko4XZ73jtE
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu13ofSkeyt
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZKvLvooiQ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncOBMOfs2F
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmllQfBEhOT
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCV5X5YZJu
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVO2saLAfpS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDOlLHj3ie
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yKX4O73vR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGp6Ipfmtv
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRUXeSiuzv
被捉走的，只有她自己而已……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzW0YubWdot
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3g7oCPTpZ7
「…櫻姬…」529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5UDtkLVmW
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3YtvXl2sg
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuAlXRPBbd
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZlg56p5e7
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoIlvVMQeo
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMscHPcEM9
……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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEUSRHPcs6
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk96M3ZUYB6
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCiTdg4JTy
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyUWzrUsoI
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGAgEgw2Wt
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtpcxdjXUg
祂們的形體就是祂們的意志。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmYspbacrG
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHjfZZ2hve
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmT39wdCHqk
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjeEu7yU3j
數不清的赤紅眼睛在黑暗密林裡燿燿燃起……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzwMK6JV92
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQku9aV7Fjl
片刻的瞬間，魔物們就驅走了時光的存在。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWohSk5gsm

529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bVcXrTQ9x
這裡是溫暖又靜謐的黑暗世界，是永遠沉睡之處……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsD8jlb9vY
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9cXUpqQpE
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHITxyfOAM
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGg9BeVWli
……永不清醒……529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXC73PW8CJ
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAwbPOlU2K
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44uM1e5ote
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVG6ZyUeYJe
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfzhCjI7Yy
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHh1Ww8omY
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4cgCZgDzU
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfLjJl0lz5
其餘事物都毫無義意。529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaU0qAq0va
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXgiipgTKS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTm8HxaoPLv

529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SvNw1BLZB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMswhjXc71Z
529Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjziuAUGCzw
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmyVSMl18m
