經過盛夏烈火般的悶燒，秋天的太陽就著夏日殘留的餘溫，將青綠的草木烘烤成溫暖的橘黃色。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjwHkwK6uV

林子裡，群樹下厚實的土壤開始鬆動。秋蟬的幼蟲在地底下沉睡多年，終於擁有足夠的力氣，撥開眼前的碎土，攀上枯木的枝幹，征服昔日賴以維生的大樹。費盡千辛萬苦達成目標的成蟲，得意的在樹上高聲鳴唱，尾隨在後的幾隻同伴，亦大展歌喉加入行列。從激昂的獨唱到和諧的齊唱，爾後重唱的跟進再加上輪唱的鋪疊，層層交替，句句悠揚，為日漸蕭索的森林再添生氣。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKygQnz804Z

「咻－－砰！」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe13fE6kU0x
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo80hJt5BTu
倏地一聲驚動了樹上的每一隻蟬，喧鬧的蟬鳴驟然停止，只剩下綿細微弱的低吟。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUFvhlWygp
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOzuezDgmN
一支苦無毫不留情的在樹上劃下刻痕，並惡狠很的刺入樹心。一陣腳步聲由遠而近，顯然苦無的主人就要來取回自己的私物。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJSMPZM3I1

「沙沙！」遍地的枯葉脆弱易折，每踩即碎。現身的是一位貌約不過六歲的小男孩，黑髮上汗水淋漓，臉頰微微漲紅，嘴理不規律的喘氣。白嫩的手臂上滲著一絲鮮紅欲滴的血痕，前幾天的舊傷被新傷覆蓋，看來小傢伙投擲苦無的技巧還不到家呢！59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXJEhQ5D4Z
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDahFUGJ8x
「不夠！還不夠！」男孩走到大樹前，望著樹上的苦無不甘心的想著。回頭四顧，林蔭下的陰影又比剛才灰黯了一點，地上的落葉在光線照射下看來也暗紅許多。太陽快下山了，要加緊練習才行！心中催促著，男孩揮手抹去汗水，便向前要拔下苦無。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMonWKpLlka
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm37OODaNM
「索索……」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFl80b3ulX5
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBzgZ0VZgO
腳邊窸窸窣窣的聲音引起男孩的注意，他低頭一看，發現一隻急欲爬上樹幹，卻不斷滑落在樹根旁的成蟬。成蟬努力的揮舞六肢，掙扎著又挑戰幾次，反而栽了個跟斗，跌在草地上臥也不是、翻也不是。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnQ4dbWqb6
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qM85fagLI
看著遍體鱗傷仍勤奮不懈的成蟬，男孩停頓了一會，彎下身，想拾起成蟬把牠放到樹上，以助牠一臂之力。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8MCFq9EoT
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERA9Q5hBDi
「佐助，不要動牠。」手指還未碰著成蟬，身後即傳來制止的聲音。男孩回過頭尋找聲音的來源，視線落在距離自己不到五米的少年身上。臉上兩條深陷而沉穩的法令紋，背後梳著一束黑髮的少年，無疑是勤練苦無的男孩－－宇智波佐助最熟悉不過的兄弟－－宇智波鼬。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAk2PwBB2N
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkzsbb6lUu
「哥哥？」佐助問道。見弟弟認出自己，身為兄長的鼬溫柔的笑了。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhHGWqOyHC
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFA6Pc83G5
「今天怎麼這麼早就回來了？」佐助問道。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqndVhnzng
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeDFIQPtcO
「任務比預期的時間還要早完成，所以就回來了。」鼬走到佐助身旁問道：「你苦無練到一半偷懶了，竟然在這裡玩蟬？」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb3JofAWUm
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy6leBnQVq
佐助見自己被誤會，頗不高興的回道：「才沒有！我是看到牠一直掉下來，才想要幫牠！是牠自己太笨了！」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALPRrh20T5
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAnh6xuKNw
鼬當然知道佐助不會只顧玩樂而忘記修練，佐助為了追上他的背影有多麼努力，他比誰都清楚。他不過是看到弟弟認真的模樣，忍不住想逗弄一番罷了。誰知道佐助就是這麼可愛，隨便一鬧就上了當？59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQRlX1F4oz
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnFAHnwlyE
「佐助，」鼬說道：「不可以幫牠喔！」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpXRAGBqcL
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZL9g6YIytP
「為、為什麼？」佐助不解的問道。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDf2GAqQUL
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwoXlkDBj3
「這棵樹很高，對吧？」鼬抬起頭望著樹頂道。佐助見哥哥如此做，跟著仰起了稚氣的小臉。晶瑩的陽光穿透枝葉灑下，好在時間已經黃昏，不會覺得太過刺眼。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDvPE49CLd
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRiAJE7kbx
「不管是誰，在達到目標之前，一定有很長的路要走。過程中遇到的種種阻礙，必須要靠自己解決，才能有所成長。」鼬低頭看佐助道：「你不可以幫牠走喔！」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTYlDMiAKA
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMSR8hf5uP
佐助皺了皺眉，年幼的他還不是很懂。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3ot3SWOOD
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80JflUKsih
「你自己也是一樣，要增強實力只能靠你自己！」鼬邊笑道，邊慣性的伸出手指往佐助的額頭彈下去。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgATvi7utJ
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBltp70Lsil
「好痛喔！」佐助撫著發紅的額頭抱怨道。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DrgNtSjR7
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFC9nBaa3i
「回去吧！」鼬說。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKpD74f9Rb
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapldmvOe2R
「等、等一下啦！」佐助賴皮道：「你好不容易那麼早回來，教我新的手裏劍術嘛！」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kGsjLxOR1
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWzfyueE1y
「天要黑了，太晚回去會被罵喔！」鼬遞出手道：「走吧！」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZUqBFDGCJ
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WmPIG42j0
佐助噘著嘴，瞪著鼬的手掌好一陣子，才不情願的把手伸過去。鼬無奈的笑了笑，牽起佐助的手，回家。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kVZd8sFZm

天候在稍晚時轉涼，隔天便下起了清冷的雨。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKE9QsdG2D
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyGKWaV5bF
雨水打在窗玻璃上，淅瀝嘩啦的雨聲掩蓋了窗外的蟬聲。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwV4DtisXGA
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FgKUwRBwA
「那隻蟬會不會被雨水淹死啊？」佐助手扶著窗檯直往外瞧，一臉焦躁不安的表情。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xRQtq85xr
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8diugfngR
「牠不會有事的。」鼬邊閱讀手中的卷軸邊隨口敷衍道。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJkJnsAhaa
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVj7zVlrqW
「你怎麼知道？」佐助轉過頭問。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h7SZFEEzd
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGonwsD9qLx
「昆蟲的生命力沒有你想像中那麼藐小……」鼬放下卷軸對佐助說：「你這麼擔心牠啊？」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4c6lufDZXz
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIla9QjW6rI
「才、才不是……」佐助回過頭看向窗戶賭氣道：「我不知道啦！」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJ3aCVuAIr
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2bG3ws1Zf
佐助是真的不知道。說他完全不擔心那隻蟬，這樣講好像不完全對；就算他是真的很擔心，原因好像也不是出自於憐憫……他也不了解自己為什麼會這麼在意。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUaU6DnBgp
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2p1RXXVAh
看佐助懊惱到兩腮發紅的模樣，鼬繼續埋首書堆，嘴角勾著一抹笑。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHviVcMofkB

翌日清晨，雨停了。院內的植物帶著朝露，在太陽的照耀下格外清新閃亮。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuofF1d1vPS
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJOzT0Ec65
「嘩啦！」佐助穿著媽媽強迫他套上的黃色雨鞋，三兩步就踩過一個個小水漥，毫不在乎路面有多濕滑。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE09InqnBQf
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHNUUScFyY
「佐助，不要跑那麼快。」鼬徐徐跟在後頭，嘴巴上叮嚀道。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgith9o9iSR
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49ImsYlH2l
鼬的話並沒有產生效果，佐助因為心中莫名的期待反而越跑越快。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTU4JlkaZRv
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtZWnTvEvf
「刷！」衝進樹林裡，飛奔過的地方揚起小小一陣風，把腳邊的落葉掃了起來。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNEAph0nHx
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3Pf6ygg6Q
蟬聲在佐助耳邊迴繞著，佐助小小的心噗噗的越跳越急。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5vC6KoB9T
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡladOAp502d
「知了！知了！」突然間，一陣蟬鳴迫使佐助停下了腳步。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7pNo72KEI
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3gRQ2vI5k
為什麼會這樣呢？明明就都是蟬的叫聲啊！可是，總覺得這隻蟬的叫聲特別清澈嘹亮……59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZjnIcVDPP
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMas4x0Dr7X
「知了！知了！」蟬的每一聲唱鳴都徹底激盪佐助幼小的心靈。佐助站在原地，抬起頭往上一看……59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3s2yenyanc
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERvhp6mI4e
一隻成蟬牢抓著樹皮，穩穩的攀附在樹幹的高處自豪的鳴唱著。成蟬棲留的樹上，還留著苦無的劃痕。這一定就是前天那隻落魄的蟬啊……59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOxRJ2iUa0
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3WSd79Uku
當自己還在底下默默努力時，望著同伴高去的背影，心中是感到多麼無力呢？多麼想追上他們的背影，多麼想跟上他們的腳步？在悽楚的暗處含下無盡的辛酸，即使如此，不出頭的話還是會被漠視……59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOHKAU3r0z
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xCPgnzwXf
從一開始就不曾憐惜牠，從一開始就不曾悲憫牠。因為那不是上對下的一種感情，而是平等的、相知相惜的感受。昨天的那股情感原來並不是擔心，而是託付了一切給對方……強烈的體悟在佐助的心中留下深刻的痕跡，佐助終於知道這樣的心情是什麼，卻因為年紀太小而不懂得明說，只覺心中有股難以言喻的酸潮。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm89EFtYOpn
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbRAsIhWBN
當另一棵樹上的同伴傳來一聲吟唱，成蟬就快活的高鳴一句作為回覆。看到牠如此自由自在，佐助心中深深的感動著。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEa3PmQ8xD
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8DGFZdjct
鼬不知何時來到佐助身旁。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImkzNNGaS7
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKpY65CzdA
「哥哥……」佐助小聲喚道。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfzhvbMiWr
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtN2UMaDpPM
「什麼事？」鼬默不作聲一會，回道。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZC74CWsLN
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFEzy9nwxX
「蟬真的好厲害，他只靠自己就達成了夢想。可是……」佐助低頭喪氣道：「我卻只會依賴你。」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRv6f3gKjwi
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOiSvie3n3
自己一點都不堅強，自己的實力真的好弱……59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoPybnW6Nn
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDmo17TcTG
金風襲過，落英繽紛。大樹下，鼬輕嘆了口氣。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4WepurQSq
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFR4VfiHmj
「你在說什麼啊？」鼬輕撫佐助的頭，溫柔的笑道：「你是我弟弟，不依賴我還能依賴誰？而且……」他笑道：「你一直都很努力，不是嗎？」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0GEyiHGVx
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6KCjbTWbd
佐助抬起頭望著哥哥。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvd7rUWTPf
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1nINYTNqj
每一次，只有他的話能帶給自己勇氣……59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FCY6T8q1D
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4dUhfSS17
每一次，他都是這樣溫柔的原諒無知的自己……59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Uc527frfj
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTj5XEOHLV
伸出手，佐助輕扯鼬的衣袖。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHe13DTJCPV
59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJElUdMovy
「哥哥……」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyyLuR9MHA

「……謝謝你。」59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGEdgSBTkm

佐助粉嫩的臉上，出現了久違的笑容。59Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWG4PAbVA7y
