將目光轉回到威米堤身上，風提起劍，做出攻擊的姿勢，「接下來，該你了！」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGn6U8dO74
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofsWikr53G
威米堤驚恐地東張西望。身邊已經沒人可以阻擋風，偏偏離他較近的護衛全在外頭，想到這，臉色不自覺鐵青起來。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8GeGfkVbF
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyLKHfFmXn
突然，威米堤瞄到平台上的小男孩，一股念頭油然而生，既然橫豎都是死，不如就將計就計。隨即衝向前，並將藏在衣袖裡的小刀架在小男孩的頸脖上。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eqtzaogFW
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvMFPer47p
「把手上的劍丟掉！」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJY5HPhDYMd
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWArNWVb8B
風不語，只是冷冷地盯著他。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Qi8rHhUQP
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfR3mV484J
「如果你不想讓他死的話，就把劍丟到地上！」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWggranK4a
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3Al2OgpOV
緊握手中的劍，風心裡十分猶豫。倘若讓他逃出去救援，自己是無法對其他人下手。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTx4UHOubjQ
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMHhVxcBMV
據童年的記憶，這裡的衛兵跟奴隸絕大部分都是威米堤擄回來的。長相好的，不是被賣掉，要不就是留在城內當奴婢；體格好的，就指派為衛兵；至於瘦弱又長相不起眼的，就成為階下囚的奴隸。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRILZasZBPz
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCmd1ZmfXf
即使有血緣關係的親人，也會因為階級不同，過著天差地別的生活，倘若替對方求情，求情者與被求情者都會被威米堤無情殺害。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1W4nAN30x
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfkiObwF2U
「再不把劍放下，就別怪我不客氣…」威米堤往小男孩的脖子輕劃一刀，火紅的鮮血立刻流出。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzT66eelLl
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7EFZMiPxA
風緊咬著牙，握劍的力道在緊與鬆之間躊躇著。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHwkRcKJWX
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCE7Q5COm4K
現在到底該怎麼做才好…139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVol5ANTfTo
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTAF09344n
「放…」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVg6bHEZXSP
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9EBmPut64
小男孩猛然大喊，硬是壓過威米堤的聲音，「我跟他毫不相干，就算你殺了我，他也不會覺得怎樣。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJ8wB2arGR
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToDIXUZ8bI
「少囉唆！小心我殺了你。」威米堤凶狠地瞪著小男孩。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSMQ5nd0GC
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CpurNFvdy
小男孩幾度向風眨眼暗示，「你要逃－－最好趁現在，否則在你殺了我之後，他馬上就會就衝上來殺你。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzJo8clT6t
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLek52vmmK1
了解小男孩話中有話，風對他展露笑意，以表示了解。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXTlXd4Usf
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoA6Bk7poO
「你給我閉…」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WUtskdShC
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCd8sHHX7Wv
「沒錯！就算他“死掉”…也跟我無關。」風故意加重語氣，嚴肅的神情，再加上不夾任何情感的口吻，讓人有所畏懼。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMtLTBckGX
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1983PGSB6
「我真的要動手了！」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MTNogaYno
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJXflwjvcy
「儘管動手。」風小心翼翼地一步一步逼近威米堤。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2i1ZsBYZLV
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMOs2YLIZm
「你不要過來！否則我真的殺了他！」威米堤慌了，舉起小刀往風的方向亂揮亂砍。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAjV8n6L3h
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl69oRhCmxJ
風不理會他的話，故作冷漠的態度。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwLcFWK5l1
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFbWI5gXjq
「不…不要過來…不要…」看到風不為所動，威米堤害怕地不斷斥退。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfHZySZvNV
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSOU6RBj7J
風不斷往前進，逼得威米堤一腳跨出平台外，底下的猛獸吼叫聲隨之傳來。眼看機不可失，小男孩猛然咬住威米堤的手。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljn6x8eeCx
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuuO3iQFiU
「痛…啊－－」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JwUxQIyRL
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPIodsbaBj
被這一咬，威米堤一個重心不穩，整個人跌落直下。掉落的同時，幾隻猛獸早已爭先恐後地張大嘴巴，好隨時準備享用食物。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UyOfiUpDf
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1KCFLOS0H
他哀號聲逐漸被猛獸的吼叫聲淹沒，不久，便沒了聲音。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMHEdel2BA
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDg1powowM0
對於這種血腥畫面，風早已麻痺，甚至是平常不過之事。看到身旁的小男孩，弱小的身軀不斷顫抖。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmgxkwDZ0C
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8s0gGRZJc
「如果會害怕，就轉頭過去。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXVp5eSm2W
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQkCQlvynj
「我不要緊…」小男孩別過頭，笑容中夾雜著悲傷，「這種畫面我已經看過好幾遍，我的同伴全都被威米堤這樣處決。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapL1NypzH5
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63vzooLLlD
放眼望去，底下遍地屍骨，風明白地閉上眼。所有人就如同威米堤那般，被猛獸咬扯、撕裂、啃食，任憑誰都會難過。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQonwglmJI
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbzwvasjwV
突然，一條銀製項鍊，從威米堤身上掉出，在彈跳幾下後，落在前方不遠處。小男孩睜大雙眼，忐忑不安的情緒全寫在臉上。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThTYoeM71k
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvor4LHCid
看到他神色慌張，風好奇地問，「你怎麼了？」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBja9X0Ra0
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXsMwOdikf
「這個…我…」小男孩想拿回項鍊，但底下猛獸凶狠，絕對是必死無疑。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB937toztkl
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZqPRNMyC6
「你說吧！或許我可以幫你。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqKBbHBIsz
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmJX620wjQ
「我想要回那條項鍊…」小男孩囁嚅地開口，手指顫抖地指向前方的光點，畢竟想拿回來簡直是天方夜譚。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5RDFSUzNj
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxh7bjrKSR
風輕閉著眼，沒有多說什麼。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc8rWoa9Nd
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrIyFKc5Jm
「說的也是…對不起，為難你了。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6wiOaN9b9
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjw3DlfoYK
就在小男孩垂頭喪氣時，風猛然睜開雙眼，想也不想地跳下猛獸群中。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfEVOFhyRa
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOTVjk4V8f
「啊－－」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrSyEjkPjn
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjXMrg4Qcp
這個舉動嚇壞了小男孩。他什麼都沒問，就這樣奮不顧身地跳下，況且彼此還是不認識的陌生人…139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrNF4TfduY
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprS5lZ74mo
所有猛獸看見有人跳下來，各各是爭先恐後地張大嘴巴。牠們擁有獅子的外型，除了頭部，其餘全長滿了刺；擁有一尺長的獠牙，張大嘴巴時，足以吞食一個人。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTchEBl6Nl
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTRopaego4
風拔起劍，雙手一握，筆直地刺穿猛獸的嘴巴，隨即左手壓住牠的頭部，輕盈俐落地翻身往後跳，接著右手順勢刺中旁邊猛獸的上顎。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRoqzAGHxX
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QscjdwFDz
所有猛獸看到同伴倒下，全都壓低身體往後退，發出共鳴的低吼聲，看著風挺直著背脊，瀏海底下那雙凌厲的眼，散發出不可小覷的氣勢，誰也沒勇氣敢踏入他的領域。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9R3dO8sqKo
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhYte9Vtzp
望著被嚇壞的猛獸，風明瞭牠們絕對是不會再出手，就大膽地邁步而出，往亮點的方向走去，所有猛獸見到，紛紛退到一旁，與風保持一段距離。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7409CqLxCD
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXeMW9dcB4
走近亮點，風撿起項鍊，略看了一會。純銀的材質，外型比銀幣還要大上三、四倍，中央鑲嵌著藍寶石，周圍雕刻一些複雜的花紋。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbef2MtPpsp
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJrrRQIwvh
看到最後，風赫然驚覺，但立刻收起詫異的神情，將項鍊收起來。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhzj7kNEDd
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AgDoGy3ER
風環繞四周，找出逃離這裡的辦法，只是，除了高聳的石牆，就沒其他工具可利用，可見當初設計這座高牆時，就沒想過讓人有機會逃出去。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4DNa1bPXV
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhryDFLbiL
再度仔細觀察，這回，風注視到高牆上堆疊的石塊凹凸不平，利用這些特色，攀爬石塊而上。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfUG2NhJG7
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZscalzcpzu
才剛站好，小男孩就毫無預警地衝向前抱住風，顫抖的身軀，像是哭泣又像是害怕。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAgq9kFIkk
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWR834HzlX
「太好了！幸好你平安無事，我好怕你會跟他們一樣…」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcDd7hxFG7
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwZb7mw1qB
被這麼擁抱，風有些愣住，看著他弱小的身軀，總算明白為何要幫助他，因為他們的遭遇是如此相像，也渴望被救。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1tZePPy6h
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYHmAtPAgp
不久，小男孩鬆開手，揉著眼睛、紅著臉抬頭苦笑著。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaqpAy4X18
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDiafS22Qw
「對不起！我好像太激動了。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zFNtGnf7P
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQdzFsnzNs
「沒關係。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvO68k801YL
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9AMKXbaMV
風掏出項鍊並攤在小男孩面前。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjW7aXvQSaS
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWf62ogRe1
一看到項鍊，小男孩激動地將項鍊收進懷裡，隨後眼神空洞，緩緩地說著，「當我還是襁褓中的嬰孩時，就被威米堤擄到這裡，並讓我由里特阿姨扶養。里特阿姨曾告訴我，這條項鍊原本是戴在我身上，但威米堤認為價值不凡就將項鍊拿走…所以這是我找尋親生父母的唯一信物。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V8BpDEXis
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXstWHTofw
「原來如此。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGpEwxbaer
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmzYOyAGQn
小男孩攤開手，看著手中的項鍊，喃喃地說著，「原本…我是想跟隨里特阿姨死去…」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCw8FKR6H0z
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xMv9UtTxH
小男孩閉上雙眼，仰天回憶著里特阿姨，她每次總是面帶笑容對他說話。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCviPo90yP
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8yOUOuWIy
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAZeAaLmxq
不要替我難過了，每個人總有一天都會離開這個世界，如果我就這麼死掉，那也是我的盡頭…
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhj0aAv5aA
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMP2kRwiTy
修司，我心愛的兒子，扶養你…我真的很幸福，我不希望你連自己的幸福都還沒得到，就這樣走到盡頭…
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXewqsY6G5b
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4CBGwfuUa
你要好好的活著，要相信！越是有活下去的意念，奇蹟越會在你身上發生…
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4BdsSEx3y
奇蹟…139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyKEy8wI98
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bBSOCfpAI
修司奮力睜開眼睛，抬頭望著風，他的髮色與里特阿姨有些相似，宛如溫柔照耀世界的太陽。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXBIf6SvsV
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTntTOEmXWh
如果不是風的出現，現在他早就被猛獸吞下肚…139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuicelQjMa
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrpN5RCpGR
望著所有骸骨，修司雙手緊握成拳，小聲地唸著，「里特阿姨，以及所有的同伴，我會連同你們的份一起活下去。」139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqId7MePTEg
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBl49BkUwR
風雖然聽不見他在說什麼，不過從他眼神看得出，有著非比尋常的堅定意志。風微微地低著頭，讓瀏海遮住雙目，嘴角露出淡淡的笑容。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NvCIZ9Jny
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrberdJFFe
突然，風感覺一陣天搖地動，幾乎快不能站立。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkgBWBnyNX
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC8rc9XNav
「這是怎麼回事？」修司驚慌失措地四周張望。139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6S2cGN0r33
139Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbqJ2eWZJ0
「難道…」
