經過了幾年時間，丁開始習慣工作，習慣看別人的臉色過日子，習慣沒有白澤的日子。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAG3ArJX3Q
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXYVTan18j
不會回來了吧？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdhhmnnXb1
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgo9wlFY5t
從村人們的交談中，丁不得不接受這樣的事實。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBhrJdA8MP
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6KEC8osI1
在覺悟的那天蒙頭大哭了一夜，接下來他就怎麼也流不出淚來，投身於忙碌的工作當中。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dvq2FjUDN
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xG5ThNAAA
他可以在忙碌中忘了許多事，忘了他過去的名字，忘了他小時候親暱叫著的名字，忘了他曾經那樣幸福的活在另一個人的寵溺中，甚至忘了該怎麼笑。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXce6glFPGI
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0BYrqRG7I
不知不覺，他似乎已經很久沒有笑過了。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKpxpcBduK
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNY84vP9l0d
他伸手摸上自己變得下垂的嘴角，然後在四顧無人後拿出白澤唯一遺留下的物品。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZujOTTzUW2
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhxX8CH8PB
黃色的金屬雕刻著他不了解的紋路，鮮紅的繩結綁成他無法理解的構造，他唯一記得的似乎只剩下如夢般朦朧的甜美回憶及這東西不能被其他人得手的念頭。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIuyvALEhg
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiqfjQpsh9
只是有時看著這東西會覺得他還能繼續努力下去。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pp1Uu2sPO
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA2q8eyoH3
或許他心底還是期待著的吧？期待那個被自己淡忘的人能夠前來迎接自己。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iRZtcPrtm
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUsrW3KWRm
嘲笑著自己那無謂的心情，丁將紅繩重新藏回懷中，然後繼續投身彷彿無止無盡的工作。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhgqwFFBAJ

「還不下雨…！獻上活祭品吧！」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM986PA96Ik
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHiJJwROzQ
某日夜晚，在丁進入夢鄉前，他隱約聽到如此的聲音。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XpfexzPY4
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGm80eXUGus
啊啊，活祭品，是指活生生被獻給神明的動物嗎？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYSP2vhIEl
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1x1sfmQQQ
「我不要當祭品。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkSmn7bO11
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWThKPKCLJQ
嗯？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnvPtGLf7w
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41g02Zujct
「我也不要。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraqLOqjuIL
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSchvgf6yX
不是用動物嗎？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20WpUKVgwt
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQouPMmfAE
「丁呢？」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKVvJu2KD2
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLscjD1LSp
！77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb4eCp6THy
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15UQqxDo5u
「對了，還有丁吶。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwuT9UVYsz
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zs0Yh8hn6
我要被交給神明？在祭壇上活生生地被殺死嗎？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0klLX5oO1L
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXjzjJIn4d
不，這個村裡的人應該不至於這麼做，頂多把我放在那裏直到餓死吧？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmGesU3TZd
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrU8992gjoz
……回收屍體的時候，這東西會被看到的。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2oPG6y1O9
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgEXYVNG9Y
聽著聲音漸弱，等到火光熄滅，丁坐起身，輕巧的離開床舖。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1DQmTtCno
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMMpQ0Vl9R
吃了他們那麼多年的飯，讓我回報這條命是無所謂，但是，只有這個絕不讓給任何人。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEwNgPoB9x
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoNO0YNbbH
順著月光及星光，從小生長在野外的丁熟悉的行走於黑暗之間，終於在深夜走到了距離村莊不算遠卻足夠隱密的，他以前的家。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup3Rr4GCVw
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNJGl5eTUc
當他以前很累很累的時候，就會偷偷跑來這裡，緬懷著已經不記得的那個人。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHMUTATzuZ
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzPf2RJbmr
丁面無表情地想著，坐在樹洞外，手上拿著一根沒有很纖細的樹枝。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtuKGkkdeL
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvX9CKCGGUT
將樹枝插在樹洞前的土壤，丁的嘴角微微上揚。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQ1vZWsWVy
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9Ee5LFFzC
感謝你小時候的照顧。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Rim6xWjFt
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJlRpv7UUq
默念著，丁將一直珍藏的寶物纏繞在樹枝上頭。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLPa9X48b4
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46DbYcQ52M
大概明天，我就會被告知這件事了。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSD53DSJpJH
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxD0HLsIfb
我，一直都......77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwW1o3KK4eM
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83acAlNvlG
嗤笑自己的情感，丁勾起嘴角，然後站起身。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZ37kubbzo
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnfhAO7szR
永別了，以後就再也見不到面了。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp70ScYFwgI
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7FNlec71W
想著，丁覺得眼睛有些酸澀，揉揉眼，他還是踏著步伐回到村落。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUniAY50WK
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4MwRKoW8m
以後就真的，可以不用再抱著希望，一日復一日的等下去了。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JRC6rxdai
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLukDFrp2k
抹殺掉自己心中那份期待，丁冷靜地想著。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJWniehNQ4
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPUCzDlNGm
近十年都不曾出現過的人，是不可能在最後一刻出現的。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIqGmXoGjj
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHa7gY5X4N
這樣就好，這樣就可以了。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70rnT3jtwL
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvM5kB9uBz
難得的度過不是一覺到天亮的夜晚，丁這夜幾乎沒睡，就算意識模糊也會立刻夢到那些充滿希望的夢境而驚醒。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8GJpRNj6N
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAg21vja3GW
他不想要再一次的抱著希望，因此他只能自己去接受絕望。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQxSrU4hed
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3alfmOld2g
為了這些村民，為了這些養活自己的村民，為了這些奴役自己的村民……77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOS7THUIzA
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZH3mVdBeW
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhQa7g6YVC
「丁，你起床了嗎？」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUMSCU8ZAx
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQ5QTDxtmc
「……是。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwO4vi6Yy7
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApoEZnlY0g
「我們有些話想跟你說。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX0AjVNuiE
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUoO0dfPPw
不是一個人，就算想逃也逃不掉，對吧？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLLJLlEqS6
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoyBf2EygT
丁在心裡想著，一邊聆聽村長那一長串的理由，然後點頭。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Y2KAgiq4T
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5FYDFUqIl
「我願意。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUi1U7CYaLQ
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67fRpOdGr9
然後在眾人鬆了一口氣的情況下，被包圍著前往祭場。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByWPpyQhhj
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRdgzE8TKs
「換上這個。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLH8JT3R3kJ
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVSAaKN3Cv
「戴上這個。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYEIZe7VbP
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7w0Uv9UF3
「還有這個。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1geEW3aVm0
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlCWPq7K6Z
「喂，把那個拿來。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduiJNuXNaJ
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbtR3ZPfjT
七手八腳地趕在夜晚前把東西弄好，丁端坐在祭壇上，依照村長的說法雙手合十，等待神明的降臨。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeH0FDl8VO
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIejW3gLruL
「不要恨我啊，丁。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGP8KjUkthK
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3u62RhE2nK
村長說著，也朝著他的方向拜了一拜。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckN9GG1aAV
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuzREttQHa
「沒事的，如今的時代只有這個方法可以穩定人心，我不會怨恨的。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgoeLqdL6P
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKy4XtHKow
沒有看向任何人，丁把視線放在山的某處，他猜想應該是他過去居住的地方。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBhftbjORs
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KfqBtGrTS
而村人們你看看我、我看看你，便在陸續道謝後離開了祭壇。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIjgn2WHMX
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWn23jtNoJc
「…若是有黃泉這種東西，我一定要讓村裡的人嚐嚐死後被我制裁的滋味……」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOW0qIizLu
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8woCa8yiwr
丁小聲的碎念，像是要告訴自己，也像是在偷偷的警告村人。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZ8KFKazCE
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKPEoMiPru
「永別了，請多保重。」77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwNBGOWk1o
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxofpvalMD
如果沒有黃泉存在的話。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGLWGOTyL0
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19LsmqkqA8
丁維持著端正的姿勢，直到確認村人們走遠。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFe5kXcopT
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGxcLPICZh
神明長什麼樣子呢？真的會有神明嗎？真的是神明嗎？真的有神嗎？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP17xUIr960
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAEXGcZBbI
經過一整天的空腹洗禮，丁已經感覺不到餓意，喝了放在祭壇上的酒後便臥倒在祭壇上。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpg5wAvQo3k
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnekd60twVK
為什麼，為什麼沒有來接我？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjql6Rdeh6v
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxuQXTgurL
因為我忘了你叫我的名字？還是我忘了你的樣子？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7LXq3hfZW
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4CG9u0RyN
你真的，拋棄了我嗎？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTS8x8kXLd
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRLMMbL9uG
再也，見不到面了。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9nTRJwiR3
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZ8juufFh9
永遠。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEAZK4GQ6W
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8snLxFqfFB
完全放下希望，原來是那麼難受的事嗎？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWyAJ0YTe2
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30WXFQw0fg
乾澀的眼睛流出淚來，看著天上閃閃的繁星，丁又狠狠地把村子的人詛咒了一遍。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNNPuvNcwl
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMlxWkxQmI
說不定，再多等幾天他就會出現了啊！77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedIIwnQjB4
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KTw2aYc5S
悲憤交加，周圍丁看不到的鬼火逐漸被他的恨意吸引過來。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOoWdf04qp
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEayOf7bKbc
感覺被風吹的冰冷的身體瞬間像燒起來一般灼熱，丁在瞬間以為是神明的到來。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0ee49pNrd
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQ1H8omqFG
是鬼喔。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf8OwejvpK
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7koLmS1m7X
腦海裡有個聲音說著。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKTVRhPQ0M
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4tU6QoHiL
因為跟鬼火結合，你以後就是鬼了。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib3kW0NVun
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyxRipVnZM
跟神明完全無緣的詞彙。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkVX07td6n
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeviHWYewF
是鬼的話，就可以去到黃泉狠狠的懲戒那些人了吧？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwu7zHRUPB
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUouIwNIe9
從祭壇上坐起身，丁張開眼睛。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZOzsqvqV8
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzFNi8RX2Q
我是鬼，就算真的有神明他也不會想要這樣的祭品的。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbNUUmkpWV
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7Yu1EO0tk
然後離開祭壇。77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzG4PwyoUc
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwYuwlZnHN
就連那個人，也不會要我吧？77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrad0KxY6Xc
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYrmeyoNkg
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDxYXb1s4Z
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvf9JKcj70M
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhQcCvGO7W
77Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vG6q0SMaq
因為，我已經不是人了。
