帝江一愣，問道：「丹姑娘……此話何意？」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxbYYA2HTj
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGK2D9q26PA
陳丹微笑，道：「您貴為山主，這福澤還請莫要虛耗，我呢，本就是命數已盡之人，此生能多出幾個年頭，見到世間那些從未想過的樣貌，已是感恩戴德，眼下該是時候上路啦。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLWphOCowM
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vKD7GETH3
帝江拿出錦囊，勉力一笑，試圖揭過話題：「不過三年時光呢，世間玄妙之事豈是三年能遍覽的？天山外頭還有許多……」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzeZkHp6dr
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukQBYPBEWG
陳丹拉起帝江的手，接過錦囊，重新放回他掌中，將他拳頭闔上，她說：「我呀，自小便討厭自個兒的名字，若非老爹說這名兒給繡在我那褓布上，我才不用。陳丹陳丹，成單成單，爹娘不僅將我遺棄，難不成還盼著我形單影隻？聽上去怪不吉利的。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4R4IqEUpa
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmQ1BZvDlI
「常霜的名字就挺好，他比我慘些，初見他時已有五歲，比我年長一歲，還沒個名兒，整日只知道在街上流連。好在他碰上我啦，我便給他起了名，就叫常霜，常霜長雙，自此以後我倆便形影不離，縱然世道艱苦，總還有彼此扶持。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9hjB2nivV
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIVcNfB5kl
陳丹放開帝江，自腰間取出帕子一條，陳舊的帕子角落繡有歪歪扭扭的「丹」和「霜」字，兩字風格迥異，但同樣奇醜無比。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9zXg3E05r
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qYt8bwTry
她愛惜地摩挲陳舊但潔淨的帕子，續道：「常霜患病以後，成日想趕我走，千方百計都試遍了，說他厭煩我了、說他失憶了、裝聾裝瞎等等，還有許多，可我偏不走。許是我倔強，將他逼急了，有一回，他不告而別，倒也沒走遠，就藏在屋後樹叢裡邊，但為使我相信他已離家出走，還煞費苦心買通守村大叔，誆我說見到他離去。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5ddSVfqDU
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRX1AhfyeP6
「結果我找了他整整十天，週邊所有村落全都找了，第十天還是老爹看不下去叫人帶話給我，謊稱他被人打劫，傷得厲害，想我回去照看他一陣。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWTTG5qmkj
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNK4JlVIz6T
「回家時常霜悄悄來看我，見我灰頭土臉，衣袍襤褸，兩隻眼睛腫得嚇人。大約是我過份邋遢驚呆了他，常霜不慎滑一跤，碰一聲好大聲，登時叫我發現。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeT7kkS3Jnd
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XYy9xowfL
陳丹重新收起手帕，直視帝江，說：「那時，我撲上去揪住他，一面嚎啕大哭，一面大吼大叫：『不許丟下我！不許丟下我！知道我為什麼喊你常霜嘛？因為此生我只同你雙棲雙宿、茶飯家常！不許丟下我！奈河橋也要同我一塊兒走！』」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92bbCt7PXc
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxqosgrPJz
她笑出聲：「現下想來，這話屬實天真，哪有幾對有情人能一塊兒過奈河橋的？可我該是吼大聲了，竟將朱厭仙家喊了來，這般幼稚的願望忽然便實現了。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7qFYKzWA1
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDMYSsGFi1
陳丹對說：「山主大人，得您垂青實是幸事一件，也十分感念您讓我能親手安葬常霜，可我當真該走了，當初是我喊得同過奈河橋，再不去，常霜該等急了。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjbjWSd7dH
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuCeE11CGe
帝江緊了緊拳頭，輕聲說：「知道了。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiE8jj8nJVz
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkfw7RH617
他也不明白自己為何就這樣執著陳丹，如同陳丹執著常霜一般。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQKxr4Wy9C
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2hnbQ4ycN
但帝江不願過份逼迫陳丹，若他想，令陳丹繼續活下去並非難事，可她若不高興，他大約也高興不起來。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9k7ZFqAL2
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyuYtRYCOo
無妨，他心想，陳丹是凡人，死後入道輪迴，他能探聽她的命數，雖探問輪迴這樣的天機需耗費一些心神，可他樂意，待陳丹轉世時，他定能做那位最早識得她的人。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCp5sryNfUD
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYFNI1YAKv
帝江重新將錦囊收進袖中，好聲尋問道：「福澤所延壽數磕得死緊，今日晚膳便是丹姑娘最後一餐，姑娘可有想吃什麼？」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUNAGTblHw
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTb9zZlyUR
陳丹想了想，笑道：「陽春麵。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkSs1UOC6a
「陽春麵？」帝江倍感疑惑，僅此而已？350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJE4H45ozkJ
「嗯，您還沒嚐過吧，我這廚藝可是得老爹真傳，給您也做一碗吧？飯後再補上一支糖畫鯉魚給您。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsIR3GrDQI
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26x43Y7ToU
「好。」他一笑，很輕很輕地。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kbkFIRWyi
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsqaiATu4m
那碗麵，帝江已忘了是什麼滋味，就如過去他在食肆裡用餐一般，醉翁之意總不在麵，在食肆打雜的少女；在與他同桌的陳丹。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M92sakQ7M
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KEws902sS
那支糖畫鯉魚倒是印象深刻，陳丹許久沒畫鯉魚，手藝依然精湛，帝江覺著挺好看，和初見時一般好看。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26lFcred3s
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1aLaAUEHf
飯後，兩人就著帝江的琴聲有一搭沒一搭地閒話，陳丹似乎沒打算就寢，帝江自然作陪到底。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eCG1dogZA
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIqGlXOdcN
子時將近，時間在一曲良宵引中流逝。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW35IVCVLH0
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLxupKXLe1
帝江問陳丹：「丹姑娘來世想做怎樣的人？」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGBrczyWg7
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcPiXi0QVb
陳丹搔搔臉頰，移開欣賞帝江彈琴的目光，她說：「從未想過呢，待到來世再煩惱好啦。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpUa3RH1yU
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5VYq2hF6l
帝江笑道：「不論是個怎樣的人，定會有個順風順水的一生。」他會看著的。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWUJoBEciJ
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1wIuPGOY1
陳丹搔抓臉頰的手有些僵硬，她笑而不語。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnd7dib5JZ
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81BO35Iq4L
子時正。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWbuVJ22vu
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopMMXFjLew
一股異樣爬上陳丹心頭，她忙抬頭看向帝江，後者擱下落霞古琴，起身握住陳丹雙手，說道：「丹姑娘，走好，來世再見。」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXjBSol2m7
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnyrEV828W
一顆淚珠溢出陳丹眼眶，她低聲說：「對不住，帝江大人，謝謝您，謝謝您……永別了……大人……」話音未盡前，陳丹已化作一抔輕塵，頃刻散失。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jIaupnFE8
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGplh5jXU3
帝江沒看見凡人死亡時該有的微光，三魂七魄的光，有魂魄方能入道輪迴，再臨常世。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡED0iTdzwak
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNhJH7wjqR
陳丹身死即魂滅。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO57CMYikwZ
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7zBHyAqyp
她始終沒告訴帝江，朱厭同她一塊兒回家時，常霜剛嚥下最後一口氣，除了渡予常霜一半壽數，陳丹還以自個兒轉生的機會，換回常霜今生。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzA20mCQzP
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmz5xGTiWD
同過奈河橋都是瞎說，此後，世間再無陳丹。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIN5zBFf0uE
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6wBhZrLK2
帝江頭一次想留在身邊的姑娘，在他眼前逝去，決絕地，徹底地。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMLYiO7qJS
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hjJZOsXi7
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3ennjb4KI
「……」一時靜默，齊雨瞥向身旁離綰，姑娘正淅瀝嘩啦地哭，帝江流不出的淚水都讓她幫忙流了，肩頭青鳥十分有耐心地一下一下以翅膀替她擦淚，不時撓撓她鼻尖逗她笑。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKX3seffTh
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDINKQwMwV
齊雨抬起手，摸摸袖口，又將手擱回膝頭，開口問道：「而後，你去了哪兒？宣鑒既不知曉此事，那便是冥府十殿閻王處了？可是忘川？」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAFcwF0FNS
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZHaMmOt4l
帝江長歎一口氣道：「非也，我想過忘川，可陳丹魂魄已散，忘川乃是魂魄洗滌之處，既無魂魄，她又怎會在忘川裡？」350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapbcMwqC9k
350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkUr6GhqQX
「於是？」齊雨問。350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeRqPR4Amf
「我去了眾帝之臺。」帝江說。
