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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSraNylAka
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGrMGisg9Q
不會回來了吧？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjKPcUUUdn
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgxNL4VsFq
從村人們的交談中，丁不得不接受這樣的事實。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAUdM4URHE
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN67jOrrXVr
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUEXl4QljL
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmnbL8Rr1x
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8usztjCAri
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7AA6QWxOl
不知不覺，他似乎已經很久沒有笑過了。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0rSZJNmsd
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApeHKGzsv3
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlKuCaDhWC
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfLHmlusV5
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfy2kjqvBh3
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDs5ok28Nx
只是有時看著這東西會覺得他還能繼續努力下去。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMybw0CL7jP
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r51Rtt3Q3
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHK7lBIWWj
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1UMiEoFjz
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkETj3vmkN
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkR9qV8Lzya
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0A2SaKO7P
「還不下雨…！獻上活祭品吧！」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeow3JftF4q
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym2Kir9cTi
某日夜晚，在丁進入夢鄉前，他隱約聽到如此的聲音。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMFdwMj0B8
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tum3LaZtR
啊啊，活祭品，是指活生生被獻給神明的動物嗎？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmlRWpziPa
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZCj8nr2HJ
「我不要當祭品。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRSnurZMTr
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq8eG3Td9L
嗯？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESEQbifoc1
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtMZNsdqIw
「我也不要。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu65PEUaGH
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYjVIelcJP
不是用動物嗎？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJCA9onk0j
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPGhrGVGou
「丁呢？」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0BDe5tDwm
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvpd5P5Axe
！63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlTp1JRubw
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYgUJQWLvK
「對了，還有丁吶。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaRdI352YN
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHEdhTmWCb
我要被交給神明？在祭壇上活生生地被殺死嗎？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAjjUWyDL9
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfGi1QEqxx
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？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpmOQ7LstE
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ze0C1WR2b
……回收屍體的時候，這東西會被看到的。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIFJ1KR911
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQf5Bi7r4cV
聽著聲音漸弱，等到火光熄滅，丁坐起身，輕巧的離開床舖。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgFSHO5eGb
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxPGre4ptu
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vK3LsXCf4
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyBoXkAi6y
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQpjsqWApG
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pwbQsWnUl
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiWO2ubW9o
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXkR7c6WCP
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BnkiEgpT0
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevxorrkUXa
將樹枝插在樹洞前的土壤，丁的嘴角微微上揚。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGar8FULrdm
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPB0lmJC7gp
感謝你小時候的照顧。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrZChw2ac1
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLySVEsODQd
默念著，丁將一直珍藏的寶物纏繞在樹枝上頭。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEI7rpc7ETt
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡga7pgEl43t
大概明天，我就會被告知這件事了。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4U3ABi5xxK
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG6inQWwea
我，一直都......63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazCcL7oO7e
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3zSIkJjUp
嗤笑自己的情感，丁勾起嘴角，然後站起身。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0ysuYf8qo
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvogT3FvMM
永別了，以後就再也見不到面了。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG2yljYUTn
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvDKZZcW1E
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPORUrVs6M
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEB1wnw80eV
以後就真的，可以不用再抱著希望，一日復一日的等下去了。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzuMX3oGLM
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0O43T5d148
抹殺掉自己心中那份期待，丁冷靜地想著。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvf0Jh1N6Qi
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZabgpL0dQH
近十年都不曾出現過的人，是不可能在最後一刻出現的。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDZ114oUNa
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9k4eon0FPT
這樣就好，這樣就可以了。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4BAk9z0Bi
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QGu3Cmdez
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2LbHytapv
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7PAVJ9P8u
他不想要再一次的抱著希望，因此他只能自己去接受絕望。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIKFezurSj
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTlE3Udg8P
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……63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPkbohHs8V
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUpRtAM9AD
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZbDQzPoDY
「丁，你起床了嗎？」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrRRXTknlL
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgO38e2vRrP
「……是。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcMMtTqDDY
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XVR0dQQ1B
「我們有些話想跟你說。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmBloeKQgQ
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrb19fToXVU
不是一個人，就算想逃也逃不掉，對吧？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrVAIJ6PHU
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEA6pVEnWz
丁在心裡想著，一邊聆聽村長那一長串的理由，然後點頭。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMkn1CVWkE
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxx5Hq6TIJ
「我願意。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUf4aH9Vhk
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy9gqJLY6O
然後在眾人鬆了一口氣的情況下，被包圍著前往祭場。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71tlsKhijk
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr56mzayPsk
「換上這個。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9AgT99ZLQ
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4Jj1Q5ile
「戴上這個。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRQmSycKQj
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJvOwlVlpi
「還有這個。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvr9MxOJYe
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchaOolvh5f
「喂，把那個拿來。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxYMCABMgj
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZx6ZNLyoT
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7A3LoJcZLD
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JA4EEiG22
「不要恨我啊，丁。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3gMMm2ozG
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZmdJ3cGeV
村長說著，也朝著他的方向拜了一拜。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4j1XQ197d9
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7SBePOQ22
「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。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9ctHA8xZD
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr22bgwrELt
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMzRsEVHAl
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2BOgiDMMI
而村人們你看看我、我看看你，便在陸續道謝後離開了祭壇。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XZjcoGFMe
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwlV08mgty
「…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……」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibXDeHcEEr
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmie6Z0Q1PC
丁小聲的碎念，像是要告訴自己，也像是在偷偷的警告村人。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWq8P81KG8
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCF3PAQzF4C
「永別了，請多保重。」63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHR7XdE3vcU
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLR9Uf7BWyA
如果沒有黃泉存在的話。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeu5qvCbbWa
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBg2ihWoWo
丁維持著端正的姿勢，直到確認村人們走遠。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ObrOzyXuN
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CbHOpo51Q
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？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmC2C4huER
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mOR52GNyk
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCkVEO54Ry
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6lsSYbPAo
為什麼，為什麼沒有來接我？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhFseHoAnA
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXIPa0lTDw
因為我忘了你叫我的名字？還是我忘了你的樣子？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXQThXHyTW
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4mHpUwDDu
你真的，拋棄了我嗎？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYjDiepyKm
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxN3OVScitJ
再也，見不到面了。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJl11Z8Wn7
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxI1gDjeTZ
永遠。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGSi2oL3I7
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRBerwnJxJ
完全放下希望，原來是那麼難受的事嗎？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCkTerNKJa
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsNKjuZ6sg
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFQxPR8lIv
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhCvuVHbeV
說不定，再多等幾天他就會出現了啊！63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWrjTzo7HU
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiBOwolgbf
悲憤交加，周圍丁看不到的鬼火逐漸被他的恨意吸引過來。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4TcbeqOPD
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPv5rhqHbw
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。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNl0FUgYIeN
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HQUxXdvpj
是鬼喔。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0CDS7y0pC
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuJey9pM2C
腦海裡有個聲音說著。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvQ8IK6Upl
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxWCpfs7Jy
因為跟鬼火結合，你以後就是鬼了。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvwtasgHWv
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7MZYiQfoi
跟神明完全無緣的詞彙。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirn9R4JyY1
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPHPAE1gfc
是鬼的話，就可以去到黃泉狠狠的懲戒那些人了吧？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmLmt48rML
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGKrqCcWuv
從祭壇上坐起身，丁張開眼睛。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfoXwx2Tit
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhcnZNPJ0l
我是鬼，就算真的有神明他也不會想要這樣的祭品的。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnN7SCNmAY
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IMm0vaDt0
然後離開祭壇。63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2Wyeu0K9K
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruwVWQU6zM
就連那個人，也不會要我吧？63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQxHav3XC4
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqWT2ZNq9X
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgKZMxjd2m
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYmfNK3pmy
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXRnlcLc6s
63Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPRdF4JfeN
因為，我已經不是人了。
