在瘋狂奔馳於清晨薄霧的馬車中，婦人低頭祈禱。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jaH1tcs4s
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4A0qIwtI4V
顛簸路途一再打斷她的聲音，但即使嘴唇顫抖發白，她依然緊握著手中的基督聖像喃喃祈禱，而另一手，則將緊靠在她身邊，頭髮微亂的華服少女攬在懷中。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWA1TocVehP
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvJZdXxSzq
她們在逃亡。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxQfWV2g62
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgOEExZgP9
少女從頭到尾一聲不吭，蒼白小臉上有著疲倦神情，髮髻已經因為馬車顛簸而散開些許，看起來有些狼狽。可她始終緊挨著奶媽，揣著懷中用小塊花巾包裹的盒子，像是要用身體護衛它似的抱著它，用力到連手指關節都泛白。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV84p4FG6e
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlm95MWh2G
略顯福態的婦人仍然在禱告。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3YuCjeoz7
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPefipCwCH
可突然，像是輪子滾過什麼石塊，高速奔馳中的馬車劇烈震了一下，那瞬間像被高高拋起而又墜落的失重感揪緊了少女和婦人的心臟。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3UfVspEMZ
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwCdVNscSF
少女低低叫了一聲，更加用力地往奶媽身邊靠。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8BkpT7lED
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuxI7cxC5y
「......別擔心，小姐。」雖然自己也哆嗦著，可婦人還是強打起精神安慰少女，「我們會安全的。」33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla0DEi8REH
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98abqhRmh0
「......會嗎......」少女抬起絕望但渴求希冀的眼睛看著奶媽。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWxC7fQuOT
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WCmhxtzUU
「當然。」婦人說，同時也在給自己打氣，「前面就是邊界，只要出了森林，就可以和大少爺派來的人會合......」33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUicx6mzCv
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvwl383ldU
可她話還沒說完，「咄」一聲脆響帶著恐慌釘上馬車車廂，同時也釘近了車廂內的女眷心裡。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2O7aiUKTG
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29MKUUc9k3
「奶媽！」少女低叫，將頭偎進婦人懷中尋求安慰。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzd9AZLBHc
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡast6ICvodk
「喔！主！」婦人臉色慘白地呼喚聖名。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dXCnYGRJK
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWdEimVCgn
可追擊的箭矢毫不留情地在車廂上敲擊著瘋狂的鈍響。前方拉車馬匹受驚，步伐變亂，連帶著馬車也被左右甩動。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVr8OAWhOH
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74ORKUZe0S
外面傳來馬車夫的高聲叫罵，以及追兵們越來越近的馬蹄聲與高喊聲。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKON0qrNK0
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgFNp2jqV1
兩個女人在車廂內被甩離座位，跌撞上車廂門。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48Hlz1qw8u
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPQVOHFOiB
她們低呼，婦人連忙把少女扯進懷中抱緊，用自己的身體保護她。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNiqsndBOI
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESCNqTVeLz
可下一波震盪更加劇烈。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIZbKkPDze
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVnHx8KZsz
後方射來的箭矢卡進急速滾動的車輪間，衣邊輪子失衡，整輛馬車巢一旁狠狠偏斜開來，甩動的力道將依偎在一起的少女與婦人毫不留情地甩開。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYiCDO8Hgv
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC4esoFR9j
婦人跌在座椅編，好不容易攀住椅子穩固自己的身體。可少女卻沒有那麼幸運。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuhwZlbUDP
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKu2o8wDMs
震盪時那個小包裹自她懷中掉出去，想起父兄曾叮囑這東西有多重要，黑髮的女孩不假思索地撲過去抓住它、再次抱回懷中。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8EZFIVB7D
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjo9bDurRn
可還來不及鬆一口氣，下一波顛簸就將她纖細的軀體拋出去，重重撞上馬車車門！33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZiMlJmw3r
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05vDNt3Qsm
車門禁不住撞擊力道鬆了開，少女就在馬車飛馳間跌了出去！33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKNWqPmw8z
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUFAMOo9t5
「呀啊——」33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8H8psh18l0
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7xnK4Qtsd
「小姐——」33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeWTfOCTyj
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklM7McJ3g0
少女纖細的軀體在空中無助地墜落，摔進路旁的樹叢間。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aWdjYGgvD
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHdp2LIMwQ
遭受追擊的馬車也在下一刻翻覆，拉車的馬匹被射中腿部，長嘶一聲倒地。連帶著馬車傾覆，在大路上滑行一段，掀起的黃沙遮蔽了混亂中的一切，包括少女飛跌出去的身影。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zBr5YrnRD
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡog1orxG1fz
轟隆巨響令少女呼吸一窒，顧不得被尖銳石塊和樹枝擦破的傷，她手腳並用地從樹叢中爬起，往煙塵中一看——33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSD1QeRyP7
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjN3udowYi8
馬車整個翻倒，還在車廂內的婦人來不及逃出，被笨重的車體壓住下半身，痛苦地呻吟著。倒地的馬匹旁，車夫雖然僥倖跳車逃過一劫，但才剛站起來，就被隨後而來的箭矢貫穿胸膛，一聲不吭便倒地不起。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mHoZ59vXl
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvv2GOgfaCD
從未經歷過這一切的少女到抽一口氣，摀住將驚喊出聲的嘴，大大的眼眶裡含著淚水。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyDDWmeOwG
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡse207tKkF7
後頭追兵的聲音趕到，少女下意識地往樹叢裡縮，盡量縮小身形，藏在一片枝葉中。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFZp3Uf6Gq
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JYL4urpAu
就在這時，她望見被壓在馬車下的奶媽抬起頭來，鮮紅的血自她額頭流下，襯著慘白的臉色看起來觸目驚心。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzwtykpnxn
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtLe2spsYM
婦人的視線往她這裡掃過，正巧與少女四目相對。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFsGFjLZDa
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomkWAGMGW4
少女的心臟猛然揪緊——怎麼辦？她該怎麼做？33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXb24y6o5Yb
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNrHyTXhaH
她不知道是不是該出去救人，也不知道奶媽會不會將她的所在位置告訴追上來的人，也不知道自己現在該如何反應。只能盡量縮緊肩膀，抱緊懷中的包裹，小心翼翼地更往樹叢裡縮。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSckxv03owg
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zCJMTDIXC
後面的追兵很快趕到，那是一隊五人的搜索隊，每個人都背著弓、帶著劍，騎著快馬。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGI6rYxIvt
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJh7lgzROeE
他們從馬上躍下，一腳踢開車夫的屍體，粗魯地在馬車四周巡視。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxv7UaAke8
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQn9wpsSBGt
「在這裡！」一人發現被壓在車廂下的婦人，高聲呼喊同伴。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdafl9Qbwy
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOENGgYGMu
像是領頭的男人走過來，一把扯起婦人的頭髮，強迫她抬頭。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNV8lIRuFz
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNoydMz0Cw
「只有妳一個人嗎？」男人問。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRx7ohwd89
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlR77dnr7w
樹叢裡的少女聽不清他們說的話，心臟劇烈跳動的聲音令她什麼都聽不清。睜大的眼睛裡只有奶媽染血的面孔和悄悄向她移來的視線。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTBwV1xmll
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhBBmo8Sao
「還有別人嗎？」見她遲遲不回答，男人用力地搧了婦人一巴掌。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyvquho9IV
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4T5MAkDJx
被打得呻吟一聲，婦人開始啜泣，緩緩回答，「沒、沒有了......」33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeon3u3RerE
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jP432PAB3
「可惡！不是這一邊！」男人忿忿地鬆開手，站起身來，大聲指揮部下撤離。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dDsUBEj7i
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWRYbkZkY6
而婦人失去支撐的頭部軟軟垂下，可眼睛還是盯著藏身樹叢裡的少女看。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHRP6tq07H
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosNV9Zl569
——快走......33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiD4WocN1p
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwHMA3cJO0
淚水從她眼眶裡湧出，她其實已經看不清少女是否還在那個方向，但嘴唇仍蠕動著，無聲叮囑。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yl5l0Iz12
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCejPemDlA
「這個女人怎麼辦？」一名搜索隊員問著隊長。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2kKRT3d2K
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0sQZNHslJ
男人瞥了倒地的婦人一眼，聲音冷漠，「放著不管也是死路一條，讓她早點解脫吧。」33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLiVXqXcET
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljo9tu4Rjs
這句話如同針尖一樣打入婦人心裡，刺痛的絕望湧上，她掙扎著想要求生，無奈下半身動彈不得，而失血也讓她的意識開始模糊。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TYNgeDLgN
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpG4qNQJmK
男人轉身離去後，留在原地的部下高舉長劍，劍尖朝下對準她的心臟。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbUcPUFuJ3
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKi2ahEKXe
那抹寒光在婦人模糊的淚眼裡異常刺目。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRuorUJ7Nn
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHN3k7UXPH
也刺痛了躲在不遠處的少女的眼。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FrrPX510m
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy80ljJY8qm
「......不......」淚落下的時候，連同哀求也一起吞沒。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrU623aQFb0
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77wikym5oD
劍尖刺下。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLJkdDl8yr
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDhhAscczG
婦人的生命就這麼平靜地殞落。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvETn2giOI
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRCXxEIFoe
少女咬著下唇，瞪大眼睛看著這一切。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ487c2pTuXY
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVLQJhN0B7
她多想閉起眼不看，可沒有辦法，身體不聽她使喚。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRWQWyxXfW
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKDiE6i5BU
尖銳的劍從婦人體內抽出，帶出鮮血，濺上了男人的褲管。但就像他絲毫不在意地奪走一條人命地對褲子上的汙垢不以為意，大步跨過地上的屍體，翻身上馬。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6MrRJuAMv
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOI7yj3tsS
一行五人很快策馬離去，馬蹄聲遠離後，森林裡又恢復寂靜。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVElEeFMgW
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ajuab6aoU
少女壓抑著哭喊，想放聲尖叫的衝動在她喉嚨裡只剩下悶聲啜泣。她從樹叢裡爬出來，細白手臂上的刮傷奪不去她的注意力，她全身慣住在眼前狼藉的馬車，以及躺在鮮血中的奶媽屍體。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPKVrhRfrw
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO52yZKoukf
她繞著路走，手指攥緊了破爛的裙襬，另一手將包裹抱的更緊。她不敢靠近屍體，只能在周圍徘徊、無所適從。最後累了，只好在樹叢邊坐下，縮緊膝蓋，顫抖著哭泣。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcixTJFPBbg
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3lUXWJd12
可沒有人會來。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTNfaXPP5L
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkzEnjfKpi
也沒有人會給少女幫助。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡll3C6Zfkqg
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSPpd8Drfw
天色暗了下來，在密林裡，光線消逝的更快。而在森林裡活動的細微聲響，一但入夜，就像被放大數百倍似的，圍繞在少女身邊，帶著恐懼以及寒冷。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVd3ePDDitl
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5G6b3ZIGj
她發著抖，一開始是因為害怕，但後來就是貨真價實的寒冷，腹中的空虛感同樣折磨著她。少女已經不再哭泣，因為她沒有半點力氣。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJvKAUt6Iz
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZMDVL7OlT
最後，她想起馬車裡有一籃麵包，還有她的斗篷。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0a6busAjj
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0XMuvUkc1
馬車翻覆了，可是麵包和斗篷應該都還在。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiEPXHAOKi
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EC7oy3tUA
求生的抑制戰勝了她的恐懼，提供了一時的力量。她往馬車的方向爬去，攀上翻覆的車體，從被擠壓而破裂的部份鑽進去。裂口不大，幸好少女的身形還可以通過。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBp7H0yPxMT
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoLUgsLgiV
身上的洋裝經過這一連串慘劇已經破爛不堪，不過此刻少女毫不在意。她爬進車廂裡，找到被壓爛但還可以吃的麵包，狼吞虎嚥地吞下肚，填飽肚子後，她又從變成碎片的天鵝絨座椅下拉出斗篷，用它裹住身體，就這麼蜷在破敗的車廂裡。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0MeNpXqmm
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO37xthjgvz
奶媽被壓住的腳踝就在身邊，提醒少女她離死亡多近。33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvTgClpzeo
33Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyo2aAIEww
她縮緊身體，口裡唸著禱詞，用力地，像只有它是她唯一可以倚仗、寄託的那般，緊緊抱住懷中的包裹，絕望地等待清晨的到來......ns3.137.214.24da2
