經過盛夏烈火般的悶燒，秋天的太陽就著夏日殘留的餘溫，將青綠的草木烘烤成溫暖的橘黃色。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlCJiMEdkt

林子裡，群樹下厚實的土壤開始鬆動。秋蟬的幼蟲在地底下沉睡多年，終於擁有足夠的力氣，撥開眼前的碎土，攀上枯木的枝幹，征服昔日賴以維生的大樹。費盡千辛萬苦達成目標的成蟲，得意的在樹上高聲鳴唱，尾隨在後的幾隻同伴，亦大展歌喉加入行列。從激昂的獨唱到和諧的齊唱，爾後重唱的跟進再加上輪唱的鋪疊，層層交替，句句悠揚，為日漸蕭索的森林再添生氣。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVn0MY4Crr1

「咻－－砰！」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLRbjVRF2c
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjoVoCvAGg
倏地一聲驚動了樹上的每一隻蟬，喧鬧的蟬鳴驟然停止，只剩下綿細微弱的低吟。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGxKZlWVs0
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJrr70NV0c
一支苦無毫不留情的在樹上劃下刻痕，並惡狠很的刺入樹心。一陣腳步聲由遠而近，顯然苦無的主人就要來取回自己的私物。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivM5bFo6Wl

「沙沙！」遍地的枯葉脆弱易折，每踩即碎。現身的是一位貌約不過六歲的小男孩，黑髮上汗水淋漓，臉頰微微漲紅，嘴理不規律的喘氣。白嫩的手臂上滲著一絲鮮紅欲滴的血痕，前幾天的舊傷被新傷覆蓋，看來小傢伙投擲苦無的技巧還不到家呢！58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdyj7xB0RF
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1pO8FTqDL
「不夠！還不夠！」男孩走到大樹前，望著樹上的苦無不甘心的想著。回頭四顧，林蔭下的陰影又比剛才灰黯了一點，地上的落葉在光線照射下看來也暗紅許多。太陽快下山了，要加緊練習才行！心中催促著，男孩揮手抹去汗水，便向前要拔下苦無。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3efdULuso
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ahlvk0Pd2
「索索……」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YHlc3qeoN
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55RaBbnFRM
腳邊窸窸窣窣的聲音引起男孩的注意，他低頭一看，發現一隻急欲爬上樹幹，卻不斷滑落在樹根旁的成蟬。成蟬努力的揮舞六肢，掙扎著又挑戰幾次，反而栽了個跟斗，跌在草地上臥也不是、翻也不是。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDf9fkd5iym
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkEhON8ZFL
看著遍體鱗傷仍勤奮不懈的成蟬，男孩停頓了一會，彎下身，想拾起成蟬把牠放到樹上，以助牠一臂之力。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKR4UtCZBP
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwRlrGJJ0N
「佐助，不要動牠。」手指還未碰著成蟬，身後即傳來制止的聲音。男孩回過頭尋找聲音的來源，視線落在距離自己不到五米的少年身上。臉上兩條深陷而沉穩的法令紋，背後梳著一束黑髮的少年，無疑是勤練苦無的男孩－－宇智波佐助最熟悉不過的兄弟－－宇智波鼬。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1P8ExL5Fp
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuwwbwwZES
「哥哥？」佐助問道。見弟弟認出自己，身為兄長的鼬溫柔的笑了。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi0AQcqmPB
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXScFJ4F7va
「今天怎麼這麼早就回來了？」佐助問道。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdhWt0ao4W
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xmE1S38Ie
「任務比預期的時間還要早完成，所以就回來了。」鼬走到佐助身旁問道：「你苦無練到一半偷懶了，竟然在這裡玩蟬？」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IoAwHGzXI
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhzzRd4aYs
佐助見自己被誤會，頗不高興的回道：「才沒有！我是看到牠一直掉下來，才想要幫牠！是牠自己太笨了！」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkCesGp068
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWei0clmcS6
鼬當然知道佐助不會只顧玩樂而忘記修練，佐助為了追上他的背影有多麼努力，他比誰都清楚。他不過是看到弟弟認真的模樣，忍不住想逗弄一番罷了。誰知道佐助就是這麼可愛，隨便一鬧就上了當？58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWiBhcCvDh
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhVGUqU1Nd
「佐助，」鼬說道：「不可以幫牠喔！」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwci1Fz0VvB
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkALkRy8eRv
「為、為什麼？」佐助不解的問道。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQYZ8otuca
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmisR4D6mqO
「這棵樹很高，對吧？」鼬抬起頭望著樹頂道。佐助見哥哥如此做，跟著仰起了稚氣的小臉。晶瑩的陽光穿透枝葉灑下，好在時間已經黃昏，不會覺得太過刺眼。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPkMBkCLfM
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8Cyesngyw
「不管是誰，在達到目標之前，一定有很長的路要走。過程中遇到的種種阻礙，必須要靠自己解決，才能有所成長。」鼬低頭看佐助道：「你不可以幫牠走喔！」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhmmFS5Ues
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRWb1vmREA
佐助皺了皺眉，年幼的他還不是很懂。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXtnUwjUY9
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MqEtvtid8
「你自己也是一樣，要增強實力只能靠你自己！」鼬邊笑道，邊慣性的伸出手指往佐助的額頭彈下去。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4UxzXV1Lg
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8csltjKMXv
「好痛喔！」佐助撫著發紅的額頭抱怨道。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoh2mqNVnNT
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjHS2GD6Tg
「回去吧！」鼬說。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn9m0xnunE
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsXYmr53E5
「等、等一下啦！」佐助賴皮道：「你好不容易那麼早回來，教我新的手裏劍術嘛！」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6AT4CWxMh
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPROoAzBVx9
「天要黑了，太晚回去會被罵喔！」鼬遞出手道：「走吧！」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1U7nd4R5Y
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRH5irVwopB
佐助噘著嘴，瞪著鼬的手掌好一陣子，才不情願的把手伸過去。鼬無奈的笑了笑，牽起佐助的手，回家。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSylSSz99rL
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzkDyBKV93
天候在稍晚時轉涼，隔天便下起了清冷的雨。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AMZDxgCfg
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaB4nVonXm
雨水打在窗玻璃上，淅瀝嘩啦的雨聲掩蓋了窗外的蟬聲。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhC6ZFjK8S
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkfTGBsHfn
「那隻蟬會不會被雨水淹死啊？」佐助手扶著窗檯直往外瞧，一臉焦躁不安的表情。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2omIW9pC8
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9rx1IbHfp
「牠不會有事的。」鼬邊閱讀手中的卷軸邊隨口敷衍道。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WRUzP4zbB
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKf8W3sT3L
「你怎麼知道？」佐助轉過頭問。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6DlR5ad7P
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLwAckCJNk
「昆蟲的生命力沒有你想像中那麼藐小……」鼬放下卷軸對佐助說：「你這麼擔心牠啊？」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Lw77Gw4gG
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoLLwsBcB7
「才、才不是……」佐助回過頭看向窗戶賭氣道：「我不知道啦！」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVTjvzX4rV
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oidm11SBG
佐助是真的不知道。說他完全不擔心那隻蟬，這樣講好像不完全對；就算他是真的很擔心，原因好像也不是出自於憐憫……他也不了解自己為什麼會這麼在意。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxBdHmtSBy
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8inhKgVTp7
看佐助懊惱到兩腮發紅的模樣，鼬繼續埋首書堆，嘴角勾著一抹笑。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuZAIdeIxZ
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb2mK9y897
翌日清晨，雨停了。院內的植物帶著朝露，在太陽的照耀下格外清新閃亮。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfGIw5D8kF
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtY8W4SwLeh
「嘩啦！」佐助穿著媽媽強迫他套上的黃色雨鞋，三兩步就踩過一個個小水漥，毫不在乎路面有多濕滑。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ATwTASQBA
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0g9LyUsBUY
「佐助，不要跑那麼快。」鼬徐徐跟在後頭，嘴巴上叮嚀道。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFHm5B2qX2
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwie0IyLt1
鼬的話並沒有產生效果，佐助因為心中莫名的期待反而越跑越快。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsknDNEnohx
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71gywvnaha
「刷！」衝進樹林裡，飛奔過的地方揚起小小一陣風，把腳邊的落葉掃了起來。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQhH01TNHU
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdx94DKbM4
蟬聲在佐助耳邊迴繞著，佐助小小的心噗噗的越跳越急。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmj85JXEbe
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7Q6In0Agl
「知了！知了！」突然間，一陣蟬鳴迫使佐助停下了腳步。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnjZFcRecd
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwEXWTt81F
為什麼會這樣呢？明明就都是蟬的叫聲啊！可是，總覺得這隻蟬的叫聲特別清澈嘹亮……58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlixSZngR7Y
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xpkMNusPG
「知了！知了！」蟬的每一聲唱鳴都徹底激盪佐助幼小的心靈。佐助站在原地，抬起頭往上一看……58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqHtazySsn
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJ7QfUmHTS
一隻成蟬牢抓著樹皮，穩穩的攀附在樹幹的高處自豪的鳴唱著。成蟬棲留的樹上，還留著苦無的劃痕。這一定就是前天那隻落魄的蟬啊……58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJQuZALYis
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWsGQ5heiX
當自己還在底下默默努力時，望著同伴高去的背影，心中是感到多麼無力呢？多麼想追上他們的背影，多麼想跟上他們的腳步？在悽楚的暗處含下無盡的辛酸，即使如此，不出頭的話還是會被漠視……58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKYMpRwOEb
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPr6W2x1mL7
從一開始就不曾憐惜牠，從一開始就不曾悲憫牠。因為那不是上對下的一種感情，而是平等的、相知相惜的感受。昨天的那股情感原來並不是擔心，而是託付了一切給對方……強烈的體悟在佐助的心中留下深刻的痕跡，佐助終於知道這樣的心情是什麼，卻因為年紀太小而不懂得明說，只覺心中有股難以言喻的酸潮。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CJdsFQD4f
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WX56fYu1e
當另一棵樹上的同伴傳來一聲吟唱，成蟬就快活的高鳴一句作為回覆。看到牠如此自由自在，佐助心中深深的感動著。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvoCpzYvKP
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8Q5DKmxWe
鼬不知何時來到佐助身旁。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpN22062zYO
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIo0BauBYJ
「哥哥……」佐助小聲喚道。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxt930j1z7
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSf354iiAgo
「什麼事？」鼬默不作聲一會，回道。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQhL3SdWud
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz01C7c0LTc
「蟬真的好厲害，他只靠自己就達成了夢想。可是……」佐助低頭喪氣道：「我卻只會依賴你。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqHKP0Df0b
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbWfeiJwJt
自己一點都不堅強，自己的實力真的好弱……58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWXCLrRFlT
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzN8OjG4Y5E
金風襲過，落英繽紛。大樹下，鼬輕嘆了口氣。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPw4Hq8uSv
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuKbEGs7DT
「你在說什麼啊？」鼬輕撫佐助的頭，溫柔的笑道：「你是我弟弟，不依賴我還能依賴誰？而且……」他笑道：「你一直都很努力，不是嗎？」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkiTwLCTXE
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPTvLwitLW
佐助抬起頭望著哥哥。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgeLBzkqGA
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgrRLHEDQw
每一次，只有他的話能帶給自己勇氣……58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzl8NcuwYGx
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBm4kipHEV2
每一次，他都是這樣溫柔的原諒無知的自己……58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJ0B5qEYJs
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoy1yJkkBhO
伸出手，佐助輕扯鼬的衣袖。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0mMaqBNOv
58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJrR4k4g19
「哥哥……」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwodeiNbUZt

「……謝謝你。」58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3YZYEaAhZ

佐助粉嫩的臉上，出現了久違的笑容。58Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxNELrUeTc
