列車停靠在月台，走道上人來人往。車箱內人聲鼎沸，乘客們七嘴八舌，訴說著自己的故事。有人是到外地工幹，有人是歸家團聚，有各自的理由，短暫的緣分讓陌路人齊集一堂。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd998T9BE45

車務員簡潔有力的聲音，一下拉住鄰近乘客的視線，眾人向違規的女士行注目禮。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnidqo12M1
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9GpFQMleY
成熟穩重的臉龐，落落長髮掛在肩膀，樸素的運動外套無阻她散發優雅的氣質。然而，身後鼓脹的大背包佔據整個座位，女士只能勉強坐於座位邊緣，手腳姿勢繃緊而不適。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwAqTnY5IE
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzj5xHw7KR
「對不起。」女士羞愧的拉低鴨舌帽，卻沒有起身糾正的打算。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmpWtYCd6X

車務員再次嗚聲勸喻前，旁邊的西裝男士站了起來，「不好意思，這是我們的通行證。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcUgvpCpyP

車務員先是一愣，接著歉意的欠身，「對不起，是我失禮了，歡迎乘搭本班列車。」
此舉立即激起所有人的好奇心，乘客個個伸長脖子，想要一探究竟。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhxbTmChNA

四周醞釀著異樣的情緒，人們交頭接耳，閒言閒語對著初白指指點點，「那個人不遵守規則。」「為甚麼她有特權？」「她是誰？」，『啪嚓』那刺耳的相機快門音效，簡直要把理智線剪斷。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQpHauV8EA

遠東市中心站，初白和勝海在此下車。出入境大堂人山人海，維持秩序的保安人員忙得不可開交。幸好馬上就有職員與兩人聯系，讓他們從特別通道離開車站。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9P1sKZIxd

當然，這是毫不作為導至的最差結果，初白和勝海遠道而來，便是為了阻止災難發生。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzwSGG4WCF
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWidGskM0V
巨物名為『野神』，於世界各地不定期出現的天災。其為被遺忘的神明，沒有教派，沒有信徒，祭祀儀式失傳，失去名字的神衹。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYvbEZW1hZ
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZqpb98N1j
野神總是無預兆的現身，並於7日後降下神罰。破壞力可能僅僅摧毀幾幢建築，亦可能將半片大陸夷為平地，並無規律及道理可言。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvQo4I6zJw
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo1F4ZV55Y
唯一的阻止方法，是由野薩滿舉行『跳大神』儀式，安撫野神的憤怒。這是關乎遠東市及鄰近地區的安危，全社會需要傾力協助，每一次都可能是最後一次的，末日祭典。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgEidTbBf3

接送車停下，之後的路只能徒步前往。路面情況擠得水泄不通，分不清人行道及馬路。喧鬧的場景接連不斷，當前景像更是多了一番戾氣。人人你推我撞怒聲叫囂，警衛於前排築起人鏈，防止人群向前推進。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKq0Hp8nw0

保安人員排成三角形護送二人前進。群眾激烈的肢體動作，怒髮衝冠的表情，即使封閉聽覺，源源不絕的負面情緒依然衝擊心靈。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4YChidGzV
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxTNeVXCFU
人們拉起橫額，字裡行間寫滿了仇恨，直斥其罪業，仿佛初白是惡貫滿盈的大罪人。
面對洶湧的浪潮，任何辯解及真理皆無意義。初白唯有壓著帽子低頭，專心行走腳下的道路，僅此而已。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtl95xCUE99
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAjKyPJsrT
一行終於突破人群，謾罵之聲從背後遠去，眼前的景況煥然一新。寧靜的街道與數百米外的繁囂大相徑庭，人行道上人影寥落，空空如也的車輛停在路中心，商店燈火通明卻不見人蹤。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6acrTBZHuJ
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLy2598bja
無需過問，初白已熟知一切的前因後果。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwotDTPaAU
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Abu2GOTRD
跳大神儀式的成功與否事關重大，為確保中途不出意外，最有效的做法是對整個社區進行圍封。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxUUHVP2l6
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05dUQJkZ9I
有關當局限定居民於10小時內全面撤離，倉卒的安排引起當地人不滿。野神開眼的危機近在咫尺，根本沒有時間讓雙方溝通商量，偏見和誤解油然而生，包容和忍讓漸漸被磨滅。最後雙方都認為對方有錯在先，拒絕互相理解並訴諸暴力，導向大規模衝突的結果。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlI24XgS46Y

一行來到廣場前，數十個帳棚駐紮於此。兩人被帶到最大的帳棚裡，幾張長桌拼攏一起，座位上全都是老氣橫秋的臉孔。此桌齊集政商界代表，會議馬拉松要開始了。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuEMK6hUKm

翌日下午，會議告一段落。聽取神學家的意見，及跟商界代表商量，初白擬定了跳大神的流程，提交報告書後，各界人士開始分工行動。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfELfTY24C3
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7fFeRBp4q
從野神的外觀分析，白色的外表象徵純正和光明，羽翼象徵保護和庇祐，祂極有可能是來自萍芽地區的『守護神』。儀式必須強調繁榮和穩定，向神明傳達人間的和平及美好，便能使野神滿足離開。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uVrBBhzTc
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkeDOTqBzg
搭建樓高400米的鐵塔，將舞台送到野神面前。樂團於舞台底下奏樂，以野薩滿初白為首，率領10名舞者跳舞及以萍芽語誦唱經文，6名鼓手擊鼓，另外20人攜帶法器伴舞。
跳大神的舞蹈分三階段進行，節奏動作逐漸提升，高潮部份發放煙火助興。最後環節以誦經送神，讓野神回到原本的世界，儀式便完滿結束。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1fPKXuzkN
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59wibdeV7b
會議過後，初白前往練舞帳棚。跟舞蹈組的老臉孔們問好，經驗老道的舞者已經開始排練。現場斷斷續續的奏起民族樂聲：嗩吶、堂鼓、水琴、鈴鐺，伴隨和聲誦唱經文，場面挺陰森詭異的。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CP6AyJ7HS
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1Q4SjipwN
但是這獨特的氛圍卻帶給初白安心感。比起正襟危坐地跟滿臉橫肉的政客和商人開會，渾灑汗水唱歌跳舞比較適合自己。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAwoSMKZW5
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGxUQDqLGY
「已經練習2小時了，接著要會見官員，交代工作進度。」勝海說。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfX58wbFwE

「知道啦，只是想鬧一下罷了。」初白接過毛巾擦汗，羽翼朝下呈放鬆狀態，「話說回來，那邊那個女孩是誰？生面口，之前未見過的。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtRrii5ywu
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn5yqXpNBi
勝海順著指頭方向望去，「短頭髮，水靈靈大眼睛，像花栗鼠一樣活潑可愛的少女。她的名字是楚可，電視台力捧的新人偶像。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKQ847gNRY

「是的，下班後會立即去找她要簽名。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPwvewSUHy
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY5KaxHkLz
「容我冒犯地說，她跳得挺差的。動作一直跟不上節拍，音準問題更無法忽視。讓她參予跳大神，一定惹起神怒。術業有專攻，重要的儀式不容有失，之後的會議我會跟上頭說把她調走。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAtwhs1Sif
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UqFc0kuZB
「辦不到呢。」勝海說，「電視台是大金主，舞台搭建、電子器材、服裝、樂器、後勤人手，全部都由電視台贊助，我們只能順應他們的附加條件。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgddr1xarc3
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWRxzaXrb2
「上面的大人物覬覦著野神經濟呢。」初白將毛巾扔到椅子，伸展羽翼抖了一下，「我要對她進行重點訓練，希望能趕上進度。幫我取消後面的排程，打來的無謂電話全部都不接。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZBnosinU1

236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvb7U05uNU8
一派輕鬆的楚可形成對比，「上台跳唱對體力有相當要求，所以我每天都有晨練習慣。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXZqjUCliM

「我小瞧了新時代的偶像，看來你需要的並不是體力訓練。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMkz17yiiR

二人回到出發點，勝海坐在花槽邊等侯她們，為二人遞上清水和毛巾。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLG8CN5MRtP
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPh0Xs1X7h
「謝謝勝海先生，讓你的工作量加倍了，實在萬分抱歉。」楚可鞠躬致謝。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HKqYAWaai

「沒關係的，能夠為偶像服務，是我的榮幸。」勝海示範真正的九十度鞠躬。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRRl7VTNGY
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡam2tF47hOy
楚可點頭微笑，由心而發的感染力令初白不禁胸前一暖。休息期間，楚可並沒有就此閒著，她打開手機文本，望著滿滿的經文，照著標示的英語拼音朗讀。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIqdFOZUYs
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHUmGkwdor
「嘴唇也要動起來，舌頭要頂到牙齒。」初白耐心指導，楚可亦虛心受教，可是她的發音問題始終難以改善。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADbZISwNpm
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef0vEphyBk
到底那兒出錯了？天上的神明沒有這份耐性，初白實在時間無多，必須在今日內下定決意，是否將楚可從儀式中調走。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlAnASlDeW
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcguXKh8fTU
「果然口音的問題一時三刻改不了。」勝海說。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7jF5yKvZx
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv57FxYPglp
「你說口音？楚可是那裡出身的？」初白說。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqt2msyezs
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSig224AjbT
楚可變得有點靦腆，「我出身於朝夏地區，母語是朝夏陽語。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8mG0Slxe8
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MKYAYLaAg
「當真？你的粤語說得超好，完全聽不出口音耶？」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryzw87Iu0W

初白低頭沉思，想了一會，一個點子閃過。她拿出手機滑動，然後把螢幕遞出，「請讀出這段經文。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnF802joxBA

楚可呆呆的望著二人，連自己都被變化嚇到。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jUhb56TnJ
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV56sFI5sIA
遠東市上空的野神，是屬於萍芽地區的地方神，楚可的母語朝夏陽語屬於萍芽語的分支，初白將文本上的英語拼音稍作更改，楚可的口音反而使她更精準地讀出經文原本的發音。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTH1eFRNAQK
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bnn6DxjZ7
初白展開笑容，先前的煩惱一掃而空，「中大獎了，就算電視台現在反悔，我也絕對不會放你走。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAYE8OcMtO
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ODTyfO5qw
「謝謝你，初白小姐！」楚可忽然蹲下去，把二人嚇一大跳。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk19YX1sjjd
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TpMmaxq6j
她的聲音一度哽咽，連續吸了好幾口氣平息情緒，之後才緩緩開口，「得知要參加儀式後，我的心情一直忐忑不安。看到舞蹈組的大家都如此專業，只有我一個外行人在拖後腿。原本覺得真的不行了，打算跟營運方提出退出儀式。現在我終於有用武之地，沒有放棄真的太好了！」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w82szzuwD
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQB0IFfsb2
「總之，先起來吧。」勝海上前攙扶，「請把感動的眼淚留在儀式成功之後。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9dHFPM0Sl
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ2Br8bdpF
「一定會涕泗縱橫，到時請幫我遞紙巾。」楚可破涕為笑，她站起來，舉頭望天，那觸及天際線的鐵塔，像舉起手臂膜拜神明，「鐵塔快要竣工了，明天我們就能在塔頂彩排。當全人類目標一致，團結的力量無所不能。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbhuMvtKKG
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxN7mvAU8W
隔日，事與願違。在多名官員施壓下，當局開放封鎖區10小時，讓居民回到住所收拾細軟。大量平民涌入社區，情況一度失控，交通幹道被人流堵塞，影響鐵塔建材的送達。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡio7Nv7p1A6
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi7ZCcu0c9
傍晚，承建商指責平民累事，激起民憤引起軒然大波。之後發言人被記者拍到私下發表種族歧視言論，被贊助商火速切割，抽離資金，鐵塔工程宣佈爛尾。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWNl2wXj0i

練舞帳棚內，舞蹈組徹夜加緊排練。
鐵塔被迫竣工，成果未如理想，高度只有原來的三分二，舞台位置由原本平視變成被野神俯視。儀式的舞蹈必須作出調整，加入更多動態元素，舞者需要來回走動排列出不同圖案，以增加儀式的觀賞性。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Snzl2h3pd
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzojwxoTM6
誦經環節亦要大改，為減少對舞者的負擔，誦經部份全部交由初白和楚可負責，讓發音最正宗的兩人輪流誦唱。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT404ctIieE
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLuqL7KhAt
楚可需要重新背誦經文，由初白親自進行指導。可是，在這個關鍵時刻，楚可卻不在狀態，練習頻頻出錯。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWeonrwW4L
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MOwhQFWXg

阿七攤開掌心揮揮手，「網絡霸凌根本是天災，不是人力可以對抗的。楚可嘗試講道理，結果被瘋狂跳針。那些令人作嘔的尖酸留言，讓我不禁懷疑手機是不是接通了平行時空。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAeU9C2v3n

阿七重重的唉聲嘆氣，「我們當然知道有網絡黑子，楚可出道時便已有覺悟。可是，沒想到網上抹黑你的人，並非十個八個，而是成千上萬。楚可她們沒有做錯任何事，倒不如說在拯救這個城市，可是每個地方人都有人扯後腿。政府決策朝令夕改，電視台又諸多要求，承建商試都沒試就說放棄，暴民更是蠻不講理。」236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eVDNSp7Nv

夜色之中，半空的野神發生變化。翼狀外殼大幅度伸展，中間的眼睛張開，露出紅色『瞳孔』。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HR5HphwrC

新生的嬰神在半空漂浮，瑟縮身體安然酣睡。然而危機未有解除，即使形態改變，野神仍然會於1日後降下神罰。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eoOZ6dCMu
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMra8su9Ns
比原本的母神更棘手，嬰神偶爾會甦醒移動，位置不斷改變，鐵塔的作用形同虛設。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNS1xy5X3R
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUW4WDizjnW
根據推算，嬰神會在南部近郊最後一次甦醒並降下神罰。值得慶幸，當地有一幢樓高數百的大樓，天台位置非常適合舉行儀式。
更加幸運的是，大樓是電視台舊辦公室，電視台持有全面控制權。決策全開綠燈，籌備工作如火如荼。
雖然儀式又要大改，但目的轉變為安撫嬰神，舞蹈動作放慢，表現方式為更平和。工作量大副減少，使進度重來也能及時趕上。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuGTjq5T6B

終於，在最後的夜晚。
跳大神儀式開始：
嬰神從睡夢中甦醒，張開眼睛俯瞰都市。城市漆黑一片，沒有半點燈火。嬰神環視四周，探索著這個虛無的世界。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYhGTBluep
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUPNAwzPyx
大樓天台亮起燈光，籠罩著柔和且帶著神秘感的深藍，吸引嬰神的注意。衪轉頭望向那方，一些黑色小點在動來動去。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyvIyvPD9t

236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0JpdCzeJO
初白誦唱經文，歌聲溫柔而悠遠，仿若從遠古的山巒和江河中飄來，悠揚中夾雜著淡淡的惆悵與無盡的渴望。
她橫開雙臂，踏著輕快的碎步。旋身，打轉，衣服上的流蘇隨之而躍動。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeu8Rm94R5
236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLMwC5JAkK
舞者們輕盈地從左右兩邊加入，他們的衣裳以鮮艷的紅、金為主，刺繡著祥雲與花卉圖案，隨著舞動閃爍流光。舞者們擺動水袖，步伐流水行雲，如飛燕掠過湖面，如仙鶴展翅高翔。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM8S4HgkUC

舞者聚集於前排，順著歌聲起舞，肢體動作變得激烈。蹲踞，挺身，拍掌，腳步維持穩定碎步。時而旋轉，時而跳躍，動作優雅而精準，仿佛是歌聲的視覺化。
新的舞者們躍入舞台，身纏腰鼓，敲打明快節奏。舞蹈動作生動靈活，腰鼓綁著束帶在身邊遊走，當刻在身前，轉瞬又換到背後，飛到頭頂轉圈，又落下從胯下穿過，腰鼓仿佛有生命一樣。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTAmq4oMRK

初白再次回到舞台中心，手持法器，跳起古老的舞步。楚可的歌聲拔地而起，將儀式推向高潮。鼓樂喧天，舞者們猛然一躍，分散成三人一組，合作做出高難度動作，托舉，拋接，多人倒立。如萬馬奔騰，如驚濤駭浪，目不暇给，精彩絕倫。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3hUwm4in1

神聖而莊嚴的樂聲陪伴下，初白慢步到前排，揮舞法器誦讀經文，代表人類牽上敬意。整個畫面宛如一幅靜動結合的水墨畫，既有樂聲的律動，又有畫作的靜美。236Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn84VYqhChE
