「你不是跟朋友喝酒嗎？怎麼回來了？」639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRNvGhNHni
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6eR4A6t5K
「本來是的……誰料有人邀請了那煩人的老頭，害我沒心情喝酒，那就借故提早離開。」639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjoG6EjDik

「你在說釣到巨型馬林魚的老人？」639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMLyM4kwNm
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0WRndqHsh
「不就是他！每天四處吹噓自己多厲害！噢！真討厭！而且……只有天曉得他是真的釣到巨型馬林魚，或是湊巧在淺灘上撿到巨型魚骨！」639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoLzd23xsG

「話雖如此，我硬是沒能相信一個瘦削老頭可以單憑個人之力戰勝鯊群，將巨魚拖回岸，更何況他使用的只是傳統手划船和魚叉、刀子、船槳之類的簡單工具！這根本不合邏輯。」639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NfFIwi4fh
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7tzRDxEUV
「邏輯的確重要，但『相信』更重要。人生總有沒能解釋的事情，硬要找答案只會苦了自己。倒不如暫且放下理智，好好欣賞勵志的故事吧。」639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkQNDFtlBl
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSW5jcd2XJ
「你講及重點了！知道我為何不喜歡那故事嗎？不就是因為那老頭硬要將得而復失的慘痛經歷講成勵志故事！」639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrBVNcYsN7
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrf5xsr6Q1
「你用這種角度去解讀那故事，的確沒有錯。不過，為人生增添一點希望、一點意義，不是挺好嗎？」639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtxKeleDTq

與母親擁抱後，我到浴室抹身，然後回睡房去，瑟縮被窩裡。無法入睡。越是想要放空，越是察覺大量零碎卻不相干的生活片段在腦袋裡晃來晃去，十分礙眼。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjCKNyBw1T
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdW0ihC3xdq
我不再強逼自己入睡，窮目盯著窗外那片無窮的漆黑，看不見天和海的交界。也許天和海已然在我不注意的時候悄悄消失，窗外的確只剩下虛空的漆黑。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pKUEzMDYS

驀地憶起早前經過碼頭時，有一遊客向我問路。他來自內陸的大城市，因聽聞有人捕獲巨型馬林魚而慕名前來拜訪。我仔細打量他。他衣著講究，談吐有禮，雙目有神，但我不喜歡他——他說羨慕我這以海為伴的漁夫，認為我的生活必定是自由自在的。聽罷，我笑而不語，沒有告訴他老頭的住處，逕自走開了。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbOCRNEiPr
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq5mWdM4xk
為何有人會喜歡海？無邊無際，看不見盡處，看不見出路，看不見任何可以掌握在手的事物。他說自由自在，我說了無意義。出海撒網，收網回航。我用魚蝦蟹的生命換錢，正如大海用我的人生去編寫它的浩瀚故事裡的一個小橋段。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeK3mESGB2s
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSylUiBkvM9
我依然如此的卑微渺小，儘管我已耗盡力氣去活好我的人生。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvSihThhU6
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXoV4y6CtO
不忿，不甘，奈何沒奈何。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡby6BU09vep
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDacOhuDER
世上沒有多少人能夠有幸獨個兒捕獲巨型馬林魚或是打敗鯊群。
月將落，日將出，我在這晦暗不明的時段展開新一天的工作。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX30zVeBvm1
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiLolAJG3y
母親勸我不要獨自出海。我不依。心裡總有一股難以言喻的鬱悶需要抒發。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrkQrDcIh7
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGT0KFhT1j
海浪微晃，船身有規律節奏地擺動，像搖籃。我的意識逐漸模糊，儘管明知這是不應該的。我應該要與更多船員一併出海，我應該要時刻留意海面情況，我應該要……其實我討厭「應該」……639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PuCKRfR4a
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81Ebqjnq80
船身倏忽劇震，我猛然驚醒，發現船尾破損，海水湧入船艙，船隻正在沉沒。發生甚麼事？我甚麼都沒有看見。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIxkLBSxmv
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPqTO8qp3A
我愣在原地，完全沒有登上救生小艇的打算——抑或是我根本沒有活下去的打算？我不清楚自己是否真的想死，只知這的確是結束沉悶生活的一個絕妙途徑。我竊喜，享受海水的冰冷，享受水壓帶來的窒息感，享受不帶個人意識的寧靜……639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdObMIER2mx
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5EpmQsWW4
「他媽的……」這是我恢復意識後的第一句說話。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlgi1q7PUH
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4Nc4yrXzh
醫生為我檢查，問我是否記得自己的遭遇。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oMjprnCAf
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBb5PYEqEU
「我登上了人魚島。」我瞥了瞥掛牆曆，開始撒謊。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOB7QGTvzS
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7T3kYxCoo
醫生笑了，再次為我檢查頭部傷勢。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnPEuixVUI
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4LTt6BDHT
「我遇上風浪，船隻沉沒了。人魚救了我，領我登島，告訴我水果和淡水的位置。我花了兩日時間用島上的巨型植物造筏，離開人魚島。臨別時，人魚送我一粒珍珠當紀念品。誰料回程路上我再遇風浪……」我繪影繪聲，比手畫腳。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdX0Mfyu3P
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSYFvvUcUV
醫生開始認真聽我說話，問我珍珠在哪。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4BIzhHanC
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7jBp262lT
「在我的褲袋裡……噢！不知道有沒有弄丟呢？」我依稀記得兩星期前，我曾在沿岸石灘撿到一粒小珍珠。我當時隨手把珍珠放在褲袋裡，然後忘記了處理它。我不肯定它是否尚在褲袋裡，但不要緊，我可以說是被海水沖走了。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaFzHtJhwP
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ8TMUsU4D
醫生轉身從抽屜裡取出一粒色澤暗啞、形狀岩巉的珍珠。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4E1GTnd9jF
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC8XqmTO9D
「噢！是它！」我當然認得這粒珍珠，就是因為它不漂亮，沒有金錢價值，我才會忘記處理它。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKWZYeqVBA
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL77Sfeas2b
醫生和護士們紛紛露出驚喜神色，說我遇上奇蹟。消息傳千里，大量媒體前來採訪我，甚至有知名作家請纓為我寫下這段奇遇。我樂意之至。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GUo6bgxJs
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxojgcDkryF
某夜，我到酒吧買醉，巧遇寂寞的老頭。他不再意氣風發，回復最當初的憔悴模樣。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oft66pG43
639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZ1wiIMPaG
我上前跟他打招呼。他會心一笑，邀我對飲。彼此談天說地，講女人、講金錢、講大海，偏偏沒有提及巨型馬林魚和人魚島。639Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYwCfJytUA
