將目光轉回到威米堤身上，風提起劍，做出攻擊的姿勢，「接下來，該你了！」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMYo1I3IVh
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0c4PwzI11w
威米堤驚恐地東張西望。身邊已經沒人可以阻擋風，偏偏離他較近的護衛全在外頭，想到這，臉色不自覺鐵青起來。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNa3oebvVVY
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgAO5vcEQv
突然，威米堤瞄到平台上的小男孩，一股念頭油然而生，既然橫豎都是死，不如就將計就計。隨即衝向前，並將藏在衣袖裡的小刀架在小男孩的頸脖上。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEMSRMXOQM
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTREY5CzWPj
「把手上的劍丟掉！」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmeYQUxG7L
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7BQiwGGM3
風不語，只是冷冷地盯著他。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6DGHVeKis
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WqjDJ3pNw
「如果你不想讓他死的話，就把劍丟到地上！」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvruAzSENP
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFWCMd9Uqp
緊握手中的劍，風心裡十分猶豫。倘若讓他逃出去救援，自己是無法對其他人下手。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UyG9VvVO7
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRiz6XnLYV
據童年的記憶，這裡的衛兵跟奴隸絕大部分都是威米堤擄回來的。長相好的，不是被賣掉，要不就是留在城內當奴婢；體格好的，就指派為衛兵；至於瘦弱又長相不起眼的，就成為階下囚的奴隸。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3Vn5vx6Gt
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmi1G4cxIyw
即使有血緣關係的親人，也會因為階級不同，過著天差地別的生活，倘若替對方求情，求情者與被求情者都會被威米堤無情殺害。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVviwL897j1
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xY8qpxzov
「再不把劍放下，就別怪我不客氣…」威米堤往小男孩的脖子輕劃一刀，火紅的鮮血立刻流出。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAuPvY1Lqq
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTzUcHmOfY
風緊咬著牙，握劍的力道在緊與鬆之間躊躇著。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZcuigiMdu
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIg3nzSyDG1
現在到底該怎麼做才好…157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaTnW4bknQ
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGVw8hh7Se
「放…」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrJCydPEF9
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKR3MMXKRGS
小男孩猛然大喊，硬是壓過威米堤的聲音，「我跟他毫不相干，就算你殺了我，他也不會覺得怎樣。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsfLPtWqlZ
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmv3FbIwa2N
「少囉唆！小心我殺了你。」威米堤凶狠地瞪著小男孩。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6N9DmZoGG
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tR6803TyC
小男孩幾度向風眨眼暗示，「你要逃－－最好趁現在，否則在你殺了我之後，他馬上就會就衝上來殺你。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NOTI4yTeN
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGILKVvX1e
了解小男孩話中有話，風對他展露笑意，以表示了解。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOc8YrsHVY
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogqQGgbgqC
「你給我閉…」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOkpnz49rx
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YKDKZb88n
「沒錯！就算他“死掉”…也跟我無關。」風故意加重語氣，嚴肅的神情，再加上不夾任何情感的口吻，讓人有所畏懼。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxR96m3zuU
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalZUYxg54C
「我真的要動手了！」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2b25EpfR2
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfqSmGNROa
「儘管動手。」風小心翼翼地一步一步逼近威米堤。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflc3ob6sKW
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡird1x23zTX
「你不要過來！否則我真的殺了他！」威米堤慌了，舉起小刀往風的方向亂揮亂砍。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb3Zwsihow
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgpjnRBbD4
風不理會他的話，故作冷漠的態度。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkzIPmkjEA
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCHKjDulaW
「不…不要過來…不要…」看到風不為所動，威米堤害怕地不斷斥退。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3SXYa1k0h
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz5tvDg4ML
風不斷往前進，逼得威米堤一腳跨出平台外，底下的猛獸吼叫聲隨之傳來。眼看機不可失，小男孩猛然咬住威米堤的手。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0eKnxVwgc
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8J1tyRa2HH
「痛…啊－－」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiILhSLyrpp
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYY2Utntiz
被這一咬，威米堤一個重心不穩，整個人跌落直下。掉落的同時，幾隻猛獸早已爭先恐後地張大嘴巴，好隨時準備享用食物。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ06CblJHk6
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMWkpf07Wx
他哀號聲逐漸被猛獸的吼叫聲淹沒，不久，便沒了聲音。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnVd68jt9B
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxI3E28JjYE
對於這種血腥畫面，風早已麻痺，甚至是平常不過之事。看到身旁的小男孩，弱小的身軀不斷顫抖。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡab3tuGkS7Z
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEUBEdmZld
「如果會害怕，就轉頭過去。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePNyl8xSGB
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKScZkvarn
「我不要緊…」小男孩別過頭，笑容中夾雜著悲傷，「這種畫面我已經看過好幾遍，我的同伴全都被威米堤這樣處決。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcyoOOO8Or
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUMuJMqnOm
放眼望去，底下遍地屍骨，風明白地閉上眼。所有人就如同威米堤那般，被猛獸咬扯、撕裂、啃食，任憑誰都會難過。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KvZ3LSJLF
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfXQTeU5Ee
突然，一條銀製項鍊，從威米堤身上掉出，在彈跳幾下後，落在前方不遠處。小男孩睜大雙眼，忐忑不安的情緒全寫在臉上。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0n1O1VpCRd
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWxADt48WV
看到他神色慌張，風好奇地問，「你怎麼了？」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUxk76Td7a
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgR83IgzPit
「這個…我…」小男孩想拿回項鍊，但底下猛獸凶狠，絕對是必死無疑。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AY6DpbjCi
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZedOJ63HT
「你說吧！或許我可以幫你。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IujeWhoxb
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFK8ZCcPyj
「我想要回那條項鍊…」小男孩囁嚅地開口，手指顫抖地指向前方的光點，畢竟想拿回來簡直是天方夜譚。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVFx3GAPQI
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dUqa6m1Be
風輕閉著眼，沒有多說什麼。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEhlvyVdYn
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJYqn92wJu
「說的也是…對不起，為難你了。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgMX8LVYNQ
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorrMMovOX2
就在小男孩垂頭喪氣時，風猛然睜開雙眼，想也不想地跳下猛獸群中。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfsPtL01B4
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoAtUnXIkB
「啊－－」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcnfH8aTXh
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8R4KwWLawB
這個舉動嚇壞了小男孩。他什麼都沒問，就這樣奮不顧身地跳下，況且彼此還是不認識的陌生人…157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofnvGjk7dV
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdekmiq8VQ2
所有猛獸看見有人跳下來，各各是爭先恐後地張大嘴巴。牠們擁有獅子的外型，除了頭部，其餘全長滿了刺；擁有一尺長的獠牙，張大嘴巴時，足以吞食一個人。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhG9z74OM2
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ58V8mnOn
風拔起劍，雙手一握，筆直地刺穿猛獸的嘴巴，隨即左手壓住牠的頭部，輕盈俐落地翻身往後跳，接著右手順勢刺中旁邊猛獸的上顎。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EVWbOC0rM
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexMhUpUHws
所有猛獸看到同伴倒下，全都壓低身體往後退，發出共鳴的低吼聲，看著風挺直著背脊，瀏海底下那雙凌厲的眼，散發出不可小覷的氣勢，誰也沒勇氣敢踏入他的領域。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQ9ypVGV7U
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2g5pifcVl
望著被嚇壞的猛獸，風明瞭牠們絕對是不會再出手，就大膽地邁步而出，往亮點的方向走去，所有猛獸見到，紛紛退到一旁，與風保持一段距離。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKMsMsajPI
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVMOhnc7vl
走近亮點，風撿起項鍊，略看了一會。純銀的材質，外型比銀幣還要大上三、四倍，中央鑲嵌著藍寶石，周圍雕刻一些複雜的花紋。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA039w7e9N
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8coDBXTXTl
看到最後，風赫然驚覺，但立刻收起詫異的神情，將項鍊收起來。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMdr0iu6As
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGGTVTcIUC
風環繞四周，找出逃離這裡的辦法，只是，除了高聳的石牆，就沒其他工具可利用，可見當初設計這座高牆時，就沒想過讓人有機會逃出去。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Bv1VUmol2
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncSxX0l8W9
再度仔細觀察，這回，風注視到高牆上堆疊的石塊凹凸不平，利用這些特色，攀爬石塊而上。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqCNvMV5Ih
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLzZQau0Jj
才剛站好，小男孩就毫無預警地衝向前抱住風，顫抖的身軀，像是哭泣又像是害怕。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGp5fKjW2B
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWOHCxbGFo
「太好了！幸好你平安無事，我好怕你會跟他們一樣…」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2px7BZg15
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mYlzJAiPd
被這麼擁抱，風有些愣住，看著他弱小的身軀，總算明白為何要幫助他，因為他們的遭遇是如此相像，也渴望被救。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMiG9UdLMg
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9m23T7Uoxy
不久，小男孩鬆開手，揉著眼睛、紅著臉抬頭苦笑著。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWhMtIe727
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tj3GZRRiH
「對不起！我好像太激動了。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnZoaZPjga
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Dv6gGSihL
「沒關係。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5VTPsuq6F
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRn2VxbCjES
風掏出項鍊並攤在小男孩面前。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKkcEydKEi
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnyZKnKgz8
一看到項鍊，小男孩激動地將項鍊收進懷裡，隨後眼神空洞，緩緩地說著，「當我還是襁褓中的嬰孩時，就被威米堤擄到這裡，並讓我由里特阿姨扶養。里特阿姨曾告訴我，這條項鍊原本是戴在我身上，但威米堤認為價值不凡就將項鍊拿走…所以這是我找尋親生父母的唯一信物。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwU9dtZ0eqp
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVu4GP4QZth
「原來如此。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztlSEWqJOU
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jJHgvA8V6
小男孩攤開手，看著手中的項鍊，喃喃地說著，「原本…我是想跟隨里特阿姨死去…」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFJwnorVoE
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUAWLcivhsp
小男孩閉上雙眼，仰天回憶著里特阿姨，她每次總是面帶笑容對他說話。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFJBU1tAg4
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7E2fqbyDqp
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTxnprYyaE
不要替我難過了，每個人總有一天都會離開這個世界，如果我就這麼死掉，那也是我的盡頭…
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGip4lNE1u
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bwGsRaFfs
修司，我心愛的兒子，扶養你…我真的很幸福，我不希望你連自己的幸福都還沒得到，就這樣走到盡頭…
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmV9uOOcR1
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvRUVnkWjE
你要好好的活著，要相信！越是有活下去的意念，奇蹟越會在你身上發生…
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPyff3VPIj
奇蹟…157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzINEFSh3x
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XtmUpAIYY
修司奮力睜開眼睛，抬頭望著風，他的髮色與里特阿姨有些相似，宛如溫柔照耀世界的太陽。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIYMzEhO5g
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeQDI6dDdw
如果不是風的出現，現在他早就被猛獸吞下肚…157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTXEZSLXmx
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMwDcJMXM5
望著所有骸骨，修司雙手緊握成拳，小聲地唸著，「里特阿姨，以及所有的同伴，我會連同你們的份一起活下去。」157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNITFTxOeis
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLpyNaTQIv
風雖然聽不見他在說什麼，不過從他眼神看得出，有著非比尋常的堅定意志。風微微地低著頭，讓瀏海遮住雙目，嘴角露出淡淡的笑容。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0oKJSMg9d
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaiR4M98kZ
突然，風感覺一陣天搖地動，幾乎快不能站立。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAODkfbcB5w
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQO89dKR0aa
「這是怎麼回事？」修司驚慌失措地四周張望。157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3rodeKc3O
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Xky0R5dT0
「難道…」
