經過了幾年時間，丁開始習慣工作，習慣看別人的臉色過日子，習慣沒有白澤的日子。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshZj6leLWv
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeBSEUlv1S
不會回來了吧？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7xOOaKrif
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPfcRIo3V0
從村人們的交談中，丁不得不接受這樣的事實。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCz8drFrSk
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNANvIZMOS
在覺悟的那天蒙頭大哭了一夜，接下來他就怎麼也流不出淚來，投身於忙碌的工作當中。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQDZjqn1uo
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfESrPBF1bc
他可以在忙碌中忘了許多事，忘了他過去的名字，忘了他小時候親暱叫著的名字，忘了他曾經那樣幸福的活在另一個人的寵溺中，甚至忘了該怎麼笑。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTDrYDkkm1
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvDvMxPGBH
不知不覺，他似乎已經很久沒有笑過了。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt39IBWl7CH
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjarElYS2gO
他伸手摸上自己變得下垂的嘴角，然後在四顧無人後拿出白澤唯一遺留下的物品。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEERvPCPe7F
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpeO0uTXI3
黃色的金屬雕刻著他不了解的紋路，鮮紅的繩結綁成他無法理解的構造，他唯一記得的似乎只剩下如夢般朦朧的甜美回憶及這東西不能被其他人得手的念頭。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB95wUWKQ9
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRjLTJsTX2
只是有時看著這東西會覺得他還能繼續努力下去。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZt2VwyDBaZ
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBmbmgqinm
或許他心底還是期待著的吧？期待那個被自己淡忘的人能夠前來迎接自己。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQI3dXWNVp
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NabKArRYz
嘲笑著自己那無謂的心情，丁將紅繩重新藏回懷中，然後繼續投身彷彿無止無盡的工作。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqAa4kux0o
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCWEWanAg3
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpMZNxQygj
「還不下雨…！獻上活祭品吧！」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVtrBrrgbF
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83Tt84idC3
某日夜晚，在丁進入夢鄉前，他隱約聽到如此的聲音。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMmyNfA35J
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zY5WcmOGU
啊啊，活祭品，是指活生生被獻給神明的動物嗎？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZM7G2HQTK
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJQDPt2Df9
「我不要當祭品。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55rKG3AzDA
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmu9VJpvKZ
嗯？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrb37Rkfc0
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgQFbyKWFI
「我也不要。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPKsgKpfS9
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVPd4EGL2Y
不是用動物嗎？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGZI3Q3zWe
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCmFYYzxv7
「丁呢？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rQZU0vdEl
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuR8BI2hBvO
！79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUm5AdvsIC
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6qjhripkX
「對了，還有丁吶。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClkHXZ0ave
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoQoPn666u
我要被交給神明？在祭壇上活生生地被殺死嗎？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoITcfVPiu
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjHSqkeqmM
不，這個村裡的人應該不至於這麼做，頂多把我放在那裏直到餓死吧？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdn6DSxhL3m
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RZRTyWgXY
……回收屍體的時候，這東西會被看到的。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiW1OLO0bSS
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaSs2aORdG
聽著聲音漸弱，等到火光熄滅，丁坐起身，輕巧的離開床舖。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneWEhsZlAG
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidxjJBv8ed
吃了他們那麼多年的飯，讓我回報這條命是無所謂，但是，只有這個絕不讓給任何人。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhi3K1cUre
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTiU0D3Hur
順著月光及星光，從小生長在野外的丁熟悉的行走於黑暗之間，終於在深夜走到了距離村莊不算遠卻足夠隱密的，他以前的家。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOU9feMwSJj
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVULgTK4x7D
當他以前很累很累的時候，就會偷偷跑來這裡，緬懷著已經不記得的那個人。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RTviowuxk
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34Kgt0QKIC
丁面無表情地想著，坐在樹洞外，手上拿著一根沒有很纖細的樹枝。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw77DoA7BeU
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfEFavEjsv
將樹枝插在樹洞前的土壤，丁的嘴角微微上揚。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqshSkhaoex
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJjzH7loFn
感謝你小時候的照顧。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWRrLknKAu
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2htv5K1O2J
默念著，丁將一直珍藏的寶物纏繞在樹枝上頭。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkzV1IBmwM
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZfvBb3pNz
大概明天，我就會被告知這件事了。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLCJSm6lbg
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaw3mEb4omP
我，一直都......79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMUsHA9dYA
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tbMTaRsDM
嗤笑自己的情感，丁勾起嘴角，然後站起身。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeeWZgvczf
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXQbelmJN6
永別了，以後就再也見不到面了。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8naMlLQkBR
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0p8PCLDCR
想著，丁覺得眼睛有些酸澀，揉揉眼，他還是踏著步伐回到村落。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtsNfzMaKv
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciTBeRGtRK
以後就真的，可以不用再抱著希望，一日復一日的等下去了。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRA3WEcjSm
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuibaHZyjtq
抹殺掉自己心中那份期待，丁冷靜地想著。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1J6LEonloI
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xl1VGWakm
近十年都不曾出現過的人，是不可能在最後一刻出現的。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjH3aGCYw3
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdle5MV3Yk
這樣就好，這樣就可以了。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYhUKvoFma
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7Tnu4z44q
難得的度過不是一覺到天亮的夜晚，丁這夜幾乎沒睡，就算意識模糊也會立刻夢到那些充滿希望的夢境而驚醒。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbW8YBxvv9
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0kil9CrKF
他不想要再一次的抱著希望，因此他只能自己去接受絕望。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Dwr2dROXf
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiKtSJja6q
為了這些村民，為了這些養活自己的村民，為了這些奴役自己的村民……79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPmjAMZ1s0
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKe8YYDzkp
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCAFW63Jaz
「丁，你起床了嗎？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhM4qJ6xM0y
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9fa5uWpwe
「……是。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdplOoszKX
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIUkJmVxYx
「我們有些話想跟你說。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqH6fNoJlTs
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQo7Azzu7W
不是一個人，就算想逃也逃不掉，對吧？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrVAiFw36b
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0Ki5c8wpr
丁在心裡想著，一邊聆聽村長那一長串的理由，然後點頭。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDVzzyyS0t
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKKdDR4TEf
「我願意。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnCceyYRW2
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobptSgCqze
然後在眾人鬆了一口氣的情況下，被包圍著前往祭場。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAl7iBZi1fm
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIJP9L1wt7
「換上這個。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTr00AKXQdy
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMOgl7War9
「戴上這個。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAVcoqZYA1
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaR0LUGMNW
「還有這個。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgx3bSTsyl
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9hbbuxVmO
「喂，把那個拿來。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaT3AIbbyw
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxKAxJmRC0
七手八腳地趕在夜晚前把東西弄好，丁端坐在祭壇上，依照村長的說法雙手合十，等待神明的降臨。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19uA7XNuKS
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsAivjiyvg
「不要恨我啊，丁。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEAYs66Oa0
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡat5AUf1ulZ
村長說著，也朝著他的方向拜了一拜。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVF1axTlVx
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Euqp4MHNq
「沒事的，如今的時代只有這個方法可以穩定人心，我不會怨恨的。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomzR5t02RZ
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApnb5AnLxl
沒有看向任何人，丁把視線放在山的某處，他猜想應該是他過去居住的地方。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzUasIk27x
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxaHK3NMKm
而村人們你看看我、我看看你，便在陸續道謝後離開了祭壇。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4kgYG23NS
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjk7z7ygA4
「…若是有黃泉這種東西，我一定要讓村裡的人嚐嚐死後被我制裁的滋味……」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGIUxtXIKa
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQZJJcMbnr
丁小聲的碎念，像是要告訴自己，也像是在偷偷的警告村人。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVekRjurQw
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCthxlpRI5
「永別了，請多保重。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6gtIhBz7H
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHN5FnD1ht
如果沒有黃泉存在的話。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbwNw60e7F
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyMhWY4fbx
丁維持著端正的姿勢，直到確認村人們走遠。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNvVmB1LHa
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3MO7qmy2p
神明長什麼樣子呢？真的會有神明嗎？真的是神明嗎？真的有神嗎？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzV4NP2IqP
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71mBSKaXbO
經過一整天的空腹洗禮，丁已經感覺不到餓意，喝了放在祭壇上的酒後便臥倒在祭壇上。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpEZDTNzX6
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjntvm1l8Q
為什麼，為什麼沒有來接我？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgGhpia6fj
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMSE8tASph
因為我忘了你叫我的名字？還是我忘了你的樣子？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPE9rk0ISY
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKZhMweBO7
你真的，拋棄了我嗎？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUzdhye16G
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq9L9vKu2z
再也，見不到面了。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchBos3yz0h
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuecdPTlLDe
永遠。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsr98urSbwC
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnANNF5V6S
完全放下希望，原來是那麼難受的事嗎？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD35Ic811fD
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqBRucWpII
乾澀的眼睛流出淚來，看著天上閃閃的繁星，丁又狠狠地把村子的人詛咒了一遍。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrKNfbYilS
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj7qtaQ46J
說不定，再多等幾天他就會出現了啊！79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxmcvQstjk
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzP43AUiHJ7
悲憤交加，周圍丁看不到的鬼火逐漸被他的恨意吸引過來。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqQy5JzrLR
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FXNLaQgbc
感覺被風吹的冰冷的身體瞬間像燒起來一般灼熱，丁在瞬間以為是神明的到來。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXPUnQGSrW
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyq03DjRWv
是鬼喔。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK72V5Mfqe
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxXWVe76hw
腦海裡有個聲音說著。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwdflIv0hv
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95ZclKILVi
因為跟鬼火結合，你以後就是鬼了。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHL9HpXwyDQ
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf19PHRhvi
跟神明完全無緣的詞彙。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXxKG5BypO
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9QrBfxZ8n
是鬼的話，就可以去到黃泉狠狠的懲戒那些人了吧？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQ5dCc7Npf
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAij2UL8aS
從祭壇上坐起身，丁張開眼睛。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUQwgzb6TR
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwm08OfInn
我是鬼，就算真的有神明他也不會想要這樣的祭品的。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4xIYT9amn
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKg3nqGS8f
然後離開祭壇。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyMPGJuSbr
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxuVlxkZQh
就連那個人，也不會要我吧？79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosgm0mdlV6
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobImQuQhuH
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6USFVGhVJS
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qnwlC74V8
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3MrWvGSVE
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOr3Lab4GH
因為，我已經不是人了。
