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！」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY6OXcQmKG
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKeIsgnLqf
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00jw2FOWNi
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnCt1Yyx90
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAyjahv5HI
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRTEKAngvi
「把手上的劍丟掉！」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVlkHYb639
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3y5crRV7bA
風不語，只是冷冷地盯著他。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy04LayJh4X
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxkjlVl0Fq
「如果你不想讓他死的話，就把劍丟到地上！」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIs9Wvr3RT
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAi31gT1MNw
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4JkpMVULN
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtd3AbK0jM5
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfRZ1VSD1P
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLotx9l9Sl
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppXIiAmJV3
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9asl7qMFf
「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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvQ4Pd0bQ2
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtm6GtsMuJ
風緊咬著牙，握劍的力道在緊與鬆之間躊躇著。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DMKlhXWJV
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyx8RFCk5C9
現在到底該怎麼做才好…137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzGHVEHE42
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycgGAPrnC4
「放…」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTys1BNJoz
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7waMLTqfn
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。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUyTkSdO8w
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqhQeEQXQ5
「少囉唆！小心我殺了你。」威米堤凶狠地瞪著小男孩。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhe5OSuLrHk
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqUJtzXb5a
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。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvngKNz0HcW
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmEDGft82Q
了解小男孩話中有話，風對他展露笑意，以表示了解。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqD7XkJ47w
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIWzvlMBo0
「你給我閉…」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFzWtNG7gW
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCB2D5DCrB
「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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVeGblvwfm
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAVv3pwi7E
「我真的要動手了！」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1BTyCVQjl
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAI68fPCW0
「儘管動手。」風小心翼翼地一步一步逼近威米堤。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZ33Yv9cTm
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEn73lDjD6
「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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxC9MwyvbZ
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6mmAxlyLW
風不理會他的話，故作冷漠的態度。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2wTkFVw5B
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3IlTaRqN5
「不…不要過來…不要…」看到風不為所動，威米堤害怕地不斷斥退。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyhszT4m9R
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3KK3umyto
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOGS4ol4pP
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWta5aTHeq
「痛…啊－－」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xHJVtO9IN
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaS3C5wG1p
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuIwUUCdeV
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aWmxWrclA
他哀號聲逐漸被猛獸的吼叫聲淹沒，不久，便沒了聲音。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwcSdkwMRR
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1faMA5HKY
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dqXr2Fmo8
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jVSbMpqFc
「如果會害怕，就轉頭過去。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDATwBHFWr
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVMcwe1aKM
「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。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vdspknDla
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnaLeSEcXL
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dBIJpKvsf
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZNfSdrLwV
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzV9ep87L5
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVes74qqVPV
看到他神色慌張，風好奇地問，「你怎麼了？」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbMQhEzgk7
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rUYi7vCZJ
「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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyGRrQYiZR
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8joeRAXBAi
「你說吧！或許我可以幫你。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjANqSDVmr
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQksCtbfiB
「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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHXQ3jvCYb
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsX4fJf6O6
風輕閉著眼，沒有多說什麼。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUizG08yu0
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvMuJ43bXJ
「說的也是…對不起，為難你了。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6i5VQUXNpz
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsDQXNy4cc
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKudzBpI3o
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSX8U5ZaIf2
「啊－－」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi683Adouc
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUlskDWeHy
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…137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSZr7VRLZG
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxrkYlmdzo
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCYYKCcfo8
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhggJvhYW9E
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPMKCnV7bM
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDuh9zrQUJ
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxF145jY6j
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgywCy2omCI
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RVLingqur
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQfGLmfajz
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0ZA6ONpa6
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzyZoBAjL1
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhQyPUbni9
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWyyIQP5pE
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8ilaW0e8b
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMn3yvLG6l
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIk8N7WB5HZ
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0PM8ISABh
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6aQqFMJXK
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ359gcJdJys
「太好了！幸好你平安無事，我好怕你會跟他們一樣…」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46KLfkxFaE
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0gI2gx4QJ
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJDyurSPFg
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJw4RbBJyY
不久，小男孩鬆開手，揉著眼睛、紅著臉抬頭苦笑著。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5H107CsxM3
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBYxQ53dX1
「對不起！我好像太激動了。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OtLbcQjFn
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjkNVFGBMY
「沒關係。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVwSrsOL6N
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHazgd3Beos
風掏出項鍊並攤在小男孩面前。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9jsMd9z5e
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOr9wwnmXQ
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。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUjZgpHukr
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXw7r69WyV
「原來如此。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNudkk7GFh
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRaHIQV3PP
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…」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTNICMNlgF
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCY9vHwNeY
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnT09yga2d
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmivXntSFSY
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7wrSKBIr5
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…
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6v8b3Jofs
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEQH2O7iot
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…
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73sGPMuxQ4
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbWuDZ7WH7
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…
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzasAtX1SF
奇蹟…137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXiQoAcyyI
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFMUupDAvK
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlI939FqcXE
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIkZCif71e
如果不是風的出現，現在他早就被猛獸吞下肚…137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBW0i1MbGe
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WcwSVfGO9
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。」137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVO4ECvqf1
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpyR4gfNdL
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。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5jRWwPNTF
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EbsLOr6Vm
突然，風感覺一陣天搖地動，幾乎快不能站立。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKehUKc5Gn
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgqXTtrs2O
「這是怎麼回事？」修司驚慌失措地四周張望。137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnEBDggwfQ
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOrWFahFmK
「難道…」
