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！」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbERVx3xOv4
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgKN2aZeU2
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrmdtodGjQ
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqgSj4o1be
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAWzuLFaIN
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoHuqrc4Dn
「把手上的劍丟掉！」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9tpCpTOsP
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlc2hVYRQWM
風不語，只是冷冷地盯著他。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUkO8qP9rK
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDCPwR7A3J
「如果你不想讓他死的話，就把劍丟到地上！」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yLuvGg1xh
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FbtqPMueW
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaFvFfy4qt
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkoteOHRsB
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0j0OWtJDH
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAd2EX8r2N
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7P18T2A9pq
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQ3MkQ2Mdy
「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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tMHd1VTxx
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZWq3wkz9o
風緊咬著牙，握劍的力道在緊與鬆之間躊躇著。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUIJWFSWmN
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIR52iXybf5
現在到底該怎麼做才好…119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIECbG2lAOc
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLd7B9vcLAM
「放…」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNpEp45S9F
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdZoGbGYRS
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。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6g4fSE90HZ
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNhUlxtQqS
「少囉唆！小心我殺了你。」威米堤凶狠地瞪著小男孩。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAG0gXym9L
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sV0L1N6BP
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。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvPvmyXQma
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJNDhrFEli
了解小男孩話中有話，風對他展露笑意，以表示了解。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4QUczlwYb
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfK9BjdZFy
「你給我閉…」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiLKwlRLOv
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaXvYwWTlu
「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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuQi95UzDM
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPAVjdRHGs
「我真的要動手了！」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7iHNXXnhf
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzLWbU6AyB
「儘管動手。」風小心翼翼地一步一步逼近威米堤。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTlaE2f6by
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVMTiDFmqg
「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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4QjR4oa6L
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAM4XUTlQu5
風不理會他的話，故作冷漠的態度。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqg1Iao9Ggb
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAyThJznDq
「不…不要過來…不要…」看到風不為所動，威米堤害怕地不斷斥退。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYq8YhCwx3
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYS4imcCspL
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CIXjCnA7q
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktBg7ydkEz
「痛…啊－－」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObR5MshgY8
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzb9NfV0a9
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJhFTQdYVJ
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg9ZVgFDQr
他哀號聲逐漸被猛獸的吼叫聲淹沒，不久，便沒了聲音。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub8MKvkeF1
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X8CJI0Tv9
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwL8IECEPZ0
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC41wMAvDax
「如果會害怕，就轉頭過去。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMKrItjLGL
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Wwa1HdYNX
「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。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpDN0PyMMB
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIhbq4NicX
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRK7N9UXO31
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3MVqcjpFG
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPmqCHJF3D
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyS1Q752Bz2
看到他神色慌張，風好奇地問，「你怎麼了？」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74jwDgytna
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMI9OHXu8EN
「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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxP8QZUihl
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuOcEJHTax
「你說吧！或許我可以幫你。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGCJzUh0Vh
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVz7ecMMFok
「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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuVCqDV14K
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEzRoUU4j5
風輕閉著眼，沒有多說什麼。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsesUxlNMuU
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cMoWE4Xve
「說的也是…對不起，為難你了。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vkt8plsU8
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7edohqBlI
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCmgPZ5hON
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO7zxjtPE9
「啊－－」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡza0oxCoB4e
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs01U4zNice
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…119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUhD9IeHEg
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzazuNhBbfj
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L3ZzxUSWj
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEu7RRh6cuo
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4dVFzhaTl
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpLatlqM8k
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcDhaRlGm0
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1MYx7sF8j
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqELIlUahGh
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9mvjOTEMG
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfi0qZVZ64B
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMebfTZvre
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMEPxkb68Z
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXuEDYq2ZQ
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4noj0VZEt
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qtTbqUj7g
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKl6uwcEFpN
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDubDT0qK36
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUNRX1Ke8v
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy4QtHz5Rb
「太好了！幸好你平安無事，我好怕你會跟他們一樣…」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NsEMbT0DI
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDfi6hfv8e
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrReEFuAYW
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRTrIga27o
不久，小男孩鬆開手，揉著眼睛、紅著臉抬頭苦笑著。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAwORQoYXw
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2vYHfNKFO
「對不起！我好像太激動了。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcj3hw6SRT
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VruPEBfK6
「沒關係。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GAlnQ6Mtk
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlz8reetx5s
風掏出項鍊並攤在小男孩面前。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXg8oiGPaC
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctB0ZFE5cT
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。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBmeCvEuvz
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISVCAUmNUh
「原來如此。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Q66QuM7So
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXS9eOf7V4
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…」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0XHsDtQHU
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdWrcQIa4k
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ceVEkfU5c
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRx57YkxKo
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNi6CLvNq1p
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…
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzhmXxpf90
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAsZxFBUOJ
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…
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2L5HyXCIX
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbGrPKfSUl
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…
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoLu4jd021
奇蹟…119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVeS1sPsIH
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLpIMGLvs0
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjpm5vMvuB
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSkhD8Q25J
如果不是風的出現，現在他早就被猛獸吞下肚…119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANYIVsRIcp
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EydTwnLE2
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。」119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXBpMPsi9j
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qVzBFHkxy
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。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMh1hVed0mD
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZgmbTI7Ma
突然，風感覺一陣天搖地動，幾乎快不能站立。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMX5Cx3dXNd
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIMyFSfATW
「這是怎麼回事？」修司驚慌失措地四周張望。119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtgZSyh5EJ
119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4L66n5sRre
「難道…」
