盂蘭盛會。486Please respect copyright.PENANAOAaiT8FFXc

這是陽間的夜晚時份,本來是瀝青地足球場上在仲夏之前臨時建起了這碩大的建築物。竹支搭建而成的戲棚傳來一種發霉木塊的味道,夾雜著善信燒香的煙薰味。露天戲棚內燈火通明,靠著舞台上的射燈燈光,把台下一排排的座椅染上陣紅陣黃的熱鬧顔色。台上花旦小生正演一幕文戲,在後台旁的樂師像在打瞌睡。486Please respect copyright.PENANAJRbWZ2FFdv

時候已經不早了,觀眾席上只剩下得疏疏落落幾隻人影,幾個伯伯腦袋瓜跟著節拍來回搖動,用著走腔的音調也唱一份。小羽不禁懷疑,到底在座的有幾多位根本不是人類。486Please respect copyright.PENANAkGoXDhZTXd
486Please respect copyright.PENANAiHbAY5zMR1
帶位的伯伯耳邊插了根皺巴巴的香煙,忙著在角落跟清潔嬸嬸串門子,似乎沒打算帶剛進場的小羽就坐。她還留在一旁未踏進去,把觀眾席來回掃視了一遍,肯定坐在正中那一個人就是目標。486Please respect copyright.PENANAWfAVqvFHWp

一個年約四十多歲的蒼白男人端坐在中間,一身雪白的造型跟這舊戲院極不搭配。他身穿一件銀白色絲質寛袖長袍,腰間插著一把鐵骨紙扇,就算放進古裝街也毫不突兀。他灰髮藍眼、寛掌長臉,高䠷的身栽在狹窄的座椅之間,坐得有點侷促。小羽不禁亂猜,這白爺好可能是個患白化病的白子,更有可能是個半唐蕃混血洋人。486Please respect copyright.PENANAS6gBi8yaqU
486Please respect copyright.PENANACPr6uLAD79
小羽二話不說擠到他旁邊,那人連眼尾也沒轉過來,雙眼仍舊盯著舞台。486Please respect copyright.PENANAJHYFDxCDjD
486Please respect copyright.PENANAY9RyTWuVMo
「您好,閣下就是白爺謝必安先生不是?」486Please respect copyright.PENANAyuykPsqpSn
486Please respect copyright.PENANAaSYxpbXPe2
「等一下可以嗎?我最喜歡這一場戲。」486Please respect copyright.PENANAtuq4ODmXYi
486Please respect copyright.PENANAvF2LcG22lX
那男人沒有直接說小羽認錯人,大概可以當是默認吧。其實白爺外表不過是正值盛年的年紀,怎樣說也稱不上一個『爺』字。486Please respect copyright.PENANA6gynoJFjZa
486Please respect copyright.PENANAyf5SfGqAbH
那男人指頭敲著手靠打拍子,點頭哼著歌詞:「...盼得花燭共諧白髮...誰個願看花燭翻血浪...」486Please respect copyright.PENANAdAjXn1vAaa
486Please respect copyright.PENANA8RFY4EpaTG
小羽望著這場悶得發毛的粵曲,老實不客氣的打了個瞌睡。486Please respect copyright.PENANAe0ZZxBK5oe
486Please respect copyright.PENANAUWbyHm1pTM
「...朗月引路到仙鄉...」那男人鼻子抽了一下,閉上雙眼繼續哼唱:「...雙雙仙侶共泛銀河浪...」486Please respect copyright.PENANAAHxP6Y7n4v
486Please respect copyright.PENANAbhzK9DFVPn
小羽知道再怎樣叫也沒用,唯有靜靜等下去。好在戲目已近結尾,還不到五分鐘時間就謝幕。486Please respect copyright.PENANAtVQbkw5dw4
486Please respect copyright.PENANAgB0NFPbUCl
那蒼白男人緩緩站起來,慢慢向著出口走去,完全無視了旁邊的小羽。這實在有點太囂張了,小羽壓住怒氣,繞個圈子追上去。486Please respect copyright.PENANA14BLIGiHW1
486Please respect copyright.PENANABmaP5AJtma
「白爺!」小羽趕及在戲棚出口追上去。486Please respect copyright.PENANAlqRzShjscW
486Please respect copyright.PENANAFS6ii0e56V
蒼白男人停下腳步,眼神空洞,明明在望著小羽的眼睛,卻教人覺得他根本沒有看著自己:「小妹妹,如果我想應妳的,剛才已經應了;不想理妳的,妳認為跑過來我就會理會妳嗎?」486Please respect copyright.PENANAh7aeJQUTjd
486Please respect copyright.PENANAqT5i0PkvYh
「白爺,但是是盲毛叫我來的。您不是有個任務委託...」486Please respect copyright.PENANAf12S8iOtTN
486Please respect copyright.PENANAeJee1AZkA2
「酒場沒有再好的死神了嗎?我沒想過應徵的會是個小女孩。」 486Please respect copyright.PENANANnLVY4xMZ9
486Please respect copyright.PENANATgbhXigj47
「女孩就有甚麼問題?」小羽也不甘示弱:「待我有朝一日成了閻王,就有你好看的。」486Please respect copyright.PENANA5i2G76whVv
486Please respect copyright.PENANAH7TUNIEe76
白爺眨眨眼,好幾秒鐘沒作半點反應:「妳意思是:妳想當閻羅王?」486Please respect copyright.PENANA0NrN1jjFjW
486Please respect copyright.PENANA795neufg1v
「對啊。」486Please respect copyright.PENANAgKdWJL1pJ6
486Please respect copyright.PENANAIBRLHy1gpc
「哈哈哈哈...這是我四百年來聽過最有創意的笑話。」白爺沒好氣地答:「那我不阻妳繼續發這春秋大夢了,哈...竟然有個乳臭未乾的小女孩,說她想當上閻王...哈...荒謬...真荒謬...」486Please respect copyright.PENANAX22ltXRtYk
486Please respect copyright.PENANAqg7DEFHSpx
「為甚麼不行?」486Please respect copyright.PENANA0jxLKc9wjk
486Please respect copyright.PENANAEMi94EibgF
「數千百年以來,根本就沒有出過像妳這樣的閻王。」486Please respect copyright.PENANABQQa9qk2ny
486Please respect copyright.PENANAQOCtuct9Be
「我有甚麼問題?」486Please respect copyright.PENANAORYVJG2Cyf
486Please respect copyright.PENANAKpKeqod5Rd
「妳?妳肯定妳過得了那十八重地獄的關卡?」白爺搖搖頭:「只不過妳只有十幾歲、妳也沒有超凡的智慧、也沒有神祇般的法力。而且,妳是個女的。」486Please respect copyright.PENANAVJk4u3lXG9
486Please respect copyright.PENANAZt3lkkIafo
小羽挖一挖鼻孔,她最不喜歡聽到這種『不行啦、不可以啦、沒可能啦』一類的廢話,還有那封建的性別歧視。她隨手把鼻屎乾彈走,再把拍拍白爺膊頭:「那我就做第一個吧。」486Please respect copyright.PENANAkMm7IWHmBU
486Please respect copyright.PENANALLD31kQxAU
白爺急忙退後一步,甩開小羽的手。486Please respect copyright.PENANAnff8oYia75
486Please respect copyright.PENANAvYFRDs7t81
「我想,這千百年來也沒有人敢把鼻屎抺在你身上,對吧?」小羽望著白爺一身近乎潔癖的純白套裝,肯定沒有人夠膽挑釁這一板一眼的老頑固。486Please respect copyright.PENANAbCaNFwGs6a
486Please respect copyright.PENANAmYlGItzv2y
白爺先是呆了一下,卻不期然笑了出來。他來回踱了幾步:「我倒很欣賞妳這瘋瘋癲癲的性格。」他態度似乎沒剛才那麼冷漠。486Please respect copyright.PENANAcA60d4HBfx
486Please respect copyright.PENANAiF2lsUJVc7
白爺望望空空如也的戲台,靜止不動了好幾秒,微微笑一笑:「委託的事,等我好好考慮一下。」486Please respect copyright.PENANACb9UlHFbhS
486Please respect copyright.PENANA6hMNviOGfP
說罷白爺轉身就走。小羽呆在原地,慢慢覺得有點不對勁。486Please respect copyright.PENANAam6VRZMYlI
486Please respect copyright.PENANATjaLGNSOV5
「等等,白爺!」小羽追上去:「明白人說明白事,那甚麼大不了的偵測任務,找我就找我,不然就叫別的死神去做吧。別浪費本小姐青春,本小姐可不能無止境的等你答覆。」486Please respect copyright.PENANA6OOkjBH5p3
486Please respect copyright.PENANAheSvfp3Ras
白爺再次望著小羽,雙眼卻不是剛才那種空洞的目光,而是仿佛能穿透別人想法的銳利眼神。他稍稍寬容下來,除除的道:「很好...很好...面對拒絕,妳處理得不錯。」486Please respect copyright.PENANA1za9Zp8p5R
486Please respect copyright.PENANAE62wagkRXn
他...在試我?486Please respect copyright.PENANAyfKjLoWJSC
486Please respect copyright.PENANAwZW1zEkCVS
戲棚的大光燈調暗,小羽才記起時候已經不早了。白爺突然一臉認真的吩咐小羽:「好吧,給妳一個機會。要是任務出了甚麼差池的話,小心我對妳不客氣。」486Please respect copyright.PENANA48E9ccb1Eb
486Please respect copyright.PENANA03ufJNKoI7
「呃...好啊。」486Please respect copyright.PENANAZ955Eqb6WC
486Please respect copyright.PENANAvRzzp51Kom
「明天陽間早上八時正,妳再來這個戲棚找我。」486Please respect copyright.PENANAtxd6JpZZeh
486Please respect copyright.PENANAnAIR2BoKQE
小羽正想多問一句的時候,眨眼間發覺白爺已經失去踪影。 486Please respect copyright.PENANA9GtRpCdhKT
