浩瀚無邊的天空中星辰璀璨，極光如練，一身淡色簡便絲綢長衫的女子倚坐在天然的石椅上，將光著的腳探入水裏，前後搖晃著，蕩起一層一層波紋。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9tcyBaKqz
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhXIW8qNtu
須臾她向前看去，泛著幽光的蜿蜒長河不知深淺不見盡頭。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtpBlUifgn
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2cHlNQDPt
她似乎這般坐著持續了好久好久，除了幾個肢體動作亦不聞話語不變神態……551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUHivnDzT2
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0WRoMwaWS
接著畫面一轉，飄落如雪的櫻桃花下，女子穿著同樣的衣衫坐在突出地面的樹根上，光著的腳將地上的落花掃成一堆，再勻勻順開，再掃成一堆……似乎這樣的動作亦循環了多次持續了好久好久。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMCduQoDol
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTu7574Cho
須臾她抬起頭看向百層台階之上那高大宏偉的殿宇。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvFf31ViAv
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLf2nYdBNdN
但似乎還有其他的什麽……551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWXTk2tpiF
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfTUrItMsS
窗邊的麻雀聲不絕于耳，床上之人從被窩裏伸出一只手，彈了一指法術出去，把那些吵鬧的鳥兒趕得一只不剩，接著把手又縮回被窩裏，繼續蒙頭大睡。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zQ6bkHRWD
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPGXLrXuPU
卻不想趕走了鳥兒緊接著又響起敲門聲。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwagF73OQY4
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOgzmiFKGU
「姑娘醒了嗎？」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8Cl5ljLyr
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNGEaCm6P5
無人回應。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdf0QyNCI4
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikJijUxIi6
門外的婢子等了一會兒，才又接連喚道：「姑娘？姑娘？姑娘莫要貪睡了，流雲苑新到了一批雲霧绡，媽媽讓您去挑幾匹做褙子和襦裙，銀子已經付過了。」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3xvXrbCy5
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzwFJ49lDy
床上的人深深歎了一口氣，無奈掀開身上的暖被窩，雙眼無神地看著紗帳，聲音有些幹啞：「我曉得了。」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPr71vvIbh1
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQyVXNqn27
婢子聽到回應後推了門進來，把手裏端的水盆放在了床邊的架子上，再一邊把紗帳挽起來一邊道：「今兒個天氣不錯，等挑完料子，奴陪您去街市逛逛吧。」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtT16BLimcC
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIqIwpJikj
女子坐起身，敷衍地點點頭，走到妝台前照入銅鏡裏的還是一副慵懶面容惺忪睡眼，聽她道：「其實我覺得你的眼光比我好，不如你去幫我挑罷，天氣甚好適合睡覺，我就不出去了，左邊的抽屜裏還有些碎銀，你拿去買點喜歡的東西。」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1N1JxojoWM
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMMjerKrg1
婢子却皺起了眉，銀子她雖喜歡，可今日這料子是媽媽特意交代了的，耽誤不得，「奴自己去能搶到才怪，隔壁的姐姐些哪能讓給奴，姑娘切莫再推卻，再晚去就只能挑剩的了。」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtoE0cQ3Lu
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHIdSMv3aU
不容主子萬般不願，婢子熟稔地給女子紮起一個簡單的側髻，再插上一只銀白色扇形步搖。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCP5RaN6z7
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgNF9BIcnr
這回籠覺怕是睡不回去了，女子只得無奈道：「黃姑，你先出去罷，待我洗漱完換身衣衫。」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqyfz2H8Bz
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5Rj9CaizR
婢子放下牛角梳，再把步搖調正了些，才道：「那姑娘快些，奴在樓下等您。」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7psGfRTY1
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvT61im6nHz
待婢子出了房，女子閉上眼回憶起昨夜夢中的所見——551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlw3v120D9R
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPnLbhrGaj
夢中的人是誰？那又是什麽地方？為什麼在夢裡除了那女子不見其他人……551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EwmibMu4A
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZpdAsh5Iu
其實她亦不知自己從何處來，也不知自己要去往何處，只知自己與常人不同，不會餓，不會渴，不會老，不會病……551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgh7l2HAC6
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMILDjLM3u
但也許會死吧，她沒試過，也萬萬不想。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpOt5au9Gi
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡribOljWgun
唯一又很平常的是，她愛睡覺，一整天大部分時間都可以賴在床上，對她來說這世間沒有比床更舒服的所在了。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjr9Tj4xVO6
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS254CAyRE
這些年她漫無目的行了很多路，呆過很多地方：深宮大院、平常人家、武林門派、仙山道觀……輾轉多年，停停走走，現如今留在了這受世人鄙夷的煙花之地。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mTkd3b3tg
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgnAt46uHq
其實她還挺喜歡這裏的。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJv6z6UqchO
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOEinQqjgy
床大又軟，漂亮且舒服，生活中沒那麽多規矩，不用早起練功，不用幹活受累，沒有勾心鬥角，沒有經文繞耳……每天還能聽到南來北往的尋花客所說的新鮮事，甚是新奇有趣。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLmbss11kn
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvn9i6sKphK
是以這次已過兩年，她仍無意離開。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0fvVvtAUH
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabCJoNIrpv
她想自己應該是個仙人或者山精妖怪之類的，純熟的法術能信手拈來。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tHSgCGUGz
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8tOxQFgml
每天就靠著這稀裏糊塗的本事擋掉各種對她圖謀不軌的客人，還隱藏得無聲無息，全然無人發現她的怪異。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwhezWZ7FH
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJcC7ve2iI
風月場所的男女情事她雖從未接觸，但見得不少，左右不過吃吃唇上的胭脂，再入房翻雲覆雨一番。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbPwMM69Ui
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3z6AibYWF
她著實沒啥興趣，還是睡覺甚合心意。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVlhKVc1AD
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6x8L1bjHK
幸得自己生了一副謂之清冷絕豔的面容，讓她每天只是在前廳台子上或站或坐一刻鍾，就能讓媽媽的荷包股脹起來。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjdMcIWOkO
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQp6UNCZRgg
即便是輕紗遮面，那些留著哈喇子的尋花客依舊肯慷慨解囊。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoIPKP69Mi
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9SfOVtpQD
媽媽告訴她：男人就是這樣，越得不到越覺得寶貝，在得到你之前，多少銀子都肯花在你身上。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHUwRiuxPz
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaAFK3Byoh
當然銀子花了，務必是要給一些回報的，所以就有了千金摘紗，萬金入房之說。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaU8nJwZVTL
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dGarxA5sD
這齊胥國最不缺的就是商賈大戶，因此她面上的紗摘過不少回了，倒不是什麽爲難之事，至于入房，也是不少回，自是都被她用法術給坑騙了回去，自己亦從未吃過虧。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwylp0JyPm
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnW6MgsOfpX
那伺候她的婢子是老鸨從西市奴隸販子那買來的，她給取了個名字喚做：黃姑。是因那丫頭皮膚蠟黃是個姑娘。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMAeumBERJ
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfIgt9aCaM
好吧，她在取名這方面著實沒啥天賦，姑且就這麽叫著。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4d3S4mDBh
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEmrmjWaXv
「延齡姑娘，媽媽去西市買米了，一時半會兒回不來，媽媽怕您應付不來，晚些時候就不用去前廳了，待媽媽回來再說。」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfC4Q8ziiC
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5PoM60VHO
門外又響起一句，是傳話小厮的聲音。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeKPfv22cE
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvXv4C6aZz
「知曉了。」她應道。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLiH6XlDe0
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPSyl3eHDu
西市買米是這裏的暗語，老鸨常年和西市的奴隸販子打交道，有啥好貨色都先留下，待老鸨挑剩了再入市出售。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKyFUbnhQu
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrBGsdzIMz
而延齡的來路是整個雲香閣最爲讓老鸨大惑不解的。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsuSSXmGZ4
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbuMpHePOO
想老鸨做這行也超過二十年了，這還是頭一遭遇到女子主動要入閣做花娘的。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKj0sgw83s6
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgUIWI5FkN
看此女穿得體面不像落魄之人，膚質細嫩，白裏透紅，要說是大戶人家小姐也不爲過，長相更是人間難得，難不成是隔壁千芳樓派來的臥底？551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLN8wzDhEX
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp36PCzlrna
可如此佳人又豈有拒絕之理，你會把白花花的銀子丟到河裏？要真是臥底，那千芳樓的老鸨怕是腦子進了水。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkSnKDCsTf
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9nBXUaAtV
所以管她什麽來路，什麽目的呢，這株搖錢樹不請進門也是腦子進水。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Qxb81rHf6
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXszcKzp7HG
但老鸨還是止不住心裏的莫大好奇。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyACiU3bxg
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8om9WMgScz
「姑娘怎會想來我雲香閣謀生路？」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK10pH7JFC4
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23VcSx31mE
「人多熱鬧，食飽睡暖。」女子的眼神透著清明不似唬人：「如若不便……」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedpotis6Cs
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M7ogQRGzB
「便！便便便……」551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0H6qNKwlP
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSj794gd4S
理由雖牽強可也讓人無法反駁，想來這世上人多熱鬧，能吃飽睡暖，不用幹活不用花錢還能賺錢的地方也尋不著第二處了。551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEGKSUpJks
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlEUg1Ozu9
再說這「延齡」二字，是她看著路旁開了三片花瓣的延齡草隨口給自己取的名字，至于原本的名字……551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleAa8834Yi
551Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhqlAR2zie
她不知，也不確定是否有。
