第223章

    城堡深处。

    幽暗的房间里只有一个狭小的窗口，月光透过生锈的铁窗，微弱的光亮将房间内的摆设隐约照清。

    房间的角落里，一个身披着修女服的女人正在双手合十作祈祷状。修女服是非常少见的幽蓝色，上面是繁复绚烂的绣花，但花团锦簇的纹饰却用了罂粟花。

    罂粟花在奶白的月光下红得发紫，给这件修女服增添了一丝怪异的妖媚感。

    修女一半的面容隐藏在黑暗里，小巧的樱唇和白皙的下颚线暴露在月光下，显得唇红面白，美得不像真人，倒像个玉琢的人一般。

    低声而清脆的声音从那张小巧的嘴里发出，如果克里斯蒂安·诺尔德在这里，一定会惊讶于这个修女的发音。原因无他，这个修女拥有一口醇正的英式口音，一看就在欧洲呆过最起码十年以上才拥有的口音。

    “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.(起初神创造天地)

    And the earth was without form， and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.(地是空虚混沌。渊面黑暗。神的灵运行在水面上。)

    And God said， Let there be light: and there was light.(神说，要有光，就有了光。)

    And God saw the light， that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.(神看光是好的，就把光暗分开了。)

    And God called the light Day， and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.(神称光为“昼”，称暗为“夜”。有晚上，有早晨，这是头一日。)

    And God said， Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters， and let it divide the waters from the waters.

    (神说：“诸水之间要有空气，将水分为上下。)

    And God made the firmament， and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.(神就造出空气，将空气以下的水、空气以上的水分开了。事就这样成了。)

    And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.(神称空气为“天”。有晚上，有早晨，是第二日。)

    And God said， Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place， and let the dry land appear: and it was so.(神说：“天下的水要聚在一处，使旱地露出来。”事就这样成了。)

    And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.(神称旱地为“地”，称水的聚处为“海”。神看着是好的。)

    And God said， Let the earth bring forth grass， the herb yielding seed， and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind， whose seed is in itself， upon the earth: and it was so.(神说：“地要发生青草和结种子的菜蔬，并结果子的树木，各从其类，果子都包着核。”事就这样成了。)

    And the earth brought forth grass， and herb yielding seed after his kind， and the tree yielding fruit， whose seed was in itself， after his kind: and God saw that it was good.(于是地发生了青草和结种子的菜蔬，各从其类；并结果子的树木，各从其类；果子都包着核。神看着是好的。)

    And the evening and the morning were the third day.(有晚上，有早晨，是第三日。)

    And God said， Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs， and for seasons， and for days， and years.(神说：“天上要有光体，可以分昼夜、作记号、定节令、日子、年岁。)

    And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.(并要发光在天空，普照在地上。”事就这样成了。)

    And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day， and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.(于是神造了两个大光：大的管昼，小的管夜。又造众星。)

    And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth.(就把这些光摆列在天空，普照在地上。)

    And to rule over the day and over the night， and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.(管理昼夜，分别明暗。神看着是好的)”

    修女的声音顿了顿，过了一会她又继续念了下去:“And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.(有晚上，有早晨，是第四日。)

    And God said， Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life， and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.(神说：“水要多多滋生有生命的物，要有雀鸟飞在地面以上，天空之中。”)

    And God created great whales， and every living creature that moveth， which the waters brought forth abundantly， after their kind， and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.(神就造出大鱼和水中所滋生各样有生命的动物，各从其类；又造出各样飞鸟，各从其类。神看着是好的。)

    And God blessed them， saying， Be fruitful， and multiply， and fill the waters in the seas， and let fowl multiply in the earth.(神就赐福给这一切，说：“滋生繁多，充满海中的水；雀鸟也要多生在地上。”)

    And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.(有晚上，有早晨，是第五日。)

    And God said， Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind， cattle， and creeping thing， and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.(神说：“地要生出活物来，各从其类；牲畜、昆虫、野兽，各从其类。”事就这样成了。)

    And God made the beast of the earth after his kind， and cattle after their kind， and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.(于是神造出野兽，各从其类；牲畜，各从其类；地上一切昆虫，各从其类。神看着是好的。)

    And God said， Let us make man in our image， after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea， and over the fowl of the air， and over the cattle， and over all the earth， and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.(神说：“我们要照着我们的形象，按着我们的样式造人，使他们管理海里的鱼、空中的鸟、地上的牲畜和全地，并地上所爬的一切昆虫。”)

    So God created man in his own image， in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.(神就照着自己的形象造人，乃是照着他的形象造男造女。)

    And God blessed them， and God said unto them， Be fruitful， and multiply， and replenish the earth， and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea， and over the fowl of the air， and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.(神就赐福给他们，又对他们说：“要生养众多，遍满地面，治理这地；也要管理海里的鱼、空中的鸟，和地上各样行动的活物。”)

    And God said， Behold， I have given you every herb bearing seed， which is upon the face of all the earth， and every tree， in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.(神说：“看哪！我将遍地上一切结种子的菜蔬和一切树上所结有核的果子，全赐给你们作食物。)

    And to every beast of the earth， and to every fowl of the air， and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth， wherein there is life， I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.(至于地上的走兽和空中的飞鸟，并各样爬在地上有生命的物，我将青草赐给它们作食物。”事就这样成了)

    And God saw every thing that he had made， and， behold， it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.(神看着一切所造的都甚好。有晚上，有早晨，是第六日。)

    Thus the heavens and the earth were finished， and all the host of them.(天地万物都造齐了。)”

    漆暗的房间里，只有修女的声音和滴答滴答的水声。窗外高挂着逐渐澄澈的月亮，宛如被水洗过一般，洗去了笼罩在月亮表面的雾气，只剩下清凌凌的月光。

    “And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.(到第七日，神造物的工已经完毕，就在第七日歇了他一切的工，安息了。)

    And God blessed the seventh day， and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.(神赐福给第七日，定为圣日，因为在这日神歇了他一切创造的工，就安息了)

    These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created， in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens.(创造天地的来历，在耶和华神造天地的日子，乃是这样。)

    And every plant of the field before it was in the earth， and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth， and there was not a man to till the ground.

    (野地还没有草木，田间的菜蔬还没有长起来，因为耶和华神还没有降雨在地上，也没有人耕地；)

    But there went up a mist from the earth， and watered the whole face of the ground.(但有雾气从地上腾，滋润遍地。)

    And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground， and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.(耶和华神用地上的尘土造人，将生气吹在他鼻孔里，他就成了有灵的活人，名叫亚当。)

    And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.(耶和华神在东方的伊甸立了一个园子，把所造的人安置在那里。)

    And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight， and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden， and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.(耶和华神使各样的树从地里长出来，可以悦人的眼目，其上的果子好作食物。园子当中又有生命树和分别善恶的树。)

    And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted， and became into four heads.(有河从伊甸流出来，滋润那园子，从那里分为四道：)

    The name of the first is Pison: that is it which passeth the whole land of Havilah， where there is gold;(第一道名叫比逊，就是环绕哈腓拉全地的。在那里有金子，)

    And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.(并且那地的金子是好的；在那里又有珍珠和红玛瑙。)

    And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that passeth the whole land of Ethiopia.(第二道河名叫基训，就是环绕古实全地的。)

    And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.(第三道河名叫希底结，流在亚述的东边。第四道河就是伯拉河。)

    And the LORD God took the man， and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.(耶和华神将那人安置在伊甸园，使他修理看守。)

    And the LORD God manded the man， saying， Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:(耶和华神吩咐他说：“园中各样树上的果子，你可以随意吃；)

    But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil， thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.(只是分别善恶树上的果子，你不可吃，因为你吃的日子必定死！”)

    And the LORD God said， It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.(耶和华神说：“那人独居不好，我要为他造一个配偶帮助他。”)

    And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field， and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature， that was the name thereof.(耶和华神用土所造成的野地各样走兽，和空中各样飞鸟，都带到那人面前，看他叫什么。那人怎样叫各样的活物，那就是它的名字。)

    And Adam gave names to all cattle， and to the fowl of the air， and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.(那人便给一切牲畜和空中飞鸟、野地走兽都起了名；只是那人没有遇见配偶帮助他。)

    And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam， and he slept: and he took one of his ribs， and closed up the flesh instead thereof;(耶和华神使他沉睡，他就睡了。于是取下他的一条肋骨，又把肉合起来。)

    And the rib， which the LORD God had taken from man， made he a woman， and brought her unto the man.(耶和华神就用那人身上所取的肋骨，造成一个女人，领她到那人跟前。)

    And Adam said， This is now bone of my bones， and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman， because she was taken out of Man.(那人说：“这是我骨中的骨，肉中的肉，可以称她为‘女人’，因为她是从男人身上取出来的。”)

    Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother， and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.(因此，人要离开父母，与妻子连合，二人成为一体。)

    And they were both naked， the man and his wife， and were not ashamed.(当时夫妻二人，赤身露体，并不羞耻。)”

    一声极轻的笑声打断了修女的背诵。修女睁开了双眸，对于房间内出现的声音，修女并没有感觉到惊讶，她的双眸蓄着盈盈水光，眸底含着一丝兴奋。

    “ Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman， Yea， hath God said， Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?(耶和华神所造的，惟有蛇比田野一切的活物更狡猾。蛇对女人说：“神岂是真说，不许你们吃园中所有树上的果子吗？”)

    And the woman said unto the serpent， We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:(女人对蛇说：“园中树上的果子我们可以吃，)

    But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden， God hath said， Ye shall not eat of it， neither shall ye touch it， lest ye die.(惟有园当中那棵树上的果子，神曾说：‘你们不可吃，也不可摸，免得你们死。)

    And the serpent said unto the woman， Ye shall not surely die:(蛇对女人说：“你们不一定死)

    For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof， then your eyes shall be opened， and ye shall be as gods， knowing good and evil.(因为神知道，你们吃的日子眼睛就明亮了，你们便如神能知道善恶。”)”接替修女的声音念下去的竟然是一个清朗的男声。

    男孩子的声音突兀在房间里响起，他的声音里带着些许魅惑，还带着少年特有的沙哑音。

    “多可笑。神创造了他们，却不被他们所信任。”

    “我永远相信您，我的主人。”修女抬眼看向黑暗的墙角处。

    黑暗的角落里出现了一个人影，他的身影颀长，整个人被包裹在厚实的斗篷底下，但仍然显得身形单薄。

    他缓缓走向修女，修女乖巧地蹲下来，仰着修长的脖颈看向男人。她的目光中闪烁着期待、渴望，她紧张而虔诚地望着男人抬起的手。

    随着男人抬起手落在她的头顶，修女的嘴里溢出一丝低吟，面色微微酡红，宛如醉酒一般。

    “我当然知道，你一直都是最好的乖孩子。”男人声音带着少年的稚气，动作却带着蛊惑般的魔力，“拉贵尔。我的乖女孩，过来我给你讲个故事。”

    拉贵尔顺从地点头，眉目里甚至带着些娇羞的姿态。

    如果有人能够看见月光映照的墙上，他们二人的倒影，一定会瞪大双眼。

    纠缠成两团的黑雾影子，在月光下面目狰狞。

    “从高空俯视，透过薄薄的云层，可以看见白色的云气之下那深邃的蓝色的海洋，这种视野下，整个汪洋犹如一面带着曲面的镜子，可以印射下整片美丽的长空。

    茫茫的海洋之中，零星的坐落着许多葱葱郁郁的岛屿，而在一片有着乌云遮蔽的下方，一块方圆约有二十公里的岛屿显得格外的特别。

    这是一块几分规则形状的菱形岛屿，在岛屿的最中央是一座笔直的山峰，远远望去就像一柄宝剑倒插在这广袤的岛屿上。

    整个岛屿四面都是悬崖峭壁，没有一个平整的沙滩。

    在悬崖下的海水，汹涌波涛，时常可以听见海浪拍击着那凌乱的礁石时发出的怒啸之声。

    岛屿边缘这种特殊的结构，也就意味着这是一个根本不可能停靠船只的封闭的岛屿！

    ……

    岛屿的南边，一处向外延伸的悬崖畔，一个十五岁左右的小少年衣裳单薄的坐在最边缘的岩石上，他注视着海平面那未知的彼岸，憧憬的眼神之中，却又还带着一丝耐人寻味的忧伤。

    这是一个很不符合这个年龄阴郁的脸庞，只是他一直保持着，没有任何的伪装，是内心的真正流露……

    海浪惊涛拍崖，时而溅起，海风凛冽袭来，灌入了小少年单薄的衣裳之中，扬起了他那有些凌乱的头发。

    小少年就像是静坐在海崖上的一尊雕像，渺小的身影迎着渺茫汹涌的海洋……

    ……

    不知过了多久，一声如同号角般的声音从岛屿的丛林深处传来。

    “呜~~~~~~~~~~”

    听到这个号角声的时候，少年流出了几分厌恶的情绪，但还是慢慢的站了起来，朝着声音响起的地方走去。

    ……

    少年身子清瘦，但是动作却很敏捷，在这复杂的岛屿丛林中，他穿梭自如，很快便抵达了丛林之中的一片空旷之地。

    空旷之处大概只有方圆一百多米，方圆之地是用高有三十米的厚厚的木尖围成木墙，形成一个类似村寨的营地。

    营地只有一个大门，大门的位置站着四个穿着青色衣裳的男子。这四个男子大概都是三十多岁的样子，并没有什么比较出众的地方。

    而值得关注的，应该是这四个男子身旁，那有着可怕的獠牙的狼型生物！！

    “呃！！呃！！！！！！”

    “呃呜！！！！！！！”

    四只獠狼看见少年走进来，立刻凶芒毕露，咧开了长嘴，将森白的獠牙完全暴露出来，随时都会扑向这个瘦小的少年。

    “还不快滚进去！！慢吞吞的，想死不成？哼哼。就你这身板还不够我的郊狼一顿夜宵！！”其中一个有着碎头发的男子恶狠狠的对小少年说道。

    小少年忌惮的躲开了那几只总是想要扑向自己的郊狼，快速的走进了营地内。

    看着这个小少年的背影，那碎头发的男子却是不屑的吐了一口唾沫，说道：“也不知道是谁把这小子给弄来的，看起来弱不禁风的，哪里经得起我们这种魇魔营的折腾。”

    “是夏大人，我听说……”另一个红发的男子特意顿了顿，然后用很沉的声音说道，

    “他已经是个死人了。”

    “已经是死人，哼哼，在这里的小东西们，哪一个不是死人？”古雷很不在意的说道。

    “这你就不懂了。这小子以前也是某个家族的小少爷，也不知道得罪了什么人，有人花钱请我们魇魔宫内的人出手解决掉他。
