锁灵玫瑰
1475
情人节这天,叶露收到一束没有署名的红玫瑰。
她想破了脑袋,也想不出花是谁送的。
下了夜班,叶露捧着玫瑰走到“筷子弄”弄口。
这条弄堂不仅像筷子一样细长,而且灯光昏暗,但这是回家的必经之路,她只得硬着头皮走了进去。
叶露正走着,忽然听到后面传来“哒哒哒”的脚步声,她不敢回头,只是加快了步伐。
可后面的脚步声也是紧追不舍,眼看就要追上她了。
叶露下意识将玫瑰花往后扔过去,只听一个声音惨叫着:“痛、痛,救命啊!”再一看,一个青年男子倒在地上,一脸痛苦。
叶露大着胆子走过去问他怎么了,男子惊恐地说:“别、别杀我!我再也不敢了。
”叶露正想继续追问,男子踉踉跄跄爬起来往弄口跑去。
他临走时,恐惧地看了一眼叶露手里的玫瑰。
叶露也低头看去,只见红玫瑰不知何时已经变成了黑玫瑰。
她惊叫一声,把玫瑰扔在了地上,也往弄口跑去。
弄口闪着异样的红光,周围的景物也全变了样。
左前方暗影里,有一条波光粼粼的黑红色小河,河边长满鲜红的花朵,那花没有叶子,只有火红色的花瓣盛开着。
这时,花丛中走出一个穿大红色袍服的年轻女子,她指着小河和不远处的小桥,幽幽地念着:“忘川河,奈何桥,彼岸花……”
叶露见小桥边坐着个老婆婆在打瞌睡,不禁打了个寒战:难道是自己死了,来到了阴界?这老婆婆就是给人喝迷魂汤的孟婆?
叶露还没想明白,女子一甩长袖说:“你没死,是那玫瑰引你来救你丈夫的。
”
叶露的丈夫秦明一年前不幸车祸亡故,为此她生了场大病,不久前才重新上班。
女子领她走向河边:“你丈夫为了你,正在经受魂飞魄散的折磨,现在只有你能救他了。
”
只见河中央浮着一只玫瑰花瓣做成的小船,上面躺着的男人,正是她日思夜想的亡夫秦明。
叶露流着泪喊着丈夫的名字,但秦明没有反应。
女子说:“他听不见你的叫喊,你想救他,就得用这忘川河水,浇灌每一朵彼岸花。
”
叶露连忙跑下河滩,用手舀水。
但手指一接触到河水,就疼得她直打激灵。
等她双手抬起时,河水早从指缝中流光了。
叶露便趴到河滩上,双手撑地,头伸向河面,张开嘴使劲吸了一口河水,在嘴里含着,然后跑向一朵彼岸花,吐了下去……灌了几朵后,叶露的嘴已麻木,但只要看看丈夫的样子,她便用手掰开已无力张开的嘴巴,再把水吸进去……
等叶露强撑着浇完最后一朵彼岸花,她一下瘫在了地上。
不知过了多久,她幽幽醒转,发现自己还是在筷子弄里,手里仍握着一束红玫瑰。
叶露环顾四周,并无异状,难道刚才是自己做了个梦?但口中却真切地传来阵阵异味。
自此之后,叶露每次上下夜班都会带上这束红玫瑰,因为那个红袍女子再三交代,这束玫瑰是她的护身符。
这天半夜,叶露在家中睡得正香,突然被谁摇动了一下,她睁开眼睛,不禁大吃一惊:房间里竟灌满了滚滚浓烟。
她连忙抓起床头柜上的红玫瑰,向大门口跑去,但熊熊大火已经封住了大门,她根本无法冲出去。
叶露急坏了,高声呼救,但外面的世界已经被大火隔绝了。
叶露绝望极了,她把玫瑰紧紧抱在胸前,只觉胸口一闷,就什么也不知道了……
叶露醒过来时,已经躺在了里。
旁边坐着一个男人,有点眼熟。
叶露想了想,正是那晚在筷子弄跟在自己身后的男人。
男人见叶露醒来,显得很高兴,但又有点不好意思。
他红着脸说:“我叫林子,那天……真是对不起。
”他说昨天半夜时,忽然觉得心口一阵阵发痛,便爬起来上街走走,不想正好看到有房子着火了,他忙跑去救火。
当时整幢房子已陷入了火海,他不知哪来的勇气,砸开玻璃窗跳进火海,救出了昏迷不醒的叶露……
叶露看见林子的手臂上缠着纱布,知道是救她受的伤,连连道谢。
林子急忙摆手,突然他又说道:“发现你时,你胸前抱着一束枯萎的玫瑰,你这玫瑰真神啊!”说完,他把那束又变黑了的玫瑰交到她手中。
叶露看到玫瑰快要枯萎了,马上想起了秦明。
她挣扎着爬起来,踉踉跄跄向筷子弄走去。
进了筷子弄,叶露把玫瑰抱在胸前闭目祷告,然后把玫瑰向前一扔,只感到身子一凉,她睁开眼睛,果真又来到了忘川河边。
丈夫秦明躺在河边那块三生石上,石头上刻着四个鲜红的大字“早登彼岸”。
红袍女子站在花丛中,冷冷地说:“这次想救他,你必须要在一小时内,用自己的血和泪灌溉所有彼岸花,否则,你丈夫的魂魄将会灰飞烟灭。
”
叶露看着全身已经焦黑的丈夫,一阵心疼,奋力咬破自己的手指。
随着她不停地用血泪浇灌,秦明的形体慢慢变得正常起来。
这时,女子告诉叶露,她是彼岸花神,那玫瑰是阴间特有的“锁灵玫瑰”。
那些不肯离开亲人,仍留在此岸的阴魂,把灵魂锁在玫瑰中,当思念阳间的亲人时,就把这玫瑰送到亲人手里。
如果预感到亲人有难,锁灵玫瑰还会保护亲人,但自己会因此耗尽灵力。
每次灵力受损,玫瑰就会变黑,甚至枯萎而死。
等浇灌完最后一朵花时,叶露失血过多,又一次失去了知觉。
过了很久,叶露隐隐听到林子在叫她,醒来一看,自己又回到了筷子弄。
林子一路尾随,看到叶露没事,松了口气:“吓死我了,你刚才一下晕过去了。
”突然,他惊骇地指着叶露手里的玫瑰,“这玫瑰怎么……”原来,叶露手中的玫瑰又一次焕发了生机。
叶露几天后就出院了。
房子被大火吞没,叶露无家可归,林子便把她带到了自己的那幢二层老房。
这里靠河临街,楼下是林子的花店和卧室,楼上则借给叶露暂住。
林子无微不至的关心,让叶露倍感温暖。
渐渐地,叶露知道了林子的故事,他一度沉迷赌博,那天又赌输了,欠了别人一大笔钱。
他经过筷子弄,看见了叶露,突发歹念,但反被叶露的玫瑰弄伤了。
自此之后,他决定痛改前非,就开了家花店。
林子感慨道:“多亏你和这束玫瑰,让我及时收手了。
”他也知道叶露和秦明的事,劝叶露说,“你们都应该走出过去的阴影。
你为他伤心,而他又牵挂着你,不去投胎转世,这对你对他都不好!”
叶露回到自己房里,捧着锁灵玫瑰,喃喃自语道:“明,你把自己的魂魄锁在玫瑰中,守护着我,岂不是太苦了吗……”
玫瑰叶片上竟慢慢涌出了水珠,像眼泪。
叶露的眼泪也“啪嗒啪嗒”滴在花瓣上。
夜里,叶露在睡梦中,感到有人坐在她的床上,她睁开眼睛一看,是丈夫秦明正低头看着自己,脸上带着悲伤。
叶露伸出手去,问:“明,是你吗?”她连忙按亮台灯起床,却不见了丈夫的影子。
她走近那束锁灵玫瑰,玫瑰好好地插在花瓶里,但花瓣上已满是眼泪般的水滴。
几天后,叶露下班回家,一进门,林子就送上了一束七彩玫瑰,说:“这是我店里新到的七彩玫瑰,送给你。
”然后,林子走向那束锁灵玫瑰,轻轻地说,“你放心吧,我会像你当初一样好好爱她、保护她的。
”
这时,叶露看见,那束锁灵玫瑰从花瓶中冉冉升起,向着打开的窗口飞了出去。
玫瑰飞出窗外,在溶溶的月光里,在徐徐的微风中,轻轻摇摆,好像在跟她挥手告别……
