逆行招魂(1/18)

乌程县是个说大不大、说小不小的县城，紧挨着颇为兴旺的归安县，车旅之人来往甚多，近些年来仿佛也顺带沾了些财气，来此置地购产的人越来越多；到了傍晚，孩子们下了学堂，家家户户备炊，日子倒也安稳。
                                                                                                                                                                天边被晚霞映得红彤彤，寒冬总算是过去了。
                                                                                                                                                                一个驼背的小个子老头不住地在路边张望，来回踱步，唉，这会子总该到了吧。从接了少爷的信儿已有半个月，快马加鞭地估摸着后天能到，短短十多天就跑死了两匹快马。没想到上午得了信儿，说是少爷已经到了省府，不日抵达，他才早早地候在门外。
                                                                                                                                                                路边有推车的汉子经过，“李叔等谁呐，也不家去吃饭去？”
                                                                                                                                                                老头冲他笑着摆摆手，街里街坊的，“大志今儿可回得早，我啊，等我侄子呢，饭晚些再吃不迟。”寒暄过后便散了。
                                                                                                                                                                远处有淡淡尘土扬起，李叔抖了抖袖子迎了上去，表情严肃，迎面奔来一匹枣红大马，马背上的正是燕淮——李叔口中的“少爷”。他穿黑色骑装，满脸烟尘疲惫，却掩不住阴柔俊美的脸散发出的光华，眼睛也是神采奕奕的。他翻身下马，然后把蒙面的女子抱好，快步走进院子里，李叔也接着牵马跟了进去，把门关好。
                                                                                                                                                                燕淮把怀里的女子安放在床上，再替她盖上一层松软的棉被，李叔看在眼里心里纳闷，少爷一向冷漠，怎么会对这个祭玉之人这么体贴温存呢？倒像是丈夫在照顾生病的妻子似的。他原是岳玄宗前任宗主的护卫，自从十多年前的血腥之夜他把二十年的阳寿过给少爷以后，少爷越发变得不像从前了，简直就是换了一个人，他在心里叹口气。
                                                                                                                                                                “李叔。”一道光在深沉幽暗的眼底快速闪过，他问道：“我不在的日子里，宗里怎么样了？”
                                                                                                                                                                “回少爷，大小姐岳柔被囚于冰河宫水牢。”
