About this title

Synopsis

天黑,别出门。

这句话在残老村流传了很多年,具体是从什么时候传下来的,已经无从考证。不过这句话却是真理,无需怀疑。

残老村的司婆婆看到夕阳一点点藏在山后,心里又紧张起来。随着夕阳落下,最后一缕阳光消失,天地间突然一下子寂静无比,没有任何声音。只见黑暗从西方缓缓的淹没过来,沿途吞噬山川河流道路树木,然后来到残老村,将残老村淹没。

残老村的四个角竖着四个古老石像,石像斑驳,年代久远,即便是司婆婆也不知道这石像是何人雕琢,何时竖在这里。

黑暗降临,四个石像在黑暗中散发出幽幽的光芒,石像依旧亮着,让司婆婆和村里的老者都松了口气。

村外的黑暗越发浓郁,但有了石像的光,残老村便还算是安全的。

突然,司婆婆耳朵动了动,呆了呆,失声道:"你们听,外面有个孩子的哭声!"

旁边的马老摇头道:"不可能,你听错了......咦,真有婴儿的哭声!"

村外的黑暗中传来婴儿的哭声,村里其他老人除了耳聋的都听到了这个哭声,老人们面面相觑,残老村偏僻荒凉,怎么会有婴儿出现在附近?

"我去看看!"

司婆婆激动起来,踮着小脚跑到村子的一个石像边,马老连忙过去:"司老太婆,你疯了?天黑了,出了村就是死!"

"背着这个石像出村,黑暗里的东西怕石像,我一会半会死不了!"

司婆婆弯腰,想要将石像背起,不过她是个驼背,背不起来。马老摇了摇头:"还是我来吧。我背着石像陪你去!"

一旁又有一个老者一瘸一拐的走过来,道:"马爷,你只有一条胳膊,背石像撑不了多久,我两手齐全,还是我来背。"

马老瞪他一眼:"死瘸子,你断了条腿,能走吗?我虽然只有一条胳膊,但这条胳膊力气大得很!"

他独臂将石像抱起,稳了稳步子,石像难以想象的沉重:"司老太婆,咱们走!"

"别叫我死老太婆!瘸子,哑巴,你们大家都要当心些,村里少了一个石像,千万不要被黑暗里的东西摸进来!"

......

马老和司婆婆走出残老村,黑暗中不知有什么古怪的东西围绕两人游走,但被石像的光芒一照,便吱吱怪叫退回黑暗之中。

两人循着那哭声前进,走出百十步,来到一条大江边,那婴儿的哭声就是从江边传来。石像散发出幽幽的光芒,照不太远,两人细细捕捉声音方位,沿着这条江向上游走去,走出几十步,哭声就在附近,马老独臂已经很难支撑。司婆婆眼睛一亮,看到一丁点荧光,那是一个篮子停在江岸边,荧光从篮子里传来,哭声也是从篮子里传来。

"真有一个孩子!"

司婆婆上前,提起篮子,却微微一怔,没能提起来,那篮子下面是一条被江水泡得发白的手臂,正是这条手臂将篮子和篮子里的孩子托起,一直托到岸边。

"放心吧,孩子安全了。"司婆婆对水下的那个女子低声说。

那具女尸似乎听到了她的话,手掌松开,被江水冲走,消失在黑暗中。

司婆婆提起篮子,篮子里是一个襁褓中的婴儿,襁褓上面放着一面玉佩,玉佩散发出荧光。这枚玉佩的光芒与石像的光芒很相似,但是却要微弱很多,正是玉佩保护着篮子里的孩子不受黑暗中的东西的侵害。

只是玉佩的光芒很弱,只能保护得了孩子,却保护不了那个女人。

"是个男孩。"

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
