第4章 工程师不问为什么（1/2）

诺文掂了掂手里的金属片。

这东西的密度很不讲道理，小小一片，重量却直追铅块。整块金属浑然一体，没有任何加工痕跡，看起来完全不像是这个世界的產物。

在表面之下，隱约能看见层层叠叠的苍白纹路，极度规整，平行延伸。

从两侧的边缘接口来看，它像是某种更大型造物的一部分。除此之外，暂时也看不出更多门道，得有一个放大镜才行。

诺文缓缓呼出一口气，將这块材质特殊的金属片贴身收好。

他实在没精力去分析这个了。

取出异物只是第一步，接下来还得观察伤口有没有发炎溃烂，希望不要留下后遗症...

“请先吃些东西吧。”

温柔的声音打断了他的思绪。

修女端著木盘走过来，厚实的黑麵包堆在盘子里，旁边还有一小罐莓果果酱。

“我是莱茵。”她將木盘放在诺文身边，转身去加热暖石，“你们今晚可以在这里好好休息。”

“谢谢。”诺文心中一暖，“麻烦你们了。”

他轻轻推了推身边的龙娘：“吃东西啦。要谢谢修女。”

“唔？哇！吃噠！”刚还在打瞌睡的安卡拉揉揉眼睛，立刻精神起来，“谢谢修女！”

她捧起麵包就往嘴里塞，欢快地咬了一大口，又用尾巴尖勾起果酱罐，直接往嘴里倒。

一块大麵包眨眼间就被吞了个乾乾净净。龙娘舔著手指，下意识地拿起第二块，却在嘴边犹豫地停住了。

她看看手里的麵包，又看看正在忙碌的莱茵。

修女的黑袍很宽大，但在她弯腰时，袍子下摆盪开，里面的脚踝却比她吃的树苗还要细。

安卡拉不自觉地用麵包对著莱茵的腰身比划了一下。

“我不饿啦。”她悄悄將麵包放回了木盘，小声对诺文说，“给你吃。你流了好多血。”

莱茵微微一顿，拿来在火炉边烤热的石块，放到诺文腿边，为他保暖，又去拿小小的毛毡。

“你们还是儘快离开比较好。”她一边忙碌，一边低声劝说。

“我走不远的。”诺文皱起眉头，以他现在的这条伤腿，离开村庄就等於自杀。“请放心，我不会白吃白住，我是个工匠，总能做些事情的。”

龙娘晃了晃尾巴，小声说：“我可以帮你们搬东西！很重的也没问题！”

“不是因为这个。”莱茵嘆了口气，紧紧捧著一枚小小的十字木片，“要收税了...到时候会发生不好的事情。”

见诺文皱眉沉思，修女的声音更低了。

“风林谷是我们最后的家，再被往山里赶，就养不活两百多鼠人了。”

她稍作停顿，忧鬱的目光投向窗外金黄的麦浪。

“我们只能给你们人类的领主交税，才被允许继续住在这里。可是税一年比一年重，麦子种得越好，收走的就越多...”

“他把我们当成会说话的牲畜。一旦交不出税，或者想要反抗，就会派士兵来...”

“你们不属於这里，不该被卷进来。”莱茵忧鬱的眼睛看向诺文。“所以请快走吧，在他们来之前，走到没人知道的地方去。”

安卡拉听得懵懵懂懂，眼神不断在两人身上游走。

良久，诺文无比认真地开口：“你们救了我，我一定会想办法帮忙。”
