五十七 龙鳞</p>

清乾隆年间,关外锦州石龙山下杏山镇,有一货郎,姓陈名石,其只有一老母,母子相依为命。陈石年近弱冠,细目厚唇,鼻宽口阔,生性憨厚,实诚之极,人称其傻石儿。</p>

石儿肩挑货担早起晚归,贩山货至海岸,购海鲜贩回山下,往来贩之,每日往返百余里,然为养母,不辞辛苦,以此勉强为生。</p>

石儿家本有薄田两亩,然却荒芜不耕,老母谓其曰:“吾家两亩田瘠薄之极,收成轻微,难以为生,汝已至婚娶之年,只有此小生意能有余资,久聚方能娶妻矣。”其母年过六旬,贤惠慈祥,常训石儿,非己之物不可取之,彼之饭菜不可食之。石儿牢记母训,遵行之。</p>

镇内以货郎为业者多矣,一日晨,石儿随本镇诸货郎至海岸行商。中午时分,挑货担至角村码头,一路劳累,倍感饥渴,诸货郎至饭馆食之,石儿虽有零钱,然不舍用之,遂坐于扁担之上,取出老母所备之干粮食之,干粮乃烧烤之黏饽,香甜可口,正津津有味食之时,忽闻山崩地裂之巨响,轰响震人心魄,石儿一怔,起身视之,见码头众人向内奔逃,高呼:“快逃,海啸至矣!”石儿忙挑担随人流奔之,身后海浪汹涌迫近,石儿与众逃至一高坡,方喘息脱险。</p>

至傍晚时分,海浪退归,码头一片狼藉,破船烂艄堆积如山,散落货物遍地,众下坡争抢之,然石儿严遵母训,非己之物不可取之。只石儿未下坡,呆立痴视,忽见坡下有一发光物,闪耀刺目,细视之,原一大鱼鳞片也,其下坡捡起,见此鱼鳞大如芭蕉扇,厚如薄饼,半透明,如此大鱼鳞,石儿生平未见之,其心思:此乃海产,非人所遗也,归吾所有,吾母必不责之。遂收起,置于担筐之内。</p>

石儿得此鱼鳞,暑热时则用其扇汗,凉风速至,雷雨时则用其遮雨,雨不落身,雨水竟避身而远落之,刮风时,竟身不沾尘,怪哉!诸货郎见之,皆以为鱼鳞护其身,称石儿得宝矣!此事不胫而走,镇内皆知。老母闻之,谓石儿曰:“闻此鱼鳞为宝,定有人所遗,若遇失主,应物归原主。”石儿不以为然曰:“何来宝贝?乃闲人误传之。”</p>

次日午后,石儿挑担独归,中途遇一老妪与一年轻女子,似母女,老妪头发花白,身着花格长衫,女子发髻高绾,饰金钗,容貌靓丽,身穿白衣裤。至近前,老妪指货筐内鱼鳞,问曰:“货郎,此物吾可详视否?”石儿点首允之,老妪持鱼鳞反复细视后,曰:“此物鬻于吾,汝随意出价,吾皆应之。”石儿坦言曰:“此鱼鳞吾从海岸捡之,若喜爱,送与老太,分文不取。”女子曰:“汝白送,吾为心不忍。”遂取头上金钗欲易之。石儿推让,坚持白送,女子不应,双方僵持不下。老妪曰:“货郎如此仁厚,吾实难接受,请收之,吾不购也。”遂将鱼鳞置返筐内,携女子远去矣。</p>

镇内有一惯贼者,姓秦名六,闻石儿得宝,欲窃之,窥伺良久。见石儿挑担归,尾随其后,伺机下手。入夜,石儿与母安歇,秦六撬门入室,趁母子酣睡之时,从货筐内窃出鱼鳞,得手后用布包之,连夜奔锦州珠宝店,欲鉴宝后出手,鬻高价。中午时分,秦六进一家珠宝店,呈上,谓老板曰:“此乃一鱼鳞宝也,能避雨防尘,请鉴之,若价合适,吾愿出手易银也。”老板解包,持鱼鳞反复细视之,冷笑曰:“此鱼鳞乃用木板雕刻后,着色而成也,一文不值,休来诈骗!”遂掷回,秦六辩曰:“此宝贝也,何来木雕?”老板愠然,持鱼鳞用力掰之,掰成两半,露木纹,喝曰:“汝竟敢行骗至此!来人,将其逐出店门!”店伙计持棍乱打,将秦六逐出,秦六负痛,抱头窜之。</p>

石儿所遇母女,乃万年海龟与千年海蚌变化而成。此鱼鳞非鱼鳞,乃小龙王所蜕龙鳞也。海啸之时,小龙王正蜕鳞,不慎遗之一片,随波逐浪,漂向海岸,被石儿所捡,难怪能避雨防尘,被人视为宝也。小龙王发觉遗失一鳞片,即令龟仙与蚌仙子至凡间寻之。</p>

龟仙与蚌仙子返龙宫,向小龙王汇报之,详述与石儿所遇之经过,取出龙鳞,呈上曰:“石儿憨厚之极,欲白送,蚌仙子欲用金钗易之,其不允,其与蚌仙子推让之时,吾趁其不意,点路测一破船板,变成假龙鳞,模样同,吾偷梁换柱,将真匿之,将假还归,佯称不易也,遂归焉。”小龙王大感石儿诚,令龟仙与蚌仙子再返凡间,请石儿入龙宫,欲重谢之。</p>

石儿晨起,见房门开,鱼鳞失,知被盗,其不以为然,收拾货筐,备足干粮,仍如往常,担挑上路。至海岸,又遇老妪与年轻女子,石儿嗔曰:“昨日吾欲将鱼鳞白送汝,汝不依吾之意,昨夜被贼人盗之,今又来购,晚矣!”龟仙笑曰:“今非购鱼鳞也,实不相瞒,昨日吾以假换真,开玩笑耳,现鱼鳞物归原主,失主为致谢,特请货郎至府邸,请随老身前往。”石儿婉言拒曰:“理应归还,何必谢吾,吾货未出,无闲空,待日后有空再去不迟。”蚌仙子曰:“兄之货,小女全购矣,请将货送至吾家。”</p>
