硝梟綺譚研究室 • 硝梟綺譚研究室(五)【西瓜怪談:埃及植瓜幻術(中)】
最后更新: 2023年11月6日 上午12:40

上篇提到,《沙門空海之大唐鬼宴》的禍端,來自「敦煌西瓜血案」,小說故事概略是,唐玄宗為了一顆西瓜,逼死黃鶴之妻,黃鶴誓言復仇,使用不當手段生下女兒楊玉環,而楊玉環的美色致使盛唐衰敗。

跨越半世紀後,空海和橘逸勢在洛陽城的市集初遇丹翁(丹龍/黃鶴之徒),空海破解丹翁「植瓜術」,則丹翁將計就計認輸,卻把剛砍下的兩顆狗頭,施術迷幻兩人,是以空海、橘逸勢以為自己拿得兩顆西瓜。

文史學家研究古代希伯來語文本、埃及墓葬文物和中世紀插圖等,結論出最早史料記載,西瓜出現於非洲喀拉哈里沙漠,且古埃及王國之下埃及(利比亞地區)稱之為「GURMA」,甚至圖坦卡蒙國王陵也發現西瓜種子。當時非洲對於西瓜的需求不難理解,沙漠中最珍貴資源──「水」──西瓜可視為一個個袖珍蓄水器,故別名「法老王果實」、「寒瓜」。

植瓜幻術起源,可推至古埃及、古印度時期,此兩國乃古代文明的幻術中心,是以丹翁的植瓜術,使用西瓜為道具,十分合理。然而彼時西瓜在唐代,仍舊屬於稀有品,有一說南宋時期,西瓜才在長江地區大規模種植。

西瓜的功效,不僅有食用、藥用──臺灣海面漂浮的西瓜,請勿撿取!

海巡搜救人員找不着溺水失蹤者或落海屍體時,偶時會進行民俗儀式,「屍瓜尋屍」。丟西瓜入海,並呼叫失蹤者、亡者之名,當西瓜停止流動、定點某處,極詭異,屍體就在西瓜附近。(按

香港亦存此民俗儀式。)

香蕉你箇芭樂、鳳梨哈誰蘋果,身為水果王國之一的臺灣,為何不選其他水果,非選西瓜?民俗說法──

1)西瓜閩南語諧音「屍瓜」。

2)亡靈喜歡吃西瓜(?)。西瓜入海後,亡靈便會接受死亡事實,甘願地投胎轉世。硝梟本人認為此說較牽強,如若認同此說法的朋友們,咱們尊重彼此觀點。

3)海龍王喜歡吃西瓜(?)。祈求海龍王相助,早日尋回屍體。

或許真相真是「亡靈喜歡吃西瓜」,第一顆被丟入海裡的西瓜,究竟背負何種意義使命,硝梟才疏學淺,尚未查證和研究清楚,將持續焚膏繼晷鑽研,以求能稍微揭秘神話、傳奇和怪談的解答。
