A THOUSAND TUNNELS CHANGED EVERYTHING
_ Chapter 6 _
...(.(.Mysterious Man)...
The rest of the man's body was still moving, it seemed like the sky had yet to completely take his life. Everyone watched it close their eyes, unable to see it.
Meyla who could not stand still in the water, now came out while adjusting her breath. The regulated breathing quickly stopped because he again inhaled the smell of fresh blood that had just been spread.
Everyone saw his presence a little happy, but again sad, confused look on their faces and sad. On the other hand they are confused with themselves who expect more with him. While sad they appear for fear to speak to him.
“Why do you like to be afraid so...yeah..who is not afraid of the events in front of you..had, come come with me...”papnya who then dive to the bottom again.
The others also did not comment or object, they quickly followed Meyla swimming.
-
After being cut, He gave instructions by pointing at the gap and telling them to follow slowly. Everyone swam and followed him. Until they come out of the bottom of the water.
“Is everyone safe?” Ask.
Everyone nodded.
After feeling safe, he sighed ‘Really tensed’ his mind.
On the other hand, a woman spoke to him. “hmmm....Neng, why is the water here shrinking?” said it.
Meyla heard the words, looked down and found that the water was now only on her plate.‘Strange.what happened now’ his mind.
Everyone panicked back. Again they tried to quickly escape, someone who from behind suddenly ran forward and destroyed the atmosphere by pushing people in front of him.
“Go...Go awayl..I don't want to die, I want to go back, where is the Tunnel.Where is the Tunnel...where?.....” he spoke using a tone of fear that made everyone also afraid. Including Meyla.
Everyone saw where he was going without reminding himself not to panic. After running far away from them. Everyone heard the sound again this time.
The tunnel in front of them is different, which when a few tunnels ago there was light even dim. But now that they saw the tunnel from a distance it was already dark no one could guess what was in front of them.
The longer the water recedes, there is no more water that makes the body float.
“What happened to the Man.Why We did not hear his yelling...or his surrender say” said one of the people.
“No one can guess what happened to him”
Sighing, Meyla again ventured. “Let me check it” he said.
Wanting to step away, Meyla was confronted with someone from behind. “Do not again.you endanger yourself, pity your parents..let me check it” said a man who confronted him.
Meyla was silent. While others agreed, some even wanted to help. About four people stepped down the tunnel, where the puddles were now up to their knees. The rest are waiting for results.
“Aren't you afraid of this match?” Ask a woman to Meyla.
Auctioning. Meyla replied “Of course there was fear but I came with my parents”
“Then...why did you from earlier act brave”tapnya again. This time Meyla straightened her body. He was confused as to why these people looked strange. He was not entirely brave, even if it were to be honest, by now his hands were already trembling. Not because of the temperature of the water, but all the events that always appear before him.
“I...I do not dare, only I do not want to see many people shed blood again.
“It should be if you are afraid to just talk” said a man standing from afar. Meyla nodded.
The women sat tired, while the men stood. The water no longer calmed, dried up on their feet.
“See the water has subsided, what do you think happened there?” said another man.
Another man who heard him replied “Maybe the tunnel to nine hundred one is closed”
“Any yes.not that we should have found the Tunnel, why now the mission that arrived must be more than twice”
“Iya is right..from the Nine Hundred Tunnels only this Tunnel is a strange”.
Meyla was just listening to what they were talking about. He was immersed in his mind going nowhere.
-
Thirty minutes they waited. No one came back. The four people who left had no sound at all.
“What They die?” say someone.
“Note your talk, They won't die that easily”
“You are right..then why did they take so long?”
Meyla stood up, she couldn't wait anymore. “Better we together go” he said,
When they wanted to step up, they were shocked by the tide that had come out of nowhere.
“Lah...why did this water go back up, did they find anything?”
They also rushed to run. While Meyla, observing behind her saw the gap they entered. The gap out of nowhere was tightly sealed not giving any water gap to enter and again strangely, the gap was closed from when.
Because he still wanted to observe further, someone pulled him over. “Ayuk...we must see with”ucap Girl sitting next to him while waiting.
He was pulled hard and ran against his opponent's run. The situation right now is dark. Meyla was just following the person who pulled her. Although she did not know each other, Meyla felt that the person who pulled her was nice.
In the Tunnel there was no sound of people talking, only the sound of footsteps, replying to each other. ‘What because it's dark, or because their focus doesn't speak at all’ Meyla's mind.
The person who pulled it, stopped. Meyla also stopped, confused. He ventured to ask “Is there anything?”
The man in front of him did not answer. Instead of taking his hand off from holding Meyla.
Because it was dark, Meyla slightly stopped, she was confused as to what not to go forward. And again at this time his position in the middle of the road, not on the left or right side.
Feeling something was wrong he shouted “DID YOU GUYS FIND SOMETHING?”. His screams echoed, but there was no answer.
“Actually what happened” his mind.
Since no one retaliated, he took the initiative to walk down the road while touching the wall, so as not to get lost. Haven't had time to touch the wall, he felt someone take his outstretched hand. The right hand he used to touch the wall was gently welcomed by someone.
Shocked, and immediately pulling the hand, Meyla felt that the person who took her hand did not want to take it off. It even pulls and leads him forward.
Out of shock and fear, Meyla almost fell to the front. While closing his eyes, he felt himself falling on a body, precisely in someone's chest. And again he felt that this person's body was a little familiar to him.
“You...”ucap Meyla, but not ignored by the people in front of him. Meyla knew that the person in front of her was a man, because of the way she held Meyla's hand, and hugged her to help differently. If it's a woman, Meyla knows a girl's hand must be the same size as her. A man is bigger than his hand. And again if the woman, Meyla must be helped with the other hand, but if the man would be willing to help with his body though. But sometimes men even directly pull his hand to hold so as not to fall.
Knowing the man in front of her, Meyla pushed herself away and did not lean back like she had just. He felt that he was too comfortable leaning near a man. He doesn't know if other people are giving the same thing.
All this time, he never touched anything else leaning quietly near the man, and only this time he experienced it. And strangely the man who always made him comfortable did not speak or give him a little time to get to know.
Meyla who had been away, but her right hand was still held gently by the mysterious man in front of her. Take him slowly forward.
Because Meyla felt that this mysterious man in front of her would not hurt her. He also followed the man. The water has been rising for a long time, and now it has reached his thighs.
“Why now the water is going up.padahat it was receding”benak Meyla.
He glanced up to see, there was nothing there, only a dark color filling in. Meyla felt a little dizzy looking at all the dark colors in all directions. He felt that his eyes were still closed. He quickly approached the man who was pulling him slowly forward.
With bruk..Meyla hit the guy's back. The man in front of him stopped. Meyla buried her head on the man's back. He spoke “It's not necessary to feel weird, I just borrowed your back for a while, my eyes ached at seeing the darkness. And again you alone appeared suddenly in front of me and took my right hand without permission. Walk...and I. ask..... sorry” he said.
The man in front of him heard it again walking slowly. While Meyla guessed behind while continuing to immerse her face.
“I feel, if I take the opportunity to feel comfortable with this Man.But strange also, who would approach me by chance like this, is that guy just helping?” his mind.
“And again.Why the clothes are not wet, my clothes are all wet. As well as others too, it is impossible for thirty minutes that clothes can dry. And again now the tide, has reached my thigh, why do I feel the way like there is no obstacle”
“The grip is too light and a little.umm...agh...mad too I'm near this unidentified man”the deal again.
On the way, no one spoke to each other, still silent unmoved. But the sound of the knives that meet each other, now stronger, harder to make telingga and feather kunduk Meyla stand. Not afraid of ghosts or anything. But because he imagined the sound of the knife slashing through your body slowly.
The man in front of him stopped again. Like waiting. Then walk again. After a few steps, walk again. It repeated many times. Meyla leisurely followed, as her head was deep in the man's back. He did not want to look around. The sound of the knife crashing was still resounding strongly.
His right hand was still gently held. And the man's body didn't make him feel uneasy. So comfortably Meyla just followed not wanting to mess up her current state.
After a long walk, stop, and walk again. They also stopped. The man in front of him turned around. Meyla returned to her position. Although his hands were still clasped, the man in front of him did not want to let go. He moved forward towards Meyla.
The water reached him, and he saw no light at all. Heard the sound of water that seemed like someone was approaching. Meyla's a little backwards. Yet another hand touched his waist and brought him closer together. Meyla's eyes widened again, slightly not believing what was happening. The man's hand that was holding her now loosened and the hand again hugged her. Like not wanting to part. “There was a” Ask Meyla slowly to find that the man in front of her was acting strangely.
After feeling that impromptu piercing, Meyla was startled by someone pulling her. While muttering “Why Neng is out of my hands anyway..Neng fortunately survived, ayuk.see they found another tunnel, soon we will survive” he said.
Meyla who was still digesting the situation, now followed someone who pulled her. Even though his body did not want to move.
After not long, now the light appeared even though it was dim. And after coming out of everything, Meyla found people gathered and her parents waiting with smiles.
Despite seeing that, Meyla quickly turned her attention towards the back. I want to see something happen actually.
Looking at the tunnel he entered, a barrier suddenly appeared. I want to close the previous section. Meyla was not bothered about it, what made her disturbed was the dim light and displayed some unnaturally impaled humans.
Something was pierced in his mouth and stomach. Something was pierced in his stomach and chest. Some were stabbed in the right thigh and stabbed in the chest and his head was destroyed by a stab. And again someone he knew, The man who helped him stood behind him.
Meyla wanted to run and catch him, but her parents blocked her and hugged her. Meyla saw clearly that a voice that sounded like a knife rubbing against another knife was indeed there. And all those knives are still moving. While the body that has been pierced by a knife can only be started in all directions.
Meyla widened her eyes, confused and difficult to understand what was happening. The man who helped her, hugged her, and held her gently still stayed there until the barrier closed.
Before long, the water that reached the chin, now shrunk and its height up to his waist. His parents still hugged him, while his Uncle and Aunt approached and asked him for news.
“How are you doing?.how hard are you going through it” asked The Aunt.
Meyla did not answer while others were discussing, because currently the Tunnel is only two and has no numbers. The tunnel is higher when there is no water. From the ground up it may be about three or four stories high.
“Now the Tunnel is only two, which one will we choose?” ask Someone.
“What if this time, let Neng who just. He can choose it”Ucap one of the Men.
They looked at Meyla who now seemed to not want to talk. Feeling strange, they approached and questioned his condition.
“Lenapa?.what happened to you, Neng..You are okay” Formal greeting from a Man.
“True...Do you feel anything strange?” ask the woman who pulled him.
Meyla's father and mother did not reply, Both her Uncle and Aunt focused both tunnels.
“There's something I want to ask you “ said Meyla to the woman who pulled her.
“Iya please” said the woman.
“Why...why did you take my hand off in the middle of the road, why didn't you answer my call, why did you walk like nothing happened.do you guys already know this incident, why did the other five men die, while you survived. Though we are in the dark.what really happened.explain to me” said Meyla, without rambling and his tone became cold.
