Alma's Journey Looking for a Mother

Master Bule 13: The Headquarters of the Grasshopper Rat

*Golden Moon Hunt (Master Bule)*

Yono ran small like an overexcited deer after helping the suri cucumber in the farmer's field. It enters a forest area full of sweet plants that dangle tightly from top to bottom, so that it forms like a thick wall of sweet plants.

“Hoya hoya hoi!” yono screeched while waving his hands towards the top, as if greeting someone who was on top of a large tree.

“Hoi!” another voice sahut from the top of the tree, but the owner of the voice was not seen his figure. He is not a dedemit, but a man who is indeed hiding in carrying out his duties as a guard.

Yono continued walking half-run. Arriving at one of the points at the bottom of the curtain of sweet plants, Yono immediately nodded and walked in. The edges of Yono appeared in a small hole that his body could pass through. The hole is located on the bottom of a large tree.

As it turns out, Yono got into a small settlement environment, but was confined by a forest habitat. There were some simple wooden houses, there were even houses made on top of large trees in the neighborhood.

Uniquely, all humans who are seen in the environment are mini-dwarf people.

“Yono Back!” call a dwarf woman while walking to Yono. Women are beautiful for their type of category. He choked and talked. The woman with white hair was wearing white clothes. He was named Klenting Bengi, Yono's wife.

Bengi's Clenting Height was the same as Yono's, but the woman's body was more contained and dense.

“You delivered Mighty Bengkah disciple to which gate, Kakang?” ask Klinging Bengi.

“Daughter Gate only,” Yono replied. “Padahan, they just add a little payment if I want to take it to the Prince's Gate, rather than get lost on Halimun Road.”

The two went to the largest wooden house in the neighborhood. Although the largest, but the size is adequate to be lived by four small people.

"Hoya hoya hoi, Chief!" yono shouted in front of the house on the front of the roof ridge was attached to a wooden carving in the form of a rooster head.

From inside the house came a man who was a dwarf, but old because he was moustached and had a white beard. His mustache and beard were bigger than his physique. He wore a life-size dark green robe and his head was wrapped around a green turban without a tail. It was Jongkol Pedih, the Head of the Turtle Rat.

Pedih Kongkol stood handsomely dignified with both hands clutched behind his waist. Actually not linked, because not until because both hands shortened.

"How are you doing, Yono?" ask Jongkol Pedih.

"Always smoothly, Chief. The Mighty Disciples of the Enchantment I deliver to the Gate of the Princess. I also just got an order to take the Deputy Chairperson of Bukit Dua University to Alam Digdaya Temple, but they chose to leave early tonight," reported Yono.

"It looks like the colleges in Bukit Tujuh Kepala began to crowd sending messengers to Alam Digdaya Temple," said Jongkol Pedih thought.

"I know it's been four parties who sent their men there. The Golden Moon School first entered about five days ago, but they have not yet come out of the Prince's Gate" said Yono.

"They are too arrogant and underestimate the services of the Grasshopper Rat" said Jongkol Pedih with an expression as if to hate the people of the Golden Moon College.

Pedih Jongkol then looked around, as if he was looking for someone.

"Pudding!" jongkol Pedih shouted to a dwarf who was sitting casually on top of a tree house.

"Ready, Chief!" the man said a thick mustachioed dwarf on top of a tree house.

The man named Pudding was immediately playing jump, even though it was too high for his height. Apparently he used a red cloth that was used as a makeshift parachute, making his body fall more restrained.

Jlegs!

Riding on dry leafy soil, Pudding quickly ran cutely to the front of the Chairman's house. He stopped by Bengi's Klenting side and directly patted Yono's wife's arm.

"Huh, what the hell is wearing makeup? You think I'm sambal ijo?" rutuk Klenting Bengi while frowning funny.

"Haha!" laughter Pudding. Then he asked Jongkol Pedih, "What's up, Chief? I'm ready to get married!"

"If you want to get married, find your own wife, don't ask me!" snarled Jongkol Pedih.

"But my future wife is already married to Yono, Chairman!" whistled Pudding.

"That's the name, Klenting is not your future wife, but my future wife!" yono said with a smile winning.

"Good, Chief!" said Pudding obediently.

"Go!"

"Good, Chief!"

After making a salute, Pudding immediately ran away to take his two friends.

Fooong ...!

Suddenly there was a sound like a big trumpet.

The appearance of the voice shocked the Head of the Grasshopper Rat and all the residents of the place. Evidently, quickly the humans who are in the outer house. They all looked up, even though they were not looking for anything.

With the output of all residents of the place, it is also seen that in the neighborhood there are also children who are also midgets.

The wife of the Chief of the Dwarf Rats who was also an old woman appeared from inside the house.

Fooong ...!

"Some one's spoiling!" yono shouted loudly suddenly.

Jongkol Pedih, Yono, Bengi Klenting and the other citizens quickly ran around and flashed away to some large pohong stalks growing on the outskirts of the neighborhood.

Like non-humans, the little humans moved very agile like a bunch of monkeys. They numbered more than twenty people. Some of the women and all the children remained in the neighborhood.

Pedih Jongkol and his group of people called the Grasshopper Rat jumped into another tree, then penetrated the walls of thick sweet plants. Afterwards, they sprung up outside the environment at various points, on tall tree branches, on tree branches, and below. Some choose to hide themselves behind thick shrubs. That's part of the strategy to be on guard in case a fight should happen.

Jongkol Pedih with Yono and ten other dwarves stood facing the group of people in yellow uniforms. The men were armed with metal plates in hand, indicating that they were ready to fight.

The group of twenty Gold Moon School disciples was led by a main disciple who was none other than Gudibara, the fellow of Buto Renggut and Jermung Sawa. Gudibara was assigned to go give a warning to the swarming Rat group.

At Gudibara's feet was a small body dressed in dark blue. There were a lot of blood stains on his body and clothes. His typical face looked stern and his mouth was smitten with blood.

"What did you do to my man, Golden Moon Disciple?!" jongkol Pedih. His face and pair of reddened eyes held back anger.

"This is a warning from us to you, Jongkol Pedih!" exclaiming Gudibara. "If you are still helping to show the Black Finger disciples the way to infiltrate, then we will not hesitate to take your lives. This time it's just a warning!"

"Gabara! If you dispute our work, you are the first to do it. Tell the Gold Moon School Chair, antagonizing the Grasshopper Rat when we have no enemies is a big loss!" yono Exclamation did not lose the bluff.

"If there are dead members of the Shrub Rat in your hands, then you will feel what the true prowess of the Shrub Rat is!" yang Klinging Bengi also showed his angry face.

"Haha! What's so great about abnormal humans like you?" gudibara said while laughing disdainfully.

Jongkol Pedih and his citizens just stared intently full of anger at Gudibara and his troops.

Yono ran away to find their partner who was sprawled in front of Gudibara's feet.

"Jubalawo!" yono said when he found his partner's body badly injured by several sharp object incisions.

Gudibara let him smile as he looked at Yono helping his colleague named Jubalawo.

"Remember this warning, Jongkol Pedih. Destroying you is a young thing for us!" exclaimed Gudibara again to the Chief Rat of the Bushranger.

"You will regret this!" jongkol Pedih.

"Let's go home!" exclaimed Gudibara to his juniors. (BH)
