Bu 25 Work: Diving the Springs

*Month Worshiper's Cheer (Mother's Work)* 

 

“Where are Kakang Rawil and Sister Wangiwulan?” alma Fatara suddenly asked her four best friends. He just appeared, know-how standing between Anjengan and Gagap Ayu who was roasting pork.

“Brother codes!” pekik Anjengan to jump from his seat.

“Ca-ca-beautiful!” pekik Gagap Ayu as well. However, Gagap Ayu scolded him after the jump, so the jump did not stutter.

“Hahahak!” alma's laughter widened to see their surprise, especially hearing the Swuttering Ayu. “Enak once you startled her like that, Ayu!”

“That means I be-be-successful,” said Gagap Ayu.

“Success what?”

“Be-be-managed to perfect my beauty-to-be. Ja-ja-so I ti-ti-never will lu-lu-forget to praise in-in-my-self, ji-jik ..”

“Why are you disgusted?” ask Alma.

“Bu-bu-not that I mean. Ji-ji-if until I te-te-shocked like this,” ralat Gagap Ayu.

“You're so fad that it appears like a demon. Wear black-black anyway. Still lucky your skin is white, if black anyway, perfect you into a Demon Shabby!” hardik Anjengan's.

“Hahaha! Just this time I heard there's a Rosy Demon!” alma said while laughing. Then ask again, “Where is Kakang Rawil?”

“Just go,” Anjengan replied.

“Then, where are your two lovers?” ask Alma.

“Wasting enjoyment,” Anjengan replied.

“Hihihi!” Stuttering Ayu laughed. Then he said, “Ke-to-pleasure scent ne-ne-hell.”

“Which do you want to eat, Alma? Bird or banana? Both are delicious,” bargain Anjengan.

“Why can it be equally scrumptious?” ask Alma.

“Ka-ka-if eating bu-bu-birds gets into mu-mu-mouth, ka-ka-if eating pi-pi-banana ju-ju-also goes into mu-mu-mouth.”

“Hahaha! Don't fool me, Ayu. Eating a bird or banana will get into your mouth. Eating nuts also goes into the mouth. All in the mouth!”

“There are ma-ma-eaten ti-ti-no go-to-mouth.”

“What?”

“Ma-ma-eating place se-se-like him,” said Gagap Ayu while pointing at Anjengan.

“Hahahak!” the Laughter of Alma Fatara.

“Begging to be raped, huh?! Here, let me skin your clothes!” snapped Anjengan while moving about to reach the body of Gagap Ayu because of annoyance.

“Hihihi!” giggled Ayu while running away.

“Hey, already! Eat you guys, I'm gonna have you fight tonight!” exciting Alma.

“Hah!” shock Anjengan and Stuttering Ayu while simultaneously looking at Alma.

“For what invites us to fight?” ask Anjengan.

“There are opponents in the Bitter Springs. We'll be there tonight too!”

“Oooh!” both of them were mangosteen.

“What's up, Alma?” juling Jitu asked who suddenly appeared from within the darkness of the forest.

Iwak Ngasin emerged from the darkness.

“Let's go to Bitter Springs!” bring Alma Fatara.

“Hah! Dark like this?” tanya Iwak Ngasin was surprised.

“There are opponents we have to face. Bring torch!” alma toilet.

“Tu-tu-wait! You were bi-bi-said to eat first!” the Ayu Stuttering Protest.

“Not so, over!” said Alma.

“Ayo departing!” yelling Anjengan also who has brought some food in his right hand, while his left hand has held a torch of wood.

“Be-be-figure!” yelled Stuttering Ayu anyway while hurriedly taking food.

“Come come on!” juling Jitu.

Without comment, Iwak Ngasin immediately retrieved one wood from the bonfire.

The five of them went through the darkness of the night upstream.

“Say Brother Fragrant, you went to his house because Kakang Rawil's family attacked?” ask Iwak Ngasin.

“You know what caused Raden Runok Ulung to attack the residence of Raden Gondo Sego?” ask Alma.

“Not, because of the death of Kakang Tongkat Biru,” said Alma.

Surprised Iwak Ngasin, Anjengan and Gagap Ayu.

“You mean, his brother Kakang Rawil who chased Juling Jitu died? You can kill him, Jitu?” ask Iwak Ngasin.

“Bu-bu-not me who killed him!” sangkal Juling Jitu fast.

“Ja-ja-don't mock me!” hardik Gagap Ayu's.

“I'm not mocking you, I'm surprised!” refute Juling Jitu sewot.

“Even when the Blue Stick Brother died, I prevent you from approaching his corpse and do not tell it to Kakang Rawil, because the problem can get worse. At first I suspected that Kakang Rawil's family would accuse us of being the killer, but they instead accused Kakang Wangi's family, ” explained Alma as she continued to walk along the riverbank to head upstream.

“Then who killed him, Alma?” ask Anjengan.

“Former brother Raden Runok Ulung. It seems to be based on a past grudge. I had time to follow all the way to the outside of Kademangan, but they could feel my Black Ball,” Alma replied.

“Then what about those two families? Did they kill each other?” ask Anjengan.

“Just hurt each other. I managed to stop them for a while,” replied Alma.

“So, you guys did not have time to search in the Bitter Springs?” ask Juling Jitu.

“No. We just peeked at the angels bathing there. Hahaha!” alma answered and laughed.

“Author?” re-call Iwak Ngasin and Juling Jitu at the same time quickly.

“Hahahak! You guys want to peek too?” alma asked with a laugh.

“Hehehe!” the two young men were just grinning.

“But, you must have no taste when you saw the angels were not dressed, because they were all men. Hahahak!” alma's laughter crumpled. “They are Ragabidak, the older brother of Sis Wangi and his temples. They also seek out the Moon-worshiping Keris. But they failed, there was a snake in the spring.”

“What magic switch?” ask Juling Jitu.

“Ya snake magic. That's why I invite you guys,” said Alma lightly.

“You mean, you invited us to face the snake?” tanya Anjengan concluded.

“Iya. Later I dive, you guys keep watch if the snake appears. I tell you, the snake is resistant to powerful blows, you have to gang up on it,” Alma said.

“Ke-to-why should ma-ma-night? Tomorrow le-le-more ba-ba-good, more te-te-light,” asked Gagap Ayu.

“I guess, if it's night, the navel is easier to see. And also so that the two families' feuds affairs are quickly completed,” replied Alma.

Not long after, they finally arrived at the edge of the huge Bitter Tears. The conditions in that place were pitch-black, except for the light of the two torch flames they were carrying.

“Thrilling once,” said Iwak Ngasin while looking around.

“Searching dark-dark in a lake this big?” said Anjengan pessimist.

“Just you guys beware!” alma Fatara said then knew it had jumped into the water of the lake.

Jburs!

“Yeah, just play jump!” gerutu Anjengan's.

“Wadduh, this is really stressful,” complained Juling Jitu.

“We better increase the number of torches,” proposed Iwak Ngasin.

Juling Jitu and Gagap Ayu then moved to take the wood to be used as an additional torch.

Meanwhile, in the darkness of the water, Alma Fatara deployed the science of the Golden City Punch, but was left entrenched in his left hand. The dazzling golden rays made the darkness in the water turn into light. The description was even clearly visible from above the surface, so that the four companions above could follow the point of Alma's existence.

Unlike all humans, except for Wiwi Kunai, Alma has the ability to swim as fast as fish. At that time Alma also swam quickly in an effort to find signs of the existence of heirlooms.

It didn't seem easy. Until Alma swam for fifteen minutes, there was no result. Above, the four humans just sat and stood continuously watching into the water.

“Alma getting to the middle,” comments Juling Jitu.

Zeuz!

Suddenly the four young men were shocked when they heard a loud hissing sound, like the sound of a snake hiss but as if using a speaker.

“What is it?!” peekik Anjengan suddenly panicked.

“Li-li-see it!” point Iwak Ngasin stuttered while pointing to the middle of the lake.

Suddenly they all looked towards Iwak Ngasin. They faintly saw a black shadow within the darkness above the surface of the lake water. They saw a black shadow in the darkness.

“Hah! It's u-u-ular!” call Ayu Stuttering while pointing anyway, when that pair of shadow eyes glow red.

“Seraaang!” yelled Anjengan, but just shouted.

“That's far, Fat!” juling Jitu.

However, unfinished they argued, the red-eyed snake figure moved its head into the water, towards the dazzling golden center of light at the bottom of the lake. (BH)
