Bamboo Flute Swordsman
Chapters 25. Godong Surgo Forest



When there was a fierce fight between Ki Rana and Gundul Hitam, Gundul Putih who had broken both hands rushed out of the way. Gundul Putih slipped between the houses of the residents and went towards the forest at the end of the village. The departure of Gundul Putih was separated from Jaka's supervision, because when it happened Jaka was observing the course of the fight.


“I'm sorry uncle, I missed the one in white. ” said Jaka regretfully.


"It's okay Jaka, maybe this is his luck. After all, he will not do much just by using both feet." replied Ki Rana.


The two then asked the residents to clean up the two corpses of Satan Gundul, not to forget Ki Rana gave some silver coins to the residents. After that Jaka and Ki Rana split up. Jaka will continue his journey westward while Ki Rana chasing towards the departure of White Gundul. Before they parted, Ki Rana again reminded Jaka to be careful.


***


The distance between Batang Hari Village and the next village is quite far, the two villages are separated by several small forests and large forests. Rarely do people dare to go through this forest alone. The chances of them reaching the next village are very small and close to zero percent.


There is news circulating that in the forest area there are many wild animals. Some say that the forest was made a nest by robbers. Ah I don't know, Jaka doesn't want to bother. Jaka continued his journey in a relaxed manner.


Does not feel the sun will soon return to the dispute. Orange rays paint beautifully on the western horizon. By now Jaka had arrived at the edge of a huge forest. This forest is known as Godong Surgo forest. This forest looks so beautiful with towering trees and birds flying back to its nest.


Jaka started to enter the forest when it was getting dark. Soon he was looking for a comfortable place to rest. After searching here and there, Jaka finally found a large enough angsana tree, then sat down under it.


"Kriuk. kriuk. "the voice of Jaka's stomach began to wriggle.


"Just sit down, you are... " Jaka spoke to his stomach, then laughed to himself.


Jaka got up and walked through the forest rather deep. Jaka was already used to living in the forest so there was currently no feeling of fear in him. Not long Jaka saw a herd of forest rabbits running away from him. Jaka crouched down and picked up two small stones the size of his thumb, quickly directing the stones towards the rabbit.


There was the sound of a rabbit groaning at the end of there when the stone that Jaka threw hit his head. Jaka immediately ran small and took two dead rabbits.


"I'm sorry, I have to eat you tonight." muttered Jaka and then returned to bring the angsana tree.


Jaka then collected small branches to make a fireplace. After producing enough embers, Jaka started roasting his hunted forest rabbit. Both of his hands began to be busy flipping through the grill, before long the aroma of roast meat began to crack out.


"Intensely, "Jaka's nose sniffed the scent of the roasted rabbit.


After it was ripe, Jaka took one roasted rabbit and started eating it. Slowly but surely one by one the rabbit meat into Jaka's mouth.


Suddenly from the side Jaka heard the sound of a broken dry twig being stepped on. Jaka did not pay much attention to it, even more cool to finish the roasted rabbit meat. According to Jaka's calculations, although there are criminals who are stalking him at this time is not something that endangers his life.


How not, if the person is a high-scientific criminal it is impossible to step on a dry twig until it breaks. Different things if the knowledge is still low, of course dry twigs will not be able to withstand the weight of his body.


Just now Jaka wanted to take the remaining rabbit one tail, now from the side has appeared five men with stocky bodies. Their faces were filled with disheveled black shackles. All five carried a machete tucked in his waist.


The five people stared at Jaka sharply and immediately turned to the fireplace. From his appearance Jaka guesses they are robbers who are rumored by the residents.


"Hahaha, there was only a boy, I thought there was a merchant passing by" said a person with the largest body with a disappointed face. Maybe he is the leader.


"Hey boy...What are you doing in this forest?" ask the leader to rob it.


"Sitting down and eating the roasted rabbit meat." he replied indifferently, his mouth was still full of food.


"Devil.I asked seriously."


"I'm serious too."


"Devil, kill this boy!" the robber's orders.


The four men immediately attacked Jaka with their bare hands. They thought that Jaka was just a little boy who got lost in this forest of Godong Surgo. One of them intends to slap Jaka in the face, but is soon held up with a meat-piercing handle. The person immediately moaned in pain, his fingers feeling like they were crushed. The other three immediately moved back.


"Stupid!" call their leader.


The leader of the robbery had already realized that there was no way Jaka was an ordinary boy. There is no history of an ordinary boy daring to relax in the middle of the forest these nights. The leader then told his comrades to attack with his machete.


They began to attack Jaka with his machete, one by one the strikes were avoided by jaka. While Jaka was still silent not shifting the seat.


"Uahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.. " Jaka stood up while stretching out his hands, while his mouth began to evaporate widely.


"I don't want to fight, go!"


"Hahaha, we'll leave after cutting off your head."


"Then, go ahead!"


The five of them then attacked Jaka simultaneously, there was no shame in the slightest even though they were attacking a boy. The roar of the machete voice pointed rapidly towards his opponent's body, Jaka clumped backwards.


Jaka then took a small twig to serve as a weapon, "I will fight you with this."


"Groan!"


Just finished the robbing leader was making a sound, his four comrades had already attacked with unsheathed cleaver. Attack after attack Jaka managed to avoid while hitting their heads with tree branches.


They screamed and then attacked again. But this time Jaka moved very quickly without them realizing their machetes had been separated from his hands. Jaka then threw the machete right at the tip of their toes to make them not dare to move.


The robber leader and his four comrades immediately dropped down on their knees, they shouted for mercy.


Jaka claimed to be so kind that night that he let them all go. But the real reason is that Jaka deliberately let them go to show their true nest. After they moved away Jaka followed him carefully.
