CH 21 - STATE COASTAL NOISE PART IV (BURST )



It has been a few months Sariwati occupied the white Surau and every day Muhibbin sent everything he needed both food and clothing because all this time Sariwati only used a shabby robe that was not worth mentioning dress.


That afternoon the air felt humid, it felt like it was going to rain. It was seen that Sariwati was watering the flowers embedded beside Surau. Yellowish color looks beautiful, in between embedded roses also reddish pink, small petals but look beautiful in the wrap of sharp thorns on the stem.


The plant was the result of Sariwati's labor during the settlement of Surau. To fill his time, he planted those plants. With a touch of white Surau looks more beautiful, the yard that was originally just empty land turned overgrown with grass that is embedded neatly. On the sidelines of the Japanese tree and sandat made hangers attached to various catalia and lunar orchids and various medicinal plants planted in Surau.


From a distance Surau An Nur looks charming, white color on the wooden wall looks charming combined with yellow gradations of flowers and the fifth level Meru roof made of black corn adds to the impression of authority.


"Wati, are you sure you don't want to come later tonight to watch Joget Bumbung at Banjar Hall?" muhibbin asked Wati.


"No sir, let me stay. I don't want people to be surprised and afraid of my appearance" replied Wati.


Muhibbin understood what Sariwati meant, the girl in front of him was embarrassed and insecure with half of his face and all of his skin was covered in fish-like scales that looked wrinkled as well as his long silvery waist hair.


"Don't call me sir, I've said many times" said Muhibbin


"Call me Ibbin only," he concluded.


If examined in fact the age of Sariwati is not much different from Muhibbin but because of her unique appearance the woman looks older than Muhibbin. He never told about his personal life more deeply, only his home country and name were known to Muhibbin and his expertise in the field of Alchemy.


Muhibbin never forced Wati to tell him about her past life before stranding the Beach Country, which he knew that Sariwati was a hard worker and diligent.

That night the atmosphere in front of Banjar Manguntur Village Batubulan Hall was very crowded. Teruna teruni Banjar Manguntur is holding a fundraising night event and a cheap bazaar. Enthusiastic residents flocked to watch the dance performance of Joget Bumbung accompanied by Rindik and flute.


"you look good Dis...?" muhibbin said to the pink-colored ayu girl next to him who was none other than Disya.


"Yes, girl, if anyone says I'm ugly I plug her eyes" Disya replied with a crisp laugh.


"Well, you can" replied Muhibbin laughing.


Since still in Sector seven coffee plantations on the slopes of Ijen both do look close and familiar, especially when reunited accidentally in the Beach Country the two are getting closer.


DUUAARR...


A deafening sound was heard from the direction of the hill on the edge of Purnama beach. A bluish green light visible in the distance is clearly visible from Banjar Manguntur Hall.


Everyone looked panicked and stared at the hill, including Muhibbin and Disya.


Mata Muhibbin was full of anxiety because the hill was where Suraunya stood and Sariwati was there.


Suddenly from behind Muhibbin clothes looks golden yellow light but only a few moments.


"Bin, why is there a light behind your shirt just now, what are you keeping?" tanya Disya was surprised to see a golden light that was seen for a while but was very clear.


Muhibbin felt something behind his shirt, holding a brownish-yellow ring tied with a black thread around his neck. In his mind he wondered why his mother's gift ring glowed even for a moment.


"Oh, this is my mother's ring Dis," Muhibbin replied in confusion.


From a distance, a person paddled his wind train to the crowd at Banjar Manguntur Hall, where he threw the train.


His breathing panted with a panicked facial expression.


"SILENT... LEAK...there's Leak!" said someone who just came was still frightened. His body trembled, sitting limply surrounded by people who watched him questioningly.


"Hit Kulkul Bulus.puk Kulkul Bulus," Shouted one of the crowd.


TUUNGGS... TUUNGGS.. LEVEE.... TUUNNG...... POCK.


The sound of tongs was hit, before how long the entire community began to gather at Banjar Manguntur Hall. Some carried machetes, machetes, scythes and various sharp weapons indicating a serious situation was occurring.


Suddenly a man burst into the crowd following several other men, the man was none other than Nengah Wirata Sekar and Muhibbin's father.


"What is this," asked Mr. Nengah to the crowd.


"There is Leak Jero Mekel, there is Leak," said the people alternately.


"Please one by one speak, not all!" added Mr. Nengah Firmly.


"You, tell me what happened?" ask Mr. Nengah to the man who sits in the middle of the crowd.


"Le... Le...Leak Jero Mekel," said the man stammering.


"No way, where's Leak?" replied Mr. Nengah in a slightly loud voice.


"Be. be. right Jero," said the man stammering.


"Where is Leak," pak Nengah asked the young man in front of him.


With a sigh the man told me.


"In Surau Jero.," said the man.


"I was after Sandikala went fishing on the beach Purnama not far from Surau, suddenly from the direction of Surau I saw a bluish green light," added the man.


"Cause of curiosity, I went up to the hill where the light came and turned out from Surau, it looks like the woman who used to wear white cloth is sitting in front of a bundle of cloth right in front of the door of Surau," continued the man.


"After that I ran down the hill and rushed here with a wind train," concluded the man still with a heavy voice trembling with fear.


Everyone in the place shuddered at the man in front of him, none of the crowd dared to comment.


Inwardly, Mr. Nengah muttered,


"Who still practices black magic?"


Still remembered the incident fifteen years ago in his village, where at that time there was an old woman who had the science of terror in his village.


At that time it was still led by the old rickety who was none other than Mr. Nengah's own father. From that incident, Mr. Nengah's father died after fighting with the woman who practices the science and the old woman was killed by the keris Jero Mekel Lingsir father of the previous nengah Jero Mekel Lingsir was also exposed the poisoned skewer of the old woman's condition and the woman's body was burned and her ashes thrown in the crater of Mount Tohlangkir.


"You're sure the people in Surau know the science?" search mr. Nengah.


"Experts sure Jero," the man replied briefly.


nape of Mr. Nengah bristling, nape,


"Call my son Ibbin here" shouted Mr. Nengah.


Not long after Muhibbin accompanied by Disya and Sekar approached Pak Nengah.


"Gus, have you heard this man's words?" ask Mr. Nengah to Muhibbin


"Sign Jik," Muhibbin replied briefly.


"Don't let your friend have knowledge," said Mr. Nengah to Muhibbin.


Muhibbin was silent with thoughts raging in his head. The residents who gathered swarmed Banjar Manguntur Hall began to prickle with a view attached to Muhibbin as if as a patient.


"Silent brothers!" mr. Nengah's voice tried to calm the atmosphere.


"Burn the people in Surau it's Jero" shouted one of the crowd.


"Just burn it,"


"We just cut out his body,"


Shouts for the sake of the cries of Banjar Manguntur residents began to ignite emotions.


"Quiet, calm down, brothers," we make sure to go there first," replied Mr. Nengah back


"Jero just drag,"


"Yes, just drag it and we take out that damned woman,"


The atmosphere was getting uncontrollable, the screams of the citizens who were ignited began to ring out.


The residents led by Mr. Nengah and Pecalang village rushed to Surau followed by hundreds of residents behind him.
