When ki Ranu stated that there would be a wedding, Tirta was very surprised, He still could not think clearly.
Indeed he put everything that happened to pepesten but for the affairs of his match he must think further.
"Eyang Ranu, I apologize profusely, is it not too soon to determine the soul mate of Nastiti!" tirta said interrupting the conversation between ki Ranu and ki Sentanu. In a low voice and half whisper so as not to be heard by others.
"No child mas, here if the soul mate has been set then it must be carried out immediately marriage," said Ki Ranu.
"But in our place of marriage, we must get the blessing and permission of both parents" said Tirta slowly.
"I asked for time to decide this, Eyang," Tirta continued.
"I have to speak to both my parents and my teacher on the slopes of Ungaran" continued Tirta.
Ki Ranu seemed to frown, looking as if he was saddened at the words of Tirta Jayakusuma just now. But he also realized that what this young man was saying was the truth.
Looks ki Ranu is still silent for a while longer.
Then after sighing heavily ki Ranu immediately said quietly;
"It is true what the son of Tirta said! You really hope to soon match Nastiti with a child mas without thinking about the feelings of Nastiti, children mas and parents of children mas," said ki Ranu looked sad and disappointed.
"Alright then I will wait for answers and news from the child mas, I hope the son of Tirta Jayakusuma did not reject Nastiti, said ki Ranu with a sad heart.
Tirta was also sad when she heard the words of Ki Ranu. But she had to think deeply about this matchmaking request from Ki Ranu.
Tirta immediately apologized once more to ki Ranu. Tirta was really sorry to have hurt this old man, but this decision had to be taken, not that he refused but that he had to think about it further.
"Ki Sentanu, you heard the words yourself from anakmas Tirta, what do you think ?" ask ki Ranu to ki Sentanu slowly.
What is said by the child mas Tirta is true ki Ranu, we can not maximize our will on our children," replied ki Sentanu.
Ki Ranu nodded his head listening to his opinion ki Sentanu. Then ki Ranu said;
"Alright if so ki Sentanu, I will think again about Nastiti's wedding," said ki Ranu.
"And tomorrow I hope ki Sentanu helps prepare ubo rampe for the election of the new Constable, the replacement of ki Amongraga."
Thus the event was soon ended, but because there are still many dishes, young people are still lek-lekan in the pendopo.
Tirta, Bayu and Adnan also joined the young people of Srengseng.
***
That afternoon after the residents were over from the rice fields, pategalan as well as the garden, they immediately headed to the courtyard of the house ki Ranu to watch the selection of the Constable which will be held that afternoon.
It turned out that in the courtyard ki Ranu had already established a stage of bamboo that was quite large.
Almost all residents were forced to leave their homes to watch the election of the new Constable.
This time the Jagabaya choice is eight people, four people are the chairman of a small group of security guards, two more are resident in their forties and are ordinary citizens who work in the fields and two young people who are also members of the security guard who also have the ability quite good among his friends.
Moments later Ki Amongraga climbed onto the bamboo platform, and began to speak..
"The one who became the winner and defeated his opponents who will next become the Constable, after getting approval from ki Ranu," ki Amongraga said loudly.
"So the requirement to become a Constable is to come out as a winner and get Restu from ki Ranu."
Thus ki Amongraga conveyed to the residents padukuhan will be the condition of being a Constable.
Furthermore, the rules of the match were also submitted by ki Amongraga.
"The rules of this match are, participants will be declared defeated if they give up losing, get out or get off the stage of this match and cheat !"
Such are the rules of the match set by ki Amongraga.
"For the first fight please go on stage, Wulungan and Jaladri !" ki Amongraga called out the names of the two young men.
Wulungan immediately jumped onto the stage, followed by another young man named Jaladri, a young man who was also a member of the bodyguard of the Srengseng clergy.
The two of them immediately faced each other on stage..
They appear to be cupping each other's palms in the chest and bowing to each other's sign of mutual respect.
"Please start the fight !" Excite ki Amongraga from below the stage, where there stand also the elders and gegedug of this Srengseng Padukuh.
After respecting each other, it appears Jaladri then jumped crashing towards Wulungan who immediately stepped foot with a punch anyway.
The fight immediately happened with the thrill, they sold each other punches and kicks.
A few moments later Wulungan high-bodied large without difficulty which means it has managed to make Jaladri fall awake avoiding the attacks Wulungan storming relentless !
And in a powerful attack, the Wulungan kick that uses most of its power with overlaid aji Bayu Bajra seems unable to be held by Jaladri!
Although the kick succeeded in the field but Jaladri's body still ejected out of the fighting stage. Jaladri fell down and out of the arena stage.
Wulungan immediately bowed respectfully and immediately got off the stage.
"This time the fight was won by the Wulungan!" ki Amongraga.
"Next please Sadewa and Sudiro go to the stage !" ki Amongraga called out to two more youths,.
Sudiro is a young man who is also the leader of a small group of solidified guards like Wulungan. While Sadewa is a farmer who works in the fields every day, his age is approaching forty years but still has no life partner, his body was stout and muscular because he worked hard every day in the fields.
The two then saluted each other,
"Please start," cried ki Amongraga.
The two of them immediately started the fight, Sudiro had started with a powerful kick with Bayu Bajra.
Yes, Bayu Bajra is a study that almost all residents of this Srengseng Padukuhan master, depending on the level. Some master the basics only, some are quite great like Wulungan.
It turns out that Sadewa also mastered Bayu Bajra with enough qualified, so the fight this time went more exciting than the first fight earlier.
The attacks from both of them that accompany aji Bayu Bajra really make the fight really exciting ! The wind of punches and kicks roared and whirled, making the bamboo stage follow by shaking.
