Continued Chapter 10

“You also continue to dodge my attacks. Why don't you fight me, young man? In fact, you could have easily finished me,” said bangkuiyang still curious because Halaban did not fight his attack.“No, bangkui, I will not hurt let alone kill my fellow creatures created by God and I always remember my father's message when going to this climb.”“My father advised me to always be patient in facing all obstacles and danger in climbing to take lucky water. He also advised me never to fight let alone destroy His creation. It is my duty, dear bangkui, to obey the message of parents!”“Indeed, you are not only brave and patient, but also a child who is obedient to parents.”“Well, now you can continue your journey and you don't have to worry about my injuries because for a moment this wound will heal!” bangkui. “Thank you for your kindness! Again I am sorry for your injured arm,” said Halaban.“Before you continue your journey to take lucky water, there is one request me, O young man,” said bangkui.“What is it, my friend?” ask Halaban to bangkui. “I want you to find some golden snails that are around this hillside. This conch as a wound medicine on my arm.”“Are you ready, young man?” ask bangkui. “Alright, I must have found it for you because I hurt your arm,” said Halaban.“Don't worry young man, it's only natural that my arm is injured. It's my own fault and I deserve it.”“You do not need to worry after being treated with a golden snail, this wound will gradually heal!” apparently, the golden snail was very difficult to find.After to and fro walking in search of the golden snail, Halaban finally arrived at the edge of a lake under the second waterfall shower. He also collected some golden snails and immediately found a bangkui in the original place to give up the golden snail.After handing the golden snail, Halaban continued his climb to the highest hilltop to take the lucky water. While climbing, heard by Halaban the sound of a stool that advised him to be careful in the climb.Bangkui also advised that Halaban not once look back and look down the hill. This is because it has become a taboo that must be obeyed.With all the energy, Halaban tried to climb the top of the hill by using a rope from the wood billan that he carried. At the time of the ascent, suddenly heard from a pile of large stones a voice asking the purpose and purpose of the young man to the place.Halaban was surprised to hear the voice, but the person was invisible. Indeed, the young man was famous for his courage. Moreover, his father is a leader of the Biaju Dayak tribe who is very powerful.Votes like the grandfathers were warned that Halaban should not be careless climbing the top of the hill, without the permission of the waiter.“Young man, exactly who are you and what does it mean to come to our place without asking permission first?”“Sorry grandfather for my willingness to enter the top of these hills,” said Halaban.“O young man, know by you not just anyone can climb the top of these hills, without bringing certain conditions!” said that creepy voice.“Again, sorry, Mother. I was sent by my father to retrieve the first spring that radiates from the sidelines of the rocks above the top of these hills,” Halaban replied politely and respectfully.“My granddaughter you may take the water, but you have to meet some of the requirements you have to submit.”“What are those conditions, Kek, so I can take that water?” ask Halaban excitedly. “All you bring are his conditions, young man! Now follow my orders, you must place seven colorful flowers on this huge rock! Meanwhile, black chicken you let go in this lush forest.”“Then, what about the three seeds of this plant, Cake?” ask Halaban.“Please plant it just close the lake at the top of these hills to thrive with other plants!” said the grandfather. “Oh yes, what is your name, brave young man?” ask the grandpa.“My name is Halaban, Cake!” answer the young man respectfully.“Alright, Halaban because you planted this tree seedling, name it after yourself! So, this tree is named halaban tree!”“Halaban, after kautanam tree seedlings, you look down because of the crevices of large stones will come out of the water that you have been looking for!”Halaban also obeyed the old grandfather's order by putting seven colorful flowers on a large stone. Then, he released the black chicken he carried in the lush forest.Halaban also did not forget to plant three tree seeds that he brought. In accordance with the grandfather's order, the planted tree was named halaban tree.After telling the intention and purpose of coming to the top of the hills to the grandfather, Halaban was allowed to take the water as he pleased.“Young people, know that the water is very clear and cool. The water is called lucky water that can cure various diseases.” Then, the voice of the supernatural grandfather told Halaban to bring home the lucky water. The young man took enough water by using the container he brought from the house.
