After enjoying gamelan music, Puspa asked all the men to go home. On the way, they did not go straight home but went to the guard post. Only Mr. Jarwo was reluctant to sit with his workers. They play cards until late at night accompanied by coffee from the shop next door.
While being engrossed in playing, Sukarni suddenly hives in the upper thigh area. The man started scratching making all eyes look at him in wonder.
“Why, Kang?” ask Jaka.
“Do not know! Itching my thighs.”
“Don't get caterpillars, Kang,”.
The more difficult scratching his thigh to the top makes the men feel strange.
“Kang Karni go home first, try changing pants at home,” Saran Mudin.
Karni began to get upset then suddenly opened his pants there without a second thought. Only************ are left. He saw the long ring and found no caterpillars. But the itching was increasingly making Karni could not stand then took a bamboo club at the guard post and then scratched his thigh using a club.
The night was not too late until many residents were still passing on the road. They immediately stopped when they saw the other citizens were paying attention to something serious. Curiosity arises from residents passing through to the atmosphere around the guard post getting more peaceful. Sukarni is not aware if he is the center of attention of people. He only knew that right now his thighs and groin were extremely itchy. Even some of them were already bleeding because he was scratching with the sharp end of a bamboo club.
“Kang, to the village midwife just let in the love of medicine,” shouted a mother-mother.
It is difficult not to care so that the eyes of the residents are opened because the man opened****************** in public. All eyes can see Sukarni's lackluster vital organs. The eyes of the residents were again made wide-eyed when they saw Sukarni shuffling his vitals in public and then a few moments later came out the leeches black leeches pitch black. The residents moved away, they retreated because they felt strange with the condition of Sukarni.
“It looks like Kang Sukarni got hit hard,” celtuk a mother-mother made all eyes look at him including Sukarni.
“So I have to what, Ma'am?” ask Sukarni to cry.
“Please ask the same Ki Lawu. He's a medical expert and a santet.”
“Ki Lawu who lives in the cave?” ask some of the people.
Ki Lawu is famous for treating people affected by witchcraft and exhaustion. Since his wife died, Ki Lawu chose to live in the forest alone. Since then he never returned to the village and seemed to have died. Only a few people who have visited his place for treatment should ask first because Ki Lawu does not treat everyone.
“How do I get there, Ma'am?” ask Sukarni while grimacing grievously.
“Just enter the bamboo forest later the straight path will meet the river. After crossing the river, the road again goes into the bamboo forest and not far in front of it has been seen cave.” The mothers described in detail as if she had been there often even her husband to wonder. After saying that, the mother gasped like a confused person.
“You've been to Ki Lawu cave, Buk?” whispered husband.
The mother frowned, “Ki Lawu what, sir?” it was her husband's turn to be confused.
It was difficult to go according to the instructions of the mothers. Passing road users are surprised by the appearance of Volunteers who do not use ****** *****. He walked while scratching his itchy thigh with a bat.
Iyem was about to go to sleep and suddenly heard the knocking of the door. “Yem, Yem, wake up!”
“Yem, Karni, Yem! Your husband's been swatted by people. Now he was going to the bamboo forest to find Ki Lawu to treat him. He does not use *********, Yem. His thighs until bloody when scratched with a baton beaters kept his bird out small leeches.”
Iyem was anxious but could not do much because the baby was still small and had fallen asleep. “Ya already then, I enter first. Let Kang Karni find the cure first. I can't leave the grandpa who is still a baby.” The citizens understood then left Iyem's house.
On the way, they wondered about the pain that Sukarni had obtained. “I'm sure it's a teluh from the odd woman,” exclaimed a wife from Jaka.
“Do not origin accuse. If Karni gets knocked down, it means your husband has to, too. Karni Sama Jaka also equally in the house,” Jaka's wife fell silent. The woman begins to worry that her husband will be hit by the same pain as Karni.
Arriving at home, the woman sees Jaka asleep after exhaustion from the guard post. Friendship between them is just as weathered wood eaten by termites. Look, how soundly Jaka slept and the other men while Sukarni walked alone into the bamboo forest while enduring the itching on his body.
In the bamboo forest, Sukarni continued to walk as directed. Under the moonlight and a flashlight, he continued walking down the bamboo forest all the way to the river. As if tirelessly, the man returned down the river then walked back into the forest. It is difficult to breathe a sigh of relief because in front of him there is a cave and a little light in it. Then, he rushed into the cave and there was a beautiful woman combing her hair.
Hard to be surprised, he began to wonder in his heart about the woman who was behind him.
“Excuse me!” sukarni said, and the woman looked over.
Sukarni's eyes widened. The itching in his thighs instantly disappeared. His feet retreated backwards. A shadow of the past in which he had thrashed Larasati appeared in his mind. Not until there, he also threw the body of a spinster into the river.
“Why, Kang? How to retreat?”
“Laras,-“ the woman smiled as her name was called a little stuttering by Sukarni.
“Ah, do you remember my name? Is that why, Kang? Until the wound and the bloody? Itching huh?”
“I'm sorry, Baras! I can't refuse Juragan Jarwo.”'s orders
Larasati laughed but her eyes were sharply drawn forward. “Funny for the reason, Kang. Why don't you be honest that Kakang likes to see my innocent body. Would you like to repeat again? But seeing Kakang kayak's beloved bird so, I so doubt if the bird can be used at this time.”
“No, Barrel. I'm khilaf. I'm sorry!”
“I'm sorry, Kang. Then why did Kakang retreat so? Like seeing a ghost.”
“T-no, Barrel. I'm here to see Ki Lawu. I've been swatted by people like this. I want to ask Ki Lawu.” for medicine
“Oh, Kakang want to meet Ki Lawu? Why didn't you say that from earlier. Ki Lawu is behind Kakang!” Karni looked then,-
Aaa…..
