thirty (ending)

Ilyaz smiled with Atang and Ijah meeting.

“Alhamdulillah, Allah showed the truth. During this time the citizens were lied to by the slander of the death of ust. Aslam brought a curse. But, it turns out that it was all the game of Mr. Ismat and Mr. Lurah who had allied with Ki Ageng Mayitan.”

“What Mr Doctor? Pak Lurah and Pak Ismat perpetrators of the evacuation in this village?” sentak Ijah's.

“Iya, Mother. Witness atang. Mr. Lurah deliberately made gambling kupluk as a way of collision. Mr. Lurah will take the fall from the person who won the gamble, Mak.”

“Astagfirullahaladzim. Worth it, when ust. Aslam founded this mushola, sir Ismat and Lurah Hamid were so against it.”

“That's one of the devil's traps in misleading man's faith in God. Naudzubillah, may we continue to be strengthened in the way of faith, amen,” said Kyai Tapa.

Night is morning.

Residents were shocked by the discovery of Ismat's corpse with a charred state hit by lightning. His condition was truly terrible, eyes bulging and mouth gaping spilling intense pain as the life was taken out of the body. His body was found in Hamid's house, in a special room, where they called Ki Ageng Mayitan.

Hamid was terrified to see the blackened corpse of his partner. However, he also looks very angry with Ismat's death.

There was only Arum.

Before Hamid found Ismat's death, in the room there was a noise and a loud explosion. Arum had seen the incident that made him also horrified while peeking. In the room, Ismat sat cross-legged with his eyes closed then immediately from his body came out white smoke and burning air. He had whimpered the heat and exploded and was thrown, and finally the body blackened with severe burns.

Arum immediately ran away from the room in order to save himself. He found Kyai Tapa at the musala.

“Neng Arum?” Ijah astonishment.

“Assalamualaikum, Mr. Doctor,” said, “please Mr. Doctor, in that house... Ismat,” facial water Arum scared.

“What's the same Mr Ismat?” Ijah interrupted.

“Mati sad, her whole body is black on fire.”

“Innalillahi wa innailaihi rajiun,” jolt all almost simultaneously.

Ilyaz and the others went to Arum's place to take care of the lifeless Ismat. People were terrified by the unnatural condition of the corpse. The crowd arrived earlier than the doctor.

“This must all be because of the curse of the musala. Can not be left, the victims have fallen and all this because of the actions of Doctor Ilyaz and Kyai it!” accuse Hamid when they just arrived.

Residents emotionally stared intently at the people who had just set foot in the house.

“Lying, it's all slander!” arum said with his floor.

Residents gasped in shock at Arum's anger. The woman who was considered insane, firmly and loudly voiced in front of the crowd. With a dragged step, Arum sets up a body to defend Ilyaz and his guests.

“What are you talking about?” hamid was obviously surprised by Arum's behaviour. “Don't listen to this crazy lady, do you believe in crazy people?”

Highlight Arum's eyes staring intently, defiantly, “I'm not crazy, Hamid! All this time I pretended to be crazy in order to expose all your evil and fellowship with that demon!”

Hamid was speechless, amazed by the sound of Arum rising.

“True, Neng Arum is not crazy. Mak, dare to swear,” said Ijah.

The citizens turned around, they threw angry gazes at Hamid. The villagers were stoked with emotion and were eager to judge the law.

“Do not accuse carelessly!” hamid defended himself.

“I accuse carelessly?” his reply. “Who raped me at the musala? You, Hamid. Aslam...,” he sobbed, “just be a victim of slander so you can seize his power and also control my father's wealth!” The woman turned her eyes to the crowd of citizens, “you just check the room! There is a place to perform the ritual of the tumbal and fellowship with the demon.” Residents glanced towards the designated room, they were about to confirm the truth of Arum's accusation.

Hamid is pale. Whether there was any encouragement, he took a step to escape the crowd, as soon as possible. Citizens are aware of the act of law, they want to pursue and judge it as has been done in ust. Aslamic.

Just suddenly.

The door of the room that was always used for rituals, opened itself and made the people around him hysterically frightened. A white mist emerged from within quickly catching Hamid who was running away in fear.

“Please!” hamid screams as the white mist catches him and drags the body into the room.

White cloth wrapped Hamid's body which was like a corpse. The ambushing mist, transformed into four pocong figures surrounding him. The four pocongs then threw a rope around his neck, tightly clenched it and made his throat feel extremely tight. The people who watched could only be dumbstruck and shocked half to death without being able to do anything. He continued to thrash in pain with a rope that tied tight. Moments later, his body stiffened exactly the bodies of victims of the prankings that became the victim, eyes bulging with a tongue that glistened with a black mark coiled around the neck.

People were hysterically frightened and moved away from the room. However, Ilyaz and Kyai Tapa ventured to check things out.

“How about Mr Kyai?” ask Ilyaz.

“Innalillahi wa innailahi rajiun,” that word alone that ejected from Kyai Tapa.

“Innalillahi wa innailahi rajiun,” said Ilyaz followed by others.

“Actually what happened?” arum asked when he confirmed Hamid's death.

“This is God's destiny. Pak Lurah has expired his agreement with Ki Ageng Mayitan and became a slave to his own agreement.”

“Just be free at last, Mr. Kyai. Allied with demons and misguided, but in the end he himself became the victim,” said Atang.

“This world is a test and the devil will always lead people astray on a path that God does not desire. For this reason, God sent His apostle and lowered this religion as a way of salvation for the heresy of the devil, easily we are always in the way of God, amen,” said Kyai Tapa full of messages of policy.
