Chapter 29 The strange village



A small village in a valley around which is still forest and green rice fields spread like steps adorn the view of Bayu that afternoon. Who can be seen sitting casually on a rock on the hill west of the beautiful and still natural village. After a day of walking after helping a pair of Tigers he met this morning in the forest.


While resting there and enjoying the natural scenery of the hills when the sun wants to sink, Bayu's mouth did not stop chewing the guava fruit that he got on the way, he said, I don't know how many seeds have run aground in his mouth and it seems his stomach may be very hungry because it has not been filled anything from this morning, just filled with water that met on the way.


Finally, after being satisfied to enjoy the beauty of nature there for almost an hour and guava fruit that was quite a lot had disappeared into his stomach, felt his stomach was able to compromise then Bayu continued the journey to stop and plan to ride overnight in the village, he hopes there can get a good meal because it has been three days his stomach is filled with a menu that alakadarnya course, and even then cooked in a simple way without any spices.


He also began to cross the rice fields that lay there, the air is so cool and breezy afternoon breeze adds to the peaceful beautiful atmosphere there and Bayu was seen to enjoy it very much, he also walked casually down the plots for the sake of plots of rice fields that are like steps from the painting of nature. He also fantasized while walking imagining in his old days later living in a peaceful and quiet area like this has a wife and children who play ria and spoiled decorate his old age, he said, far from the cruel hustle and bustle of life as it has been through during the descent of this mountain.


How wonderful is this life if peace exists where, there is no war there is no slaughter and there are no bad people on this earth, then happiness will be everywhere and everyone can enjoy it, the crops of farmers will be abundant, he said, the merchants will be smoother and crowded into the corners of the village because there are no distractions on the way and automatically the country will be famous where because of the prosperity of his life. All those thoughts were flashed all in the delusion of Bayu as he walked closer and closer towards the village that looks already quiet it welcomes the coming of night.


By venturing out, Bayu also tried to knock on the door and greet the owner of several houses to ask questions and if allowed he would ride a sleep for a night there. Do not open the door answer from the owner of the house that is inside was not heard by him, but Bayu knows there are people inside, he could feel the existence and number of people who were there through his sharp hearing, he also heard the fear of every occupant of the house he knocked it.


Because there were no residents there who wanted to open the door of his house, Bayu finally continued his steps down the quiet streets in the village and the day was getting dark, Bayu was increasingly curious about the situation in the village that was not friendly with the immigrants. But he was quite self-conscious and did not force to stay overnight, maybe the resident had a certain reason to do so he thought.


Even across the biggest house in the village, maybe this is the house of the village head but the situation is the same as the other house there is tightly closed and quiet. finally he died of the strange village and began to enter the forest on the outskirts of the village that began to darken. And he planned to rest there tonight, while monitoring the village from a distance.


It turns out that Bayu is still very curious about the village, he gets a bad feeling about the desolate but inhabited village. And he planned to investigate it later, whether it was the habit of the people there who were like that or because there was something else, that made the people there were afraid,all of that still lingers in Bayu's mind that makes him not calm, while waiting for the time he dapun darted into the forest to find food for his stomach later, later, it didn't take long for him to come back with a rabbit fat enough for his meal tonight. He had hoped and could imagine being able to find good food in the village was apparently all off and not in accordance with what he hoped.
