The Rewarded Revenge

Sesajen

Arriving at the scene, Mbah Sastro and others can see clearly the body of Juki is sad. With the eyeballs glaring upwards, a bluish neck and a gaping mouth can be seen if he experiences pain before death.

Various expressions were seen from each face, some felt concerned, sad, horrified, and various other expressions. Not long ago came and joined in the middle of them, then Pak Lurah told some residents to carry Juki's body on a stretcher.

All the residents who were at the scene immediately disbanded, because Juki's body will be brought to his house. While two people who used to be close to him also saw the condition of Juki's body, they seemed surprised by what happened to Juki.

"Any thing, why did Juki kill herself?" ask Yayan

While Mamat the person being asked only put both shoulders.

"Ora maybe if Juki is depressed, does she have a problem?" ask Yayan again

"Or someone deliberately killed him continues to be hung in the garden to eliminate evidence." said Mamat while turning towards yayan with a serious face

"But who? After all, Juki had no enemies" asked Yayan thinking

"That's it, but the boss went where yo." muttered Mamat

"Kok takon me?" sahut Yayan as he mendelik

(Cok ask me?)

While Mamat can only grimace, while scratching the nape that does not itch.

"But strange too yo, the figure of Ginanjar boss never seen" said Yayan who this time made Mamat rotate lazy eyeballs

"Wes, while we also just returned yesterday." said Mamat

As they passed through the Mbah Sastro group, the two men grimaced in horror. The reason, Mbah Sastro looked at them with sticky and very deep. It was as if the gaze was implied by something, while the others stared at them fiercely especially Kemal. In fact, Kemal's eyeballs almost came out of his nest.

"Excuse me Mbah." said Yayan as he walked quickly for some reason when near Mbah Sastro they felt an unusual air

While the two of them do not know and do not even know for sure who Mbah Sastro, because the age of Yayan and Mamat is not much different from Kemal. They were the same as the village youth, only Yayan and Mamat were three years older than Kemal.

"I smell the scent of death." said Kemal when Yayan and Mamat were already away

"Oalah lambemu iki Mal." said the Kurdish mang while patting Kemal's shoulder

Until the night came to greet the village Ketang, the cold air as cold as ice to puncture the bone was so felt. The sounds of crickets and owls sounding softly sahutan decorate the silence of the village, coupled with the howls of wild animals in the forest make the air increasingly gripping.

As usual, the time still shows at 19:00 but the village is like a dead village. At seven o'clock the residents had been racing the race curled up under a thick blanket, no one dared to come out even just to go to the kitchen.

"Why don't we just leave now" said Mamat as he closed his strong nose when the smell of rotten rancid rancid filled the room that tidak

"Will anyone see the pie?" ask Yayan

"Those smell is so bad, the smell of carcasses and my blood is not strong. Anyway, see for yourself the village is deserted no one."

"But performing such a ritual does have to be special dijam, and usually people who perform such rituals are indeed midnight."

"But it stinks so."

"Hold it a minute."

They both chose not to sleep, afraid if they could not get up and in vain they had beheaded the buffalo. The cold weather was still able to puncture Mamat's skin which had been coated with sarong cloth to make him shiver, as well as Yayan. This cold weather made them sleepy, but as much as possible they had to endure.

Up to a few hours have been passed with a tangled face due to being very sleepy, now the time has shown at 22:00 they were immediately ready.

"It's ten Yan." said Mamat in a raspy voice typical of people who are very sleepy

"We have to leave now because the forbidden forest is quite far away." said Yayan who immediately made Mamat stupefied

Inevitably Mamat also rose from his seat and came out of the house carrying a tray, not a small tray for tea treats. But a large tray made of bamboo woven in such a way as to be round, as well as Yayan.

The tray held by Mamat contains offerings, such as seven-figure flowers, chicken blood cemani, incense, frankincense, lime, not to forget the dead chicken cemani. Unlike other offerings that contain market snacks, as well as crops. Because, Yayan and Mamat will perform rituals such as almsgiving to gain wealth.

While the tray held by Yayan contains two buffalo heads that have been covered with banana leaves.
