The Snake Demon

2. MY SON'S LIFE WAS EXCHANGED FOR ONE TRUCK

Living as a second-class officer with a wife and four children is very hard. Moreover, children have started adolescence is certainly not something easy.

This is what Arun is doing. Moreover, Arun's wife does not work, of course it is very heavy.

This is what makes Arun meet a hermit at the foot of Mount Cireme, Cirebon, West Java.

In front of the hermit Arun reveals his intentions. That he wants to be rich. How-how?

The hermit said, if Arun peng is rich he must fast three days and three nights. And during the patigeni. Arun had to recite the spell that the hermit had taught him.

"My granddaughter.You should take three days starting Tuesday Kliwon and ending on Thursday Pahing..!" Said the hermit to Arun.

"You understand the meaning of the patigeni fast..!?" Ask the hermit to Arun.

"Before Eyang.please Eyang give a hint..!" Arun.

Then the first grandfather named Eyang Cokromonilingan taught what is meant by fasting patigeni.

Geni starch fasting is fasting not eating no drinking for three days. Nor should it be exposed to sunlight or lights.

Patigeni can still sleep but is restricted. If the malem cannot sleep and must read the incantation.

"After I explain are you still interested..!?" Ask the hermit or Eyang Cokromokingan to Arun.

"Yes Mbah.I've been determined.It's better to die than live hard..!" Tekad Arun's.

"Then you just choose to fast in the cave there.or dug there..!" Said the hermit, while pointing to the cave on the hill wall and a simple hut that was deliberately built for asceticism and meditation.

Due to consideration to avoid the disturbance of wild beasts such as snakes and perhaps tigers.

Understand this the foot of Mount Cirema. Nature is still wild. Still the forest and Eyang Cokromilingan is deliberately isolated here.

For Eyang about the choice of Arun to go anywhere is not a problem. The most important thing is that the origin is really lived fast.

"So you chose to stay in that gubug huh..!? It doesn't matter if you really do.!" Eyang. Arun nodded.

"Well, you can start tomorrow, my granddaughter..!?" Clearly Eyang.

"Everyone..!" Arun has really been determined unanimously. He even asked for leave of absence from his office. Even suppose that because of this practice Arun had to lose his job he declared ready.

The first night of Arun patigeni there is no disturbance. Except for the scary howling of the coyote.

And the sound of the broaches like a forest rat or the sound of a ferret looking for prey.

Arun stays inside the hut. He came out except to pee. Although daylight remains Arun inside the gubug.

Second night. The mood is getting quiet. Different from the first night. On the second night, a white shadow drifted from tree to tree.

Of course Arun didn't see it. Because he's in the gubug.

It was only on the third night that Arun was visited by a hairy black creature. Human-like creatures do not talk much. Only with sign language did this creature tell Arun to leave.

Just in the morning Arun came to Eyang to tell his findings.

"That's what I got Eyang..during the three-day patigeni on the hut..!" Papar Arun to Eyang Cokromilingan.

"Ohw so yes...!? That means your satisfaction has been accepted. And you can go home now..!" Eyang.

Hearing the explanation of Eyang Arun immediately rushed over. All his equipment was packed and he went home. Before Arun goes, Eyang speaks to Arun.

"Maybe in the next few days there will be guests to your house. The guest brought what you wanted...!" Eyang.

Arun immediately left the foot of Cireme mountain and returned to Pekalongan to his native area.

A few days later after Arun's return from the foot of Mount Cireme. His first son Reno suddenly fell ill, he was hot and often nervous.

Reno has been checked into the Puskesmas given a hot drop. But the heat and the pain did not go away.

Simultaneously Arun arrivals brought a truck. And the guest met Arun immediately.

"Sorry Mas...Is it true until Mas Arun..!?" Ask the guest.

Without further ado Arun asserted. "What is there sir? " Task Arun to the guest.

"I was ordered by the Boss to deliver money to Mas Arun. The money's in the truck. I brought it here, did you..!?" Arun.

Soon the guest with the help of the driver and kenek lowered the money was brought into Arun's room.

Previously Arun had provided a special room for money.

The money from the Boss I don't know who turned out to be a full room.

Meanwhile along with the arrival of money that amounted to how many billion. Reno's disease is getting worse.

He even went into a coma. Arun immediately fled to Ustadz Hamzah an ustadz who was known to have the science of ma'rifat.

"Mas help me...!" Arun said when he arrived at Hamzah's house.

"Patience..emang why!?" Ask Hamzah.

"My son is very sick please treat Mas...!" Arun Pinta.

"What pain? Have you checked into the Puskesmas..!?" Ask Hamzah again.

"Already Mas. I went to the doctor too. But it's getting worse..!" Arun Obviously.

"I went inside first.Who's name? What day was born? Hurry and see..!" Hamzah waited for Arun's answer.

Then go into the room. Arun explains the name of his son Reno. Born Thursday Pahing.

"After I've married something is wrong with you Arun...you took the pesugihan yes..!?" Tanya Ustadz Hamzah sharp as razor sharp. Arun could not dwell on Hamzah's question.

Finally he admitted frankly that it is true that he was looking for a visit to the foot of Mount Cireme Cirebon. Even he has received a lot of money.

"Well that's. You are indeed a jerk. That's a bet on your son Run's life.Thank you came quick. Give that money back. And don't use a dime or your son's life is gone..!" Hamzah said firmly and loudly.

Arun was confused. Because he doesn't know where to return the money. The name and address of the boss who sent the money he did not know.

Hamzah understands Arun's confusion. "Have you now also do not delay to come to the person you once asked for help at the foot of Mount Cireme.

If there you find livestock either a buffalo goat or a cow. You just take the cattle. Then say tuh please take the money.I need more chicken or goat..!" Hamzah.

Once got an explanation from Ustadz Hamzah, a very respected ustadz in Pekalongan. Arun immediately changed clothes to Cirebon.

The target was the Eyang Cokromolilingan hermitage at the foot of Ceremai Mountain.

Because departing from Pekalongan already at 16.00 WIB to the place of Eyang Cokromoningan already night.

Arrive at the destination Arun directly to the kitchen. In the kitchen he saw two goats tied to a rope.

One of the goats suddenly spoke.

"Sir I'm not here at home. I'm going home,.!" The goat said.

Of course it made Arun shocked to death. Even more shocked it turns out that the sound of the goat resembles the voice of Reno her son who was sick at home.

When Arun was still amazed. Suddenly his shoulder was patted from behind. Arun was shocked and reflexively looked back.

"You're shocked....!? And you are stunned to see this kind of sight huh...!?" Said Cokrom Summoning Eyang who suddenly stood behind him.

"Frankly I'm in shock. I don't imagine rich gini Eyang..!" Said Arun while wiping his melted tears.

"From the beginning I told.what are the consequences and consequences of the abuse. I've reminded you but you're still desperate. What do you want then..!?" Said Eyang Cokro Kalem.

After wiping his tears Arun replied.

"Now I don't need money. No need for treasure. Just take this goat, I'll take it home..!" Said Arun steady.

"Continue what room money in your house will you do..!?" Answer Eyang.

"Please take it and I don't need it. I just need this goat for me to take home..!" Arun Assert. Not angry enough. He even smiled.

"Eat him so that guy don't grusa-grusu. Enjoy what God has given you. Don't like to take what's not your right. Take the goat and go home..!" Said Eyang while leaving Arun who was releasing the rope that tied the goat in a wooden block.

"Thank you Eyang..!" After thanking Arun by leading the goat to leave the creepy place.

Arriving on public streets. In crowded places. Suddenly the goat he was leading vanished. Missing. But Arun though surprised did not look for her. For both Ustadz Hamzah and Eyang Cokro have told. That the goat will disappear when there is someone else.

Arun doesn't care. Now that occurred to her heart she had to hurry home.

And even though from the Cirebon bus terminal it is 02.00 WIB in the morning. Arun continued to return to Pekalongan.

Arriving at home he went straight to Reno's room. It turns out that the boy is healed. Healthy as waking from sleep.

After that Arun ran to the money storage room. It turns out that the money vanished without a trace.

"The money disappears no matter if the child survives..!" Said Arun while clenching fists.
