Samurai Mats - 16
The second day since the bloody incident, the Bungsu is still
sit over there. In the courtyard of his house. Among the ruins
the houses in his village. He sat with his mother's head on his thigh. Till
the third day he was unable to move from there. The wounds on his back are very
aches. Fortunately, the cold and rain helped his wounds. There are no flies
which shroud.
It was only on the third day that he tried to rise with a body like he would
torn two. He had to bury the bodies of his father, mother and brother. He should too
buried the bodies of seven men, a woman and another child
that village. Because there's no one there. They've run away
evacuate.
Heavy rain that fell a few days ago that caused the soil to be soft and
easily dug. Clenching his teeth, he pulled out the Samurai stuck in
straight on his father's left chest. Then he started digging the ground near the body
his father was with the samurai. The bodies of his father and mother are only a short distance away
steeping. He dug in the middle of the two men. Then put in mom's body
his father went into one hole.
The fifth day he finished burying all the bodies in the village. They
he just buried it. Just buried and gone odorless and hopefully
unexcavated animals. They he buried near his dead body lying. There's a
near the stairs like her sister. There's someone in the middle of the yard like his mother. Exists
under the tree like some of the other neighbors. He must bury
they're all. Although during his life, they hated him he had no taste
the slightest grudge against this village man.
Day six, he went somewhere. It's already dusk. He walked
limped. The rain and cold air had saved the wound on his back
wide to not rot quickly. On the way, he suddenly realized
that in addition to digging the grave, he also used the Samurai
stuck in his father's chest as a stick so that his body does not collapse.
He could not remember when he picked up the samurai holster. But the obvious
now he's holding it.
He was going to throw away the samurai. He cut a large piece of wood
sleeves. But suddenly he was stunned. His father's voice and oath shortly before
collapsed after being hit by Samurai Saburo, ringing back.
“You won't survive Saburo! I swear I will demand revenge from the hereafter. You
they will also die by the samurai. You'll feel how your country's weapons are stabbed
His hands shivered in light of the oath. And suddenly he threw away the wood
he just took it. He held the samurai in his hands. Then start
stride over. I don't know where he is. No one knows. Months after
that is, when the atmosphere is quite safe, the people of Situjuh Laweh Field, the village
Datuk Berbangsa, return one by one from their refugees.
They got the graves of irregular victims of the massacre
cause them to flee. They dug up the graves, they,
and buried in the tombs of the people. They wonder when they are not
found the body of the Bungsu. Some of them saw
it is clear how wretched the young man was*****worn in Captain Saburo's samurai service.
But where's the body? If there is no body, who has buried it
these bodies? Didn't he die, and then he buried them all
this corpse? Cannot be. The young man could not do good
anything for this country. Because his father betrayed him. Isn't the target
that secret was his father leading? And he did not sell secrets
that's on the Japanese until they're all caught and killed? There's no way she's
who buried the body.
“Perhaps the carcass was not buried by people. Because the person who
burying this probably knows that he's a bastard. And the body remains
abandoned, then finally eaten by a dog or tiger who came from
mount there . ” a talking man.
And it is this opinion that trusts him the most. And for the villagers, though,
that young man would indeed be better off dying an enlightened tiger than living a life-making
shame state. The young man is thought to have been buried in the belly of the animal. Tak
care about dogs, tigers or lizards. He vanished like the earth swallowed and did not
some people try to remember it, except for the bad. Life
the village at the waist of Mount Sago located far from the city of Payakumbuh
back as usual.
The Japanese never came there again. But that doesn't mean that
japanese soldiers have stopped their atrocities in Minangkabau. Nah! Cruelness
these narrow-eyed and short-bodied people are almost evenly distributed
felt by residents in the city and the countryside on the edge of the city that is occupied
by the Japanese army. Situjuh Laweh Field they forget because
his fighters are dead. Datuk Maruhun, reportedly, died at Logas. So
also friends.
