*The Secrets of the Howling Gorge (Configuration)*
A teenage girl walks quickly down a rocky ravine. He was so agile to move on the rock cliffs, as if he had mapped out a special path, that it made it easy to jump there and come.
Until finally the girl dressed all in black arrived at the bottom of a dry ravine. The single braided-haired girl momentarily looked over the lips of the ravine. As if no one wants to see it. Next he walked through the stone wall and disappeared.
The beautiful thick-browed teenager appeared in a rocky environment, but still had some large trees as a coolant for the area. In the neighborhood there is also a simple house of wood, which at the bottom there is a water seal that the channel is specially made.
Somewhat far from the house, there was a woman dressed in green, who was still a young woman of thirty years old, sitting on a block of stone facing the stone wall for five spears.
Duars! Duars! Duars…!
The natural red-lipped woman repeatedly touched her right middle finger. With nothing to see shot from the jolt, but there were explosions in the hole that had been created deep enough in the stone wall. He is Anai Layang who is more famous by the nickname Red Lip Princess.
Anai Layang remained focused on his training. Without needing to see, Anai Layang knew that the one who came was Murai Manikam, the child he called the Subtle Child. The title he gave because at a young age he had mastered the science of silence at a high level. He is able to be in a crowd without being known by anyone, even near a powerful person.
“What did you get, Murai?” anai Layang asked without looking when Murai Manikam arrived near his teacher.
Murai first sat down on the stone before answering his teacher's question. Despite his status as a disciple, Murai did not show any respect. It was because it was Anai's order that did not want any formality of respect. Most importantly Murai as a disciple did not act presumptuously excessively.
“Ningsih Dirama dumped into Anker Forest, Guru!” murai.
“Have you checked Angker Forest?”
“Already teacher. There were two men living there, named Anjas and Gurudi. Anjas handsome young man, Gurudi a midget man loyal to his master,” replied Murai.
“You think they're bad or good people?” ask Anai Layang.
“They are good people.”
“If so, keep an eye on them!”
“Good, Teacher!”
A few days later, Murai Manikam went back to the Angker Forest to see the condition of Ningsih Dirama which was then hit hard.
By using the science of Silence, Murai can supervise Ningsih Dirama who at that time had lived one neighborhood with Anjas Perjana and Gurudi. Murai had to be surprised to see that Ningsih Dirama had recovered from his stinking, stinky stomach illness.
Although Anjas is a powerful person, but he never felt the slightest presence of Murai who was sheltering in a veil room.
Murai could one day and two days watch over the lives of Ningsih Dirama and Anjas. He even witnessed the intimacy between Anjas and Ningsih, including hearing more private chats.
Murai also witnessed the marriage between Anjas and Ningsih. Gurudi as a witness. Marriage that does not qualify the number of witnesses is considered valid, understandably considered an emergency as a pandemic period that is nothing called an emergency.
However, for the affairs of marital relationship, Murai chose to turn right because he was ashamed of himself, especially he was still a minor according to the criteria of the Child Protection Law Article 1 point 1, 1, under 18 years old.
All what he saw and heard, Murai reported to Anai Layang.
How happy Anai Layang was when she found out that Ningsih Dirama gave birth to a red-lipped baby boy. Because he was too happy, he cut two chickens as a form of gratitude. He burned the chicken with Murai.
Murai did not have time to find the whereabouts of Anjas and Ningsih, he preferred to follow where Gurudi went. Apparently, Gurudi went to Gluguk Hill, where Ki Ageng Kunsa Pari lived.
“Squiet Shop entrusted in residence Ki Ageng Kunsa Pari, Guru!” murai reported after he returned home after traveling far enough from Gluguk Hill.
“Good, that means Joko's future will be good in the hands of Ki Ageng Kunsa Pari,” said Anai Layang.
“But I don't know where Anjas and Ningsih, Guru,” Murai said.
“Hah! Then who brought Joko to Ki Ageng Kunsa Pari?” ask Anai Layang.
“Si Midget Gurudi,” replied Murai.
“Tomorrow you return to the Forest of Angker to search for traces of Anjas and Ningsih.
The next day, Murai returns to the Angker Forest to track the departure of Anjas and Ningsih. However, he found nothing, except an area of forest roads damaged by the former fight between Anjas and Prabu Raga Sata. The absence of the corpses of the Demon Kingdom warriors left behind on the scene, left Murai with no idea who had ever fought on that forest path.
Initially the corpses of the Demon Kingdom soldiers were left behind, but then there were other troops assigned to evacuate the corpses of the soldiers.
Murai then returned to his teacher's residence with no results.
“Hopefully Ningsih is fine,” said Anai who is the aunt of Ningsih Dirama.
Ten years later, Anai Layang appeared carrying a red cylindrical object, only an inch long as an adult. An object as thick as a circle of the tengan finger and thumb, tucked in its white color belt.
“Teacher want to go outside? Use the Stick Jengkal Dewa,” asked Murai when he saw his teacher dressed and decorated more beautiful, plus carrying the heirloom of the Stick Jengkal Dewa. She has grown into a beautiful girl. Her hairstyle is still the same, single braided.
“I want to go hand over this heirloom to Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo,” replied Anai Layang.
“Who is he, Teacher?”
“His sister Ki Ageng Kunsa Pari. This heirloom I will bequeath to Joko Calm, but I will leave it to Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo.”
Go Red Lip Princess and Murai Manikam to Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo's residence in a hidden cave.
“Really I dare not accept this dangerous heirloom, Anai Layang,” Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo said after Abai Layang expressed his intention.
Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo is an all-white haired grandfather with a straw but gray beard. The grandfather was wearing a black robe and was clad in a pitch-black wooden stick. Uniquely the stick was that he had a head carved like a pineapple.
“As long as no one knows, then you will be safe. Someday if Joko Calm down, Ki Ageng Kunsa Pari's student comes to see you, you can give it to him. Joko Calm is my descendant from my nephew.”
“Can't you give him directly?” ask Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo.
“True, but I want to be imprisoned and do not want the slightest of my existence sniffed by martial world warriors,” kilah Anai.
“Good. Consider my repayment for my life debt to you,” said Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo.
Thus, the official stick of the God Skeleton was kept by Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo, without daring to touch it. Ki Ageng Kunda Poyo knows the consequences if he holds the magic wand.
After that, Anai Layang and Murai Manikam returned to the Hidden Gorge. (BH)
