Blind Devil
Chapter 15: I'm Sorry Miss

Aria Pilong after being appointed as the ruler of Mount Lawu, at the request of Nyi Selasih was silent for several days in the palace of Kali dead.

The spacious room with a soft bed became Aria's resting place.

But if any man passed near the dead which became the palace of the soft men, they would see Aria sometimes lying down or sitting on a boulder, accompanied by a green serpent.

“So Nyi Selasih once every 50 years change skin? Ask Aria.

“Betul Raden! If you are changing the skin, you must rest for 7 days, then the strength of the servant recovers,” replied Nyi Selasih.

Aria tries to reject Nyi Selasih, but the subtle-beings insist on continuing to follow Aria.

“What if Nyi Selasih recover the strength here first, then later follow me,” said Aria.

“Raden do not want to be followed by me,” Reply Nyi Selasih in a sad tone.

“Not so Nyi, I am a blind man, there is even me who troubles Nyi Selasih.”

“I'm even happy if I can help Raden, indeed with the knowledge that I have can not make Raden's eyes see humans, but I can make Raden can see creatures like me,” reply Nyi Selasih, “and again I can warm Raden's body,” said Nyi Selasih in a soft tone.

“Lantas if Nyi Selasih comes with me, where will Nyi Selasih stay? Ask Aria.

“I can stay in Raden's wand, we invisible creatures love the wagangian, and the sweet smell of sandalwood in Raden's wand makes me feel at home in it.”

Aria could no longer refute Nyi Selasih, and Nyi Selasih eventually joined together, as Aria continued on her way to Wengker through the dead Kali Forest.

***

As he was walking in the forest, suddenly Aria's nose smelled something burning with fire.

“Asap...there is a smelly smoke in this forest,” Inner Aria.

“If there is smoke there is fire, if this forest burns, I can be doomed.

“I have to find the source of the fire, down the smoke I smell,” back Aria said inwardly.

“Be careful Raden! This smell is not the smell of ordinary smoke,” sound comes from sandalwood sticks.

Aria sandalwood sticks turned green and scaly like the body of a snake, after Nyi Selasih inhabited the stick that became the guide of Aria.

Aria nods her head to hear Nyi Selasih's words.

Aria then followed the source of the smoke she smelled.

Meanwhile somewhere else.

A girl was lying down while staring and noticing a hole as big as a wrist, the position of the hole was on the lower wall of the hill.

“Hurry out the snake king! I can't wait to take your poison,” said the girl as she watched the small hole in front of her.

“The king of red snakes is a rare snake that is very poisonous, if the snake is successfully in the can, then dried can be made poison powder or a mixture of anti-poison drugs.”

The girl recalled her grandfather's message, that the poison produced by the King of the serpents, could help their plots from the threat of some paraphernalia that called them from the black stream.

For a few days he noticed the hole where the king's nest of red snakes was, but the snake, having managed to escape when it was about to be caught, then did not come out again in the hole, the girl had to wait a few days in front of the hole.

“The seven-color jasmine powder is just a little more, if the snake king still does not come out, it looks like I will have to wait a few more months to get it,” the beautiful young girl said inwardly.

The girl gathered the dry straw and the little wood, and put the straw and wood in front of the hole that became the lair of the King of red snakes.

Slowly the girl took out a small knife and a black stone.

The black stone is stirred into a small knife, sparks visible from the noise of the two objects.

After several splashes of straw, the straw began to light up, the girl then blew the straw.

After a fire in a large husk, the girl took out a small black pouch, took the powder out of the bag, then sprinkled it over the burning straw.

After burning, the girl then lay down while holding her breath and noticed the hole that became the nest of the snake king.

The smell of burning powder scented, the girl while lying down, slowly blowing smoke towards the snake hole.

The young girl had clear eyes and was beautiful, constantly observing towards the hole.

A smile on the lips of the girl is seen, when you see a red shadow in the hole.

“Exit...get out O king of snakes,” said the girl, seeing the snake that was being hunted slowly, half of her body began to come out of the nest.

As her attention focused on the snake king's nest, the girl did not notice beside her collapsed body, two feet were standing nearby.

Both are unaware of each other's existence.

The head of the horned snake as big as a red thumb, visible in front of the hole, his tongue sticking out like it was smelling and enjoying the smoke from the burning powder.

As the snake came out toward the straw, a voice suddenly sounded beside the girl.

Hm!

“Dry season is very dangerous if the fire becomes big,” after the sound is heard.

The sound of the lid of the water bag opened, the water flowed from the top to the bottom of the burning straw.

The straws and small twigs were instantly extinguished, the red king snake was startled, then re-entered into its hiding hole.

Not to the surprise of the girl when she heard a voice beside her, her body bouncy and stood in front of a person who was holding a bag of water.

“Bigger! You foiled my plan!? Shouted the girl with great fury while pulling out a small knife.

The young man who was none other than Aria, was also shocked when he heard the voice of the woman in front of him.

Seeing a young man standing while carrying a cane, with a caping covering part of his face, the girl frowned, then said.

“You blind?

“Sorry miss, I don't know if anyone is around here,” reply Aria.

Aria when the road approached did not know there was a girl who was lying down while looking at the snake king hole, because the girl held her breath, making Aria not feel the presence of the girl.

So did the girl, so excited to see the snake king who was about to come out, the slow steps of Aria he did not hear, making both of them surprised.

“You blind? Back the girl asked, while paying attention to Aria's face.

“True miss, I am blind,” replied Aria with a bitter smile.

Cis!

“You have made me lose the king of snakes, as well as jasmine powder 7 colors,” back the girl said in a high tone.

“Sorry miss! For a blind man in the middle of the forest, it is very dangerous to know there is fire, my nose smelled smoke, until I reached this place to put out the fire,” Aria replied.

“I light the fire! Whether or not this forest burns is none of my business, but you have made my snake king escape.

“You know not? I have lived here for days just to wait for the snake king to come out, a little more snake king came out and all failed because of you,” cried the girl with a huff.

“Sorry miss! I don't know,” Aria replied in a regretful tone.

Aria's wand seemed to tremble, Nyi Selasih who was in the stick was impatient when he heard the girl's words, if the stick was not held tightly by Aria, there is a possibility that the stick shot itself hit the girl who was cursing at Aria.

“Wait first! Exclaimed the girl when she just realized, why in the wilderness that is rarely passed and is famous for being haunted, there are blind people.

“Who are you really? Ask the girl.

“Blind person,” replied Aria.

Suddenly the girl attacked Aria.

Whut..plak!

Aria's cheeks looked red from the girl's slap.

“Bigger! quickly release the hand of Raden, let me break the boy's head,” said Nyi Selasih in a high tone, after knowing Aria got a slap from the girl.

“Don't act rashly Nyi, let it go! Slowly Aria said trying to calm Nyi Selasih.

“Why did miss slap me? Aria asked with a confused face.

Aria actually knew herself to be attacked, but she did not deliberately dodge, knowing from the wind of the attack being launched, the girl's punch was harmless.

“You are indeed blind,” said the girl while frowning.

“I am indeed blind, why lie,” reply Aria, then continue to say.

“Nona has replied to me, for that I beg you to beg yourself, sorry if you have disturbed the lady to catch a snake,” after saying, Aria turned around and stepped away.

“Wait first! Shouted the girl as she watched Aria leave.

“You must account for your actions in front of my grandfather,” said the girl.

Aria stopped walking, slowly turning around.

“What do you mean miss? Ask Aria.

“You must come, and tell my grandfather, that the cause of my failure to capture the king of the serpents, is not because I am incapable, but because of your actions, the king of the serpents fled.”

“You must follow me to Wisanggeni.” Say the Girl

“Sorry! I can't meet the lady's request,”Aria replied to the girl's words.

Hm!

“There is no other way,” after saying slowly the girl sprinkled yellow powder in front of Aria.

“Sy girl! I killed you!? A loud hissing sound rang out from Nyi Selasih's wand.

“What's Nyi? Ask Aria.

“The girl sprinkled anesthetic poison to Raden,” replied Nyi Selasih.

“Let it be Nyi! I have the sense to get out of this forest, without having to step tired,” Aria replied.

Aria knew that the dope scattered by the girl would be absorbed by the sandalwood stick, and would have no effect on her.

Shortly after, a shadow was seen streaking through the forest.

A young girl with her mouth kept grumbling, was holding an unconscious young man.

“Basic blind fucker! If you know it's gonna be like this, I won't take out the anesthetic poison.

While continuing to carry Aria, the girl darted out of the forest of Kali dead.

If the girl was aware of her own stupidity, she would know that the young man was just pretending to be unconscious.

Because the young man's hand continued to hold tightly to the green-colored stick that continued to tremble was about to break away from the grasp.

Aria's head leaned against the lady's back, a smile visible on the young man's lips.

“For what walk, if there is a girl who wants to carry me.”
