Death Flute
Kam Family

The flabbergasted warrior. “Applicable?” muttered.

“Cheng Sam became a member of Bukit Peacock for over twenty years, probably almost instantly after he was expelled from your college. Mr. Chang accepted him as a member because he knew nothing about the expulsion. Didn't you yourself say, the problem is a disgrace so that your college does not want to spread it?” Chien Wan stared hard.

“Ya, but..”.

“It is precisely because the news of the expulsion was not disseminated, then other universities would accept him as a member. Mr. Chang accepted it. Even Cheng Sam became his confidant all along. Finally, unbeknownst to Mr. Chang, he learned the science of disguise. You know that Mr. Chang Cin Te is an expert in disguise dubbed the God of a Thousand Faces, right?” Kui Fang continued Chien Wan's words.

Swordsman Yang did not expect this at all. He looked at the two guests. “So, it is possible that the villain who mastered our science was Cheng Sam who came to take revenge?”

“How big is the possibility!” nodding Kui Fang firmly. “And not only that. You heard of the calamity that happened all this time, right? About the attack by the Khitans, about the plundering on Merak Hill, and about the calamity that befell Wisma Bambu. All of it was masterminded by the same person!”

“Cheng Sam?” whispered the Swordsman Slowly.

“Betul.”

“Yes Lord!” exclaiming Swordsman Yang while rubbing his face. “But... how can he do this to us? Wasn't he once our brother? I would definitely never want to hurt my own brothers even if my teacher kicked me out though!”

“But Cheng Sam is not you, Swordsman Yang,” Chien Wan said slowly.

The stricken warrior.

It was then that Pendekar Sung's entourage arrived at that place. Their number was quite a lot so it increased the morale of the Red Eagle College members.

Swordsman who glanced at Chien Wan. “This talk will be continued later. Now the most important thing is to save Chairman Kam and his family.”

Chien Wan nodded.

They welcomed Swordsman Sung.

Soon they prepare for an attack on Red Eagle College. They are very carefully prepared. Don't let Chairman Kam's family get hurt by this raid.

It was agreed that some people would release Chairman Kam and his family first before the attack was carried out. Chien Wan and Swordsman Yang will sneak into the college to go to the dungeon, where Chairman Kam is imprisoned.

The advantage they had was as a senior member, the Swordsman who knew that there was some kind of secret passageway inside the dungeon. The secret passage was built a few years ago without the knowledge of the other members. The only one who knows is Pendekar Yang himself and his men. They intentionally do that in case they have to face an emergency. They can use the secret passage to hide.

The others will wait outside, waiting for the cue.

After all the plans were matured, all of them immediately organized an army and prepared for the Red Eagle College. Chien Wan and Swordsman Yang left first.

***

The underground prison of Red Eagle College was filled with members of the college itself. Chairman Kam and his wife and two children were placed in the cell closest to the entrance. They seem very anxious.

“My husband, what should we do?” ask Mrs Kam, a beautiful woman about 40 years old. She held her husband's arm tightly. His body trembled in the cold as this underground prison was extremely damp and cold.

Chief Kam shook his head. He glanced desperately at the steel bars of the barrier between himself and freedom. He's very angry. During his dozen years as chairman, he had never experienced this session fate. Imprisoned in his own school!

“Do you know who the villain is?” ask his son to get angry. Kam Cin Hu was a handsome and talented twenty-year-old youth. His science is pretty clever. But his cleverness was not enough to match the prowess of those criminals.

“Dad, I'm afraid..” muttered his daughter was agitated. Kam Cin Mei was seventeen years old. Very pretty and charming. He was very uneasy because he realized that the criminals looked at him and his mother several times with interest.

Chairman Kam grabbed his daughter's hand and grasped it tightly. “Do not be afraid. I'll protect you.”

Just then, the outer cell door opened. Enter three men. They were laughing while opening the door of Chief Kam's cell.

“What pathetic. A silat college chairman must be imprisoned in his own college!” teased one of the men whose body was a bit thick.

His friend replied as he looked with interest at Cin Mei and Madam Kam, “Ya. Unfortunately he brought his family too. Though these two women can live well with us!”

The thick-bodied man turned his head and smirked at the beauty of Cin Mei and her mother. He approached them and reached out to touch them. But Chairman Kam immediately pulled his wife and pushed her behind his own body. His son did the same to his sister.

The thick-bodied man spat. “Have been held captive still do not know themselves!” the hardic. He approached and hit Chairman Kam's face hard to make the man slammed. Her Istir screamed as she hugged her husband.

“Beched!” Kam Cin Hu lunged and charged at the stocky man with his fists. In his anger, he forgot his sister was unprotected. He mustered his wits to at least hit the stocky man.

But the stocky man dodged and threw a hard kick that made the young man fall in pain. Blood gushed from his mouth. And he was unconscious.

“Cin Hu!” his mother panicked.

“Dad, Mother! Please!”

Chairman Kam and his wife turned their heads and saw Cin Mei being pulled around by one of the criminals towards the cell door. The girl thrashed while screaming.

“Cin May!” raung Kam's Chairman. He rushed towards the door, but a kick sent him crashing back.

While Cin Mei had stopped screaming because it turned out that the criminal beat her unconscious.

Brak!

The cell door slammed shut. The stocky man looked at the Kam family fiercely from behind bars. “It's still good I just took your daughter! Next time I'll take your wife! Ha ha ha!”

Chief Kam drowned and drooped on the floor. Madam Kam was sobbing. Their son fainted.

The other Red Eagle College members imprisoned in other cells could only be stuck regretting fate. They were very sad to hear what happened. They want to help their boss, but what are their strengths? They themselves cannot get out of the cage!

Chief Kam rubbed his face with resignation. He doesn't know how to. It was then that his eyes caught something twitching outside his cell. It widens the eyes. The stone floor on the outside of the cage crackled and one of the tiles was exposed.

From under the stone tiles, a head appeared that was already known by Chairman Kam, making him aghast and stand up.

“Acik Yang!”

Hearing Chairman Kam's call, all the caged members simultaneously stood up.

Swordsman Yang jumped out and put a finger in his mouth. “Sst!” whispered. Then he looked down at the hole on the floor and stretched out his hand to pull someone up. Chien Wan jumped to the side of Swordsman Yang.

Chairman Kam did not know the young man in black clothes who came with Pendekar Yang, but he guessed it was Pendekar Yang's friend who helped him.

The warrior who approached. “Chairman, don't worry. We came to free you.”

“You still have a spare key in your pocket?” ask Chairman Kam happily.

Swordsman who nodded.

All cell doors are opened with a spare key.

After all the members were freed, they were collected near a hole in the floor. Swordsman who told them to come out one by one. He said that right on the way out of this hole, Pendekar Sung's entourage was waiting. As soon as they're all free, they'll storm in to take over the college.

But Mrs Kam exclaimed stifled, “Cin May! He brought them!”

The surprised warrior.

Chief Kam walked towards the outer door of the cell. “I have to save my son. You guys take my wife and Cin Hu out!”

“No, the Chairman is out. Let me and Pendekar Ouwyang save Cin Mei,” tell Pendekar Yang.

Chief Kam glanced at it as if he was about to refute. But he said nothing and nodded. He jumped down after his wife and son who had left first.

Swordsman Yang and Chien Wan took a look. They then headed for the cell's outer door. Swordsman who took out a key and put it in the lock hole hanging on the cell door. Then they came out.
