Dragon and Phoenix
Chapter 8: In Goa

Long time he shined. He did not realize that it was past noon. Hurry up and go home for lunch. Baked mushrooms are his lunch. After eating the mushrooms, his body became increasingly fresh and strong.

“Ran, every time I finish eating these mushrooms, my body feels so light and fresh. Maybe these mushrooms do have very high properties,” thought Cio San.

One day when finished scratching the marker on the wall of the cave, Cio San was pensive. The marks he had scratched on the wall using A Liang's blade already numbered 50.That means it has been almost 2 months he was in the bowels of the earth.

How astonishing his fate was. Able to survive in the midst of darkness and loneliness. But that is destiny. Cio San never forgets to thank Thian (sky), that he is still protected by safety and protection.

He checked that the water was getting higher. He sought a higher place as his footing. But not how long the water has now touched the tip of his finger.

Now there is no more dry place. The longer the water went up, and now it's touching his knee.

Cio San panic. But he kept trying to calm down. He has tried hard to find a solution, but he still can not as well.

Not long after the water had touched his chest. Cio San now has to swim. He resigned. If he must drown, he will drown. But now there is at least something he can do.

The water pressure is getting worse. He now felt his chest being thrown down by water. In order to withstand the blow, it exerts its inner energy throughout the body. The push of the water was very strong and it crashed into the wall of the cave. Fortunately his inner strength was able to protect him so that he was not hurt in the slightest.

The water has now reached his neck, and Cio San continues to swim.

“Shortly longer, if the water hits the ceiling then finish my history.”

And the water did finally touch the ceiling. Cio San finally drained his inner energy into his lungs. As a result, he can dive for a long time, because his internal power provides enough air for his lungs.

Now he must concentrate his mind to divide the course of his inner energy. While the rushing current continues to throw it into the cave wall that feels sharp and very cold.

Cio San tried to hold on. For many minutes he was in such a state. The supply of energy into all his organs is still a lot. Cio San tried to stay calm, but he was not upset that he was panicking as well.

He was not sure how long he could last using only his inner strength. Finally he found an idea. Gathering all the energy at the end of his fist, he struck the ceiling of the cave. Cio San hit hard. He did not know that his power was now so great. An

a hole the size of his fist appeared on the ceiling. He was so happy that this effort worked. In the hole, he put his mouth and nose. Although small, the hole helped him to breathe. His head was no longer able to appear on the surface of the water. Only in this hole in the ceiling of the cave could he put his nose and mouth to take a breath. His hand gripped the ceiling of the cave in order to keep his nose and mouth in the hole.

I don't know how long he's been in that position. Cio San kept trying to survive. He looked towards ‘air’ window, now there is no light from it, it means it is night.

He was in such a position for a long time. The hunger appeared. Fortunately, the mushrooms grew in the ceiling so Cio San could eat them.

Days changed days, it did not feel like it had been 5 days he survived with such conditions. Cio San did not realize that he was actually experiencing a very heavy training. The force of the water boost, the extremely thin air, and the efficacy of the Sin Hong mushroom made it feel like it had experienced a 10-year forging. In just 5 days, his breathing was now very strong. This was actually useful as he gathered his strength of inner strength. His skin was now very strong because of the swift push of water, not only carrying stones that hit his body, but also had soaked a lot

once a Sin Hong mushroom. Water that already contains the properties of the magic fungus that makes the outer body such as eyes, skin, meat and hair, began to be immune from various toxins.

Only on day 7, slowly the water began to decline. Cio San was delighted, although the receding motion of the water was not as fast as the rise. It took 3 days, and all the water in the tunnel subsided. It was still left knee-high Cio San.

With relief he threw his body. He felt so tired. Exerting energy in for almost ten days amid the strong push of water and the plunge of the rocks, made him very tired. Cio san finally fainted.

After waking up from his stings, he tried to exert energy throughout his organs. It turned out that very quickly his body felt refreshed. Cio San then filled his stomach with mushrooms that grew heavily on the wall. Fortunately, although the flood water is very heavy, it does not erode all the fungi that are inside

the goa tunnel.

He began to look around trying to observe the state of ‘home’nya it. Cio San was not aware that he was slowly beginning to see in the darkness. His concerned life in the cave made him have to save everything. Starting from food, twigs for fuel, as well as the use of fire stones. She is sometimes naked to save on her clothes. Because if too often used will be damaged quickly. Especially if used to practice silat.

The flood had further damaged his clothes. Cio San was looking for a way to find a replacement for his clothes.  Eventually he came up with the idea of using woven bark as clothing. Cio San then rushed to gather the woods. Floods brought a lot of wood. After a long time of collecting

the woods, he skinned them one by one, then weaved the skins.

Cio San worked cheerfully. After escaping death several times, he finally valued life more. He felt he had to enjoy every second of his life, because death could come at any time. If we one day

surely it will die, why live in sorrow and despair? Eventually, he will die too. Why not live life happily? So thought Cio San.

 Finally finished also woven bark that he made knee-high pants. The rest will be saved to make clothes. Cio San was amazed himself with his woven pants. It's not very neat, but he's still proud. He immediately wears it. It feels a bit big. But he took another sheet

the bark is rather long to be used as a belt. Pas is already. With a smile he twitched his hips to see if the pants would not sag again.

Several days passed by Cio San in the tunnel with peace. Not to forget he gave additional scratches marker the day of his life in the cave. It's been 3 months. He already feels comfortable. He could see clearly in the darkness. Only occasionally does he use lighting. That's also only in

when cooking, or doing things that need accuracy such as distinguishing mushrooms.

Cio San did not forget to practice his silat. Now 6 months in the cave, Cio San instead found new moves again. The incident, as always, was the beginning of an accident. Because of living in the dark, and constantly hearing the sound of rushing water, Cio San's hearing and feelings developed very rapidly. This may be due to the efficacy of Sin Hong mushroom as well.

If he used to catch fish must use lighting, now he can catch fish only by using his hearing. At first, he felt his ears begin to distinguish the sounds in the water. For a long time he could even listen to the sounds caused by fish while swimming. At first it was only big fish, but finally he could also distinguish the sound caused by small fish in the water. The sound was clearly not the sound of the mouth of the fish, but the flapping of the fins and tail of the fish. To distinguish these sounds, it takes a fairly heavy concentration of mind. But because Cio San often did, then soon he could determine the position of the fish in the water. Cio San took his fish spear, then tried his new ‘ilu’. Spear fish using only hearing. Before long, he managed to catch some big fish. Day after day he went through by training this ability.

now follow the water wave. Soft, yet flowing strong and sure. Thio Sam Hong did create Thay Kek Kun from the aligned movements of nature. Motion of water, air, clouds, etc. Cio San accidentally discovered the essence of the teachings of Thio Sam Hong. The main meaning of Thay Kek Kun is

aligning yourself with nature. So when Cio San managed to empty his mind, then his body motion followed the motion of water, he had accidentally mastered the core of the Thay Kek Kun.

He started to shine. His hands formed a circular motion over the water in front of him. The movement of the circle was initially slow and gentle. But over time his movements got faster and stronger. Then it gets stronger, stronger, and stronger. Then at high speed, Cio San smacked both of his palms

over the turbulent water, and….

Blaaaaaaarrr.......!!!!

The splash of water was so powerful that it made the wall on the left right, also above it vibrate violently, causing a very loud noise.

Cio San was even surprised by the results of his actions earlier. What a great power he produced, but did not use one-twentieth of his energy. If used all, surely he was able to break down the walls of the cave. Thinking about this, he was very happy. But then he thought again, “If I get out of here, surely I will be slandered and chased again. Better stay here forever. I can survive what's here. I can also accompany A Liang.”

Remembering A Liang, he went to visit his grave. Fortunately, even though the flood was very heavy, it did not damage A Liang's grave. Previously, Cio San had piled several large rocks on top of the grave. It turned out that the stones were jiggling as well, although not far away. Cio San then returned the stones to their original position, then cleaned the dirt in the form of branches and plants carried by the flood. He then ‘tales’ to A Liang, that he has just found a new science that is very powerful. After a long time telling stories, he finally returned to ‘home stay’nya near ‘air’ window. It was night already.

That's how Cio San went through his days training that new science. If it used to be in the water, then now he decided to practice in the waterfall to try the power of his knowledge. He rushed to the waterfall where the flow of water into the tunnel. It was also a long journey inside the tunnel.

Cio San around the waterfall. The shape is beautiful but holds the power of nature is very powerful. Cio San became reminded of the science of Thay Kek Kun his great creation. “It turns out Thay Temp created his great sciences from this realm. People whose minds are open, can definitely catch any science from nature.”

It does. All human science comes from nature. Nature gets it from God. God uses nature as a medium of instruction for man. It is from nature that man learns to survive and adapt. From naturelah man can be ‘manusia’. So the man who left nature, surely

he is a foolish man who will one day be devoured by nature itself.

Cio San in addition to his intelligent brain, his silat talent turned out to be very large. With a little attention, he could grasp the meanings. He even created silat based on his observations and tests. Luckily he was helped by all sorts of events and events, which added to his experience and

sharpen his mind. The event was connected from the beginning to this moment. Maybe later when he died, this connecting event will be connected to his grandchildren. So it continues until the apocalypse. God is so mighty, that this incessant incident.

Who would have thought that a weak little child, born even nine months in the womb, could become a disciple of Bu Tong-pay? Who would have thought that a child whose entire internal organs were functioning improperly, would be able to survive in the bowels of the earth like this? Who would have thought that a child who was considered very talented in silat science, was even able to

creating powerful magic moves?

Life is always like that. Didn't you see too often, there was a child when a child with a mediocre face, but after adulthood he turned into a beautiful beauty? Have you not seen many times, there are children who are very beautiful and funny when they are small, but when they grow up they become ugly and unattractive?

Or have you not often seen, a child who is considered stupid and lazy by teachers and friends, even turned into the most successful and wealthy than his friends? And vice versa, often you see a child who used to be smart and diligent, now only a lowly employee in

his village?

Life is always like a wheel. God throws pleasure on the screeching. When God gives you much suffering, God is training you and preparing you to receive His many gifts and pleasures.

That's what happened to Cio San. Since childhood he was often sickly, because it was born abnormal. His whole family was killed. While studying in college, he often received ill treatment from fellow students, even from some temperatures. Then he was slandered to participate in the murder of his own teacher, and chased like a thief. He lost his best friend, and lived in the bowels of the earth as it is today.

Come to think of it, no one will smile when they experience this.

Cio San was smiling. But not smiling for that reason. He smiled because he felt like he had a new challenge. Against the terrible pressure of the waterfall. The waterfall was about 5 spears high. With complete confidence, Cio San entered the water and walked down the waterfall. Boldly, he greeted the pouring water that hit. Very heavy and also sharp. Cio San put all his energy into it. It uses all the energy channeled through its soles to resist the torrent of water. His chest was like being squeezed by a water blow and his own internal energy boost. It lasted quite a while, but this situation was really terrible. It did not feel like blood was starting to flow from his mouth and nose. The battle of man against nature is certain to be won by nature. Unless man uses his main weapon, namely his reason.Once remembered the words that his father had spoken, he seemed to get a new idea. He no longer launched an attack through the palm, but received the water in a swirling manner. But the rotation was done when his body floated parallel to the earth. The rotation was terrible. It even floated continuously in the air. The power of the water and its own internal energy, making it stay floating while circling in the middle of the waterfall.

He gathered his strength in his chest. The accumulated energy moves like a brain-iron that sucks up all the rushing thrust of a waterfall. The power of the waterfall was like being sucked into his body. Then as the power grew bigger and filled his body, Cio San felt unable to take it anymore. He channeled the accumulated energy into his palm, then smashed it upwards against the waterfall, and……

Bllaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr........!!!!!!

The sound was heard again, but much louder and more powerful. Many walls were falling apart. Even the water hole where the waterfall came out is now gaping bigger.

It is a great power that he has produced. By following the flow of energy pushing the waterfall, Cio San instead managed to gather that energy in him. Then with his ability to direct energy, he made his own power. The result was terrible. If this is hit at a hundred

people, then it is certain they will all die with their bodies destroyed.

Realizing this, Cio San was horrified. He became very afraid. How could a human possess this much power? If anyone had this much power, his lust would have told him to defeat anyone. It is only fitting that silat experts like to fight once. Is to satisfy

fighting lust.

Cio San became very afraid that he would end up like his Liang-lopek. The Lopek in his youth has trained great science, and able to defeat first-class heroes. Even challenging the most prominent figure in the world Kang Ouw so that he eventually lost and was forced to fulfill his promise to become a devotee and

the lackeys at Bu Tong-pay.

He then ran to his Liang-lopek tomb. Crying and praying, in order to be given the strength to resist the impulse of fighting lust. Basically, Cio San is indeed a child who is tasteful and smooth. He doesn't want to hurt anyone.
