DRAGON CARVED JADE BRACELET

DRAGON CARVED JADE BRACELET
EPISODE 256: THE HEIR


    That morning Jamil, Juminem, Melian and Irul, the four of them went to the top of Mount Bugel hill. They will find out who is actually Grandma Amak as told by Juminem and Jamil, who at that time was Grandma Amak had asked about the dragon-carved jade bracelet worn by Melian. At that time Melian was still a baby, who certainly did not know anything and did not remember about his life history.


    From the bottom of the hill, they walked to reach the top of the cemetery. The place is still further from Cik Lan's funeral, Mamahnya Melian. The four of them walked together to the cemetery which according to Jamil's story, the burial place had once pulled the body of Grandma Amak. The place is indeed the top at the top of Mount Bugel. In the past, when Melian was a baby, Jamil and Juminem once drove Grandma Amak to look for the grave of Ms. Lan, who was thought to have a kinship with her. But it turns out that Melian's mother is not his relative. At that time, the curious Grandma Amak, Grandma Amak who wants to know who is actually Melian's parents, who is actually Melian's bloodline, so when they found a burial place on the top of the hill, never thought that he would find the grave of his parents, namely his father Grandma Amak.


    Indeed, according to the stories of the original people living in Kampung Naga, people who are elderly, people who are elders, people who are old, who is said to have heard the story of the beginning of the formation of Kampung Naga, they say that Grandma Amak should have been hundreds of years old. But no matter what the secret, Grandma Amak still looks fresh, even with the old grandmothers in the village still look younger Grandma Amak. It is said that Grandma Amak is the heir to the old house in the village of Naga which is now inhabited by Juminen and Jamil and the choice.


    Indeed, at that time many people wanted to buy the house occupied by Jamil. But every person will buy, Grandma Amak always never allow. He even said that the house would never be sold. For some reason, when Jamil brought his wife and son, stayed at the house, who actually did not know, because at that time they were only men who drove a cow cart, he said, at that time, the ox cartman, unbeknownst to Jamil, the three of them were placed in the house, on the porch of the old house. Of course they didn't know, because everyone fell asleep while riding the ox cart.


    But when that morning arrived, Jamil who then woke his wife and child, he found the elderly grandmother of the owner of the house. Yes, she is Grandma Amak who has an ancient house, which is said to be the first house built in Kampung Naga.


    Jamil remembered very well, that the old house was suddenly only given to him. At the time, it was said that the money brought by Jamil was enough to pay for the house. As Jamil remembered, he had no money at all. But Jamil who was resigned to his condition, he according to what Grandma Amak said. They will also occupy the old house, until now Melian has become a mature virgin.


    At that time, Grandma Amak every morning came to Jamil's house, just wanted to see Melian, then carried her, then put Melian to sleep in her cradle. Then, one day, Grandma Amak asked about the jade bracelet worn by Melian. Jamil who does not know, especially Juminem, certainly can not give an answer. Melian is not her real son.


    Then, Grandma Amak also asked who Melian's parents really were. Jamil also said that Melian's parents are no longer there, have died, have been buried, have been buried. Then Grandma Amak asked that she be delivered to the grave of Melian's parents. Yes, Jamil remembered exactly the events of that time. When the four of them reached the top of Mount Bugel, when Grandma Amak was shown the grave of Cik Lan. But at that time, Grandma Amak began to hesitate, because she said, it was not the expected grave. He said, there are more descendants from other people who are more powerful in Dragon Village.


    Then Grandma Amak asked Melian who was then carried by Juminem. Melian was wearing a jade bracelet with the dragon engraving on her bopong. Grandma Amak brought the little baby closer to her mother's bongpai. Then Grandma Amak put together the jade bracelet on Melian's arm with the necklace pendant she was wearing. Then all of a sudden the wind******pair came crashing in the peak area of the cemetery. Even then, the sky turned dark. And suddenly Grandma Amak who was carrying Melian immediately floated and moved. It was like flying. Yes, at that time Grandma Amak with Melian had been carried away by the wind to the cemetery which was at the top. The two men, grandmother and baby Melian seemed to be possessed by supernatural forces, and fell on a larger and very sturdy bongpai, which was at the top of Mount Bugel.


    Jamil remembers very well with Juminem who ran will ask for back Melian brought by Grandma Amak. But the two of them, Jamil and Juminem are swept away by the strong winds, and fall on the outskirts of the bongpai. Jamil knows exactly that place. He remembered his place. He remembered the bongpai at the top of the cemetery. Then, jamil took Juminem, Melian and Irul to the place.


    "Imiss .... This isthe place. Yes .., I still remember very well, this bongpai that Grandma Amak then put Melian's arm with her jade bracelet" said Jamil who showed the bongpai that had not been maintained, overgrown by weeds, until the bongpai covered the entire building. The bongpai is no longer visible from the outside. Only weeds are fertile and seem to keep the existence of the place a secret. No one would come to set foot in that place.


    "Is this really the place, Mr Jamil? asked Irul who began to brush the grass. He even began to pluck the weeds around the cemetery.


    "Yes .... I remember correctly .... This is the place. Try to see this .... Yes, this .... This bongpai stone has a hole. It used to be that Grandma Amak put Melian's hand that used the jade bracelet into this hole. See this ..., the hole is really in Melian's arm ..." said Jamil who showed the hole in the middle of the tombstone.


    "Why did Grandma Amak put Melian's arm in the stone hole, Mr. Jamil ...?" ask Irul who wants to know.


    "Yes .... The stone pit used by Grandma Amak to open the bongpai" Jamil said.


    Melian then went forward, approaching a large stone that seemed to be a wall for the cemetery. Melian looked carefully at the hole in the middle of the large stone wall. Melian looked around, and of course there were writings that used letters in ancient China. Maybe Melian didn't know what it meant, but she tried to understand that it wasn't a funeral. Yes, this cemetery is made of a large stone carved into a wall. This is a great work, a work that is very, very difficult for people today to do. Of course, the person who has a tomb like this is a rich man, or at least he is a leader who is respected by his people. Yes, of course to make a bongpai building from thick stone, it must take a very long time, it certainly takes a lot of energy, a lot of energy, and of course also the masons who can carve the stone perfectly. Surely the person in the funeral was not a random person. It must be a person who has great authority and influence.


    Melian silent. Melian watched carefully the hole. Melian wanted to try to put her hand into that hole. He wanted to know, what would happen if his hand wearing a dragon-carved jade bracelet, he put it in a hole as big as his arm. Can his hand come in? Would that jade bracelet also be able to fit into that hole?


    Melian tried to measure the hole. He wanted to know whether or not his hand could come in. But suddenly, Melian's left hand, wearing the jade bracelet, went straight into the hole in the middle of the stone. Yes, the hole had already dragged into Melian's hand wearing the dragon-carved jade bracelet.


    "Ac ......!!!"


    Suddenly Melian screamed in shock. Melian was surprised, his hand which he put into the hole seemed to tremble, as if moving violently, even as if there was energy, there was a tremendous force entering the arm. Melian remembered exactly how the jade bracelet would react if something were to happen. And it turns out to be true, something happened on that hilltop. Suddenly, the sky was covered with black clouds. The sky turned dark. The thick clouds in the sky revolved around the hilltop of Mount Bugel. A strong wind whirled, like a tornado would sweep the place.


    Jamil is aware of the event, which will certainly be the same as events that once occurred.  It must have happened again, when the jade bracelet worn by Melian entered the bongpai stone hole. So Jamil asked Melian to hold on to the bongpai stone. Of course, so that he is not swept by the strong wind that spins.


    Likewise, Irul who had never known the event, he was asked to be vigilant and hold strong, so as not to be carried away by the strong wind that suddenly came crashing on the top of the hill.


    "Awas ...!! Be careful .... Strong handle, do not get swayed by the wind ...! Don't get carried away by the storm .... Don't get thrown ..... Strong handle ...! Let's get closer, hold each other. Let us not fall .... Let us not be carried away by this whirling wind .... If you want to know, this is what happened when Melian was a baby, when Melian was brought by Grandma Amak here ..." so Jamil said to Irul and Juminem.


    "Yes Kang .... I remember exactly .... At that time I had passed out, Kang ..." said Juminem who also still remembers the events about twenty-three years ago.


    "What's going to happen, sir?" ask Iru who would like to know the events that will happen next.


    "Yes .... Soon the bongpai will rise into the air, lifted up by the whirlwind and supernatural forces .... Later from inside the grave ground it will come out a coffin made of very large jade, a very magnificent and very beautiful chest .... You just pay attention, but don't forget to hold on to the strong .... This will happen strangely later, the people in the jade box will come out and meet Melian" said Jamil who still remembers the time of Grandma Amak.


    And it is true what Jamil said. A moment later the tornado's wind whirled very strongly, even accompanied by thunderous thunder that struck. Then, whether there was any magical power from nowhere, the tornado wind could lift a bongpai made from an enormous and heavy stone. Yes, the bongpai was instantly lifted up. And suddenly, from under the bongpai appeared a chest made of shiny green jade, which was very beautiful. The jade box was open. Two men came out of the box. The one man in the clothes seemed to be royal greatness. While the other is a woman who also wears traditional clothing typical of the ancient Chinese people.


    Jamil remembers exactly, the woman was Grandma Amak. While the man is the man who is considered as the father of Grandma Amak. The two people were standing right in front of Melian. Then the man in noble clothes, his hand stretched out to hold Melian's shoulder.


    "Good girl .... This is where your great-grandfather lives .... You are the heir to Kampung Naga, who once managed to provide prosperity. You are the heir to the dragon-carved jade bracelet, which has full power as the leader of virtue, the ruler of truth, the defender of justice. Wear the dragon carved jade bracelet well. What you have is a symbol of wisdom, lest others who are evil will destroy the order of life. Do not hesitate to spread kindness, do not worry in upholding the truth. All retainers, loyal soldiers of my followers will protect you. Do good for the truth ..." so the thunderous voice spoken by the man dressed in noble clothes.


    Then, the two men returned to the chest made of jade. And at that moment, the chest was back into the ground, along with the descent of the bongpai that returned to normal.


    The wind stopped moving. The black clouds turned blue again. The sound of lightning striking, has changed into a soothing bird chirping. Jamil approached Melian. So did Juminem, who immediately hugged his daughter. Not to be left behind, Irul also took hold of Melian's hand. They left the top of the hill, of course with a relieved feeling.
