Jaga Saksena Pendekar Peniup Bledeg
Chapters 2. After Exiting the Island

"Ghhhrr ...!"

'Whatever it is, I better avoid it!'

The boy turned west, intending to walk a hundred steps before heading back north.

However, suddenly from behind the bush _where the sound of growling comes _ sticking out a large toothed and sharp-nailed savage animal that immediately jumped up high to pounce.

"Babaii ...!"

Keep Saksena running fast. The bush that grows among the sometimes thorny trees he no longer ignores.

Of course the actual animal type tiger _because it has a distinctive striped color in its fur_ it does not want to take off its prey just like that immediately chasing.

The chase happens. Amazingly the boy was able to speed quickly, infiltrate the dense vegetation so that the tiger was not able to touch it.

Keep running, the boy forgets the direction. Because all he has in mind now is how to escape the prey animal.

"Hosh ...! Hosh ...!"

The boy's breathing began to hunt.

'I trained my body for something like this! But I seem to be working less! I have to be able to!' batin Jaga Saksena pumps spirit and energy.

I don't know how long time has passed. I don't know how far it's traveled.

The boy's clothes have been torn here and there. Only worn clothes that have not changed for so long are of course weathered to age.

Even the boy's foot bandage made of snake skin, not strong enough to withstand excessive friction when running fast.

Blood from the wound due to the spines of plants that spread between the trees began to fill all over Jaga Saksena's body.

'The pig kept chasing me! A pig or a cat?! Ah care!'

Jaga Saksena has indeed been taught the names of animals. It's just because I never saw it and forgot. Because on a small island that he has been living with byung, large animals that there are most snakes.

In the run until Jaga Saksena in a place slightly clean from shrubs because the soil in the area is rocky.

That's when, up ahead, Jaga Saksena saw a fairly large tree growing on its side.

Not thinking long, the boy ran towards the tree and climbed it by running until when it got higher, the boy had to drop himself hugging the tree trunk.

At the same time when Jaga Saksena hugged the tree, the chasing tiger reached the base of the tree. And it turns out, it was easy for the king of the jungle to climb.

'You won't be able to chase after me!'

Keep Saksena grinning and climbing onto a small, tall branch that grows straight up.

Sure enough, when he reached the tree branch where Jaga Saksena climbed, the king of the jungle had to growl furiously because he could not climb the small branch.

"Please chase me if you can!" shout Keep Saksena by first regulating her breathing that ngosannya. Then, "hahahaha!" he laughed satisfied because he managed to defeat the beast.

The king of the jungle looked up, while making a furious growl, staring at the grudge on his little prey as if to say,

"Please wait for my vengeance. I'll rip your body apart before I put it in my stomach!!"

"Easy! Just go there! Find another prey that tastes better. My chin is bitter!"

Keep Saksena shouting while wagging the right hand that holds the stone axe.

Instead of leaving, the king of the jungle humbled his ass, and,

"Whoi whoi! Why are you sitting!! Ah you fucking pig!"

Keep Saksena did not take into account that the pursuer could have been waiting for her.

'Forced me to throw my axe! This is my only hope!'

Taking a deep breath, then exhaling slowly, Jaga Saksena gathered the remnants of energy. Then he positioned himself as best he could to aim at the head of the jungle king who occasionally looked up.

Convincing yourself must have worked, Keep Saksena shouting,

"Go you pig!"

Keep Saksena holding the body with two legs and one left hand, then throw the stone axe forcefully using the right hand down.

At the same time because of Jaga's shout, the tiger looked up. And ....

Crack it! Exactly, the sharp part of the axe struck right at the base of the tiger's nose. Although not stuck, the wound caused is quite deep.

The jungle king rose from his seat, growling loudly, making the wounds suffered bleed profusely.

Panicked to see his own blood, the big tiger came down and left.

"Hufffttt ...."

Breathing in relief, Keep Saksena down slowly. Arriving at the sloping tree, the boy checked the surroundings. Make sure the beast pursuer doesn't hide behind something down there. Find out where the ax fell.

'There it seems.'

The axe fell far enough away, probably because it bounced off after hitting the tiger's head.

'I should go down now and find a safe place to treat my injuries!'

***

"Ohh!!"

Keep Saksena who has been on top of a large tree high branches middle to anoint his wound with leaves that he has destroyed by chewing it. A treatment taught byung.

The worst wound is on the right leg. The leather mats that bandaged the legs were torn large. Maybe because it was hit by a sharp stone when Jaga Saksena ran away.

All the wounds had been bandaged, now the boy was watching around.

"Where did I run? I'm not going west!" say Jaga Saksena while staring at the glare of the sun that began to be orange on the western horizon.

'Come on, tomorrow I will continue north. I'd better rest now.'

Working hard all day _from digging burrows to running from the tiger chase_ makes the body of the 10-year-old boy feel tired. Not to mention the stomach that started singing asked to be filled.

Keep Saksena open the pouch of snake skin that she sashes on her back.

'My smoke fish supply is only five. I'd better eat it in the morning. For now I will sleep to hold hunger.'

Keep Saksena close her snake skin bag, stop taking the smoked fish.

During on the small island, Jaga Saksena and byung daily food is fish that can be from the big river around. Especially at the confluence of the river. Fish is so big there.

The fish taken are then preserved by smoking.

Fish that have been smoked are quite durable, up to a full moon.

When Byung starts to get sick, shivering to death, Jaga Saksena does not have time to find fish. All day and night the boy waited for him. So that the food supply only a few fish left.

Fish that are not too big, only as big as the arms of children aged 6 years.

The boy who had closed his eyes while sitting leaning against the big tree was unaware. An animal _as big as a betel tree, along the four spears_ that wrapped around the tree tree tree was watching him from up there.
