"Where are the people who sell bogus ice..why don't there look one..?" shinta asked, holding her throat which felt dry.
"Yes.yes, when the kuta crossed this way there was one person selling on the side of the road under the tree." pointed Hadi on a leafy tree.
When they headed to Hamdan's house earlier, there seemed to be someone selling ice dawet there.
"Yes.. I also saw yank so I was drooling earlier." said Shinta confirmed.
"now still drooling what is not.? If not, we go back to Uncle Hamdan's house..? Later he is confused looking for us." said Hadi softly.
A moment a middle-aged man flashed from the north. Then Hadi tried to ask "Mas, may ask yes.. The ice pick under the tree where ya..?" ask Hadi politely.
The man looked confused. He scrunched his forehead.
"Mas and Mbak are not villagers here, huh..?" tanyanya.
"Yes Mas." replied Hadi innocently.
"There's no one selling dawet ice under the Mas tree.. It's just a Mas Illusion." replied the man.
"Illusi how is Ma..? My wife also saw it." replied Hadi trying to justify his words.
The man looked at the two.
"Please be careful Mas, the area here is still prone to mystical things, that is if you believe. If not already." the message, then while leaving.
Hadi shuddered to hear it. "Honey.. City go home yuuk.. Uncle Hamdan said we should stay at his house, don't wander around.." Hadi tried to remind Shinta.
But the feeling of wanting to drink ice was so strong, it could not be prevented. But she also did not want to argue with Hadi, her husband.
"Yes already.. We'll look for it later." Shinta replied relented.
As the two were about to get out of place, they saw a procession with a very beautiful gamelan sound, soft flowing pus syahdu. Luring anyone who hears it.
The motorcade was radiating from the south, precisely from the direction of the wrought shade tree where the dawet ice trader was agang.
Instantly both are captivated and bewitched. They want to watch the procession. Like a carnival on August 17 or during the celebration of another big day.
Like two boys who are in a scratch, they watch the motorcade.
It appears that a puppeteer and sinden and other participants carrying gamelan-typical tools followed him from the back of the semabri playing his instrument. Then Sinden sings softly with a melodious voice.
Behind the Sindens and their entourage, it appears that other residents are following merwka from behind. The adult men and children there are those who carry livestock, while the women who only use kemben typical clothes, carrying baskets of bamboo swings, are, holding it and placed on their waists with various household needs and other satur mayur.
Then the last participant they saw was the ice hawker they saw when they first passed by Uncle Hamdan's house.
All the participants looked pale and cold. They did not smile at all as the two threw smiles. Their eyes are straight ahead.
At that time Shijta jumped excited, when he saw the dawet ice trader.
"Yank.that's Yank's sword.." Shinta said with a feeling of excitement, without thinking long, Shinta pulled Hadi's arm to stop the ice merchant.
The two of them had unknowingly been dragged into the accompaniment of the accompaniment.
Instantly the atmosphere changed drastically.
When they entered the motorcade, the group looked towards a market that looked very crowded and frenzied. There they found all the food vendors and everything they needed.
The atmosphere looks like a traditional market, but it is located in the wilderness. The market is on the edge of a rocky road as big as a ball of feet as a street hardener.
There they used a barter system, or silver coins and other precious metals.
"Why is that weird, yank..? None of them are friendly to us." said Shinta confusedly and curiously.
"Yes yes.. They seem to be busy with themselves." Hadi replied confirming his wife's speech.
A moment Shinta saw the ice merchant dawet was on the edge of the stone road. "Yank.. That's the ice merchant, we go there yuk.." Invite Shinta with anxiety, while continuing to grip Hadi's wrist earlier.
Hadi was forced to follow Shinta, as it was forcibly withdrawn.
They have arrived before the puffer of the ice.
"Mas.. The ice message was 2 cups yes." said Shinta impatiently.
The merchant did not look at the two. But his hands deftly mix ice dawet order Shinta.
Hadi who noticed the movement of the trader's hand, immediately frowned in surprise.
While Shinta was looking at other traders who peddled various necessities and other trinkets.
A moment Hadi saw the fingers of the merchant only amounted to 2 segments only. Suddenly surprised and..
"Astaghfiralataglamb..!!" Hadi said reflexively in the middle of his entanglement.
As soon as the market atmosphere in the form of deserted, Hadi's speech made it seem as if all the activities were stopped.
They looked at Hadi and Shinta with displeased eyes.
Instantly Hadi and Shinta who were stared at by hundreds of eyes who looked at the two with a raining gaze instantly shrieked his courage.
The sound of gamelan also suddenly stopped, Sinden also did not hum anymore.
As the cold got into their bones, the two held on tight, not wanting to be separated by anything.
At that time the faces of the residents turned flat and flat without nose, lips and eyes.
Instantly Hadi increasingly tightened his grip on Shinta's fingers.
"Honey.. There seems to be something intangible with these people" said Hafi menciba mastering his consciousness.
"Yes yank.. I felt it." replied Shinta.
"Keep pondering, don't let your guard down." Hadi reminded.
Hafi remembered Ta'awudz. Then he read it.
"A'udzubillahiminas syaithannirazim.." Hadi said it over and over again, then whatever verse He remembered. Fortunately, his speech was not broken by chanting prayers before eating.
Hadi and Shinta tried to keep their consciousness in check and continued to pray for the protection of the Almighty.
Instantly came someone who looked like their leader. Using royal clothes that are inside the pedati car made of jepara carvings.
He opened the curtain that covered it. Then look at both.
"Kill them both out.. The words he spoke made the natural atmosphere here feel hot.!!" he said firmly and with anger.
Instantly 6 bodyguards who had been loyal under the cart immediately approached the two. Then he violently dragged the two and threw them out of their realms.
Seriate..
Author of dawn prayer first..
