River Suburbs Village
Back to Sarto Village

Ustad Saleh was silent for a moment hearing Subhan's question. After a long sigh, Ustad Saleh then said

"Son, you'll know who I am after we get out of this village" I'm a human being just like you, but I'm a little different than all of you" he said.

Sarto who was originally a neighbor of Ustad Saleh was surprised at that time. For Sarto, Ustad Saleh is no stranger to him. But this time, Ustad Saleh felt foreign to him after traveling to the village of meriang bay.

"Ustad, what do you mean ustad? Different from all of us?" It looks like during the trip to Subhan village, Ustad Saleh does look different than usual" said Sarto honestly.

"Already, now we have to get out of this village" My time is not much" This well we have to cover with the ground and in the grave" Sarto please bring me a lot of land, in order to be able to close this well and not become a disease of the community in the future" said Ustad Saleh gave an explanation

Sarto immediately took the land by hoeing it, assisted by Subhan's father who had just come to the place where Subhan, Sarto and Ustad Saleh were located.

They worked together to hoe the land until they finally got enough land. The land was used to close the well according to Saleh's request.

"Well, it's done" Now this well can not be used anymore to throw the pesugihan tumbal done by Sutikno's father" said Ustad Saleh a little relieved.

However, a strange thing happened after they managed to seal the well with the ground. There was a strange scream inside the well and it made Subhan surprised.

"Sir, did you hear a heartbreaking scream from the ground?" subhan asked Sarto, or Ustad Saleh.

"I didn't hear it Subhan, maybe your hallucinations" Sarto told Subhan.

"Oh, yes, " replied Subhan.

"Well, what's up?" subhan asked ustad Saleh who was in a state of falling

"It's okay son" Now we should get out of this village" We don't have much time" said Ustad Saleh.

"Alright ustad, let's justad" asked Subhan.

"Father, mother, let's go" I saw the mountain of merapi in the village let out small explosions" Usually, my grandmother always told me to hide in the house if there was a small explosion" I can't play with Sutikno" Unless it's safe, I can play again" Subhan told Saleh and Sarto.

They all went to the edge of the haunted river where Subhan and Sutikno first crossed the river.

The river atmosphere is very tense. When Subhan and Sarto were about to board a rental boat that was already on the riverbank, Subhan accidentally touched the hands of Ustad Saleh. His hands look like Saleh feels cold, not as warm as usual.

"Ustad, are you sick?" ask Subhan curiously

"No Subhan, I'm fine" the important thing is we all survived when we returned to the other side of the village" Your mother's father has returned to the village and met your grandparents" They must be calm in nature" Ustad Saleh told Subhan

"It's ustad" replied Subhan short.

They all finally boarded the boat sailing across the haunted river. There was no other choice for them other than the river as a connecting road to go home because Subhan Village had been surrounded by the haunted river, so whatever happens they have to pass the river to return to the village where Sarto and Ustad Saleh live.
