Song of Earth Wengker
Meet Ki Suro Tani


In the middle of the field was a small hut. Behind the hut was a used stove for cooking. Because there are some household furniture.


Strangely again in the hut the wall is only middle to bottom made of bamboo that is woven. While the middle to the top is left open. If anyone is in it, they can see it.


And it looks very if the hut is currently no occupants. Blue and Sulasna robes looked right from the left, then paced around the location of the hut but there was no one.


"It looks like this hut is empty, Sulasna," Nyai Selayar said, dressed as the Blue-cloak Swordsman.


Sulasna just nodded her head. "I've also been searching here and there, around this hut. Nor did it appear there were any people," he added.


Nyai Selayar then invited Sulasna to leave the hut. Just now the two Swordsmen stepped a few steps, from a distance there were two people walking on the edge of the river. The two ran on the rice field so that two people who walked did not go missing.


Up near the person on the way, both approached the person. The two men immediately stopped their steps.


"Sorry, Father. Can I ask you?" ask the Blue-cloak Swordsman.


"Please, Nyai. What does Nyai want to ask," said one of the two people.


"Sorry, this vast field and that shack, does anyone have any?" ask the Blue-cloak Swordsman.


"Oh that. It belongs to Mbah Suro. But the guy's weird. Sometimes the hut just lives. The land is sometimes just in a hoe without planting anything" replied the person


Hearing the answers from the two men, Sulasna and the Blue-cloak Swordsman looked delighted.


"His brother is a traveler and wants to stay in the hut or want to find land to cultivate?" ask the other one.


"We are travelers and want to rest in that hut" Sulasna said.


"If you just take a break, just take a break. After all Mbah Suro usually if it has come out like this, he can go home later in the afternoon if he does not even go home. The farmers here often use their huts for rest. Mbah Suro is also okay. It even looks happy" said the two farmers.


Sulasna and the Blue-cloak Swordsman, thanked him for the testimony of the two farmers who seemed to be leaving soon.


Sulasna and his mother, the Swordsman Blue Cloak or Nyai Selayar then headed to Mbah Suro Hut. Both are convinced that Mbah Suro who was said to be strange by the farmer was Ki Suro Tani, who was one of the guards of Warok science.


"We wait outside the hut only, "said the Blue-cloak Swordsman.


"Yes, Mbok," Sulasna replied.


The two waited outside the hut in the field. Although actually in the hut made with bamboo floors and poles also from bamboo with a rather large size, not blocked with the room, but they did not dare to enter the hut.


Because in the level of knowledge they have it includes a form of insolence in the elderly.

The sun is slowly heading towards the contest at the tip of the kulon. The twilight wind began to hit the bodies of the Blue-cloak Swordsman and Sulasna. Both bodies felt a little cold. While from the end of the field a thin old man with gray hair walked towards the hut. Swordsman of Blue Cloak and Sulasna grew convinced that the hut really belonged to Ki Suro Tani.


"Hehehe, it's been a while?" asked the man, as he invited the two to enter his hut.


"Again, Ki," said Sulasna, after arranging his seat on the floor made of bamboo that was broken three fingers wide.


"Hehehe, hehehe, hehe, I'm not arrogant. But I don't know yet. My name is Mbah Suro, I am a farmer of this farm. Who are you guys and where are you going to my family?" said the old man who is none other than Mbah Suro.


Sulasna looked at his Symbok and coded for his Symbok to answer a question from Mbah Suro.


"Sorry, Ki. Introduce My name Nyai Selayar and This is my son Sulasna. We are travelers from Alas Toya Marta. We mean also to meet Ki Suro," explained the Blue-cloak Swordsman.


Mbah Suro stared intently at the two guests. His gaze was then directed at Sulasna. I don't know what he saw, he was endlessly staring at Sulasna like something was being read.


"You can tell that my place is here. Did Pandan Sari tell you?" mbah Suro.


"We are only told to go down the river, and later when we meet people who have characteristics like Aki, yes that's what we are looking for. But when we see fields and huts with no plants other than wood, we suspect this place" explained Nyai Selayar.


"Hehehe, yes already, then," Ki Suro replied with a chuckling chuckle.


"Indeed you are sensitive if asked to look, hahaha, hahaha," Ki Suro laughed out loud, greeted by a smile from both of them.


Ki Suro or Mbah Suro is a farmer who keeps the knowledge of Warok in the fourth stage. Because he is a farmer and has never been seen in the peasant jungle, he is called Ki Suro Tani or Mbah Suro Tani.


In everyday life, also never revealed himself that he has Kanuragan science and kasantuan science. Only the Peduhan people think Mbah Suro is a strange person.


How not strange, Although Mbah Suro fields can be said to be extensive, but the plants planted are the majority of annuals. There are crops, but not much. And that is also when the harvest season, the harvest is much given to the people of Padukuhan.


When harvesting a tree kettle for example, if it is not still raw, it sows or boil it and when it is ripe, if it is still raw, he brought his crops to the people who worked in the fields or happened to pass beside his hut.


"Tomorrow you're helping me, huh?" mbah Suro said to both.


"Help what, Ki?" asked Sulasna and the Blue-cloak Swordsman almost simultaneously.


"Look at my lad, that field just finished I hoeed it. And this must be planted with the right plants for this land," said Mbah Suro.


He looked at Sulasna.


"What's it on the farm, Le?" ask Mbah Suro.


"Sorry, Eyang. I am less able to farm. So I do not understand what plants are suitable for land with such soil. But I only sendiko on the orders of Eyang," said Sulasna.


The discussion of the three of them ngalor ngidul with various stories and Senda joked. After midnight, the three fell asleep in the hut.
