Swordsman Without Friends
The uninvited guest.
In the western part of the island of Java there are quite a lot of mountains, one of which is Ciremai mountain which is located in the Kuningan duchy. if you want to get there through the border of central Java may take almost a day a night riding trip.
Mount Ciremai is one of the highest mountains in the land area of Pasundan. according to the story there are some people who reportedly had become followers and students of Sunan Gunung Jati who was one of the Wali Songo or nine guardians of the spread of Islam on Java, Java, who inhabit the east foot of the mountain.
Maybe they intend to spread a new belief called Islam in the area.There are also some residents around the mountain who are interested in religious knowledge also studied there. although there are still very many adherents of other beliefs around Mount Ciremai, but the relationship between them is still well established and mutual respect.
On the western slopes of the mountain more than ten years ago stood a silat padepokan named 'Lutung Ciremai'. The founder and chairman is an old husband and wife who is known by the nickname 'Raja and Ratu Lutung Sakti'. is so called because the state of the body of both are overgrown with white feathers similar to lutung monkeys.
Although the sky is still dark but the night time has passed the end, the sound of the crowing of the jungle chicken signifies the day will change in the morning. in one of the places on the west slope of Ciremai mountain there are rows of wooden buildings and bamboo slats that are quite wide. if calculated there are at least eight medium-sized house buildings and another one that is larger and rather tall.
Rows of the house building was in a grassy field and only fenced bamboo bars as tall as the heads of adults around it, with a gate archway from a wooden board at the front of the fence. if viewed from afar this place looks like a small village.
But when viewed from a close main after reading the writing above the wooden gate, the, new people will understand that the place is a silat padepokan which is quite famous among the peach forest, especially in the western region. because that is where the silat padepokan Lutung Ciremai is located.
Precisely when approaching that place people will also see something strange and creepy scenery that is plastered in the middle of the silat college courtyard. although not included in the ten largest silat schools of white flow but Lutung Ciremai also quite have a big name.
At least now the number of students who are studying there is more than a hundred people, not including dozens of former students who have graduated and are looking for experience in the outside world while practicing the knowledge they have mastered.
But now more than half of the students have been sprawled in a shower of blood on the ground.dozens of people groan in pain with injured bodies and broken bones, dozens more have even been lying silent without life.
There are still forty students of the Lutung Ciremai silat college who still survive although some of them are also injured. with hands armed with a thin blade shaped slightly curved they stared with vengeance anger mixed with horror and fear of the five people who stood there. Initially the migrants were seven people. but two of them have been successfully finished by their chairman.
Even though in the middle of the disciples there were also two of their leaders as well as three main disciples who had high martial skills, but the opponents they were facing right now were even more knowledgeable. whether the five people came from nowhere, which clearly had not been until the time of the rice more than half of their friends were made to perish.
Even when the two college leaders of the 'King and Queen Lutung Sakti' intervened assisted by three main students who would become leaders of the future, they were still unable to finish off the opponent. but at least two of them have been killed in the hands of those chiefs.
The morning air felt so bone-chilling.the cold wind blowing carried the smell of blood.under the light of several torch flames held in the hands of some of the students of Lutung Ciremai college who were still besieging, under the light of some torch flames, you can see the appearance of the five human figures.
The one who stood at the left was a twenty-five year old young man who had a handsome face but his eyes seemed to shine full of arrogance and perverted smile. dressed in a clean white robe with long, misty hair, the mark was smeared with oil. What was interesting was that the young man was clasped in a long flute made of gold.
During this time there have been many white flow figures and the royal party who tried to stop him but the young man who confidently wrestled himself as the 'Handson of the Golden Distilled Sukma' this even killed all his opponents.
Under these circumstances, it would not be wrong if anyone dared to place the savage youth in the ranks of ten young fighters the strongest newcomers replaced the 'Pair of Angel's Chakra' who was killed when a major event occurred in the mountains of Semeru the other day.
Beside the perverted young man were seen two skinny old men dressed in rumbrong clothes patched and carrying an iron pot containing copper coins. hit by the torch light on the face of these two people who were as pale as a corpse it looks spooky full of murderous air.
Never underestimate the two people who resemble a destitute kingpin because 'Pair Beggar Bangkai' is one of the big names of black groups who have long occupied the southeast region of the land of Pasundan. reportedly they have just established a silat association called the Beggar's 'Petaka Cough.!'
King Ratu Lutung Sakti momentarily exchanged lyrics, although very famous but the three people were not the most they worried about. because the fourth person standing at the front was the most dangerous. there stood a long-haired grandmother so white that she touched her knees.
The grandmother's left hand held a small, reddish-copper incense stick filled with hot charcoal and was struck by several burning red incense sticks on top of it and spread the sickening smell of frankincense.
The grandmother's face was not visible because it was covered with long gray hair.His thin, wrinkled right hand stayed thin skin wrapping the bone several times gently wagging the hot, glowing smoke until it spread in all directions. seeing the incense smoke spread, the two leaders of the silat school Lutung Ciremai immediately ordered all his students to stay away.
But unfortunately there is still a late move. suddenly three students similarly delicated and then sprawled on the ground. After cornered his third body bulging up to finally erupt live clumps of black liquid and bone rotten flesh blackened.!
''Old bastard named Nyai 'Dupa Tumbal'., whatever the stakes today you are with your four friends we will make a terrible death on this Ciremai mountain.!'' gertak Ratu Lutung Sakti was violent. he almost stormed the fire if only her husband did not rush to prevent it.
''My wife calmed down first., the five of them must be able to do this place, but I wonder why they all come to night without being invited just to make a cursed massacre on our beach.?'' whispered the King of Lutung Sakti. while the tip of his eyes glanced at the last person standing somewhat apart from the other four.
She was a young girl who might be only eight or nineteen years old who had always looked down until she could not see her face. dressed in tight black and thin to the slim and beautiful curves of her body was reflected by the light of a torch. The girl's back was emblazoned with a leather bundle that was also black and bound to a chain at the end. among the five people, this strange girl who had not been seen intervening.
If a man feels passionate to see the shape of the beautiful body, then his lust will immediately disappear alternating feelings of fear when this girl in black raises her head, it is because her face is far from beautiful. a thin-skinned face was almost translucent until the bones on his face were seen looming. ''Dii., she., she is the 'Skull-Faced Girl.!'' hiss King and Queen Lutung Sakti almost simultaneously.
