The Adventure of the Kecapi
Chapter 57

This led Yauw Lie and the two young men to conclude that the red stick beggars were not the ones who liked to act on their strength as many other members of the society did.

The five beggars stepped forward without speaking at the east gate of the hamlet, they did not stop and walked on. It turned out that they were not heading to the Skull hill.

The three young men followed the beggar from behind, some distance away because they did not want to know that they were shadowing the beggar.

After exiting the gate and being on a deserted road, the five beggars started running. The three young people also walked over quickly, continuing to shadow them.

Before long they arrived at the edge of a small forest and from afar it appeared that two people were fighting. One was a forty-year-old man, tall and thin, dressed in white, and he had a sword.

His opponent was a beggar about fifty years old and he was armed with a red stick. It was clear that the one who was fighting was an anggauta beggar of red sticks against a man who was dressed in all Black and who had quite a high swordsmanship.

The fight was indeed balanced and crowded, but it seemed that the red-sticked beggar was starting to get pushed around by his opponent's swordplay.

"Are the five beggars trying to gang up on the Black Shirt?" liu Ceng asked softly.

"Hey, even if I don't know the Black Shirt, if he gets stabbed, I will definitely defend him!" liu Hong said.

"Sister Ceng and big brother Hong, I hope you guys are not in a hurry to act before we know the problem the reason they are fighting. Don't let us help wrongly" said Yauw Lie, who looked at the cousins one by one.

"Oh, that's right!' said Liu Ceng..

They approached and lurked from behind a large tree. The five red-stick beggars had now arrived near those who were competing, but the five of them were just standing by to watch the match and presumably would not intervene to help their comrades.

 The black-clothed man looked surprised when he saw the appearance of the five red stick beggars. He seemed to know very well that if the five men were to gang up on him, he would definitely be threatened for fighting this one alone, he was only able to insist after competing over fifty moves.

The stick from his red-colored opponent formed a swift and powerful red light scroll. And the black-clothed man jumped far back.

"Basic cheating. You guys are gonna gang up on me!" snapped the black-clothed man as he stretched his sword in front of his chest.

"We are not a society of people who cheat and like to play games!" exclaiming the black-clothed man while pointing his red staff.

"Excited man! If we did the shaking, do you think you're still alive!" shout out loud one

Among the five beggars who had just come.

"Well, now I'm posing a challenge on behalf of our two leaders. Tomorrow the day after sunrise, our leader will come to this place and challenge your leader. Let us see who is superior and who deserves the treasure, the head of the Black Skull Hill or the head of the White Skull Hill! If the day after tomorrow your leader doesn't show up, you're cowards!" exclaimed the man in black clothes who then jumped into the forest and fled.

"That shit shouldn't let us go!" exclaimed the beggar who was the opponent of the black-clothed man furiously and clenched his fists.

"There is no point Seperguruan Sister, did the chairman tell us not to take a hostile attitude with anyone who lives in these mountains. Oh right, how did the five of you come here and find out that we were competing?" ask the oldest beggar.

"One of our members told us, that's why we quickly followed here, and saw Brother Seperguruan was competing with the Black Shirt that bastard. Can you tell me why the brothers got into a fight and then got into a fight with that guy?" answer and ask one of the five beggars.

"That's right! Those who are shameless, those who do not abstain from committing crimes, accuse us instead! Even if our job is begging, stealing is a big obstacle for us. Everyone knows it too!" the other word. The six of them seemed to be furious and curious.

"We'd better report it to the chairman. He thinks we're afraid to face their challenges!" the other beggar.

At that moment, Yauw Lie and the two cousins who had originally been lurking, came out from their reconnaissance site.

As soon as three people appeared from behind the tree, the six members of the red stick beggar's assembly jumped in light movements and they were already standing in front of the three young men with red sticks ready in hand to attack.

"Huh, do you also want to find out because of us?" ask the oldest beggar with a look of suspicion.

"I'm sorry, we have absolutely no bad intentions. Just by chance we saw one of you fighting against the black-clothed man, so we didn't go out and hide behind a tree. After the man left, then we dared to come to you." reply Yauw Lie quickly went forward and raised both hands in front of the chest in honor and said softly.

"Who are these three of you and what do you mean, approaching and watching us?" ask the other beggar while furrowing his brows.

"We're interested to hear people accuse you of stealing heirlooms! Did you really steal the treasure?" asked Liu Hong who could not wait to see Yauw Lie's attitude so respectfully towards the six beggars.

 "Sister Hong......!" reprimanded Liu Ceng a little annoyed.

 "Young master, do you also mean to insult us?" ask the oldest beggar in a stiff voice.

"Eh! Who insulted who? I'm just asking, what's wrong with people asking!" liu Hong snapped as he widened his eyes and turned his back,

Hearing this, the beggars of the red wand wavered, unable to speak. Yauw Lie who saw that Liu Hong's attitude and speech 4 could ignite anger and hostility, therefore Yauw Lie immediately saluted the six beggars.

"Hope the Sixth Uncle likes to forgive us. In fact, the three of us were very interested in hearing the black-clothed person talk about treasure because the three of us were just about to investigate, who the treasure thief was. For our investigation this is why we want to go to the head of the red stick association to ask for directions." explained Yauw Lie as he jutted.

Yauw Lie's words, of course, have calmed the hearts of the beggars. .
