The Ancestral Country
Venture
Begawan Wanayasa was followed by students of Padepokan Bukit Penampihan approaching Panji Watugunung and his group. Walking slowly, the old pandita continued to walk closer to them.
"Wanayasa from Penampihan Hill thanks for the help of young warriors" said the old pandita while bowing respectfully to the Watugunung Panji followed by all the remaining disciples of Padepokan Bukit Penampihan.
Begawan Wanayasa who had originally almost given up and thought the Padepokan Bukit Penemampihan would be destroyed that day, turned out to be the party who survived after being helped by Panji Watugunung and his three concubines, he was actually the one who survived, warigalit and Ratri.
"Resi Begawan Wanayasa not so. Our fellow white flow warriors are obliged to help each other", Panji Watugunung immediately rushed to Begawan Wanayasa. Pandita was smiling.
"Let me thank the young swordsman, even if it's a meaningless banquet. Come with us to the Hill of Depletion", ask the old pandita with respect. The Watugunung banner immediately followed the old pandita's steps while his three concubines and Warigalit and Ratri returned to the edge of the small forest to retrieve their horse.
Meanwhile, the 6 male disciples of the Hill of Depopulation buried the corpse of their dead brother that day, and burned the corpse of the disciple Padepokan Goa Demon so as not to become a den of disease.
The Watugunung banner sits cross-legged on the porch of the Begawan Wanayasa residence. The sepuh Pandita looked so amazed at the great and humble soul of this young swordsman.
"Young man, if you didn't hear me wrong, your name was Watugunung, right?".
"True Resi Begawan, my name is Panji Watugunung from Padepokan Padas Putih on the slopes of Mount Penanggungan" replied Watugunung politely.
Hmmmm
"Who is your teacher?" asked Begawan Wanayasa later.
"I, Kakang Warigalit, Dinda Pitaloka and Sekar Mayang were students of Mpu Sakri, Resi Begawan. Does Resi Begawan know our teacher?", Watugunung investigated.
"Hehehehe, I can't believe it. Today the Penampihan Hill is still there because of the help of Kakang Sakri's students.
True young swordsman, your teacher and I were foster brothers when we were young.
Actually I recognized your Fire God Ajian. That's Kakang Sakri's mainstay when nicknamed the Fire Hand of the White Padas first", Begawan Wanayasa explained everything.
As they chatted warmly, Warigalit, Ratri and the three concubines of Watugunung Panji reached the residence of Begawan Wanayasa with a student.
"Actually what brings you all this way here, Nakmas Watugunung?", asked Begawan Wanayasa.
"Sorry Resi Begawan, actually we are messengers from the Daha palace. Our task is to deliver the letter to the Duchy of Kurawan", Panji Watugunung explains the purpose of his arrival.
Hmmmm
"Rupanya so. Kurawan is not well. The Duke of Wangsakerta was ill, while the government was run by the Dukes of Wangsatmaja Son was assisted by Patih Rakeh Paksi.
Be careful on the way later, Nakmas Watugunung", said Begawan Wanayasa who immediately responded to the nod of the head of the Watugunung Panji and all his followers.
That night they rested at the Hill Padepokan Penemampihan.
In the morning before arriving, the sound of the roosters was earthy. Warm sunlight drives away the cold nights that cause the universe.
After honoring Begawan Wanayasa, Panji Watugunung, the three concubines, Warigalit and Ratri immediately jumped on their horses and drove his horse darting westward towards the Duchy of Kurawan.
Kurawan is the old territory of Kahuripan. The capital of the Duchy of Kurawan used to be the former capital of the old Kahuripan, Wuwatan. As the former capital of the kingdom, the city still looks crowded with traders and travelers from various regions.
The Panji Watugunung entourage entered Wuwatan city as the day started towards the afternoon. After showing Chandrakapala's badge to the guards of the Kurawan Duchy's palace gate, they were among those who entered to meet the House of Majors as temporary power holders in the Kurawan Princess.
The Wangsatmaja frowned after reading the letter from the Daha King.
"I apologize if I sassy Gusti Pangeran, if I may know what is the contents of the letter from King Panjalu Gusti Pangeran?", asked Rakeh Paksi as Patih Kurawan.
"King Daha asks us to send 500 selected soldiers and groceries for a month to the soldiers we sent Uncle Patih. This is a big decision, Father Duke himself must also be confused to determine the answer", said Wangsatmaja.
"Sentus of Daha, you rest first. I need to talk to Uncle Patih and the duchy's retainer.
Sentinel,
Take them to the guest ward".
Two guards immediately saluted the House and withdrew from the Kurawan's sonhood. They drove the Watugunung Panji and his entourage to the guest rest ward.
That night they rested in the guest rest ward in the Duchy of Kurawan. But in a panic in the palace of the Duchy of Kurawan.
"Guard, what's the problem? Why is everyone panicking?", asked Panji Watugunung to the guard who ran down the porch hallway of the resting ward.
"Sorry envoy, Gusti Adipati Wangsakerta convulsed. All the palace healers were ordered to go there", the guard saluted and immediately rushed out.
Panji Watugunung immediately looked at Dewi Srimpi who was next to her.
"Dream, you know the science of medicine, right?".
Dewi Srimpi nodded in understanding.
"How about we look there??", take Panji Watugunung while standing.
"Come Denmas".
The two of them immediately rushed towards Duke Wangsakerta's private room.
Inside Duke Wangsakerta's private room, a middle-aged man was lying with a pale face. Around his House the crown prince was sitting anxiously looking at the Duke of Kurawan.
The three palace healers of the Kurawan Duchy were already sitting in the corner of the room with their heads down. They could not cure the Duke's illness. The house looked furiously at them.
Panji Watugunung and Dewi Srimpi who are present can only see from the outside because the gate enters in the guard. Dozens of people crowded in front of the archway. In addition to the people in the palace, it is forbidden to enter.
A court physician who was the last physician ran into the Duke of Wangsakerta's private room. The guard immediately opened the way for the physician.
"Quick check on my father", cried the Wangsatmaja as the healer entered the room.
The court physician immediately approached the Duke. Wangsakerta's pulse is irregular, her breathing is fast. All of his abilities were unleashed but there was not the slightest change.
"How?", the house could not wait for an answer from the court physician.
The middle-aged man just shook his head. He's capitulating.
"Is there nothing we can do??", the House looked at the four court physicians. All down.
"Guard, announce the contest to the whole of the Duchy of Kurawan.
Whoever can heal my father, I will give you a great gift" the House said. His voice rang out beyond the walls of the Duke's private room. A guard of the private room immediately ran out.
The words of the Watugunung Panji made the guard frown. But there's no harm in trying, who knows, to succeed, the guard thought.
"Let's go inside".
The banner of Watugunung and Dewi Srimpi immediately rushed to follow the guard's steps towards the Duke of Wangsakerta's bedroom.
"Mustan of Daha,
What is it here?", asked Wangsatmaja saw Panji Watugunung and Dewi Srimpi go inside.
"Although Gusti Pangeran, they wanted to try to treat Gusti Adipati", the gatekeeper performed prayers.
The face of Wangsatmaja instantly became bright. Success or no one wants to treat, at least give life expectancy to the Duke.
Panji Watugunung and Dewi Srimpi immediately saluted the House and approached Duke Wangsakerta on his bed.
"Denmas, it looks like she's in people's poison" whispered Dewi Srimpi seeing the small marks on Duke Kurawan's body.
"You can treat her?", asked Panji Watugunung looking towards Dewi Srimpi.
"Can Denmas" answered Dewi Srimpi confidently.
"Do it", Panji Watugunung nodded slowly.
Slowly, the flickering hand of Goddess Srimpi moved to suppress the heart of Wangsakerta. Then he channeled his energy in his.
Wangsakerta's mouth immediately opened. Dewi Srimpi immediately reached into her pocket, taking out a green colored medicine. He quickly put the medicine into Wangsakerta's mouth.
Not long after, Wangsakerta's body shook. Patugunung Panji immediately sat the body of the Duke of Kurawan.
Later then..
Huoooggghhh
Wangsakerta vomited black blood a sign of poisoning. Dewi Srimpi immediately grabbed a clay pitcher next to the bed to accommodate the vomit. Then took a vein in the body of Duke Kurawan and moved to massage the Duke's back with his inner strength.
Duke Wangsakerta continuously vomited black blood. The port of Watugunung that moved to hold the kendil.
The House looked towards them with astonished gazes.
After nearly 20 vomits, Dewi Srimpi immediately released her tootokan. Then calmly put the Duke of Kurawan back to sleep.
Not long after, Wangsakerta opened her eyes. His old face still looked pale despite not being as white as before. The house immediately rushed to his father.
"Kanjeng Romo, Kanjeng Romo is conscious" said Wangsaatmaja happily.
Wangsakerta smiled faintly.
The House turned its eyes to the Patugunung Panji and Dewi Srimpi.
"Thank you for the help, Envoy Daha..
Without you guys, I don't know what's going to happen", the House is moved.
"We are only helping as much as Gusti Prince can, the end result remains on Sang Hyang Tunggal. It just so happened that we were the way for the healing of Gusti Adipati", the banner of Watugunung was low.
The people looked at them with admiration. They are still humble and the palace healer who has been a trust for decades to the palace of the Duchy of Kurawan can not do anything.
"You're too low. You guys are great people. If you can tell, what's my dad really sick?".
Panji Watugunung and Dewi Srimpi looked at each other for a moment, then Dewi Srimpi with a soft blessing, and then,
"The Duke's mistress is not sick, either,
He's in people's poison"
