The Fighter
Chapter 333 All Is Late
Without having time to say goodbye to the family in Trah Bhirawa, Lindhuaji and Larasati rushed to go to Perguruan Gunung Jambu. They do not want to waste time, without rest continue to drive the horse to go to the college. In more than a week of travel, they finally managed to see the arrival gate of the campus boundary of Mount Jambu.
"Nimas.., it seems there has been chaos in this college. Look.., not usually the front of the poranda college. However, Dhimas Wisanggeni did not tell anything about the events that had befallen the college. It looks like the poison that was inside Nimas Maharani's body, was related to this incident." Lindhu Aji stopped her horse, then pointed to some damage that was still clearly visible around the college.
"Yes, we'll find out soon enough.." Larasati responded to her husband's words.
Just as they were about to get off the horse, there were three disciples running towards them. Like the one who suspected the arrival of Larasati and Lindhu aji, the three disciples looked at the two with sharp eyes. Seemed one of their hands, hidden behind his back, as if preparing an attack and keeping watch.
"Ki Sanak.., please stop for a moment. We are required to check on everyone who will enter the college area." one of the students invited Lindhu Aji to speak.
The man who appeared to this college because of the invitation from his sister Wisanggeni smiled, and looked at his wife Larasati. But realizing that the three students had never met the two of them, Lindhu Aji finally understood his actions. The couple immediately jumped down from the horse they were riding.
"Where is the destination of Ki Sanak both.., because for Mount Jambu college for now, and some time in the future has not been able to receive visits from any party. So.., I apologize if we intercepted Ki Sanak's journey both.." with a smooth and polite speech, Wisanggeni's students explained the matter, they intercepted the two men.
"Hmmm.., whether this palm leaf can give permission for the two of us to enter the inner padhepokan." with a smile, Lindhu Aji handed the palm leaf Wisanggeni sent to the college student.
The three disciples looked at each other, then ventured to open the leaf spout. Once they recognized the scratches of their teacher Wisanggeni's hand, the three disciples turned deathly pale.
"Ki Sanak.., pardon our blindness we could not recognize the close brother of our teacher Wisanggeni. Please let go of the reins, we'll tether these horses." fearfully, the three disciples asked for the control ropes of the two horses carrying Larasati and Lindhu Aji.
"Calm down, you two are innocent. We understand the actions of both of you to keep what your teacher has ordered. Give care to our horses, a week more have not rested. Just get us here, we will go to the padhepokan alone, "not bothering to come, Lindhu Aji asked the three students to stop to deliver it.
"Well, thank you Ki Sanak.." The three male students of the college, immediately led the two horses that Larasati and Lindhu Aji brought.
"Let Nimas, hold on to me. I'll take you to the padhepokan." Lindhu Aji held Larasati's hand. Then the two jumped up, and left the place simultaneously.

In padhepokan
Unwilling to rest, Larasati and Lindhu Aji headed straight for the Maharani's resting place. Wisanggeni was in the senthong, looking at his second wife Maharani who was closing his eyes. Seeing the door opened from the outside, Wisanggeni raised his face upwards. A smile appeared on his lips, seeing the arrival of his second brother and his wife.
Lindhu Aji raised her hand up, gesturing for Wisanggeni to ignore. Larasati immediately lowered her body, the woman sat beside the Maharani. One hand of Larasati held the wrists of the Maharani, and the other was above the woman's forehead.
Visible face of the pale Larasati, the woman sighed then looked towards Wisanggeni.
"It's too late Dhimas. The poison that resides in the body of Nimas Maharani, is a poison that has not been found the antidote. From where Nimas Maharani got it, there are only two options that can be obtained Nimas Maharani at this time." said Larasati slowly, and the corner of his eyes again glanced at the rolled woman with a concerned look.
Larasati made a blood-stained motion near the neck, and in the heart of the Maharani. Wisanggeni saw the handling without blinking. As a compounder of herbal medicines, so far the man has not tried to make an antidote to the poison. Though this time, Wisanggeni felt how desperate the medicine to deal with the poison in the Maharani's body.
In addition, this man also benefited from the policy decided by the King of Logandheng kingdom, to deal with the dispute further. Although Patih Wirosobo still had a sense of vengeance for the killing of his son Senopati Wiroyudho, but with that decision in place, Patih could not go any further. Finally, while holding the grudge and pain, Patih Wiroyudho temporarily held back his feelings.
"Why did it become like this Dhimas.., what exactly happened to this college?" Lindhu Aji patted her sister's back.
Wisanggeni stood up then stepped out followed by Lindhu Aji. From the opposite direction is visible, Rengganis is carrying a tray containing drinks and snacks to entertain Lindhu Aji and Larasati.
"Put it on the table just Nimas.., I and Kang Aji happen to be talking about something.." Wisanggeni ordered his wife, to put drinks and snacks in the place she appointed. Without saying much. Rengganis placed the tray on the table, then kissed Lindhu Aji's hand to salute the older party.
"Give me drinks and snacks for mbakyu Larasati in Nimas Maharani's room.." Wisanggeni again asked Rengganis to deliver the drink to senthong.
"Well, my brother.., I live inside first ya.." politely, smiling Rengganis say goodbye to Lindhu Aji.
"Yes Nimas Rengganis.., go.." Lindhu aji immediately responded to the woman's words. The two men sent Rengganis by looking at her, until she entered the Maharani resting place.
As far as Rengganis, Wisanggeni recounted the incident at Gunung Jambu college, during the college he left. On the basis of humanity and mercy, giving help to the citizens and crown prince of Logandheng kingdom, finally made the Maharani seriously injured.
"Give Raden Bhadra to the kingdom of Logandheng Dhimas.., if you want to stop this dispute." after sighing, Lindhu Aji advised Wisanggeni.
