The Fighter
Chapter 53 The Treatment Process
After Wisanggeni prepared the concoction for the series of treatment, he put it in a wooden tub. He called for Bhishma to add warm water, and immediately asked Ki Brahmono to enter in immediately. With the help of Bhishma, Ki Brahmono immediately soaked in the wooden tub. Wisanggeni immediately channel energy and energy in the immersion water.
"Uncle.., endure the pain that will arise when uncle goes into the water. After one incense stick is gone, the pain will appear and be felt." Wisanggeni advised Ki Brahmono.
"Well Ki Sanak.., I'll hold him down. What else should I prepare?" sahut Ki Brahmono.
"Uncle can drain the power inside that still uncle can control well. Because this herbal medicine will seep into the body, so with the energy in the flow will help the absorption process."
Ki Brahmono nodded.
After giving direction to Ki Brahmono, Wisanggeni turned to Bisma and Niken daughter of Ki Brahmono.
"Uncle Bhishma.., do not leave uncle Brahmono alone in the room. Try to soak the water to stay awake in a warm state lukewarm. If it feels cold, uncle can add hot water to it, or maybe can ask Nimas Niken to channel energy into it" said Wisanggeni.
"Well Den.., I will be here to accompany Ki Brahmono." said Bisma obediently.
"How long will Kang, father have to soak in this potion?" Niken asked in a soft voice. Wisanggeni.
"Wait until the five incense sticks out Nimas. Remember the message that I just delivered, channel energy to the water so that the process of preparing herbal concoction to the pain suffered by uncle can be more effective results."
"Then during this immersion process, please allow me not to join first. Because I have to do meditation for a while, because it must restore my energy back." continued Wisanggeni.
"I'm sorry Ki Sanak.., the situation I suffered so it makes a hassle nak Wisanggeni. Hopefully with meditation and a short rest, son Wisang recovered his energy." with a sense of hesitation, Ki Brahmono apologized to Wisanggeni.
"No need so uncle, as fellow humans we do have to look after and help each other. There are things that we must take care of, including one of them so that we do not accidentally hurt the hearts of other humans" said Wisanggeni again smiling.
Hearing Wisanggeni's last words, Niken lowered his head. Shame gushed into his heart, he recalled, when together with the elders of the Suroloyo Clan and the Young Master in the Red Lightning college, they paid a visit to the Bhirowo Clan. Even without the consent of Ki Brahmono, he had unilaterally broken off the engagement between him and Wisanggeni. At that time he did not think that many hearts would be hurt by the decisions he took. All of that was only for the sake of her personal ambitions, wanting to become a female swordsman in the region.
"Your heart is glorious, son, how glad it would be if I could get to know both of your parents. It's really lucky that they have a very virtuous son like you." Ki Brahmono said sincerely, he was wondering if the young man could be his son-in-law. But seeing the gentle and beautiful face of Rengganis who always accompanied and escorted Wisanggeni, she could only smile wryly.
"Okay uncle.., I'll go back to my room first." Wisanggeni then say goodbye to rest. He deliberately did not want to open the identity of who he was to keep the taste of the old man.
**************
Sweat the size of a grain of corn flowed along Ki Brahmono's body, with all his might he endured the pain that was very difficult to shift. Pain, a feeling like pricked needles, even like a bamboo rod piercing behind his back. Ki Brahmono drained the inner energy that he could still control, assisted by Niken who also helped drain his energy to strengthen his endurance.
"Relax Nimas.., I can still hold him. Awww..." Ki Brahmono shouted again. Even though he felt extreme pain, the old man was grateful. Because before he could not feel anything, because almost his entire body was paralyzed and numb.
Niken desperately wanted to help ease her father's pain, but there was nothing she could do. Ki Brahmono still continued to bite his lips and closed his eyes. A moment later his eyes were opened, and closed again.
"Uncle Bhishma.., get me some hot water!! The water is starting to get cold." Niken asked for Bhishma. The waiter quickly picked up a thermos, and then Niken put it in a wooden tub.
The more daylight, Niken's father is in more pain. His body grew increasingly limp, and the cries of pain were no longer able to let him out anymore.
"Sssshh..," Ki Brahmono hissed in pain, he bit his lips.
"Patience father.., soon it's over. This is an effort for the recovery of my father." sounding Niken encouraging Ki Brahmono. Some healers had been brought in for his father's recovery, but they gave up losing after several tries. Just this time, Niken felt confident about the treatment efforts given by her former fiancee.
"Nimas.., rest and eat first, let uncle Bhishma watch over and drain energy for Ki Brahmono!" The bisma asks Niken to rest. He could not bear to see Niken increasingly wary of the suffering of his father.
"Later uncle, Niken is still strong. Niken wants to accompany his father in undergoing treatment, especially Kang Wiraga also has not come here to visit his father." Niken refused the request of Bhishma.
"Maybe Den Wiraga still have busy or work that Nimas can not leave." Wiraga was the first son of Ki Brahmono, who since having a life partner, decided to live alone in another city.
"Yes uncle, Niken understands too. Moreover, mbakyu Mayang also just gave birth to niken's nephew." Niken chimed in the words of Bhishma with a smile.
Bhishma finally let the second daughter of the leader of the Suroloyo Clan take direct care of her father's treatment, at least no one helped her to serve Ki Brahmono.
By late afternoon, the fourth incense stick was burning. Ki Brahmono was already feeling weak, and with the help of Bhishma, the leader of the Clan was lifted up and seated on a chair.
"Dad, drink first!" Niken handed him a cup containing boiled water of lemongrass and red ginger, which he mixed with palm sugar. Ki Brahmono received the cup and drank the warm water given by his daughter.
"How do you.., want to rest first or can you eat already?" Niken asked Ki Brahmono.
"Daddy rest first, son.., later if you want to eat, I will ask Bisma to prepare it." Ki Brahmono tried to move his legs but could not yet. He again drank ginger lemongrass wedang while leaning his head on the back of the chair.
