The Sky Dragon Swordsman
#145. After Over Fifteen Years
An old man was seen coming out from the gold mining pit in the Danpuur area over ten meters deep. Two of his colleagues, a little younger, appeared to help the old man out of the hole.
"How'S..??! have you found it..?? Hardik a man of stout stature with a sword slung at his waist and a whip in his right hand.
"I'm sorry, sir, there's too much water inside. we have to get that water out to dig deeper.. " replied the old man with a wry face and a little pale because since morning there had been no food filling his stomach.
"Well, you slackers..!!" snapped the burly man and waved the whip at the old man's back with his two partners, who knocked the three to the ground.
The old man's back barely left the part that was not hit by the whip. The condition of his body illustrates that the old man had been subjected to torture for a long time.
when the burly man was still whipping several times the three weak bodies.at the gate of the gold mine was heard the footsteps of hundreds of horses were coming to the mining site.
Hundreds of horsemen armed with pennants - the banner of the kingdom of Nishada stopped on a piece of land that is quite spacious.
"Gather everyone here" cried General Desmar, dressed in his great clothes.. "
Ninety-plus guards in special black uniforms - hit with swords and whips around each waist - immediately gathered to face after seeing the banner of Nishada's greatness.
"Is my order unclear..?? I said everyone..!! " Hardik Desmar approached the leader of the guard while still riding his horse. The guard leader who wore red clothes and looked slightly more luxurious than the others looked slightly pale.
Seeing the face of Desmar who was wearing his great clothes.The guard leader was sure that Yaseka had managed to reclaim his position as King, while those who had been in the world of gold mining.. always giving assistance to Narendra to be able to occupy the throne and legalize slavery to become a miner.
The guard leader immediately whispered to one of his men, and the guard in black uniform climbed into a small hill and rang a bell as a sign that all the workers immediately gathered.
The guard who was still torturing the three people immediately stopped his action and raised his head, the location of their hole that was separated a little far did make the guard did not hear Desmar's orders.
"What's up..?! why are all the workers told to gather now..?! " the burly man was astonished because the sun had not yet reached its peak, while the bell would usually sound when the sun would sink.
"Let's get up..!! thank the bells..!! sniff the man.
The three miners helped each other to stand up and support each other to walk while the other eight colleagues followed from behind.
"Come.. hurry up and walk..!! we can go all day if you guys walk like that..!! " the burly man snapped and then lifted back his whip and hit the three men at once and made the three fall back down again.it made his partner immediately ran and helped them to stand up, but after that, the guard ordered them to walk first and allowed the three weak men to reach each other.
The eyes of the burly guard were wide-eyed when they saw hundreds of Nishada soldiers lined up neatly in the field that was used to gather workers to get rations for food before resting for the night.
"Why did his Majesty Narendra bring such an army.. when the inauguration day is tomorrow..?! " the man murmured inwardly and stretched back his whip until the three men fell back, the three people stood back up and continued their limped steps.
Long enough to wait for the three people to arrive and gather with all the workers in the field, in addition to their tubs that are weak because they have not received food.. their bodies also looked weak because they had been subjected to continuous torture.
"Are any of you from the Ming empire..??! if there is. please separate yourself with other workers to the left. "shouting Desmar heard by all workers.
Eighty-three workers and two guards immediately separated from the other workers including the last three to arrive.
"Among you guys.is there a Chen Lee.?.?." cried Desmar again as he looked at the group of workers from the Ming empire.
All the workers whispered to each other making a noise like the buzzing of a bee.
"Uncle.. Why are they looking for uncle..?" asked one of the men who was picking up an old man along with another friend.
"Yes uncle.. Why are they looking for uncle..? " whispered the other partner.
"Everyone please calm down..!! again... is there a person named Chen Lee..??!" shouted Desmar repeating.
An old man, assisted by two of his colleagues, appeared to be out of line.
" I am the master.I am Chen Lee" said the old man in fear.
A person on horseback and flanked by two men who were also riding gallant horses and in an umbrella by three warriors jumped straight from his horse.. and rushed towards the old man who claimed to be named Chen Lee.
Although his face had been tangled and wrinkled and his body was filled with mud but Chen Khu could still recognize that the old man was his father whom he had longed for.
"Yeah... !! "chanted Chen Khu and immediately calmed down and hugged the old man's leg while crying a mouthful.
"Sorry young master.it looks like the young master is wrong people." said the man who painstakingly tried to get Chen Khu to stand up.
"No ayaah.I am Chen Khu.your most spoiled boy..! " chen Khu said in his tears and kept calm while hugging his father's feet.
The old man immediately hugged Chen Khu very tightly as if letting go of his entire longing for over ten years apart.
All the soldiers escorting Chen Khu who was with Mathanadeva and Yaseka could not hold back the haru.Mathanadeva himself had to wipe his tears several times and clean his wet nose.
"I swear I will kill anyone who dares to slice an onion near me" said Mathanadeva in a joking tone, trying to shift his feelings.. even Yaseka turned her head while cleaning her wet nose.
"Well, a tough king like you turns out to have a soft cotton swab. "mock Yaseka while wiping her tears.
***
Yaseka himself, did not know Chen Khu well.The most attached to his memory is when Chen Khu took him flying away from the palace and left him on a very high tree branch.
Chen Khu who had won the battle against Batosai did indeed immediately dart into the air after paying his last respects to Batosai regardless of the cheers from Yaseka supporters who considered him a hero alongside Mathanadeva.
Chen Khu immediately picked up Yaseka who could only see a puff of dust and smoke in his territory as well as several other places in the capital from a distance.
Yaseka was very surprised when Chen Khu arrived - arrived already beside him and invited him back to his palace. Yaseka's surprise still continues when watching his palace that looks ravaged poranda with some buildings appear flat to the ground.
Everything was then treated with the welcome of the soldier who remained loyal to support him, as well as the embrace of Mathanadeva. Mathanadeva then briefly told how they got to Nishada, and asked Yaseka for help to find Chen Khu's father who was suspected to be in the Nishada kingdom.
Yaseka then ordered to clear everything in the palace and hold all the dissident soldiers, pending his next decision, and after gathering the entire townspeople to tell the true story.. Yaseka then ordered his five hundred men to escort them in search of Chen Khu's father.
Informants - informants owned by Desmar collected everything and obtained information there are five large mines that employ people from the central mainland continent, and the Danpuur gold mine became the first gold mine they came to.
***
Fifteen more years during the attack of the red scorpion sect in Anhui village..Chen Lee no longer knew the fate of Chen Khu, only to the knowledge that his entire family had been slaughtered by members of the Red Scorpion sect. The two hugged each other accompanied by a sobbing of novelty, and Chen Khu's cry suddenly stopped as his palm felt many scars on his father's back.
"Who has done this father..? " chen Khu said, helping his father to his feet.
"He's the one who made your father like that" said one of the men who took Chen Lee while pointing to one of the guards who was assigned to supervise their group.
Chen Khu stood up and asked Desmar to take his father.. Chen Khu's eyes seemed to light up. Fury enveloped him.The aura overflowed and made the guard's face like it was not drained of blood.
people who were near Chen Khu immediately moved away because the pressure of the aura that Chen Khu had made their breath feel tight.
Chen Khu walked slowly towards the guard who looked very frightened and turned his head left and right but the people around him were already away.. each step Chen Khu stepped on the ground as if making the earth shake.. Chen Khu moved quickly and picked up the whip on the guard's waist.
Chen Khu swung the whip towards the leg until it made a big tear on the man's calf, even his shin until it was visible. Chen Khu continued to swing his whip at the man but only slightly drained the energy in because Chen Khu wanted to make the man feel really tormented..
The people who were originally made to be moved by Chen Khu's encounter with his father are now made to shudder in horror at the wound on the man's body due to Chen Khu's lashings..The man eventually fell unconscious due to too many wounds on his body.
"Khu'er.. never mind..!! meeting you is enough to take all this pain away" said Chen Lee, trying to reassure his son, who continues to whip the guard despite his unconsciousness.
Chen Khu then stopped his actions after his father called him several times.
"Who is the owner of this mine.. ??" yaseka told the guard leader.
"Your noble Lord Kandala." replied the guard leader.
Kandala was one of the wealthy nobles in Nishada, even Kandala himself was a person - people near Narendra.
"I command this mine to be cut in the meantime.Free all who are slaves in this mine and other mines.... Catch 'em..!! " yeseka said to his soldiers to capture all the guards in the mine.
Yaseka also ordered General Desmar to immediately capture Kandala and bring him to the palace.
