The White Lotus Science
Part 26 Meet Grandpa


Because of his sadness, Datuak Malelo finally came out of the hut he had been in for a long time, Datuak Malelo intended to find his daughter Tiara who left secretly.


Old age, sometimes make his breath start to sting, if you have to run too long, on a tree, Datuak Malelo try to rest for a moment, to eliminate the fatigue that surrounds his body.


Every now and then he tried to look the other way, who knew he could still see Tiara who had left him. But very dear, Datuak Malelo found nothing.


“Where are you, why are you so desperate to leave Dad, who is so old,” muttered Datuak Malelo in a soft voice.


Meanwhile, far away there, Seruni who continued to run, finally he arrived at the hillside of Indarung. While sitting on a tree, suddenly, his eyes were fixed in a direction. From a distance Seruni saw a hunchbacked old man.


Seruni saw the grandfather, crawling up the cliff slope in front of him. Seruni felt very sad, wanted to help, immediately moved from her heart. Quickly, Seruni ran over to the old man.


“Grandpa, where are you going?” tanya Seruni wanted to know.


“You go home.”


“Go home, go home to the cake?”


“At the top there is a grandfather's house.”


“Above that cliff?”


“Iya son, on top of that cliff.”


“Wait a minute, let me help Grandpa to go upstairs.”


“Thanks son, thanks.”


“Sama-sama Kek,” Seruni replied, while holding the old Grandpa's hand.


Upon the arrival of the Grandfather, in the hut of his residence, he immediately did a hermitage, regardless of the presence of Seruni at all. Just like Hasanuddin's grandfather, the hunchback grandfather turned out to have even more severe injuries all over his body.


On Grandpa's body, Seruni smelled a foul and fishy smell, his chest felt so tight when he smelled it, like a wound after being burned. Seruni was very curious, his curiosity prompted him to ask.


“Kek, Grandpa's body why? burned up, huh?” ask Seruni curiously.


It must have been clear in his ears, but the hunchback Grandfather did not answer at all. Only his head is in the ring.


“Then why? pain for a long time huh Kek?”


Then Kekek nodded his head, a sign Seruni's question got a response from him.


“Kakek why are you on this hill alone? does Grandpa have family?” tanya Seruni wanted to know.


But the hunchback Grandfather did not answer, it made Seruni even more curious.


“Grandpa will not if this disease Grandpa I treat until healed?”


Hearing the last Seruni question, the old grandfather immediately opened his eyes and glared at Seruni.


“True, you can treat this wound of mine?” asked the old man, who could not believe it.


“Yes, I can treat it. Grandpa will, if I treat?”


Hearing Seruni's words, the old grandfather was not happy, but he just looked so moody and sad.


“Grandpa why moody?”


“You know not if the disease that Grandpa suffered was so long ago, even years ago.


Are you still able to cure him?”


“God willing, if we try, surely God gives us ease and Grandpa can be cured of this disease immediately. For God will give healing to those whom he wills.”


“If I am not desired to recover how?”


“Don't give up too soon, everything God has put on him, will be given wisdom afterwards. Receive that wisdom, rest assured we will be part of those who are sincere and patient.”


“Hm..! you said true too, son. Your God turned out to be so good, while my God, he no longer cared for me, even he gave me this cursed disease,” said the old grandfather with his head bent.


“Grandfather, my God, he is merciful and merciful. He will also grant the request of all his servants, both Muslim and non-Muslim, his love spread throughout the world.”


“Means your God is a lot dong!”


“Then how is your God, all over the world?”


“Grandfather, not his many Gods, but he is in every human heart. That is the greatness of my God, for it is only to him that all the creatures of the universe bend.”


“Ooo, so yes,” said the old grandfather was a mangosteen.


“O yes, whose grandfather's name is?” tanya Seruni wanted to know.


“Grandpa Mangkuto's name, nak.”


“Ooo, Mangkuto huh?”


“Iya.”


“What does Mangkuto mean is cake?”


“Word of old people first, Mangkuto means Crown.”


“Means Grandpa's parents first intended, will make his son a king, who wears a crown on his head.”


“Ya, just maybe so.”


“Yes already, then I ask for a glass of water, does Grandpa have?”


“I don't have a glass.”


“Cup is so, if there is.”


“Cup too, I do not have, let alone a cup, even water in this hut, no.”


“Waah..! Grandpa is strange yes, the house is so far up the hill, Grandpa did not even provide a glass of water. Then what do you drink?”


“If I'm thirsty, I have to go down the hill and later have to come back here.”


“Hm..! grandpa must not be an arbitrary person. I'm sure, surely Grandpa has a fairly high magic science.”


Seriate...


*Welcome to read*


“I'm not like that, here I'm just an outcast, a community trash that is not needed.”


“O yes?”


“Iya son, I am just an outcast.”


“Alright, then, let me go down the hill first to get some drinking water, stay here, until I return.”


“Calm down, I'm not going anywhere.”


After Seruni made a deal with Grandpa Mangkuto, he ran to find water down the hill. At the foot of the hill, Seruni got a very clear spring, the water that Seruni took to treat Grandpa Mangkuto.


Because it has no place to take water, Seruni was forced to ask for help from residents around the foot of the hill.


“Assalamu’alaikum,” greet Seruni from outside the house.


“Wa’alaikum salam,” replied Someone from the inside, while opening the door of his house.


When the door was opened, Seruni saw an old man in white robes coming out of the house.


“Who would you like to find?” ask the man.


“Can I ask for help, Mr.”


“Ask what please?”


“On the hill there, my grandfather is sick. He needs water once, but we have nowhere to take water, will you lend us a place to put a little water?”


“Ooo, sure.so the one on that hill, your grandfather huh?”
