Sanggana Swordsman
88. A Terrible Rescue
*Holy Blood Ring*
Surprised by the riding woman who was being chased by the horde of riding men. How could the sandy soil in front of there glide a red ray patterned picture of a spider web, which then appeared the figure of the woman rising from within the pattern of the rays and then standing right in the path of the galloping horse?
“What ghost is it?” ask the riding woman to herself.
“What creature is it?!” Bala Rong who was leading the chase towards the beautiful woman riding in front, was also surprised by the appearance of the female figure from within the ground shining red.
The other five men also glanced in surprise at the appearance of the female from within the ground. They all instantly recognized the magical figure that came out from within the ground. That woman was the woman they passed behind. Bala Rong has ordered Bong and Lai to arrest the woman. The woman was none other than Tirana who used the science of the Laba-Laba Aisle to save the riding women from the pursuit of the criminals led by Bala Rong.
With a calm demeanor, Tirana stood right in the running path of the horses.
“Soaring!” shouted the woman dressed in blue red from on her horse. The real scream was not understood by Tirana.
Tirana gestured for the woman to slightly bend the horse and not run over him. The riding woman quickly deflected a little run of her horse so as not to hit Tirana's body. So fast the horse crossed several ranges on the left side of Tirana. Tirana stood still as if the horse was just a desert wind trajectory.
After that, Tirana was confronted by six horses that also ran fast and were ready to hit his body.
“Bump that demon!” shouted Bala Rong to his men.
The woman riding spurred her horse while looking back. He wants to see the fate of Tirana which will certainly be hit, at least by one horse.
Brocker!
Bala Rong with his horse who ran fast like hitting a steel wall is not visible when it hit Tirana. The skull of Bala Rong's head was crushed together with the skull of a horse's head when it arrived two jengkal from the skin of Tirana. Fractured also the bones of the neck and other bodies, both Bala Rong and the horse mount. It was clear how the horse and its rider were racing at high speed and then hitting a hard wall that was not visible.
One horse, along with its rider, fared equally badly with Bala Rong. Right hit Tirana, overtaking its leader. While the other two horses like crashing, but only nudge the invisible wall. As a result, the two horses bounced to the side and fell to the ground with the rider.
As for the other two horses that ran chasing somewhat on the side of the wings, it did not hit the magical wall belonging to Tirana because it was a bit far away.
How surprised the horsewoman witnessed the strangeness. His mouth was agape from being stunned. However, both of his hands immediately pulled the horse's harness to a sudden stop.
“Run! Run!” shouted Bala Rong's surviving men. He became so frightened to see the fate of his leader and the strangeness made by Tirana.
The two riding men stopped chasing the riding woman and chose to go the other way.
Bala Rong and one of his men died in terrible conditions with his horse also dying horribly. The heads of both horses and both riders were destroyed. Two other Bala Rong men also died after falling hard with his horse, but his physical condition is still better than the leader.
One horse that bounced and fell managed to get up again. The horse was about to run away without its master again. But before leaving, Tirana quickly flashed in the air and landed sitting right in the saddle of the horse. Quickly he controlled the horse's harness. As a result, the horse officially belonged to Tirana.
The horsewoman, who had been hunted, came closer to the Tirana horse, but fear kept her from getting too close. He was actually quite goosebumps looking at the way Bala Rong and his men died.
“Nona! Thank you for showing up to help me!” said the woman somewhat shouting as her hands met in front of her chest with her upper body slightly bent, showing her respect and gratitude.
However, Tirana was silent. He did not understand the words of the rather narrow-eyed beautiful woman. Tirana decided to run her horse closer to the woman.
“Do not approach!” exclaimed the woman quickly while advancing her right palm.
Tirana's smile made the woman conclude that Tirana was not the enemy. The proof, Tirana appeared to help him. Even though the way is so scary.
“Who are you, Miss?” ask the woman.
“Hm?” murmured Tirana while showing a face mimic asked.
“Who are you, Miss?” ask the woman again.
“I don't understand your words,” said Tirana in a different language as her right hand went down moving signalling touching her chest, then her palm was shaken by the sign “not”, he said, then the fingers are opened and closed symbolizing the speech of the lips.
“Oh, you are from a foreign land apparently,” said the woman immediately understood after hearing the words of Tirana who was also foreign in her ears. He smiles. He then pointed at himself and said, “Zhao Lii!”
“Zhao Lii?” repeat Tirana in a questioning tone while pointing at the clean yellow-skinned woman.
“Yes, my name is Zhao Lii,”.
“Tirana,” says Tirana while touching her upper chest.
“Tirana?” point at the girl named Zhao Lii in a requestioning tone.
“Iya,” replied Tirana with a big smile.
“Hahaha!” zhao Lii laughed at last. It feels funny and rigid the way they get acquainted and communicate. The fear and tension in him gradually disappeared. “Nona Tirana from where?”
Tirana was silent for a moment, as if trying to digest the meaning of Zhao Lii's question.
“I want to go west,” Tirana replied after running two fingers of her right hand over the back of her left hand and pointing towards the sunset.
“You want to go west?” zhao Lii asked again while pointing west.
Tirana nodded which made her interlocutor laugh. Tirana just smiled broadly.
“I asked you where you came from, but you answered your purpose instead. But it's okay,” Zhao Lii said. He then pointed at the sky and then placed one palm on his cheek while tilting his head. “It's dark today, stay at my place. Tomorrow you can continue your journey west. Let me greet you as my gratitude for helping me.”
Despite not understanding all of Zhao Lii's words, Tirana was able to guess the intent of the invitation.
“Iya,” replied Tirana nodded.
“Follow me to my father's place!” zhao Lii exclaimed and then crushed the belly of his horse with both of his legs.
Tirana immediately followed Zhao Lii with her new mount.
The two beautiful girls rode relentlessly down the rocky desert as the night fell.
After riding for half an hour, they arrived at a military camp. (BH)
