The Three Chosen
343. Topaz Stone Secrets
The workers who were still standing on the edge of the quarry were asked to stay away from the place. They nodded then rushed away leaving Izar who was still standing observing at the edge of the excavation hole.
Izar frowned as he watched the greenish light slowly dim. Then he ventured
scrape the piece of land with an iron tip to see the origin of the light. Izar let out a long sigh as he felt the mystical aura he had just felt fading along with the vanishing greenish light.
“ O Allah, may this not be a bad sign and not disturb all those workers.
\=====
The next day Izar returned to the point of excavation with Iyaz who deliberately came to keep his promise. The project foreman came to them and presented the findings of his men to Iyaz and Izar.
“ Last night The children met this Topaz stone in the hole Pak..” said the foreman named Usep while showing a green stone.
Izar grabbed the stone, watched it for a moment and handed it to Iyaz.
“ Did the workers have any interruptions during here Sir..?” ask Izar.
“ Thank God they are well. They are the people I chose directly because of their experience working on the new land rich gini. They have always faced mystical disturbances or the like, so Mas Izar did not need to worry about them getting hurt.
“ Thank you so. I don't want them to get sick from working here.” said Izar.
“ Insha Allah they are safe Mas..,” sahut Usep steady to make Izar smile.
“ This stone is pretty good Zar...,” said Iyaz suddenly.
“ Yes Yaz. Keep good on this stone yes..?” ask Izar.
“ Sorry if I'm sassy. Topaz stone is good for jewelry such as stone rings or necklace pendants Mas..,” said Usep.
“ That's yes. But I and Iyaz don't like wearing a stone ring, sir. If Pak Usep wants, this stone is for Mr. Usep only..,”.
Izar.
“ Really for Me Mas..?” ask Usep with sparkling eyes.
“ Yes Sir..,” sahut Iyaz and Izar together.
Usep accepted it with pleasure. Usep imagined would make a pair of rings decorated with the stone for him and the wife later. After receiving the stone, Usep also paid to check the work of his men.
“ Mr. Usep honest person, I salute him..,” said Izar.
“ Right Zar. Though he could have immediately claimed the stone as his own because of his men who found out.
But he even told me to tell you We risk losing the stone..,” said Iyaz with a smile.
Both of them were preparing to leave because they did not find any irregularities in the excavation hole. But their steps stopped when a greenish light again burst behind the pores of the soil in the excavation hole. The two of them stayed there out of curiosity for something that was behind the green light.
It turns out that Iyaz and Izar are shown a glimpse of events that occurred hundreds of years ago.
At that time a man named Wasal was walking down the street with a staggered body. Not because of drunkenness but because Wasal was starving after a few days of not eating and only drinking water. Finally the weak body of the Wasal fell down because it could not resist hunger.
At that time Wasal fell near the root of a large and towering banyan tree. Wasal seemed to close his eyes because he could not see the bright sunlight.
“ Oh my God, am I going to die now ?. If so, I am ready God. I can no longer afford to live
this difficult life. I was humiliated, humiliated, abandoned just because I was poor and had nothing. But all is not what I want. I tried to live honestly like my parents taught me but where did it go. I was hated, persecuted, slandered and thrown away rich in rubbish. Do I have to be the bad guy to be equal to all of them. I'm tired, I'm sorry God.” Wasal groaned in my heart.
Suddenly a voice greeted him. The referee was surprised and opened his eyes. Up ahead he saw the figure of an old man standing while looking at him fixedly. The man held out an object in the form of a green stone chunk towards Wasal.
“ Take this and change your life..” said the old man.
“ You can sell it or have it as a good luck charm.
The referee got up and received the greenish stone. He seemed amazed by the sparkle of the stone to make his hunger disappear. After feeling his body condition improved, Wasal turned to the old man to say thank you but the old man disappeared somewhere. Did not want to take a dizzy Wasal also kept the stone behind his clothes and continued his steps.
Since having the stone Wasal has had a lot of luck. He met a wealthy merchant who lost his pocket.
“ Whoever finds my money bag then I will grant his wish.”, the merchant said with a huff.
Hearing that everyone was racing to find the bag of money of the merchant including Wasal who happened to pass in that place. The referee managed to find the merchant's money bag and handed it to the owner. After checking the contents, the merchant smiled and asked the Wasal.
“ What do you want in return..?” ask the merchant.
“ Job...,” sahut Wasal steady.
“ Work, why not money or jewelry.?” ask the merchant.
“ Because I need a job. And with that job I can make enough money
my life needs later..,” said Wasal.
The Wasal's reply amazed the merchant. He also gave the Wasal a job as a steward of horses in his house. The referee was happy because he got a job, salary and residence at the same time.
The effect of the stone also made Wasal admired by everyone including the merchant and his daughter. Even princesses
the merchant named Mayang Jati saw Wasal as a handsome man, educated and charisma to make him fall in love.
Mayang Jati's fiancee named Purba was not accepted when Mayang Jati broke off their engagement because he was interested in Wasal. With his money and power, Purba also intends to get rid of Wasal. He hired a hit man to kill the Wasal.
The referee who realized he was the target of Purba also tried to explain if he and Mayang Jati were not
have relationships. Apparently the love of Mayang Jati just clapped one hand. But the anger of the ancients was unstoppable. He continues to hunt the Wasal who fled into the forest.
The exhausted referee chose to stop at a river to rest on a rock. As Wasal fell asleep, Purba shot an arrow at him from a hidden spot. The arrow hit the target but not the Wasal but hit the heart of Mayang Jati.
It turns out Mayang Jati made himself a shield for the man he loved. He died right above the body
Refereeing. Blood flowed soaked Wasal's body which came from Mayang Jati's wound. The blood continued to flow until it pierced through Wasal's clothes and hit the green stone. In an instant the stone shone brightly and its rays shot rapidly towards Purba and his troops until they were killed on the spot.
The referee was shocked to learn that the old man's stone had taken a toll. He decided to bury the stone with the body of Mayang Jati. The referee placed the stone on the green stone and the body of Mayang Jati. Afterwards, the referee left the place and never returned.
For hundreds of years the stone was buried with the body of Mayang Jati and finally found again by the construction workers in the project owned by Erik's company.
Iyaz and Izar let out a long sigh after seeing the flash of the event.
“ A stone covered in blood from the heart of a holy girl does have great strength that is hard to match. We have to help Mr. Usep before anything bad happens to him.” Izar said.
“ Yes Zar...,” says Yes.
The two hurried after Usep who was seen going on his motorcycle to take care of the sand shipment
delayed.
“ We are late..,” said Iyaz gusar.
Izar fell silent for fear that something bad was happening to Usep and his family.
