Lutung Kasarung
Once upon a times there lived a beautiful princess named Purbasari. He is the youngest
child of Prabu Tapa Agung who is the king who led the kingdom of Pasir Batang.
Purbasari has six older sisters, Purbararang, Purbaendah, Purbakancana, Purbamanik and
Purbaleuih.
Purbasari has very good character and behavior. He is gentle, kind, and likes to help
everyone who needs help, he helps him with suicide. In addition to having a good heart,
Purbasari also has a very beautiful and beautiful face, everyone who sees it must fall in
love at first sight. But unfortunately the beauty and kindness of the underlying heart
did not decrease in his eldest brother, Purbararang, who had a very bad temper.
Although it has a face that is equally beautiful, but purbararang is very arrogant, rude,
jealous and also cruel to anyone.
After leading the kingdom and reigning for quite a long time, Prabu Tapa Agung
intended to abdicate. The king had thought carefully, that he would continue his
leadership he would appoint Purbasari. The King has been observing him for decades
that purbasari is the most suitable and suitable figure to replace him, not the
purbararang even though he is his eldest son. The King had thought about it wisely, he
considered the behavior of his elder son who was bad. Prabu Tapa Agung has a concern
that if the purbararang becomes king, the peace and peace of people’s lives will be
disrupted and even damaged due to the leadership of Purbararang who has a very bad
nature.
In front of all the officials and members of the kingdom and their seven daughters,
King Tapa Agung gave his throne to Purbasari. Prabu Tapa Agung then left his royal
palace to begin his new life as an ascetic.
Purbararang was very angry when he found the royal throne of Pasir Batang handed
over to his youngest brother and not to him. So, one day after the coronation of
Purbasari became the Queen of the Kingdom of Pasir Batang, Purbararang contacted
her fiance Indrajaya. Both of them then asked the help of the witch to harm Purbasari.
Then the evil witch gave a bore (black substance made from plants) to Purbararang.
Then the witch said. “Immerse this boreh and the whole body of Purbasari.”
Purbararang immediately carried out what the evil witch said. The boreh was splashed
on Purbasari’s face and entire body. As a result, Purbasari’s entire body and face
appeared horrible and disgusting black patches. With these conditions Purbararang has
a reason to be able to expel Purbasari from the palace.
“People who are cursed to have such a terrible and disgusting disease are very
inappropriate to become the royal Queen of Pasir Batang. He should be exiled to the
forest so that the disease is not contagious, “said Purbararang.
Then after Purbasari felt Purbararang took the throne of the Pasir Batang Kingdom. He
gave the order to Uwak Batara who was the palace adviser to alienate Purbasari into
the forest.
When Purbasari was exiled in the forest, there was a big problem in Khayangan. Prince
Guru Minda is not pleased to marry the heavenly nymphs as ordered by his mother
Sunan Ambu. Prince Guruminda is only pleased to marry a woman whose beauty is
equivalent to her mother Sunan Ambu.
Sunan ambu explained that the female figure who was as beautiful as herself would only
be met by Prince Guruminda in the human world. However, if Prince Guruminda insisted
on wanting to meet a woman according to his wishes, he must go to the world not in the
form of Prince Guruminda who is handsome and handsome, but must be in the form of
disguise in the form of langur. willing to do it? “.
Prince Guruminda stated his willingness. After transforming into a Lutung Kasarung,
Prince Guru Minda immediately descends to the human world. He arrived in the forest.
In a very short time Lutung Kasarung has become the king of the langurs and apes in
the forest. This is very reasonable because there are no monkeys or langurs that can
match the power, intelligence and strength of Prince Guruminda.
Lutung Kasarung knows the ugliness and cruelty of Purbararang who enthroned as queen
in the kingdom of Pasir Batang. Lutung Kasarung or Prince Guruminda really wanted to
teach the cruel Queen. So, when he heard of Purbararang’s plan to look for sacrificial
animals in the forest, Lutung Kasarung let himself be captured by people from
Purbararang’s mess.
Before being used as sacrificial animals, Lutung Kasarung suddenly went berserk and
caused damage to the Pasir Batang palace. The royal soldiers of Pasir Batang who intend
to capture him are made helpless. Lutung Kasarung seems to show hostility with all the
soldiers of the Kingdom of Pasir Batang.
Seeing the condition of his soldiers who were so pressed. Purbararang asked Uwak
Batara to tame Lutung Kasarung. Strangely when Uwak Batara advanced to the
battlefield, Lutung Kasarung seemed to not intend to hurt Uwak Batara. Even when
Uwak Batara caught him Lutung Kasarung did not fight at all. Purbararang immediately
asked Uwak Batara to throw Lutung Kasarung into the forest where Purbasari was
exiled. He wanted Purbasari killed by Lutung Kasarung, whom he considered a wild
animal.
Uwak Batara immediately brought the Lutung Kasarung to the place where the base was
exiled. But Uwak Batara believes that Lutung Kasarung is not an ordinary animal,
therefore he gave a message to Lutung Kasarung if he met Purbasari “Lutung, daughter
who is currently in front of you he is the daughter of Prabu Tapa Agung, Purbasari is a
kind princess should be the queen and lead the kingdom of Pasir Batang. Because of his
evil powers he was exiled from the kingdom and thrown into this forest, so let you
guard our lord. ”
Lutung Kasarung nodded his head that he understood. So since then Lutung Kasarung
became a guard and became a close friend of Puteri Purbasari. With the presence of
Lutung Kasarung on his side, Purbasari’s sadness slowly disappeared. He gets friends
who can entertain and protect him. In fulfilling their daily needs, Lutung Kasarung
ordered the monkeys to bring food and fruits to Purbasari. Softness of heart, and the
kindness of Purbasari’s nature make Lutung Kasarung more and more love Purbasari.
While the attitude of responsibility, leadership and intelligence possessed by Lutung
Kasarung made Purbasari fall in love. The longer they feel they are inseparable from
each other.
Unbeknownst to Purbasari, Lutung Kasarung begged his mother Sunan Ambu to make a
beautiful garden with a bath for Purbasari. Sunan ambu then ordered the gods and also
the angels descended to earth to immediately realize the wishes of his son. Gods and
Angels make a garden and a very beautiful bath for Purbasari. The shower is made of
pure gold. The walls and floors are made of marble. The flowing lake water comes from
a small lake that is pure and very clean with prayers from the gods. Gods and Angels
call this beautiful garden the Salaka Latrine. In addition to being made a beautiful lake
and garden, the angels prepared some beautiful clothes for Purbasari. The clothes are
very beautiful and soft. Made of soft clouds and decorated with gems from the sea.
When looking at the lake with a very beautiful shower. Purbasari immediately intends to
take a bath and clean himself. At that moment the curse stuck to his face and his body
slowly disappeared. Her beauty has now returned. Lutung Kasarung who witnessed this
thing became stunned, he did not think that the person who had been loved had turned
out to be a very beautiful and charming woman. Even Purbasari’s beauty is able to
defeat the beauty of Sunan Ambu. Lutung Kasarung and Purbasari were very happy with
this situation. Even though Purbasari has regained his beautiful appearance, Purbasari’s
affection for Lutung Kasarung has not diminished in the slightest, increasing.
The news about the return of Purbasari’s beauty was so fast that it sounded
Purbararang. Purbararang does not believe in this news. Purbararang then invited his
fiance to see the truth of the news. How shocked he was to see Purbasari having
returned to his beautiful figure. Purbasari looks more enchanting by wrapping clothes
from angels.
Purbararang is worried, with the return of his sister’s beauty to threaten the throne
he currently controls. He also looked for other ways to get rid of his younger brother,
even this time he intended to get rid of Purbasari forever. Purbararang then challenged
Purbasari to clash long hair. He said. “If my hair is longer than Purbasari’s hair, then
Purbasari’s neck must be beheaded by the royal executioner.”
Purbararang swallowed a big disappointment after it was proven that his hair was as
calf as long as the Purbasari hair along the heel. Purbararang was very embarrassed by
his defeat. To cover up his defeat, Purbararang wanted a new challenge for Purbasari.
No half-hearted challenge is spoken in front of the entire Pasir Batang community.
With a loud voice to be heard by the entire community, Purbararang said. But if on the
contrary, then you have to give up your neck to be beheaded by the royal executioner. ”
Purbasari understands if he will not be able to win the challenge this time. But his love
for Lutung Kasarung made him strong. He held the hand of Lutung Kasarung. “I love you
and want you to be my husband.” He said to Lutung Kasarung. Tears flowed down her
cheeks. Lutung Kasarung grasped Purbasari’s hand then wiped tears from Purbasari’s
cheeks.
Purbararang burst out laughing. “The black monkey is your fiance?”
But before Purbararang ordered the executioner to cut Purbasari’s neck. Lutung
Kasarung suddenly sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. His mouth looked like a spell.
Suddenly thick smoke covered the entire body of Lutung Kasarung. It did not take long,
the thick smoke disappeared, then the coarse langur figure with the ugly face
disappeared as the smoke passed. Changed to the figure of Prince Guru Minda who was
very handsome and handsome.
Surprised all those present at the place when they discovered this extraordinary
miracle. How handsome Prince Guru Minda is, even far beyond the good looks of
Indrajaya tunangan from Purbararang.
Prince Guruminda then announced that the real queen of Pasri Batang was Princess
Purbasari. Purbararang found the defeat he made himself.
Purbararang cannot deny and must admit his defeat. There was nothing more he could
do besides surrendering the throne of the Pasir Batang kingdom to his younger brother
Purbasari. He also begged forgiveness for the crimes he had done with his fiancee
Indrajaya. With his kindness, Purbasari then forgave his elder brother’s mistake.
Since then Purbasari has reigned as Queen. All the people were very happy to welcome
their new queen, and at the same time apart from the shackles of the evil and cruel
Purbararang government. Their happiness increased when they learned that their
Queen Purbasari was married to the handsome and handsome Prince Guruminda.
Purbasari and Prince Guruminda also live happily.
