Fairytale# Dragon snake story

One day, accidentally when Jol was busy fishing for shrimp, he heard a sound
ask for help.
“Help…please…toooolooong.”
Jol tried to get closer to the voice asking for help. When Jol arrived at the place where the sound came from, Jol was shocked and afraid, then he screamed.
"Mr..., Melor..." Jol shouted me-
called his father and brother. Pak Alim and Melor hurriedly approached the jol.
"Ah, what's wrong jol?" Melor asked.
“Look, there is a snake trapped in the roots
wood. The snake couldn't move, and...
strangely the snake could talk, that was him
ask for help," explained Jol's spirit.
"Really jol?" Mr. Alim added the question "it's true, how can snakes talk?"

"Yes, that's right sir!" Jol said.
"Let's try asking this snake." Jol said
to his father.
"Hey snake, why did you get tangled up in it
those small, narrow roots? That is so
"It's dangerous for you," said Pak Alim to the snake.
The snake answered, "Old man, I accidentally passed through the hole in this circle of roots, but I couldn't get through, and
I'm stuck in this root. Can you guys
let me go? I promise to help.
Whatever your request later."
“Really snakes? Whatever we ask,
can you help us?” asked Jol, trying to emphasize the snake's words.
"Really, believe it!" said the snake solemnly. Finally, Mr Alim
and her two children helped untie it
the trapped snake.
"Thank God... despite you being a snake." Melor said.
“Thank you, you guys have helped me.
So, what can I do for you?" said the snake.
"O snake, if you have strength,
help us to get fish,
shrimp, crab, and scallops are in
this river. Sometimes into our evenings
didn't get any catch
a lot, can you make us get a lot of catches?” Jol said sadly to the snake.
The snake answered "Okay. Because
You guys have been good to me, I will fulfill your request, but with
One requirement.
Please protect this river,
Don't let humans pollute this river. In the future, I will also get older and my body will grow bigger. For this reason, this river must not be damaged, shallow and polluted. I want to live in peace
in this river. I will make a river
it's full of fish, shrimp, crab, and
shell."
After Pak Alim, Melor, and Jol helped the snake, they immediately returned home.

Since that incident, the river
full of fish, shrimp, crab, and
shell. Mr Alim's family is doing it
live with happiness. So as
with the surrounding residents. Income
The community and Mr Alim's income are increasing day by day.
Apart from that, Mr. Alim was very happy and
happy with his wife and two children

Melor and Jol are very diligent in helping people
like their parents, Mr. Alim and his wife. Mr. Alim's children are also very obedient
praying and reciting the Koran. They also respect their parents. Many residents are happy to be friends with Mr Alim's family.
Joking accompanies Pak's life
Alim. Mr. Alim's neighbors are all there
friendly and helpful to each other.
"Assalamualaikum…"
"Son, is Mother there?" said the neighbor, sir
Alim came to Mr Alim's house.
"Waalaikumsalam, eh... Mak Long," he said
Melor from inside the house.
"There is Mak Long, please come in Mak
Long.”
Melor invited Mak Long to come
go into the house. Turns out it meant it
Mak Long's arrival wanted to give him clothes
pot brackets for jumpers and clothes
Laboh brackets for Melor.
Mrs. Melor, of course very happy,
because the neighbors always help
they. Pak Alim is like that too, always helping his neighbors. Pak Alim often gives side dishes to his neighbors from the results of catching fish in the river.
That's the life of Sir's family
Alim with his neighbors. So do all the people in this village,
everyone is happy, because almost everyone is
people become fishermen. They
never experienced a lack of results
fish catch. Living together
between neighbors in this village is never interrupted. This village's peace and existence
a river full of fish began to be heard
by many people, so it is getting more and more day by day
This village is getting busier. Many people
foreigner who started living in Pak Alim's village.
Various tribes, customs and good behavior
from people who had just come from the village
next door or from another village.
The immigrants preferred to become fishermen rather than farmers. That matter
making the once calm river start
disturbed by the presence of many people
looking for catches in the river without paying attention to the cleanliness and sustainability of the river.
The village community began to worry about the presence of new, irresponsible people.

They go to the river not only to look for fish, shrimp and crabs.
They also always bring provisions for them
lunch wrapped in plastic.
After stuffing their stomachs, they threw their rubbish into the river
just.
Apart from throwing rubbish carelessly,
some of them are even starting
cutting down mangrove trees.
Mangrove trees are used to make charcoal and some people use them
for hedges in vegetable gardens.
In fact, mangrove trees are very important for the life of fish, crabs and shrimp in rivers.
Every day there are people doing things...
the person who damaged the river in the village.
There are people who want to get results
catch fish quickly, they
Use poison to make fish easier to catch. Even though poison can damage rivers and kill fish and animals
other rivers.
This incident is very disturbing to residents
Mr. Alim and of course knew this
local people. Mr. Alim with his efforts
always advise people who don't
responsible for that.
“Hey brothers, know what you are doing in this river is wrong. If you
want to catch enough fish with a net
and fish traps, don't use fish poison."
said Mr Alim.
That's how Mr. Alim forbids it every day
and advise irresponsible people who only damage the river
where they earn their living.
Pak Alim felt disappointed because he didn't
not a single person cared about his advice. They think Mr. Alim is a person
who has no knowledge.
Pak Alim's disappointment grew, after seeing that the river in his village was no longer beautiful and clean.
Garbage started strewn everywhere.
In rivers and in people's homes.
The mangrove forests in the river are starting to be damaged and
bald, environmental sustainability that used to be
once there has been lost.
Mr. Alim said to his children.
“Kid, ever since those guys started
settled here, our river is not like
Formerly. Fish and shrimp are getting better every day
decreasing. They just come here
bring us trouble.”
"Sir..., be patient sir, we can't
do nothing. They just assume
we as village people are not
have knowledge. They do not
care about what we say.” Melor tried to calm his father's heart.
“Melor…jol, when you grow up, please protect the environment because if it is damaged, it will be a pity for the people
difficult. Whatever your job will be.
I ask you to keep it clean
environment. You must remember this."
“Son...work diligently, be persistent in all your work so that, after success, not everyone will think so
we are weak. Poverty sometimes makes
people judge people who are poor in wealth, then
everything is poor. Thoughts that
like that's wrong. We still maintain ethics
when we are rich or poor."
Melor and Jol answered simultaneously.
"Yes sir, we will always listen to your advice. We won't
wasting your hopes."
Mr. Alim's advice to children-
Her lust never stopped. Almost every
Pak Alim's day gave encouragement to
their children to be proud children.

Since Pak Alim's village started
lots of people. Family happiness sir
Even pious life doesn't last long
Mr Alim is getting worse. Income
they continue to fish in the river
reduce. Almost every morning, afternoon, even at night they go fishing
fish in the river. Unfortunately, their efforts did not yield results so they didn't
can be sold and given to neighbors
Again. This situation upset Mr. Alim's family
sad.
One afternoon, the sky was cloudy and rainy
drooping down. Pak Alim, Melor and Jol want to lift the trap that has been placed in the river since morning. Pak Alim vaguely saw a snake passing by the side of the trap.
"What is that..." said Pak Alim with feeling
shocked while swallowing hard.
"That snake, was it really big?" Mr Alim
said in his heart. Mr. Alim no
tell this to his children.
Since Mr. Alim met the snake.
People often see large snakes.
Village residents often see large snakes
passing across the connecting bridge
the opposite village is on the edge
river. Almost all residents have seen the big snake.
The existence of the big snake does not
make Mr Alim afraid to go to the river. On
One afternoon, Pak Alim returned to fish
and took the fish trap that he had put down the day before.

“Oh God... why isn't there one?
the fish that went into this trap? Is it true
the fish were all eaten by the big snake
I've seen?" said Mr Alim.
Suddenly, in the dim twilight, there was light
shining very brightly like a beam of light that kept moving closer
towards Mr. Alim.
“Oh my God…snake? Then that light?”
“The light seems to come from
snake head. Oh..., it turns out to be a crown. The snake has a crown.” Mr Alim
very surprised.

Mr. Alim's surprise had not yet ended, suddenly
suddenly the snake said.
“Old Man, do you know who I am? I'm the snake you've helped some of
last year."
“I'm getting bigger now, look
My body is like a coconut trunk. I
has become a dragon snake, but the water of this river
it gets shallower and dirtier every day.”
“This river, it's too hot now,
all the mangrove trees have been cut down. Rubbish-
Garbage pollutes this river. I don't anymore
can live in this river. I'm looking for a place
I'm going nowhere, which means I have to cross the river."
“It's not just me, even other animals can't live in the river
This. All humans are cruel, unable to protect the environment and preserve this river.
I will go far into the open sea, Because
I feel annoyed with humans, I will
wagging my tail on the high seas, so
the water of my wave will flood the river and
this village."
"I'm sorry, the magic dragon snake, I
I've tried to advise everyone,
to keep guarding this river, but no
no one cares what I say." Mr Alim
explain.
"I don't blame you old man,
but I'm disappointed with people who
don't care about this river. Therefore
from this moment. Fish, shrimp, crab, etc
everything in this river that
If you can sell it, I will destroy it. Only
I'll just leave a little."
Pak Alim rushed home because he was afraid of endangering himself.
After meeting the magical dragon snake
who was angry, then Pak Alim told him
the incident happened to his children and wife, and
concluded that the small snake that had been helped had turned into a large snake
that's scary and the crown that's on
his head shows the snake is Sang
Magic Dragon Snake.
Since that incident Mr. Alim has not been there again
become a fisherman. However, this did not make Mr Alim despair and sad. Sir
Alim earns his living as a farmer
grow vegetables.
Pak Alim's story about his meeting
with the big snake in the river spread to
all the village residents.

At the end of the year in this village
there are always floods. When a flood occurs
Village communities have difficulty getting clean water.
Apart from the lack of clean water, the community
also experienced crop failure which resulted in it
on income and welfare
The village community is getting worse.
The same thing happened to the family
Mr Alim. They experienced the same thing
for days. When it happens
flood, Jol always remembers it again
the beginning of the flood in the village
they.

Jol then said to his sister Melor.
"Sis... just try society and people...
the people who had just arrived were aware of their mistake. Don't throw rubbish
carelessly, don't cut down forests carelessly, maybe there won't be a flood like this. Of course the dragon is a powerful snake
won't be angry with us. right Sis?”
Jol asked in an annoyed tone.
Jol's sister answered,
“Jolly...humans always want to win
yourself, don't think about the consequences
will happen with their actions."
“Irresponsible people
responsible for destroying the environment. Like
what happened in our village. It happened
Floods make us short of crops
from the garden. Besides, they are too
destroying life and mangrove trees in
around the river. It's only natural that
the powerful dragon snake was angry at
the people of this village."
"That's right Sis. That's how it is if not
there is a public awareness of love
"This is our village," said Jol in response to his brother's words.
“Jol...we can't just blame
other people, we should start with ourselves
"We ourselves, we protect the environment, don't throw rubbish carelessly."
"If we have tried to
organize ourselves to continue
protect the environment, at least already
reduce environmental pollution.
