It is said that, long before the territory of this sultanate, in the country of Jambi has stood five villages, but has not had a leader aka the king. For that, the elders of the five villages agreed to find a king who could lead and unite the five villages. After the deliberations, they agreed that anyone could be a leader, but on condition that they must pass the exam. What is the mandatory test to become the leader of the five villages? The story you can follow in the story of the Origin of the King of State of Jambi following.
In ancient times, the territory of the State of Jambi consists of five villages and has not had a king. The villages are Seven Koto, Sembilan Koto, Petajin, Muaro Sebo, and Batin Duo Belas. Of the five villages, Batin Duo Belas was the most influential village.
The days of the five villagers continue to be crowded and their fate needs continue to grow. Watching the development, there arose a thought among them that the fate of the obligatory more orderly, there must be a king who is able to lead and unite them. To that end, the elders from each village gathered in the Batin Duo Belas Village located at the foot of Siguntang Hill (now Mukomuko Hamlet) for deliberation.
"Before we choose a king among us, what if we first determine the criteria of the king that we will choose. What do you think the criteria of a good king is? "Asked the elder of the Batin Village Duo Belas to open the talks at the meeting.
"In my opinion, a king must have advantages among us," said the elder of the Village Seven Koto.
"Yes, right! A king must be stronger, both born and inner, "added the elder from the village of Petajin.
"I agree with that opinion. We must choose a respected and respected king, "said the elder of Muaro Sebo Village.
"Do you all agree with that opinion?" Asked the elder from the village of Batin Duo Belas.
"Agreed!" Answered the meeting participants in unison.
Finally, they agree on the criteria of the king they will choose, which must have advantages among them.
"But how do we get to know each other's strengths among us?" Asked the elder from the village of Sembilan Koto.
"In that case, every aspiring leader must test his performance," said the elder of Batin Duo Belas Village.
"How?" Asked the curious village elders.
"Each candidate is required to pass four tests, namely burned, immersed in boiling water for seven hours, used as a cannon and fired, and milled with an iron refinery. Whoever successfully passes the test, then he is the right to become king. Do you agree? "Asked the elder of the Village Batin Duo Belas.
All the participants agreed and were ready to look for a future king. They agreed to carry out the test within three days in the village of Batin Duo Belas. Eagerly, all elders return to their respective villages to appoint one of their citizens to represent their village in the test. Surely each village hopes to win the test. Therefore, they will choose the people who are considered the most powerful among them.
The execution time of the examination arrived. All residents of the five villages have gathered in Batin Duo Belas Village to witness the thrilling dueling competition. Each village has prepared their respective representatives. Before the race begins, participants who will appear first and so on are drawn first.
After drawing, apparently the first draw fell against the envoys from Desa Sembilan Koto. The village representative went into the middle of the field to be tested. He was burned with a blazing fire, but his body was not scorched and not too hot. The second test, he was immersed in boiling water, but his body did not blister in the slightest. The third test, he put into the mouth of the cannon and then ignited with fire and fired. He also bounced and fell various fathoms. He immediately woke up and stood straight up like nothing happened. The whole audience was amazed to see the greatness of the representative of the Sembilan Koto Village.
When entering the latest exam, suddenly the atmosphere becomes quiet. The whole audience became tense, because this latest exam is the hardest test. If the supernatural representation of the Sembilan Koto Village was no more potent, then the whole bone would be crushed and crushed. The truth is, never before the mill grinds its whole body, the man has roared in pain, because his bones are crushed and crushed. Milling was immediately stopped. Representative of the village of Sembilan Koto was declared not pass the test and failed to become king of Jambi.
