Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures - Vol 2 Chapter 1810
“Dobby can feel that there is something in here that is attracting Dobby, Dobby…”
Before he could finish his words, the rock wall in front of him suddenly changed.
A rippling magic ripple flashed, and the rock surface moved, as if something was about to come out of it. Soon, a large number of dark green vines appeared from behind the rock wall, which looked like devil vines. The vines were intertwined with each other on the rock wall to form a hole about the height of a house elf, and the interior was dark.
“It’s house-elf magic, and no wonder it’s never been discovered by wizards,” said Hermione in surprise. “The house-elves’ home is in there! Dobby, do you still feel anything?”
“Dobby doesn’t feel anything other than that magic, miss,” Dobby said sharply. “Is this the magic of the ancient house-elves? Dobby has never seen it before.”
“Let’s go in and see,” Hermione said eagerly.
“Better be careful.” Sirius said, the front of his wand emitting a strong light, extending his arm to the inside of the hole, the sides of the tunnel were constructed with a large number of vines.
They are intertwined, extending diagonally forward, leading to a place deep underground.
Because the passage is so narrow, only one person can pass through at a time.
The four discussed the formation and decided that Sirius would take the lead, Dobby would follow him, then Hermione, and Harry walking last. They entered the passage one after the other, discussing the magic of this magic and what the house-elf home might be.
The long and narrow tunnel goes all the way underground, not knowing where it leads. The three men’s wands were looming, and there was no danger.
Hermione crawled forward, carefully observing the vines on both sides. She had never seen this kind of plant before. It might be a magical plant cultivated by the ancient house elves. Soon, the rock wall behind the vines gradually turned into mud. , they had entered a deep place underground, at this moment, a flash of light suddenly flashed in her mind.
“Remember what the story of Lucky Spring said? The garden in the deep mountains is protected by high walls and powerful magic. Only the vines in the garden can prop up the high wall and open a passage. Those three The witch entered the garden through the passage of vines, which corresponds to what we are seeing.”
“I really don’t want that story to be true, because the second problem the witches encountered was a huge earthworm blocking the way.” Sirius’ voice came back from not far ahead, and it sounded strange, “In the Fighting underground, we don’t have the advantage, and I tried it just now, there is indeed a strange magic here, can’t Apparate, if… be careful, we seem to be somewhere.”
At the end of the vine tunnel is a huge space. When Harry crawled out, Sirius was waving his wand and shooting a sphere of light all around, a strong light that dispelled the darkness here.
Looking around, this is a huge underground cave. There are dense green vines on the surrounding rock walls. I can’t see the source of the vines, and I don’t know where they extend.
“This is where the house-elves live,” said Hermione, looking around constantly. “Look at these vines on the rock wall. They may be extending from the garden.”
“Forget the vines, where’s the Hufflepuff treasure key?” Sirius asked.
“The elf demon summoned at Hogwarts told us that Hufflepuff’s house elf brought her treasure to the house elf’s home,” Harry recalled, “if this is the house elf’s Home, then it must be somewhere in this cave.”
“But it’s very big here. It’s not easy to find the hidden things, and we don’t have time to find it slowly.”
“I know that if the legend is true, then the Hufflepuffs’ treasure may be at the last good fortune fountain, which is the core of this place.” Hermione said with certainty, “this is just the periphery of the garden. , I haven’t seen any other plants except vines.”
“Then where should we go? Or let Dobby touch the wall again and trigger the magic of the ancient house elf.” Sirius turned and asked, “Do you feel anything?”
“No!” said Dobby excitedly.
“In the story of Lucky Spring, the second test is the huge earthworm.” Hermione analyzed, “Do you remember the rock painting you just saw? We may be able to summon it.”
“Summon what?”
“The earthworm, or the horned snoring beast, it may also be the badger on the golden cup. I don’t know what it is. I can only know if it is summoned. It will take us to the third level.”
“Are you crazy?”
“It’s written like this in the story, I’m just analyzing.” Hermione said, and then she seemed to see something, and raised her voice suddenly, “I seem to have found that table, exactly as I thought, there should be a table here. .”
She took a quick step forward and came to a high raised stone.
“What kind of platform, please explain clearly.”
“It’s the table on which the gold cups are placed. That’s what the murals outside look like. I think that’s it. Seriously, didn’t you pay attention to the contents of the murals just now?” Hermione said softly, placing Hufflepuff’s gold cups on top. Going up, “It should be put here, yes, there is a groove here, which matches the size of the golden cup, and then put in the sacrifice, the earthworm will appear.”
Harry and Sirius looked at each other in disbelief.
But for this situation, Harry has been very familiar with it for more than six years. He knows what he should do, which is to shut his mouth and wait for Hermione’s operation. Usually, what she said at this time was right. of.
Sirius still didn’t know, he asked, “What are the sacrifices you’re talking about? I’ve never understood the diet of house-elves, Dobby, what do you like to eat?”
“Dobby is not a picky eater. A good house elf eats the food left by the master. Dobby likes to cook food, and Dobby eats whatever the master likes.” Dobby racked his brains thinking about what he liked to eat. “Now, the food that Master Ivan or Harry Potter likes is what Dobby likes.”
“Sounds good, we should go back and make a dish that Harry likes to eat,” said Sirius sarcastically.
“It’s water!” Hermione said suddenly, “I think so. In the story, the earthworm blocking the way wants the witches to prove pain like it, and the last witch is left in despair because she is worried that she will miss the fountain of good luck. Tears, the worm sipped the tears from her cheek, and the thirst was relieved, and it moved aside, it was thirsty and painful because of the lack of water, so it was the witches to prove it to it.”
