Chapter 353: Can't Recall
The Centaurs are the most peculiar of the magical creatures. In Muggle history, centaurs often meant a race like the demigods. Among wizards, the centaurs themselves are one of the races that have a bad attitude towards wizards. Whether it is an elf or a goblin, they are very clear about this. The Ministry of Magic bloodbathed the fish-people at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and the biggest reaction was this humanoid magical creature.
The centaurs think highly of themselves, and on the surface they look down on wizards. The centaurs are all astronomers, and the combined trajectory of the stars in the sky can be seen in the so-called future.
In fact, the prediction of the future is not at all represented by the trajectory of some stars. Centaurs are generally short-tempered, and although they are good at bows and arrows, they are far from good at making tools.
Xie An looked through the memories of the woman and the horse with a regent, and it was all chaotic and disorderly. The woman was just fifteen years old, and of course, this was a half-adult among centaurs. Her willpower is not strong, and Xie An easily invaded the depths of her memory.
Most of these memories are chaotic and useless, there are some memories of her childhood and her parents, some memories of her friends and partners, and memories of the sacrifice of the clan, and what is buried in the deepest part of her heart is the secret of a black centaur boy in her secret clan. None of this is what Xie An wants to know. The reason why he didn't kill the two centaurs was that he suddenly remembered a very strange dream he had had.
In that dream, Xie An walked all the way to the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and the Forbidden Forest was also extremely dark, as the darkness continued to thicken, those trees turned into twisted devils, and in the deepest part of the Forbidden Forest, a huge tree that was about to wither and die was standing there.
This dream surprised Xie An very much. The reason is that Xie An has always had a hellish picture in his body, and he has not been able to rest properly for many years, let alone dream, there has never been anything. But that day, Xie An was very sure that his body did not leave the place at all, but it was a feeling of spiritual wandering.
The feeling of that night was too real, and the strange intimacy, as well as the terrible darkness around him, and the big tree that was about to die, all left a deep impression on Xie An.
He later tried to cause the dream, and he even tried the meditation basin to get the dream out of his mind, but unfortunately he found nothing, and the memory could not be retrieved from his mind at all.
After trying a lot of things to no avail, he was busy with the Tower of London during that time, and he didn't pay much attention to this matter, and the matter passed. Walking into this forbidden forest today, when he was about to kill the two horsemen, he didn't know what was going on, Xie An's mind suddenly skipped the shadow of the big tree that was about to die.
Although it was only an instant, it was enough to arouse Xie An's vigilance, you must know that at this time, the picture of hell had been completely integrated with Xie An, and Xie An was immune to any spiritual attack, but this strange picture appeared again, allowing Xie An to briefly escape from the storm of killing.
Strange in his heart, Xie An loosened his magic, the young man had already fainted, his face was purple, this woman and horse had become Xie An's target, and it was easy to succeed in her deception.
Nothing. The woman had no memory of the huge withered tree in her mind, but another thing caught Xie An's attention: the woman had participated in the sacrifice of the clan, and Xie An noticed one thing from the prayer book of the sacrifice that these horses had migrated from the deepest part of the Forbidden Forest, and they had migrated less than ten years ago. It seems that during this time, something has happened in the depths of the Forbidden Forest. It is no longer suitable for people to continue to live.
The centaurs were also reluctant to get too close to the wizards, so they were reluctant to leave the depths of the Forbidden Forest, but at the sacrificial prayer, the centaurs who presided over the sacrifice made it clear that if they did not leave the depths of the Forbidden Forest, they might face the shadow of death.
Xie An was very curious about what made these centaurs have to leave, and he turned to invade the memories of the centaur youth, and this time he found nothing, this centaur youth's memories are not as useful as this centaur man.
The power of Queen Anne's demigods can't easily peek into Xie An's spiritual world, and this picture can directly break through the blockade of the hell picture and directly present it in Xie An's mind, which in itself shows that this matter is very eye-catching.
No one wants to have something unknown lurking in their minds all the time, and although wizards have very limited knowledge of magic, wizards also know that it is not a good thing to see things that others can't.
At this time, Xie An had such a thing in his mind, how could Xie An feel at ease. It's a pity that neither horse man provided any key information. It's a good clue though.
Xie An came out of the Forbidden Forest, and he went straight to Hogsmeade. Hogsmeade had a place where he could be alone, and he had to think about it.
In the evening, Xie Ann sat alone on the couch, the second floor of the Hogsmeade clothing store, one of the Lee family's properties in Hogsmeade. Usually Luna designs clothes here, and the first floor is a shop that sells clothes.
"Andy, you've been sitting here since you're here today, what's on your mind?" Luna finished dealing with the things in the store and came to the house, wanting to see what was going on with Xie An.
Speaking of which, Xie An's current girlfriend is naturally Qiu, but Luna is Xie Na's childhood sweetheart, they have a very close childhood, and Hermione is her most important friend, and many things need Hermione's help. These three girls are all valued by Xie An.
Xie An looked up at Luna, but his eyes hadn't focused on Luna for a while. This is a strange habit of Doomsday Warriors, who tend to be very distracted, so that they can notice more danger and consume less energy. Only when it is necessary to concentrate and give it their all, will they mobilize all their forces and aim at the same goal.
"What?" Xie An tried to shift his attention to Luna's side, and after not seeing Luna for a while, she looked more temperamental. Luna was not a very charming and sexy girl, she was more simple and natural, she has been in contact with fashion during this time, and her temperament is a little more mature and capable. Today Luna passed a pair of Muggle jeans, a plaid shirt on top, her hair was casually draped, two exaggerated earrings hung from her ears, and instead of the opal necklace she had always loved, she replaced it with a simple obsidian pendant. The whole person looks energetic and not so rebellious.
"What did I say, what were you thinking?" Luna sat casually beside Xie An. Big eyes looked at Xie An. Xie An's attention had completely recovered at this time, but the darkness in his eyes had become thicker.
"I'm parsing a dream. Xie An said lightly, it was not that he was cold to Luna, but that Xie An had not recovered from that cold state of analysis for a while, and his mind was still rapidly calculating and analyzing.
"What kind of dream? It shouldn't be your own doing, right?" Luna and Xie An are intimate, and they know a little about Xie An's rarely resting, as for dreaming, Luna doesn't think that Xie An is the kind of person who will be entangled for a long time for trivial things or some other trivial things.
"I did it myself. So it's very strange. You know I've never rested, I've never dreamed of sleeping, but not long ago I had a very real dream: I dreamed that I was in the depths of the Forbidden Forest and saw a big tree that was about to die. ”
As soon as Xie An's words fell, Luna was already stunned. "You wouldn't dream of a burning tree, would you?" asked Luna hurriedly.
"It's not a burning tree, it's a big tree that is about to die, but it looks so dark that I can't see clearly in the moonlight, and I don't know if it's burned. Xie An described it again.
Luna bit her lip and said, "If it's a burning tree, it's troublesome." ”
"What's the trouble?" Xie An asked.
"This burning giant tree has been recorded in the tree of "Poet Pidou", which is not a good thing, and seems to mean the ** of the gods. Luna hesitated for a moment.
"What?" Xie An didn't understand at all, what kind of weird meaning is this? Besides, isn't "The Poet" a children's book?
"I also heard from my father, who said that most of the stories in the poetry books he had studied actually had very dark implications, and some even covered up the secrets of huge scandals. Among them, he told me that one of the stories that recorded the gods fighting for beautiful women, which eventually caused a fire and burned most of the gods, that is, the story of the fire of desire and the burning of the tree. ”
Xie An frowned, this didn't make sense at all, and Luna's father was also an extremely unreliable wizard, Xie An didn't believe it. He said: "I dreamed not of a thunder and fire burning a tree, but of a big tree that was about to die. ”
"What kind of tree is that? Luna asked.
Just as Xie An couldn't extract that memory, trying to describe the specific characteristics of the tree, Xie An seemed to feel blurry again, and the only thing he could remember seemed to be the spreading darkness, the depths of the Forbidden Forest like a mist.
"I can't describe it, it seems to be some kind of curse. The tree was very tall, but it seemed to be a mass of darkness as if it had sucked all the light around it into the darkness. Xie An tried to separate the big tree from the darkness around him, only remembering the details of the big tree, but it was useless, he still couldn't remember most of it.
Luna frowned and said, "The magic that you can't even remember, I'm afraid the origin of this tree is not simple." "You know, magic is different from other arts, warriors need to train muscles, swordsmen need to train speed, and wizards rely entirely on meditation and thinking. In addition to the need for a strong will to control magic, the average powerful wizard needs a smart and appropriate mind to construct and store magic. This means that powerful wizards have a strong memory and willpower. Ordinary spiritual spells, for those powerful wizards, the effect is not obvious. Not to mention a top wizard like Xie An.
But Xie An now has such a vision in his mind for no reason, which shows that there is an extremely powerful force that affects Xie An's center. You must know that in addition to the receptive mind, the wizarding world can also specialize in creating illusion magic. Xie An couldn't be sure for a moment that there was something wrong with those memories.
Xie An nodded and said, "What I'm more worried about now is whether someone has tampered with my memory. ”
"Probably not, you haven't changed much during this time, and besides, don't you remember your previous memories in detail now?" The details are usually in a very noticeable place in the memory, but those real details cannot be easily completed by any magic. Because that's too much trouble.
Xie An also knew this way, he was trying to find out what the problem was, so he thought about it so that he seemed a little cold to Luna. Naturally, Luna didn't care. She grew up with Shea, and some of his habits Luna had known for a long time. She doesn't care.
"Maybe it's not somewhere else, it's a strange situation in your own mind. Luna said.
Xie An thought for a while and said, "Has anyone been to the depths of the Forbidden Forest?" This kind of question Hermione might get an accurate answer, and if she asked Luna, she didn't know too well.
"I've heard of fifth-graders who have sneaked to the Forbidden Forest. ”
"Looks like I'll have to make a trip to the Forbidden Forest. "Shea's picture of hell has never been told to anyone, so Luna Hermione doesn't know where Shean is now. If Xie An hadn't been able to find a suitable way to control the second-class magic power in his body, his destruction magic power would overflow at this time.
"What are you doing there? The Forbidden Forest is really dangerous. Luna hurriedly tried to stop it. It's a pity that she doesn't know Xie An's plan and the extent of imminence, otherwise she wouldn't have stopped it.
"I had to go. "Xie An is not ready to tell Luna the real situation now, Queen Anne relies on her demigod strength to know Xie An's predicament, there is no way to do it. If they were to tell Cho and Hermione, they would be limited in their help, and they would be worried.
Luna looked at Xie An's bright and clear eyes, knowing that Xie An had probably thought about this a long time ago. It's hard to change for a while. Luna had no choice but to say, "You better know more about the Forbidden Forest, I remember that the school library at Hogwarts has a lot of notes about the Forbidden Forest, we can go and see the specific situation." ”
Xie An nodded, the situation here is very complicated, and the situation involved is unbelievable. The only one who knows all about it is Queen Anne. However, it is a good note to learn about the Forbidden Forest through the library's notes. Thinking of this, Xie An immediately thought of Hermione, and he didn't have time to see her during this time, so he didn't know if she could help.
