Chapter 9: Burned Down

Seong-cheol's hand slowly swiped through the air, as if trying to find and grasp something intangible. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

β€œοΌβ€ After a few seconds, he suddenly stretched out his hand clearly. He clasped his hands together and grabbed something in the air that no one else could see. Seungzhe moved towards the lake, still dangling his hand in the air, holding his wand in the other, and tapping his fist with the tip of his wand.

Immediately, a thick green copper chain suddenly emerged from the depths of the lake and rushed towards Xingzhe's clenched fist. Seung-cheol tapped the chain with his wand, and it began to slide through his fist like a snake, coiling in a heap on the ground, and the sound of tintin-dong clanged against the rock wall, making a loud echo. The chain dragged something up from the bottom of the pitch-black lake. The bow of a small boat suddenly emerged from the surface of the lake like a ghost, glowing green like a chain, and floated towards the shore where everyone was standing, barely sending a ripple.

"How do you know it's there?" Sirius asked, surprised.

"I see," said Xingzhe, and with a soft thud, the boat crashed into the shore, "sometimes.... I can see the obvious marks."

"This ...... Is this boat safe? ”

"Oh, I think it's safe. Voldemort needed a way to secure his own obscene life so as not to anger the guys he had placed in the lake. ”

"So, if we cross the lake in Voldemort's boat, those guys in the water won't do anything to us, will they?"

"I think we have to be mentally prepared that if they find out that we are not Voldemort, they will definitely attack us. So far, though, we've been doing well. They allowed us to get the boat up from the lake. ”

"But why would they let us do that?" The little wolf asked, unable to shake the image that came to his mind: when they were far away from the shore, many tentacles would stick out of the dark water.

"Voldemort firmly believes that only a skilled wizard can discover the boat." "I think he's ready to take the risk of letting someone else discover the boatβ€”it seems almost impossible to him, and he knows that he's setting up obstacles ahead that only he can cross." We'll see if he's right later. ”

Sirius looked down at the boat. A very small boat indeed.

"It doesn't seem to be for three people to sit on, can it eat the weight of a few of us? Wouldn't the two of us weigh too much together? ”

Seongzhe smiled.

"Don't worry, you can ride over alone, I have other ways to cross the river."

β€œ......”

Sirius climbs aboard. Coiled up the chain and stacked it at the bottom of the boat.

"Be careful not to touch the lake!" Xingzhe said.

The boat set off at once, and there was silence all around, save for the soft rustle of the bow piercing through the water. The boat was moving on its own, without Sirius moving its hands, and there seemed to be an invisible rope pulling it towards the green light in the middle of the lake. Soon, the rock walls of the cave were out of sight, and he felt as if he was on the sea, only there were no waves around.

He turned his head to see that Xingzhe was standing on the long sword, floating in the air.

Sirius was a little puzzled, could it be.... What kind of flying prop is this? But... No one thinks of a sword as a flying prop, and... Didn't Voldemort leave any magic behind to deal with some situations?

As they advanced, they saw a number of corpses, and Kreacher watched them from the center.

The glow of the wand swept across the water again, and this time they saw a dead man lying on his back a few inches above the water: his eyes were misty as if they were covered with cobwebs, and his hair and robes swirled around him like smoke.

Rao is Sirius himself, and he also finds these dead bodies particularly disgusting.

He turned his face to look at the green light, and the boat was still unstoppably heading towards it.

"It's almost there." Xingzhe thought to himself.

Sure enough, the green light seemed to finally get bigger and brighter, and after a few minutes, the boat gently bumped into something and stopped.

"Be careful not to touch the lake." Seong-cheol warned again.

The island was about the size of Dumbledore's office: a flat, black slab of stone that was empty except for the green light source. Now that I look closer, the green light is much brighter. Sirius squinted at it, at first he thought it was some kind of lamp, then he saw green light coming from a stone basin that resembled a meditation basin with a pedestal underneath.

They approached the stone basin, and Kreacher followed. They stood side by side, looking inside the stone basin. A basin full of emerald green liquid, glowing with phosphorescence.

Kreacher was scared.

"Is this ......," the little Sirius asked.

"That's Voldemort's trick, and Regulus's locket is inside." Xingzhe said.

Sirius suddenly remembered what Kreacher had said to him before he set off.

"I'd like to see if there's a way to get this liquid out..."Xingzhe thought about it, holding his cheek with one hand.

"No need." Sirius said, "I'll do it." ”

Xingzhe was stunned, and even Kreacher was a little surprised.

"I've been looking at the wrong people.... Wormtail, my brother .... If drinking these things is painful... I think I deserve it. ”

He made up his mind, stepped forward, and gulped down the contents.

Sirius's body immediately twitched, but he didn't seem to care about the pain at all, even if he was forced to stop because his body couldn't stand it, he would open his eyes angrily and continue.

Xingzhe looked at Sirius, and was suddenly frightened by his spirit.

The meditation basin bottomed out, and the locket was revealed.

Sirius drank all of them, and he spread them on the floor, and Xingzhe picked up the locket and pointed his wand to his mouth, muttering the words.

"Water Oath!"

A large lump of water rushed into Sirius's face like a faucet in a fire extinguisher, and he drank frantically, relieving his pain.

A slimy, white hand stretched out the surface of the lake, which was no longer smooth as a mirror, but was stirring violently. Everywhere came the head and hands of Bai Sensen out of the black water, men, women, children, all with sunken, non-visual eyes, floating towards the rocks: a large mass of dead bodies emerged from the dark waters.

"Mixed Yuan is inextricably linked," Xingzhe shouted, and countless green silks flew out and surrounded them.

"Kreacher, take good care of Sirius!" Xingzhe spoke, and Kreacher carried out the order, and he ran to Sirius's side, protecting him by his side.

The Yin corpses came out of the lake by instinct, they were unconscious, and continued to force step by step, but none of them could get close to Xingzhe's body, they seemed to be restrained by something, like a huge net.

At this time, all the Yin corpses in front of them were concentrated, and they all floated into the air, and Xingzhe's green silk lifted them all. The front one is raised, and the one behind is also raised, which is like catching a fish.

The corpses in all directions have all been fished up, and all the corpses hidden in the lake have been fished up, and no new corpses have appeared.

"Kreacher, use your powers!" Xingzhe said, "Find Regulus!" ”

Kreacher's eyes widened at his old face, and he looked very seriously, not missing a single detail, and at last, he saw something.

"Kreacher has found the young master!"

He lifted his hand and pointed in one direction. "Right there!"

Seungzhe saw a swollen corpse with bubbles, and with a wave of his wand, Regulus fell out and landed aside.

Sirius was back to normal at this point, and when he saw the corpse of Regulus, he ran frantically and rushed towards it.

"Regulus! I'll take you home...."

Xingzhe's wand swung at Regulus, and Regulus, who had been still in an attacking state, returned to normal and turned into a real corpse.

"Rest in peace," he muttered to himself, while Kreacher and Sirius cried as they clung to the corpse of Regulus.

Sei-cheol's eyes were on the corpses in the air, he had done the same thing to the nasty spiders in his first year at Hogwarts, and now he was going to do it again.

Unlike in the past, now he is stronger and more youthful...

"Oh my God! Fire! Burn! Original! ”

Unlike waving his wand and reciting a spell, Xingzhe's release this time was much more terrifying, and he used a stroke to write these four big characters in the air.

These big characters are so dazzling in the dark hole, like a fire, these four words themselves are the source of fire, every stroke, horizontal and vertical, are burning with raging fire!

The corpses crashed into each other, dizzily trying to escape the flames, just like the fish that struggled to survive in their nets while fishing in the deep sea.

Xingzhe's wand moved, and four big characters rushed around.

Suddenly, there was no more darkness in the cave, because the sky-high fire illuminated the cave!

The fire burned the corpses and kept making a pig-killing cry, the cry was quite terrible, not human language at all, just an instinctive roar.

The fire would not stop, it would only stop after they were burned to ashes, and Xingzhe took Sirius and Kreacher, in the midst of a burst of fire, and left the cold cave....
