Chapter Ninety-Five: Lolo Grass
"Forget it, the Philosopher's Stone ......" Brandi felt cold just by imagining the sea of corpses and blood, how dare he follow Lemay to learn that, besides, the generation of the Philosopher's Stone can't be copied - that philosopher's stone was not made by Lemay himself.
So he pursed his lips and showed a look of disgust.
"I'm afraid I'll never see anything like the Philosopher's Stone again in my life. Moreover, it is actually very clear on the envelope, you have to think carefully - not to mention that I personally think I don't have any alchemy talent, and the only thought I have after thinking about it is to give love to whom, and I don't want to take the initiative to jump into the pit. I can see it now...... Professor Dumbledore had no ill intentions, but the candy he gave out was definitely not something that could be swallowed casually. ”
Brandi suddenly thought of something, and he looked at Hermione. "Speaking of which, could this be reserved for you? I don't think any of us are better suited to study alchemy than you......"
Hermione really wanted to pounce for a moment, but her reason controlled her curiosity at the critical moment. She shook her head vigorously. "I'm really tempted, but if Dumbledore really wanted me to go, he wouldn't have made such a big circle—it must have had its uses, but it wasn't there yet."
At Hermione's request, Brandi had to put the letter away closely, and the three of them combed through their belongings again. While Ron was examining the gadgets he had gotten from the twins, the sound of running could be heard on the empty path, and Harry was back.
"Almost." He panted and took off the cloak of invisibility and handed it to Hermione, "I've just seen them all, and now it seems that there is only one room in the manor with the lights on, and Brandi is right, there shouldn't be many people in the manor now." ”
……………………
The black barren mountains in the distance, the silent woods on both sides, in the dimness, the gloomy path stretches all the way to the gate of the manor, like the thin and long letter of a snake, and the whole Petil Manor has become the giant python that chooses people to devour, quietly waiting for those adventurers who kill themselves.
At this time, it was already early in the morning, and the door was naturally locked, judging from the pattern on the door, even if it could be opened with a lock opening spell, I am afraid that it would trigger the dense runes on the door clean. So they had to bypass the main entrance and stop at the fence on one side. Behind these metal fences appeared to be a shack, and the dwellings were at the other end, not looking like someone was keeping vigil.
"The question is, how do we get over it, just turn it over?" Harry stared at the railing, which was seven or eight feet high, eager to try.
The railing was carved with tiny symbols, and Hermione tapped her wand on it, and a faint ripple appeared on the surface. "There's a warning rune on it, and we'd better not try to break it with a spell. As for the direct flip - you can try, but I warn you beforehand, it's a magic trap, and it seems to be poisoned. ”
Hermione unceremoniously pointed to the rows of blue-glowing spikes at the top of the railing, and Harry's lower body tightened in honesty.
"In that case, it's okay to walk over it."
Brandi said, and began to try to use the Transfiguration technique to lift the dirt under his feet, which was much more difficult and slower than usual, but it was not too terrifying burden for Brandi, who had not cared about the consumption of mana for a long time - about three or four minutes, the stone bar deformed from the dirt finally successfully passed over the fence under Brandi's control, and it bent at a great angle, and slowly lifted it to the ground on the opposite side like a rainbow in the dull sound of collision.
The four of them walked along the narrow bridge deck and crossed carefully.
"Honestly, it's the first time I've seen a private dwelling with magical runes engraved on every railing of the fence..."Ron couldn't help but sigh as they stepped safely on the ground. How rich the Parvati family must be? Heh - even the cat's house is bigger than mine! ”
They passed through the edge of the row of shacks, which were divided into a dozen or so compartments, each about half the size of the Hogwarts boys' dormitory, and contained a black kitten, which stood up as they passed, staring at the revealing trio.
Strange, they don't seem to be afraid of strangers at all, but they still seem a little excited?
Is this a lot of masturbation by the shovel officer?
"Let's go, don't forget that Newt mentioned that there are some animals called Madago!" Brandi glanced at them curiously, and hurried forward, now was not the time to delve into, and he always felt that the atmosphere here was not quite right—had they infiltrated too easily.
But until they entered the vestibule, they could not see the so-called madago.
The greenery here is shaped like a variety of magical animals, and the dark shadows at night are like real things. A huge statue stood in the middle of the vestibule, with two pairs of arms and three eyes, dressed in animal skins, and holding forks, conchs, jugs, and drums in four hands—of course, that's not the point, the point is that it's made entirely of gold.
It was a very difficult test of will, and they finally got rid of the glittering golden light in their eyes and came to the foot of the three-story building of the Petyr family. Don't look at the three-storey building in Petil's house, but it is a full-enclosed structure (i.e., a hollow structure, with a central garden in the middle), the house is almost the size of Hogwarts, and at a glance, it is densely packed with windows, and God knows it will be Parvati's room!
Just when everyone was hiding in the corner, Harry suddenly had an idea.
"By the way, Hermione, aren't you going to use that humanoid creature tracking charm!" He suddenly became excited, and whispered into the air, "We can find something that the silly girl used before, and let it take us to her room!" ”
"Impossible, Harry." Hermione said, "We don't have items like that to mark. ”
"How could it not be? Isn't her hair ring still there—" Harry's eyes widened as he looked at Brandi and saw that the latter was smiling wryly at him, his neck empty.
"By the time Beauxbatons was in Beauxbatons, the hair band was completely broken." Brandi spread his hands.
"And even if you still have that hair ring, it won't do anything. The premise of the tracking spell must be that the object has a sufficiently recognizable smell and trace, not to mention that the silly girl has been separated from us for two or three months, even two weeks is enough to choke. ”
Brandi was stunned for a moment.
"Wait, two weeks?" He said quickly, "So is it okay to say that it is less than two weeks?" ”
Hermione gave him a strange look, "It depends on whether the object has been touched repeatedly by others, if not touched by others." Her mouth suddenly grew, "Hey! You don't think ......?"
"Yes," Brandi said as she scrambled her bag and pulled the stack of letters out of it, finding the last one with number 11. "Why do we have to track Parvati - isn't her sister the same?"
After the spell, the envelope fluttered and flew with them, carrying them around a corner of the house. Brandi was clinging to the back of the letter, her heart pounding nervously. Padma was even a betrayal of her sister's beliefs, and she couldn't have failed to tell them about the silly girl, and maybe help them find the portkey in the manor that could teleport directly to Kailash.
It's stupid, why didn't we think of it in the first place!
With that in mind, they slowed down and stared eagerly at the envelope floating in mid-air—it wasn't moving laterally, but straight up, meaning that Padma was on a certain floor in this direction, which floor would it be?
The envelope finally ceased to rise, and it slowly approached the hidden window, sliding through the crack in it.
Brandi's smile froze for a moment.
It can't be such a coincidence, right......
That room is the only room in the entire manor that is still lit!
………………
It's already May, and it's hot India, and there's no way anyone would want to live with the fire in their dreams. This means that most of the people in the upper room are awake.
Padma? She didn't sleep at night, was she worried about Parvati?
Brandi didn't dare pack the ticket, he wasn't even sure if there would be only one person on it. So of course, they didn't dare to sneak up to the third floor and knock on her door, but if they didn't, they wouldn't have been able to observe the situation inside...... It is simply impossible to deform the ground more than three meters high without collapsing in such a suppressed environment.
What should I do?
He frowned, looking around for something he might be able to use. His gaze swept across the flower beds, gutters, and lawns, over a few black cats that had slipped out of nowhere—and he suddenly noticed the expressions of Harry and Ron. They looked smug as if it was only Brandi himself who was at a loss?
"Huh? Have you figured out a solution? Brandi asked curiously.
Hermione sighed weakly in the void.
Harry and Ron glanced at each other, and smiled tacitly. Ron pulled out a small, opaque bag from his backpack and opened the mouth of the bag, revealing a dozen broad bean-sized things that emitted a faint green glow. The familiar little thing made Brandi stomach ache...... Because they've been spending a whole month with them this semester.
"How could you even think of bringing this stuff here?" Brandi was dumbfounded, "Besides, they're probably not strong enough to support a person's weight." ”
"Then it depends on who cultivated it~" Ron proudly showed a mouthful of white teeth, and the corners of his mouth were grinning under the roots of his ears. "This is a new product that George Fred tested in-house, and it took me a lot of effort to get it from them! Tell me, how do you want to compensate me for my hard work? ”
Brandi's face was expressionless. "Like-minded ......"
"Deal!" Fearing that Brandi would change his mind, Ron immediately agreed, happily taking all the seeds out of the bag and burying them in the ground directly below Padma's room, before winking at Harry. Poor Harry didn't know how dirty the py deal they had done in just two words, and he was still stupidly counting Ron for money when he was sold—he raised his wand and whispered.
"Fluorescent flickering."
A faint white light illuminated the dim corner, dim, like a flashlight running low.
But that's enough.
The ground suddenly began to squirm slightly, and then a small hole was broken. More than a dozen emerald green seedlings are breaking through the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye – they are quickly growing to the length of a small arm, and their growth rate is accelerating. "Bang Bang", constantly pulling out new young leaves, these Lolo grasses that will grow wildly at the sight of light extend up the wall, and the branches and leaves dig deep into the masonry wall.
"Shocked, what did the twins do to this batch of grass seeds?" Brandy's eyes widened as she watched as the plant grew taller and taller, closing the windows on the second floor. "Did they say a piercing spell to the grass seeds?"
"Huh? It seems like a better idea, Brandy—" Ron said in surprise, "Fred, they just soaked the grass seeds in the steel mixture for a day. But it doesn't look like it works? ”
In less than five minutes, Luo Luocao had already invaded the window sill on the third floor with an unstoppable momentum, and firmly embedded a part of its own blades.
"Almost," Ron sprinkled the white powder on the roots of the Lolo grass from his other hand, and they twitched violently before never moving again.
The Lolo grass that had been transformed by the steel mixture was no longer as weak as it had been, and Brandy tugged at their dark green blades of grass, finding that the pull felt like pulling another sturdy twine. So he relented and asked Harry to help them downstairs with the wind, while he climbed up with the blades of Lolo grass - he poked his head out of the window and looked into the room on the third floor.
"Padma!?"
He subconsciously screamed.
At a glance, Brandi saw that in the brightly lit room, the girl was lying quietly on the fluffy and soft bed, with an envelope floating beside her.
Brandy hurriedly opened the hidden window, slipped in, and ran to the girl's side in three steps and two steps.
"Padma, Padma! Wake up, I have a question for you! ”
"She's not going to wake up, little one - except for your weapons!"
The force of the impact came from his back, and Brandi could no longer hold the wand in his hand, and it flew high and fell to the floor.
A piece of cold ice slipped into his stomach, and a bone-chilling chill filled his body, there were other people in this room!?
Brandi shuddered and slowly turned away.
In the corner by the window, a middle-aged man was sitting on the couch, looking at him with a smile on his face. "I thought the letter was just a prank, but I didn't expect you to come all the way here. I've been waiting for you for a long time, Mr. Barton, the best friend of my daughter who has always been in her heart. ”
