In fact, as the boat starved forward, the water became brighter and brighter, and a faint green light came through the bottom of the lake, and Fan Lin suddenly understood why there was a glowing green light from a distance.

These rays of light come from the Yin Corpses at the bottom of the lake, and the closer you get to the island in the middle of the lake, the denser the Yin Corpses become.

Fan Lin saw that his scalp was numb, the light became clearer and clearer, and there were more and more Yin corpses lying at the bottom of the lake, some of the clothes on their bodies had rotted, but their appearance had not changed, from the moment they became Yin corpses, these corpses had been permanently solidified in this state, including flesh and soul.

Don't look at the fact that these corpses are quiet now, Van Lin promises that as long as something outside the boat touches the water, in the next second, these terrifying things will completely wake up and turn into bloodthirsty beasts......

Uh, that doesn't seem like the right description, but I should say that the Yin Corpse Family welcomes you to join?

"Be careful, don't touch the water!" Dumbledore reminded again.

The boat moved forward slowly, and unlike the bottom of the water, the surface of the water seemed to be foggy, so that no one knew where they had gone.

"It's almost there. Dumbledore suddenly said happily. Just when the lapels were wondering how Dumbledore had found out that it was almost there, the change in scenery made him agree with Dumbledore's words.

It was obvious enough, the green light finally grew larger, and after a few minutes, the boat stopped, and lightly bumped into something, which Van Lin didn't see at first, but when he jumped onto the platform to restore his original form and raised the shining wand stone, he found that they had come to a small island in the middle of the lake, which was a smooth rock.

"Be careful not to touch the water. ”

When Hermione jumped out of the boat, Dumbledore told him again that the island was not as big as Dumbledore's office, but a flat, open dark rock, with nothing but green light on it, and the green light was even more abundant when you got closer.

Van Lin squinted, at first he thought it was a lamp or something, and then he realized that the light was coming from a stone basin that looked like a meditation basin, resting on a pedestal.

Dumbledore walked over, and several men followed. Shoulder to shoulder, they looked down inside. The basin is filled with an emerald green liquid that emits phosphorescence.

"What is this?" asked Hermione in a low voice.

"I'm not sure. Dumbledore said. "Still, something more disturbing than blood and corpses. Dumbledore rolled up the sleeve of his slightly wizened hand, his long thin fingertips reaching for the surface of the potion.

"Professor, no, don't touch ——!"

"I can't touch it," Dumbledore said, smiling reluctantly. "See? I can't get any closer. You try. ”

Intently, Fan Lin tried to reach for the stone basin, wanting to touch the potion. He was blocked by an invisible barrier, unable to get any closer. No matter how hard he pushed, his fingers could only touch the tough air.

"Get out of the way. Dumbledore said, raising his staff and making a series of complex movements on the surface of the potion, silently reading something. Nothing happened, except that the potion seemed to be a little brighter.

"The Horcrux was supposed to be in here. Van Lin said

"Oh yes. Deng Liduo leaned closer to the stone basin to inspect it. Van Lin saw his face reflected in the smooth surface of the green potion.

"How do I get it? It doesn't seem like there's a way to put your hand into this potion, it can't be poured out, separated, sucked up, shaped, cast a spell, or changed in any other way. Almost dazed, Dumbledore raised his wand and spun it in the air, then grabbed a crystal wine glass that had been conjured out of nowhere. "I can only conclude that this potion is for drinking. ”

"Oh, yes," said Kreacher, with tears in his face, "that's what Master Regulus did, scooping out all the potions in a cup and drinking them......

As he spoke, Kreacher covered his face and began to cry again.

"I'm glad we got the contents out, even though it's ......"

"Professor!"

"I'm sorry, Van Lin, I should have said that. In fact, Tom didn't want to kill anyone who came to this island right away," Dumbledore corrected himself. "He'll let that person live long enough to find out how he got through the barrier he's set up and, most importantly, why they're emptying the basin. Don't forget that Voldemort believed that he was the only one who knew about the Soul Lock. ”

"But Regulus knew about it, too. Sirius said, "And, if not enough to be fatal, why did Regulus ......"

"Undoubtedly," Dumbledore finally said, "this potion must have had some effect that would make the Horcrux inaccessible to others. It can paralyze people, make people forget what they're here for, create intense pain to distract me, or make me incapacitated in some other way. As Kreacher said, the melting of the body, the extreme thirst, in my opinion, are just some basic manifestations. ”

As he spoke, Dumbledore reached for the crystal cup in his hand towards the stone basin.

Soon, a glass of emerald green liquid appeared in the crystal cup, and the magic that had prevented them from reaching out had magically disappeared at this moment.

Dumbledore looked at it, then poured the liquid from the cup on the ground, but the thank you potion quickly disappeared, and the liquid in the stone basin did not decrease in the slightest.

"They went back. "The potions have reappeared in the stone basin. ”

"It's similar to summoning magic, and there's no doubt that only flesh and blood can isolate this kind of induction and recall. Dumbledore felt it, but the deep disappointment on his face could not hide it.

"So, these potions make people have a physiological instinct to crave, and the lake has been enchanted, and once you go to the lake to drink, these yin corpses will wake up and attack their enemies at the first time. ”

"But, Professor Dumbledore, if that's all we can do, we can use magic......"

"It won't work out, Voldemort has planned it, and besides, I can sense the repulsion of water by magic here, and some of the vanishing charms, and there is only one way to get water on this island. If you don't believe me, we can give it a try. Fan Lin took out his wand and said softly, "Clear water is like a spring!"

Clear water came out of the end of his wand and landed on the ground, splashing in all directions, but vanishing in an instant. The water that fell to the ground evaporated strangely, and the speed was amazing. And, as if there was an invisible force, from the bottom to the top of the ground, the clear water that was gushing outward at the end of the wand in Fan Lin's hand quickly flowed back at a speed visible to the naked eye.
