Chapter 67: Riddles
They opened the door, and for a moment they couldn't bear to look at what it was, knowing that it was set up by Snape!, but to their surprise, there was nothing strange in the room, and there were seven bottles of different shapes lined up on it. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Snape's magic," Harry said nervously, "what are we going to do?"
Louis felt that Harry was especially scared of this level, and it seemed that Snape had tormented him so badly that he couldn't help but be scared when he knew that this level was Snape.
"Relax Harry, if Snape were to steal the Philosopher's Stone, he wouldn't be left with a difficult level to crack. Louis said indifferently.
Harry still looked trembling, however, as soon as they crossed the threshold, a flame rose behind them to seal the doorway. The color of this flame is unusual, it is purple, and it is very dazzling. And just as they wanted to quickly pass ahead, a flame also ignited in front of them, and the flame was still black, and the four of them were trapped in the middle.
"Look!" Hermione grabbed a piece of parchment that had been placed on the table. Then she reads:
Danger is in sight, safety is in the rear, and there are two of us who can help you.
Drink them down, one leads you forward, and the other sends you back to where you came from.
Two were filled with nettle wine, and three were killers, waiting in line.
Choose, unless you want to be delayed forever.
We also provide four clues:
First, no matter how cunning the poison may be, they are all on the left side of the nettle;
Second, the contents of the bottles on the left and right ends are different, and neither of them will be useful to you if you want to move forward;
Thirdly, you will find that the bottles vary in size, and there is no hiding death in the giants and gnomes;
Fourth, the second on the left and the second on the right, although they look different, do taste the same.
Hermione let out a long sigh of relief, and Harry saw that Hermione actually laughed, but he would never laugh if it were him, these things had completely confused him.
"It's wonderful. Hermione said, "It's not magic, it's logical reasoning, it's a riddle." Many great magicians don't have the slightest ability to reason logically, and they have to be trapped here forever."
"Oh yes, and then we're stuck here forever too. Ron said impatiently, "If many great magicians don't know, how can we?"
"Oh, don't keep thinking that everyone else's IQ is the same as yours all the time. Louis said as he poured a small vial of pale blue potion into his mouth, "Seven bottles, three of which are poisoned wine, two are wine, and one will allow us to pass safely." Hermione, I think you can fix this, right? I'm having a big head right now, and I'm going to bother you. Louis's face was flushed after drinking the blue potion, but his brow furrowed as if he were in pain.
Without waiting for Ron to say anything, Hermione said, "Give me a minute, I think I can unravel it." ”
Hermione read the note a few times, and then she kept talking to herself, pointing at the bottle.
"I see!" she finally clapped her hands excitedly, "this smallest bottle will help us get the Philosopher's Stone through the flames in front of us!"
"It's only enough for one person, less than a sip. Harry looked at the bottle Hermione was pointing to and said.
"Which bottle will bring us back safely?" said Louis, rubbing his head, feeling very uncomfortable.
Hermione gestured to a round bottle on the far right.
