"Winter!"

The sound of brass bells clashing sounded in the quiet stone chamber.

George and Fred, who were also watching alchemy, came over and said to Brie, "That guy is coming out again, let's go, let's try." ”

After many failures, they were happy to pull Brie forward in high spirits.

The door slammed open, and through the dim candlelight inside, Brie could clearly see that it was still full of books, and a powerful barrier had been erected in front of the door, and the mischievous Fred and George had no intention of touching it.

Maybe they've experimented and suffered.

A transparent old man's soul slowly floated out from the room, his face was emaciated, his mottled face exuded a strange feeling, his gray eyes were full of scrutiny, and there was a transparent necklace hanging from his crumpled neck, which was exuding magical power.

Soul necklace?

No, that's the Philosopher's Stone!

It's nothing more than a semi-finished product......

"This is another alchemist who has been led to a dead end by the Philosopher's Stone."

Brie muttered quietly, and suddenly someone came to mind, and George and Fred had already run up to pester the soul old man.

"Master Elsie!"

Fred frolicked and chatted affectionately with George beside the old man of the soul, but the old man was unmoved, he looked at them with annoyance, and said in a cold voice the question that had not changed: "How is the soul held in the hands of the alchemist?" ”

George and Fred glanced at each other, and Fred said first: "Be a glove full of soul power!" ”

"Wrong!"

Fred shrugged and looked at George.

George said, "Create a blockade spell and lock the soul in a bottle and take it." ”

"Wrong!"

"Next time, read more books here."

George and Fred pouted, but soon George pushed Brie up.

"Don't rush to leave the old man, you can ask the well-behaved little Brie."

The soul old man glanced at the Wesley twins, full of disgust, and then looked at Brie with a critical gaze.

Finally cold, he snorted, "Slytherin... Get out of here! ”

Brie knew that the old gentleman was the original head of Gryffindor, and it just so happened that the relationship with Slytherin was extremely strained, just like Draco and Ron are now.

Legend has it that the very rustic dean would always become impulsive when he encountered Slytherin, and even infiltrated the Slytherin common room when he was a student, and did some unspeakable things to the prefect who had not yet become the Slytherin dean, almost causing the prefect to kill him.

It was also then that Slytherin set the rule that the rest of the House would not enter their common room, and every little snake was vigilant, and no one had violated this rule for hundreds of years now.

These are all recorded in a section of Hogwarts' school history, which Brie has seen.

And just when the soul old man was annoyed with Brie's distraction, Brie smiled lightly.

"Mr. Kem Box, I'm not a Slytherin student, I'm a Hogwarts student, and you're a professor at the school, aren't you?"

Box was dumbfounded, he was so angry that he hummed a soul stream from his nostrils, but he didn't refute Brie's words, and even he calmed down for a while and said, "I think of something bad when I see your robe, but you're right, I'm a professor at Hogwarts." ”

Sighing, Box asked Brie seriously, "How is the soul held in the hands of the alchemist?" ”

Same question, and the answer to this question is with Box.

"Dead alchemists can get untouchable souls."

Seeing Brie's gaze at the necklace, Box's eyes were startled.

Finally someone found out the difference in this necklace, how many years, how many little wizards have strayed here, but they can only look at the dross outside, they will never get Box's alchemy!

But that's not enough!

Box was a little more serious, and George and Fred were watching quietly, and they could tell what they were thinking when they looked at each other—and sure enough, he could answer without asking Brie if he was right.

George and Fred had also thought about throwing this issue out and asking others for help before, but learning alchemy was their own business, and if they cheated in this matter, they would definitely not be able to go far on this path after that, even if they entered the door, they would not be able to get the treasure inside.

Those are books full of knowledge, not gold gallons......

"Where does the soul go when it dies?"

Boxes continued to ask, and he had been exploring the question, but he didn't need Brie to answer correctly, he just needed Brie's thoughts on it to pique his interest.

"The source of the world, the soul constantly runs between life and death, maintaining the operation of the world, this is what the unicorn told me before he died."

Brie naturally doesn't say everything, and it's best for him to say seven points of truth and three points of falsehood.

"Oh, you witnessed the unicorn's death and talked to it!"

Oh my God, unicorns are beloved creatures of the world, and legend has it that when they die, they are taken to the most mysterious places!

Box's eyes were blazing as he stared at Brie, trembling as he continued to ask.

"Do you know what this is?"

He tugged at the necklace around his neck and looked at Brie expectantly.

"That's the last question, I'll let you in if you get it right......," he said, glancing at the Wesley twins.

"You can bring these two nuisance elves in, as long as you don't spoil the books here."

George and Fred immediately looked at Brie expectantly, and said, "My great Prince Brie, quickly say the right answer, and let the loyal Wes come in!" ”

I hope these two guys don't bother him while he's reading.

Brie said, "This is the Philosopher's Stone, sir, a half-finished product. ”

"Sure enough." Box smiled and put away the soul necklace and stepped out of the way, a flash of light flashing through the barrier around him, allowing Brie and Wesley to walk in.

This room is not large, but it is neatly arranged with books, and there is not even a trace of dust on it, and it can be seen that the owner cares for this place, which is completely different from the situation outside.

Brie thought for a moment, went out and took the book "Soul Under Alchemy" that he had just seen in his hand, and looked for the book according to the record on it.

Seeing this, Box's smile deepened.

"Clever little one, although it is not an important thing outside, there are some good books."

The boastful Boxy approached Brie, and before he could speak, he heard Brie say, "May I ask why you made the Philosopher's Stone?" ”

"Even death is not willing to let go."

This is a puzzle that Brie has always puzzled, the Philosopher's Stone represents money and immortality, but look, is this really important to these alchemists?

Seeing Brie's puzzled expression, Box's eyes darkened, or rather he was a little envious.

"I've heard that someone out there has made a Philosopher's Stone."

Box sighed and continued, "But the Philosopher's Stone is definitely not just one, it represents a rule, and immortality and money are just some of all the rules. ”

"And I'm studying the soul ......"

"When I was a student at Hogwarts, I saw a book written by Mr. Gilbert Elsie, a master alchemist from a thousand years ago and a student at the beginning of Hogwarts, and that book was on my desk, and it recorded his conjectures about alchemy and his desire for the Philosopher's Stone, and it mentioned countless wonders and tricks, and I was deeply immersed in it......"

"He was also a great wizard, and his dreams touched me very much......

"He was born a thousand years ago in a time of turmoil, when wizards were in a very bad state and wizards were banished and killed, and Mr. Elsie sought to make a philosopher's stone that represented sanctions, bringing stability to wizards and allowing Muggles and the Holy See to face justice!"

Speaking of this, Box was silent for a moment before continuing: "Mr. Elsie worked hard to make the Philosopher's Stone, and many wizards laughed at him, and as time passed, he disappeared, and the wizard also hid in a corner of the world, content with the status quo, and there was no record of him in the wizarding world, at that time I thought that book was all he had, but I found the treasure of Elsie recorded in the book, where his most precious books were hidden, and I had been looking for them. ”

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Mr. Box's face was a little awkward, and he didn't say any more, but Brie thought about it and understood the follow-up, when Box sneaked into the Slytherin common room in search of Mr. Elsie's book, looking for clues, but unfortunately what happened later was more than he expected.

For example, he hid in the prefect's private bathtub, and was bumped into by the prefect who was unclothed, and then was beaten out......

"And what kind of philosopher's stone do you want to make?"

Brie sensibly didn't mention the rest of the matter, but asked about the Philosopher's Stone.

"Oh, me."

"I am an orphan, my father and mother died because of me, and I want them back......"

"It's a stupid decision, I'm too greedy to resurrect them."

"I searched for the legendary Resurrection Stone, but when I found it, I found that it was just a joke of the Grim Reaper, which only made people indulge in falsehood and bring death to those who wore it......"

Resurrection?

Brie sighed, and among the Wesley twins who were eavesdropping next to him, Fred said: "If I make a philosopher's stone, I must be like Master Lemay, make a philosopher's stone that can turn stones into gold, and as for immortality, forget it." ”

"Haha!"

Fred was looking forward to it, while George, who was looking down and thinking next to him, asked Brie, "Little Brie, if you can make a philosopher's stone, what are you going to do?" ”

"Poof..."

Mr. Box scoffed, of course, for Fred, and Brie answered George's question at this point.

"I... I don't have anything to make it, I don't think the Philosopher's Stone will give me what I need, the rules will never be controlled, it is the power of the world...... Or that we are part of the rules, but the power of the individual is so small that we do not find ourselves mobilizing the operation of the rules. ”

Looking at Fred and George, who couldn't understand it, Brie explained simply: "You can make money out of thin air by turning stones into gold, and you can also get money by doing odd jobs yourself." ”

Install the latest version. 】

"The end result is the same, but the process is different, one easy, one difficult, but all within the rules."

"Money circulates in our hands, which means that we obey the world's money rules, and no amount of money can change a truth - you are satisfying yourself with money, which is definitely not controlling money."

This also applies to the soul, to death.

Brie had seen the rules of the will at the source of the world, and he knew that the Philosopher's Stone had only taken away a part of the power of the rules, allowing wizards to cast a single or two.

I'm afraid that there is no real magic stone in the world, it is just a stone made of it, and the lower limit of the rules obtained by grabbing it has already met all the needs of those who need it.
