"It was indeed the first time I had ever met a magician."

Tang Sen said calmly: "But in the picture of the future that I have foreseen, this person has appeared countless times. ”

"I couldn't help but wonder what kind of person he would occupy such an important position in the future, so I chose a safe time to come, and that was when he came to the Leaky Cauldron."

Dumbledore quickly asked, "Future?" What will magicians do in the future? ”

Townsend shook his head and said, "Professor Dumbledore, the future is not static, especially in the distant future, when I say a prophecy, it may not bring a good change, but it may be another disaster. ”

"So, forgive me, I can't reveal the future easily."

Dumbledore looked disappointed, but nodded understandingly, "I believe Professor Tang will make the right choice at the right time, just like the prophecy you made in class last week." ”

"Of course." "As a soothsayer, I must hope that the future will go in a good direction, and it is the natural duty of a soothsayer to remind everyone of the impending calamities and to stop evil people such as the mysterious man from wreaking havoc. ”

Speaking of this, Tang Sen paused for a moment, and his face became serious: "Actually, after I made that prophecy, I did several divination attempts against the mysterious man, you know, in order to prevent his revenge. ”

"Then, I did find something that might help you."

Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, the topic about the magician that he had planned to continue was interrupted, and he realized that the other party was deliberately changing the subject, but he really couldn't decide on this topic.

So Dumbledore relinquished the initiative of the conversation and asked, "What did you find?" ”

"The secret of the immortality of the mysterious man, Professor Dumbledore."

Dumbledore's beard twitched, and his eyes sharpened.

He knew that Voldemort had been resurrected, and he knew that Voldemort at this time might not be his opponent with an Elder Wand, but he didn't go directly to the other party's trouble, just because he had concerns.

Worried about Voldemort's resurrection, and by that time, he might not be able to stop it anymore.

So he has been searching, looking for a way to kill the other party completely, he already has some guesses, but there is no way to confirm all this, and what Tang Sen said at the moment is exactly what he desperately wants to know.

"Please continue, Professor Tang."

"A kind of magic, very evil black magic." Tang Sen said slowly: "This kind of magic can split the soul of a wizard into a piece, and then store it on a certain item, as long as that item is not destroyed, then the wizard will not die completely." ”

"And this kind of object that holds the soul is often called a Horcrux."

Dumbledore fell into deep thought, and he muttered, "Horcrux. So, that's why Tom didn't die, and it seems that the diary from a few years ago was also "

"Tom Riddle's Diary." Tang Sen said: "That's right, it's also one of the Horcruxes of the mysterious people. ”

"One?" Dumbledore looked up.

"The mystery man is not content to split his soul only once. He tried to split seven times, and of course, splitting souls was not for nothing, and in the process, his countenance became more and more distorted, his emotions became colder, and his spirit became more and more crazy. ”

"He sacrificed his sanity in exchange for immortality."

"So, Tom made seven Horcruxes." Dumbledore's face became solemn: "In other words, unless all seven Horcruxes are destroyed, otherwise, you can't completely kill him." ”

"That's right." Tang Sen nodded: "He hid those Horcruxes in what he thought was the safest place, and even I couldn't tell where they were." ”

Dumbledore's eyes lit up.

"Professor Tang, that is, you know the location of at least part of the Horcruxes?"

"Yes, Professor Dumbledore." "I know where they are, but I don't have the ability to get them," Townsend said. ”

He sighed and said, "After all, I'm just a soothsayer, and I don't have the strength to fight the mystery people, let alone destroy those Horcruxes. ”

"This is my duty, Professor Tang." Dumbledore was relieved, "Fighting evil is not something that can be done by one person, and your divination has played a vital role, even far more so than strength. ”

He asked impatiently, "Where are they?" I mean, what are the items? ”

"Voldemort believes that ordinary objects do not deserve to be his Horcruxes." Townsend replied, "So, in addition to the diary that has been destroyed, his other horcruxes are very famous items in the wizarding world. ”

"All I have ever divined are two Horcruxes."

"The first is the ancestral ring of the Gaunt family."

Dumbledore was stunned again and muttered, "The Gaunts? I remember that Tom had the blood of this family in his veins. ”

He fell into deep thought, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Professor Tang, I remembered some things from the past. ”

"At that time, I was the one who brought Tom out of the orphanage and brought him to Hogwarts, and unfortunately I looked away and didn't notice the evil thoughts in his heart, which led to so many tragedies"

"Where's that ring?"

"It's hidden in the old Gaunt family's house." When Tang Sen said this, he suddenly said: "Actually, when divining this Horcrux, I also had an unexpected gain. ”

"That ring, in addition to being a Horcrux of a mysterious person, has a more recent origin-"

Townsend paused, "On top of it is inlaid with one of the legendary deathly hallows weapons, the Resurrection Stone. ”

Dumbledore stood up abruptly, "Are you sure?" ”

"I'm pretty sure if my divination isn't disturbed." Tang Sen spread his hands and said, "Actually, this doesn't need to be too surprising, in my opinion, the resurrection stone obviously doesn't have the ability to bring people back to life as in the legend, otherwise, I don't think the mysterious person needs to go to great lengths to make Horcruxes." ”

"It's enough for him to use the Resurrection Stone directly."

He continued, "I saw the Resurrection Stone in the hands of the magician from the future picture, and now it seems that he has not yet obtained the Resurrection Stone. However, when I tell you where the Resurrection Stone is, the future has changed, and perhaps the Resurrection Stone will never fall into his hands again. ”

Dumbledore did not reply to Townsend's words, he seemed a little distracted, and even began to pace around the room unconsciously.

"Professor Dumbledore?"

It wasn't until Townsend opened his mouth to remind him that he came back to his senses.

"I'm sorry. I was reminded of some of the past. He gave him an imperceptible look of sadness: "You're right, there is no stone in the world that brings people back to life, I. . . I'm kind of out of shape. ”

"I'll try to destroy this Horcrux until the old Gaunt mansion is."

He took a deep breath, sat back on the couch, and asked, "So, what about the second Horcrux?" ”

"The second piece"

Townsend hesitated for a moment, then said, "I don't know if I should tell you, Professor Dumbledore. ”

"This Horcrux is very special."

"If it weren't for some coincidence, I would never have discovered the existence of this Horcrux, I mean, I am probably the first person in the world to know about the existence of this Horcrux."

"The first one?" Dumbledore noticed the word.

"That's right." Tang Sen said: "Even the mysterious man himself doesn't know the existence of this Horcrux. ”

The corners of his mouth drooped, a sad look, and he said, "That's not an object, Professor Dumbledore, it's a person, a living person. ”

Dumbledore was shocked, and some not-so-good speculations came to his mind.

He opened his mouth and said with some stuttering, "Can people also be made into Horcruxes?" ”

"Obviously, by some coincidence, yes." "For example, when the mysterious man used a powerful spell, but under the protection of an ancient magic, killed himself instead, his soul split and merged with his goal. ”

Dumbledore froze where he was, his usually calm eyes filled with shock.

"You-"

His voice grew hoarse.

"Professor Tang, what you're talking about—"

"That's right, Professor Dumbledore." Townsend said in a deep voice, "I'm talking about the boy who won't die, a student of Hogwarts, he's your student, and he's my student." ”

"Harry Potter."
