Chapter 116: Prophecy
At the foot of the hill to the north of the woods is a rolling meadow with several criss-crossing streams. Wading through the stream, they came out of the woods and into the pasture.
As far as the eye could see, there was a patch of green everywhere, and the streams showed no signs of freezing. Presenting such a scene in winter is amazing to the Straight Church.
Hagrid was sighing, when he saw a hairy man walking up not far from the back slope, and he recognized it as his old acquaintance, and greeted him with a smile.
"Oh, Fei Lengcui, long time no see, my old colleague!"
"Yes, Hagrid. It's been at least more than 10 years, right? What a nostalgia! I mean, I'm glad to see you!"
When the words fell, he embraced each other enthusiastically, and after a while, he reminisced all the way and reflexively came to the old man and horse.
"Patriarch. Fei Leng Cui bowed his head.
"Take these two kids with you. The old man pointed to Clarence and Jensen behind him, "Take them to rest." ”
"Yes. ”
"And Kevin, old patriarch. Hagrid hurriedly spoke.
"This child will be personally received by me. ”
"This?" Hagrid hesitated.
"It's fine. Emerald put one hand on Hagrid's shoulder, then looked at Clarence and Jensen, "Come with me, boys." ”
Seeing that Hagrid also waved at him, Clarence and Jensen immediately stepped forward to follow, but before parting, they still looked at Kevin with some concern. Seeing this, Kevin smiled at him twice as a comforter.
"Alright, you guys go. "Persuade the people to disperse, the old man Ma then looked at Kevin, "Please forgive the previous rudeness, I have never seen the fate of the world so closely entangled in one person, I have to be cautious." ”
"What do you mean?"
"Please come with me. ”
The old man Ma did not say it explicitly, but reflexively walked towards the mountain. A confused Kevin followed, he looked at Phoenix on his shoulder, but saw that the latter was just looking around and did not respond, so he didn't ask any more questions.
After a while, Kevin followed the old man into a dome hut made of mud and stones. The skylight in the middle of the top of the hut was wide open, and the light shone through it, shining on the clear water of a clay pot on the ground, and the water surface reflected a blue sky and white clouds. In addition to this plate of clear water, there is only a pile of half-withered flowers and plants in the corner of the house, and the decoration can be described as shabby.
Standing in front of the clay pot, motioning for Kevin to come to the opposite of him, the old man said, "Has a teacher ever done divination to you in the school?"
"Yes, it's my divination professor. Kevin replied truthfully, "When I was studying divination, I couldn't come up with a conclusion, or rather, a revelation. So, the teacher personally divined for me. ”
"The result, the result?"
"She used a porcelain cup filled with tea residues to do the divination for me, but unfortunately halfway through the divination, she accidentally fell to the ground and shattered. At that time, the teacher said that he was sorry and refused to divinate a second time. ”
"Do you believe it was accidental?"
The old man's words were intriguing, Kevin couldn't help but think deeply, he already had doubts in his heart, and he was pointed out by the old man at this time. Seeing that Kevin was silent, the old man smiled and then took a bouquet of flowers and plants from the corner.
"These are sage and mallow flowers. Normally, people would light them and then look at their smoke and flames to predict the future. Seeing that Kevin's attention gradually focused on the bouquet of flowers and plants in his hand, the old man began the next move, reaching out to place these flowers and plants in the sun, "But if this method is used on you, there is a high chance that it will fail like that tea dregs." So, we have to add another method of our clan, stargazing. ”
As the words fell, Kevin couldn't help but look at the clear water in the clay pot.
It turned out that at some point, the bouquet of flowers and plants began to spontaneously combust without fire. They were held in the hands of the old man, and there was no open flame, but they gradually became blackened, and with it, a cloud of smoke. A breeze blew, and the ashes scattered, but the smoke sank unmoved, until it touched the water, and then vanished.
In the next second, as if the ink was fading, the surface of the water became dark from the point where the smoke touched. But as the darkness unfolded, countless points of light suddenly emerged from it, presenting a scene of the night sky.
"Gotta see it more clearly. ”
The points of light in the water were dense, and in some places they were almost connected, and the old man said with a frown, followed by his hands on the basin, and muttered vague and strange syllables in his mouth.
The moment the voice sounded, Kevin clearly saw that the light in the room was much dimmer, and the skylight no longer had dazzling sunlight projecting down, but the starry sky in the clay pot was getting brighter and brighter. The dazzling stars reflect on the dome, and in an instant, a Milky Way is drawn and shines brightly.
Kevin was dazzled by this scene, intending to get a glimpse of the mystery. At this time, the old man and the horse, his attention was not on the dome. The starlight sprinkled down, reflecting Kevin's figure into the clay pot, and the old man stared at the water, his eyes trembling incessantly, and the light and shadow changed endlessly in his eyes.
"It's too big, it's too big!" The old man Ma hurriedly closed his eyes, and two lines of clear tears flowed down his cheeks, dripping uncontrollably, "It's too sour!
"Let's get some rest. After thinking about it, Kevin spoke again, "So, what do you see?" ”
The old man Ma was suddenly stunned for a moment, his mind shifted from his sour eyes to what he had just seen, and suddenly, the suppressed emotions in his heart suddenly burst out, and his expression was so excited that he opened his arms and said like an aria: "The old era has made you, and you will achieve the new era!"
"The old era, Death Eaters, refers to the effects of the last wizarding war, and what does the new era refer to? Can you be clearer?" Kevin didn't fall into a frenzy, his mind was more confused, puzzled by the riddle-like prophecy.
"I can't say it explicitly. The old man opened his eyes, and his bloodshot eyes made Kevin gasp, "You can see it, it's just the price of snooping." I can only tell you a rough idea, the old era is far more profound than you can imagine, and the new era will turn everything upside down to the point that it is difficult to understand. ”
Exhaling lightly, coming back to his senses, as if something suddenly came to mind, Kevin hurriedly said, "Thank you! Now, all I care about is my family, will they ever be with me in my future?"
"Those who are still alive will always return safely. ”
"Really?" Hearing this, Kevin didn't seem to be very happy, but he buried his head in a wry smile, he heard the hidden meaning of the revelation, and looked at Phoenix on his shoulder, "You're not going to help me, are you?"
"Whether it can be perfected is another matter. After finishing speaking, seeing that Kevin was still looking at him, Phoenix said helplessly, "Regarding this aspect, I never thought of rejecting you. But have you ever thought that if you really do it, you will definitely succeed?"
"Gotta give it a try. Kevin muffled, and then he looked at the old man on the other side, "Measure the bird on my shoulder!"
"Are you taking revenge on me?" said Phoenix, in a strange tone, with a somewhat amusement.
"Humph!" Kevin turned.
Seeing this, the old man shook his head with a smile and persuaded, "This is your patron saint." I've heard from Flency that Headmaster Dumbledore has developed a Patronus Charm, which was originally only used to resist Dementors, into a new feature for communication. You're remarkable, giving the Patronus an independent will. I say yes, as special as you are, but at the same time you should be aware that the Patronus and its owner are of the same origin. Essentially, measuring it is still looking into your future. ”
"Then I'm sorry for you. ”
"Maybe I'm having a problem with my expression, but can you let me say it again and explain this useless behavior. ”
"I can understand what you mean, but, plead, this is the last time, I swear!"
The old man was stunned, hesitated for a while, and then said helplessly: "Hey, okay, the last time!" I just interrupted for a while, and I didn't see the longer future, only that you would use it as a communication tool in the future. This time, let me try to see if I can look a little deeper. ”
As he spoke, he shook off the embers in his hand and fetched a bouquet of flowers and plants from the corner again. During the conversation between the two earlier, the night inside the house had faded, and the water had returned to the scene of a clear sky. However, the old man had just lifted the flowers and plants in his hand into the sun, and Kevin was waiting with anticrative anticrisy for the starlight to come again, when Phoenix spoke.
"Be careful, old man. Seeing the other man looking over, he paused for a moment and then said, "Be careful, don't smash it." ”
