Chapter 1810 Magic Garden
"Dobby can feel that something is attracting Dobby, Dobby..."
Before he finished speaking, the rock wall in front of him suddenly changed.
A rippling magical ripple flashed, and the surface of the rock formation moved, as if something was about to drill out of it. Soon, a large number of dark green vines appeared from behind the rock wall, which looked very much like devil vines. The vines were intertwined with each other to form a hole on the rock wall that was about the same height as a house elf. The interior was pitch black.
"It's house-elf magic, no wonder no wizards have ever discovered it." Hermione said pleasantly. "The house-elf's home is inside! Dobby, do you still feel anything?"
"Dobby doesn't feel anything but the magic, miss," Dobby squealed. "Is that the old house-elf magic? Dobby never saw it."
"Let's go in and have a look." Hermione said eagerly.
"Better be careful," said Sirius, the tip of his wand glowing strongly, and he stretched his arms inside the opening, which was flanked by a mass of vines.
They are intertwined and staggered, extending obliquely forward, leading to a deep place underground.
Because the passage is too narrow, only one person can pass through at a time.
The four discussed their formation, and decided that Sirius would lead the charge, followed by Dobby, Hermione, and Harry at the end. Thus they entered the passage one by one, talking about the wonders of this magic, and what the house-elf home might be.
The long and narrow tunnel has been extending underground, and it is not known where it leads. The magic wands of the three were faintly visible, and they were not in any danger.
Hermione crawled forward while carefully observing the vines on both sides. She had never seen this kind of plant before. It might be a magical plant cultivated by the ancient house elves. Soon, the rock wall behind the vines gradually turned into mud. , They have already entered a deep place underground, at this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in her mind.
"Do you still remember what was said in the story of the Fountain of Fortune? The garden located in the deep mountains is protected by high walls and powerful magic. Only the vines in the garden can prop up the high walls and open a passage. The three The witch entered the garden through the passage made of vines, which corresponds to everything in front of us."
"I really don't want that story to be true, because the second problem the witches encountered was a huge earthworm blocking the way." Sirius' voice came back from not far ahead, and it sounded weird, "In Fighting underground, we don't have an advantage, and I tried it just now, there is indeed a strange magic power here, which cannot be apparated, if... Be careful, we seem to be in the right place."
At the end of the vine tunnel is a huge space. When Harry climbed out, Sirius was waving his wand and shooting light balls around, and the strong light dispelled the darkness here.
Looking around, this is a huge underground cave, with dense green vines on the surrounding rock walls, and the source of the vines cannot be seen, nor does it know where they extend from.
"This is where the house-elves live," said Hermione, looking around constantly. "Look at these vines on the rock face. They might just come out of the garden."
"Forget about the vines, where's the Hufflepuff key?" Sirius asked.
"The elf demon summoned at Hogwarts told us that Hufflepuff's house-elf brought her treasure to the house-elf's home," recalls Harry. Home, then it must be somewhere in this cave."
[To be honest, I have been using Mimi to read and update books recently, switch sources, read aloud with many timbres, and both Android and Apple are fine. 】
"But it's so big here, it's not easy to find the hidden things, and we don't have time, so it's impossible to find them slowly."
"I know that if the legend is true, the treasure of Hufflepuff may be in the last Fountain of Good Luck, which is the core of this place." Hermione said with certainty, "This is just the periphery of the garden , I haven't seen any other plants except vines."
"Then where should we go? Or let Dobby touch the wall again and trigger the magic of the ancient house-elf." Sirius turned and asked, "Do you feel anything?"
"No!" said Dobby excitedly.
"In the story of the Fountain of Good Luck, the second test is a huge earthworm." Hermione analyzed, "Do you still remember the petroglyphs we saw just now? Maybe we can summon it."
"What is summoned?"
"The earthworm, or the horned snoring beast, or the badger on the golden cup. I don't know what it is. We can only know it when it is summoned. It will take us to the third level."
"Are you crazy?"
"That's what's written in the story, I'm just analyzing it." Hermione said, then she seemed to see something, and suddenly raised her voice, "I seem to have found that platform, exactly as I thought, there should be a platform here .”
She walked forward quickly and came to a tall raised stone.
"What platform, please explain clearly."
"It's the table where the gold cup is placed. That's what the mural outside is like. I think this is it. Seriously, didn't you pay attention to the content of the mural just now?" Hermione said softly, putting Hufflepuff's gold cup on the table. Going up, "It should be placed here, yes, there is a groove here, which matches the size of the gold cup, and then put in the offering, and the earthworm will appear."
Harry and Sirius looked at each other in disbelief.
But for this kind of situation, Harry has been very familiar with it for more than six years. He knows what he should do, that is, keep his mouth shut and wait for Hermione's operation. Usually, what she said is right at this time of.
Sirius was still unclear, so he asked, "What is the sacrifice you are talking about? I have never learned about the diet of house elves, Dobby, what do you like to eat?"
"Dobby is not a picky eater. A good house-elf eats leftover food from its master. Dobby likes to cook food. Dobby will eat whatever the master likes." Dobby racked his brains thinking about what he likes to eat. "Now, the food that Master Ivan or Harry Potter likes is what Dobby likes."
"Sounds really good, we should go back and make a dish that Harry likes to bring back." Sirius said sarcastically.
"It's water!" Hermione said suddenly, "I think so. In the story, the earthworm blocking the way wants the witches to prove the pain to it, and the last witch is left in despair because she is worried that she will miss the fountain of good luck." Tears, the earthworm sipped the tears from her cheeks, its thirst was relieved, and it moved aside, it was thirsty and painful because of lack of water, so it asked the witches to prove the pain to it."
