Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 43 Explore Gaunt's Old House
What happened to Malfoy's house, Lean and Snape didn't know, they were standing in front of Gaunt's old house now.

The manor looks very dilapidated, but it can still vaguely see its former glory.

Moss had climbed up the walls, there were broken roof tiles in the corners and peeling plaster from the walls, and weeds were growing in the yard.

The windows were dark and broken, and the metal door was rusted to death.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the dead snake nailed to the door.

"Better be careful from now on, I'm still thinking about the Hogwarts dinner." Lean took out his wand and began to raise his vigilance.

"The Muggle shielding spell here has expired. We'd better keep our noise down, otherwise it will be difficult to hide it from the Ministry of Magic." Snape said angrily.

This trip was really bad. Before actually entering Gaunt's old house, there was an incident of Lean being attacked, and now I found that the Muggle shielding spell disappeared.

"Let's go." Although there were many difficulties, it still couldn't stop Snape from wanting to get the resurrection stone.

A spell directly opened the gate, and the two entered the manor.

After entering the courtyard, Snape thoughtfully restored the gate to its original shape to prevent Muggles from discovering the mutation.

"Is the Resurrection Stone here?" Snape looked at the dilapidated house in front of him, and couldn't stop his excitement.

"It's in this house. It may take a lot of work to find it."

Lean quietly opened the magic vision, and then found that the whole house was shrouded in a huge magic circle.

"And whether you can go in or not is another matter. Take a closer look."

Although Snape was eager to find the resurrection stone, but when it came to the Dark Lord, Snape couldn't be careless.

After hearing what Lean said, Snape began to look carefully at the dilapidated house.

After a long time, Snape exhaled slowly, and said solemnly: "Croll Encryption Curse, I think we are in serious trouble."

The Kroll Encryption Curse is actually a magic version of the safe, which can only be passed through if the password set by the owner is entered correctly, otherwise it can only be broken by brute force.

Generally speaking, the password set by the wizard will be a wave of magic power that only you know, which greatly reduces the risk of being stolen.

Snape's private coffer used this spell.

But at this moment Snape wished he could move the time and travel back to 400 years ago to strangle that guy named Kroll to death.

"So the only option left is brute force?" Lean said from the side.

"That'll get the attention of the Muggles. Would you like to see your picture in tomorrow's Daily Prophet and then you'll just have to sit in the Headmaster's office and wait to be expelled?"

Snape yelled at Rin, but after a while, he said, "There's no other way."

I saw Snape raised his wand, facing the protective cover formed by Kroll's encryption spell, and said softly: "The god has no shadow."

An invisible blade formed in the air, and then quickly hit Kroll's secrecy spell.

Ripples like water swayed on the cover of the Secrecy Charm, but even Snape, who had no magic vision, could feel that the cover was not as hard as before.

There is a play, and it is estimated that it will be enough to come back twice.

Snape thought so, and he didn't stop, and even threw two "Shen Feng Wu Ying".

The secrecy spell didn't last long under Snape's high-intensity bombardment, and disappeared after about four shadowless spells.

"Look for it separately, so it's faster." Snape said, walking into the dilapidated house first.

Lean looked at Snape's back and sighed.

The affectionate old man is so eager.

But this is exactly what Lean wants.

There are still three catties of iron on the broken ship, such a big old house, such a family that has been passed down for thousands of years, Li En doesn't believe that there is no oil and water.

Thinking about it, Lean also took steps towards the house.

As soon as I entered the house, a decaying atmosphere came over my face. The plaster on the wall had fallen off, exposing the wall inside; the portraits and photos that were originally hung on the wall are now only left unmoved and The faded papers were stacked randomly on the ground.

The paint on the surface of the furniture has also cracked, and the whole house looks like a ghost house.

Lean looked around, but there was no sign of Snape.

"I don't know where this old bat has gone. I hope I don't get overwhelmed and encounter the curse left by Voldemort." Lean muttered.

"If it weren't for you being a Slytherin, I would have deducted twenty house points from you now, for criticizing the professor behind your back."

Snape's icy voice sounded from behind Rian, scaring Rin to the point of having a heart attack.

"Do you know that it will scare people to death!"

"Hehe." Snape showed a mocking smile, "Start from the middle staircase, you search the room on the left, and I search the room on the right."

After finishing speaking, he didn't care how Lien reacted, and walked to the right.

"Tch." Lien also walked to the left.

There are only four rooms on both sides of the corridor on the left side of the first floor, and there is a very large room at the top.

Lien first opened the first door on the right. The wooden door was already decayed. Lien just pushed lightly, and the door fell down.

There is a small bed inside, it is very small, there is only a blanket covered with small mushrooms on it, and there is only a stool left.

Lean guessed that this room should be the residence of the house-elves.

Shaking his head, Rian withdrew his gaze from the room, and then walked to the opposite room.

"Ok?"

Lean held the handle with his hand and pushed hard, but he didn't push it away.

There are good things.

Li En suddenly realized that the speed in his hand also increased.

"Araho Cave is open."

With a "click", the door opened.

Lean probed inside and found that there were some dark objects inside, spoons, plates, cups, etc. were all piled up on wooden shelves.

One of the wooden racks was damaged and its contents were scattered on the floor.

This is a storage room for tableware, and it appears that the tableware is made of silver.

"Oh, it's useless." Li En sighed, these yellow and white things are of no use to him now.

Looking at the remaining two rooms, Lean lost hope for an instant.

So it was, and the remaining two rooms were house-elf dwellings.

Lien shook his head in disappointment, and shifted his gaze to the large room at the top.

The big room is the kitchen, and Lean found two alchemy items used to ignite fire from it, and it was a bit of a harvest.

Snape on the other side didn't have the patience to search room by room.

Directly open the door with a shock spell, then smash all the things in the room and float into the air. If there is no ring-shaped thing, go directly to the next room.
