Hogwarts: I am Harry's Cousin

Chapter 351 345. Really? I do not believe!

"Harry, do you need to decorate this place too?"

Dudley frowned and looked at the peeling wallpaper on the walls on both sides of the corridor and the dirty and black old carpet on the floor.

It's not that he's mysophobic, it's just that this place is not much cleaner than his kennel.

No, actually most dogs love to be clean, which is the biggest insult to a kennel.

"I don't think so. I basically won't live here."

His old Potter house in Godric's Hollow has been repaired, and Dudley's castle next to it has also reserved a room for him, so there is no need to travel so far away to live there.

“It’s also good to use as a temporary residence, as long as it must be cleaned.”

After casually smothering a vixen that appeared out of nowhere, Neville said: "I can't believe this place is dirtier than Nurmengard Castle. There has been no one in that place for fifty years." clean."

Yes, there are more vixens hiding in the nearby curtains and the dirty carpet than in the entire Nurmengard Castle.

When everyone was approaching the stairs leading to the second floor, Harry suddenly said: "We should go upstairs from the other side."

"Sirius said there was something bad about that staircase."

"Bad thing? What is it?"

Neville patted the dust above his head that had fallen from the ceiling.

Harry shook his head: "He didn't tell me the details."

Everyone said it didn't matter, since there was more than one staircase in Blake's old house anyway.

The moment they stepped onto the second floor, they were stunned by the scene in front of them. To be precise, they were frightened by a wall at the top of the stairs on the second floor.

Countless dried heads were hung densely on the wall, to be precise, they were the heads of house elves. It seemed that some kind of spell had been cast on them, preventing them from being easily weathered.

"Sirius said these are house elves who have served the Black family their entire lives."

Harry explained beside him, and said a little embarrassedly: "I was also shocked when I first came here, and I almost used Li Huo."

If it were to be used, Blake's old house would become history.

"What an odd quirk these ancient pureblood families have."

Ron complained, and at the end he didn't forget to diss Draco every day: "Draco, does your family also have this habit?"

"The Malfoy family is not so barbaric and bloody. It's not like you haven't been there before."

Draco rolled his eyes at him angrily.

"What if your family hid the head of the house elf in the secret room?"

Ron continued to ask.

"Who would be so bored as to hide the head of an elf in a secret room? Rosiglitazone sodium tablets. Sometimes I really want to pry open your head and see what's inside."

Draco was infuriated by Ron's unbridled fantasy: "And don't forget, your surname Weasley has no less history than the Black family."

"Really? I don't believe it!"

"believe it or not!"

Draco glanced at Ron with disgust and moved to the side very obviously, fearing that he would be infected by this ignorant idiot.

This was really the first time Ron heard about it. Before that, he only knew that their family was pure blood. After all, Arthur (Mr. Weasley) and Molly (Mrs. Weasley) would not mention blood to their children, let alone It's okay to tell the children how long and ancient their family's history is, and they don't care about it.

The area of ​​the second floor is no smaller than that of the first floor, and there is also a large living room that looks very exquisite and gorgeous. There is a large fireplace in the middle of the living room, flanked by two gorgeous glass cabinets, which are filled with various items. Such dark magic items, and a wall next to it is covered with a Black family tree-shaped genealogy tapestry.

There were especially many foxes in the living room, so many that they could form an army. The curtains were filled with eggs of foxes.

"Funny!"

Neville's voice came from the side, and he was seen standing in front of the desk, with a severed slug rolling in place next to him.

There are even dark magical creatures like Boggarts.

Dudley took the Boggart into his pocket very unceremoniously.

The Black Mansion is more like a miniature base camp for magical creatures than the Potter Mansion, and this is when the Black Mansion is protected by a magic spell and can be hidden.

"If you are going to live here during this period, you need to clean it up."

"I don't want to get bitten by one of these annoying little things."

Draco said with a look of disgust on his face, there were never any foxy people in Malfoy Manor.

Only wizards who rarely clean their homes will breed such little creatures. Hu Meizi's large-scale reproduction characteristics are similar to 'Xiaoqiang', and their annoyingness is similar to fleas. Although a bite from them is not fatal, it is uncomfortable.

Fortunately, several of them are wizards. Although cleaning such a large house is a lot of work, they only need to move their hands and wave their magic wands.

"Harry, where is Sirius? Although he gave you the house, where does he live?"

"Of course he lives here, but he said before that he would go somewhere far away to do some errands, so he won't be here in the near future."

Several divisions of foxes were packed up and taken away by Dudley. These little things could be very powerful weapons if they were put to good use.

No matter how weak any creature is, once it has a numerical advantage, it is still very terrifying.

A swarm of mealworms can eat a snake, and a swarm of ants can eat an elephant.

In ancient times, the 'locust plague' was a swarm of grasshoppers (locusts), which was so terrifying that it covered the ground, and no grass grew wherever they went.

Dudley plans to turn these vixens into a similar secret weapon - the 'Vox Catastrophe'.

"The Black family's collection of books is here."

One of the rooms on the second floor is the study, where the magical books collected by the Black family over the generations are stored.

To Hermione, this room was heaven.

Generally speaking, powerful magic books are protected by magic, and cannot be read unless the corresponding method is found. However, no matter how powerful the magic is, it cannot withstand time, and it can be easily damaged if it is not properly kept.

The Hogwarts library is managed by Mrs. Pince, so the books in the library are as good as new, even the restricted books area that requires professors to write a note before they can be read.

And the Black family

"Many of the original copies were damaged."

Hermione took out a few books and looked at the weathered marks on many pages, her eyes filled with heartache. These were all valuable knowledge.

Even the sturdiest and easiest-to-preserve parchment rolls have been riddled with countless holes.

"Sirius said he got a headache and felt sleepy when he read the book, so he has never stepped foot in this room since he took over the Black family."

Harry explained that he had only been to the Black Mansion once and there was nothing he could do about it.

Not to mention that Sirius had been imprisoned in Azkaban for more than ten years. Even if he was released without charge, he had never entered this study, let alone expected him to take the time to maintain it.

At this time

There was a loud curse outside the door.
