Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

Gabriel's breathing gradually became steady, and she fell asleep halfway through hearing it!

Ai Wen lowered his voice and continued the story, because he knew someone was listening, and he told it to the person in his arms.

Hermione crawled forward, got out of the quilt, and met Ivan's eyes.

They didn't speak, but silence speaks louder than words, and the two already knew everything the other wanted to express from their eyes.

"At that time, your tears fell into my mouth. The taste was salty, but it tasted sweet in my heart. I knew you were the one I was destined for. We protect each other and never leave!" Ai Wen said, looking at her with an expression.

He put his head down, pressed his lips to the kitten's forehead, and kissed her.

Hermione also stuck out her tongue and licked Ivan, immersed in the story he told.

Chapter 832

In a warm and peaceful atmosphere, a person and a cat just hugged each other tightly, and no one moved while maintaining this posture.

After more than an hour, after making sure that Gabriel was asleep, Ivan secretly sent Hermione back. The most nervous thing should be the time when she was waiting for her to change through the bathroom door. He could clearly hear Hermione The sound of getting dressed.

Listening to these voices, Ivan unconsciously recalled the feeling of hugging Hermione tightly just now, with residual warmth in his hands.

He decided to go back and experiment with the difference between a clothed Animagus and an unclothed Animagus.

After Hermione came out, she probably also felt that this was not very good. It was not an option to continue, so she just took most of the clothes from Aiwen.

Until he left Egypt, Aiwen didn't have to look forward to the picture of Hermione asking for clothes and taking a bath with him.

In return, she actually took the initiative to kiss Aiwen when she said good night to each other. Although it was only a light touch, it was an unprecedented breakthrough and gave him an urge to stay here at night. Whether it was a human or a cat, he could ...

"Good night!" Hermione took the initiative to kiss Ivan, and then pushed him out.

"Good night!" Ivan whispered, and the door in front of him slowly closed.

What he didn't know was that after closing the door, Hermione turned and stood leaning against the inside of the door for a long time.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and a sweet smile appeared on her face again, she didn't know what she was laughing at...

The night was quiet, but the mood of the two of them could not be calm for a long time.

When Ivan returned to his room, he looked helplessly at Gabriel, who was lying on the bed with the quilt in his arms, and was sleeping soundly.

"This guy is really slow, and he hasn't found anything until now."

Ai Wen climbed onto the bed and pushed the guy who was in the way aside.

Gabriel immediately entangled herself like an octopus, hugging Ivan tightly, as if he was a large doll.

"How can this make me sleep!" Ai Wen blinked, Da Xia Tian's hug was so tight, isn't this child too hot? !

Because of tossing for too long at night, several people were not in a good state of mind the next day.

Ivan and Hermione kept breathing, obviously suffering from insomnia, and because of the nightmare, Gabriel was also a little depressed.

It was not until the middle of the night that Bill brought Furong back, and the two went out to play for a long time.

Fleur told them that she and Bill had gone to a party last night, a party put on by Gringotts Cursebreakers.

"Then why don't you take us there?" Gabriel demanded.

"Because you are not members of the Order of the Phoenix, in order to resist the mysterious person, we need to contact foreign wizards." Furong said, rubbing Gabrielle's face, "Besides, you are still too young to participate in that kind of party .”

"Too young, this is really a very convincing reason." Ivan muttered.

The only one who is really young here is Gabriel, he and Hermione are not young anymore!

Although Aiwen felt that there were many suspicious things in it, there was no way to refute Fu Rong.

Her reason is indeed very good, contacting foreign wizards to fight Voldemort together, this is also Bill's main task in Egypt.

After telling Bill about Hermione's reasoning last night, they went to Gringotts to meet the goblin Zusay.

Zuo Sai and his team members still gathered in the side hall they saw yesterday, continuing to sort out the newly excavated artifacts.

"I went back and thought about it carefully, and decided to agree to your invitation and join your excavation team." Ivan walked over and said directly.

"You made a wise choice, Mr. Mason." Zuo Sai said softly, standing in front of an ancient Egyptian chariot taller than him, he was very close, holding a round magnifying glass in his right hand Look at the beautiful pattern above, "We are leaving in three days for a month and a half of excavation work. I hope you and your friends are ready. By the way, I will send someone to report the progress of the excavation and what needs to be done. Tell you."

He stopped and put the magnifying glass in his coat pocket.

"Lavier, come here, hurry up." Zuo Sai shouted loudly, "Bring over the drawings from Hall No. [-]."

In the next second, the dark-skinned, energetic girl ran over in a hurry, holding a large blueprint in her hand.

"Mr. Zuo Sai?" Lavier said, looking at Ivan and the others suspiciously.

"This is Ivan Mason, a wizard who is proficient in alchemy. He will join us in the excavation of the Sun Ruins and be responsible for solving the mechanisms related to alchemy at the main entrance of the hall." Zuo Sai said with a serious face, " You hand over the work to other people, and you are responsible for accompanying a few of them in the three days before departure, and telling them about our current progress."

"Yes." Lavier turned around and said happily, "Hello, we meet again!"

Ivan, Bill, Fleur, Hermione, and Gabriel hurriedly greeted each other, and Zuo Sai turned around to study the ancient chariot in front of him.

"Mr. Zuo Sai, since I have agreed to join your excavation team, what about my previous application, watching "Jade Records"?" Ivan reminded, frowning at the elf.

"I think it will be considered after the excavation team returns..."

"Watching "Emerald Jade" as soon as possible is very helpful for me to improve my alchemy ability, maybe it will help." Ai Wen said, "You don't want to be unable to help you unlock the organs in the ruins because of my lack of ability. ?”

"Of course not. We need more trust and sincerity with each other, Mr. Mason. Unlike humans, goblins keep their promises the most. I will take you there, but only you can go there." Zuo Sai said impatiently , seems very dissatisfied with Aiwen interrupting his research, "Let's go, "Jade Record" is in the underground vault."

After talking to Hermione, Ivan followed the goblin out of the hall through a door at the end.

Similar to Gringotts in England, behind the door is a narrow stone corridor, brightly lit by burning torches.

The stone corridor is a steep downhill slope with a small railway underneath.

"In Nicole Flamel's recommendation letter, he praised your alchemy talent very much. I hope you will not let me down, and you can successfully unlock the mechanism in the sun ruins." Zuo Sai dragged his voice Say, "Otherwise, you'll regret it..."

He held out his long, thin fingers, and a small cart sprinted toward them along the track.

Ai Wen climbed into the car and looked at the very old goblin.

The meaning of the threat in his words is very obvious. Since he asked Aiwen to watch "The Emerald Jade Record", Aiwen must help him unlock the mechanism in the sun ruins.

There is a lot of distrust between the two, it's just a deal, and hopefully there will be no surprises during the digging.

Chapter 833 Emerald Jade Record

Both of them climbed into the small cart, but the goblin didn't start it in a hurry. He seemed to have something to say to Ivan.

"We must hurry up, Mr. Mason." Zuo Sai said to himself, with a sharp and piercing voice, "I am different from you, my time is very precious, and there are still many things waiting for me to do..."

"Yes!" Ivan looked at the very old goblin, not understanding what he meant.

"I don't know what you want to achieve, but you will definitely not succeed." Zuo Sai continued, taking out a pocket watch from his pocket and looking at it, in an exasperating tone, "I even doubt whether you can Understand the early hieroglyphs of ancient Egypt."

To be honest, Ivan really doesn't know hieroglyphs, but only knows the meanings represented by a few special symbols.

"Sorry, I don't understand what you mean..." he asked directly.

"I mean, watching the translated version and the original version of "Jade Record" means little to you. I have seen too many arrogant human wizards like you come here to delusional about the real secrets contained in "Jade Record", but they I got nothing." Zuo Sai said, put away his pocket watch, turned to look at Aiwen, "Those rumors from the outside world are completely nonsense, except for the above knowledge, that legendary magic item is just an ordinary stone slab, None of the magical powers you wished for."

"Knowledge itself is priceless, and the early hieroglyphics in ancient Egypt may give me some inspiration." Aiwen said.

He understood what Zuo Sai meant, this goblin looked down on him at all, and thought he didn't need to read the original version of "Jade Record".

"What a hassle, a waste of time..." Zuo Sai muttered in a low voice.

After that, neither of the two people spoke, and the small cart galloped along the maze-like winding corridors.

Soon, Ai Wenji was confused. The terrain here is much more complicated than that of the underground in London. There are many places full of gravel. A narrow passage was maintained by magic for them to pass through. After the trolley passed by, the back Turned into a pile of quicksand again.

The icy air whizzed past, and after ten minutes, they rushed deep underground.

In the yellow gravel and rocks, Aiwen saw many ancient relics of different ages. They were produced in different strata according to different times. This probably belongs to the characteristics of Egypt. Only this country and this city have so many remains of ancient relics. .

As time went on, they descended deeper and deeper, picking up speed.

The air became colder and biting at the sharp turn, and the cart rattled over a mountain stream.

"We're here!" Zuo Sai pointed, and the light of countless torches dispersed the surrounding darkness from far and near.

Aiwen saw that in front of them was a huge stone, without the complicated and heavy iron gates like the Gringotts vault in London.

Zuo Sai got up to the stone and said solemnly, "Sesame, open the door!"

He stretched out a long finger and gently tapped the huge rock, and a wide doorway suddenly appeared in front of the big rock.

Aiwen looked at each other speechlessly. The goblins of Gringotts must have never read the book "Arabian Nights", or is it that the story of Alibaba and the Forty Thieves originally came from here, and the caves of the thieves were designed by the goblins? of.

His attention soon shifted to the room behind the rock, where a green stone glowed softly in the firelight.

It was a huge green stone slab made of emeralds all over, and it was engraved with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs.

The edge of the stone slab is irregular, and there is a huge crack in the upper left, as if it was forcibly knocked down from somewhere.

"This is the Jade Record you wish to see, Mr. Mason!" Zuo Sai said, with a malicious smile on his face, "Thousands of years ago, the wizards of ancient Egypt recovered this priceless treasure from tomb robbers .It was originally treasured in the secret room of the Hermes Pharaoh’s Pyramid, and that pyramid has now become a ruin. It is a pity that the text on it is incomplete, and the crucial information has been lost.”

"It's really a pity." Ai Wen said, carefully looking at the "Jade Record" in the middle of the room.

"The Egyptian Ministry of Magic asked Gringotts to keep this priceless alchemy book. The temperature and humidity inside are strictly controlled. It has been decades since no one has entered this place, because too much viewing will damage the "Jade Jade." The Record itself wreaks havoc."

"Well, I see, Mr. Zuo Sai, can I go in and have a look?" Ivan said, "I can't see clearly here."

He didn't enter this room rashly, he could feel the traces of magic power inside, there were dozens of protection spells and curses.

The goblin had no good intentions at all, and kept standing by the rock looking at Ivan without reminding him.

If he couldn't resist walking into this room, he might suffer.

"Of course." Zuo Sai said, the smile on his face gradually subsided, and he pointed again, "Please, Mr. Mason."

Ai Wen walked in, and behind him, the goblin was staring at him closely, which made people feel bad.

As Zuo Sai said, Aiwen couldn't understand what was written in "Jade Record", which were the most primitive ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs.

He circled the stone slab twice, then returned to the original spot, making sure that there was no magical aura on it.

Because of Ivan's actions, the goblin sneered.

"Do you still want to continue watching?" Zuo Sai asked softly, and took out the pocket watch again, "I said, you are wasting your time."

Aiwen ignored him. He had read the translated version of "Jade Record" before and compared his memory with the hieroglyphs above.

The surviving "Cuiyulu" contains thirteen concise aphorisms, instructing the reader how to rely on to contact the deep, divine spiritual level, which is the basis of alchemy.

But that's not all of it. Nicole Flamel told him before that the secret of extracting the Philosopher's Stone from all things in the world is not only hidden in "Jade Records".

Only the alchemist who holds the key can know the real secret contained in it.

This key is the "Book of Abraham" on Ivan, which is the most orthodox inheritance of "The Jade Record".

Ivan took a deep breath, concentrated, and gently chanted the first mantra of "The Book of Abraham".

Following his actions, the words on the stone slab gradually changed.

It seemed to sense something, and it began to emit a faint green light, which became more and more obvious.

In the green light, the text on the "Jade Record" appeared a little smoke, slowly floated from the stone slab, and gradually appeared around Aiwen, surrounding him...

Behind Aiwen, the goblin Zuo Sai looked at the picture in surprise, opened his mouth wide, and looked at him in disbelief.

Chapter 834 God Thoth and the Double Snake Staff

In the stone room deep underground, all the words on the "Jade Record" floated up and surrounded Ai Wen.

Zuo Sai watched all this in shock, and gradually held his breath, not knowing what Aiwen did to cause such a big commotion.

He has studied the "Jade Record" countless times, and he can confirm that there is no magic power on this jade slab, only the words on it are the basis of alchemy, and the "Jade Record" body is made of ordinary jade.

But what was happening in front of him overturned his previous conclusions and subverted his worldview.

The "Jade Record" itself is a well-deserved legendary magic item with special powers on it, and this human boy is doing miracles.

The pocket watch in Zuo Sai's hand fell to the ground, he didn't care, just looked at Ai Wen blankly.

He was suddenly very glad that he followed him, which was much more meaningful than studying those cultural relics.

The magic power emerging from the jade is not strong, but it is very wonderful. Zuo Sai opened his eyes and looked at all this greedily.

He suddenly thought that if he could figure out the secrets, this might become a huge archaeological discovery that would shake the magic world.

Of course, Zuo Sai didn't care about these things, what he needed was gold and endless wealth.
