Eternal fog?

This is a word that has never appeared in the original work. It is possible that Dumbledore missed it because he was not good at finding people to make up stories.

The speed of the rail car is constant at a relatively stable stage.

Bogorod also became a little nervous. He checked the lantern again, turned around and reminded:

"My dear sir, and my dear Madame Perenal, please do not attempt to extend your limbs outside the vehicle in this position.

Also try not to make any noise, it only takes a short time for us to get through the fog. "

Zhang Xiao and Perenal nodded together. The halo of Perenal's bracelet was flowing, which was really beautiful.

In just a short while, Zhang Xiao saw a dense fog blocking the way ahead.

The gray mist was boiling and rolling, but the strange thing was that the mist didn't seem to spread, but lazily nestled together.

Occasionally, a trace of mist escaped and quickly retracted as if frightened.

Zhang Xiao wanted to use his magic eye to see, but he was afraid that doing so would cause some changes in the mist.

After thinking about it again and again, I gave up the idea. I'm not a reckless person, so why bother.

The rail car gradually approached the fog, and the original dim yellow light of the portable lamp embedded in front of the rail car suddenly turned into blood red.

The mist was immediately separated by the blood-red lights, revealing the original track. The rail car slid into the passage, and the surroundings suddenly darkened.

It was like driving into a deep tunnel. Not far away from the rail car was the strange mist. There was only the friction sound of the rail car passing by and the light of the lantern.

There was silence all around, and Perenal had closed her eyes. This depressing atmosphere made her very uncomfortable, but Zhang Xiao insisted on watching.

He just remembered Bogorod's warning, put the tip of his tongue against the roof of his mouth, and gritted his teeth, but his eyes kept scanning the surroundings.

At a certain moment, Zhang Xiao felt as if he had seen something, but when he turned his eyes away, there was nothing.

He thought for a moment, then slowly moved his body and put his face against the cold rail car door.

This way he didn't leave the range of the car, but he got closer to the fog.

Then Zhang Xiao knew why Bogrod had repeatedly advised not to extend his limbs outside the car.

Because the moment Zhang Xiao brought his face close, he saw a pale face appearing in the mist.

No, not one.

Even though it was against the roof of his mouth, Zhang Xiao still felt like he wanted to inhale and make some noise.

Because pale faces suddenly appeared above the fog, they imitated their own appearance and pressed their faces to the edge of the fog.

They wanted to rush out, but the light from the lantern was like an invisible wall, firmly blocking them behind.

Is this the secret hidden in the eternal fog?

So what are these faces?

Zhang Xiao calmly sat upright again, looked at his eyes, nose and heart, calmly concentrating, pretending not to see anything.

But out of the corner of his eye, he could clearly see the disappointed expressions on the faces, slowly retreating and disappearing into the depths of the mist.

The fog was not thick, and not long after, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared at the end of the fog. It was obviously in a cave of unknown depth, but compared to the fog outside, it seemed like dawn.

It was as if someone had quietly turned off the mute button, and all kinds of sounds filled everyone's ears again.

Bogrod breathed a sigh of relief and turned the lantern, turning the blood-red light into dim yellow again.

"Well, we have successfully left the Eternal Mist. Distinguished Sir, Dear Mrs. Perenal, look, is there any safer protection measure than this?"

Perenal took a long breath, and she nodded unequivocally:

"Yes, it is indeed safe, but I want to ask, do I have to go through such a dangerous thing every time I withdraw money?

Needless to say, it is not dangerous. I have lived for so long and my sensitivity to danger is unimaginable. During that stretch of road, I could clearly feel that I was walking with death. "

It's so beautiful. Is this what it means to become a mature person with old age?

Zhang Xiao secretly cheered in his heart. The eternal fog just now was obviously very difficult. It was the only thing that he had no impression of.

It belongs to touch your own blind spot of knowledge.

I wanted to talk about this fog, but there was no good starting point, but now Perenal's question was just right.

The vault should indeed be heavily guarded, but everything inside should be controllable. If withdrawing money is so dangerous, then the top richest people in the wizarding world have no need to save money at all.

"No, no, of course not, ma'am."

It seemed that this was not the first time that Bogrod explained this issue. He said very skillfully: "Mrs. Perenal, in fact, the Eternal Mist is not a creation of goblins.

It is formed naturally. "

"Naturally formed?" Zhang Xiao asked curiously. The question was very appropriate at this time, fully portraying the image of a young man with strong curiosity.

"Yes, sir, when we dug deep into the ground, these fogs came out of nowhere. When they gathered together, they became the eternal fog.

We tried many ways to make the fog dissipate, but all failed. "

Bogro pulled down the control lever, and the speed of the rail car became faster and faster. He turned around with memories on his face:

"But don't worry, the eternal fog is not always there. It rarely comes out. Even if it does come out, we have very mature technology to pass it."

In other words, this extremely dangerous fog doesn’t come out all the time.

Zhang Xiao nodded thoughtfully. No wonder this was not mentioned in the original book. Maybe the Eternal Mist was on vacation when Harry and the others came?

Zhang Xiao wanted to ask again, especially because he really wanted to know what those things in the mist were, but Bogrord had already changed the subject and was talking non-stop about Gringotts' vault.

The rail car was still speeding, and Bogrod pointed to the occasionally raised platforms on the rock wall of the cave:

"Everyone, this is Gringotts's vault numbered within 50. Gringotts is deeply trusted by the entire wizarding world. Not only wizards, but also wealthy people from other races will choose Gringotts.

Over there is the Veela Queen's vault. "

Bogrod casually mentioned something that was considered a secret in the wizarding world. The two people on this rail car were Perenal Flamel, the wife of the legendary alchemist Nick Flamel.

He also enjoys a high reputation in the goblin country, and the other one is even more incredible. The heir of the Eastern Dao Sect can destroy the power of the goblin country.

So Bogrorod didn't see it as a big deal to reveal the owner of the vault - as long as the two men were willing to deposit a large sum of gold in Gringotts.

If the owner of the gold dies and loses an heir, such as Nick Flamel, then the treasure goes to Gringotts.

This is the main reason why goblins are keen on big clients, because everyone knows that wealthy pure-blood families have few heirs and it is very easy to die.
