Hogwarts: The Cat Wizard of the Moving Castle.

According to the information that Mu En knew before, Riddle did have Slytherin blood.

However, today, this line has long been cut off, leaving Tom alone.

As for the others who have spread out, they have probably killed themselves to death because of some bloodline "traditional virtues".

According to Dumbledore, in the sixteenth century, one of Riddle's ancestors murdered his sister and brother-in-law.

The reason is because the other party behaves a little more friendly towards Muggles.

In comparison, the Malfoy family's previous efforts to drive away Muggles from occupying the land through pretense and magical plagues seemed much gentler and shrewder.

Northern England.

Mu En looked at the village not far away and said, "So this is called Slytherin Plains? Just like Godric's Hollow is named."

Dumbledore burst into laughter, and then explained: "Slytherin does not have male heirs, um. After the Chamber of Secrets incident, I spent a lot of time investigating the founder.

After leaving Hogwarts, he seemed to become disheartened and tasteless of everything in the world. He neither cared about his daughter nor whether his surname would be passed down. "

Mu En nodded and asked, "How did you make this inference?"

“Mainly considering the qualities required of Slytherin as a house.

I think that if Slytherin himself had not changed his mentality, he would never have allowed his daughter to abandon her surname and marry into another wizarding family.

As the most powerful wizard in the world, he should not be guilty of letting his girl climb a high branch. "

"Climbing high branches?!"

"Yes, that is the Gaunt family. They are descendants of the Peverell family." Dumbledore explained: "As for the Peverell, that is another story."

"That's possible." Moon agreed with Dumbledore's idea. Slytherin, who valued honor, just sat back and watched his last name being abandoned? This is obviously a decision made under unusual circumstances.

No, it shouldn't be said about decision.

It should be said that at that time, he probably didn't care about these things at all.

"I don't know what he did in his later years." Mu En sighed: "If he is studying magic, then I am still somewhat interested."

"That's unknown." Dumbledore sighed: "But what can be confirmed is that even if Slytherin himself doesn't care whether his surname's bloodline continues, the Gaunt family does.

According to existing information, the Gaunt family has been claiming to be descendants of Slytherin blood in recent hundreds of years. In order to maintain the purity of their bloodline, they have a more paranoid habit of marrying close relatives than other families.

However, it is a pity that the last prominent person in their family besides Riddle was one of the founders of Ilvermorny, Aesop Ther.

Remember the Gaunt family witch I just mentioned who was murdered by her own sister? Aesop is their daughter. "

"I have an impression of this person." Mu En nodded. He had an introduction to this witch in the "History of American Magic" he had read before.

Well, it's a book as thin as a British menu, and it's written generously about the witch.

She was one of the first wizards to arrive in America on the famous Mayflower.

Slytherin's own wand, a snake-wood staff, was also taken away.

The wand has now grown back into a giant snakewood tree, the only magical snakewood in the world.

"Slytherin is orthodox in the United States?!" Mu En sighed.

Dumbledore also laughed and then ignored the topic.

The two of them walked on the country road and soon stopped in front of a sign.

There were two indicator arrows on the left and right, the one pointing them the way they came said: Great Hangleton, 5 miles. Pointing ahead it read: Little Hangleton, 1 mile.

"Let's go." Mu En turned around: "Is this a wizard village or a mixed village?"

"This is a Muggle village." Dumbledore raised the corner of his mouth: "Because the Gaunt family used to care about ostentation and spent all their money.

So when it came to Riddle's parents' generation, the Gaunt family could only come here to live a poor life while scolding the Muggles.

By the way, they occasionally accept charity from villagers.

Because they really don't know how to do "lower people's work" like plowing the land. "

They walked for a while and couldn't see anything else around them. They only saw tall shrubs on both sides and a dark sky above their heads, indicating that a rain would fall here soon.

Then, the path turned to the left and descended steeply down the hillside. Then, an unobstructed view of the valley appeared in front of them.

Looking further down, a village is nestled between two steep hillsides, with a church and cemetery clearly visible. On the hillside across the valley, there is a very grand house, surrounded by large green lawns.

But they were not going to that village. After striding downward for a while, the path turned to the right. When they turned the corner, Dumbledore took a step forward, got into the fence first, and disappeared.

Mu En also followed him to a narrow dirt road. The hedges on both sides were taller and denser than the ones they passed just now.

When we got here, the scene became weird for no reason. The dirt road was unreasonably winding, full of potholes and rocks. It leads straight down to a small patch of dark woods below.

After not walking far, they came across the bushes, and the house was half hidden among the tangled trees.

The walls were covered with moss, many tiles on the roof had fallen off, and the rafters in the structure of the house were exposed in many places.

Nettles grew thickly around the house, and no one wanted to use them as yard grass, but here the nettles reached up to the windows.

At the same time, a quiet atmosphere also emanated from the room.

Absolute silence, no sound of leaves being blown by the wind, no chirping of small insects.

When the ambient sounds disappeared, a strange feeling naturally came over me.

Mu En was reminded of the scene when Voldemort sneaked into Hogwarts. At that time, Quirrell's wrapped head was also so "empty".

"This is the mansion of the Gaunt family. Where is the mansion of the Del family?"

"In the nearby village." Dumbledore said: "The Riddle family are all Muggles.

So I just agreed with your inference. The reason why Riddle wanted to kill them was probably because he couldn't accept that his father was an inferior existence like a Muggle!

In addition, the Riddle Mansion is now just an ordinary horror house with strange rumors. But here is the real trouble. "

"Okay." Mu En nodded, raised his hand, and a ripple spread out, releasing it forward, immediately chopping up all the nettles that were an eyesore.

But the next moment, the nettles grew wildly again, like some kind of twisted green snake.

But in the blink of an eye, the nettles in the yard returned to their chest-high posture, swaying in the wind.
