The Grey Wizard of Hogwarts

(Chapter 335~338 Rewritten Version) Free Chapter: A Sad Song

"It seems like we..."

Anton had a strange expression on his face, "I think too much."

Neville sighed, "I thought that was a lot of money."

Hannah lifted the big hood of the wizard robe, took off the mask, and looked at the barrel-shaped house in front of her with joy, her eyes sparkling, "So we only have this house to consider, right?"

"It seems so."

Anton stared at the house with great interest, colorful swirls appeared in his eyes, and he could clearly see a distorted magic image faintly floating out of the house.

This magical image...

He did.

Dumbledore took him to apparate to a small rocky island by the sea, where there are a large number of magical Erised stones, which will make people have the illusion of meeting a beautiful mermaid.

(See Chapter 260 for details)

Nature is very magical. In addition to the Erised stone, there is a dark creature of the siren that will have similar magic.

Half man, half fish, with fair skin like snowflakes, a stalwart chest and long golden hair, beautiful sea-like crystal clear sea blue eyes, and a small pink mouth.

Possesses the ability to seduce people's desires and transform into human form.

Dark creatures, also known as black magic creatures, are often associated with people's hearts.

When Lupine told Anton about such creatures, he always felt that maybe the black magic creatures were born from human desires.

The best way to defeat dark magical creatures is to rely on the best side of human nature.

The best way to deal with Boggarts, which can change shape arbitrarily and reflect the most frightening scenes in people's hearts, is a happy laugh.

Dementors that can ingest happiness and leave people with only sadness, depression, and pain, the best way to deal with it is to call the happiest and happiest memories and release the Patronus Charm.

Angara, who stimulates the wizard to generate happiness and absorb magic power, needs the wizard to recall the worst picture, and rely on changes to hedge against its control. This represents the resilience of life in the face of fear.

And the three-headed dog, silently...

Similarly, the siren, which symbolizes human desire, needs fearless courage and perseverance to face it, as well as restraining the greed in the heart.

The most ironic thing is that those who are hurt by dark creatures like sea monsters are often the most greedy people in the world - pirates. (Lupin's statement.)

They are like a mirror of the world, reflecting all humanity, waiting for the good to get the treasure and the bad to be punished.

But Lupine also said that people's hearts are complicated, we can't always be kind, and bad people don't always have to be killed, so there is the knowledge of black magic biological defense.

Wisdom is always the key to open the door to progress.

Anton liked that statement.

He looked at the house, with a slight hook on the corner of his mouth, "Interesting."

He seems to have seen the waves, the night when the bright moon rises into the sky, the moonlight rippling with the sea, beating against the rocks. The siren sat on the reef, hugged his bruised body with his hands, and hummed sadly.

Ge'er followed the waves, and passed to the distance faintly.

With mournful sadness, with resolute yearning, with inexplicable fear...

It's complicated, but it shouldn't hurt.

On the contrary, it will give people a feeling of being comforted. This is a siren with a particularly pure heart. As long as you listen carefully, you can really get spiritual relief.

The effect is similar to the "Mother Tom's Embrace" spell, although it is much weakened.

Of course, in the eyes of ordinary people, this thing is a haunted house, and ordinary people can only hear it when their hearts are softest in their sleep.

Tut tut...

Very good, very wizard style.

Anton fell in love with it instantly.

At this moment, Neville's arms suddenly lit up, and he quickly took out a crystal ball from it, only to see a bright red mouth grew out of the crystal ball, making the sound of 'Abaaaba'.

"George and the others are here."

The crystal ball was Neville's invention.

Yes, Neville.

It is said that birds of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups, or under the influence of friends around him, Neville also started to make some inventions.

This kind of crystal ball is in pairs, as long as the two are close together, they will emit light.

Very convenient for meeting friends.

The seemingly miraculous thing was actually made by Neville using a herb called fluorescent lovegrass from the bottom of the Black Lake. The two kinds of fluorescent grasses, male and female, will glow when they are close to each other, hence the name.

It worked so well that the Aurors ordered a lot.

The only disadvantage is that this crystal ball is a living thing and needs to be soaked in water every two days, otherwise the aquatic plants inside will lose their activity.

As for the sound of 'Abaaaba', Anton helped make it, an interesting little magic.

Sensing light to make sound, this is the youthful version of the crude version of the activation spell.

"Oh, that's a cool look!" George seemed to like the house, too.

"And it's still risky. We can explore and see why it's so cheap." Fred rubbed his hands excitedly.

Adventure, this is a wonderful word. Hannah herself is interested in this house, and the Gryffindors are even more excited.

But Anton was much more stable.

He raised the list in his hand, "This house has an owner, without his consent, we are not suitable for trespassing."

The owner of this barrel-shaped house is a strong man with a beard and a bald head.

Smelling of alcohol, he walked over with sleepy eyes, staggering, as if he hadn't slept well.

Well, he probably really didn't sleep well.

Anton stared at him with a smile, then looked back at the house, and found that the magical image that resembled the singing of a siren enveloped the strong man.

With an inexplicable and strange fluctuation.

In simple terms, the man was cursed by a siren.

George, Fred and Hannah didn't feel anything yet, but Neville frowned for some reason, feeling uncomfortable.

As his understanding of the Cruciatus Curse deepened, he had a unique sensitivity to fluctuations at the spiritual level, and this person gave him a particularly bad feeling.

"It's you kids who want to buy a house?" The brawny man felt that he had been cheated and was a little angry.

"certainly."

Anton didn't know when there was a huge burlap sack beside him. With a slight push, gold Galleons spilled out.

In the pure white snow, the gold coins shone with charming golden light, jumping and rolling.

"Merlin's beard!"

The strong man rushed to the ground excitedly, hugged a large number of gold coins, picked up one, stroked it, and instantly felt the texture of Jin Gallon's unique fairy magic gold coins.

Snapped!

Anton snapped his fingers lightly.

As if going back in time, Jin Jialong jumped and ran back into the sack.

The Jin Gallon in the strong man's hand trembled wildly, jumped, and finally broke free from his fingers, rolled to the ground, and rolled towards the sack as if impatiently.

With his greedy eyes following, Jin Jialong jumped back into the embrace of the sack.

Snapped!

There was another snap of the fingers, and the eyes of the people around were dazzled, and the sack disappeared, as if it didn't know when it would appear.

Anton rubbed his wand with a smile, "Only if your house satisfies us, sir."

The strong man swallowed, looked at these little kids, and suddenly laughed, "Of course, of course, I..."

Shh~

A spell of light lit up.

Brushing the strong man's beard, he leaned towards the big tree beside him.

boom!

The big tree fell with heavy snow, blowing snowflakes on the ground.

His eyes widened, he swallowed, and a drop of cold sweat slowly dripped from his forehead. I touched my own neck, oh, it's still there, that's great.

Fortunately, fortunately, this horrible spell did not cut off his own neck.

He turned his head stiffly to look at the cross-section of the big tree, it was so smooth and sharp.

"What do you mean?" His voice became extremely dry.

Anton looked innocent and looked extremely cute and cute, "I hope you don't hold the wand secretly, it will make me misunderstand, sir, I think we can complete the transaction in a cordial and friendly atmosphere."

Seeing the strong man put down his arms resentfully, "Very good."

"Open the door, it's a shame to waste your time."

Compared with the house, Anton is more interested in the weird siren curse on the house.

Following the strong man towards the house, Anton quietly made a gesture, which was a gesture they discussed after they learned from the Aurors to explore the formation.

According to the agreement, if encountering a situation that may be dangerous, Anton, who is good at judging the situation, walks in the front, followed by George to respond, and Fred is diagonally behind, as a response.

Hannah watched for the attack from behind, while Neville took care of the finale.

As Anton said, Neville has enough talent, he needs tempering, confidence, and responsibility, so that he can truly grow into a warrior in the cabin.

Under the guidance of the Aurors, they studied a lot of formations and planned to use them when they explored.

Once they chatted and talked about their respective dreams. The twins said they wanted to run a joke shop. Hannah didn't have a definite answer. Anton liked travel and food, but Neville said that he wanted to be an Auror like his parents.

This is not an easy task.

But he has made an effort so far.

Neville was at the end of the line, his round face was full of seriousness, and he stared nervously around.

At this moment, he heard the voice of the strong man cursing, and his whole body tensed up instantly.

He hesitated for a moment, and chose to trust Anton's judgment. He first observed everything outside the door, then raised his head and looked up along the wall, observing for a while, especially looking inward through the stone gaps in the house, and then walked to the threshold of the gate The place pulled over and stopped.

The center of gravity moved down, which was taught by an uncle Auror, to maintain the mobility to hide on both sides of the cover at any time.

It has been exactly one year since he joined the hut after Christmas last year, and the young Neville has gradually shown the stability and alertness that a soldier should have.

But when he looked up into the room, he almost screamed out in fright.

He would have screamed had it not been for Hannah's grasp of his arm, her pale, terrified look so masculine.

Just standing by the door, there is a warm air with a moist breath, as if a sauna is running in this snowy house.

In such an environment, Neville, who was learning the medicinal properties of herbs, immediately judged that it must be especially suitable for the growth of some magical plants.

And these magical plants will definitely attract some magical animals to live here.

Fantastic animals are not seen, but magical plants are simply dazzling.

Dark gray palms pierced the ground and stretched upwards, looking particularly terrifying in the dark hall.

Gray fingers seem to drag humans into hell.

But Neville knew that this was the 'Revenant Finger' (Cytramorpha polymorpha), a rare potion material, non-toxic, it could be used to treat headaches, and it was also an important ingredient in many potions.

And these fingers are just some small embellishments in this horrible house.

"Damn! Damn! Damn!" The bearded, bald man raised his big feet high, and used his thick high-top hiking boots to step on his fingers on the ground.

George looked at Fred with a strange expression, and pointed to the fleshy ears growing on the wall, which were more like real ears than their retractable ears, and the blood-red intestines in the fireplace...

In the middle of the hall, a brain as big as a round dining table is slowly secreting blood that emits a strange aroma.

In every corner, the bar, the lamp stand, and the corner, there are mushroom-like things growing, and thick black ink is constantly dripping.

"I just cleaned it last month!" The bearded, bald man rushed to the corner angrily, picked up a shovel, and was about to dig out the super brain in the middle.

The corners of Anton's eyes twitched, and he waved his wand around him.

This 'Anger's Bleeding Brain' (Pythonium pectoris) is an extremely precious potion material. The price comes second. The key is the kind that you can’t find when you want to find it. Even if it is the channel through which Rozier mobilized the family, you may not be able to collect it.

He just glanced at it and judged a large number of magical plants such as mushroom spores.

For example, the "color-changing wind bird" that most people can't see, several groups are floating in the air.

There is also a fungus dripping black liquid, which is the "fallen temptation" (ink ghost umbrella) commonly used in ritual magic.

The intestines in the fireplace should be the 'Michitoxin worm' (flesh lac fungus). As long as this herb is detoxified, it is the best all-purpose trauma medicine.

The more normal ones here are those on the wall that look like real people's ears, which are very common fungus.

Pink and tender, fleshy, looks very attractive.

This kind of ordinary fungus affected by magic is very different from the fungus in the Muggle world in terms of taste.

I heard from the owner of the house, a bald man, that he cleaned it up a month ago, which means that it is particularly easy to breed these herbs here, and it is a treasure land.

The strong man roared, "Put down the wand, or I'll kill you with a shovel!"

"Disarm you!"

With a light word, the shovel in the strong man's hand flew up, and fell to the ground with a thud.

"This place..."

Anton raised his eyebrows, "I'm very interested."

"Really?" The strong man's beard twitched, and his face showed surprise. He has been listing this damn place for more than ten years. If he hadn't been forced by gambling debts, he would have even wanted to abandon this house directly. never mind.

No one wants it at all, this place seems to be cursed by the devil, and just like this, he will follow him. As long as someone comes to see the house, there will always be a lot of moths.

"Yes, I'm very interested..." Anton kicked his gray palm, only to see that one of the fingers was broken, and bright red juice spewed out, which confirmed his judgment even more.

"This place really looks like a haunted house."

He clicked his tongue, "I like it."

Oh huh~

The strong man's eyes lit up, it's good to like it, it's wonderful to like it, he bent down, rubbed his hands together, and asked in a flattering tone, "Then let's make a deal like this?"

Anton looked at the friends. George and Fred had already snapped off a piece of green tongue to play with each other in surprise. Hannah also ran in in surprise and squatted in front of the bleeding brain to observe...

"!!!"

The corner of Anton's mouth twitched, he was really powerless to complain, what about the agreed formation?

He looked up and saw Neville standing by the door holding his wand seriously, he couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction in his heart, this kid was still reliable.

"Yes!"

This brawny man doesn't know anything. The friends are all children who love to read and have excellent insights. They will naturally know how precious this place is.

"Great, I'm finally going to sell this shitty place." The strong man roared angrily, but Anton suddenly narrowed his eyes and waved his wand.

Phew~~~

It was that extremely sharp spell again, moving upwards along his smooth head, only to hear a rattling sound, and a vine fell to the ground.

Anton's complexion changed, and he waved his wand again, "Armor protection!"

For this Iron Armor Curse, he used the principle of the Bubble Head Curse to cast the curse on the vines.

Only the sound of popping popping was heard, and the poisonous thorns of the vines splashed all around, hitting the Iron Armor Curse and falling off.

Just now, when the strong man was determined to sell the wine barrel house, the siren curse on his body fluctuated instantly, and the vine rushed down along the ceiling.

And it wasn't the strong man, it was Anton.

"All petrochemical ~"

Shh~

The light of the curse quickly diffused around like a mist, and in just an instant, a large number of vines surrounded the place.

Behind the petrified vines, countless vines surged, as if they wanted to completely strangle everyone here.

Anton's heart moved, he pulled the strong man to his side, and threw it to George and the others behind him.

"It's poisonous tentacles, be careful of their poisonous stingers, and quickly use the Iron Armor Curse."

The vines were extremely fast, and Neville by the door just had time to dodge their attacks before being blocked from the door, "Fire!" Anton could faintly hear the roar of Neville releasing the spell.

"Merlin's beard!"

The strong man wailed, "It's coming again, it's coming again, as long as someone wants to buy a house, there will be problems. It's like being cursed by the devil!"

He sat down with a snap, and crushed a gray palm under his buttocks, and the dark red juice flowed out.

Anton squinted his eyes and looked around, frowning.

Don't think that this thing is not scary just because he has several elephant-eating vines. There are countless powerful wizards who have been killed by poisonous tentacles in history. For example, Professor McGonagall's husband died under its poisonous stinger.

Anton had read the records. The husband of Professor McGonagall, Elphinstone Urquhart, was a senior official of the Ministry of Magic and a member of a pure-blood family, not an ordinary wizard.

The devil's web and the poisonous tentacles, except that they look like cute babies in front of Professor Sprout, are actually acromanders comparable to Hagrid.

(As an aside, many people don’t understand that the school would allow Hagrid to keep such dangerous creatures in the Forbidden Forest. In fact, the ones raised by Professor Sprout are even worse, such as Mander, who will die when he hears the cry Pulling weeds. The danger of sneaking into the Forbidden Forest to encounter an acromantia is not much different from climbing over the wall to Professor Sprout's greenhouse.)

As for Anton's ability to raise the 'Elephant Elephant Vine' that most people can't keep alive, apart from his understanding of herbal medicine and potions, there is another secret that is unknown.

That is the 'Imperishable Curse' of the three unforgivable curses.

Yes, Anton used the 'Soul Imperius Curse' on the Elephant Elephant Vine to make it cute and cute. Later, Anton's understanding of memory became more and more in-depth, and he even used the "Forgetting Curse" to perform a soul surgery on the Elephant Elephant Vine.

This is the deepest secret, and he hasn't told anyone.

The importance of Elephant Elephant Vine to Anton is far beyond anyone's imagination.

"What's going on?" Anton kept releasing the body-binding spell, and turned to look at the strong man.

The strong man didn't answer, just muttered in frustration and beat the ground angrily.

"..."

Anton's left hand in the sleeve of the wizard's robe lightly flicked, touched the hidden button, and a wand fell into his palm.

Shake and wave gently.

"Uncle, it's okay, it's okay."

His voice seemed to have magical powers, and the bearded, bald-headed brawny man couldn't hold back immediately, completely broke his defenses, and cried like a child weighing three hundred catties.

"Woooooo~~~~"

Not to mention, this kind of crying is especially emotional when combined with the scary things in the dark environment.

...

...

The bearded, bald man's name was Bach Bierhoff, and in his youth he was a saint.

Not quite a saint, either, when the man was a skinny tattooed youth wandering around looking for opportunities, eager to soar into the sky by luck.

When Grindelwald was making waves in the international arena, Bach responded to Lao Ge's call and fought for the wizard.

In less than half a year, Lao Ge was imprisoned, and Bach could only continue to wander.

I don't know whether it was luck or misfortune, but the pirate ship he was on encountered a sea monster.

He had a fight with someone that day, was petrified with a body-binding spell, and was thrown on the deck. The other party said that as long as he survived the coming storm, he would be allowed to enter the cabin to drink something warm.

It also helped him put on an extremely handsome pose on the deck.

Fortunately, he did not die, unfortunately, the pirates on board all killed each other.

The singing of the sea monster can always arouse the greed and murderous desire in the human heart.

He was the only one who stood motionless in the face of the violent storm and the sight of gold, silver and treasures.

So determined!

The siren was moved, she took the initiative to climb onto the deck, and transformed into the most beautiful beauty in the world, wearing tulle wetted by sea water, dancing the hottest dance in the world in front of him.

The man remained unmoved.

As a result, the Kraken completely fell.

The sea monster controlled the waves and sent this beloved great man back to land, left him a lot of jewels, and then...

Then, when he was about to kiss goodbye, the influence of the body-binding spell on Bach was finally lifted. He looked greedily at the siren, and quietly took out his wand.

Thus, the Kraken became his money-making tool.

Since then, Bach seems to have had good luck, taking this pet to various carnival circuses, and finally managed to save enough money to retire gloriously when he turned 30.

After retiring, Bach couldn't stay idle, and used this singing siren to open a bar. In the days when the wizarding world returned to peace after Grindelwald's defeat, he always attracted people who became wanton and indulgent.

Business is booming, the warehouse is full of gallons, Bach meets the hottest girl again, and finally decides to start a family.

On the day of the wedding, the bar was very lively.

The dance of the sea monster swayed gently, and the song of the sea monster was gentle and mesmerizing, like a song like weeping.

People looked at Bach with envy.

He hugged his wife very proudly.

He didn't notice that the sea monster was looking at him sadly, with such obsession, such heartache, and such confusion.

Then……

The barrel-shaped bar caught fire, and everyone escaped except Bach's wife, the siren, and all the wealth kept in the bar, all drowned in the flames.

It was like a dream together, except for this dilapidated bar with weird situations happening from time to time, Bach returned to a state of nothing.

Oh~ It can’t be said to go back to the previous state. Today’s Bach is simply full of bad luck, and every few years will encounter an accident that affects his life.

It was also fate, and he escaped the threat of death time and time again.

Bach didn't want to stay in this ghost place at all. He felt that this burning bar brought his bad luck.

As long as he sells the house, he can get a lot of money, leave this sad place, and start his life anew.

This sale has lasted for many years.

Bad luck is entangled, and any desire that bursts out of the heart, the stronger it is, the more it will be hindered by fate.

...

After listening to Bach's narration, everyone was silent, and Hannah wiped her tears vigorously. Listening to other people's stories, shedding my own tears, my heart is full of mixed feelings.

Anton pouted, and gently retracted his wand with his left hand.

I have to say that the Forgetting Curse is really easy to use. You only need to modify the memory a little bit, retrieve a little bit of drunken memory fragments, and let this bearded and bald man think that he has met a friend who can talk about everything. It is not too easy to dig out the story .

I don't know if Professor Lockhart has done this before.

"Let's go."

Bach looked sadly at the weird things all over the floor and the poisonous tentacles spreading from the second floor, "As long as you say 'don't want to buy', all the situations will disappear."

George and Fred looked at each other, not knowing what to say, Hannah looked at the place regretfully, and everyone finally looked at Anton.

Although Anton is always trying to create an atmosphere where everyone gets along with each other on an equal footing, in fact, everyone has long been used to letting Anton make decisions.

Anton chuckled, "Let's go?"

He gently raised his arm, "I said, I like this place, I want to buy it, it cannot be changed!"

"Poisonous tentacles are not suitable for living in Hogsmeade Village. This place is snowed all year round, so it is not suitable for its survival at all."

"If it wasn't for such a warm and humid place, this one would have died long ago!"

"That is to say..."

Anton also raised his left hand, his hands were dancing lightly, and his body was shaking slightly, as if he was directing something.

"Let's have some levitating spells, some moving figurines, plus transfiguration..."

He murmured softly.

There was only a bang outside the house, and the poisonous tentacles began to twist wildly.

...

"Fire!" Neville waved his wand with a serious face, letting balls of flames burn towards the poisonous tentacles. This is a method written in the herbal medicine introduction books to deal with this plant.

The high-temperature flame can burn the stinger of the poisonous tentacles, avoiding the danger of the wizard being attacked by the poison.

The only disadvantage is that if the power of the flame spell is not enough, it is easy to form a stalemate with the poisonous tentacles.

Neville was well aware of his own strength. It was impossible for him to defeat this poisonous tentacles. He only needed to burn a channel through which Anton and the others could escape.

I can do it!

Anton said, as long as you go forward bravely, you will have nothing to fear!

Neville roared, and more flames spewed out from his wand. He could see that the poisonous tentacles were writhing in the flames, and the sap dripping from the burn had begun to decrease.

As long as you work harder, either a hole will be burned completely, or the poisonous tentacles will automatically evade and let Anton and the others get out.

At this moment, the snow beside him suddenly shook.

Boom!

The snowflakes began to spin rapidly on the ground amidst the cold air, turning into a terrifying ice and snow python.

The giant python twisted its body and swam towards the wine barrel room, its body becoming more and more solid.

Neville knew that it must be Anton's spell, so he quickly revoked the flame spell, and stared nervously at the door with his wand in his hand.

The giant python didn't seem to have much physical power. It shattered instantly when it hit the poisonous tentacles, and turned into vigorous snowflakes and cold air again.

The cold air surged through the gaps in the poisonous tentacles, forcing it back in just an instant.

inside the house.

Anton touched the body-binding spell, allowing the poisonous tentacles to move.

The vines twisted and contracted rapidly, and were forced to retreat by the big snake made of cold air and snowflakes. Gradually, they returned to the stairs, and gradually retreated towards the second floor.

This is an interesting little trick to control the growth range of magical plants in an extremely cold environment.

Anton's heart moved, and he followed.

A gust of cold wind surged under his feet, lifted him to the body of the giant cold wind python, and carried him all the way to the second floor.

The second floor is still as spacious as the first floor. It should have been used as a bar in the past without any partitions. The dilapidated seats tell the story of the prosperity of the year.

This poisonous tentacle has obviously lived here for a long time.

The roots and vines are digging into the walls, and that's what's causing the house to crack.

Poison tentacles are produced all over the world, but Hogsmeade is definitely not included. It snows here all year round (already very close to the North Pole), and it is impossible to feed poisonous tentacles that like warm and humid air.

It should be that the poisonous tentacles crawled in after the sea monster cursed here.

As for things with roots like hairy poisonous tentacles that can crawl in by themselves, this is very interesting.

Anton squinted his eyes and looked towards the deepest part of the almost opaque second floor.

There is a huge human-shaped wood tumor at the root system. A middle-aged man seems to be inlaid on the wood tumor, and half of his cheeks have turned into wooden lines.

parasitic!

It is also an extremely vicious curse, using highly poisonous substances to kill humans, and then letting the seeds enter the human body to parasitize, completely sealing the opponent's soul in the body.

"Great, finally came across a fairy tale I've heard of."

Anton observed with interest and let out a sigh.

The evil queen made a poisoned apple out of witchcraft, and transformed into an old witch to coax Snow White into eating it and became Sleeping Beauty.

It is said to be Sleeping Beauty, but in fact it is just a living dead. After a long time, the seeds of the poisonous apple will take root and sprout in Snow White's body, grow out of her body, and become a fruit tree full of poisonous apples.

There is only one antidote for this weird curse, an affectionate kiss.

This is simply the most vicious curse on single dogs.

Of course, for the wizarding world, which is particularly fond of heavy-tasting fairy tales, this kind of curse is called "waiting for true love" and "life suspension magic".

At some point in the Middle Ages, it was popular in the wizarding world to cast this curse on themselves to test whether their lovers really loved them. If you don't love it, I'll show you to death!

When Anton saw it in the restricted area of ​​the school library, there was an extremely interesting message recorded in the book. The two lovers cast this curse on themselves in a tacit understanding, and then asked the owl to deliver a letter to each other.

Then an interesting and sad scene appeared-two owls ran in both directions, but only found two living dead.

These two loyal pets flew around the two growing apple trees without leaving, and eventually gave birth to a brood of young owls.

Anton is not interested in who is embedded in the poisonous tentacles.

He just knew that the trouble in this broken place was not ordinary.

Correspondingly, the benefits are absolutely huge.

You don't even need to look to see if there are any other ghosts and ghosts on the third floor. If you just talk about the excellent quality and fast-growing mushrooms in the lobby on the first floor, you will know that this place is definitely a treasure.

They are all precious treasures.

You know, the price of each leaf of the poisonous tentacles is worth 10 Galleons!

Just as the poisonous tentacles filled up a hundred or so square meters on the second floor, Anton could hardly count how many there were.

"Buy one get one free?"

Anton raised his eyebrows.

"Consider it as a reward for freeing Bach from the curse of the siren."

Although the siren's curse is only aimed at Bach, it has been completely integrated with this house. If someone becomes the new owner of the house, her curse will be offset.

Offset to this house.

Without Anton's purchase, maybe after Bach died of old age or an accident, this place would become a haunted house that everyone will change their faces.

There are many such strange houses in the wizarding world, waiting for adventure hunters.

To deal with this kind of trouble, you still need to prepare some ritual magic.

Including this poisonous tentacles, scratching its poisonous stinger just a little bit is definitely waiting for death. It is extremely dangerous. After removing the leaves, we must find a way to eradicate them.

This thing is not as easy to use as the Elephant Vine, and Anton has no interest in studying its characteristics and making new changes.

The cold wind python changed again, turning into a snowman, clumsily dragging the dilapidated seat, and sealing the stairway on the second floor little by little.

...

The transaction went smoothly, Anton and the others obtained all the procedures for the house, and Bach got a sack full of Galleons.

Brilliant, very beautiful.

The obsessive golden light shone on his face, and for a moment, he felt that his whole life had been sublimated.

Pay off all the debts, and he can leave a lot of money.

Bach glanced at the powerful little wizard, rolled his eyes, and led them around a little way to the casino to pay off their gambling debts.

Such a good bodyguard is simply useless.

Anton looked at his back with a smile, and did not refuse, intending to let others pass on the news that Bach had sold the house.

"That rundown house of yours is actually sold?" A man in a bearskin coat looked at Anton and the others from a distance, and exclaimed in disbelief.

Bach seemed to be in a particularly good mood, he laughed and cursed, carried the remaining Gallon on his shoulders, and led Anton back to the wine barrel hut.

"Then it belongs to you."

While Bach breathed a sigh of relief, he also had a lot of emotion.

Hannah looked at him curiously and asked, "Are you leaving here?"

She has the habit of recording all kinds of interesting things in the cabin, especially the fate of Bach, which is very embarrassing.

"Yes, I'm leaving this damn place, haha." Bach tugged at the burlap bag on his back, his face gradually relaxed.

Anton ignored him. Since the transaction was completed, the curse on Bach disappeared as expected.

And this house gradually began to exude an ethereal and distant sadness.

Close your eyes and listen carefully, you can already hear the vague singing through ordinary ears.

The siren sang sadly.

Bach turned around and left, not knowing what he was thinking of, and turned back to find Anton.

"I have a secret. I was hoping to rely on it to get over it, but I haven't been able to find a chance." Bach looked mysterious. "I don't want to get close to this place anymore. I guess the secret doesn't have much use, so I'll tell you."

Anton sighed towards the house, shook his head slightly, and glanced at Bach, "We have no money, sir."

Bach laughed loudly, "I don't need money, and I don't know why, I started to become less greedy. I think since I want to leave here, I might as well leave this secret here, and make a thorough settlement."

Anton didn't show much interest, but just nodded slightly.

"You are students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, right?"

Anton frowned and looked at him without speaking.

Although everyone has guessed that Hogwarts is next to Hogsmeade Village, after all, school professors and students can often be seen here, but no one can be very sure that it must be nearby.

Students are not allowed to disclose the specific location of the school to outsiders, this is a school rule.

Oh~ Although Anton doesn't know how many school rules he violated, he still knows the seriousness.

Bach smiled and saw other children also gathered around, so he looked around and whispered, "Professor McGonagall's husband was killed by poisonous tentacles. It was actually done by a witch. There is a mole on his forehead."

"Professor McGonagall has a husband?" Several friends exclaimed.

Anton frowned and looked at Bach, "That's it?"

Bach smiled mysteriously, "Of course not."

He kind of enjoyed the way everyone was waiting for him to speak. The last time he felt valued was when he was a bar owner decades ago.

But, he weighed the sack in his hand, felt the wonderful touch of Jin Gallon's impact, and smiled extraordinarily happily.

He plans to find a place to make a comeback, the money is enough for him to open another bar, there are too many places where houses are not expensive, the devil would like to stay here.

"The news just now was just a bonus. The biggest secret is that Professor McGonagall's husband is not dead!"

Anton's eyes widened, and he took a breath, "This is not something to joke about!"

Bach patted his chest vigorously, "How could I lie to you, although I was drunk that night, seeing a dead person walking on the street again, let alone how scared I was, I woke up from the alcohol! "

"!!!"

Anton stared into his eyes, "What about her husband? Where did he go?"

Bach pursed his lips and shook his head, "I haven't seen him since then."
