Chapter 192 Seven Horcruxes and Seven Souls!
Chapter 193 Seven Horcruxes - Seven Souls!
In the eyes of the law, the diary was filthy, and a thick black gas was gushing out of it. In the center of the diary stood an illusory figure.
I couldn't see the specific appearance, but I could vaguely recognize that it should be a young man, and it also exuded a gloomy ghostly aura.
According to the miscellaneous books my mother gave me, no matter the appearance, shape or performance, it was similar to the seven souls.
The seven souls are the evil spirits of ghosts.
So. Voldemort split his seven souls?
According to the Taoist thought, people have three souls and seven spirits, the soul is the main and the spirit is the auxiliary. When the soul flies away, the person dies like a lamp. Compared with the inheritance and folk legends of those sects in the secular world.
Taoism is a professional counterpart in the field of souls and spirits, and even far exceeds its Western counterparts in this respect.
Even so, the mysterious thing of souls and spirits still only reveals the tip of the iceberg, and there are still many mysteries waiting to be explored.
But one thing is certain, that is, if you want to go further, you can't wait to maintain the state of "no leakage", and you don't even want your wife.
Have you ever seen the operation of splitting the seven souls?
People are divided into two types: body and soul. There are many theories about the three souls, but no matter which theory, it is believed that the three souls are the main ones.
For example, in "Yunji Qiqian", the three souls are called Taiguang, Shuangling, and Youjing.
Taiguang is the master of life, Shuangling is the master of consciousness, and Youjing is the master of desire.
There is another theory that there are three souls, one is the heavenly soul, the second is the earthly soul, and the third is the life soul.
There are seven souls, one is Tianchong, the second is Linghui, the third is Qi, the fourth is Li, the fifth is Zhongshu, the sixth is Jing, and the seventh is Ying.
If one of the three souls is lost, a lot of memories will be lost, and if two souls are lost, it will be either stupid or foolish.
If all three souls are lost, it will be like a walking corpse, not speaking, not eating, not drinking, and not waking up. Even if the body is still alive, it is no different from a dead person.
The Chinese idioms, "disillusioned" and "soul-flying" vividly describe the feeling of losing one's soul.
Zhang Xiao looked at the notebook, and the confusion he had originally had finally dissipated. Many inexplicable questions also had answers at this moment.
No wonder, no wonder.
This was the question he could not understand the most after reading the previous life.
After Voldemort knew that all his Horcruxes were destroyed, why didn't he quickly split another one out, or simply split into dozens or hundreds.
There are many related explanations, such as worshiping the number '7', Voldemort's emphasis on rituals, and Voldemort's excessive 'arrogance', which are somewhat untenable.
From the original book, people like Voldemort value their lives more than anything else.
As long as he can split, he will definitely continue to split.
So the correct answer is. He can only split seven!
If he splits again, he will have to split his soul, and the cost of splitting the soul and splitting the soul is completely different.
If the 7 Horcruxes are seven souls, it also explains another problem.
Why is the contrast between Voldemort before and after so great?
Zhang Xiao still remembers that when Voldemort was in school, he was a handsome young man who was very popular with professors and full of charm.
Even Helena, a thousand-year-old "ghost", could not escape his charm and revealed the crown position of Ravenclaw to him.
In short, Tom went from being a very charming, leadership, talented and intelligent Slytherin.
The earliest Death Eaters were all impressed and truly worshipped by him.
Later, he was like a mentally retarded, like a mentally ill person, and had nothing but strength. What did Voldemort, who had no nose, experience?
The answer is that this big fool split his seven souls! ! ! !
After losing the balance of the seven souls, Tom transformed his body to suppress the physical side effects.
But the mental side effects could not be avoided.
To be honest, with the black magic and the splitting of the seven souls, Zhang Xiao felt that Voldemort was already very powerful for being able to survive.
It can only be said that he is worthy of being a person with extraordinary talent.
Zhang Xiao looked at the diary with a little excitement. This was a situation he had never imagined before, Voldemort's seven souls were in his hands!
Although the damage to the seven souls can't cause him actual harm.
But the Taoist sect can do more things, such as checking the location of Voldemort's other Horcruxes, or beating his villains?
After laughing for a while, Zhang Xiao put away the diary with satisfaction.
Is there anything more gratifying than finding that the big boss has become a fool?
Even when Meliam came to check on him, she was infected by Zhang Xiao's smile and couldn't help but asked with a smile:
"Very good, keeping a happy mood is the best treatment, kid, your friends have been writing to you.
Do you need to show it to you? "
I said, how come I haven't received a letter until now, and I just became a dragon knight in front of the whole school and killed a basilisk with a sword.
Those little wizards won't go crazy?
"That's great, I'm just feeling bored, so please give it all to me!"
Zhang Xiao said with a smile.
"Give it all to you?" Meliam put away the inspection tools, her face a little strange.
"Child, do you know how many there are? Or do you know how famous you are now? Because of you, the mail office at St. Mungo's has been forced to double its staff.
The letters and gifts sent even filled up two warehouses that were expanded with the Untraceable Extension Charm.
I even wonder if wizards all over Europe are writing to you."
Ah? So outrageous?
Zhang Xiao immediately changed his words:
"Please give me the letters from people like Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Navigation Longbottom. By the way, if possible, can you give me a few copies of the Daily Prophet?
Newspapers from the day I entered the hospital. "
Meriam put away the automatic recording quill floating next to her and said with a smile:
"Okay, I'll bring it to you soon."
After a while, the gentle healer came over dragging a large box with his wand and placed it on the ground.
"Thank you!" Zhang Xiao jumped out of bed and couldn't wait to walk to the box.
Meliam blinked at him and said with a smile:
"Kid, enjoy your moment, I have to say, that photo in the newspaper is very handsome!"
When you say that, I become interested! After politely thanking therapist Meliam again.
Zhang Xiao picked up the newspaper and opened it directly to the earliest issue.
The headline on the Daily Prophet was a huge headline:
"The Mysterious Monster Appears in Hogwarts"
Below is a large photo that takes up almost half of the page.
In the photo, a giant snake raises its head and roars on the lake, and in the sky, a Norwegian Ridgeback spreads its wings and hovers in the sky.
Two divine birds soared beside me.
A small figure above the dragon is holding a spear.
It seemed that he noticed someone looking at him.
The giant dragon in the photo suddenly raised its neck and started spitting dragon fire downwards.
Or maybe the photos in the wizarding world are all animated gifs. Although they only last a few seconds, they completely recreate the thrilling scene at that time.
There is also a line of small words in the lower right corner of the photo "This photo is provided by a Hogwarts student"
Zhang Xiao moved his gaze to the report below, skipping the large paragraphs of useless nonsense written by the reporter in front of him to reduce the number of words, and directly found the text:
".The monster lurking in Hogwarts is actually a basilisk!
Perhaps many readers don’t know what a basilisk is. It is a very scary and rare creature.
The reporter of this article consulted a lot of information and finally found the basilisk in a historical record:
“There are many terrible beasts and monsters roaming our country, the most bizarre and lethal of which is the Basilisk, also known as the Snake King.
The basilisk kills in astonishing ways. In addition to its deadly fangs, its glare can also kill.
Anyone caught in its gaze will die immediately.
When the author saw this introduction, I couldn't help but hold my breath. There is such an evil and terrifying monster lurking in Hogwarts.
Fortunately, the little wizards who were attacked were only petrified. As of press time, the author learned that all the little wizards had been released from petrification.
In addition, according to Hogwarts students, the person who opened the secret room was the famous writer Gilderoy Lockhart who had just taken over as acting principal.
However, this news has not yet been confirmed by the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts.
As soon as I got the news, I interviewed Ms. Umbridge, the Deputy Minister of Magic. However, the Deputy Minister refused the interview very bluntly. "
The following report suddenly changed its style:
“Also here, there is shocking, unheard news to share with you all.
When the basilisk was raging and the professors were at their wits' end, a young wizard stood up. Just like in the novel, he mounted a dragon, raised his spear, and led the phoenix to bravely attack the monster!
This little wizard is Xiao Zhang, a second-year student at Hogwarts!
Under the watchful eyes of all the students in the school, he went through an extremely difficult fight, used the transformation spell brilliantly, cut off the basilisk's head, and protected the campus!
According to a Slytherin student who did not want to be named and claimed to have a very good relationship with Zhang, Zhang was very good in his usual campus life.
'Yes, Zhang is very good. He perfectly demonstrates the qualities that a Slytherin should have. He is my mentor and helpful friend.
Yes, Zhang helped me a lot, and I also regard him as a role model. Because of Zhang, I also deliberately learned Chinese——’”
After reading the following paragraphs of praise and descriptions that made people feel goosebumps, Zhang Xiao quickly put down this issue of the newspaper.
I directly browsed the future reports.
There was nothing new. The Ministry of Magic was in a state of confusion due to the basilisk incident. After all, they had just nominated Lockhart to be the Acting Headmaster. In the blink of an eye, he became the mastermind behind the opening of the Chamber of Secrets to attack the young wizards.
Dumbledore was driven away because of the collusion between the Ministry of Magic and Lockhart.
As more and more details were revealed, the Ministry of Magic could no longer keep the lid closed. After all, there were too many witnesses, and Fudge could not seal the mouths of all the little wizards.
Yesterday's issue broke even more shocking news. Dolores Umbridge, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Magic, was exposed to corruption and bribery.
Zhang Xiao's eyes narrowed.
