Chapter 809 Fear, escape, death
In view of the extraordinary five senses, Anduin heard the flirting sounds of the warblers and swallows in the stone house clearly. At this time, he only felt dizzy for a while, and at the same time, he also felt a nausea in his stomach. It was broken by the diaphragm.
Anduin knew that he couldn't wait any longer, and he didn't know how long it would take until the young couple finished their work and left.
So he slowly swayed to the window of the stone house, and silently chanted a spell to the two people inside, and after a while the young wizards fell into a deep sleep.
"It's finally clean..." Anduin shook his head helplessly, now he finally knew why Snape was so strict with those students who went out at night, these young lovers were really annoying.
After clearing away possible witnesses, Anduin immediately took action. He first installed several shielding jammers around the square to ensure that the sound and sight here would not be transmitted.
Then he came to the snake tree, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the trunk, and soon he sensed the blood-like, constantly surging magic power in the tree.
This magical power was much stronger than he had imagined, and it was far beyond what ordinary magical trees could match. Obviously, this snake tree has also benefited a lot in the past few hundred years.
The discovery in front of him made Anduin very excited. This snake tree is really extraordinary. It seems that the legend in the intelligence is true, and it has sufficient magic power support, which is also very good for awakening it.
"wake up!"
Anduin leaned closer to the tree trunk, whispering a slightly hoarse snake language in his mouth, while concentrating on feeling the magic changes in the snake wood.
In the entire language system of Parseltongue, the vocabulary is not too much, and most of them are simple and straightforward. This endows Parseltongue with mysterious power, and after knowing enough, it does not seem to have many secrets.
This is why anyone who uses Parseltongue can easily open the secret room.
After the sound, the whole snake tree was just like an ordinary tree, without any change.
And within Anduin's perception, the magic power in the opponent's body is also the same as before, full of power but moving very regularly.
Am I using the wrong vocabulary?
But this is the only word with the meaning of awakening...
Anduin frowned inexplicably, then as if thinking of something, he immediately changed his tone and whispered.
"Gormlaith Gaunt!"
"Isolt Thayer!"
"Salazar Slytherin!"
Anduin thinks that maybe we should start from the other party's memory point and touch on the deeper memory of the snake wood first, which is similar to calling an unconscious vegetative person.
So he kept repeating the name of the former owner of the snakewood wand, testing the opponent's reaction.
And doing so really produced an effect. Although the other party didn't see anything from the outside, when Anduin called out Slytherin's name, the magic power in Snake Wood's body obviously had a slight pause.
Anduin, who found the abnormality, was shocked, and then began to call repeatedly.
"Salazar Slytherin! Salazar Slytherin! Salazar Slytherin!"
"Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!"
Under the continuous cry, the snake wood seemed to be stimulated by something, the flow of magic power in the body suddenly accelerated, and even the tree body trembled slightly.
"Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!"
After going on like this for a few minutes, finally, as if reaching a certain critical point, the snakewood branch in front of him suddenly stretched out, just like someone stretching after waking up.
And the magic power in the opponent's body also accelerated sharply from before, and suddenly regained its stability.
Anduin knew that this was a sign of Snakewood's real sobriety, so he stopped calling and muttered softly in Parseltongue, "Hello!"
"?"
Neither the snake wood in front of him nor the magic wand from before can actually speak, but this does not mean that the other party has no simple consciousness.
For example, now, Anduin has captured a telepathy, and it seems that the other party has sensed his greeting.
But obviously there is no way to make a particularly clear response, just send out a similar inquiry, or a signal of doubt.
Anduin guessed that the other party should be asking who he is and what he wants to do, so he quickly added in Parseltongue, "I am a student of Salazar Slytherin. I came from my hometown to pursue Sarah. Check out the past after leaving Hogwarts."
He estimated that Shemu's intelligence should not have reached the level of the Sorting Hat, and his comprehension ability may be limited, so he tried to use concise language to clarify his identity and purpose.
"Heir?"
Seemingly fully awake, Shemu responded in an orderly manner after listening to Anduin's words.
Anduin couldn't help but fell silent when he heard the words. The other party was obviously asking him if he was the heir of Slytherin.
In this regard, Anduin seemed a little hesitant.
Although he is a wizard from Slytherin House, he has no direct blood relationship with Salazar.
But based on Anduin's understanding of Salazar, the other party is not the pure-blood supremacist that people imagined, so the definition of heirs does not require blood relatives at all.
Anduin inspected himself, and found that he and Salazar were very compatible in terms of philosophy and character, so there was no problem insisting that he was the heir.
"Yes and no!"
After thinking about it, Anduin could only give an ambiguous answer. Under this kind of pure spiritual communication, it is very difficult to deceive the other party through lies.
Therefore, he can only say what he thinks is the most sincere answer based on his self-cognition.
"A fellow traveler?"
Shemu felt Anduin's emotional changes. After a period of simple thinking, she seemed to understand what the other party meant, so she also gave her own definition of Anduin.
"That's understandable."
Anduin found that the snake wood in front of him was... smarter than he imagined, and he could even express such a complicated concept clearly.
"it is good!"
After confirming Anduin's identity, Shemu replied a short message.
But Anduin was a little confused about this, what does 'good' mean?Is this a promise to help me?Or just a casual answer?
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the other party's thoughts should not be complicated, so it probably meant agreement.
After thinking it over, Anduin went straight to the point, "So what happened to Salazar after he left school?"
"Owner……"
After hearing Anduin's question, Shemu murmured first, and then fell silent, as if recalling something.
But it seemed that it was silent for a very long time due to the long time, but Anduin was very patient during this period, and did not urge him.
And after a while, the magic power connected to the trunk of the snake wood seemed to be out of control, and it trembled violently, and at the same time, a clear and excited mental wave also came out.
"Fear, flee, die!"
"Fear, escape, death?" Anduin instinctively repeated the other party's answer, and at the same time fell into thinking.
When he heard this answer, Anduin knew that he should have found the right target. Although Snake Wood's reply was very short, it contained a lot of information.
Fear probably corresponds to Haierbo, who is already a master of spiritual magic and black magic. Nick Flamel also said that the place where Haierbo is is shrouded in fear.
Although the specific content of Shemu's words is unknown, the general meaning is still easy to figure out.
It should be that Salazar discovered fear, or came to a place full of fear. Of course, it is also possible that Salazar was affected by fear.
But Salazar himself is also a master of thinking magic who is proficient in Legilimency, so it is unlikely that he will be disturbed by fear.
The escape should refer to the fact that Salazar had a conflict after being exposed to fear, or bumped into Hai Erbo head-on, and then lost to the enemy and fled.
Hai Erbo thousands of years ago should not be as strong as when Nick met him hundreds of years ago, and Salazar himself is also a strong man, so the possibility of encountering and successfully escaping is indeed very high.
As for death, it definitely wasn't Hai Erbo, this guy still bumped into Nick for a while after hundreds of years.
Then, it might be Salazar Slytherin himself who died.
Could it be that he escaped in the conflict with Hai Erbo, but died in the end?Was it badly wounded in battle?Or was it infected with some curse or virus?
After thinking about it for a long time, he found that this is the only explanation that is more reasonable, but the details have different meanings.
If he died due to serious injuries, it can only be said that Hai Erbo might be stronger than imagined, even Salazar in the period of complete victory could not retreat unscathed, you must know that Hai Erbo was still thousands of years ago.
And if the death is due to an infection or a curse, it means that the opponent's main abilities should be concentrated on the virus and the curse, so when in contact with the opponent, you have to be extremely careful, otherwise you may be overwhelmed if you are negligent. .
"Fear, where is it?"
After brainstorming and roughly translating Shemu's answer, Anduin asked the question he was most concerned about, which was Haierbo's location.
Of course, Shemu might not be able to understand directly asking them where they met Haierbo back then, so they could only ask where the fear was.
"there."
Snakewood seemed to understand what Anduin was asking, but its answer was confusing.
where is it?
To be honest, Anduin really wanted to ask this question, but he also knew that although Snakewood looks very smart, but the communication is only concentrated in a small area, it is probably unrealistic to let it say the specific place name, people may Didn't even know where that was.
After figuring this out, Anduin changed his mind and asked a different way, "Fear, which direction is Hogwarts, east? North? South or west?"
"Over there..." Shemu didn't seem to understand such a simple question, why did the other party ask so many times, so the emotion when answering was not as excited as it was at the beginning.
"Uh……"
Anduin fell silent again when he heard the words, the other party's answer was really direct enough, did he wish he could understand?Where the hell is that?
It seems that not only is the specific location of this snake tree unclear, but it also has no sense of direction at all.
Thinking of this, he wished he could use Legilimency on Snakewood, but Anduin's Legilimency was not strong enough to pry into the thoughts of non-living things, otherwise it would be so troublesome to ask every word.
"Fellow traveler!"
And just when Anduin was thinking wildly, a mental wave suddenly came from the snake wood, calling out to him.
"What? Did you think of anything else?" Anduin thought that Snake Wood had suddenly enlightened and knew how to point the way, so he quickly responded.
"Get rid of fear and take revenge!"
The mental fluctuations emitted by Shemu at this time are filled with an indomitable momentum, making people feel that what is in front of them is not a tree, but a sharp weapon.
"This is also my purpose." Anduin replied seriously, "Don't worry, I will kill that guy completely, and this is not just to avenge Salazar."
"Okay, fellow travelers, let's take revenge together!" It seemed that Anduin's answer was very satisfactory, and Shemu's spirit was full of joy.
"Don't worry, I promised you, you don't need to repeat it again." Anduin replied casually, but he quickly realized it, and at the same time his eyes widened.
Together?What does it mean?Don't you mean...
"Don't! You'll get into big trouble if you leave here..."
Anduin, who had finally figured out what the other party meant, was just about to say no, but Shemu had already started his own actions.
I saw the snake tree in front of me stretching its branches crazily as if stretching its waist. At the same time, the wavy patterns on the bark and the slender leaves lit up with bright dark green light.
Soon, this ray of light gradually spread to the whole body of the tree, and then accompanied by a crisp crackling sound, the body of the snake wood began to shrink gradually at a slow speed.
Of course, it may not be appropriate to describe it as shrinking. It should be said that the other party is growing in reverse, slowly shrinking back from an adult tree!
In the process of shrinking, the snake wood began to use it as the center of the circle, emitting dark green light spots outward, these light spots were like light falling leaves, and like feathers that lost gravity, flying around.
These light spots are like ghosts, directly penetrating inanimate objects such as houses and rocks, but when they collide with living things, they will be contaminated like rainwater and gradually blend in.
All life infiltrated by the light spots, whether it is human beings, animals, trees, flowers or plants, feels light all over, and at the same time, the pain and scars on the body also begin to slowly recover and heal.
These lights are full of healing lights, and they are also a gift from Snakewood to Ifamone, who has been with him for hundreds of years!
Anduin, who was right in front of his eyes, stared at all this in a daze. He was not surprised by the generosity of Snakewood, but he discovered that the essence of these light spots was actually the same as the Philosopher's Stone, extremely pure. life energy.

In view of the extraordinary five senses, Anduin heard the flirting sounds of the warblers and swallows in the stone house clearly. At this time, he only felt dizzy for a while, and at the same time, he also felt a nausea in his stomach. It was broken by the diaphragm.
Anduin knew that he couldn't wait any longer, and he didn't know how long it would take until the young couple finished their work and left.
So he slowly swayed to the window of the stone house, and silently chanted a spell to the two people inside, and after a while the young wizards fell into a deep sleep.
"It's finally clean..." Anduin shook his head helplessly, now he finally knew why Snape was so strict with those students who went out at night, these young lovers were really annoying.
