Magic Journey from Hogwarts

'Gandalf' silently activated the detection magic and sensed the situation within ten kilometers with the Lovegood family as the center.

After a moment, he frowned because he did not find Luna, which meant that there was no such thing as Luna fishing by the creek as Xenophilius said.

Xenophilius deceived them, but why?

"It's best for you three to get together and make sure you have access to each other at all times."

"Why?" Ron asked confused.

"It's convenient for Apparition." 'Gandalf' said bluntly, "I hope I'm overthinking it."

"Sir, what do you mean?" Hermione swallowed hard, "Lovegood, will he betray us?"

"Not sure, but just in case, it's always good to be careful."

The three of them exchanged glances with each other and sat together nervously.

'Gandalf' observed the entire room carefully. After pondering for a while, he walked to the printing press and lifted the tablecloth on it.

The latest issue of "The Quibbler" appeared in front of him. On the cover was a picture of Harry Potter, with the title 'Number One Undesirable' and a bounty of 10000 Galleons attached below.

"Tsk!" 'Gandalf' smacked his lips, "This is really catching people off guard!"

At this time, footsteps came from outside the house. 'Gandalf' immediately covered the tablecloth, picked up his staff and sat on a chair as if nothing had happened.

"Sir?" Harry opened his mouth hesitantly.

'Gandalf' stretched out his hand to interrupt, signaling them not to act rashly yet.

Xenophilius walked in and placed a tray in front of several people. On it were five teacups and a steaming teapot.

"Gordigan tea, we made it ourselves." Xenophilius picked up the teapot and poured out five cups of dark purple liquid. "Try it, I believe you will like it."

Hearing this, Harry and the other three were at a loss as to what to do.

They all received a hint from 'Gandalf'. There must be something wrong with Mr. Lovegood. What if there was poison in the tea?

This worry is definitely not unnecessary. Bathilda Bagshot in Godric's Hollow was possessed by Nagini and almost killed them. Who knows what means Lovegood will use, and this tea looks quite good. Not serious.

'Gandalf' didn't take it seriously and picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

"Tsk! This smell..."

"what about the taste?"

"It's very special." 'Gandalf' gave Harry and the other three a reassuring look, and then the three of them picked up the tea cups and drank, and then their expressions twitched slightly.

The taste is not special, but weird, like the juice squeezed from all-flavor beans.

A flash of shame flashed in Xenophilius's eyes, and then he sat down and said while drinking tea: "Luna should be back soon, she caught enough fish to make a pot of fish soup for everyone.

So, how can I help you, Mr. Potter? "

Harry was stunned for a moment and glanced at 'Gandalf' unconsciously.

"Look what I'm doing? If you want to ask anything, just ask. Don't forget we're in a hurry."

Harry understood instantly, opened Dumbledore's "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" and pointed to a triangular pattern on it, "We are here to ask you about this sign."

"Are you talking about this?" Xenophilius pointed to the jewelry composed of triangles, circles, and thin lines worn on his chest.

"Yes, that's it.

We want to know what exactly is it? "

"You really want to know? This is the symbol of the Deathly Hallows."

"what?"

"It's normal that you don't know." Xenophilius said, "Few wizards believe this. It was once considered the sign of a famous dark wizard. It's really ignorant.

People simply use this symbol to show themselves to other believers in the hope of receiving help in their quest. "

"Can you elaborate?" 'Gandalf' asked.

"I think you have all heard the legend of the three brothers!"

"I heard it." Hermione and Ron said in unison.

Harry shook his head, "I haven't heard of it."

"You haven't heard of it?" Xenophilius looked at Harry with some confusion, "This story is in "The Tales of Beedle the Bard"!"

"Uh...sir, that book belongs to Hermione and I only know one sign."

"I see." Xenophilius nodded, "Miss Granger, can you tell us a story?"

"Okay." Hermione opened "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" to the part about the three brothers. "Once upon a time, there were three brothers, walking on a remote path, and dusk fell."

"It's midnight," interrupted Ron, "that's what my mum always said."

"That only means your mother remembered it wrong." 'Gandalf' snorted, "Is Mrs. Weasley's story more accurate than the one in the book?"

"Don't worry about these insignificant details, sir." Xenophilius glanced out the window without any trace, and only looked away when he saw a black crow flying away, "Hermione, continue talking!"

"As dusk fell, they came to a river, but the water was too strong for them to cross.

But the three brothers had all learned magic. They waved their magic wands and a bridge was built.

But just as they were about to cross the bridge, a man in a cloak blocked them.

It was the Grim Reaper, and he felt teased, because usually passers-by would drown in this river.

However, Death was very cunning. He pretended to praise the magic of the three people, saying that they escaped death by virtue of their cleverness, and everyone should be rewarded. "

"The boss wanted the most powerful wand in the world, so Death made him one out of the elder trees around him."

"The second child wanted to further tease Death. He said he wanted his sweetheart's ability to bring the dead back to life, so Death picked up a stone from the river and gave it to him."

“Finally, death turned to Lao San.

He was a humble man and he said he wanted something that would help him get out of that place without being followed by death.

So Death reluctantly gave him his invisibility cloak. "

"The God of Death has an invisibility cloak?" Harry asked in astonishment. A ridiculous idea suddenly appeared in his mind. Couldn't the invisibility cloak in his hand be the one given to the third child by the God of Death?

"Then the three brothers separated and headed towards their respective destinations." Hermione continued, "The eldest brother came to a remote mountain village, where he used the elder wand given to him by Death to kill a man who had been with him. Arguing wizards.”

“He was so delighted by the wand’s immense power that he boasted of his ability to everyone he met.

But that night, another wizard stole his wand and slit his throat.

In this way, the God of Death took the life of the boss. "

"The most powerful wand." Harry said in a daze.

He wondered if the wand Voldemort was looking for was the elder wand given to the boss by Death. Whoever got it would have invincible power.

"The second child returned to the home where he lived alone. He took out the stone and turned it three times in his hand.

To his surprise, the girl he married early but unfortunately died young appeared in front of him.

But soon, she became sad and cold, because she did not belong to this world.

Hopeless love drove Er Er crazy, and he committed suicide in order to be with his sweetheart.

In this way, the God of Death took away the second child's life. "

“As for the third child, Death has been looking for him for many years but has never found him.

The third child lived until he was very old, then took off the invisibility cloak and gave it to his son.

Then he greeted Death like an old friend, followed him happily, and they left this world together. "

"This story tells us a lot of thought-provoking philosophy of life." 'Gandalf' smiled and took a puff of cigarette, "If you want to make it die, first make it crazy.

The boss suffers from his arrogant character. After all, the wand is a foreign object, and magic is the foundation of the wizard.

Before you have absolute strength, showing off this wand will only attract others to covet you, and it is just a way to die.

The second child suffered from arrogance. The God of Death needs to abide by the rules and cannot attack the living, but he is a god after all.

How dare he think of fooling the gods as a mortal!

The third child was somewhat self-aware, and his humility allowed him to live to the end of his life and earn an invisibility cloak for future generations. "

"I still don't understand." Harry pondered, "What does this story have to do with the Deathly Hallows?"

"Wand, invisibility cloak, resurrection stone.

Right, Mr. Lovegood? "

"Yes, that's it." Xenophilius nodded, picked up a quill from the table full of things, and took out a piece of parchment from the pile of books.

"Elder wand, the most powerful wand in the world." Xenophilius drew a vertical line on the parchment.

"Resurrection Stone." Xenophilius drew a circle under the vertical line, and finally a triangle that surrounded the vertical line and circle, "Invisibility Cloak."

"These three things together are the Deathly Hallows, and together they will make you the master of Death."

"Absurd." 'Gandalf' dismissed it, "The Deathly Hallows may really exist, but the 'Master of Death' is absolutely nonsense."

"Sir." Xenophilius reminded with some embarrassment, "The master I am talking about is not a master in the true sense, but a conqueror or a winner.

A summary that has been passed down along with this ancient legend is that by collecting three Deathly Hallows, you can gain powerful power, enough to conquer death. "

"But do they really exist?" Hermione asked doubtfully.

"exist."

"Sir." Hermione said helplessly, "That is just a legend after all. We all know that the invisibility cloak is rare, but it does exist, but..."

"Miss Granger, the third sacred artifact is the real invisibility cloak." Xenophilius said seriously, "It is not an invisibility cloak made of the disillusionment spell or the hair of an invisible beast.

These things can be invisible at first, but will gradually reveal their physical form over time. The holy artifact is a cloak that can make people completely invisible, which is permanent.

Have you ever seen such a treasure? "

Hermione choked and turned to look at Harry and Ron.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Harry's invisibility cloak seemed to be such a treasure, and its effect had not diminished at all after being used for several years, and it seemed to be passed down from his family.

"Okay, let's just assume that the invisibility cloak exists, but what about the resurrection stone?

How could the Resurrection Stone be real? "

"Then prove it isn't!"

Hermione's eyes twitched and she said angrily: "I don't have a resurrection stone. How can I prove that it can resurrect the dead?"

"Hermione." 'Gandalf' said softly, "There are many magical treasures in the magic world. As far as I know, Gaius has a potion that can resurrect the dead who have been dead for no more than an hour."

"As for the last elder wand, I think that's what the mysterious man is looking for."

"The mysterious man is looking for the Elder Wand?" Xenophilius was stunned for a moment, and then a strong light flashed in his eyes, "Do you know where the Elder Wand is?"

"I don't know," Harry said before anyone else could speak.

"But how is this possible?" Hermione still didn't want to believe that the legendary things could actually exist, and three of them appeared at once.

"I have never seen the Invisibility Cloak or the Resurrection Stone, but there is countless evidence of the Elder Wand." Xenophilius said, "It is the easiest sacred artifact to trace because its inheritance method is quite special."

"What do you mean?" 'Gandalf' asked curiously.

He was sure that Dumbledore asked Grindelwald to guide Voldemort to find the Elder Wand before he was alive, but it was unclear why he wanted to send a Deathly Hallows to Voldemort. Perhaps Xenophilius could give him an explanation. .

"You can only become its owner by seizing this wand from its previous owner." Xenophilius said.

"Defeat the previous master?" 'Gandalf' thought thoughtfully, and his brain began to work at high speed.

It was Gellert Grindelwald who stole the wand, and it was Albus Dumbledore who defeated Gellert Grindelwald, which means that Albus Dumbledore is the previous owner of the Elder Wand. .

But Dumbledore is already dead, and it was Severus Snape who killed Dumbledore, which means...Snape will be the current owner of the Elder Wand.

Wait, I seem to have forgotten some details.

It seems that Dumbledore's wand was knocked off before his death, and the person who knocked off the wand was...

"No way!" 'Gandalf' slapped his head, "This is really so ridiculous!"

"Sir, are you all right?"

"It's okay, Mr. Lovegood, please continue."

"The Elder Wand's bloody trail has splattered throughout the history of magic.

The evil Egbert slaughtered the evil Merik, Hereward killed his father Godlot, and Heloas killed Barnabas all in order to steal the Elder Wand.

However, the clues are vague with Arkus and Livias. No one knows which of them defeated Hiloas and took away the Elder Wand. "

Hermione pursed her lips and rarely retorted.

She also knew these stories, having read them in a book.

After a moment of silence, Hermione asked: "Sir, do you know Ignotus Peverell?"

"The one you saw in the cemetery?" 'Gandalf' asked with a smile.

"The tombstone has the symbol of the Deathly Hallows. I think the Peverell family may be related to the Deathly Hallows."

"Peverell?" Xenophilius was stunned for a moment, "I thought you didn't know!"

"We really don't know." Ron said speechlessly.

“The three brothers in the story are actually the three Peverell brothers, Antiochus, Cadmus, and Ignotus.

The three brothers were the original owners of the sacred artifact. "
