The black carriage quietly left Durmstrang along the secret road, galloping all the way north.
This time, the one pulling the carriage was no longer a swallow-tailed dog.
It was replaced with a magical animal with stronger legs, faster speed, and very Nordic characteristics - the big-horned reindeer.
That's right, the one that Santa rides... he can ride, bark, and fly.
William likes this kind of magical animal. After Pegasus, his "prosperous and wealthy family" finally welcomed the lovely reindeer.
It's really pleasing.
What? Sirius didn't tell William, this is Durmstrang's property?
It's like what Maxim and Missandei said... Aren't Rune Horses and Gralings still coming to William?
The carriage has a lot of space, like a small house.
In order to cope with the extreme weather in northern Europe, the floor is covered with plush wool carpets and there is a small fireplace.
Therefore, even if William and Hermione wore very thin clothes, they would not feel cold.
Even practicing running in a carriage, or sprinting... If you exercise a little bit, you will feel hot.
Tonight, William and Hermione rested in the carriage.
The two of them didn't stay in Durmstrang, and needed to find Grindelwald at night.
After all, Voldemort gave him one day.
William did not know the location of Grindelwald, but there were still clues.
Otherwise, how could he come to Northern Europe and say something like a Grindelwald disciple.
North of the North Sea, of course not a clue.
The Arctic Circle is so big and the environment is so bad, let alone a day, give you a year, and you won't be able to get to the center.
Where are the real clues?
in the book.
On the fire, Hermione snuggled into William's arms, holding a storybook in her hand.
The name of that book is written in the rune script that wizards can learn.
But most wizards have never heard of this book, but almost all Muggles have read it.
- "Andersen's Fairy Tales".
This collection of fairy tales, in the Muggle world, is equivalent to The Tales of Bedouin the Poet in the wizarding world.
Almost every child's bedtime reading.
Just like... all children from a wizarding family know the story of the three brothers.
And all Muggle children also know that Snow White and the seven Indians... ah, the love and hatred of the dwarfs.
There is also the story of the famous originator of poisonous chicken soup, the ugly duckling, which is well known to everyone.
But are these two books really just fairy tales?
At least... Dumbledore and Nico, don't think so.
They all held a Deathly Hallows in their hands.
The story of the three brothers is also the dream they have been pursuing for a lifetime.
Grindelwald apparently felt the same way.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to become a comrade with Dumbledore back then.
In fact, this "Andersen's Fairy Tales" was given by Dumbledore before it came... to find the "coordinates" of Grindelwald.
He only said one sentence:
"This is a gift from Gaynette on my eighteenth birthday."
Hermione opened the title page and read the rune note that Grindelwald left behind:
"...In order to ensure that this powerful weapon is not used by disproportionate people, the early Deathly Hallows owners will use a special way to record their stories...
Covers underlying truths with a metaphorical language of symbols, myths, and fables.
To this day, these encrypted hints are all over the place...in our myths, our bedtime stories.
Unfortunately, modern wizards have lost the ability to decipher this complex system of guidance...the great Deathly Hallows have also been lost...
Fortunately, I have gotten countless clues.
I would like to give this knowledge to Albus...my dear friend.
Infinite love.
Gellert Grindelwald. "
If you ignore the last few sentences, the whole essay...the writing is passionate, energetic, and full of confidence.
Between the lines, there is even more unparalleled ambition.
It is difficult for you to associate these words with that old old Nurmengard.
This "Andersen's Fairy Tales" has only seven stories, all of which are related to magic.
Several of these stories also involve the **** of death.
For example, in the story of The Nightingale:
Death appeared beside the emperor, ready to take him away. But the nightingale used its song to drive away the **** of death and save the emperor.
However, these are not the "coordinates" of Grindelwald, and Hermione turned the book to the last story.
——"The Snow Queen".
She held up the book and read softly.
"Once upon a time, there was the worst guy in the world, called Death..."
Well, even William couldn't help but bow down to the **** of death.
Who did they provoke?
It was sending the Deathly Hallows, and dreaming, and helping to provide clues... Just like that, I was scolded all day long.
Hermione coughed hard to get him to concentrate.
William nodded quickly, and the girl continued to read:
"Death has made a mirror that can reverse black and white.
Obviously something beautiful, when you look at it in front of a mirror, it becomes the ugliest thing. "
In the margin of the article, Dumbledore also made a footnote - Deathly Hallows.
Hermione read slowly: "Death carries a mirror and looks everywhere.
In the end, the dark wizard became a good man, an ugly woman became a beautiful woman, and a toad became a minister... The world was distorted by the **** of death. "
"Death was very proud, but he felt that this method was too slow, so he flew into the air and smashed the mirror.
That mirror, turned into countless fragments, fell in every corner of the world along with the heavy snow.
Fragments of the mirror fly into anyone's eyes, and anyone sees nothing pleasing to the eye;
Whoever gets into the heart will become ice cubes, and there will be no emotion from now on.
In a village, there is a young man and a woman.
When the two of them were looking at the album together, the bell rang outside, and the girl stuck her head out of the window.
The fragments of the mirror flying in the wind fell into her eyes and into her heart.
The kind girl immediately became cold and ruthless, and never got along with the boy again.
One night, the girl disappeared completely, and the boy decided to find her.
The snow in winter was half a foot thick, and the boy was cold and tired when he met a snake.
So he asked Snake: Do you know the whereabouts of the girl? "
This time Professor Dumbledore wrote another narration - Parseltongue.
"The snake said, "Hiss, I know where the girl is. She became the Snow Queen and flew north on a sleigh, probably on an island in the Arctic Ocean. "
"But to get to the Snow Queen's palace, you must go to Lapland first.
Ride a reindeer in a village to reach the palace. "
The boy came to Lapland, found a village, and finally stopped in front of a wooden house.
There was an old man in the house who said:
"The Snow Queen has a fragment of a mirror in her heart, and because of the fragments in her eyes, she doesn't like anything.
Only by taking out the fragments can she become a real person, otherwise she can only stay in the palace forever.
You have a heart with love, this is your strength, let the reindeer take you there! "
The old man provided the reindeer, and the boy drove towards the palace.
Snowman and Snow Treasure kept rushing towards him.
They are all soldiers of the Snow Queen, who are guarding the palace!
The boy worked hard to subdue Xuebao and Snowman, and finally entered the palace of the Snow Queen.
Everything is made of ice and snow, shining like clear glass.
There is a frozen lake in the hall, which is the lake of reason of the world.
The girl sits in the middle and observes everything that happens in the world, ignoring the boy.
Death with a hood suddenly appeared, and he said to the boy:
"If a girl can spell the word 'eternity' she is her own master, and she will be free from now on."
After death left, the boy asked the girl to spell "eternal".
But the girl still stared at the lake in a daze.
The boy tried all the methods, but the girl was unmoved.
Finally, the boy cried sadly.
His tears, like an endless hot spring, flowed into the girl's heart, melting all the mirror fragments in her heart.
At this moment, the girl's eyes suddenly moved and she began to look at the boy.
The boy sang the girl's favorite song in the past:
"When the Northern Lights appeared, we saw the **** of death."
When the girl heard the song, she suddenly burst into tears, and the hot tears melted the shards in her eyes.
They hugged tightly, and even the surrounding Xuebao danced happily for them.
When they lay down tiredly, the two just formed an "eternal" pattern.
