Chapter 189: Youth Potion

Chapter 189

As soon as the words fell, George waved his wand, and a huge ice wall appeared out of thin air, separating Ron and Ginny behind the ice wall.

"This mirror is really big." Harry stared blankly at George's so-called mirror, which completely replaced the stone wall just now, separating the two worlds one after the other.

"Snakes are cold-blooded animals. They don't like the cold. Low temperature will make them hibernate. A mirror made of ice can not only block the death gaze of the basilisk, but also make it avoid it unconsciously." Hermione nodded slightly. , By analogy, understand the role of the mirror.

George also looked at Hermione approvingly, "This is an excellent wizard, necessary for observation. The basilisk is actually very powerful, you have just seen it, and the peeled skin is almost indestructible. amazing."

"And the living basilisk, defense and lethality will only be more terrifying. Simply confronting it, even a powerful wizard will only be boring."

"Like a mountain monster, it is very stupid to fist against the beast. The most important thing for a wizard is that in addition to magic, it needs more brains. Magic is not used to throw away like a bomb. Magic is a means for a wizard to achieve an end. Just like scientists use science to achieve their goals."

As George spoke, he motioned Harry and the others to put on the magic glasses, and then took the lead into the cold, mysterious room.

Harry carefully put the magic glasses made of black crystal on his black-rimmed glasses. The weight of the two glasses made him a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the magic glasses seemed to have deliberately considered his condition, and the large frame just happened to be able to completely block his original glasses. There seemed to be something else added to the black crystal lens. Looking through the magic lens, there was an extra layer of shining light in the mysterious stone room, and the line of sight became brighter.

"This is dark vision, Hermione don't touch your glasses." George urged immediately. He noticed that Hermione was curious about the magic glasses and touched them with his hands from time to time.

Harry followed George and walked forward silently, the sound of footsteps echoing loudly in the empty room.

There is a long room in front of him, and the tall stone pillars are carved with giant snakes coiled and entangled. Compared with the crowded and narrow tunnels, this place looks open and vast. The ceiling can hardly be seen, and the stone pillars stretched into the height to melt into the darkness.

They walked between the stone pillars until they reached the end of the room. At the end of the room is a black wall, and on the wide wall is a statue as high as the room.

Harry raised his neck high to see the huge face of the statue, an old-fashioned, wrinkled, monkey-like face, and a sparse long beard, dragging it all the way to the hem of the wizard's robe. Two big feet stood on the smooth floor.

"He's so ugly" Hermione couldn't help whispering, compared to Dumbledore's kind and gentleman when he was old, the same tall and old wizard in front of her looked only rotten and ugly.

"Aging is really terrible. It seems that my long-term plan is to add another item called the refining of the youth potion." George said lightly, as if they were not going to face terrible monsters, but were walking in the wild. , The same as a relaxing outing.

"Youth Potion, I also want to add such a plan. I have never seen a potion that can maintain youth in the history of wizards. Did they never have this need, or is it because it is too difficult?" Hermione was a little curious. Asked.

She has seen many records and history of wizards, but this dream and legend that everyone knows in the mortal world has no traces in the history of wizards, which is a bit strange.

"There are two reasons. The wizard population is too small and self-esteem is very high. In fact, many wizards are so proud that they have no friends. It is difficult for them to have the motivation to develop such complex and relatively unpractical potions. "George casually said his guess.

The wizarding world has a very small population, and witches have always had the same powerful power, resulting in a very complete equality between men and women in the wizarding world. The wizards are all monogamous, and their social circle is actually very small, which makes them unwilling to focus more on maintaining their appearance.

It is precisely this way that there will be a greasy, uncut wizard like Snape. It is precisely because of this that Lockhart became popular among witches.

After all, compared with the old-fashioned thinking of many wizards, Lockhart is more like a popular modern man in the true sense, an open-minded, humorous modern wizard, and old-fashioned wizard. Believe in the theory of pure blood and use yourself and others as a breeding tool.

Think about it this way, you know how unpleasant they are for girls.

But there is no way In the long history, witches are absolutely inferior to ordinary people, even if they are witches, they have no more choices.

It was not until modern times that ordinary people began to catch up with the quality of life of wizards, and this could change. Only then did he have descendants of Slytherin and fell in love with the handsome and handsome Muggle rich man.

"What do we do next?" Harry asked quietly.

He didn't want to hear about youth medicine, he was too early to need these things, and he might not need them. He just wants to quickly solve the basilisk, the cold atmosphere here always makes him a little scared.

He is not as nervous as Hermione and George. He has experienced a lot of darkness and has been locked in a cabinet many times. The constant darkness always makes him scared.

"Speak in snake language to the stone statue of Slytherin, talk to me, Slytherin, the most powerful of the Big Four of Hogwarts." George said flatly, motioning that the statue in front of him was Slytherin. The statue of Lettering allowed Harry to continue speaking in snake language.

Harry began to concentrate again on imagining a giant snake in front of him. From time to time, he looked at the giant snake entwined on the two pillars, so as to convince himself that the monkey-like face in front of him was also a snake.

Fortunately, he had already laid the groundwork for the previous few times, even when facing a monkey face, he was finally able to imagine a snake.

Harry's mouth was open, and a cold, hoarse hiss came from his mouth.

"Mastering a foreign language is really important." Hermione looked at Harry with some envy. Except for George, as far as Harry could help, they could only watch. Ron and Ginny were left in the ice. After the wall.

The huge Slytherin statue began to move amid Harry's hiss, and the statue's mouth opened, opening wider and wider, and finally turned into a huge black hole.
