v4 Chapter 38： Elf Ancestral Land

on Saturday.

Schelling summoned Dobby and Shining, and let Dobby take them to Apparition to the ancestral land of the elves.

According to Dobby, the ancestral land of the elves is actually a kind of space secret, similar to the existence of the world in the mirror. Only the elves can find it. The soul of all the elves will be engraved on the ancestral land from the moment they are born. So all the elves know the location of the ancestral land.

came to the legendary ancestral land of the elves, Xie Lin was deeply shocked by the scene before him.

A huge tree towering into the clouds, with the top of the tree invisible, stands in the center, surrounding the roots of the tree, and there are a few small elves villages.

The elves in the village were very excited to see the outsiders chattering. Schelling didn’t understand what they were talking about. It turned out that the elves also had their own language. Wizards have always thought that elves speak human languages.

Dobby and Shining understand, maybe it is the same as the ancestral place, this is a kind of knowledge that is inherently imprinted in their souls.

These wild elves are no different from the house elves in appearance, but if you look closely, their spirit, temperament, and even their eyes are completely different. The wild elves have nothing to do with Schelling—perhaps to all humans. They are more curious about the attitude shown by Schelling.

Xie Lin originally did not approve of enslaving other intelligent species, so he didn't have the slightest covetous heart for these wild elves.

He came here for only one purpose-Hufflepuff's inheritance.

He asked Dobby and Shining to go around to help him inquire, and it didn't take long for Dobby and Shining to come back.

"Little master, I think I have found what you want." Although Dobby has no respect and restraint in the past, it can be seen that he takes Schelling's task more seriously.

"Okay! Thank you, Dobby," Schelling said, "Can we go there now?"

"No problem, come with me."

Dobby and Shining led the way, and Xie Lin followed carefully behind them. The group of them passed through countless elf villages and marched towards the big tree in the center.

After walking for about an hour, they finally came to the bottom of the big tree. There was a deep tree hole beside the root of a certain tree. Schelling had a master-servant contract with Dobby and Shining, and was not afraid that they would harm him, so he immediately stepped into the tree hole.

The tree hole is like a maze, with dark passages extending in all directions, but Dobby and Shining seem to be able to feel some kind of guidance in the dark. They don't need to hesitate in every fork of the road, just like this all the way forward unimpeded. Finally, the group came to an altar.

Three lifelike stone sculptures are placed in front of the altar. Among them, the taller statue wears a dress made of flower petals. It has a large and a small pair of thin dragonfly-like wings on its back. There is also a lovely piece on its slightly puffed hair. The garland, no matter how you look at it, is very similar to the current mountain forest nymphs.

The other statue looks most like a human, but the pointed ears on both sides of its head are very different from humans. It was wearing a tight-fitting costume, with a pointed hat on top of its head, and the willow flute in his hand was placed by his mouth, as if it was blowing a refreshing forest song. No matter how you look at it, it is very similar to the current Leprechaun clan.

The statue at the bottom depicts a creature with drooping long ears and large eyes. If you have to say something similar to the little elves, I'm afraid there are only these three points. But unlike the little elves, the statue has neat clothes and hats, well-proportioned limbs, and handsome appearance. It holds a wine glass in one hand and a broom in the other. It seems to be singing with a grin. It looks smart and full of fun.

Dobby dragged Schelling to the statue, only to see a stone slab with ancient elves inscribed on them. The ancient elves and the wizarding scripts learned by Schelling overlap in some parts, but they are not the same, so even with With the help of Dobby and Shining, Schelling's profound knowledge of ancient magic texts is still very difficult to interpret.

First of all, the first paragraph explains the secret of the ancient times-the ancient elves created this space in order to avoid the war between the ancient dragon and the ancient giant, and moved all the people to this place. The three statues represent the mountain forest Nymph, The ancestors of dwarfs and elves.

The second paragraph of text recorded on the stone slab explains that on a certain day, some elves, dwarfs, and nymphs decided to leave to see the outside world.

The playful dwarfs fell in love with Irish clover, beer and music, so they chose to settle down in Ireland.

The nymph, who loves singing and is surrounded by bright flowers and plants, chose France and Greece.

The elves are in love with human craftsmanship. They always like to sneak into human homes and help humans with sewing, craftsmen, etc., without anyone knowing. Therefore, Muggle fairy tales such as "The Elf and the Old Shoemaker" are also spread.

(Note: Shanlin Ningfu is from the original work, translated by Renminshe as a fairy, but the author thinks it is easy to confuse the little fairy. Furong said that the Christmas party at Busbarton will have Shanlin Ningfu singing, indicating that he has spirituality and wisdom.)

(Note: Little Green Fairy, Humeizi, Little Devil, Goblin, and Little Fairy obviously have nothing to do with elves. They have no spirituality at all and cannot communicate with humans. This is why the author insists on translating the Cornwall elves into " "Little Green Fairy" reason.)

They help humans to do these "work", in fact, it is out of their love of handicraft, not for reward. So once someone gives clothes or anything to wear like an old shoemaker in a fairy tale, they will leave angrily, a bit like a lonely artist who hates the smell of copper.

This characteristic of the elves was discovered by a certain wizard one day, so he used a large number of handicrafts to lure the elves, and then used pre-designed traps to catch them all.

The captured elves were released one by one soul contract magic, and slowly they were brainwashed into human slaves, which is the house elves seen by wizards today.

Of course, this is not all of the elf. Some elves also escaped, and they fought back - some hid in the Black Forest in Germany and evolved into evil spirits, specializing in eating human children as revenge; some went to Senegal, Africa, and evolved into Yunbo, specialized Stealing human food as revenge; part of them went to the Far Eastern countries and evolved into civet cat people, specializing in pranks on humans. Although most of the pranks are harmless, there have been horror stories in Japan that the civet cat murdered the old woman and then cheated her. The husband drank the broth boiled from the corpse Note: In addition to the evil spirits, in folklore, Yunbo and the civet cat will be good to mankind as long as they are treated kindly. Some Japanese businessmen still do Put a civet cat doll as a mascot in the shop)

The text in this part has several different handwritings, obviously written by different elves. One of them is obviously the great Hawkes.

He was fortunate to be adopted by the kind-hearted Hufflepuff. Hufflepuff regarded it as a friend and gave it freedom of thought, allowing it to return to the ancestral land of the elves after Hufflepuff passed away. In order to repay Hufflepuff, Dudu left a descendant of blood in Hogwarts to assist in the daily operation of Hogwarts, and only returned to the ancestral land of the elves at a very old age.

The third paragraph recorded on the stone slab is about the inheritance left by Hufflepuff.

Hufflepuff’s best skills are healing and life magic. Before she died, she sealed her own life force in a magic circle somewhere in the forbidden forest. As long as she accepted the inheritance of this power, she would be able to obtain her. Chipach's unique skill, "creation and regeneration", is a physique that can quickly heal on its own, no matter how severe the body is injured, as long as it does not die on the spot.

Somewhere in the Forbidden Forest?

Xie Lin is a very savvy figure, and with the increase in intelligence gained from the crown of wisdom, both comprehension and memory are top notch. After his round of analysis, the so-called life force, as literally means, the most obvious feature is gestation and reproduction, and the most amazing and abnormal reproduction speed in the forbidden forest is the eighth that Hagrid stocked in the forbidden forest. The eye spider Aragok is definitely well-deserved.

No longer wasting time, Schelling immediately asked Dobby and Shining to apparate themselves to the Forbidden Forest.
