Chapter 79: Slytherin's wand (thanks to Snz's
According to Nicolamee, his first half of his life was ordinary, even a bit boring and boring.
One night, lightning and thunder were roaring, heavy rain was pouring, the sky and the earth were dark, black dragons were seen in the West, and the phoenix fell into a dream... Well, these strange phenomena had nothing to do with Nico.
He was just in a daze and had a dream:
A wizard with a hood came to his dream and told him that there was a legendary magic book in the cave on the northwest shore of the Alaba Sea.
He only needs to take away the magic book, study hard and understand thoroughly, and gain extraordinary knowledge, marry pure and rich beauty, and then reach the peak of his life.
"When I woke up the next day, I began to think about this dream."
Nico's tone was cheerful, as if he was recalling the scene that day.
"At that time, before I finished my breakfast, I decided to sell all my belongings and set off to find the book at noon. The whole thinking process did not exceed five minutes."
William was speechless. Who hadn't dreamed of something strange in his dream?
When most people wake up, they will only recall it. Few people will take their dreams seriously, right?
If it were really implemented according to what was in the dream, William would have been imprisoned for life in Azkaban.
Looking at William's expression, Nico laughed and said, "Yes, it's ridiculous, right? If it were me now, I wouldn't believe in this kind of dream, or hesitate. It is impossible for me to leave everything behind and follow the guidance of the dream to pursue it.
But at that time, I was still very young and impulsive, and I didn't think about the consequences in everything.
The most important thing is that I don’t have many outstanding talents in magic, but one of my ancestors was a diviner, and I also inherited this talent and could make short-term predictions about the future.
I thought at that time... it was my ancestors who were sending me a dream."
Nico paced around the chair, a smile appeared on his face, and he slowly said, "I sold the bookstore, borrowed a lot of money, bought a batch of supplies and maps, and set out toward the Alaba Sea alone."
"Alaba Sea?" William wondered.
"We were called the Alaba Sea at that time, which is the Dead Sea today." Nico pondered for a moment: "I searched the northwest coast of the Dead Sea for a whole year according to my memories in my dreams.
Finally, I found the remains in a cave, where there were a large number of manuscripts, and I found the alchemy books in a pile of parchment scrolls.”
William opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief: "You said it was the Dead Sea Scrolls?"
Half a century ago, shepherds found large numbers of scrolls in caves near the ancient settlement of Koumran.
Archaeologists and treasure hunters have landed in Mulan, and found about 40 caves in the Koumlan Valley. Among them, there are scriptures in 11 caves. More than 600 ancient scriptures were found, including dozens of them, and dozens of them were relatively complete, and there were tens of thousands of fragments of fragments.
These ancient scrolls were found in the Dead Sea, so they are collectively called "Dead Sea Scrolls" by the academic community. They are a group of cultural relics with difficult value.
"Yes," Nico nodded, "I noticed the name of Muggles to those parchment scrolls, called the Dead Sea Scrolls.
But I prefer to call it the Book of Abraham.”
"Why didn't you take everything away?" William asked.
"I just said that I believe in that mysterious thing.
The man only asked me to take away the magic book in his dream, so I thought that other things were tests, so I did not have the slightest greed and left all the remaining items.
Of course, those parchment scrolls record the story of Muggles, which is useless to me."
William nodded slightly, and this was true.
The wizards in the magic world are not religious, and the handwritten Bible is no different from white paper for Nico.
Lemay said slowly, “After leaving the Dead Sea, I returned to Paris and began to study the Book of Abraham.
That book is a huge ancient book, not like other books, using paper or sheepskin, but made of delicate and smooth bark.”
“Elderly bark?”
"That's right, exactly the same as in the story of Death!"
Lemay looked at William who held his breath and listened carefully, and said softly, "The words in the book are not written in English, Latin, French or other words that Muggles can recognize, but are written in ancient magical texts.
It took me another twenty-one more years to learn ancient magical texts."
“That magic book is very thick, it is divided into three groups in seven pages.
It contains the home page, and the seventh page of each group does not have any text.
On the seventh page of the first group, there is a magic wand swallowed by a giant python, and on the seventh page of the second group, there is a goblet."
"The magic wand swallowed by the giant python, goblet..." William raised his eyebrows, "Isn't this the gift the second and third brothers want?"
"Yes." Nico listened to the music in his ears, and after a moment, he showed sarcasm on his face.
"So the boss was still fooled by the god of death.
What he wanted was an alchemy book containing everything, but without that wand and goblet, the second and third groups could not be seen."
"Then have you found those two things?"
Nico showed a regretful expression, "No, I have been pursuing it for six hundred years but I have found nothing, but there are some clues."
Nico snapped his fingers and a thick golden book floated over the huge bookshelf.
The book reads: "The Secret of the Pure Blood Family".
The book flipped quickly and quickly turned to the location where the letter was S. The first page was Salazar Slytherin.
"According to the records of this book, Salazar Slytherin's wand is a snakewood wand, and the core is a snake monster horn, which is the same as the second wand in the story.
And he himself is a snake-like guy."
"But there was no giant python swallowing it." William said, looking at the book.
"It's true, but on Slytherin's wand, there is a giant python outlining.
Dumbledore also helped me get confirmation from those principal portraits," Nico explained.
"But Slytherin's logo is also a snake, maybe it's a coincidence."
"Yes, child." Nico said seriously: "But you have to remember that no Deathly Hallows has left a clear record in history.
We can only guess to find clues in the vast river of history.”
William nodded and said, "Where is Slytherin's wand? I remember recording in school history that he left the school."
“Yes, Slytherin did leave Hogwarts.
But before that, he passed the wand to his children. By the early 17th century, it had become a family heirloom of the Gunter family."
After Nico finished speaking, the book quickly flipped and soon arrived at the Gunter family.
"But unfortunately, Aesop Thor stole the wand from her aunt Gorry Gunter and took the Mayflower to the New Americas."
"Aesop Thor?" William thought, "this name sounds familiar."
“Aesop and her husband co-founded the Ifamoni Magic School, which is also the best magic school in the United States.
But after her death, the clues were completely cut off, and the wand disappeared into the long river of history.”
Niko sighed.

(Thanks to the 10,000 yuan reward from the Protector "Snz", I owe one update.
Let’s explain it, the recent plot has deviated from the main line.
But I had to write it, after all, it belongs to the part of the outline that expands the worldview, and then reveals it with the God of Death as the core.
The nine death hallows that appear at present, except for the protagonist's bronze ring and Nico's magic book, all of them are magic items that appear in the original work or are indirectly described.
So they will be on the stage one after another.
This plot will end soon and return to the main line again, thank you.
Chapter completed!
