The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

v2 Chapter 172: this is 1 loop

People's pursuit of gold is instinctive and subconscious, just like the pursuit of water, air, oil, salty and sweet.

In the face of such a huge amount of wealth, it is difficult for anyone to control their desires, such as Sarah, who threw herself directly into the gold mountain, scooped up handfuls of gold and threw them into the sky while tossing in it, and then Pour out everything in the backpack and stuff all kinds of rare treasures into it.

Soon, her backpack was full, but more precious and rare treasures were still emerging one after another. Sarah took out the more ordinary jewelry from the bag, and then put in the new jewelry she liked. Like a child looking for the biggest ears of wheat in the field, she picks and chooses all kinds of jewels. Whenever she thinks it is over, something more precious will appear before her eyes. A black gem the size of a pigeon egg was replaced, and when I wanted to leave, I found an egg-sized...

This kind of thing happens again and again.

Tom didn't dare to act rashly like her, and jumped in and went crazy. He grabbed Hermione and kept her from joining the orgy. He was afraid that there would be some strange poison on these gold and silver jewels. Of course, after five thousand years of volatilization, most of the biological poisons are probably decomposed to nothing, but the curse on the mysterious side is hard to say.

Dr. Hunter and the old man Ushato also remained calm, standing there silently watching Sarah buy for zero yuan. It took a while before Sarah came back to her senses, feeling that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

"You... You can also take... You're welcome." She said in a friendly voice.

"During the journey, more than half of the people in the team died. Are you still so careless? Don't you guys have any brains?" Tom was speechless to this dead guy, "I'm not afraid that gold is poisonous or cursed. ?"

Only then did Sara realize the problem, and hurriedly climbed up from the golden mountain, knocking over a lot of golden objects and falling everywhere. After coming down from the golden mountain, she accidentally rolled one of them to her feet. The hollow gold cup was crushed. Looking at the gold cup that was scrapped directly, and then at the black gemstone ejected from the gold cup, Dr. Hunter only felt his blood pressure rising.

Sarah also realized that she had done something wrong, and hurriedly stood aside with her head down. Tom looked at her and sighed.

At least she proved with her actions that gold is non-toxic, and there is no instant death curse.

"Doctor, let's find the way out first, and it won't be too late to come back to get the treasure after we find it." Tom said to Dr. Hunter, he didn't use the tone of discussion, but an order.

Perhaps Dr. Hunter's purpose of their trip has been achieved, but Tom's has not. Apart from checking in a few places along the way, he didn't have any satisfactory results. So he has to explore further here. Of course, if a way out is found, it would be great to send Dr. Hunter and the others out. The rest was beyond what the three Muggles could handle—in fact, Tom already regretted bringing this group of people into the city.

But at that time, the expedition already had too many sunk costs, and it was impossible to stop at the ruins outside. Alyosha lost his comrades in the ruins, Dr. Hunter lost his students, and Tom couldn't stop them.

Tom's strength had an effect. Dr. Hunter promised to find the exit first. They first took a look at the most suspicious pool in the house, but they found nothing unusual, only a pool of clear water and a few small golden fishes inside.

The surrounding golden mountains shone like the sun under the light.

Behind the pond is a path that is exactly the same as when entering the house, and a dark golden gate with the same shape and entrance. They walked out along this path. The moment they stepped out of the gate, everyone turned their heads subconsciously, and reluctantly glanced at the treasure room full of gold, silver and jewels.

"Let's go, it's important to do business." Tom urged them, and by the way, told the three Muggles what he just figured out.

"The next thing is not what you who have never been exposed to magic should face." He seriously advised them to leave here, and at the same time made up his mind to let them remember the "true" of this adventure when they left. Condition.

"Okay." Dr. Hunter gritted his teeth and agreed.

Several people walked in the dark passage like this, except for Tom and Dr. Hunter who said a few words of their own thoughts at first, no one spoke again. There were only five footsteps and Sarah's heavy breathing along the way. Her backpack contained dozens of kilograms of treasure, which was extremely heavy.

We walked for a while, and there was something vaguely ahead. Holding up his wand, Tom took a closer look, and saw a piece of sand, the sand inside was as fine and beautiful as the sand he had encountered before. After Dr. Hunter and the others approached, the cold smoke in their hands illuminated the entire sandy field, and Tom couldn't help but be taken aback: there was already a bunch of messy footprints on this sandy field.

Tom was stunned, and a strange idea came to his mind.

Others saw it too. "Why are there footprints here?" Sara asked, looking shocked: how could anyone else come in this kind of place? ! It's all **** luck that they can enter here, and ordinary people can't even solve the outermost puzzle!

Tom shook his head, "Don't think so much, just keep going, and you'll know why in a while."

He took a deep look at the string of footprints in the sand, and he was sure that they were left by them - because there were the shading of Hermione's boots inside.

Due to this series of strange footprints, the nerves of several people were tense~lightnovelpub.net~ The atmosphere along the way was even more embarrassing. Soon, another dark golden door appeared at the end of the passage. At the moment when he saw the gate, Tom felt as if someone had pinched his heart: this gate was exactly the same as the one they had entered before! Even the black cat at the door is the same style.

"It's interesting." Tom smiled, "Go in and have a look."

He stood in front of the gate and said to the four people who were already in a shutdown state.

Then the door opened and the light from within came out.

The few people breathed a sigh of relief at first—the room just now was pitch black without any light, but this room is very bright, and then there was a cardiac arrest. They remembered that they hadn't turned off the lights before leaving!

After the door opened, they entered one after another. The room behind the door was exactly the same as the treasure room just now: pillars, ponds, coral lamps emitting light, paths, golden mountains...

When Dr. Hunter picked up a crushed gold cup from the ground, everyone finally confirmed that they had returned to the previous room.
