Early the next morning, Solim and Elrond were ready to leave for Little Hangleton with a bunch of things sent by Gilves.

Deli also deliberately got up early in the morning to interrupt Elrond as he was about to use the portkey, so that they could either continue to wait for the portkey's cooldown in the manor or walk out of the manor and use the illusion. He thought about it all, but what he didn't expect was that Elrond and Solim didn't use the portkey at all, and left the manor directly.

"Aren't they going straight back to Selwyn Castle?" Deley wondered from a hidden corner, "so the plans are all disrupted, so let's inform the Rich family first." It seems that they will not be able to catch them this time. "

Although Deli wants to get rid of Elrond and Solim, he will not let people ambush outside the manor, because he will definitely not hide from Gilves.

Elrond's expected trouble did not arise, and no one tried to find out the secrets of the potion. When he came to Little Hangleston, Solim spoke out his doubts.

"Fool, that's just in case, it's best not to," Elrond said impatiently, "and I'm sure you didn't notice Gilves's nephew's little move." "

Solim looked confused, indeed, he knew that the two of them had bad intentions, and he could guess that they wanted to stop Flegg from becoming a wizard - because once Flegg became a wizard, the head of the Orvis family had nothing to do with Deli. Even for the sake of this, some "accidents" may be created, these Solim can figure it out. But what does that kid named Flegg have to do with himself? This is something that Gilves should be worried about.

"Usually it looks quite smart, but when it comes to the critical moment, how can you be stupid?" Elrond was very dissatisfied. "Just now when we left, that kid was staring at us, probably reporting to the Richie family, preparing to ambush us, of course, mainly you. "

Solim killed someone's heir, and it's no wonder that they don't retaliate. Usually hiding in Hogwarts, they really don't have much chance on Dumbledore's territory, but this time Solim is neither at Hogwarts nor hiding in Selwyn Castle, such a good opportunity, of course, they will not let go.

Hearing this, Solim was still a little nervous. After all, no matter how talented he is, he can't deal with adult wizards at the age of eleven, and given that Elrond and he definitely can't hide it from others, they will definitely take Elrond's factor into account, so that as long as they are caught, the two of them will basically be finished.

"What then?" Solim was a little anxious, not to mention that he had killed people through black-glove duels, and he had also experienced sneak attacks and ambushes by others in Sculle. But how can those little kids' tricks compare to the battles between adult wizards. Don't look at Solim is quite talented, and he knows a lot of spells. But if you really want to fight an adult wizard, it would be nice if he could file four or five rounds, and this is still talking about ordinary adult wizards, is the Richie family an ordinary family? No, then the wizards they sent may be worse than ordinary wizards?

"Look at your cowardice! Don't worry, they won't catch us. Elrond didn't care. I don't know if it's heartless or confident.

Unlike the renovated main road, the dirt road is still winding, potholed and rocky, and the hedges on both sides have become taller and denser. They grow irregularly, filling everything around them, even obscuring the original path, nearly a hundred years have passed, but there is still not much change here, time seems to stand still in this place. After crossing the bushy trees, Solim saw the old home of the Gaunt family.

The Gaunt house was easy to find—the most dilapidated one. It's not just broken, it's about to collapse.

Now, it would be more appropriate to call the house ruins. The moss-covered walls still existed, stubbornly supporting the main body of the old house, covered with plants, the roof tiles were all gone, the exposed rafters began to rot, and the doors and windows disappeared, leaving black holes. The sound of bugs crawling through the house was sounding from inside the house, and the dense nettles had taken over the place.

"It's good here, stay away from Muggles, and the expulsion spell is saved. Elrond looked around. It was found that there was no trace of magic around.

Solim honestly followed Elrond into the Gaunt's old mansion. Solim noticed that there were a lot of dagger holes in the door frame, presumably made by Morfin when he was a child.

Morfingunt - Like the other Gaunts, he inherited the special gift of Parseltongue from his Slytherin bloodline. He liked to play with snakes, but he did not cherish them, and often got tired of playing with them, and then nailed them to the door frame with a dagger to intimidate others.

Elrond in Gaunt's old mansion showed a side that Solim had never seen before: the wand he held in his right hand was glowing brightly, illuminating the dimly lit room. At the same time, Solim saw his expression - extremely serious.

"Over there," Elrond motioned to Solim, "the only thing in the room is there any trace of magic. "

Solim didn't feel anything anyway. All he could smell was damp wood, the smell of mold, and the smell of something rotting.

It was a dilapidated wooden cabinet that had been covered in a thick layer of dirt that made it difficult to see its original color. Elrond pointed his wand at one of the drawers, and it slowly slid out with a screeching sound, after all, it hadn't been opened in nearly half a century.

There

was a ring lying quietly in the drawer, and when they saw it, Solim and Elrond knew that they had found the right owner.

The Gunter family's resurrection stone ring is very famous. In Marvolo's time, and even earlier, the ring was the only source of income for the Gaunt family.

The Resurrection Stone can summon the consciousness or soul of a deceased person, as long as you know how to use it correctly. Sometimes, when some wizards need to summon a dead man, they come to the Gaunt family to rent it. This is also the reason why Mavolo's family is so poor and has not starved to death.

Elrond was now looking intently at the ring, and then, he raised his wand and pointed at it, chanting some incantations that Solim didn't understand, and then Solim saw a large black mist floating from the ring, forming the shape of a human face, and opened his mouth to let out a silent roar.

Elrond was satisfied, and he took out a box, conjured a stick with Transfiguration, and picked the ring in.

"That's it!Let's go back, I can't wait!" Elrond said excitedly.

"It's that simple?" Solim couldn't believe it. This is considered a get?

"Of course not! There is a curse of instant death attached to it, which is aimed at both the body and the soul, and I dare say that if a great wizard takes it, he will not survive in a few days, if not on the spot. But it's easy to lift the curse. "

"Someone to bring it?".

Elrond glanced at Solim, "yes, find someone to bring it, this curse will be useless, disposable." Riddle's enchantment level is still a bit high, but that's it. "

With that, Elrond raised his wand and waved it heavily. Solim felt the room shake a little.

"Alright, I've cleared our traces, let's hurry back. With that, Elrond shook his sleeve and shook out a gray key, which was tied to a chain and the other end was tied to Elrond's wrist.

"Hold on to me!".

Solim and Elrond were not attacked or ambushed, and they returned safely to Selwyn Castle through the portkey. As soon as he returned, Elrond didn't say a word to Solim, and hurried to the basement with the box, his legs and feet sharper than that of the young man.

When Solim arrived outside Elrond's door, he saw his sister Sylna poking her head out of the door of her room.

"What's wrong with Grandpa?" asked Sylna, puzzled, "I just yelled and ran in." "

"Uh......" Of course, Solim won't tell his sister about the resurrection stone, "I'm crazy~ I'll go in and take a look, you don't come in, it's like a kennel inside." "

Elrond didn't even notice Solim coming in. He was muttering something about the resurrection stone with his wand pointing at it, and from time to time he was writing something on the parchment beside him. Solim sat down quietly, he wasn't going to bother Elrond as he was in a state of study. Solim came over mainly because he was afraid that Elrond would take it with him under the temptation of the ring, and Solim didn't know why Elrond didn't remove the curse on it first before researching it. However, Solim would not be stupid enough to disturb Elrond, who was on the rise, and he just had to watch here, and if his grandfather had such a tendency to wear a ring, he could interrupt him.

I don't know how long I sat there, but it wasn't until Sylna came in with a plate that Solim knew it was time to eat. In this way, the brother and sister ate quietly while watching their grandfather muttering in front of the workbench. It wasn't until a long time after eating that Elrond came to his senses with the protest of his stomach.

"Have you all eaten?" Elrond, realizing that his two grandchildren had already eaten, said dissatisfiedly, "Why don't you call me?"

Solim and Sylna looked at each other, and Sylna said: This kind of scolded work should be done by my brother.

"You were so engrossed, we didn't call you. Solim knew that he had to change the subject quickly, or he would be scolded, "How's it going?

Sure enough, as soon as he said this, Elrond didn't pay attention to the matter of eating, and talked about his discovery in a danced manner, and even forgot to let Sylna avoid it.

However, Solim didn't remind him, Solim thought that Sylna, as his sister, would have to know these things sooner or later, and Sylna was not a talkative child, so it didn't matter if she knew.
