Chapter 4164 4166【Get the diary】
? Xiang Nan overheard the conversation between Malfoy and his son, and couldn''t help but admire that the old pure-blood family really didn''t get it for free.
?They have a very keen sense of smell and can keenly detect changes in power and make decisions that are beneficial to their own interests.
This is a very rare ability, and it also ensures that the Malfoy family will survive for thousands of years.
?Just like in the original book, at the end, the Malfoy family was destined to die with Voldemort.
After all, their family''s identity as Death Eaters has been exposed.
Not to mention Lucius Malfoy, a veteran Death Eater who escaped from Azkaban Prison after being imprisoned and continued to follow Voldemort.
Draco Malfoy is no less impressive. Not only is he a Death Eater, he is also suspected of murdering Dumbledore, almost killing Katie Bell and Ron Weasley, and using the Imperius Curse to control the proprietress of the Three Broomsticks pub. Rosmer Tower.
?These things are enough for them to have a good drink. But they took the extreme turn, jumped ship in time at the last moment, and finally passed the Ministry of Magic''s liquidation safely.
This shows how accurately they grasp the current situation.
?Compared with them, the Lestrange family was too stupid. The entire family was destroyed and was buried with Voldemort.
…
Xiang Nan then sneaked into the secret room under the living room.
Sure enough, there were many dangerous and evil items in the secret room.
??Such as the magic mirror lingering with black energy, the skeleton exuding evil aura, the puppets whispering, etc. Many of them are props infused with black magic and are very deadly.
Xiang Nan searched carefully and soon found an inconspicuous diary in a box.
??The cover of this diary is black, looks wrinkled, tattered, and unremarkable at all.
When I opened it, there was no writing on it. Only on the first page was a name written in smeared ink: Tom Riddle.
Xiang Nan knew that this was one of Voldemort''s Horcruxes, his diary from that year.
The reason why he used this diary as his first Horcrux was because he had no other precious items at the time.
When he was in the fifth grade, he found the secret room left by Slytherin, summoned the sleeping basilisk, and killed Myrtle.
Because it was a malicious murder, his soul was split. He also used this opportunity to make his first Horcrux.
?At that time, he was just a poor student with no wealth, and this diary recorded his process of tracing his life experience, and he considered it an important testimony of his journey to find his roots.
?Hence, although the diary is ordinary, it is of extraordinary significance to Voldemort.
Xiang Nan immediately picked up the diary and used "Copy to Double" to make a copy and put it back in the box.
??Anyway, Lucius Malfoy had no idea that this diary was Voldemort''s Horcrux. He only thought that this was an evil magic prop made by Voldemort. But he didn''t know exactly how evil it was.
So in the original "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", he easily lost it to the Weasley family. If it hurts someone, he takes advantage. No one is harmed, and he doesn''t suffer any loss.
??Anyway, the Dark Lord was already dead at that time, and the Ministry of Magic was closely investigating, so he was unwilling to continue to keep Voldemort''s things at home.
?So even if Xiang Nan replaced this diary, Lucius Malfoy would not be aware of it at all.
After getting the diary, Xiang Nan left Malfoy Manor, and then apparated again to the cliff next to Saltair Village, then jumped into the sea, passed through the crack, and came to the cave again.
??This time when he came to the cave again, Xiang Nan''s feeling was obviously different, because this time he noticed the fluctuation of magic power in the cave.
This shows that Voldemort has come and arranged it as a hiding place for Horcruxes.
Xiang Nan immediately searched the cave and soon found an entrance covered by magic on the cave wall.
He pointed his wand at the rock. Suddenly, the outline of an arch appeared there, emitting a dazzling white light, as if there was a strong light shining behind the crack.
Xiang Nan studied it carefully and immediately saw the doorway to the entrance.
Yes, there is indeed a hidden door here. To open this door, you must cover the entire door with your own blood.
If the whole door is painted, it is no exaggeration to say that the person will become very weak. After all, wizards do not have any physical advantage over ordinary people.
Xiang Nan is not afraid of being painted with blood. With his vitality, he will not become weak even if he paints the whole door. However, he cannot commit the crime of painting the door.
He immediately used the Earth Escape Technique to enter the cave wall, and then moved forward, quickly passing through the cave wall and arriving at the shore of a large black lake.
The lake is extremely wide and stretches as far as the eye can see, and the other side cannot be seen at all. And the cave is so high that you can''t even see the top of the cave when you look up.
Far away, as if in the middle of the lake, there was a hazy, green light, reflected in the dead lake water below. The surroundings were completely filled with darkness that was too thick to break.
Xiang Nan immediately jumped towards the green light. He learned the flying spell from Voldemort''s soul fragment, and his speed was no less than flying with a sword.
?The only thing is that it is not as reliable as flying with a sword or riding a broomstick, and it also consumes a lot of magic power.
…
Xiang Nan quickly came to the green light and saw that it was a small island in the middle of the lake. It was not large, only the size of a house. The island is composed of flat black stone slabs, which are empty except for the light source that emits green light.
??Looking closer, you can see that the light source is actually a stone basin. There is a base under the stone basin. The stone basin is filled with emerald green liquid, which emits sparkling phosphorescence.
Xiang Nan recognized at a glance that the liquid inside was the poison of despair.
?This poison is very terrifying. After taking it, it will remind people of the most painful, desperate, and most unwilling things deep in their hearts. It makes people suffer so much that life is worse than death.
The more you drink, the more pain you will suffer. And after drinking it, you will feel extremely thirsty. When the time comes, I won’t be able to help but drink the water from this lake.
??But Xiang Nan knew that there was an Inferi set by Voldemort in the lake.
The Inferi are dead corpses summoned by black magic. They are lifeless, soulless and thoughtless. They are afraid of fire and light and like darkness and moisture.
Inferi are not difficult to destroy, and many fire spells can kill them. However, the number of Inferi ambushed by Voldemort was too great, numbering in the hundreds.
With the exception of a few top wizards, most wizards do not have the ability to fight in groups. Those who can deal with the siege of three or four people at the same time are already top experts.
So when Voldemort set up hundreds of Inferi here, it became a sure-fire trap that few people could crack.
But this does not include Xiang Nan.
He immediately took out a bottle of magic potion from his storage bag, which was the antidote he specially made for the poison of despair, and poured it into the basin.
The poison in the basin, which was originally glowing with green phosphorescence, suddenly turned into a light pink.
