Although Ai Wen has been to Gringotts many times before, but has never entered the underground vault, his Jin Jialong is basically with the profit.
Hermione, like him, has never been to the depths of the Gringotts.
Only Harry, because his parents left him a legacy, he had to go to his vault to get some Jin Jialong as a tuition before the school.
Regardless of whether you have been to the Gulin Pavilion underground, they have a strong interest in the Black House treasury.
Although in the words of Sirius, there is nothing to look at, but it is full of boring gold.
But you can fill a whole room with gold, and it will be shocking enough to think about it.
Today is the first day after Christmas. Like the Muggle street outside, the diagonal alley is cold and clear, and it is covered with white snow everywhere.
On the street, except for a few of them, there are no other people, and many shops have not opened.
Everyone was still worried, fearing that the Gringotts did not open the door.
But when they walked to the towering snow-white attic in the central square of Diagonal Lane, the thick snow on the ground was cleared, and the shiny bronze door was opened. A fairy dressed in a scarlet and gold uniform was Stand there.
"The goblins are extremely dedicated. They are open all year round. During the Christmas holidays, only the Gulin Pavilion will open as usual." Lu Ping whispered.
"Don't mislead the children, Remus! We all know why the goblins don't rest, not to be dedicated, but because they are greedy enough. If you want me to see, these goblins won't care about Christmas." Sirius said disdainfully. "For them, gold is more important than the holiday."
Sirius did not lower his voice. The fairy who stood in front of the bronze door obviously heard this sentence. The eyes that looked at them were not as friendly as usual.
He still bows to everyone, but the action is hard.
Ai Wen saw that the fairy looked like his height, and had a smart, dark face and a pointed beard. His hands and feet were particularly long.
"Gentlemen, please go here!" He led them into the Gringotts.
Behind the bronze gate is the second silver door.
When I first came to Gringotts, Ivan just felt that the door was extremely beautiful from the senses.
Later, by reading the relevant literature, he knew that this door was the gate of the original establishment of the ancient spirits thousands of years ago. It was made of sterling silver by the fairy, and a lot of magic was retouched by the greatest alchemist at that time.
Ancient magic may not work, but the door itself has historical value.
A row of texts engraved on the two doors is a warning word left by the goblins. It seems to be a curse. It is said in a verse that the thief will suffer bad news.
In the Gringotts, behind the long counter, the goblins sat on the high stools, receiving the first customers of the day, and the goblin who led them in led them to a very old fairy in the center.
"Sirius Black!" Seeing Sirius, the goblin was obviously very surprised. "I am a rare friend. What can I do for you today?"
Perhaps it is the dark experience of Sirius in Azkaban, and the rumors of the Death Eaters who said that he is a murderer. The goblin stunned.
"I want to go to the vault, not my own vault, but the black family's vault." Sirius added an accent on the Black family.
"The Black House's vault?!" The old fairy leaned back and then pulled the body out of the counter. "Do you carry the key?"
"Bring it!" Sirius found a rusty key and threw it on the counter.
Ai Wen noticed that the key was long and it was engraved with the emblem of the Black family.
"Very good, no problem." The fairy kept frowning and continued. "We can let you in, but you know, the old treasury of your family is in a special area, and the surrounding protection measures are very strong. You better have only one person.
"We have to go down together, I don't care what special area!" Sirius said impatiently. "Don't waste time, there are still many things waiting for me to do."
They stalemate for a while and finally take a step back.
Lu Ping stayed on top of them, and Sirius took Ai Wen, Harry, and Hermione three. The goblin agreed with this suggestion. In his opinion, Ai Wen is only a child, and is not qualified enough for defense.
Seeing the other side so cautious, Ai Wen was more curious about the treasury of the Black family in a special area, guessing what could be there.
"Pull ring, you take them four to the underground vault." The old goblin recruited and waved, said to the fairy who just led them in.
The pull ring seems to have anticipated this for a long time, and his eyes flashed through the unwelcome light.
Behind the counter was a narrow side door, and he ran over to open the door for them.
Ai Wen went in and would have seen the architectural style similar to the tall marble hall outside, but he had a narrow stone gallery in front of him, and the burning torch illuminated it as if it were an old mine.
The stone corridor is a steep downhill with a small railway below.
The pull ring whistled and a small cart rushed towards them along the railway.
Ha interest rate first climbed into the car, looks very skilled, he introduced to the next Ivan and Hermione should pay attention to.
"This car will run very fast for a while, you'd better hurry up," Harry reminded. "The road inside is meandering, like a maze."
When I heard Harry, both Avon and Hermione were ready.
But the speed of the stroller far exceeded their imagination, and the last Sirius was just getting ready, and the pull ring hit a point.
The stroller suddenly started, the speed is getting faster and faster, and there seems to be no limit.
It took them a few whistling into a gap in the wall, galloping along the labyrinth of twists and turns, and rushing forward.
Deep in the ground, black lacquered, cold air hits the surface.
The sound of the car made Ai Wen unable to hear anything. He only knew that they kept turning sharply between the stalactites and darting towards the depths of the earth.
Beside Ai Wen, Sirius, Harry, and Hermione's hair flew backwards. The three of them didn't look too good, and they looked around nervously.
Only the leprechaun who called the pull ring was particularly happy. He turned his head and looked at them with gloating.
The pull ring wields fingers from time to time, and the speed of the stroller is accelerated after each shaking.
Because of what Sirius had just said, he was retaliating against them.
In addition to being greedy enough, the goblin is definitely the smallest creature in the world, and you must report it.
If you accidentally offend a fairy, he may remember for a lifetime.
Although I know that the other side is bad, I am still looking for death now.
Ai Wen insisted that after about twenty minutes, the four of them had already rushed to a deeper place under the ground.
They passed through an underground lake, covered with huge stalactites and stalagmites, and hanged to the ground.
"I haven't been to such a deep place before!" Harry shouted. "I just passed through the rocks, as if I saw something in the fire."
His shouts suddenly stopped, they quickly turned a sharp bend, and the stroller slowly stopped.
"Please get off, everyone! We have to change the car. We will use the deeper stroller to the Black House's vault." The pull ring took the lead and jumped. "Please go here, we need to walk for a while."
But no one but him, everyone looked at the front.
In front of them, Ai Wen saw what Harry had just seen, a huge fire dragon lying on the ground not far away, preventing people from approaching the deeper treasury.
Because the confinement was underground for too long, the scales on the dragon had become pale and loose. Its eyes were turbid pink, and both hind legs were wearing heavy shackles. The thick chains above were deeply penetrated into the stone. The giant pile of the ground.
Its spiked giant wings gather on both sides of the body, and if unfolded it will fill the entire basement. Induction of someone approaching, the dragon turned to their ugly heads and made a giant gong that shook the stone. It opened a large mouth and spewed a fire with an amazing heat wave.
