Aphasia at Hogwarts

Chapter 71 Solving Puzzles and Guan Qiong in the Mirror of Erised

Guan Qiong came to the fourth room.

When he crossed the threshold, purple flames spewed out from the top and bottom of the wooden door at the same time, sealing his back path. At the same time, flames appeared in front of the door leading to the next room, but they were black flames.

In the middle of the entire room, there was only a table with seven bottles of various shapes placed on it, and beside the bottles was a roll of parchment.

Guan Qiong didn't look at the roll of parchment first, but turned on the magic perspective to look at the seven bottles on the table.

He knew the contents of the parchment. Although he couldn't memorize it word by word, he still knew the general meaning.

Seven bottles, three bottles of poison, two bottles of wine, and two bottles of potion, one bottle drank the purple flame behind the immunity, and one bottle drank the black flame in front of the immunity.

The rest are some logical relationships, such as who is next to whom, who cannot be in the middle and leftmost, and so on, and then the people who want to use this place need to infer the location of the antidote by themselves.

But Guan Qiong had another method. He opened the magic perspective and looked at the seven bottles.

Sure enough, as he expected, only two bottles had a complete magic circuit, because they were potions. In the remaining bottles, the poison and wine had only weak magic power, but no complete circuits.

Then Guan Qiong picked up the parchment and looked at the contents on it.

The second of which reads that the contents of the bottles on the left and right cannot help him move forward.

The bottles with a complete magic circuit are the third and seventh bottles. Based on this, it is obvious that if Guan Qiong wants to move forward, he only needs to drink the potion in the third bottle.

Simple.

Guan Qiong felt relieved, but did not pick up the potion.

Just like some academic masters like to use multiple methods to solve problems, although Guan Qiong already knew the answer, at this time he was thinking of using normal methods to find the antidote.

That is, unraveling the reasoning.

After all, he is not in a hurry, and there is no Voldemort in front of him who needs him to stop it. For him, this is a game of breakthrough.

Guan Qiong began to carefully read the rules on the parchment. In fact, it is very simple to say. Except for the three bottles of poison, two bottles of magic medicine, and two bottles of wine mentioned earlier, the remaining rules are:

1. The poison must be on the left side of the wine.

2. The leftmost bottle and the rightmost bottle contain different things, and neither is a potion that is immune to black flames.

3. The shapes and sizes of the bottles are different, and the largest bottle (6th from left) and the smallest bottle (3rd from left) contain no poison.

4. The second bottle on the left (second from the left) and the second bottle on the right (sixth from the left) contain the same thing.

It's actually quite simple.

Guan Qiong looked at the rules on the parchment and thought.

First arrange the bottles in an order, from one to seven from left to right.

Then according to the common point of the third point and the fourth point, it can be concluded that the left sixth bottle is neither poison nor potion, because the left six bottle and the left second bottle are the same thing, but the two potions are different .

Therefore, the left six bottles and the left two bottles are wine.

Based on the first point, it can be deduced that the left bottle is poison, and the left seven bottles, that is, the rightmost bottle must not be poison.

At the same time, according to the second point, the left one bottle and the left seven bottles cannot make people move forward, so the left seven bottles are the magic potion that makes people immune to the purple flame.

At this time, only the second from the left, the third from the left, and the fourth from the left are left undetermined, and there are still two bottles of poison and one bottle of potion that can make people move forward.

The third bottle on the left is the smallest bottle. According to the third point, it is not filled with poison. Therefore, the potion that can make people immune to the forward movement of black flames is contained in the third bottle.

Guan Qiong calculated the whole process from her heart, picked up the third small bottle contentedly, and drank the potion inside.

As if drinking a bottle of water just taken out of the ice cellar, Guan Qiong made a small fuss, but at the same time, he could see that a complex magic circuit appeared on the surface of his body, protecting his body.

He walked forward, black flames licking his body, but felt nothing, as if they were just hallucinations.

Guan Qiong opened the door to the last room and walked in.

This room is much larger than the previous one, and there are candles hanging on the surrounding walls, and the bright light illuminates the entire space.

And in the middle of this room, there is a very imposing mirror, as high as the ceiling, with a golden frame, supported by two claw-shaped feet underneath.

And on the top of the mirror, there is a line of words engraved.

Eris Stella Ohru Aitubi Kafru Aymoon Voorhees.

Mirror of Erised.

Guan Qiong looked at the mirror, and his eyes lit up obviously.

He walked to the mirror and looked at the whole mirror.

The mirror reflected his current appearance, with black hair and black pupils, handsome appearance, less childishness on his face, and now he looked calm.

Compared to last year, he has grown a lot taller, and at the same time his body looks a lot stronger, which is mainly due to the rich meat at Hogwarts and Hagrid's rock cakes.

However, as the magic power was connected to Guan Qiong from the Mirror of Erised, the contents of the mirror began to change.

Guan Qiong's face began to mature, growing rapidly from twelve to eighteen, and then stopped at twenty-two.

At the same time, the clothes on his body have also changed, no longer a wizard robe, but loose casual clothes, with a relaxed expression on his face, and a camera hanging on his chest.

The background is also constantly changing, from the Great Wall to the tropical rainforest, from the Land of Dragons to the Thunder Valley, all of which Guan Qiong has seen in books and wants to go.

Guan Qiong watched this scene with a smile on her face, but her eyes were still clear.

This is indeed what he wants, but he cannot be deceived from this mirror.

Travelers will not be satisfied just watching travel videos, they still have to go on a field trip to truly appreciate the scenery.

However, as the magic power connected to him increased, the things in the mirror began to change, the camera became more advanced, and a square metal block appeared in Guan Qiong's hand.

OK, that's it.

Guan Qiong let her magic power surge, forming a tidal wave of magic power around her, separating all the magic power connected by the Mirror of Erised.

Like the surface of a lake thrown into stones, the mirror caused ripples and then returned to calm. At this time, it reflected Guan Qiong himself.

Guan Qiong let out a sigh of relief. To be honest, if he didn't have this little trick to avoid the Mirror of Erised, he wouldn't dare to come here. If he took a photo of an iphone14 or something, it wouldn't be clear.

He knew it, Dumbledore had a way to know what was reflected in the mirror.
