Sword and Magic and Taxi

After a short exam season, Hogwarts once again ushered in the holiday. "winter vacation". Because it feels like there is not even a long holiday for Christmas and New Year's Day, many students choose to stay at Hogwarts, or prepare for the next semester course, or participate in the Quidditch team training. Some senior students, especially those who have passed the general wizarding level exam, will go to Hogsmeade to work and look forward to one day being able to start their own business.

As Zhao Mai had expected, his enduring environmental medicine was quickly welcomed by his classmates and became one of the tools that he must prepare for the new semester. Barbara showed her talent in alchemy and potions. Thanks to her efforts, the potions have never been out of stock. In just over twenty days, the magic drug store had income of 112 gold coins-you know the price of a wand is no more than a few gold coins.

Zhao Mai took out twenty gold coins as a bonus to reward Barbara's efforts, and then came to Gringotts with the remaining money. "Everything starts from Gringotts." The words he said before leaving made Xiao Hua worried. You can apply for a personal account with 88 gold coins here, own an underground cave, and pass it on from generation to generation. The wizarding family will choose to let the goblins of Gringotts take care of their wealth. For example, the Potter family owns Vault No. 687, and Vault No. 713 belongs to Dumbledore.

"Dragon Roar? This name is really strange." The goblins of Gringotts have always been serious. They don't serve the wizard, but the wizard's gold coins, so they don't say too many strange things. "The numbers of all vaults are random, and the gates vary according to the requirements and the level of the commission. But even the simplest wooden doors are very safe. Gringotts are protected by the magic of goblins and goblins."

"Oh, that's the simplest wooden door, it's free of charge, right."

The goblin squeezed a long "Yeah" from his long nose, held the small glasses with his slender fingers, and slowly said, "Let me see, which room has a wooden door. Oh, Number six hundred and sixty-sixth."

"666?" Zhao Mai nodded: "Just it."

The goblin raised his eyes, looked at Zhao Mai over the lens for a while, and then nodded: "That's number 666. You are very welcome to use the service of Gringotts. We will put your deposit in vault 666."

"I want to see my own vault." Zhao Mai said, "Although there are only 88 gold coins, I can put them in by myself."

The goblin's gaze stopped for a few seconds on Zhao Mai's face, and then said: "Of course, your treasury and your time, you are in charge."

A young goblin named Grihawk serves them. It was short in stature, but extremely agile. After running with the shaky little miner's lamp in his hand, he jumped into the minecart with a relaxed hurdle movement.

For Zhao Mai, the minecart looks a little cramped, and the steel seat is a torture to the hips and knees. They proceeded along the tortuous passage, as if traversing a maze, up and down, left and right BABA. The small minecart is advancing fast, stunned the passengers with the fastest speed possible. Most wizards feel headaches and then forget the path. Zhao Mai looked all the way, stuffing his knowledge into the memory crystal. Although he was also stunned, the whole process was recorded, including the vaults he passed by.

They drove down, passing through the gates of countless vaults. The vault number here has only three digits, from 001 to 999. "Actually, there are not that big number. There are only more than 700 rooms now. Wizards can't use so many numbers." Grihawk stood upside down on the edge of the minecart, winking at Zhao Mai: "You are really smart, choose Vault 666."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because vault 666 is the strongest, except for the gate, of course." Grihawk said: "The first vault belonged to the Ministry of Magic. They used the strongest gate and walls to protect the contents. Then one day, The Ministry of Magic decided not to renew the contract with Vault 666, and removed the door, and then replaced it with a wooden door. In terms of the area of ​​the vault, Vault 666 can be ranked in the top three."

"Then I am really lucky." Zhao Mai made a friendly expression and secretly used psychic powers to influence the goblins: "Can you tell me why no one has used Vault 666 afterwards?"

"The wizards are very superstitious. They later claimed that they didn't like this number. Moreover, the 666 vault is almost at the bottom of Gringotts. The journey is bumpy. To be honest, you are the best-physical wizard I have ever seen. So far there hasn't been a trace of discomfort."

"Someone once said that I was a dragon." Zhao Mai smiled, and the goblin also smiled. It has been affected by psychic powers, and it has slowly begun to take off guard against Zhao Mai. Grihawk turned over and sat opposite Zhao Mai, boasting to him: "In the entire Gringotts, only three goblins can reach the bottom layer. I am one of them, so I can be sure You said, you are not a dragon!"

"Why do you say that?"

"Because I have seen a dragon!" The goblin snapped his fingers, and then blew his whistle. With the whistle, a fire burst out in the distant darkness, and then quickly disappeared under the cover of the pitch-black rock ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The dragon was there, as one of the strongest guards of Gringotts. "Grihawk licked the sharp teeth with his tongue, and then said with a smile: "That is a stupid and gluttonous dragon, definitely not as friendly and talkative as you." Oh, here we are. "

Vault 666 is indeed at the bottom of Gringotts, because the track of the sport mine cart ends here. There is a solid ground under their feet, and there is no deeper mine. The air here is icy cold, wrapped in a damp chill, reminiscent of the place where the dead are sleeping.

The vault gate is ten meters high and the width is almost the same. It can be seen that there were bolts designed for strong metal gates in the past, but now only two thin thin wooden boards are placed on it. The goblin's lantern can only illuminate the distance of about two steps around, but Zhao Mai's eyes have adapted to the darkness through "evolution", so he will look at everything carefully. He noticed the scorched black traces on the ground and the black shadows resembling human figures on the walls, which were definitely caused by magical attacks, and only the instantaneous extremely high temperature could complete such a creation.

There is only a simple padlock on the vault door, and the price of this lock will never exceed half a pound. The goblin lifted a stone by the gate, took out the key from below, and unlocked it in a second. Zhao Mai smiled bitterly, and indeed found a corresponding and suitable place for his 88 gold coins.
