Chapter 100 - At the banquet of the dead
After Nick knelt down, the air in the responsive room seemed strange, and Hermione covered her mouth in surprise.
Ryan felt that Hanmao was standing upright at this time. After all, according to the Eastern saying, letting people older than their own grade kneel to themselves would have to lose their lives. How long should Nick’s 500-year-old fold.
Not to mention that this is a corrupt country, Nick’s action is too much like courtship, and Hermione may have wanted to be crooked behind.
In order to save his image, Ryan quickly said like Nick: “Sir, if you have any help for me, please say directly, don’t look like this. I can’t bear such courtesy.”
Nick also seemed to be agitated just now, and now Ryan wakes up as soon as he says it. He stood up and said, “Sorry, I was scared by the excitement just now. But I really have something important that needs your help.”
After talking, Nick pulled his ears and broke his head off. Ryan heard Hermione’s inhalation behind him, and he also felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.
At this time Nick said: “Look, I was cut 44 times with a blunt axe around my neck. I want it to be cleaner and cleaner than anyone would want. But it’s a pity, because there is so little skin on it. I’m dying They will be squeezed out afterwards. Are they suffering more from their heads than me? “
Lane saw Nick’s face brightened, and should be very angry.
“They didn’t suffer as much as I did, but because their heads moved completely and pushed me out. So–” Speaking of which, Nick took a breath and calmed down. “Lane, I just saw what you caused in our ghost. The ability of the wound, so I want to ask you to help me cut off the rest of the skin. “
Ryan felt a little ill after hearing Nick’s request. After all, cutting off a person’s neck, even if it was just a ghost’s neck, was a little too exciting for him.
So he said to Nick: “Be aware that in the East, the complete separation of the head and body is a very auspicious symbol. In ancient times, even the beheading, the executioner tried to leave a little skin. So do you want to think about it.”
“I’ve been thinking about it for almost 500 years.” Nick said with a suppressed voice. “You don’t have to worry about those things. After all, this is the UK, and the situation is different everywhere. You should help a friend for a small favor.”
“This.” Ryan looked back at Hermione in a panic, hoping to get a suggestion from her. Hermione was also frightened by this strange request, her hands twisted together in front of her chest, staring down at her shoes without knowing what to say.
After being silent for a long time, Hermione finally raised her head and said, “I think the adjective almost headless is too bad for a ghost, and this humiliation Nick has endured for nearly five hundred years. Ryan, if you can He will help him as much as possible. After all, he is the ghost of our Gryffindor. “
Well, it seems that Hermione put forward a more powerful reason. Ryan thought about it after listening to it, and finally made up her mind. He raised his head and looked at Nick, who was staring at him with an uneasy eye and said:
“Well, I can help you. But you can’t say this to the outside world.”
“Relax, I won’t say anything outside, I swear in the name of Sir Poppington.”
Ryan nodded, and let Nick hold his head with both hands, struggling to lift it up, then took a deep breath, and said in his mouth that he was a dead man. Then raised the calamus sword and waved hard at the spot where the flesh and flesh were connected.
The flesh broke off, and Nick threw his head on the ceiling because his hands were too hard.
Perhaps because Nick has just become completely headless, Sir Nick’s body looks a little clumsy. It took him a lot of time to adjust and successfully put his head around his neck.
But Ryan can see that Nick ’s mood is very good now, and the brightness of the whole spirit is much brighter than before.
After dancing in the air for a while, Nick finally remembered Ryan. He floated to Ryan and said excitedly: “Thank you for helping me fulfill my wish for hundreds of years. I will remember your favor, you are my forever. friend.”
After Ryan finished today’s work and Hermione was ready to make a request room, Nick asked Ryan to help him keep this secret temporarily. Because he wanted to blockbuster at his banquet.
On the way out of the request room to the library, Hermione asked Ryan curiously: “Is the ghost very different from us in many ways? At least I don’t think normal humans will have that strange request.”
“I read that most of the ghosts in my book are the same as they were before, but it does not rule out that some ghosts have their own obsessions after death. Obviously Nick ’s obsession is its neck, so he will only propose so strange Request. “Ryan replied with a shrug.
The days passed quickly, and Halloween came. The auditorium was decorated with bats and carved pumpkin lanterns. Everyone is rumoring that Dumbledore invited the Skeleton Song and Dance Troupe to perform.
“Hah, I can’t figure out why you go to that kind of cold and damp place. You know that the Halloween banquet has more food than usual ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Lean and Hermione are preparing to go to the underground classroom in front of the auditorium , Ron standing next to Harry said to them both.
“Just know that eating, you don’t understand the beauty of gaining knowledge.” Hermione responded, and then pulled Ryan into the underground classroom.
On the way, Ryan took out the pre-painted rune paper and handed it to Hermione: “Living people and undead are together for a long time is not good, with this you will not be affected.”
“Is this the magical scripture of the heavenly dynasty? It looks completely different from our ancient magical scripture.” Hermione said as he stuffed this rune paper into his clothes pocket.
The corridor was lit with tiny black candles, and the light of Lan Yingying was on it. Ryan felt that Nick created an atmosphere closer to Halloween than in the auditorium.
Every step in the underground classroom, they can feel that the temperature is a bit lower. Fortunately, the rune paper was also activated at this time, keeping this cold breath out of the body.
The sound of nails drawing blackboards echoed in the corridor, maybe this is the music of the dead.
Arrived at the door of the classroom, they saw Nick dressed up and greeted the guests at the door.
“Welcome, my dear friend.” Nick took off his hat and bowed. “Please come in soon, thank you for your help, I think this banquet will be the biggest banquet in the three hundred years of Britain.”
The temperature in the basement is lower, and Ryan and Hermione can breathe out even with one mouth. In the temporary dance floor on the open space of the classroom, hundreds of ghosts huddled together waltzing. On the stage, a group of ghosts were making noise with a music saw. The blue light from a thousand candles in the chandelier on the ceiling illuminated all this clearly.
“This is more like a Halloween in a real magical world than a banquet in the auditorium.” Lane heard Hermione excitedly beside him.
