The Deep Sea Wizard of Hogwarts
Chapter 36 White Ship
Jane was also startled by the sudden appearance of Madam Pince, and then she realized that she was still in the library. Hermione looked at this side with a worried look.
"I..." Jane couldn't say a word for a long time, her face flushed.
"I think you have disturbed a lot of people." Madam Pince's words were squeezed out from her teeth.
"Sorry, Madam Pince, we will leave now." As she said that, Linde pulled Jane's sleeve.
"By the way, madam. I want to borrow this book." He put away the lunch box that Jane brought for him. Then he picked up the book "Mysterious Atlantis".
Then Linde stuffed the lunch box to Jane, who was a little confused, and put the books back in place one by one.
He put the books next to their respective bookcases, and then these books would automatically return to their original positions as if they were attracted. In less than a minute, he put all the books back.
At this time, Madam Pince had returned to the door of the library again. She continued to stare at the little wizards in the library. When she saw Hermione, her eyes became softer.
Then she would become very alert when she saw some little wizards who looked restless, fearing that they would dirty or damage her books.
However, her eyes would often stay on Lind and Jane.
She didn't really intend to drive the two little wizards out. They might just suddenly discuss a certain issue and then suddenly quarrel. This kind of scene was not the first time she encountered it. Just remind them.
She was also worried about Lind. She had noticed this little wizard for a long time. He had come to her in the morning to ask about relevant books and he had not left here until now. She liked the little wizard who loved reading, but it was not advisable to read for such a long time.
She just walked over and looked at Lind's bloodshot eyes and pale face. She suddenly had the idea of driving this little guy out.
Since this little wizard said she wanted to go out, let her go out!
Then she looked at Hermione again, thinking about how to persuade this little witch gently.
Lind took the book, and then came here to handle the borrowing procedures, and then they walked out.
Before leaving, Madam Pince gently reminded him that although the stories in the book were beautiful, he should also take care of his health, as too much is as bad as too little.
Lind nodded quickly, and he could see the worry under Madam Pince's stern face.
On the contrary, Jane thought she was kicked out because she was too noisy until she walked out of the library.
But she didn't feel sorry for Lind, she just felt that she was too embarrassed to be kicked out in such a public place.
But after they walked out of a short corridor, her mentality had been adjusted and she continued the previous topic.
"If I remember correctly, some conjectures about Atlantis were not proven until the end of the last century.
And you can see that this book is a product of the eighteenth century, and even some of the words in it are only used in this century..."
Jane said, and something was wrong. Lind seemed to have heard a question.
"No, this looks like an old book from the eighteenth century! How can there be so many relatively trendy remarks." Jane snatched the book from Lind's hand.
"You mean, this looks like an old book, but it's actually a new book?" Linde asked tentatively.
"Yes, many books at that time were written with rat skin and twigs of the western iron tree for easy preservation. Books made in this way can be preserved for hundreds or thousands of years.
But at the beginning of the twentieth century, there was a new magic book printing technology that was easier to preserve and copy. So this technology has been used for a long time." Jane turned the page again and looked at the content on it.
"Rat and western iron tree?" Linde asked in confusion.
"Yes, this is a very old technology. The skin of the rat is very thick, and with the infiltration of the western iron tree branches, the content written will never fall off like a tattoo." Jane explained.
"But this technology has been innovated in this century, and because this technology seriously endangers the production of rats and western iron trees, it has been used for a long time." Jane continued to explain.
These touched Linde's knowledge blind spot, so he simply didn't bother Jane, but let her continue thinking.
The two stood at the corner of the corridor, maintaining a state of silence.
Jane picked up a page with two fingers and rubbed it gently with her fingertips.
"This is not the kind of rat skin I have seen, it is the skin of other animals." Jane whispered.
As she rubbed it, a small crack gradually appeared in the middle of the page.
"Give me some light!" Jane squinted her eyes as much as she could, but most of the light in Hogwarts came from the ubiquitous candles, so she still couldn't see clearly in many places, so she could only call out to Linde.
"Lumos!"
Linde pulled out his wand and quietly released a fluorescent spell. With the arrival of the light, he also saw the small crack.
Jane saw the small crack and increased the intensity of rubbing her hands, and the crack gradually became larger.
One page gradually turned into two. In the hidden page, there was content scribbled in an unknown blue ink. It can be seen that there are a lot of corrections on it, and there are also long strings of undivided sentences.
"There's actually a mezzanine here?!"
"There's actually a mezzanine here?!"
The two said this in unison.
"Keep going!" Lind urged hurriedly, he was eager to see if the other pages of the book could also be split into two.
Jane picked up other pages and repeated the trick, and then she sat directly on the stairs.
Lind maintained the fluorescent spell, and white light spread from the tip of his wand. The two sat on the stairs of the castle, and people who passed by just walked away quickly.
After a while, the two divided the whole book into two parts.
Unlike what Lind thought at the beginning, only some pages of this whole book could be separated into two parts.
The separated interlayer content was full of things written in blue ink, and it looked like a manuscript.
In this way, there was an extra manuscript of about three or four pages in the original "Mysterious Atlantis".
Jane was also very curious about the content. She turned over the first page of the manuscript, pushed the book towards Lind, and then read it in the corridor.
"My name is Bashir Elton. I inherited the work of my father and grandfather and worked as a lightkeeper at the North Cape Lighthouse. ... I must write down this story that I personally experienced.
Since I came back, I have gradually forgotten that incident. My head is in a daze. Every night, I listen to the sound of the waves rolling and hitting outside. These sounds gradually turn into unknown mumblings and reach my ears. It says: Forget it, forget it."
"Bashir, the author of this book." Jane whispered softly. Although the letters on the manuscript are extremely difficult to recognize, and the author's cultural literacy is not high, it is particularly difficult for them to read.
And his mental state when he wrote this manuscript should also be problematic. Linde added another item in his mind.
"...My grandfather told me: In the past, a large fleet with white sails would sail from the distant coastline, and the ship still retained the warmth of the sunshine on the eastern coast and the sweet fragrance from the exotic gardens and magnificent temples.
One day, when the full moon was shining in the sky, I boarded a strange ship with white sails flying high. A man on the ship invited me to sail with him to the beautiful unknown coast..."
