Chapter 56 He Can't Hurt Me
"Don't you feel sorry for that child? I thought this could help him a little." Jiang Li replied.
"I didn't expect you were a saint. Remus would probably be moved to tears knowing that you cared so much about him." Snape sneered.
Jiang Li looked at him and said, "If I wasn't kind, we wouldn't have met in the first place."
Snape was silent.
The air became quiet, and the atmosphere between the two became somewhat solemn.
"Severus, I know you are worried about me because Lupin is a werewolf and if I help him, it might cause me some trouble."
Looking at Snape who turned his face away in silence, Jiang Li grabbed his sleeve and looked into his black eyes.
"But I think if you had met some kind people before I showed up, your journey wouldn't have been so difficult."
She raised her hand and gently placed it between Snape's brows and said, "I feel sorry for you."
Snape seemed to be electrocuted. He shook off Jiang Li's hand and didn't dare to look her in the eye.
"You're saying something disgusting."
His tone sounded a little angry, and his ears, hidden by his black hair, were red as blood.
"I agree to let Remus come over, but don't say disgusting things here to annoy me."
"I'm not disgusting you. Everything I said is true." Jiang Li said seriously.
She felt that Snape was much more unlucky than herself. Although she was also unlucky, she had people who loved and cared for her and supported her along the way.
But Snape was different. He had been walking alone in the darkness. No one knew what he had paid for, and no one even knew whether there would be dawn after his death.
Snape felt that he must have gone crazy. Jiang Li's simple words had touched his heartstrings, and his heartbeat was frighteningly fast.
"I have to go back now. I'm afraid I'll be caught as a student wandering around at night."
Now he just wanted to stay away from Jiang Li and go back to the dormitory to have a good rest.
His current situation was so strange that Snape even suspected that Jiang Li had drugged him.
"and many more."
Jiang Li saw him about to leave and grabbed the back of his collar.
Snape, who was about to escape, lost his strength and was almost strangled to death by Jiang Li's action.
He turned his head and glared at the culprit fiercely.
Jiang Li immediately let go of his hand, looked at him innocently and said, "Don't blame me, you walked too fast."
Snape's heart was beating very fast just now, but facing Jiang Li's serious look and nonsense, he calmed down instantly.
"What else do you want?"
He tugged at his collar; the top button had just been torn off, and the silver-green silk tie hung loosely on his collar.
Snape felt a little annoyed and glared at Jiang Li unhappily.
Jiang Li was not panicked at all, and said with a smile: "Didn't I say before that I would take you to a place? Are you going to go back without taking a look with me?"
Only then did Snape remember the purpose of his visit, which he had forgotten because of Jiang Li's anger.
"It happens that I am on duty today. You can come with me to the back of the Room of Requirement and we can go to the Forbidden Forest together to collect the herbs we need."
Jiang Li arranged his next schedule and had no plans to experiment with the time converter. He wanted to go to the Forbidden Forest for some fun.
"Room of Requirement?" Snape looked at Jiang Li in surprise and asked, "How did you find it?"
Jiang Li had already walked out. Seeing Snape still behind him, he slowed down and said, "I found the space overlapped when I was touring at night. I tried a few more times and found it. Why? Haven't you been there before?"
Snape fell silent.
When he was a student, he had heard of the existence of the Room of Requirement, but had never found it. Later, when he was teaching at Hogwarts, although he had some awareness of it, he no longer had the enthusiasm to explore it.
The two walked up from the first floor to the eighth floor.
Jiang Li walked barefoot on the floor, feeling a chill on the soles of his feet.
Snape followed behind her, holding the high heels she had taken off, and complained pointedly: "Knowing that you were going to such a high floor, you shouldn't have dressed like this in the first place."
"But don't you think this looks good?"
Jiang Li lifted up her skirt and turned around in front of Snape. The gilded blue skirt fluttered in the air like a butterfly.
Beautiful indeed.
Snape thought about it and said mercilessly, "So this is why you went barefoot in the minus temperature? I thought only idiots who cared about appearances would do such a thing."
"It's a bad review, I won't listen to it." Jiang Li said.
If a person has endless time but allows himself to become ugly, he probably does not know how to enjoy time.
Jiang Li stood in front of the wall and fiddled with it for a while, and a door appeared in front of her.
She took the shoes from Snape, put them on, and walked into the Room of Requirement.
Just like last time, this place is filled with all kinds of things.
Snape looked around here curiously and felt that it was completely different from the Room of Requirement he had imagined.
There was still thick dust on the ground, no wonder Jiang Li had to wear shoes when coming in.
He picked up a potion bottle and found that it contained a love potion. His face changed slightly and he immediately threw it away.
This is simply a huge garbage dump.
He saw Jiang Li walking towards the corner and followed him.
Then Jiang Li waved his wand and took out a dusty crown from the garbage pile.
"Severus, stay away."
Jiang Li noticed his position and threw the crown away.
As soon as it fell to the ground, a black gas instantly emerged from the crown. A terrifying snake head could be vaguely seen in the black gas, and there were also murmurs.
Snape froze, his hands and feet cold.
He felt the breath of the Dark Lord on this crown.
This is Voldemort's Horcrux.
Memories of his previous life flooded into his mind like a tide. The prophecy, Lily's corpse, scenes flashed through his mind.
"Severus, what's wrong with you?"
Feeling that something was wrong with his condition, Jiang Li stepped forward and held his hand, which felt a little cold.
Snape recovered, looked at the man in front of him, and said seriously: "This is something the Dark Lord hid here. You shouldn't touch it."
"Is this Voldemort's thing?" Jiang Li asked in surprise, "Isn't he still alive? How could he have cut off his soul and placed it on it?"
She thought it was a dying person with a broken soul attached to it.
"He yearns for the glory of eternal life." Snape looked at the crown with a serious expression and said, "He split his soul into pieces and made them into Horcruxes in an attempt to gain eternal life."
In fact, Voldemort did succeed. Although he gradually became crazy and violent, when he first saw Voldemort, he still looked like he was eighteen years old.
Thinking of his past life, Snape's face turned gloomy.
Jiang Li found it hard to understand this behavior.
Cultivation emphasizes the importance of maintaining unity and keeping the origin. Cutting the soul is tantamount to seeking self-destruction. If eternal life can be achieved in this way, the Tianyuan Continent would be littered with soul fragments.
She also felt a little disgusted with the crown and kicked it onto the high pile of garbage.
"What are you doing!"
Snape was frightened by her action and hurried forward to check on her condition.
Jiang Li waved his hand and said calmly: "It's okay, he can't hurt me."
Her sea of consciousness was very powerful. She had devoured many residual souls of demons who wanted to take over her body before. She was not afraid of this residual soul taking over her body at all. The main problem was that the curse on it was a bit troublesome to deal with.
