Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 862 The Silent River
The Brenta River used to be a turbulent river, but with the operation of the hydraulic locks in the 15th century, it became quiet, and there are many noble villas scattered on this fertile land.

They are like houses along the Grand Canal, with the best side of the villa facing the river.

During World War II, although Italy was not bombed, the Japanese government still destroyed these ancient relics. Almost all of Palladio’s designs were listed as world cultural heritage. The Foscari they visited just now The villa was one of them, and that villa was built after Francesco Foscari's death. Logically, that house should have nothing to do with him.

But he is a member of the Foscari family, and not all the ghosts that roam Hogwarts are related to the founder of the school like Helena.

In 1945, the retreating German army completely blew up an old wooden bridge in Bassano. It was made of wood just like the bridge from the castle to Hogsmeade. Fortunately, Palladio's design drawings are still there. In 1948, a gallery The bridge reappeared over the river in Bassano, looking no different from the one it had nearly 400 years ago.

The haunted house has its own reasons for being haunted. Unlike the haunted house that released rumors in the screaming house, the real haunted house does not necessarily look dilapidated, but in good condition. The Republic of Venice annexed Padua around 1410. At that time, the first round of witch hunts had already begun.

The countryside is not necessarily simple and safe. The vampire countess is doing evil in her own territory.

Both the Salem Witch Trials and the Bell Witch Trials took place in the suburbs. Compared with the cities, the number of police in the suburbs is much smaller, and there is very little they can do in the face of that situation. In an article about medieval witches In the confessions of the interrogation, various wizards admitted their ability to become invisible and change shape after extorting confessions by torture. In addition, they also mentioned the "school" assembly.

The drastic changes in the weather, the plague and the birth of deformed children made Muggle farmers panic and helpless.

Sometimes I have to admit that there is a huge gap between people's intelligence.

Some people can understand the spiritual problems of the universe, and some people can only carry out simple orders: "The hedges in this area need to be cut down, and you will be paid after the shoveling." Discussing "tradition" and "innovation" with him is completely unreasonable. It's stupid, why complicate a simple problem?
To those of superior understanding, some behave in a way that is bewildering.

In the 15th century, there was a rich man named Julian in Venice. He made a living by selling counterfeit medicines. He claimed that he could live to 100 years old after taking his medicine packs. In fact, he himself lived to be 82 years old and died, but he bought other medicines. There are still a lot of people, and later he also sold "liar's silver" for treating syphilis. He soon became a rich man, like the second Medici family. Not only did he have a house on the main island of Venice, but he also donated money to build a The church, and another manor was built in the Brenta River, and this time the agent took them to see this house.

It sold because of the bad reputation of both its owner and those who lived here afterward.

Not far from this family is the famous Villa of Sighs. The hostess of that villa was exiled to the country villa by her husband because she took too much care, and the lively salon could not dilute her sadness.

She always "sighed" when she was alive, and continued to sigh after she died. That villa used to be very luxurious, but now it is abandoned.

After Severus cast the Imperius Curse on the manager, they finally knew why these "legacy of the Republic of Venice" were being put up for sale.

After so many years, the nature of profiteers in Venice has not changed. This is the same as the "Plague Island" development plan organized by the city government.

Which is better, a haunted ruin or a notorious den of thieves?
What the Germans have done is probably more terrifying than that female ghost who always cries, not to mention that she has always felt that this land is weird.

Like in a horror movie where a woman hangs from a tree branch, and Pomona is standing under her dead body, feeling cold from the top of her head to the soles of her feet.

People who commit suicide will go to hell, and sacrificing themselves is more terrifying than sacrificing others, or else women are crazy.

"Damn Muggles, show us a haunted house." She couldn't help cursing, she was almost cheated!

"Are you still afraid of ghosts?" Severus sneered coldly.

"Is there no other better choice?" she asked.

"What better choice? You want to live in Titian's villa?"

She wouldn't be so stupid, Titian's house would only be treated as a museum, so she wouldn't sell it.

"I hate Italians," she said angrily, and it was treacherous.

The real good thing XZ is tucking in and taking out the "waste" to deceive people. This kind of "waste utilization" is too irritating.

"Which one would you like to see? Julian's Villa or the Villa of Sighs?"

Her first thought was Moaning Myrtle, and if the ghost of the Villa of Sighs was as annoying as Myrtle, maybe Draco would rather live in Julian the Deceit's villa.

However, if Julian's villa was as dead as Malfoy Manor, he might rather have a ghost as his neighbor.

People have died in old houses, but it also depends on the way the predecessor died. Of course, it is not terrible to die on a soft bed surrounded by descendants. What is terrible is violent death.

"Let's go and see the Villa of Sighs." She thought for a long time, and finally said reluctantly.

After all, that villa was also designed by Palladio.

Rich people have many houses, so they can do this kind of "exile" of their wives. Paris' mother was also "exiled" to the countryside by his father, and he and Mrs. Zabini were in social circles. Out of the couple, with a look of incomparable affection, in the end he also died like Mrs. Zabini's previous husbands.

A total of 7 men died, and the men stayed away from the charitable, charming, gentle and charming woman, because she didn't look like that kind of "black widow".

Beauty is very important, but beauty is not everything. Judging from the portrait of Mrs. Pompadour, she is not very beautiful, at least not as beautiful as Marie, but she is the only public mistress of Louis XV, even though his illegitimate child has died. There were dozens, and none of the pretty young women who could bear children could shake her.

To be the hostess of an aristocratic family, one must first learn to look at people, even house elves and Klicher who would betray their masters, let alone servants in human form.

Generally speaking, men with ambition will not be servants, but there are also some people who stay in a certain family for various reasons, even if they have special skills.

In Batman's story, there is the butler Alfred. After the young Bruce Wayne lost his parents, he fulfilled his responsibility to protect him, did not embezzle Wayne's family property, and even drove away those who wanted to carve up Wayne. family property.

It is because of this story that when Harry gave Klitsch the locket of Slytherin and gave him his freedom, Pomona told him that he could stay in the Black house.

Kerry could choose to stay in the lively Hogwarts kitchen, but he chose to stay alone in that old house and live alone.

He's a free house-elf, though he's not freed by Hermione Granger's "vomit".

The top student from the Muggle school was brainwashed by Western-style freedom and democracy, but she didn't feel it, and instead brought this set into the wizarding world and instilled it in the house elves.

Not everyone is greedy for a rich life, and some people simply want to have enough food and live an ordinary and peaceful life. He will come forward to prevent everyone from hurting a "witch" when the crowd is angry. People who have no education but feel that they are doing justice, fabricating lies, and accusing "witches" like Kepler's mother are much more rational.

The Brenta River is closer to the Alps. The slowly flowing river reflects the snow-capped mountains like a mirror, and there are swans and wild ducks looking for food in the water.

This setting is really suitable for a picnic.

It would be nice to have a wedding here like the one in Ghana.
