[HP Fudai] Knot of Life and Death

Chapter 19 The Greatest Wizard

The blood of incest, the blood of incest, Tom Riddle chewed these words, and felt a faint pain in his stomach. He tried his best to restrain the discomfort, but his mind seemed to be hit by something, white light, lightning , it was lightning, like lightning hitting the brain, and then a woman's cry...

Another howling and crying, and this again.

Like a nightmare, Tom Riddle saw a girl huddled in a corner of a messy room, wearing a tattered skirt, her head was covered in blood, her eyes were wide open, trembling, and silent.The moment the lightning flashed, it illuminated her blue eyes.

A drunken man was undoing his trouser belt, stroking another bruised adult woman, who was placed on an old chair by him.

"Merope is still there, Merope, let Merope go!"

"Never mind the little Squib, but it's good to show her how she was made. She will learn this sooner or later, right." The man grabbed the woman's hair, his right hand was a knife, and his left Holding the skirt, holding the knife in his right hand, he gently slapped the woman's face.

"Marvolo, please, get Merope out of here, whatever you do, get her out of here...I curse you"

"Curse me? You curse me? You're my wife and you should fucking do your job, fucker, that's what you begged me to do, what do you think I'd do to a little girl like that?" Marvolo laughed and walked to Merope in the corner, picked her up effortlessly, and then threw her to the ground beside the woman.

"Tell her to see her mother's beauty."

The little girl's body shrank from the pain, but she didn't say anything, she just reached out and pinched her mother's skirt tightly.

"Look, that's why I call this girl a Squib, your scum--" said the man, kicking the girl's hand away from the girl who was holding onto the skirt, and pulling the skirt off--"Let her go, Let her go!" The angry woman struggled, and Marvolo's eyes were already filled with cock, he threw aside the knife that got in the way, and pressed the woman down, every time she struggled, she was met with heavy blows punch.

The woman remained silent, not even making a sound.

"Listen to me, sister, we already have a daughter, and we still need a... son... the son of the Gunter family..." Marvolo was muttering wildly, and Merope stared at his mother, who was Weeping, also silent.

Another flash of lightning flashed, illuminating the dead snake nailed into an S shape outside the window. This is the family crest of the Gaunt family, symbolizing the honor and inheritance of the ancient pure blood for hundreds of years.

Tom Riddle stood there, finally realizing where he was.

These are Merope's memories—parts of her memories, this ugly childhood, and all the memories of being beaten, all appeared in Riddle's mind.And the crushed woman suddenly turned into Merope, and the crazy man on top of her turned into—no!

Riddle leaned against the wall to prevent himself from fainting from his panting, as if some needle had been inserted into his body to drain his strength.

This is the secret of keeping the pure blood of the Gaunt family, the only noble, ancient, mysterious, pure blood family secret of the Slytherin blood after hundreds of years - incest.

All sons and daughters are sacrifices, sacrifices to that which runs in those veins.They are all family sacrifices, just for that pure blood tradition.

Merope was, Merope's mother was, Mofingund was, and so was he.

The birth of Tom Riddle announced that the last pure blood generation of the Gaunt family ended in Merope's generation, and this was all done by that cowardly girl called a Squib!She ended the family with her bravery!

"But you lost me in the end."

Riddle muttered to himself.

In an instant, he returned to that dilapidated house. Behind him, across the wall, was Merope who was crying.

I already know the ending of this story, you abandoned me, didn't you.

You have lost this disgraced child, half-wizard and human, you have lost him.

Tom Riddle felt that his mind was very chaotic.

He has also thought about where he came from and where he is going, but the results are very certain, as if someone has been chasing him with a knife, he has been walking on the narrow road of life, and there is no room for choice.He couldn't choose whether he was an abandoned orphan, he couldn't choose whether he was a wizard, he couldn't choose whether he went to college or not, he couldn't choose who his parents were, all of which came when he was too weak.

Everything is set.Like now, he's sitting here, in front of a transparent wall of no idea what he's doing, with his arms folded, behind him is a crying mother, her grief is so genuine, so pure - she looks real She loves the child in her womb so much, but Tom Riddle has already seen the ending of this scene in advance.

In the end, he was placed alone at the gate of the orphanage.

The orphanage can see the high walls, the tall spires, and the black birds and the always gray sky.

And fists and kicks, milk splashed on you, toilet cubicles crying alone, dead baby snakes, rabbits, willows.woman's eyes.

The sharp pain ran through Tom Riddle's brain again.

You ended up choosing the love of a Muggle father over me, so you put me at the gate of the orphanage, didn't you?But where are you now.Mom, where are you?

Tom Riddle turned his head and looked at Merope quietly, her head was buried in her arms, she was so focused on crying.

And the tears on the boy's face had already dried up, even though his face was still a little red.

Love is a lie, my mother.

You are very right, the so-called love is just deceiving yourself.

"Those loves and loves are all fake, but official positions and treasures are real. The Lin family have loved each other for a lifetime, and what happened to them?" Suddenly, Tom Riddle heard a voice say, "If you want to break down, it will still be the same. What's the use of leaving Miss Lin now for the meeting, the prosperity of several generations has all belonged to the Jia family. When Miss Lin gets married and the property is handed over, then there will be a show."

"The Lin family still has property?"

"Master Lin had it when he first went there, but now it's not allowed, and the mansion's books may have embezzled some of it. Now it seems that when we get married, the old ancestors may have to pay for the dowry."

"Sister, I don't like what I said. The old ancestor may not be in the house by then."

"Be careful with your mouth! If the master hears this, it will be easy to drag you to death."

The two girls were talking, when a boy in a jacket suddenly came over. He was round and round, with a beautiful crown on his head, "What are the two sisters talking about?"

"Second Master Bao!" The two girls hurriedly bowed in a half-squat. "I just passed by here, and I heard you mumbling about your ancestors, what happened to your ancestors?"

"Let's say, the ancestor is thinking of you." The one in the lotus skirt said quickly, "Miss Bao asked the second master to look at the flowers. Let's pass it on and take a break on the way. Please forgive me."

"What does it matter? Of course it's good if you are willing to rest, but it's just that I missed my affairs with Sister Bao. If she punishes you, I will be ungrateful!"

The young man in red flirted with the two girls with ease, pinched one of their cheeks, and walked down the path with them.

Tom Riddle seemed to have noticed something suddenly. Looking back, the little Daiyu came out from behind a magnolia tree, holding a delicate bamboo basket full of petals in his hand.

She seemed to be in her teens at this time, there was no one around her, and she was too small to be noticed by the few people just now.

Based on Riddle's understanding of Daiyu, it is normal for him to cry when he dropped the basket. He recognized the person just now as Baoyu, and Dai had mentioned a few words to him before. Call it out, and in a few years she'll fall in love with the guy and die on his wedding day.

Daiyu also said that she doesn't have many friends in the garden, especially if people don't like her. Baoyu should be her only friend.

Riddle's heart tightened, but Daiyu didn't cry, she didn't do anything, she just walked forward with a basket, she didn't look angry at all, Riddle followed her little back, but in her heart she felt that this scene was extraordinarily strange. of depression.

This is not Dai, Dai is not the kind of person who will suppress her temper, this is not Dai.

Why don't you say something, make a fuss and chastise the servants, say something, Di.

But Daiyu still walked forward silently, without saying anything, "Dai" Riddle finally called out again. "Dai!"

It was the first time he hated Dai's silence so much. He used to sit in the living room writing something while Dai read the novels he found for her. They could sit in silence for a whole day, but it was different from now, this oppressive silence Made Riddle feel like he was going crazy!

It's as if he has lived in this invisible garden for a long time and has never been able to go out. This garden is a huge silent labyrinth. Countless memories flooded his mind, gazebos, old trees, carved lampposts , rockery, one bend after another, one scene after another, but there is still no exit, no door!What does the outside world look like? Mountains and waters, real mountains and waters, are there other people besides these people? Is the world a lie? Is the world the size of this house? They screamed like this, screamed and screamed every day, and then there was the sound of fallen leaves falling to the ground, so loud that it sounded like a heavy object falling to the ground, and Riddle wanted to kill them all—all of them—

Riddle coughed, trying to free himself from the horrible thought, and at this moment he saw Lin Daiyu finally stop, walk into a gazebo, and sit on a stone bench.Tom Riddle heard her singing something, so he approached, knowing that these people couldn't see him, so he walked over and stood beside Dai, when Dai suddenly raised her head, Looking at him, he said something in his mouth.

Tom Riddle thought this scene was familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

Suddenly, he felt that something was wrong, Lin Daiyu's eyes did not pass through him!She is staring at him!

The little girl reached out her hand and touched him, so he also reached out and held Dai's hand. At that moment, green light suddenly pierced his chest, and countless blue lights were like glass. slices through his body

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Riddle snarled, everything in front of his eyes began to blur in the severe pain, and he finally remembered where he is now, he is, he is...

But he can't open his eyes, he can't open his eyes... He can feel his body, but he can't manipulate him at all, he can only feel pain, and, there is a softness in his body, he can even feel Hear Moffingand's murmur,

"how long will it take……"

He is bleeding in a damn secret room, what happened just now was all hallucinations, what the hell is going on!

He saw himself lying on a stone bridge, huge flowers bloomed from the scarlet blood flowing from his body, and countless blue lights emerged from the girl's body, flying towards his body as if being pulled by a strange force , if those lights were real, Daiyu's body might have been torn into pieces, but no, she struggled, her face was full of tears, her lips opened and closed like a dying fish—she could feel the same The pain... She was just trying her best to move to the opposite place from Riddle.

And every time the light got bigger, Daiyu's feeling seemed to become clearer, her eyes became darker and darker, and her blood color became less and less. She got up and fell to the ground again. "Riddle, Riddle." Daiyu squeezed his robe tightly in severe pain, curled up on the ground.

She still dared not shake his hand.Just as he asked a few years ago, pinching his robe was the only way she could feel at ease.

"Kill Tom Riddle!" The blue light suddenly flickered in Daiyu's eyes again, and the girl turned around again, hugging Tom Riddle again—"No!"

"Tom Riddle," Tom heard a voice say, and he looked up—damn the vision, he was drawn into the vision again, and the goddamn vision again!This time it was Merope, she was being talked about by some people, the painful memories of Merope and Lin Daiyu were constantly playing in front of Riddle's eyes, which made him almost want to die immediately, while he was wailing crazily Crying and crying, one side is the despair that can't see the bottom, as if being put into the fire to be roasted at the same time, and then thrown into the deep sea, looking at the boundless blue, gradually suffocating.

How could anyone endure such pain?

"What a painful experience." Riddle suddenly heard a voice say.

Parseltongue.

The sound was not coming from nearby, as if someone was talking inside his head.

"Who are you, who the fuck are you?" Riddle became furious and yelled into the air, everything around him began to shatter, like porcelain bottles being shattered, and fell to the ground.

Under those colorful fragments, there was a vast expanse of white, and the edge could not be seen clearly. Everything turned into a piece of pure white, extending towards the distance. Riddle saw an old man sitting on a giant snake. His gray beard fell almost to his knees, maybe even longer, and his dry skin under the cloak was like a piece of dead wood.

"My dear Riddle, my child, do you feel pain... unbearable pain, they take hold of you."

Riddle looked up at him, suddenly felt so small, this person looked so familiar, but Riddle really couldn't remember when he had seen him.

"You are going to die, my child." The old man said, his voice was ancient and vicissitudes, like the croon of some ancient monster.

"Tell me who you are." Tom Riddle gasped.

"Merlin—you often call him the greatest wizard..." the old man said slowly, Tom Riddle was startled, and the giant snake under the old man moved, and pointed its huge head towards Tom Riddle. As it was sent over, Riddle subconsciously wanted to hide back, but he restrained himself after all.

He has nowhere to hide.

"And you often forget that the great Merlin was born in the house built by Slytherin..." the old man continued, the giant snake lowered its head, and he was getting closer and closer to Tom Riddle. Only a few feet away.

"So, tell me, who is the greatest wizard in the world?" The old man said with a smile, Tom Riddle looked up in shock, and he saw a darkness in the hood, as if connected to the void, and a pair of golden eyes and The shuttle-like pupils suddenly lit up!Like two xenon lamps!
