Chapter 4089 Chapter 4091 [Escape from the Earth]
After Xiang Nan finished his work, he was about to slip away when he heard footsteps outside the door.
When he used his clairvoyant eyes, he saw Filch coming back carrying a mop and a bucket.
Xiang Nan was surprised when he saw this.
He had expected Filch to clean up for an hour, which would be plenty of time for him.
I didn't expect that he would come back so soon.
Xiang Nan had no time to leave, so he could only use the "Escape Technique", and saw his body slowly sinking to the ground, as if the ground under his feet had turned into thick mud.
"Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up..." Xiang Nan was anxious.
It's just that "Escape from the Earth Technique" is one of the most profound Taoist techniques among the earth elements. His mastery is not very sophisticated, so he can only sink slowly.
At this moment, a click was heard outside the door, and it was Filch who was using the key to unlock the door. At this time, Xiang Nan had just sunk halfway down, and half of his body was still exposed.
"Oops~" Xiang Nan cursed secretly when he saw this, and could only cast another "Disguise Curse" on himself.
In the wizarding world of "Harry Potter", except for the invisibility cloak passed down by the Potter family, which can make people truly invisible, no other spells or invisibility cloaks can make people truly invisible.
Because in the magical world, there is no real "Invisibility Curse", only the "Illusion Curse", which can make people integrate with the environment and not be easily discovered.
Travel cloaks made of the fur of invisible beasts can also make people invisible, but the magic effect will gradually dissipate over time, and the invisibility effect will be greatly reduced.
It is precisely for this reason that the Invisibility Cloak held by Harry Potter is qualified to be called the "Deathly Hallows".
…
As soon as the Illusion Body Curse was cast, there was a clang and the door was pushed open.
Filch came in carrying a mop and bucket.
"These boys are so hateful... I never thought... how much trouble they would cause me." He complained as he entered the door, "It's ink, fireworks, and mud... these guys are so bad... I Try to punish them, don't you think so, Mrs. Lorris..."
Xiang Nan held his breath and remained motionless, trying to avoid being discovered by Filch.
Because once he finds out, he will definitely inform the school. At that time, the consequences of "stealing" alone will be disastrous.
But Filch really didn't notice Xiang Nan. He put down the mop and bucket, then picked up a quill and parchment and began to record, "I must find out who spilled the ink. I must Punish him well~"
Xiang Nan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
"Meow, meow, meow~" At this moment, Mrs. Lorris seemed to notice it and looked towards Xiang Nan.
"Fuck~" Xiang Nan was shocked when he saw it.
I know that this cat is quite smart. Whenever a student breaks the school rules, it will immediately notice it. Moreover, it seems to have a spiritual connection with Filch. Whenever it sees a student committing a foul, it will immediately call Filch to punish the student.
Therefore, seeing Mrs. Lorris eyeing him, Xiang Nan couldn't help but feel excited and secretly prayed, "Don't get involved, don't find me..."
Ren Shi Xiang Nan has profound cultivation and excellent static skills, and he almost broke through the defense at this time, "This **** cat is really smart, get away, get away, don't get me~"
Mrs. Lorris did not hear Xiang Nan's thoughts, but still slowly leaned towards him, and sure enough, she hit Xiang Nan on the head. "Meow~meow~meow~" Mrs. Lorris was also startled, and then shouted at Filch.
"What's wrong, dear, did you find anything?" Filch raised his head in confusion and asked.
Mrs. Lorris immediately raised a cat's paw and pointed it at Xiang Nan.
Upon seeing this, Filch quickly stood up and touched Xiang Nan's direction. Fortunately, at this moment, Xiang Nan just sank into the ground.
"There's nothing, dear, did you see it wrong?" Filch scratched a few times, but couldn't catch anything. He couldn't help but look at Mrs. Lorris in confusion and said.
Mrs. Lorris also caught Xiang Nan a few times, but she couldn't catch Xiang Nan, and she couldn't help showing a surprised expression.
"Okay, I understand. There are so many things happening in the school every day, and so many brats violating school rules. It's really tiring to rely on the two of us to maintain order." Seeing this, Filch picked it up and said, " It’s okay, I’ll feed you some more dried fish at night~”
"Meow~" Mrs. Lorris shouted happily.
"I know you like fish, don't you?" Filch hugged her affectionately and said.
Xiang Nan looked down and felt sick.
After he escaped underground, it was like being stuck in a quagmire. Although he could move, it took a lot of effort and was far less relaxed than being in the air.
Moreover, he could vaguely see things within three feet (about one meter) of his surroundings, but anything further away was pitch black.
This is mainly because his "Escape Technique" cultivation level is not up to par. According to "The True Interpretation of Five Elements Taoism", "Escape Technique" has been cultivated to a high level, and he can travel underground, travel freely, and move at will...
Xiang Nan is obviously still a long way from this realm.
However, he had just used the "Escape Technique", so it was normal for him to be unskilled. In the future, if you practice slowly, you will naturally become proficient. Just like Harry Potter practicing the summoning spell, he could only summon flies at first, but later even Hagrid could be pulled by him.
Xiang Nan immediately swam out of Filch's office like he was swimming.
Although it was only a few steps, it took him a lot of effort. Therefore, not long after leaving his office, Xiang Nan slowly climbed up, feeling exhausted and exhausted.
However, this experience also benefited him a lot.
Although he had learned the "earth escape technique" before, he had never used it much.
Because at that time, he was obsessed with "sword-driving skills". After all, flying with a sword is what everyone who dreams of being a fairy longs for. The "Escape Technique" is to burrow into the ground, like a mouse, which is not as beautiful as the "Sword Control Technique".
But now that he has come to Hogwarts, it is no longer difficult for him to fly. Flying lessons are held once a week, and broomsticks can be ridden as much as you like.
Nowadays even the dumbest children can fly around on broomsticks. In comparison, "Escape from the Earth" is more cost-effective.
Because it allows Xiang Nan to freely access many places, such as the restricted book area of the library, professors' offices, common rooms of various colleges, and even the principal's office.
Of course, Xiang Nan doesn't dare to guarantee whether he can go in and out and whether he will encounter any obstacles.
After all, Hogwarts was founded by four wizards. Not only were a large number of spells placed outside the castle, they hid the entire castle, making Muggles think it was a ruin.
Moreover, there are a lot of protective magics installed in the castle. For example, you cannot apparate in the castle, and you cannot use Floo powder or door keys; the Room of Requirement can change in many ways to meet the needs of users; the principal's office must have the correct password to enter...
So Xiang Nan still has to try slowly.
