Ye Feng originally wanted to find the Geminis, but when he thought about their personalities, he suddenly hesitated. He felt that if he gave his talismans to these two, they would probably be used up by the next day and there would be no chance to sell them to anyone else.
Percy Weasley was older, more mature, and more thoughtful than Ron and the others. So after hearing Ye Feng's suggestion, he looked at Ye Feng with a complicated expression, but in the end, he agreed.
"Thank you, Weasley will never forget your friendship."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng knew that Percy had seen through his other intentions, but he didn't care too much, since it was just something he did on a whim. However, what happened next was a bit unexpected for Ye Feng, because the style of Hogwarts completely went astray.
No, it's not just crooked, the art style has completely changed.
There's a saying called the "celebrity effect," and the Weasley family is quite famous at Hogwarts, or even in the entire wizarding world. So when Percy Weasley, the overly "honest" outlier in the Weasley family, sold Ye Feng's talismans, it immediately caused a frenzy. Ye Feng had to "work overtime" for three days straight to barely keep up with the supply.
The results of the large-scale supply of talismans were quickly apparent.
Now, when Ye Feng walks on the school road, he can suddenly see someone's figure flash and disappear. However, he can also occasionally hear cries of pain coming from some unknown corner. It is highly likely that the person using the Swiftness Talisman has bumped into something while turning a corner because they are not skilled at it.
Of course, thanks to his 'good classmate' Ye Feng, Ye Feng was called to the office three times in the past two days. The reason was that Filch was being teased by Gryffindor students who used invisibility talismans until dawn every night. And because these people not only bought invisibility talismans but also wall-penetrating talismans, Filch couldn't catch them at all.
However, the worst off aren't Filch, but rather the ghosts in the academy. They're so terrified by the ghosts who use invisibility talismans that they're afraid to come out at night, and they don't even dare to go to dark places during the day.
Snape was actually quite angry because in the past two days, some students had been sticking charms on themselves during Potions class, which made it easier for the bad students who couldn't understand him to understand what he was saying. But that wasn't what angered him.
What really angered him was that these students could answer any question in class after putting up the talismans, but as soon as get out of class ended and they took the talismans off, they would start to stumble and only remember about a third of what they remembered.
When the Quidditch match between Ravenclaw and Slytherin began two days later, Ye Feng was dumbfounded. Have you ever seen a group of people who put Vajra Charms on themselves and Swiftness Charms on their brooms and charged around like missiles, completely ignoring the ball and only wanting to knock their opponents off the field?
Chapter 46 Dumbledore, I never thought you were this kind of person.
Suddenly, like a night of spring breeze, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloomed.
Ye Feng now has a similar feeling. He never expected that the style of Hogwarts would change so much in just two or three days. He also never expected that his talismans would be so thoroughly integrated into every aspect of Hogwarts in just a few days. People are even too lazy to clean their rooms, because they only need to stick on a dust-repelling talisman to ensure that the room is spotless.
If Ye Feng hadn't known clearly that this was Hogwarts, he would have thought he had stumbled into a sect in the cultivation world that specialized in talismans.
Because talismans are so useful and Ye Feng is quite honest, he basically only charges the cost price plus a small labor fee. The price of a single talisman is so cheap that it only costs one shico, which is only slightly more expensive than a bag of snacks. Therefore, many people like to use them for everything and don't even want to learn magic anymore.
Seeing this situation, Ye Feng knew he was in trouble, so he rushed to make a large batch of talismans overnight and then decisively told Percy Weasley to make one last profit before stopping. However, it was still a bit too late; Percy Weasley's batch of talismans was caught by Dumbledore after only half of them were sold.
When Ye Feng heard the news, he wasn't flustered at all, because it was always Percy Weasley who sold the items. He was just a ruthless talisman-drawing machine. What did it have to do with him if he caused trouble at the school?
As it turned out, Ye Feng was a bit too naive, or perhaps Dumbledore knew him too well. Almost the instant he saw the billions of talismans in Percy Weasley's inventory, he instinctively used Teleportation to arrive at Ye Feng's dormitory.
"Ye Feng, do you want to destroy Hogwarts, and ruin the future of the wizarding world?"
Ye Feng: [?ヘ??]
Upon hearing Dumbledore's words, Ye Feng's mind was instantly filled with question marks, because Dumbledore's words were a bit inexplicable. Although he had indeed caused Dumbledore a little trouble, it was not enough to destroy Hogwarts, was it?
Seeing the doubt in Ye Feng's eyes, Dumbledore paused for a moment, grabbed him, and used Apparition to arrive in front of Percy Weasley's 'warehouse' where he stored talismans. When Ye Feng saw the several large cabinets of talismans neatly stacked and categorized, he felt a little embarrassed.
"Did I draw so many talismans? Headmaster Dumbledore, are you sure I drew all of these? I don't remember drawing many."
Hearing Ye Feng's seemingly honest words, Dumbledore sighed helplessly and said, "In Hogwarts, who else besides you knows how to draw these things? And Mr. Ye Feng, you seriously underestimate your abilities."
"These, did I really draw them all?" Although Dumbledore's words made a lot of sense, Ye Feng was still a little hesitant to believe it, so he looked at Percy Weasley next to him.
"Yes, you drew all of these. I go to your dorm every day at midnight and early morning to move the drawn talismans. Otherwise, if I wait until the next morning, your dorm will be full of drawn talismans."
Ye Feng: Σ(?д?lll)
"Is...is that so? No wonder I always felt that I wasn't drawing enough talismans every day, and the money you gave me was a bit..." Ye Feng stopped abruptly before he could finish speaking, but it was still too late.
"You admit it? That's good. Now I'm going to tell you the serious harm that what you've done has caused to the school."
"Leaving aside the pranks you played on Mr. Filch with talismans, those were just pranks within acceptable limits. What really affected the school and even the entire magical world was that your talismans were too useful and too cheap."
“Mr. Ye Feng, do you know that because your talismans are too effective and too cheap, many young wizards are starting to instinctively think about which talisman to use to solve a problem? This is a very bad sign, because... Hogwarts is a magic school!”
"If one day a wizard encounters a problem and the first thing he thinks of is not to solve it with his own power, but to use external objects, namely your talismans, it will be a terrible disaster, because among all wizards... only you know how to draw talismans."
Hearing Dumbledore's words, Ye Feng also realized that it wasn't that everyone wanted to use talismans, but rather that these people only knew how to use them and not how to draw them.
In other words, if Ye Feng decides to stop selling talismans one day, the wizards who have become heavily reliant on them will be completely helpless, because they rely on talismans for everything and have probably forgotten most of their magic, or may not have even learned it at all.
If this were to actually happen, and the spells of wizards who haven't learned or have forgotten them suddenly disappeared when they encounter trouble, it would be a terrifying disaster, especially when they are in danger.
Realizing this, Ye Feng fell silent. Seeing that Ye Feng had realized the seriousness of the problem, Dumbledore took out his wand and pointed it at the talismans in the cabinets. Instantly, the talismans flew into the pocket inside Dumbledore's robe, which had been enchanted with the Infinite Extension Charm.
"Phew~ This kid seems to have been persuaded by me. Quickly put these talismans away. They're all Galleons, and many of them might play a very important role in the future."
"However, we really can't let this kid continue selling talismans in large quantities, otherwise these young wizards will really become dependent on talismans and it will affect their studies."
Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
Ye Feng's heart bled as he watched those talismans fly into Dumbledore's pocket. Those were the talismans he had painstakingly drawn, one by one, while he stayed up all night to draw them (referring to leaving a wisp of his divine thought to control the talisman brush to draw them while he fell asleep)! They were all his blood and sweat!
Dumbledore: Hmm? [?_??]
Ye Feng: o(?^`)o Hmph!
"It's just a few talismans, I drew them all in one night! I don't care at all!!!"
o(╥﹏╥)o Waaaaah~ I never thought Dumbledore was this kind of person! You actually embezzled my 'blood and sweat'! The materials I 'laboriously' collected!
Percy Weasley: _| ̄|○
"Gone, all gone. My path to becoming a prefect, my... business empire, all gone..."
Ye Feng: ...
Dumbledore: ...
Percy Weasley's words left Ye Feng and Dumbledore speechless. However, everyone has their own pursuits, so they didn't say anything. Thanks to Dumbledore's timely intervention, the style of Hogwarts was finally restored. However, no matter how timely the correction was, there would still be some traces left.
For example, some academically challenged students with the surname Weasley are now spending all their time in the library studying, covered in charms, because a terrifying monster called the final exams is slowly approaching. Of course, whether they pass or not is entirely up to fate, because Dumbledore has issued new school rules restricting students' use of charms.
That day, after Dumbledore took away Ye Feng's stock of talismans, he announced a new school rule. The rule clearly stipulated that no one was allowed to sell or give away more than three talismans of the same type at once on campus, and each person could only give away or sell one talisman to the same person once a month.
Although the school rules still had loopholes, they did limit the circulation of talismans on campus. After the use of talismans was restricted, Harry and his friends turned their attention back to something else, such as... the Chamber of Secrets under Cerberus, or... the Philosopher's Stone.
Chapter 47 Ye Feng: Harem? Just kidding!
Ye Feng knew about the Philosopher's Stone, and he also knew how to obtain it, but he had no interest in it, because neither its ability to turn other substances into pure gold nor its ability to refine elixirs of immortality were of any use to him.
Gold represents money, and Ye Feng can easily cause a frenzy in the magical world by simply throwing away any items he gets from signing in with the system. Muggle coins are even simpler; he can just exchange them for money and invest them.
Although he didn't know if the Twin Horses still existed in this world, or if they would create those huge business empires, he knew their history of success, or rather, the foundation of their rise to power.
Knowing what will rise to prominence in the future and having money in hand, he only needs to invest some money in advance and he will never have to worry about money for the rest of his life. Therefore, money really has no appeal to Ye Feng.
The immense wealth represented by the magic stone held no appeal for Ye Feng, and the ability to live forever held even less appeal, because he was a cultivator of immortality, and cultivation of immortality…
As we all know, cultivating immortality is a process of seeking immortality and enlightenment, a process of constantly evolving and becoming stronger in terms of life level. However, the path is long and arduous, requiring a long period of time. To gain something, one must inevitably spend a lot of time. Therefore, as long as a cultivator embarks on the path of cultivation, the lifespan they gain is at least three hundred years.
In other words, barring any unforeseen circumstances, with Ye Feng's current cultivation level, as long as he doesn't court death, he can live until the day he no longer wants to live, and he doesn't need any elixir of immortality at all.
Moreover, cultivators also know how to refine pills, and many pills have the effect of increasing lifespan. Some immortal pills can not only make you immortal and live as long as the heavens, but also give you the powerful ability to overturn rivers and seas and capture stars and chase the moon.
So although Ye Feng knew where the Philosopher's Stone was and how to get it, he didn't tell Hermione and the others about it. Instead, he told them to go find it directly.
Of course, he would also help with the search, because this matter involved Hagrid, so if they wanted to know more information, they had to go to Hagrid, and Ye Feng had been eyeing Hagrid's room full of materials for a long time.
Of course, because he had given him a gift before, and because he had a good relationship with Harry, Hagrid knew him, but that was all. If he wanted Hagrid to give him or trade so many materials with him, he would still have to go through Harry.
So, while Harry, wearing his invisibility cloak, went to the library's restricted section to look for books about the Philosopher's Stone, Ye Feng also went out for a rare nighttime stroll. However, unlike Harry, who had to carefully avoid Filch, Ye Feng didn't need to hide at all, because Mrs. Lorris was quite familiar with him.
Besides listening for noises and looking at lights, Filch's most important tactic for catching students who were out at night was to get Mrs. Lorris to help him. But Filch probably didn't know that Mrs. Lorris's favorite food was a small silver fish from the Black Lake, no bigger than a thumb, and that she could eat five of them at a time.
"Snort, snore, snore..."
Gently stroking Lady Loris, who was resting contentedly after eating and purring happily in his arms, Ye Feng strode towards the third floor, because he also wanted to see if the Mirror of Eris could truly see his deepest desires.
While Ye Feng was happily petting his cat and searching for the Mirror of Erised, Harry was out there running around, outsmarting Filch.
Because of the invisibility talisman provided by Ye Feng, there were many more students going out at night. It can be said that before the forbidden talisman was available, there would be two or three students going out at night almost every night. This provided Filch with a lot of experience on how to find students who went out at night invisibly.
Unfortunately, Harry was too confident in his invisibility cloak, so he bumped into Filch on the head as soon as he stepped outside. As a result, even though Mrs. Lorris quickly caught a whiff of his presence and ran over to Ye Feng, Harry was still being chased by Filch like a dog.
Harry should actually be thankful that the oil lamps at Hogwarts don't have voice control, otherwise, with light illuminating everything, there would be no way to escape.
"Speaking of which, should I suggest Dumbledore get one? It would save the school a lot of money on lamp oil and candles."
Other Gryffindor students: Listen to me, thank you…
In the end, Ye Feng gave up the idea. After all, he wasn't a devil, and he wanted to give the other Gryffindors a way out.
"Oh? This is the Mirror of Eris?" While pondering, a full-length mirror as tall as a person suddenly appeared in front of Ye Feng.
The mirror really did appear out of nowhere, and Ye Feng was certain that it hadn't been here before, because this was a corridor, and you could see it just by walking a little further in.
"Is this to see what I desire most in my heart? I happen to be curious too, so let's take a look."
Ye Feng knew that Dumbledore must have put it here, but he didn't care, since his purpose in coming out this time was to find the Mirror of Erised.
Holding Lady Loris, Ye Feng scratched his head in front of the empty Eris Mirror, then casually put Lady Loris on the ground and muttered, "Does it require some kind of awakening spell?"
"Ahem, magic mirror, magic mirror, tell me who is the most important person in the world... Oops, sorry, wrong channel, let's do it again."
As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, his image quietly appeared on the previously empty Eris Mirror. However, to Ye Feng's slight surprise, this was not his current self, but a version of himself that had grown up to be about fifteen or sixteen years old.
"What do you mean? My greatest desire is to grow up? Is this thing broken? Should we ask Dumbledore to fix it?"
As soon as Ye Feng murmured, the images in the Mirror of Eris quietly increased, this time showing a delicate little face that could be both charming and adorable.
"This girl looks so familiar, I feel like I've seen her somewhere before..."
!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ
Before Ye Feng could finish speaking, several girls quickly appeared in the Mirror of Eris and surrounded him. Although these girls were all unique and beautiful, they all had one thing in common: their gazes toward him were full of love.
"Tsk, is this what I desire deepest in my heart? But it seems so. Since I don't know if I can go back, I might as well enjoy life to the fullest. Besides, the road to immortality is long, and I need to find some companions. Finding some Dao partners is indeed a good choice."
Of course, that's what he thinks, but whether he'll actually do it is still unknown. After all, he's only eleven years old. Even in more open countries where early dating is common, he still has several years to go. Let's wait and see.
While Ye Feng was deep in thought, Dumbledore, who was hiding behind him, was filled with astonishment.
"I never imagined that this is what the little guy desires most..."
!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ
Before Dumbledore could finish his inner murmur, he was startled, for the image in the Mirror of Erised was rapidly changing.
