Chapter 7
The last stop of the day – the Wand Shop.
It's a small, dilapidated shop, and the gold-lettered sign on the door has peeled off and reads:
Ollivander: A well-made wand since 382 BC.
In the dusty window, a wand sits alone on a faded purple cushion.
It's amazing, it's actually a professional "intellectual retardation" for more than 2,000 years!
The hall was small, with nothing but a bench.
Thousands of long, narrow boxes with wands almost reached the ceiling.
"Is anyone here?".
"Good afternoon. An old voice rang out, and Ollivander stepped out of it.
"Hello sir, I want to buy ......," said Pyne, putting down the book in his hand.
"Wands, oh of course, Hogwarts freshmen. "
"Yes sir. "
"By the way, what's your name. "
Ollivander probably saw the confusion in Pyne's eyes and explained
"Wizards who buy wands from me need to be kept on file by the Ministry of Magic. "
"Pine Wilson. Pine introduced himself.
At this time, Ollivander noticed Cedric beside Pyne again, and wondered
"You, you must have been Mr. Diegory who came to my shop last year, right?"
Cedric blushed and said, "Yes, Mr. Ollivander, I came with a friend this time. "
Ollivander nodded when he heard this
"I remember your wand, twelve and a quarter of an inch, skullwood, and the core of the wand was a male unicorn hair, I remember right?"
Everyone was stunned by Ollivanders' hand.
He didn't expect that he remembered everything that had passed so long.
At this time, Ollivander looked at the shocked expressions of everyone, quite complacent, and smiled slightly:
"I remember every wand sold here. "
But Pyne, who inherited Slecklin's natural gift of occlusion.
also inherited the terrifying spiritual power of the other party.
Although it has not yet had time to develop, the insight is already very sharp.
Noticing that the ring on Ollivander's hand flickered slightly as he spoke.
This is supposed to be some kind of magical memory power-up.
But it didn't break it, after all, it's all about eating with a mouth, and it's not easy to set up a persona.
"Mr. Wilson. Ollivander pulled a tape measure out of his pocket, "Which arm do you use?"
"I'm used to using my right hand. Pyne lifted his arm.
Ollivander began to measure Pine, first from his shoulders to his fingertips and then from his wrists to his elbows.
The complicated measurement process leads both Jason and Linda to suspect that Ollivander is not selling wands, but clothes.
"Every wand I make is unique, and wizards can always pick the perfect fit. "
Ollivander said to himself as he measured.
But Pyne was already a little suspicious of life, and the tape measure was automatically measuring the distance between his nostrils.
Pyne reached out and pulled the ruler away and walked to the counter.
Ollivander had already taken a wand from the shelf and introduced:
"Made of cypress wood and phoenix feathers, eleven and three-quarters inches, very special. "
"The cypress wand is associated with courage. The soulmate of the cypress wand is a courageous, unwavering, self-sacrificing person who is not afraid of the darkness of his own nature and that of others."
Pyne reached out to take it, and could feel the call and resonance of his wand.
With a wave of his hand, a red spark glows from the tip of the wand, which blooms like fireworks in the store
Ollivander exclaimed, "I didn't expect it to be so suitable the first time!".
But Pyne felt that it was still worse and motioned for him to change one.
Ollivander hesitated and pulled out another box.
"Try this one, made of aspen wood and unicorn hair. Ten and a half inches long. Extraordinary combination, nice bouncy. "
"I've always said, 'If you're looking for honesty and integrity, start with the owner of the Poplar Wand. 'It's a credible, inclusive, powerful and consistent wand that is most compatible with wizards and wizards with a clear sense of morality ......
."
Before he could finish.
I saw Pyne take it and wave it again, and the tip of the wand emitted yellow sparks this time.
Ollivanders was stunned, "How can this wand work so well with you?"
He'd been working on a wand for decades and hadn't encountered such a strange situation.
"I didn't wake up today. Ollivander said to himself, "Try this ...... again
."
Pine tried two more, and all the wands fit perfectly into his hand.
As a master wandmaker, no one knows the secrets of a wand better than Ollivander.
The first cypress wand liked to have brave and fearless people.
The second poplar wand likes people who are upright and tolerant.
The third ebony wand loves mavericks.
The fourth Blackthorn Plum wand likes to wander away from dangerous people.
He deliberately chose these four kinds of wood, which correspond to the characteristics of the four Hogwood houses.
Some traits are even contradictory and incompatible.
But today, I never expected to meet a person who meets all the traits.
After a moment of silence, Ollivander walked to the deepest part of the shelf and retrieved a dusty box.
"Eleven and a quarter of an inch, this wand was made twenty years ago, and the core of the wand is special. "
"The wand is a very rare elderberry, a wand that is more difficult to control than any wand made of any material, and although it has a great ability to cast magic, it is unwilling to cooperate with wizards who are not as good as it. "
"No matter how long a wizard has owned an elderberry wand, that wizard must be a world witness, and only a particularly unusual person can be perfectly matched with an elderberry wand, and once this rare situation occurs, the wizard is destined for a magnificent fate. "
Speaking of this, Ollivander stared into Pyne's eyes and said thoughtfully
"The core of the wand is even more special, 60 years ago, a pair of unicorns from the mysterious East were born, when the first Dark Lord was in rebellion and wanted to seek the position of president of the International League of Magic. "
"The unicorn is a rui beast of the east, which can distinguish between good and evil, and the president of the International Magical Federation at that time relied on the election of the unicorn to thwart the conspiracy of the first generation of the Dark Lord. "
"It was also in that year that my father got three hairs of a unicorn, and he tried twice and failed, and the last one came to me, and I had the whim to use a staff with the opposite characteristics of elderwood, and I unexpectedly succeeded. "
"But this wand has been made for more than 20 years, and no one has been recognized. "
"Mr. Wilson, maybe you can give it a try. "
Pyne takes the unicorn wand, which is similar to the one in the original book Elder Wand.
Suddenly, I felt a resonance from my soul.
With a flick, his wand glowed with a golden yellow circle.
An adult unicorn stepped out of the aperture and looked at him for a long time.
When Pyne came back to his senses, he found that several people around him didn't seem to notice the scene.
Ollivander was even surprised: "The golden spark, the light is so shining, it is unusual. "
"Could this be what makes unicorn hair so special as a rod core?"
Seeing this, Pine said with a look of surprise
"Mr. Ollivander, I think that's it. "
Ollivander was also relieved that the wand had finally found its owner.
But one thing is clear.
That's where Pine Wilson's future accomplishments are definitely not to be underestimated.
This is his confidence in the bones, and even more so in the mysterious unicorn hair.
Reluctantly, he put the wand in the box, handed it to Pyne and nodded
"Cherish it, 10 Galleons in total, thank you for your patronage. "
