Chapter 862 Silent River

The Brenta River was once a raging river, but with the operation of hydraulic locks in the 15th century, it became quieter, and many noble villas were dotted on this fertile land.

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

During World War II, although Italy was not bombed, the Japanese still destroyed these ancient ruins. Almost all of Palladio's designs were listed as world cultural heritage. The Foscari they just visited

The villa is one of them. That villa was built after Francesco Foscari's death. Logically speaking, that house should have nothing to do with him.

But he is a member of the Foscari family, and not all of the ghosts wandering in Hogwarts are as related to the founders of the school as Helena is.

In 1945, the retreating German army completely blew up an old wooden bridge in Bassano. It was an all-wooden structure like the bridge from the castle to Hogsmeade. Fortunately, Palladio's design drawings are still there. In 1948, a corridor was built.

The bridge appeared again on the Bassano river, looking no different from the bridge nearly 400 years ago.

A haunted house has its own reasons for being haunted. Unlike the Screaming House, which was rumored to be haunted, a truly haunted house does not necessarily look dilapidated, but rather in good condition. The Republic of Venice annexed Padua around 1410.

By that time the first round of witch hunts had begun.

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

Both the Salem Witch Trials and the Bell Witch Cases took place in the suburbs. Compared with the city, the number of police officers 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 interrogation confessions, various wizards admitted their invisibility and shape-shifting abilities after being tortured, and in addition, they also mentioned "school" gatherings.

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

Sometimes we 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. I will pay you when they are finished." Discuss "tradition" and "innovation" with him and he will be completely satisfied.

I'm confused, why complicate a simple problem?

For people with great understanding, some people's behavior is confusing.

In the 15th century, there was a wealthy man named Julian in Venice. He made a living by selling counterfeit medicines. He claimed that if he took his medicine packets, he would live to be 100 years old. In fact, he himself died at the age of 82, but he bought his medicines.

There were still many people, and later he also sold "liar's silver" to treat 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, he also donated money to build a

Church, and also built a manor on the Brenta River. This time the agent took them to see this house.

The reason why it was sold was because both its owner and the people who lived here later had such a bad reputation.

Not far from this house is the famous Villa of Sighs. The lady of that villa was exiled to a country villa by her husband because she took too many cares. The bustling salon could not dilute her sadness.

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

After Severus cast the Imperius Curse on the managers, they finally understood why these "heritage of the Republic of Venice" were sold.

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 designed to defraud sheep who want to get a bargain but do not know the history of this land.

Which is better, a haunted ruin or a notorious den of thieves?

The things the Germans had done were probably scarier than that female ghost who always cried, not to mention that she always felt there was something weird about this land.

It was like in a horror movie, where a woman was hanging from a tree branch, and Pomona was standing under her body, feeling a chill from the top of her head to the soles of her feet.

People who commit suicide will go to hell. Sacrificing oneself is more terrifying than sacrificing others. Otherwise, women would be called crazy.

"Damn Muggles, you actually showed us a house with a ghost." She couldn't help but cursed, she was almost deceived!

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

"Are there no other better options?" she asked.

"What's a better option? Do you want to live in Titian's villa?"

She would not be so stupid. Titian's residence would only be used as a museum and would not be sold.

"I hate Italians," she said angrily, which was so treacherous.

The real good things are hidden away, and the "waste" is taken out to deceive people. This kind of "waste utilization" is so annoying.

"Which one do you want to see? Julian's Villa or the Villa of Sighs?"

The first thing she thought of was Moaning Myrtle. If the ghost of the Villa of Sighs was as annoying as Myrtle, maybe Draco would rather live in Julian the Liar's villa.

However, if Julian's villa had as many deaths as Malfoy Manor, he might rather have a female ghost as his neighbor.

People have died in the old house, but it also depends on the way the predecessor died. It is certainly not terrible to die on a soft bed surrounded by descendants. What is terrible is to die violently. It would be even more terrible if he was dismembered like Linda.

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

Why do you say that villa was also designed by Palladio.

Rich people have many houses, so they can "exile" their wives. Paris's mother was also "exiled" to the countryside by his father, while he and Mrs. Zabini were in social circles.

They were in love with each other, and they looked extremely loving. In the end, he died violently like Mrs. Zabini's previous husbands.

A total of 7 men died, and the men stayed away from the woman who was passionate about charity, looked charming, gentle and charming, 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 Madame de Pompadour, she is not very beautiful, at least not as beautiful as Mary, but she is the only public mistress of Louis XV, even though his illegitimate son has already

There are dozens of beautiful, young women who can give birth to children, but none of them can shake her status.

As a mistress of a noble family, you must first learn to read people, even house elves and people like Kreacher who will betray their master, let alone human servants.

Generally speaking, ambitious men will not become servants, but there are also people who, for various reasons, stay loyal to a certain family even if they have special skills.

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

A person with property.

It is precisely because of this story that when Harry gave Slytherin's locket to Kreacher and gave him his freedom, Pomona told him that he could continue to stay in the Black family.

Kreacher could choose to stay in the bustling Hogwarts kitchen, but he chose to stay alone in the old house and live alone.

He is a free house elf, although he is not freed by Hermione Granger's "vomiting".

The top student from a Muggle school was brainwashed by Western-style liberal democracy, but she didn't feel it herself. Instead, she brought this mentality to the wizarding world and instilled it in the house elves.

Not everyone is greedy for a wealthy life. There are also people who simply want to have enough food and live an ordinary and peaceful life. He will come forward to stop everyone from harming a "witch" when the public is angry. This is better than some people who are affected by it.

People who want education but feel that they are fulfilling justice and fabricate lies to convict "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 foraging in the water.

This environment is really suitable for a picnic.

It would be better if a wedding like the one in Ghana could be held here.
