Chapter 86: Chamber Of Secrets
"Brother, what are you trying to do?" Silna was taken by Solim to the women's bathroom on the second floor, which is where the entrance of the secret room is hidden, "I seem to have heard of this place... ..." Sirna looked around, "They said that there are often strange noises in this bathroom, and many girls would not come here."
"Indeed, because this is the land of myrtle." Solim began to look at the faucets one by one, he wanted to find the one with the snake logo and the one that wouldn't come out when the faucet was turned on.
"The voice the students heard was Myrtle's cry, and she doesn't like to be in contact with strangers very much." Solim explained to Sirna casually.
"Myrtle? Why haven't I heard of this student's name?" Silna asked.
"Okay, I'll talk to you about this later. Come to me, Sirna..." Solim waved his hand, and he found a place, "Facing this faucet, say 'Open' in Parseltongue.
He glanced at his brother strangely, "What is this going to do?"
"Remember what I told you during the holidays?" Solim said, "There's something about that.
Frowning, Selna said: "You mean that very dangerous thing? So what are you trying to do now?"
"No, what I'm doing now is to make sure it's not dangerous. If it's really dangerous, do you think I'll bring you here?" Solim asked back.
After hearing Solim's words, Sirna was relieved, she knew that her brother would never harm her. Then, following Solim's guidance, he made a hissing sound at the faucet with the snake logo.
Solim noted the pronunciation aside. To be honest, this snake language is really not difficult to remember.
"There seems to be no response..." Before Sirna finished speaking, the washstand suddenly vibrated, and then the washstand began to move, revealing a large hole leading to the ground.
Solim stepped forward, looked at the dark entrance in front of him, and sniffed, the smell coming from below was not pleasant.
"Come on, hold on to me." After speaking, he took out his wand and put a head-soaking spell on Sirna and himself to block the unpleasant smell.
He shook his wand, and the tip of the wand shone brightly. Then Solim pulled Sirna and jumped in.
With the help of Solim's fluorescent flashes, when they slid down quickly, they saw various pipes extending in all directions here. Solim has never found these pipes behind the wall on the Marauder's Map. The Marauder's Map is obviously not a panacea. In the school There are some places in the map that cannot be explored by magic applied on the map.
After sliding for about five minutes, they finally reached the end.
The two—mainly Solim, who was in front, fell on a pile of bones, and Sirna threw herself on top of Solim.
"Are you all right?" Solim pulled Sirna up, and cast a cleansing spell on the two of them to remove the dirt on their bodies.
"I never thought that there would be such a place under the school..." Silna also took out her wand and cast a fluorescent flash.
Under the light of two fluorescent flashes, this place looks much taller.
Only then did Solim start to look around. Needless to say, the ground is almost full of biological remains, but most of them seem to be small animals.
"Come on, Sirna, follow me." Solim began to walk forward. The light from the wand elongates the shadows of the two people and reflects them on the wall, combining the environment and atmosphere here
It looks very weird.
"What are we doing here?" Sirna followed her brother closely, her eyes searching for possible dangers around her, and she even glanced back from time to time.
"Find a big guy."
The voices of Solim and Sirna echoed here, and the empty, quiet and oppressive environment here did not cause any troubles to Solim and Sirna. After all, compared with Selwyn Castle, this place is almost interesting, but the Selwyn Castle There are not so many bones on the ground.
Suddenly Silna grabbed Solim's robe tightly and said in a low voice, "What is that?"
"Don't be nervous," Solim reassured, sensing his sister's nervousness, "It's just a slough.
Not far away, in the radiance from the wand, a huge silhouette appeared, and it lay there without moving. When Solim and Sirna approached, they could really see this extremely huge snake slough with the help of the light from the magic wand.
Even though it was a shed slough, it still glowed bright green under the lighting of the wand. Solim looked at it and saw that the slough was at least 20 feet long, at least because the slough was crooked, not crooked. Straight, which makes Solim difficult to estimate.
"My God..." Selna exclaimed, "Is this what you said, the source of danger?"
"It shouldn't be after today." Solim was still thinking whether to put away this precious snake slough now, or wait until he was done with work.
"Forget it, let's move on."
Looking at her brother in surprise, Sirna thought that with her brother's temper, she would definitely deal with this snake slough first. Not even a bad wizard would underestimate the value of this slough, let alone Solim.
"Don't think about it," Solim said to Sirna without turning his head, "I will come to collect this thing when the time comes, but it's not the time yet."
Finally, in what looked like a vast hall, Solim saw the door to the secret room. The door is carved with two intertwined snake eyes set with a shining emerald of the giant sky.
Taking a deep breath, Solim began to recall Sirna's pronunciation at that time, and then, a hissing sound came out of his mouth. Hearing this, Sirna quickly shifted her gaze from the door to Solim, but then she figured out what was going on. The pronunciation of this sentence is not difficult. Judging by Solim's usual learning ability, he can learn it all at once. And remembering it doesn't seem like a difficult thing to do.
Two intertwined snakes separated. They were swimming on the door, and then, the door of the secret room finally opened.
Sirna leaned closer to Solim's side nervously, and asked nervously, "What's inside?"
"It's nothing, a basilisk. Come on." Solim passed through the gate first, and Sirna followed closely.
The room behind the door is quite huge, the top of the room is extremely high, Solim estimates it to be at least 70 feet, and the light in the room is very dim, so he can't see the specific situation on the top. The ground is made of stone, with towering stone pillars standing on both sides, with many stone-carved giant snakes wrapped around it, extending upwards, and finally disappearing into the darkness.
At the end of the stone floor was a huge face, old and bearded, touching the ground. Solim knew it was a Slytherin, but it was clearly a stone carving made by later generations. Slytherin himself was still very young when he left Hogwarts, and it certainly wasn't left by him, Solim was more likely to be made by Voldemort himself.
"…"You came. "
Hearing this voice, Sirna suddenly looked to the left. A figure exuding silver-white mist pierced through the wall.
"Of course, the agreed things must be completed." Solim turned his face and looked at the figure, "But I'm curious, was this statue made by Riddle at that time? As far as I know, when Slytherin left school, he still Under 40 years old, he can't look so old.
"It wasn't Riddle," Barrow floated over, "it was done for him by the dean's first class of students, and only the first class of Slytherins knew about the Basques. But Riddle later used magic to change It swells."
"I said (Nuo Zhao Hao), why does it look so strange. It turns out that these stories have happened." Solim said with satisfaction, this problem has troubled Solim a long time ago, and Solim is a little happy to learn the truth today.
"Come on, let me introduce you, this is my sister, Sirna." Then he said to Sirna: "Bloodman Barrow, the ghost of our college, you have seen it before, but he usually doesn't speak. "
"So, Baro, can we have a look at it?" Solim added, "But don't let it open its eyes, and, are you sure it won't attack us?"
"If you can, please use 'he' to call Basque, he is different from those beasts without intelligence." Baro glanced at Solim unhappy, and then floated to the front of the statue.
"Okay, I apologize," Solim said. Then he said to Silna: "Remember what Baro said.
There was a hissing sound from Barro's mouth, Solim couldn't understand it, but Selna understood it.
"Hey!" Selna grinned and said to Solim, "That's so silly."
But in the next scene, Sirna's mouth opened like a Slytherin statue. .
