Chapter 2 The balance of fate is turned!

Lin Xia once again came to the bathroom with a flush toilet, which was where Myrtle died.

On the side of the copper faucet of a pool, there is a small snake carved on it, which is the entrance to the secret room.

She didn't know Parseltongue, but that didn't stop her from seeing someone opening a secret room in the Fate Compass and imitating that sound.

Lin Xia didn't know what had happened to her soul after coming to this world. After all, this ghost body shared two souls, which was very inconvenient to explore.

But judging from the fact that her soul can suppress Myrtle's soul, her soul talent is very unusual, and she may have some ability that is different from ordinary people.

For example, Lin Xia didn't think she couldn't imitate Parseltongue. On the contrary, it should be quite easy.

"The ugly Myrtle, the annoying Myrtle, the Myrtle who just sits on the water tank and cries!"

The annoying Peeves discovered Lin Xia and came to pester him.

Another soul body in his mind started to scream again, and the feeling of wanting to break through the restraints reappeared, giving Lin Xia a little headache.

She said: "Peeves, besides playing tricks on people, what else can you do? If you hadn't been annoying Myrtle all the time, she wouldn't have lived in such pain."

Peeves chuckled: "Myrtle lost her temper, but she can't do anything to us. Pranks make people happy, and seeing Myrtle cry makes us happier!"

Lin Xia calmed down her restless mood and said in a bewitching tone: "I found a fun place. Do you want to bully the giant snake?"

Peeves looked at each other, and a high-pitched voice said: "Snake?"

"Yes, it is a very stupid big snake with poor eyesight. It will hover in place and let you bully it. As long as you don't look directly into its eyes, you can beat it for a long time."

"Stupid snake? A snake that lets itself be bullied?"

There were loud, harsh, popping sounds like deflating balloons, and Peeves' evil black eyes flashed and he chuckled.

"Sounds fun. Peeves has never seen a giant snake, and they decided to bully the giant snake!"

Lin Xia said: "I'll give you an hour to prepare what you need. Remember not to take moldy peanuts. This will not harm the snake. This is a friendly reminder from a friend."

"Oh, by the way, don't forget to bring a rooster, a rooster that crows and is full of life. Big snakes are most afraid of roosters."

Peeves made a face at her and left the bathroom quickly. Myrtle looked down on them. They were going to prepare a big thing.

Watching Peeves leave, Lin Xia floated quietly on the water tank. This is where Myrtle likes to stay when she is in a daze, which helps to ease her mood.

In the past three days, Peeves often pestered her, and Lin Xia also figured out their temperament: they like to play pranks, throw peanuts at people, put wastebaskets on people's heads, pull off blankets from people's feet, throw Chalk head...

They like the new and hate the old, and will change their goals as long as there is something they are more interested in.

What Lin Xia didn't understand was that Peeves was not a ghost, but a psychological spirit, but he could contact real objects.

What a magical world.

An hour later, Peeves caught three majestic roosters and stole them from some unlucky student's dormitory. He also brought many prank gadgets with him.

Under Lin Xia's reminder, they specially brought thick bricks, which were good things for a dozen people.

Lin Xia stared at the copper faucet engraved with a small snake, "Open it."

The sound that came out of her mouth was a strange hissing sound, like a snake crawling and talking.

Suddenly, the faucet flashed with a dazzling white light and spun rapidly, and the pool slowly began to move. Gradually, the pool disappeared, and a very thick water pipe appeared.

Peeves rushed in without hesitation, cheering and happy.

Lin Xia also floated in. This slide was very deep, and there were many branching pipes in it, but none of them were as thick as the pipe she was on. The slope was very steep all the way down.

After an unknown amount of time, the slide disappeared and they finally came to the end.

Peeves took out a matchbox and lit it.

There were dark, slimy walls in all directions, making it very dark and damp.

"It's so fun. This is the bottom of the Hogwarts lake. We are under the big black lake!" Peeves cheered.

Then, they saw the shed skin of the giant snake!

It was green and very bright, hollow inside, with snakeskin coiled around the ground, at least twenty feet long.

After walking a few steps forward, I saw a tall stone pillar with two intertwined snakes carved on it. There was a long and strange shadow on the bottom of the stone pillar.

After taking a few more steps, I saw clearly that the shadow was a sleeping big snake!

Not far away, the huge stone statue of Slytherin stared at them silently, as if it had been waiting for their arrival.

Lin Xia's heart skipped a beat. She had already seen it once in Zhiming Compass, but seeing it in reality gave her an even more shocking feeling.

Before she could react, Peeves had already rushed out, charged bravely to play a prank, picked up the brick in his hand, and threw it at the basilisk!

"Hey, giant stupid guy, come hit me!"

Lin Xia's eyelids twitched slightly, this wave of hatred was too much.

The basilisk awakened from its slumber and slowly coiled around the pillar, trying to get down.

But it was too big and too long, and its thick body seemed a bit clumsy.

The rooster on the ground seemed to feel great terror and began to crow uneasily.

"Hey——"

"Giggle——"

Lin Xia discovered that the huge green snake monster was actually trembling.

The creator is fair. The more powerful the creature, the more fatal flaws it has.

Who would have thought that the snake monster, which has lived for thousands of years, was only afraid of the rooster without any extraordinary abilities?

Lin Xia suddenly remembered the clip she saw in the fate compass. Before Myrtle died, the roosters in the academy had died one after another.

No wonder it dared to come out arrogantly without natural enemies to restrain it.

"Haha, stupid snake monster, stupid snake monster!" Peeves was no longer satisfied with smashing bricks. He approached the snake monster and threw some kind of sticky mucus.

It was the mucus of slugs, with a strange smell, purely for disgusting people.

Peeves threw stink bombs and dung bombs, and also sprinkled a large piece of bubble powder.

Bubble powder is a special magic powder. When used on people, they will be covered with boils and blisters.

When used on giant snakes, it cannot break the giant snake's scale defense.

But the biological dung bomb was not without effect. Lin Xia noticed that the giant snake opened its ferocious mouth, revealing two sharp fangs, and two thick fork-like tongues stretched out in an attempt to bite the mischievous Peeves.

But as soon as the tongue touched the smell particles outside, it immediately retracted.

In the closed space, the power of the biological dung bomb increased exponentially. The basilisk's thick tail hit the pillar, trying to shake the entangled Peeves down, but it refused to open its mouth.

The weak eyesight made the basilisk unable to detect that the Peeves did not approach the stone pillar at all, but just floated in the air.

Seeing that the basilisk was about to come down from the pillar, Lin Xia was not sure whether the ghost would disappear completely after seeing the basilisk, so he opened his mouth and said:

"Wrap around the pillar, don't move."

A strange hissing sound sounded, and Lin Xia ordered the basilisk in Parseltongue not to come down.

This sentence was not seen in the fate compass. After Lin Xia said the first sentence of Parseltongue, she found that she had learned the language of snakes without a teacher.

The basilisk froze and a hissing sound rang out, "You are... the descendant of Salazar?"

Lin Xia did not answer.

"Strange... Salazar... how can there be two descendants." The hissing strange language sounded again.

The rooster's fearful crowing and Peeves' excited screams rang in the secret room for a full three hours!

The basilisk was forced to do so and did not resist. It was tortured by the rooster's crowing and its breath gradually became weak.

Lin Xia felt that it was almost done and called on another soul in her body.

"The real murderer who caused your death is right in front of you. Do you want to take revenge in person, even if you will die because of it?"

"Myrtle, do you want to live as a ghost who is neither human nor ghost, indulge in the grief of death, and be tortured by Peeves day after day, or decide to go on a great adventure?"

She had seen many fragments in the fate compass, and her favorite was this sentence.

"Death is just another great adventure."

Myrtle screamed fiercely, and with a strong hatred, she broke away from her body and turned into a faint white light and rushed towards the basilisk.

At the moment when Peeves, Myrtle and the basilisk were entangled, Lin Xia quickly retreated and decisively activated the balance of fate!
