Chapter 239 247 Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets

After that, she has been crying here and leaving water everywhere, instructing this bathroom to be abandoned. She will still be bullied by Peeves and the little wizards in Hogwarts.

Feeney sighed and looked at the sink in the center of the bathroom.

The pool looked very ordinary. After checking inside and out, Feeney finally found a small snake carved on a copper faucet.

Finny knew he had found the entrance to the secret room!

Feeney knew this very well, and the faucet never produced water as recorded in the original book.

Feeney looked at the little snake on the faucet and tried to speak in a snake accent.

Unlike Harry in the original work, Finny mastered the snake accent on his own and did not need to regard this little snake as a real snake to be able to speak the snake accent.

Then a strange hissing sound came from his mouth. He knew very well that it meant opening.

Suddenly, the faucet emits a dazzling white light and begins to spin rapidly.

Then the pool began to move, and slowly disappeared from Feeney's eyes, revealing a water pipe that was so thick that it could pass through a person. This is the real entrance to the secret room.

Taking a deep breath, I slid down the pipe, as if I was rushing into a dark, sticky, and endless slide.

At the same time, Feeney also noticed that there were many smaller pipes connected around this pipe than the one he was in at this time, branching out in all directions.

The pipeline he was in at this time was winding and turning, and it was always going downwards. Based on the current speed and the slope of the slide, Feeney could roughly judge that he was going there. By now he had reached the house elf graveyard below the kitchen and a lower place.

Just when he thought he would continue to slide downward, the pipe finally reached the end.

After walking out of the horizontal pipe, Feeney came to a very humid space with some water on the ground.

It can be seen that this is a dark stone tunnel, just like the secret rooms of several other founders, which are all made of stone as the main material.

The height here is barely enough for a person to stand, which makes Feeney feel very depressed. Coupled with the dirt on his body caused by sliding in the pipe before, Feeney, who has no mysophobia, feels very uncomfortable and wants to change his body. clothes, take a nice hot bath,

Feeney closed his eyes and carefully felt the changes in the surrounding environment.

"It seems like this is underground in the Black Lake."

Feeney said to himself, while lighting up the glove on his left hand and walking forward,

The tunnel was very dark, and even the magic on Feeney's gloves could only illuminate a small area in front of him, and his shadow was reflected on the wall by the light, as if he were a monster, making the atmosphere even more weird at this time. few.

Click,

Suddenly a sound came from Feeney's feet, which was extremely abrupt in this silent environment like a tomb. It was the skull of a mouse, and there were many skulls of small animals around it. The silence here was complete. It's not like a tomb, but it's just a tomb here, but these little animals are buried there.

Normally, Feeney would never care about the bones of these small animals that he would not pay attention to at all. However, in this scene, the surrounding bones appear to be very scary and dangerous.

At this moment, Feeney suddenly realized that his inner strength was still not strong enough. Even though he could keep his face calm and calm when killing those vampires, he still felt an emotion called fear at this time. .

After stopping and taking two deep breaths to calm his restless heart, Feeney continued to walk forward. When he turned a dark bend in the tunnel, he saw a scene that shocked him.

It was the outline of a coiled behemoth, lying motionless at the end of the tunnel,

Feeney slowed down and walked over on tiptoe. He saw that it was just a huge snake slough. It was green and very bright. Without overthinking, he could tell that it was a highly venomous snake.

This layer of skin that was removed was at least twenty feet long, which was enough to deduce how huge the basilisk was at this time.

However, compared with the dead bones everywhere before, this huge snake slough is not so scary now.

It is enough to see that sometimes, visual perception can affect people's emotions more than people's reason.

After walking past the snake slough, Feeney saw the solid stone wall. On the wall were carved two giant snakes intertwined with each other. Their eyes were inlaid with large sparkling emeralds.

When he saw this wall, Feeney suddenly thought of a saying he saw on the forum in his previous life,

This method of entering Slytherin's secret room was actually modified by the descendants of Slytherin. After all, Hogwarts must have repaired the sewers for thousands of years, so the situation here cannot be discovered. There is only one possibility, that It was this place that was built by a later person, and the original way to enter Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets was destroyed by him.

"Open!"

Feeney opened his mouth and let out a low, hoarse hiss. The stone wall changed the moment Snake Laoqiang appeared.

The giant snake statue on the wall began to move, separated from the entanglement, then slowly retreated to both sides, and finally disappeared.

The stone wall also split down the middle at this time, revealing the entrance to the back of the wall.

There is still a long, dimly lit space, but it is not a tunnel but a room.

There are many stone pillars engraved with entangled snakes standing around the room, supporting the ceiling of this space.

At the same time, long black shadows appeared in this green, mysterious, and strange room.

Feeney took out his wand and walked forward, taking every step he took very carefully, because he didn't know yet whether the basilisk was dormant or awake at this time.

If it's the former, everything is easy to say. If it's the latter, then even if Feeney thinks he's a snake, it's hard to control the basilisk.

When he walked to the last pair of stone pillars, he finally saw the end of the room. The statue as tall as the room was tightly attached to the dark wall behind it in the room.

The statue was so tall that Feeney had to raise his neck to see clearly the huge face carved on the statue.

It was an old face, like a monkey, with a long sparse beard, which almost reached the hem of the robe of the wizard statue. Two gray feet stood in this room, which were very smooth with water stains. on the ground,

Feeney raised his head and looked at the face of the Slytherin statue, opened his mouth and said loudly,

"Speak to me, Slytherin - the greatest of the Hogwarts Four."

Feeney didn't know if this spell was useful, at least he vaguely remembered that in his past life when watching the Harry Potter movies, this was the spell Riddle chanted when he summoned the basilisk in the Diary of the Mysterious Man.

As Feeney's voice sounded, Slytherin's huge statue face moved,

It began to slowly open up, getting bigger and bigger, and finally formed a huge black hole.

There seemed to be something moving inside the statue's mouth, sliding upwards from the depths of the statue.

Feeney hurriedly backed away to make room for the basilisk inside the statue, and at the same time continued to speak in the snake accent,

"Close your eyes, the treasure left by the great Slytherin!"

Feeney didn't know the name of the basilisk, so it was difficult to directly control the basilisk. He could only act under the name of Slytherin.

Then Feeney saw a huge object falling to the ground, causing the entire secret room to tremble.

It was an extremely huge snake, and it was unfolding its coiled body from the innermost part of Slytherin. It was the famous basilisk, the King of Snakes.

Perhaps it's because Snake Laoqiang has absolute control over the Basilisk.

Feeney discovered that the basilisk really had its eyes closed when it came out of the statue's mouth, and it was very honest after it came out.

This gave him the opportunity and leisure to carefully observe this creature that should have been extinct in the magical world long ago.

This huge basilisk is crystal green, glowing with the unique light of poisonous snakes, and its body is as thick as an oak tree trunk. At this time, it is resting its head on its already coiled body, quietly waiting for Feeney to take over. Come down with the order.

Of course, it would occasionally make a hissing sound or two, so Feeney, who has a snake accent, could naturally understand it, which meant that he was hungry.

He frowned at this. When Slytherin left the basilisk in Hogwarts, he would not have thought of leaving a way for the basilisk to find food. The bones in the previous tunnel also proved this.

However, at this time, the basilisk expressed that it was very hungry.

This gave him two guesses. One was that before it was transformed, there was a passage to the outside, most likely to the Forbidden Forest. There were no little wizards there, there would be no accidental injuries, and there were rich species. Enough for the basilisk to eat. It's just that after the renovation here, the passage to the outside was blocked.

The other is that this place can still lead to the outside, but Riddle's accidental death of Myrtle decades ago made him give the order to the basilisk to wait here.

No matter which one it is, the basilisk is hungry at this time, but fortunately, the binding force of Snake Laoqiang is still there, and the basilisk does not try to attack his actions or thoughts.

Thinking of this, Feeney said,

"Do as I say and I will take you to find food."

No matter what the reason is, Feeney has a way to take the basilisk out, and if Snakehead can really control the basilisk, then this basilisk is a very powerful trump card.

Hearing Feeney's voice and the familiar Snake accent, the Basilisk suddenly became excited. Of course, he still closed his eyes tightly according to Feeney's request and did not open his eyes to look at Feeney.

"May I have your name?"

Feeney asked again, speaking in snake language of course.

A hissing sound came from the basilisk's mouth,

"Basque,"

That was the name of the basilisk. After a simple exchange, Feeney learned some very interesting things.

First of all, Basque is the basilisk. He is very angry at the person who opened the secret room last time, the mysterious man Riddle. However, due to the contract in his blood, he must obey the snake's old tune. Of course , this prerequisite is to have the blood of Slytherin,

Yes, he can feel the blood of Slytherin. It is said that it is because Slytherin gave him part of his blood, which made his wisdom higher.

At the same time, Finney also knew what the so-called Slytherin heir meant. Those claims about purifying the wizard bloodline were nonsense. The reason why Slytherin left the basilisk was actually to protect Hogwarts.

Thinking about it, it can be understood. After all, when Slytherin left, the relationship between the magic world and Muggles was still very tense. Little wizards were persecuted and Muggles often attacked wizard gathering places on a large scale. It was absolutely worth leaving such a big killer.

So the heir of Slytherin actually has the blood of Slytherin and is determined to protect Hogwarts.

And becoming this heir also has some benefits. One of them is the inheritance left by Slytherin, which is Finney's goal, and there is also a contractual authority for Hogwarts Castle.

You must know that this castle originally belonged to Slytherin personally. When Hogwarts was established, he rented it to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at the price of one kart, and the time was permanent.

But in the final analysis, the ownership of this castle still belongs to Slytherin, so this heir is also the heir of the castle.

As long as he becomes this heir, the control center in the room above Dumbledore's office will not be able to monitor this person, and will also be affected.

In other words, Slytherin left a back door of the castle for his heir, which can directly obtain authority far beyond the principal.

Finally, Finney asked about the location of Slytherin's research room in this secret room, which is where he left his inheritance.

In fact, it is in the mouth of Slytherin's statue, where Basque came out.

The statue is also very dim. Under the magic of Finney's gloves, Finney vaguely sees the surrounding situation.

This is a very wide passage, which should be a special structure for Basque to move back and forth.

Walking inside, you will come to the basilisk's nest. There is a musty smell here, as if it has not been taken care of for a long time.

In fact, it is true. Basque will not clean his nest. After all, he is just a basilisk without hands and feet.

Next to his lair was a stone door with some unknown patterns carved on it.
