Chapter 221 A Secret World in the Secret Room

The basilisk was finally tamed, and Yang Tian's mind was completely relaxed. Only then did he have the mood to take a closer look at the surrounding scenery. It must be said that except for the empty hall... there was nothing.

In fact, Yang Tian was a little confused when he read the original novel. Salazar Slytherin was one of the Big Four. Regardless of his merits and demerits, you didn't really build a chamber of secrets just to raise a basilisk, kill Muggle wizards, and purify Hogwarts, right? Didn't you think of leaving some inheritance or treasures for your heirs? Or were these things already taken away by Voldemort back then?

With this question in mind, Yang Tian started chatting with the newly captured snake monster in snake dialect.

"What's your name?" Yang Tian tried to get closer.

"Master, my name is Golinia." The basilisk also seemed very cooperative.

"Wow, what a nice name. Was it given to you by Salazar Slytherin?" Yang Tian asked in amazement. He kept muttering in his heart, could it be that basilisks also have male and female?

"Yes, the old master has always called me that since Golinia became conscious." The basilisk reminisced.

"So, Golinia. Does this secret room have any other secrets?" Yang Tiantu asked pointedly.

"Of course, my master." The basilisk had been completely tamed by Yang Tian, ​​so it naturally answered every question: "There is another level in this secret room. Only those who have passed the verification of the old master can enter."

As expected, Yang Tian was delighted. I knew it, building such a huge palace to raise a snake monster, what a fuss!

"Tell me quickly, what level is it?" Yang Tian asked anxiously.

"Reporting to the master, this is just a very simple blood verification level. Drop a drop of blood of the descendant of Slytherin into each eye of the old master's statue, and you can enter." The basilisk answered the question faithfully.

Yang Tian felt a chill in his heart when he heard this: "So, Voldemort has already been in there?"

"Who is Voldemort?" the basilisk asked puzzledly.

Yang Tian was stunned, and quickly asked: "Who has entered this secret room?"

"Since the chamber was built, besides the old master and you, only a young man about 50 years ago has entered," the basilisk explained.

"That's not right." Yang Tian was even more puzzled after hearing this: "That young man should be a member of the Gaunt family, right? Strictly speaking, he is a descendant of Slytherin, right?"

"That's right." The basilisk nodded humanely and said, "But he is a shame to Slytherin. He is not a pure blood! For the great Salazar Slytherin, this is unforgivable."

"I'll go." Yang Tian was really confused this time: "But you still followed his instructions?"

"Master, I am not following his orders, but the orders of the old master. The relationship between the young man and I is at most a partnership."

"You know a lot." Yang Tian said speechlessly, "Then do you know what will happen after you pass this level?"

"I'm sorry, Master, the old master didn't tell me this." The basilisk explained, "I only know that before the old master left Hogwarts, he spent most of his time in the secret room behind the level."

Hearing the words of the basilisk, Yang Tian was really tempted. But how to deal with the blood of the descendants of Slytherin? The Gaunt family seemed to have completely disappeared. Even Voldemort was not qualified. Where could he find qualified blood?

Suddenly, Yang Tian's heart moved. There was nearly a layer of blood in his suitcase, but he didn't know if there was anything that met the requirements?

Do it as soon as you think of it! Yang Tian quickly asked the intelligent brain: "Intelligent brain, help me check whether there is pure blood from the Gaunt family in the blood samples in the suitcase."

The cold mechanical voice of the intelligent computer sounded immediately: "The blood bank has the blood of Marvolo Gaunt and Merope Gaunt."

It really is! Yang Tian was overjoyed and quickly took the suitcase out of the white jade ring. After opening the suitcase, he rushed in.

After a while, he ran back carefully holding two reagent bottles. Wow, there was only one drop in each reagent bottle, just show how stingy Yang Tian is.

The next operation was not complicated. He just sat on the somersault cloud and put a drop of blood in each eye, just right... After doing all this, Yang Tian watched with great anticipation what would happen next.

Sure enough, when the blood completely seeped into the statue's eyes, a "creaking" sound of gears suddenly came from below the hall, and the huge statue slowly turned to the wall behind it along with the sound of gears. Finally, when the statue was completely facing the wall, the creaking sound stopped abruptly.

Yang Tian had been closely following the development of the situation, and he really didn't understand the meaning of this mechanism. But in the next moment, something strange happened.

The statue of Salazar Slytherin seemed to have suddenly been worn down by the years, and was losing its original luster at a speed visible to the naked eye. Not only that, as time went by, the traces of time became more and more obvious on it, and tiny cracks began to spread, interweaving like a spider web. At first, these cracks were just tiny flaws and were not noticeable. But soon, they gradually expanded and even spread to the whole body.

Yang Tian found it hard to imagine what kind of power could cause the statue to become like this in just a moment.

But it wasn't over yet! The next moment, the surface of the statue began to peel off, and tiny pieces fell off quietly, and its structure became fragile. Finally, when it reached a certain critical point, more pieces fell off one after another, and the statue seemed unable to bear its own weight. Finally, it collapsed with a loud bang, smoke and dust rose up, and the original statue was shattered into pieces on the ground...

"This... is this the end?" Yang Tian couldn't believe his eyes. He even suspected that the two drops of blood he dropped were fake and shoddy products. Otherwise, how could such serious consequences be caused?

But when the smoke and dust completely dissipated, Yang Tian was dumbfounded again. He saw a brand new statue standing on the land full of debris, and this statue seemed to be more vital than before; however, this statue was only one-third of the height of the original statue.

Of course, this statue is also an image of an old man, but there is no sense of being old and frail or dying at all.

From Yang Tian's perspective, the old man was not really handsome. But he was tall and slender, with an upright posture; his dark gray hair was neat and orderly, showing his rigor and self-discipline; his eyes were sharp, and his lips were thin and tightly closed, which blended together and revealed a restrained and mysterious temperament.

Just by staring at the statue, Yang seemed to be able to understand its qualities: wisdom, ambition, and ruthlessness, which were consistent with the characteristics of Slytherin House.

This... maybe it's a younger Salazar? Before he could further observe the statue, the sound of gears turning sounded again; and this time it was more frequent and seemed more complicated.

However, the stone wall opposite the new Slytherin statue was split into two parts in the middle again, and then slowly moved to both sides until a huge entrance as high as the new statue was formed.

Looking at the scene in front of me now, the picture is completely different! It feels as if Slytherin is proudly showing the scene inside the door to his descendants, showing his ambition. I have to say, it is a masterpiece!

However, Yang Tian was in no mood to appreciate it all. He could not wait to rush into the door, wanting to see what the famous Salazar Slytherin had left for his descendants...
