Reborn Harry Potter

Chapter 169 The Basilisk Moves Again!

.. In this bright afternoon, the students listened attentively to an ancient legend.

Professor Binns said in his usual slow style: "As you all know, Hogwarts was founded more than 1000 years ago - the exact date is uncertain - by four of the greatest wizards of the time. Four The house is named after them: Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin. Together they built the A castle, away from the prying eyes of Muggles, for in those days Muggles were afraid of magic and wizards were persecuted a lot."

"In the first few years, the founders worked harmoniously together, looking around for young people who showed signs of magic, and bringing them to the castle to train them well. But slowly, there were differences between them. Slytherin and The rift between the others was growing. Slytherin wanted Hogwarts to be more selective in its admissions. He believed that magical education should be limited to pure wizarding families. He was reluctant to accept Muggle-born children, thinking they were Unreliable. Some days later, Slytherin and Gryffindor had a violent argument over this issue, and Slytherin left the school."

"These are reliable histories." Professor Binns seemed unwilling to continue, but the performance of the students below forced him to continue.

He said reluctantly: "But in the real history, there is a confusing legend."

"The story says that Slytherin built a secret room in the castle that the other founders didn't know about."

"According to the legend, Slytherin sealed the Chamber of Secrets so that no one could open it until his true heir came to the school. Only that heir could open the Chamber of Secrets, release the horrors inside, and let it purify the school. , remove all those who are not worthy of learning magic."

After the story was told, the class was silent.

Professor Binns finally said: "Of course, this matter is all nonsense. Only simple-minded people would believe such legends."

Afterwards, the students kept wanting to know some other details from Professor Binns, such as what was the scary thing, could it be the super invincible scary monster Pikachu? The one with 100 million volts, how to open the chamber of secrets, whether it needs the blood of a Slytherin descendant, and so on.

Professor Binns stared: "I've said it all, it's something that doesn't exist, it's a rumor, let's go back to the books."

Then, all the students thought at the same time: Such a beautiful afternoon is really suitable for sleeping...

After Dumbledore knew that Binns actually said something about the Chamber of Secrets in class, his nose was about to straighten (Dumbledore's nose was crooked in the original book), but he has been suppressing this matter.

……

The days passed slowly.

Because Harry wasn't that keen on exploring the Chamber of Secrets, and didn't reveal that he heard Parseltongue.Hermione just wanted to find the secret room out of curiosity and research. It was no exaggeration to make compound potion and ask Malfoy about the situation.

This Saturday, around eleven o'clock in the morning, all the teachers and students of the school rushed to the Quidditch Stadium.

The air is humid today, the sky is dark, and there is thunder in the sky. Maybe today's game will be held in a heavy rain.

Harry was wearing a college uniform and was sitting on a stand more than ten meters high with other students.

The Gryffindor and Slytherin teams headed to the field.

They each won cheers from their houses, while Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws were also cheering on Gryffindors, who didn't want Slytherins to win.

Gryffindor captain Wood and others gathered together to cheer.

"Although they have the latest Nimbus broom, so what, we haven't had a good rest since August."

"Their Seeker, Malfoy, isn't going to pick it up so quickly."

"This time, we must let them know that money is not everything."

……

Astoria sat beside Harry and asked, "Brother, who will win?"

Harry shook his head: "I don't know either. One is that they have the upper hand on the broom, and the other is that they train harder."

Without Harry's participation, Dobby, the little elf of Malfoy's family, did not do anything bad, and the Bludgers bumped into the sky obediently.

Half an hour later, the sky began to rain.

In the viewing seats of the four colleges, magic was used to drive away the rain.

Players roared past in the rain.

The score of the game was not much different, and the Golden Snitch was still missing. Both sides were a little anxious, and their physical strength couldn't keep up.

The speed of flying in the sky also slowly decreased.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Ms. Huo Qi discussed with the deans of the colleges and suspended the game. Players and spectators could go to eat or take a short break. At 02:30, the game continued.

Harry didn't think this kind of sport was much fun, but during the meal, most of the classmates were discussing who would win the game for a while.

Harry hoped this boring game would be over soon.

So under Harry's powerful "idea", within a few minutes of the game in the afternoon, Gryffindor overtook Slytherin, the score was 640 to 620.But then, Malfoy was possessed by the god of luck and caught the golden snitch, and the game was over.

Malfoy was holding the small golden snitch in his hand. Excited and proud, he looked at the seats of Gryffindor College, with a look of embarrassment on his face, and raised the golden ball in his hand.

Harry was stunned, maybe it was for me to see.

But the other students didn't know it, and they were all furious, thinking that Malfoy was provoking, and they scolded the Slytherin people.

During dinner in the evening, Wood came to Harry. He complained a little about why Harry didn't join the Quidditch team. He seemed to want to shift the responsibility for today's loss to Harry, an innocent passer-by.

When Harry figured out what he meant, he didn't even bother to show it, and just ignored him.

After he left angrily, Hermione said, "I didn't expect him to be this kind of person..."

Harry listened to Hermione defending him, and his mind was complicated, because the basilisk came out again.

……

A boy got lost on a spiral staircase and ended up somewhere.

He wears a camera around his neck.

At this moment, he suddenly heard something rubbing against his head.

Could it be the monster rumored in the secret room recently?He grabbed the camera and followed, if he could take a picture of it... he thought feverishly.

After he couldn't hear the sound, there was a thick pipe in front of him, and a shadow emerged from the pipe.

He held up the camera, a little excited.

Then, he saw a huge head with a pair of khaki pupils.

He was petrified.

The basilisk completed its mission and disappeared into the pipe again.

It wasn't until the next day that someone discovered Colin's body.

He quickly reported to the dean, and the dean and Dumbledore and the professors all came here.

Dumbledore looked at Colin who had become a statue, and said to himself: "It seems that the Chamber of Secrets has really been opened."

"Professor Sprout, how long will it take for the mandrake with the petrified medicine to grow?"

"Three months." Professor Sprout said worriedly.

Professor Lockhart interjected, "I have a way to make the Mandrake grow as quickly as possible, and it only takes three days." He smiled confidently.

Professor Sprout said angrily, "I'm the professor of botany. I don't want to grow mandrakes from seeds again."

Lockhart looked resentful, but he said again: "If the Mandrake is mature, please let me prepare the potion for curing petrification. I guarantee it will be correct. Back then..."

Snape said gloomyly from behind: "Sorry, the Potions professor in this school is not dead yet."

Lockhart shut up, he felt that all the professors were not very friendly to him, he obviously just wanted to guide their work.

Dumbledore said heavily: "I hope nothing will happen during this period, otherwise we might face the risk of closing the school."

As soon as this remark came out, the complexions of many teachers changed slightly. They have worked in the school for many years and have a deep affection for the school. If the school can't even protect the safety of the students, or even close the school, I'm afraid the parents I will never trust this school again.

But there were only two people who were not sad, one was Snape and the other was Lockhart.

Lockhart said slyly: "Then if Mr. Dumbledore is suspended, he should find a professor to act as the headmaster temporarily. I think with my ability to deal with things calmly and my strong strength, the council should consider it. I."

Snape just wanted to stay away from this sand sculpture. He just wanted to go to the sky when he first entered Hogwarts. He hasn't accomplished this goal yet. He has waited in school for more than ten years without killing the old guy Dumbledore, and he dared to be In the face of the current principal.

Dumbledore had never regretted his decision to hire him so much. He thought he was stupid, so he was stupid, but it turned out that he had no brains at all.
