MTL - Harry Potter’s Book of Sin-Chapter 71 Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets

The tunnel was as silent as a grave.

Suddenly, they heard an unexpected voice.

"Click"

It turned out that Ron stepped on a mouse skull.

Harry lowered his head to look at the ground, and found that there were some small animal bones everywhere. He desperately restrained himself, not imagining what Ginny would look like when they were found.

Lockhart was walking in front, with a small stride, but the frequency of his legs remained unchanged. He took Harry and Ron through a dark curve in the tunnel.

"Harry, there's something there ..." Ron said hoarsely, grabbing Harry's shoulder.

Suddenly the two stood still and stared nervously.

Harry saw the outline of a coiled giant lying on the other side of the tunnel, motionless.

那 "That's the skin of a snake, a basilisk."

Lockhart raised his wand to let the light shine further.

The rays of light shone on a huge pair of snake skin, green and bright, and it looked like the skin of a poisonous snake. It lay coiled on the floor of the tunnel, which was empty inside.

Apparently, the animal that had just fallen off this skin was at least twenty feet long.

"Oh my God!" Ron sighed weakly.

"Be vigilant and move on." Lockhart said calmly.

The three of them turned round and round in the dark tunnel.

Each of Harry's nerves was shaking uncomfortably, and he wished to come to the end of the tunnel quickly, but at the same time he was a little afraid that the tunnel really came to an end.

Finally, he carefully turned another curve, and finally found a solid wall in front of which was engraved with two intertwined snakes, and their eyes were set with large, shiny emeralds .

"Porter's clue, it's time for you to play again," Lockhart said.

Without Lockhart, Harry had already guessed what he had to do.

He cleared his throat, and the emerald eyes seemed to blink.

He doesn't need to imagine these two stone snakes as real now, because their eyes look exactly like alive.

"Open." Ha said with a deep, hoarse hissing.

The two snakes separated, the stone wall cracked from the middle and slowly slid to the sides and disappeared.

This is the side of a long, dimly lit room.

有着 There are many large stone pillars here, carved with various snakes entangled in entanglement, soaring to the ceiling supporting the ablation in the darkness at a high place, casting a long treacherous shadow on the room filled with mysterious maggot.

Lockhart held his wand halfway, and walked silently between the stone pillars coiled by the serpent.

At this time, Harry and Ron each also pulled out their own wands, and followed him carefully.

每 Each time they took a slight step, a hollow, dull echo was created between the ghostly walls.

Walking in such a quiet environment, any unnecessary noise makes people feel extremely disturbed.

他们 When they reached the position between the last pair of stone pillars, a huge statue as high as the room itself appeared in front of it, and it clung to the dark wall behind.

The slightly greenish stone gave it a ghastly atmosphere.

They had to lift their necks hard enough to see the statue's face clearly—an old dragon bell-like, monkey-like face, a sparsely pulled beard, almost dragged to the hem of the wizard's robe carved from stone, two The big feet stand firmly on the smooth floor of the room.

"... Salazar Slytherin." Lockhart muttered, looking at the statue.

Standing between the two feet of the statue, a small figure in a black robe lies face down, her hair red as flames.

"Ginny!"

Harry and Ron screamed, and hurried to her and squatted down.

"Ginny! Oh-don't die! Please-"

Ron threw down his wand, and grabbed Ginny's shoulder, trying to turn her over. Harry also set aside his wand and helped him.

At this moment Ginny's face was like marble, cold and bloodless, but her eyes were closed, so she was not petrified.

"Ginny, wake up-please-" Ron shook her in despair and pleaded.

Ginny's head tugged lifelessly.

"She won't wake up," a voice said softly.

Ron turned a deaf ear to this voice, he just kept shaking Ginny's body as if he couldn't hear anything else.

Alas, Harry turned back sharply.

A tall black-haired boy leaned on the nearest stone pillar and was watching him. The boy's outline was blurry and strange, as if looking at him through a layer of foggy windows.

"Who are you? What does that mean? You said she won't wake up?" Harry asked angrily, "She didn't--she didn't--"

她 "She's alive," said the dimly-painted boy, "but it won't last long."

Harry was standing still, and Lockhart on the side just stood quietly without saying a word.

那 "Who the **** are you then? Is it a ghost?" Harry asked uncertainly.

是 "It's a memory," Riddle said calmly. "It's been kept in a diary for fifty years."

伸 He put his finger to the big toe of the statue, and there was the diary that Harry had picked up in the crying myrtle's bathroom.

Harry couldn't figure out how it would get there for a moment, he obviously put it in the bedroom-but he had more pressing matters to deal with.

不再 Harry stopped talking to him, but spent a lot of effort helping Ron to lift Ginny from the ground half.

Then he leaned down again to pick up his magic skills, but the wand was gone.

"Did you see--"

"For every wizard, a wand is a lifelong companion ... get it."

Pausing at Harry's side, Lockhart handed Harry's wand over, but his eyes were always fixed on the vague figure.

哦 "Oh, professor, thank you-but what's wrong?"

"He wants to take away your wand." Lockhart looked up and pointed with his chin to the other side.

The tall boy stared at Lockhart for a while, but looked at Harry again.

"Harry Potter, I waited a long time," he said, "I hope to have the chance to see you and talk to you."

哎 "Oh," Harry gradually lost his patience, and said, "You probably haven't understood what I mean, we are in the back room now, and we might as well talk about it later."

"Must talk now." The boy said, a clear smile still on his face.

"There's nothing to talk about! We must go back now, we want to save Ginny!"

Ron suddenly erupted, his angry shout echoed in this huge room, the echoes overlapped, and the voice was even more disturbing.

那就 "Then talk," Lockhart said suddenly, "I think we must know, how did Ginny become this way?"

是 "Yeah, why did Ginny become this way?" Harry couldn't help asking when he heard it.

Ron and Harry, who were half-embracing Ginny, couldn't help calming down, after all, this question was indeed crucial.

"Oh, this is an interesting question," said the boy happily. "It's a long story! The real reason why Ginny Weasley turns into this is for me to see an invisible person. The stranger opened his heart and confided all his secrets. "

"What are you talking about?" Harry said.

"Diary," said the boy, "my diary. For months, Little Ginny has been writing on her heart, telling me her distressing troubles and sorrows-how she was teased by her brothers, what Who had to wear an old robe and go to school with an old book ... And, she thought-- "

The boy's eyes flickered slyly, "She thinks that the famous, kind, great Harry Potter will never like her ..."

When he was talking, his eyes never left Harry's face, as if he had no interest in the existence of other people.

There was an almost greedy expression in his eyes.

"Too boring. Listen to an eleven-year-old girl talking about her childish troubles," he continued, "but I have the patience to write some words to answer her ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ I am kind, Empathetic-Ginny is almost in love with me. Oh, Tom, no one understands me like you ... I'm so glad I got this diary and can tell you what you know. It's like having a place to put Carry friends in your pocket! "

The boy gave a cold, grinning laugh, which didn't seem to come from a sixteen-year-old—it made the hair on the back of Harry's neck stand up.

"I didn't brag ... Harry, I've always been able to confuse people as I want. So, Ginny opened her entire soul to me." The boy said with a smirk, "and her soul happened to be exactly What I need-I devour her most secret fears, the deepest secrets, my appetite is getting bigger and bigger ... I gradually become stronger, much stronger than the little Miss Weasley. Strong enough to tell Wei Miss Sly revealed some of my secrets and started to open a small part of my soul to her ... "

"What are you talking about!" Ron couldn't help shouting, but the other party didn't even have the glance to glance at him.

"Can't you guess? Harry Potter?" He whispered softly, "It was Ginny Weasley who opened the back room; she strangled the **** in the school and smeared it on the wall. Those scary words; it was the Basilisk she let out of Slytherin, which attacked four mud species, and that thin cat with a dumb cannon. "

哦 "Oh no! Impossible!" The expression on Ron's face was distorted. "It's impossible! You're lying! It's Maca who opens the back room! Maca McLean!"

"... Maca McLean." Upon hearing the name, the smile on the boy's face disappeared immediately, and a clear irritation appeared in his eyes.

别 "Don't mention this name to me!" His voice suddenly muffled.
