Chapter 269: History a Thousand Years Ago

“................ In this way, the rift between Slytherin and the others grew as a result of differences in educational philosophy, and it wasn't long before he and Gryffindor quarreled over admissions. ”

In the History of Magic classroom at Hogwarts, Binns continued to tell the story of what had happened in history in his hollow, mechanical voice, although, unlike usual, no students were dozing off their desks.

Both the eaglets and the snakes sat intently in their seats, listening intently to Professor Binns's speech.

"Slytherin believes that Hogwarts should only admit students from pure-blood wizarding families, and he doesn't like young wizards who have grown up in Muggle families, believing them to be unreliable."

"That's right, those Muggles are literally polluting the wizard's bloodline." A young Slytherin wizard whose name William didn't know whispered.

Hearing this, Earl and Ike both shrunk their necks involuntarily, and they remembered what they had seen in the corridor on the second floor that night, and this naked hatred of Muggles made the two of them a little frightened.

"Wizards have a long history of prejudice against Muggles, but don't worry, as long as Dumbledore is around, no one will dare to make such reactionary statements publicly." William's voice came not far away, and the little snake who had made inappropriate remarks also closed his mouth in time.

Neither Dumbledore nor William could afford to provoke him, snakes have always been good at protecting themselves, and they will be very clever to hibernate in the face of danger.

"They had a heated argument in what is now the Great Hall, and to Slytherin's horror, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw were on Gryffindor's side." Professor Binns did not notice the noise below the podium, and he stared at the students with his cloudy eyes, and continued to repeat his monotonous narration.

This made Slytherin so angry that he left Hogwarts in a fit of rage, and no definite record of Slytherin has been found since.

True and reliable history tells us this. What I'm going to talk about now is those ethereal myths and legends. The old ghost paused, then continued.

"After Slytherin left Hogwarts in a bad mood, legends of the Chamber of Secrets began to spread.

Many wizards believe that Slytherin has left behind a sealed chamber that only his true heir can open to unleash the horrors inside, allowing it to purify the school once and for all, and rid it of all those who do not deserve to learn magic. ”

After Professor Binns finished speaking, the classroom fell into an eerie silence, and some Muggle-born wizards couldn't help but think of the experience they had had a few days ago, since it was written on the wall that the secret room had been opened, did that mean that the terrifying thing had appeared in the school?

Thinking of this, several young wizards had frightened expressions on their faces, and they looked nervously around, as if they were afraid that the terrifying monster would suddenly pounce on it and tear them to pieces.

Noticing the nervousness of the students, Professor Binns continued, his voice tinged with annoyance.

"Enough, that's just an ethereal legend! I don't know how many times the school has investigated the secret room over the years, and I don't know how many learned wizards have been invited.

We eventually came to the conclusion that the Chamber of Secrets did not exist at all, and that it was just a legend designed to scare the simple-minded. ”

Professor Binns's words calmed the students' nervousness again, after all, the words of a professor, even though they were ghost professors, were still very convincing.

"Professor Binns, what do you mean by the horrors in the Chamber of Secrets?" Ike raised his hand timidly, and although Professor Binns quickly explained that the Chamber of Secrets was just a fictional legend, Ike still felt a little uneasy in his heart.

I don't know what he remembered, that face was a little frightening.

"It is said that Slytherin has left behind some kind of monster that only a true Slytherin heir can control. Do what Slytherin didn't do and purify all of Hogwarts. ”

This undoubtedly made the students in the room even more nervous, especially the Muggle-born wizards, because they noticed that some of the little Slytherin snakes were watching them with the eyes of a playful man, and those eyes flashed with the viciousness of snakes.

Thanks to Slytherin's pure-blood ethos, there was not a single pure Muggle-born wizard in his house, and all the snakes came from wizarding families, or those that were half and half families.

"William, is there really a secret room~~ I mean, is there really any terrifying monster?" Ike looked nervous, not sure if he remembered something or if he was uneasy because of the snake-like gaze.

"Almost." William glanced at the flamboyant snakes with a warning eye.

"Either way, the Ravenclaw Tower will be the safest place, and there are too few clues right now, and I can't tell for sure." He whispered comfort to his roommates.

"If Slytherin's approval is required to open the Chamber of Secrets, then even Dumbledore may not know where the Chamber of Secrets is!" Terry analyzed it seriously, and this successfully aroused the thinking of Kitty Hawk and the little snakes.

"I think I might need some kind of dark magic, didn't you see the petrified cat?"

"I have a feeling that it may be the power of the bloodline, did the Slytherins leave any bloodline behind before leaving?" The students began to chatter about the secret room.

"I'm telling you, that thing doesn't exist!" There was a rare emotion in Professor Binns's voice, a fierce anger.

"Holy! I shouldn't have told you these ridiculous and ridiculous stories at all, let's go back to the history that has been confirmed and actually happened!

I just said that in 1289 the wizards who were invited to the International Wizarding Convention were, Andros, Aditeke, Etheline, ..............."

With Professor Binns' hollow voice ringing through the classroom again, within five minutes the young wizards were once again in that groggy sleep.

Professor Binns, you've definitely been kissed by the devil on the throat!
