Their next destination was the library.

When he came to the library, Zhang Feng's goal was very clear, and he took out a book directly on the shelf, which was "Where Are the Magical Creatures" written by Newt Scamander.

Speaking of this book, we have to mention Professor Newt Scamander, who graduated from Hogwarts and devoted himself to the protection of various magical beasts after graduation, and the original manuscript of this book is kept in the Hogwarts library. The version of "Where Are the Magical Creatures" circulating on the market has been deleted by the Ministry of Magic and many creatures that cannot be raised privately, so Zhang Feng and the others took the original version, and only the original version has a creature like a basilisk.

"Basilisk?" Except for Zhang Feng, everyone else opened their mouths wide.

"That's right! ”

The first recorded basilisk was bred by "Hellbo the Mean", a Greek dark wizard with a parseltongue. After many experiments, he discovered that if a male egg was hatched under the body of a toad, a dangerous snake with extraordinary abilities would hatch.

It is a large snake with a dazzling green body, and its body can reach up to fifty feet long. The male snake has a bright red feather on its head. Its fangs are unusually poisonous, but its most dangerous attack is to stare at its target with its large yellow eyes. Anyone whose gaze touches its gaze will be killed instantly. If there is enough food (the basilisk will eat all mammals, birds, and many species of reptiles), this snake will have a very long lifespan. The basilisk of "Despicable Helbo" lived almost nine hundred years.

The creation of a basilisk has been considered illegal since the Middle Ages, but it is easy to hide as long as the male egg is removed from under the toad's body before the Magical Creatures Control Division arrives. However, basilisks are not controlled by anyone but the Parseltongue, so they are dangerous not only to others, but also to most dark wizards. In Britain, there have been no recorded sightings of basilisks for at least 400 years.

Breeding basilisks was illegal in the Middle Ages, and by now, it has been written into the Prohibition of Domesticating Animals for Experiments, but this law is not often violated even by dark wizards, because the only person who can control the basilisk is the Parseltongue.

Spiders run away at the sight of the basilisk, the basilisk is their natural predator, and the only thing that can make the basilisk run away is the crowing of the rooster, as this is fatal to the basilisk. The phoenix seems to be unafraid of the basilisk's deadly gaze.

In addition to its unique magic and extremely long lifespan, many of the Basilisk's characteristics come from being a poisonous snake. Like normal venomous snakes, basilisks shed their skin every once in a while, and their omnivorous nature is common with large snakes. The basilisk's skin is likely to have the same armor properties as the dragon's skin, reflecting spells that hit it, and only its eyes and mouth are the only weak points of defense. "The above is from "Where are the Amazing Creatures", and the knowledge is very comprehensive.

"It seems that we know several things: first, according to Myrtle's death, he should have been stare at to death by the basilisk, second, the basilisk is controlled by man, and by someone who knows the Parseltongue, and third, the basilisk can be killed by the crowing of a rooster, and the phoenix is not afraid of the basilisk's gaze. So the basilisk isn't scary for us anymore, I think it's the Parseltongue guy who can be scary. Zhang Feng summed it up to everyone.

"I think Myrtle's bathroom should be the entrance to the chamber, otherwise the Parseltongue was present there during the two chamber openings that spanned 60 years. Hermione spoke her mind.

"Speaking of which, Harry, you seem to hear strange noises before the basilisk attacks, and I think you're a parseltongue too. Ron burst out of nowhere.

"Well, I just reacted. But I don't think there's anything wrong with me having a Parseltongue, I'm not the one who controls the basilisk. Harry nodded.

"But I think you still have to control it, don't expose this trait in front of others, and prevent others from thinking of you as a murderer. Zhang Feng persuaded Harry, but looking at Harry's expression, it was obvious that he didn't listen.

Gryffindor is like this, always naively thinking that the world is black and white is white, and always thinking that if you are doing right and sitting upright, you are not afraid of others being black.

It seems that one of the big jobs behind Zhang Feng and the others is to help Harry solve the problem of Parseltongue.
