Chapter 126: Slytherin Secret Room Adventure (Part I)
The idea of coming to the mage for help was Hermione's idea, in fact, according to Harry's meaning, he planned to go directly to Lockhart.
Because he knew where the entrance to the chamber was.
Unbeknownst to the three of them, when they went to Lockhart's office, they found that the person had long since disappeared, and even the messy luggage had been taken away.
As Harry and Ron were in a hurry, Hermione reminded them that they could go to Professor Ryze.
In the absence of Dumbledore at the school, the mage is the most likely person to rescue Ginny.
His strength is obvious to all.
So, the three of them immediately rushed to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, and they happened to meet Lu Wu who was about to go out.
"Professor, save my sister!" Ron, who cares about his relatives, doesn't need to be taught at this time, and directly hugs the mage's thigh and cries.
Hermione and Harry looked at him with begging eyes, and echoed, "Professor, you can help him." ”
"Hurry up." Although Lu Wu knew everything, he still had to pretend not to understand and asked, "What's wrong with you, kids?" ”
After Ron was helped up, Harry gave a brief account of what had happened.
After listening, Lu Wu pretended to nod his head: "So that's the case, without further ado, take me quickly." ”
Unbelieving his suspicions, Harry and the others quickly led him to Myrtle's bathroom.
When she arrived, Myrtle was not there, and the three little wizards called for a long time before she reluctantly appeared above the toilet cubicle.
"Myrtle doesn't want to see guests today, so let's go."
As he spoke, he cautiously looked at the mage behind them.
Of the trio, only Hermione Min was aware of this, and she was very puzzled in her heart, why was she afraid of a living person when she was already dead?
Thinking of this, the little witch turned her gaze to the mage who was next to the old god.
But after looking at it for a long time, I didn't see a problem.
And the other two little wizards thought that Myrtle was simply in a bad mood today.
So, it didn't take it seriously, and Harry even began to ask about the cause of her death.
The female ghost with glasses inexplicably has a good impression of the little wizard who also wears glasses, and she doesn't feel offended, but answers the question seriously.
"It was scary." The myrtle was pitiful, with a face full of grievances, and pointed to the toilet cubicle below her and said, "This is where it happened." ”
"I was hiding inside because Olaf Hombe was laughing at me for wearing glasses."
"I was crying when I suddenly heard someone coming in."
Harry couldn't help but ask, "Who's in?" ”
"I don't know, I was annoyed." The myrtle, who recalled the scene back then, seemed a little angry: "They spoke very strangely, like they made up their own language. ”
"I heard that it was a boy who had come in, so I opened the door and told him to go away."
"And then I died..."
The more he talked, the more angry the ghost became, and the corners of his mouth turned down and he was about to cry, but he was so frightened by the mage's eyes that he held back again.
"Is that all? How could it be! Harry was puzzled by this casual way of dying.
Hermione and Ron also began to wonder if what she said was true or false.
To prove that she was telling the truth, Myrtle went on to add, "Even though I didn't see the man's face, I saw a pair of big yellow eyes. ”
"It's in the sink next to you."
Immediately afterward, the female ghost disappeared into the compartment as if she had fled.
Following her prompting, the crowd turned their attention to the octagonal washbasin made of marble.
Harry guessed that this was the entrance to the secret room, but he didn't know how to open it.
Just as he wanted to take a closer look, the clever little witch had already turned her attention to the mage for help.
So, Lu Wu, who received the distress signal, snapped his fingers slightly, the lid on the top of the sink slowly rose, and the octagonal washbasin was divided into eight pieces and spread out in all directions.
At the bottom of the pool, a bottomless, well-like hole appeared in front of everyone.
"You wait here for a while, and I'll go down and have a look." With that, the mage suddenly disappeared in place, apparently entering the hole where his fingers could not be seen.
The three of Harry inexplicably felt a sense of security at this time, and the feeling of being protected by a strong man was really cool.
You don't have to do anything, everything is solved.
A few seconds later, Lu Wu suddenly appeared again, and said lightly to the three little wizards, "It's safe down there, I'll take you to take a look." ”
Just as the mage was about to take them down, the vanished myrtle floated out of the compartment and said slowly, "Hey, Harry. ”
"If you die down there, you are welcome to share this toilet with me."
After saying that, he smiled happily.
Seeing this, Ron immediately frowned and put on a strange expression, while Hermione, the little witch, snickered on the side.
Feeling embarrassed, Harry coughed lightly and said unnaturally, "Thank you, Myrtle." ”
"Looks like our Harry is very popular with girls." Lu Wu joked as he motioned for the little wizards to move closer to him.
Then, a purple light flashed, and the group of four disappeared into the bathroom.
In an instant, several people came to the bottom of the cold and damp cave, and there was a fishy smell wafting in the air.
On the ground, there is also a thick layer of animal bones.
"Uh... It's disgusting here. Ron covered his nose and sighed.
Harry and Hermione also looked around with disgusted expressions.
The mage pulled out his wand, which he hadn't used for a long time, conjured a small, brightly colored flag on it, and then shook the flag like a tour guide.
"Everyone, keep up."
"Next, let the teacher lead you to visit the famous attractions of Hogwarts Castle, Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets."
The relaxed tone made Hermione and Harry forget about the terrible environment around them for a moment, and happily followed.
What was once an extremely dangerous adventure has become as pleasant as a spring outing.
Even Ron, who had always been worried about his sister's safety, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the mage's confident appearance.
Hogwarts has underground tunnels in all directions, and there are many naturally occurring caves between the pipes.
Although the interior was very dim, with only a little light coming in, it was a perfect time for a young wizard of this age to explore.
On the way, they also saw a complete snake molt, which apparently belonged to the basilisk.
"Oh my God, this snake has to be nearly 20 meters, if not longer!" The red-haired wizard shouted in surprise.
Compared to Ron, who only dared to stand and watch, Harry had already crouched next to the snake and touched it with his hand.
Hermione, as for hermione, seemed to dislike the thing, and followed closely behind the mage, clutching the corner of his coat.
"Alright, two classmates, don't look any further." Lu Wu waved a small flag and said, "The secret room is in front, hurry up and follow." ”
