Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

"Ron, I don't understand what you're saying?" Harry took a step forward.

"Don't go there, Harry, he's not Ron, he's Tom Riddle!" Ivan shouted hastily.

"Ivan Mason!" The smile on the corner of Ron's mouth gradually cooled down, "You damned, hateful Mudblood, I expected that you would be a trouble, but I didn't expect you to dare to play with the great Slytherin Heir, I will make you pay the price, you will regret it..."

"Enough, what the hell are you four up to?!" Snape interrupted Ron, and walked into the common room with a gloomy expression.

He stood outside and heard their conversation just now, Snape frowned, not understanding what these four people were going crazy.

The heir of Slytherin is actually a student of Gryffindor, or the empty-headed Ron Weasley. In his opinion, this is simply the biggest joke. It must be Ivan, Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Play a prank.

Snape pulled out his wand, and he was going to use a stun spell to calm these guys down.

But before he could recite the spell, he heard a loud noise from inside the Gryffindor common room, enough to wake most of the castle awake.

"Don't you Gryffindor idiots know what time it is, or do you all want to get out of Hogwarts!" Snape yelled.

But he stopped immediately, and there was a booming sound in the bathroom not far away.It seemed that some huge object fell from a high altitude to the stone ground, and the entire Gryffindor tower was shaken. This was obviously not a sound that students could make.

Snape turned hastily and looked at the bathroom, pointing his wand cautiously forward.

Ron's weird smile returned to the corner of his mouth, and the others stared at the bathroom door with horror on their faces.

Strange noises are constantly being made inside, something is about to come out, and the atmosphere is tense and terrifying.

Ivan, Harry, and Hermione pulled out their wands in a hurry. Snape took a step forward with a serious face, his whole body tensed, and the tip of the wand glowed faintly.

With a bang, the door of the bathroom flew upside down, sending sawdust flying.

Amidst the dust, Ai Wen saw an ugly giant snake slipping out of the bathroom. into the air.

"It's a basilisk, don't look into its eyes!" Ivan yelled, and pointed a spell at the basilisk with his wand.

Snape was even faster than him. Just when the basilisk rushed out of the bathroom, the faint fluorescence at the tip of his wand suddenly intensified, emitting three dark silver rays of light in succession, like sharp arrows off the string, accurate An unerring hit to the basilisk, leaving three bloody scars on its green scales.

It didn't seem to expect that it would be attacked as soon as it crawled out. The basilisk's huge and flat head shook for a while, as if drunk, and the severe pain on its body irritated it.It let out a frantic hiss, and looked down upon anyone who dared to attack it, staring out two huge yellow eyes like light bulbs.

Immediately afterwards, it saw an orange-red light flying towards its eyes.

Ivan's eye sickness spell hit it, and the basilisk closed its eyes in pain.

Chapter 53 The Crazy Basilisk

Harry and Hermione took the opportunity to cast a few spells, but they were bounced off the basilisk's scales.

Only Snape's magic could leave wounds on its body, and streams of black blood splashed onto the ground like a shower, and the basilisk frantically swung its huge tail across the common room viciously. And pass, smash the wall.

The loud sound of fighting woke up the entire Gryffindor, and students kept running out of the bedroom, and the expressions on their faces changed from just waking up to panic.

"Oh my God!" Colin wiped his eyes and looked at what happened in front of him in disbelief. Then he seemed to think of something, his eyes lit up, he turned around and ran back to the bedroom, took out his camera and frantically pressed the shutter.

"What's going on, what's going on, what's going on here?" Percy stepped out, his prefect badge still pinned to his pajamas.

In the next second, his eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it when he saw a giant green snake ramming around in the common room.Unlike the students who stood there dumbfounded, Percy's reaction speed was fairly fast, and he subconsciously took out his wand and cast a spell.

The red light hit the basilisk, and was immediately ejected.

The basilisk hissed and attacked continuously, making it a little crazy. It wanted to tear all the people in front of it apart, but before it could make a move, Snape's curse hit it again, and it She shrank back suddenly, trying to fight back, but her eyes hurt so much that she couldn't open them.

In another corner of the common room, Ivan, Harry, and Hermione were attacking Ron, who was controlled by Tom Riddle, and spells of light flashed from time to time.

Riddle looked a little flustered, but calm.

He tried his best to dodge the magic spell flying towards him, but he couldn't dodge it, so he greeted him with the wand that was split in two, and a spark was emitted, and the magic spells of the three of them were instantly invalidated.

Alvin squinted his eyes, it won't work like this.

After casting another stun spell, he quickly recited a esoteric spell, and the magic power quickly gathered on the wand in his hand, with bursts of oppression, the wand intermittently emitted light blue light.

"It's so funny, you actually want to use the black magic I taught you to attack me! I have to admit, I did despise you before, Mudblood!" Riddle glared at Ivan fiercely, "If it weren't for this wand, it really wouldn't fit , I would like to continue to play with you."

He turned around abruptly, and spoke a few words to the basilisk in Parseltongue.

Hearing his call, the basilisk suddenly abandoned Snape, and slid towards Ivan quickly.Its mouth was wide open, so big that it could almost swallow everyone, and two rows of fangs as long as silver swords were exposed in the mouth, which were thin, glowing coldly, and contained venom.

It rushed over blindly, Ivan stopped the spell, and Hermione stood behind him pale.

The two of them dodged in a hurry, but it was too late, the speed of the basilisk was too fast.

Without even thinking about it, Ivan turned around and hugged Hermione tightly, turning his back to the basilisk. He could feel the girl in his arms trembling constantly.

The next second, Harry, who was standing aside, also rushed in screaming, holding a wooden seat in his hand, and threw it viciously at the basilisk.

But this was of no use at all, the mantis was completely acting like a car, and the speed of the basilisk did not slow down at all.

Just when they thought they were going to be swallowed by the basilisk, Snape suddenly appeared in front of them.

His face was as gloomy as water, and the light from the wand in his hand became stronger and stronger.

boom! ! !

Snape rose from the ground, slammed into the wall behind him, and then slid to the floor again, a trail of blood seeping from under his hair, he was knocked unconscious!

"The annoying guy has finally been dealt with, next..." Riddle looked contemptuously at Snape who had fainted on the floor.

The basilisk slid towards him, and its body was no longer twisted in pain like before. Ivan knew that the time for the eye sickness spell was coming, and the basilisk would soon recover.

"Damn it, the professors must be coming, just hold on for a while..."

Ai Wen's heart moved, or if he could get the thing he made a few days ago, he might be able to get rid of the basilisk.

Without the help of the basilisk, the wand in Tom Riddle's hand, which was split in two, could not continuously emit powerful magic. The duel just now made Ivan realize that Riddle wanted to operate the wand so that it would not cause any accidents. is his limit.

Obviously, Tom Riddle also realized that there was not much time left for him, so he turned around and ordered the basilisk to kill Ivan.

While he was speaking in hissing Parseltongue, a red-haired girl suddenly ran down the stairs, it was Ginny!

"Ron, what are you doing?!"

Her face was pale, and she looked eagerly at the four people in the corner, her face was full of fear, but her gaze became more and more determined.She was still wearing pink pajamas, and the magic wand she held tightly in her hand sent a red light towards the basilisk.

Her spell interrupted Riddle's conversation with the basilisk. The basilisk's head shrank back, and its mouth opened and slid forward, angrily trying to tear Ginny apart.

"No!" Harry and Hermione yelled in horror.

Ivan hurriedly issued a spell, but it didn't work.

They tried to save her, but it was too late, Ginny was too close to the basilisk.

Just when everyone closed their eyes and didn't dare to continue watching, Ron suddenly rushed over and rescued Ginny at a critical moment.

Ron seemed to have returned to normal, tears streaming out uncontrollably.

"Run, run, I'll hold him back." He choked up and shouted, "It's all my fault, I shouldn't trust this guy, I shouldn't..."

Tom Riddle seemed to be fighting Ron for control of his body, and Ron's pale face was full of pain.Soon, Tom Riddle regained control of Ron's body. With a look of disgust on his face, he threw Ginny in his arms aside.

"Unexpected resistance, but the strength is too weak, there is not much life in his body, it is time to end this ridiculous competition, I will purify the entire Hogwarts on behalf of Salazar Slytherin himself Tzu, the Mudblood and his friends are going to die!"

"Unfortunately, you have no chance, Tom!"

Ivan was panting heavily, holding something like a music box in his hand, which was a magic prop he had researched a few days ago to record sounds.

He opened the box, and suddenly there was a cock crowing sound inside.

Hearing this sound, the huge body of the basilisk trembled violently.

It was very scared and wanted to run for its life. It no longer listened to Tom Riddle's command, and struggled to slide back towards the bathroom.

"No! You bloody, damned Mudblood!" shrieked Tom Riddle as he climbed onto the basilisk's body. "You'll regret it. The boy's body will remain in the Chamber forever, forever!"

"You can't take Ron."

When the basilisk slid past several people, Harry jumped and grabbed Ron's body. Ivan froze for a moment, and hurriedly grabbed Harry.

In the next second, like a car that stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and quickly started to rush out, they moved forward at high speed, and disappeared into the dark pipe in the corner of the bathroom under the eyes of everyone's astonishment.

Chapter 54 The Secret Room in the Castle

Ivan and Harry clung to Ron tightly, and they were like a roller coaster speeding through the underground pipes, rising, falling, and turning, rushing down a dark, slimy , endless slides.

Because the width of the pipe was too narrow, Ivan had to stick tightly to the basilisk.

Even so, when he turned the corner, he was hit with pain all over his body and stared at him.

He had never known before that the Hogwarts plumbing was designed in such a way that it was like a complex maze where they didn't go all the way down to the Chamber of Secrets.

In an apparently very old pipeline, they went straight up, and Ivan calculated the height and estimated that they came to the Ravenclaw Tower, which is the highest place in the school.

At the highest point of the pipeline, the basilisk led them to a strange oval-shaped room. There were light blue curtains everywhere, and books were all on one side of the room. From the thick dust accumulated on it, we could tell that no one had been there for a long time. been here.

Ron, who was controlled by Tom Riddle, showed obvious surprise on his face. He didn't know this place before, and this was another secret room hidden in the school.

"Damn it!" said Tom Riddle in a hissing voice.

He wanted the basilisk to stop, but obviously, the crowing of the rooster frightened it, and the basilisk did not listen to Tom Riddle's control at all. It panicked and ran for its life as fast as it could.

The room with blue curtains disappeared in an instant. When they passed the table in the center, Ivan reached out and caught something. It was a round object with a long chain on it.

He held the thing tightly in his hand, and before he had time to look down, the basilisk took them down quickly. One minute later, with a loud bang, the basilisk broke the pipe directly, and they cried from the third floor. Myrtle flushed out of the bathroom.

It led them towards the faucet with the small snake carved in the center, and Ron made a rapid hiss.

Immediately, the faucet emitted a dazzling white light and began to spin rapidly.

The pool slowly disappeared from sight, and just as Ivan had time to see a very thick water pipe, the basilisk got in.

This water pipe is much thicker than the ones just now, and it seems to be specially prepared for the basilisk. Aiwen can see that there are many pipes branching out in all directions, but none of them are as thick as this pipe.

The pipe twists and turns, winding seven times and eight times, and the slope is very steep all the way down.

Ai Wen knew that they had slipped into a deep, deep place underground in the school, even deeper than those underground classrooms.Just as he was getting used to the fast gliding, they finally landed on the wet ground.

The water pipe became horizontal, they emerged from the mouth of the pipe, and fell heavily to the ground. A strong collision made Ivan and Harry let go of their hands at the same time, and the basilisk slid away with Ron, and soon just disappear.

It was a dark stone tunnel, big enough for a man to stand in.

"Where is this?" Harry stood up, rubbing his bottom.

"We were brought down miles and miles below the school."

Aiwen's voice echoed in the dark tunnel, "If I'm not mistaken, this is probably under the lake."

He narrowed his eyes and surveyed the dark, sticky walls around him.

Immediately afterwards, he remembered what he had just caught at the top of the castle, in the room full of blue curtains.

"Lumos!" His wand glowed faintly.

With the faint light, Aiwen saw the round object in his hand, which looked like a pocket watch, but there was no scale on it, only a strange pointer.

"What is this?" Harry also leaned over.

"I don't know, I accidentally caught it in the room where the basilisk passed by just now. It seems to be a magic item." Ivan hesitated whether to move the pointer.

"Ivan, let's study this thing when we go back. Let's go, we must hurry up, Ron was taken away by him." Harry said eagerly.

"Yeah, that's right!" Ivan stuffed this strange item into his pocket. They really had to hurry up. Tom Riddle was absorbing Ron's vitality, and the longer it took, the worse it would be for them.

Along the tunnel, the two walked forward quickly, pattering on the wet ground, making a loud noise.

It was so dark that they could only see a small area in front of them.

Faint lights from their wands cast their shadows on the wet wall like monsters.

"Harry, Tom Riddle is using Ron's broken wand. Like wandless magic, this requires extremely powerful control. In a short period of time, he can't cast a powerful spell." Ivan walked quickly He instructed, "I'll attract the basilisk's attention for a while, and you go find the diary."

"Diary?!" Harry froze for a moment.

"It's the black-covered diary we found at Christmas, that's the source of Tom Riddle's power." Ivan whispered, "Remember, find a way to destroy it after you find it, Riddle doesn't know we know this , this is our only chance."

"I remember!" Harry nodded, and suddenly grabbed Ivan's shoulder, "Look, there's something there, isn't it..."

Ivan stretched out his wand, and with the faint fluorescent light, he saw the outline of a huge coiled creature, lying motionless on the other side of the tunnel.

"This is the skin of the basilisk. Maybe someone will want to collect it."

In front of the two of them, a pair of huge snakeskin, full of green and very bright, was coiled and lying on the floor of the tunnel. The inside was empty, fully twenty feet long.Obviously, it was the basilisk that sloughed off just now.

They walked on again, carefully turned yet another bend, and at last stood before them a solid wall carved with two intertwined snakes with large, glittering eyes in their eyes. Bright emerald.

"Harry, talk to them, use Parseltongue." Ivan whispered.

Harry walked closer, feeling his throat go dry.
