Journey through the heavens from Hogwarts

Chapter 67 Entering the Chamber of Secrets

Harry looked at the snake, forcing himself to believe that it was alive, because he could only speak Parseltongue when he was actually facing a snake.

Harry thought that if he moved his head a few times, it would make the snake appear to be twisting in the candlelight.

"Open." He said firmly after demonstrating it several times in his mind.

However, instead of these words, what came out of his mouth was a strange hissing sound.Suddenly, the copper faucet emitted a dazzling white light, and it began to spin rapidly.Then, the entire pool shook.

Several people watched as the pool slowly disappeared from sight, replaced by a very thick pipe that could accommodate one person, but the worst thing was that it went downwards.

Harry heard Ron muttering quietly to the side, "Oh my god, I didn't expect him to really find him. I feel like I'm hallucinating."

"When did Lockhart become so reliable!"

Lockhart looked excited and said, "Oh, haha, kids, let's go on a great journey."

Now he can write about his great secret room adventure with Harry Potter, the great savior of the wizarding world.

As for the other three extra people, just cast a small forgetting spell, because this is his exclusive adventure of Lockhart and Harry Potter.

Looking at the pitch-black bottomless pipe in front of him, Lockhart hesitated for a while, then took the lead in extending his legs into the pipe and slid down. Harry and Ron followed closely and slowly got into the pipe, and then Let go and let yourself slide down.

After casting several protective spells on the two of them, Lin Xiao pulled Hermione and followed him down.

While gliding at high speed, Lin Xiao could see many more pipes branching out in all directions. He guessed that they were connected to other parts of the school, but they were obviously not as thick as the current pipe.

Their pipe was twisting and turning, with seven twists and turns, and the slope was very steep all the way down, as if there was no bottom.

They can estimate that they have slipped to a very deep place under the school, even deeper than the school's black lake.

Then, just when they were worried about how long this situation would last, they suddenly fell to the ground.The water pipe became horizontal, emerged from the mouth of the pipe, and fell to the wet ground with a thud.

The three people who entered first came out of the tube, followed closely by Lin Xiao.

After coming out, the few people could probably see through the faint light that this was a dark stone tunnel, which was high enough for an adult to stand up.Very close to here, Lockhart was getting up from the ground, covered in mud, his face was as pale as a ghost, and he looked a little weak.

"We must be miles beneath the school," Harry said first.

"Probably at the bottom of the Black Lake." Ron guessed.He squinted his eyes and carefully looked at the dark, sticky walls around him.

Next to them, Lin Xiao and Hermione looked at each other, took out their wands at the same time, and whispered, "Flashing fluorescent light!"

Seeing what they were doing, Harry and Lockhart also made their wands glow white after a spell.

As for Ron, he didn't have the courage to use the wand again. He had been tormented enough during this period, and he was afraid of causing any trouble again.

"Let's go quickly, children." Lockhart said fearfully, this time he was willing to risk it all.

At this time, he was constantly praying in his heart not to encounter any danger, otherwise he would temporarily interrupt this great adventure.

The five people stepped carefully on the wet ground, but they still made a loud sound.It was so dark in the tunnel that their vision was restricted and they could only see a small area in front of them.The light from the wand cast their shadows on the damp wall, making them look like monsters.

The whole tunnel seemed silent, and then they heard an unexpected sound, click. Several people turned around and saw that Ron had stepped on a mouse skull.

Harry lowered his wand and examined the ground beneath his feet. He was surprised to see the bones of small animals scattered around.Lockhart took the lead and continued forward, turning a dark bend in the tunnel.

"Boys, look there's something there..." Lockhart said in a trembling voice.

The four people suddenly stood still and stared. Among them, only Lin Xiao was not surprised. It was just a large snake shed.

Lin Xiao picked up the wand and shined it in front of his eyes. Under the tiny light, they saw the outline of a coiled giant, lying motionless on the other side of the tunnel.

"I guess he may be asleep. We'd better not disturb him." Lockhart said with a pale face. He already regretted finding any bullshit secret room.

Hermione was so frightened that she quickly grabbed Lin Xiao's arm and hid behind him.

Harry looked at the behemoth, his heart was beating fast, and he felt a dull pain in his chest. He cast his eyes vaguely on Lin Xiao, who nodded to indicate that there were bodyguards there, so there was no need to worry.

After confirming that the two professors were really following them, Harry tried to calm down and squinted his eyes as small as possible while still being able to see.

When the three of them gradually became more courageous, they picked up their wands and shined forward. They saw the light shining on a huge snake skin, which looked green and alive. It was obviously a venomous snake that was shedding its skin.

At this time, the huge snake slough was lying coiled on the dark tunnel floor. It was difficult to imagine that the snake that had just shed this layer of skin was at least twenty feet long.

"Oh my gosh, it's so big." Ron sighed feebly.

At this moment, there was a sudden movement behind them. It was Gilderoy Lockhart, who was about to sneak away.

Lin Xiao, who was already staring, pointed his wand at Lockhart and said quickly, "Expelliarmus!"

Lockhart was knocked back a few steps and collapsed to the ground. His wand flew high in the air, and Hermione behind Lin Xiao used a levitating spell to take it away.

Harry and Ron turned around and saw the disarmed Lockhart collapsed on the ground. Ron asked doubtfully, "What happened to him?"

"I think he should say it himself, right, Professor Lockhart!" Lin Xiao said meaningfully. He did not mention anything about Lockhart specifically to the three of them, but Hermione knew a lot.

"Oh, yes, kids, I think we can end this adventure early," Lockhart didn't understand Lin Xiao's meaning. He stood up, patted the dust on his body, and said to himself.

"Do you want to escape?" A flash of inspiration flashed through Harry's mind and he said in disbelief, "But you wrote so many great things about yourself in the book, and it was the secret room you brought us to?"

"Books can be deceiving," said Lockhart slyly.

"You wrote it!" Harry exclaimed.

"My dear boy," Lockhart frowned and looked at Harry, while quietly moving to the side of the surprised Ron, "use your common sense and think about it. If you don't let people think that I did those things Yes, how can I sell my books..."

"Oh, also, of course I found out about the secret room by checking the information myself. You have to know that I need to make so many preparations..." Lockhart shamelessly said that the information Lin Xiao revealed to him was own.

"So you want to sort out your targets in advance, get close to them, and then find a way to charge everything others do to your own account?" Harry asked in disbelief.

Even Hermione heard it and felt ashamed of what Lockhart had done.

Suddenly, she noticed Lockhart's little movement, and quickly pulled Lin Xiao to tell him to look there. The latter reassured her, quietly pointed at Ron's wand, and made a gesture.
