[HP] Aunt of the Savior

"This snake is probably twenty feet long..." After calming down, Hermione estimated the snake's length from the skin, and looked at Harry hesitantly, "Harry, maybe we should tell the professor that this is beyond It's beyond our capabilities..."

"Oh, indeed, yes..." Harry was so excited by Hermione's words that he almost cheered inwardly.He finally found a logical reason for them to go back.

But Draco strongly opposed this approach: "No, absolutely not, this matter must not be let the professors know now." He glanced at the chicken coop that Ron was carrying now, forcibly restraining his fear . "We...we have these cocks, don't we?"

Now there was nothing he could do but join Harry Potter in killing the basilisk.He must not let the Malfoy family and the Chamber of Secrets get involved!

Disappointed, Harry couldn't help but glared at Draco angrily, turned around and continued to direct the poor rooster to explore the way ahead.They turned one corner after another and finally stood in front of a wall.Carved on the wall were two intertwined snakes, whose eyes were stunningly large and beautiful emeralds.

"Wow." Ron exclaimed, but immediately let out an unnatural cough when he met Draco's scornful and mocking gaze, his ears turning as red as his hair.

"Open." Harry knew exactly what to do this time, and he ordered again in that horrible voice.

The two entangled snakes parted, and the wall split open in the middle, creating a passage.

"Be careful, everyone." This time, even Harry, who had always been calmer than others, felt his body tremble a little.Just the thought of the terrifying creature appearing at any moment made the children gasp with tension.

It was a rectangular room filled with dim green light. Many tall stone pillars stood on both sides of the room, propping up the ceiling into the darkness that they couldn't see at all. The stone pillars were all carved with huge snakes, and they were carved in different shapes. The posture hovers on the stone pillar, and it looks like it can come alive.The black shadows of the stone pillars reflected on the floor, originally looked like motionless black snakes.

"I..." Draco's eyes were a little dazed, as if he lost focus. "I seem to have been here before..."

He quickened his pace suddenly, as if sleepwalking, and Harry and the others followed immediately.The sound of the children's chaotic footsteps reverberating through the empty room was a source of stress in itself.

Unknowingly, their footsteps seemed to soften, and they also walked to the deepest part of the room.On the wall in the deepest part of the room, a person is carved, as if stuck to the wall.The person carved by this statue seems to be an old wizard.

Harry tilted his neck, almost as if looking at the sky, to see the man's face.He wasn't very good-looking, and his skin, wrinkled with age, made him look like a monkey with a long beard and a wizard's robe.But his eyes gave people a gloomy and terrifying feeling.

"It's the statue of Slytherin..." Draco seemed to regain consciousness suddenly when he saw the statue of Slytherin.But his face looked like a ghost, white and transparent, without a trace of blood, and he looked almost weak and was about to fall down.

"Let's get the cock out!" Harry said, staring at Draco for a moment, frowning.He had already heard the sound of the basilisk, which seemed to have vented its territory.

They hurriedly released the roosters from the cages and drove them to every corner of the room—they got all his roosters from Hagrid, but due to Draco's "chicken killing operation" before, Hagrid only had these four or five left.

Hermione swung her wand, said a spell that Draco had never heard before, and then explained with a proud look: "This spell will make these cocks start crowing after a while, I found it in the book with great difficulty. "

Draco kept repeating the word Mudblood over and over in his head to keep himself from asking where Hermione found such a weird and interesting spell*.

"I don't know how you found this spell." Ron said Draco's question as a complaint, sounding like he didn't expect an answer at all.

"Let's go now, temporarily seal the secret passage, and wait for a while to see the situation."

Hermione was about to answer Ron's question, but was interrupted by Harry.She couldn't help but glanced at Harry, and always felt that he seemed to have an unexplainable uneasiness, his expression was like...worried about someone.

The cock was already crowing because of Hermione's spell.The crowing sounds of several roosters echoed in the secret room, and the noise was unbearably loud.

They almost ran out of the pillared chamber, Draco, who looked frail, at the end.However, it was only after everyone had come out that Harry softly said "Shut up", and the two snakes with green gemstone eyes circled together again, and the split wall returned to its original position.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief because they didn't see the basilisk, only Harry still looked nervous.He walked last, without saying a word.

Just as the children were about to turn the first corner, the disturbed crowing of the noisy people that they could still hear just now suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a huge smashing sound they had never heard before. A loud sound on the ground or on the wall.

Harry's face finally changed completely, and he said to everyone in a hurry: "I...I have to go back now, you go out now, find the professors, tell them what happened here, and ask them to help!

"Harry, what about you?"

"I have to go back, the door just now can't stop the basilisk! Remember how it can be opened? The basilisk can open it! Only I have a Parseltongue!" Harry said resolutely, turned around and ran, While running, he shouted: "You go to someone for help, find Professor McGonagall, find Professor Dumbledore, go!"

"Harry!" Ron glanced at Harry's back, bit his lip, forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, and pushed Hermione and Neville. "You go first, I have to help Harry."

But Neville shook his head: "Hermione, you go to the professors, I have to go back too, I'm a boy."

"Ron! Neville!" Looking at Ron and Neville, Hermione almost cried.

"What are you idiots still delaying?!" Draco, who was most eager to leave at first, felt uncomfortable all over. Many people are pissed off. "Are you going to wait for the basilisk to come out and eat us as snacks?"

"Go, go!" Ron urged Hermione. "It's up to you, Hermione!"

Hermione wiped her tears with the back of her hand, nodded bravely, turned around and ran towards the exit desperately.Ron and Neville looked at each other and went after Harry.

Draco stood where he was, looked at Ron and Neville who ran back desperately, and then looked at Hermione.He felt that his mind was not clear enough. He knew that he didn't want to stay, but for some reason, he still chose to run back with Ron and Neville.

However, Harry seemed to have made full preparations to prevent the basilisk from running out and hurting people. The wall was closed now, and none of them could speak Parseltongue, so they couldn't get in.

"Damn it!" Ron anxiously moved his ear to the wall, wanting to hear what was going on inside.But the voice from inside only made him have a worse premonition. "Let me see, how did Harry say that word just now..."

Ron was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't even notice that Draco staggered towards him.He leaned against the wall, his face was almost pressed against the snake sculpture on the wall, watching Ron sweating profusely as he kept trying Parseltongue. "Weasley, get out of the way."

"Horse, Malfoy?" Ron was taken aback.He stared at Draco warily, "Why?"

"Open this door." Draco's voice was very soft, and it sounded very different from usual.

"Can you open it now?!" Ron and Neville's expressions changed.

Harry had no idea what was going on outside the door, he only knew that he must not leave Professor Snape alone in that chamber to face the basilisk!He's a Parseltongue, and he's sure to help!

Yes, the reason why Harry is so confident about this trip to the Chamber of Secrets is because he has already told Professor Snape everything, and he also handed over the black leather diary to Professor Snape Li - after all, that thing is very dangerous.

As Harry and the others analyzed, this diary is indeed dangerous.When Harry handed it to Professor Snape, Snape's expression changed instantly.He nervously asked Harry if he had ever used the diary, or kept it with him for a long time.

Under Snape's usual majesty and skillful questioning, Harry told almost all the facts he had heard from Draco and analyzed by himself and his friends.The plan to eliminate the basilisk was also first proposed by Professor Snape.Of course, the main implementer of this plan appeared to be Harry on the surface, even including inviting Malfoy to join.But it is not.

In this plan, the only thing Harry decided was to choose to enter the Chamber of Secrets today.

From the moment Harry came to the girls' bathroom, Snape had cast the Disillusionment Charm on himself, and he was wearing Harry's invisibility cloak just to be on the safe side.And what even Harry didn't know was that Jody used this method too, staying with the children all the time.

After the Chamber of Secrets opened, the first one to slide down the passage was not the cock thrown by Harry, but Snape.And Jody stayed at the end to protect everyone-if Jody hadn't cast a spell from behind in time, the chicken coop in Neville's hand would have caused Ron to be injured before he saw the basilisk.

If it weren't for the need for Harry's Parseltongue to help open the Chamber of Secrets, Jody and Snape would never have chosen to take Harry to such a place for adventure anyway.Before coming to the Chamber of Secrets, Snape specifically told Harry to just leave those roosters and Draco Malfoy in the end, and take his Gryffindor friends who liked to join in the fun as far as possible. That's enough - oh, and while Jody is grateful that the kids are friends with Harry, she's going to say that insisting on this risky adventure here with Harry is just... so imprudent .

But Jody realized that she should have understood a long time ago that things are always difficult to develop in the direction people expected. This was her plan in the past, and this is the case with this secret room operation-Harry actually took Draco away ? !

"Harry Potter!" Snape's voice almost came through his teeth, exasperated by Harry's self-assertion.

You must know that the diary has been using the conversation with Draco to absorb his vitality to strengthen itself.For Jody and Snape, who wanted to study Horcruxes and Soul Tablets, it was simply an excellent opportunity to experiment.

On the way to the secret room, they already felt that the breath of the diary or the magic power was getting stronger due to being close to Draco again.If Voldemort in the diary has no problem with his intelligence, he will definitely use the basilisk in the secret room to help him capture more of Draco's vitality after arriving in the secret room, so as to achieve the purpose of resurrection.And this process is a good opportunity for Snape and Jody to experiment.

In order to ensure that Harry could bring Draco, Snape even gave Harry a plan on how to convince a Malfoy!

Of course, it seemed like Draco was taking a risk by doing so, but just destroying the Horcruxes would solve Draco's problem immediately.And what they hope to find is some kind of thinking opportunity to expel, or completely destroy, those soul fragments protected by black magic without harming the Horcrux.It was undoubtedly for Harry's sake, but Harry himself had ruined it all.

"I don't know if Harry understands why we let Malfoy stay." Jody stared at the closed wall, sighed, and comforted his lover: "Maybe the 'observation Draco' you used at that time The excuse of being able to control the basilisk' is too lame. Is that why Harry is worried about leaving Draco Malfoy in the Chamber of Secrets?"

"Harry is too soft-hearted, it's not good for him," Snape said, frowning.Although he felt that little Malfoy didn't have such deep scheming to lie to Harry about the Chamber of Secrets, it didn't mean he couldn't see the trick that Draco had in mind when he confessed to Harry.He'd hoped this would improve the obviously very Gryffindor Harry Potter a bit.If Draco and Ron didn't understand how to make an unbreakable oath correctly and completely, Harry would definitely be imprisoned by Draco's oath and bring him endless troubles.

"Although I want to say that this is Harry's strength, I also think you are right..." Jody smiled wryly, and stretched out his hand to pinch the diary in his pocket. "However, today we must eliminate the basilisk. Everyone has been lucky enough to be petrified so far. If the basilisk continues to live, I'm not sure if it will continue to be so lucky in the future. "

Although they had been talking, their vigilance was getting higher and higher. The two stood back to back, and while guarding the front, they entrusted the safety of their backs to each other with peace of mind.

In order to deal with the basilisk, they also wear anti-demon glasses on their faces-of course, Jody deformed the glasses and its shape is not as exaggerated as Harry's.When Harry took out those glasses, Snape, who had snorted at first, found that although they looked stupid and ridiculous, they were indeed very conceived and practical, with some ancient runes and magic circles added to them.

Jody, who is good at magic circles, finally strengthened all Harry's glasses before returning them to Harry through Snape. Although it cannot guarantee that the person wearing glasses will not be affected by the basilisk's stare, it is better than Muggle cameras. Lenses are used a lot.

It seems that Mr. Lovegood's head is not full of crazy ideas - this kind of knowledge has caused Snape to have a serious prejudice against Ravenclaw because of a certain blonde wizard in the past year. A little restrained.

Jody had just spelled the cocks under control, ready to use them as weapons when the basilisk appeared, when the mouth of the Salazar Slytherin sculpture suddenly opened and turned into a black hole.At this moment, Snape and Jody clearly saw a vague figure like a ghost standing in front of the sculpture, seeming to be reciting some spell in a low voice.

After the opening of the hole was opened, the youth with a vague figure turned around suddenly, squinting his eyes and searching the room like a hunting snake, "Who is it? I know you are there."

Riddle looked in the direction of Jody and Snape, but they were silent, neither of them spoke, their eyes were fixed on the ground, avoiding the eyes of themselves and the basilisk, and at the same time, they searched the room desperately with their ears .What they are waiting for is now, the moment when the soul film releases the basilisk. Only in this way can this monster that has been hiding in Hogwarts for thousands of years be completely wiped out.

After waiting for a while without seeing anyone responding, Riddle seemed to lose his patience. He turned his head and looked at the cocks with contemptuous eyes. "Stupid, really stupid. Do you think Salazar Slytherin's basilisk can really be killed by a rooster in one fell swoop? A small spell can block the cock's crowing from the basilisk for a short time until it swallows those cocks."

Riddle was certainly not bluffing.The roosters began to crow desperately, but the basilisk still crawled out of the hole.Its huge body smashed to the floor, almost like causing a small earthquake.

"Destroy all living creatures in this room." Riddle hissed, commanding the basilisk. "Swallow those cocks that threaten you first, I'm still weak...power can't last long..."

"Yes...Master..." The basilisk responded with the same strange voice.

Hearing the basilisk's voice, Snape seized the opportunity and shot the Eye Sickness Curse in the direction of the basilisk.This is one of the most effective spells against monsters, no matter how powerful the creature, its eyes are very fragile.And the eyes of the basilisk are the most dangerous, so Snape specially made slight adjustments to the Eye Sickness Curse, adding some elements of black magic to make it more powerful.

Seeing the basilisk chasing Snape, Jody was terrified. Now that Draco was away, Jody didn't plan to take the risk of doing research according to their original plan.She dropped the diary on the ground, and held out her wand, ready to unleash Fiendfyer, the single most powerful dark magic flame capable of destroying a Horcrux.

But at this moment, the wall that had been tightly closed before suddenly cracked open, and Harry stumbled in from the outside, and the door closed tightly behind him.He lowered his head, making a hissing sound. "Stop! Stop!"

"Damn Potter!" Snape cursed silently in his heart when he saw Harry running back again and knew exactly what he was thinking.

"Another Parseltongue?!" Riddle was obviously attracted by Harry, and even the basilisk was not so flexible without Riddle's guidance. "Who are you……"

He didn't have a chance to say any more, and Jody, who was anxious to solve everything, had set fire to the diary with Fiendfire.Riddle let out a shrill scream, struggling desperately, chanting words.

Snape, who had just taken the opportunity to blind the basilisk's eyes with the Eye Sickness Curse, had no time to breathe a sigh of relief when he found the door opened by Draco.He lost consciousness while opening the door.

And Riddle, whose body was still very transparent just now, became solid in an instant. Jody did not waver because of this, but continued to control the diary without giving up, even though she knew that this boy was the future The adult Dark Lord, she also doesn't think this 16-year-old soul piece can fight Fiendfire without a body.Sure enough, Riddle was just struggling to reflect the light, and soon, as the flame burned the diary into a mass of ashes, the ghost-like Riddle also disappeared.

Jody finally heaved a sigh of relief, and then cast the counter-curse, taking back the dangerous Fiendfire.

Although Tom Riddle disappeared, the newly blind Basilisk was still struggling frantically in the room.It used its sense of smell to sense the creatures in the room, successfully swallowed the roosters in the room, and then rushed towards Ron, Neville who had just broken into the secret room, and Draco who had just passed out for a moment.

"Stop! Stop!" Harry hurriedly yelled desperately in Parseltongue.But the basilisk, which had just lost the control of its real master, only remembered the last order: swallow all living creatures here.Harry's Parseltongue could not control the basilisk at all.At this moment, the ones closest to it happened to be Draco who had just barged in, and Harry who rushed in front of them trying to stop the basilisk with Parseltongue.

Harry's Parseltongue failed to stop the basilisk from moving, and the basilisk opened its mouth wide open, spewing out clusters of disgusting stench from its mouth.But now, even Draco, who was usually the most delicate, didn't bother to find fault with the smell.That's nothing when lives are at stake.

Jody shot the spell desperately and rushed in Harry's direction, but she was too far away from them, which made her eyes full of despair.For a moment, she almost thought she could see the horror of the ghastly basilisk biting Harry and the others to pieces.

Snape on the other side even shot black magic spells while in chaos, but the basilisk has a natural strong resistance to spells, and those magics that are enough to kill people seem to be harmless to it.

Just when everyone was almost desperate, a burst of ethereal music suddenly came from the sky, which made people feel that it could lift up their courage and spirit.Immediately afterwards, it was as if the sun had smashed into this room from the sky, and a ball of flames fell from the air to the children in front of them—oh, no, that was not a ball of flames, it was a big golden-red bird, and its Grabbing the tattered Sorting Hat in its claws, it dropped it on Harry's head.

Then, to everyone's surprise, Harry drew a silver sword with a ruby ​​the size of an egg on the hilt from the battered hat.When he got the sword, Harry seemed to know what to do, aimed at the big mouth of the basilisk, and threw the sword out.

The silver sword flew into the mouth of the basilisk like a flash of red lightning. The basilisk emitted a stench from its mouth and let out an earth-shattering hiss.Warm snake blood gushed out of its big mouth, like a rain of blood on the children's heads.

"Close your mouth and eyes! Don't let snake blood splash into your mouth or eyes, the blood of the basilisk is also poisonous." Before the children had time to breathe a sigh of relief, they suddenly heard someone reminding them loudly, Hurry up and do it obediently.

When the snake fell heavily on the floor, the children opened their eyes and found that the person who reminded them just now was actually Professor Snape.He strode out from behind Harry and the others, with a gloomy and frightening expression.

Snape deliberately pretended not to know anything, frowned and looked around the room, and then showed a malicious smile: "You better think about how to explain what happened today."

Ron shivered, Neville looked like he was about to faint, Draco fell into a pool of blood and maintained a strange posture, and Harry stood there awkwardly, not even daring to look Snape's eyes.The Sorting Hat was still on Harry's head, and the Sorting Hat seemed very dissatisfied with being drenched in snake blood, and was moaning and protesting.

Snape walked around behind them when he reminded them to close their eyes just now, pretending that he just appeared now, and he didn't even forget to cast a cleansing spell on himself to cover up that he was also involved in the basilisk's just now. The traces of fierce fighting and the snake blood sticking to his body.

Not far away, Jody fell silently to the ground. The feeling of extreme tension and despair and sudden relief made her completely unable to move now.Let Severus handle the next thing!Jody watched Snape make sure that all four children were safe and sound, and then led them out of the tunnel, and finally couldn't help but lay down on the floor.

—it was the worst Valentine's Day of her life!

And this day was like a dream for Harry, Ron, Neville and Draco.A few minutes ago, they were almost swallowed by the basilisk for snacks. A few minutes later, they were brought back to the girls' bathroom by a phoenix. Unlike before they left, each of them was now dirty. It was filthy, covered in blood and silt from underground pipes, and smelled disgusting.

Snape didn't seem to care about it at all, he was the last to watch them get out of here.This displeased Myrtle, who was eager to greet them.

Harry and the others had just walked out of the girls' bathroom when they bumped into Lupine who was running over anxiously.Harry would never forget the expression on Lupine's face when he saw Harry covered in blood. He never thought that Lupine, who was always gentle and calm, could look so anxious and angry.

"Harry, you...are you injured?" Lupine's heart sank as he looked at the boys covered in blood. "I'll take you to the school hospital."

Lupine saw Harry's adventure on the Marauder's Map.At first he thought that Harry and the others were doing some prank in that bathroom and Snape and Jody had discovered it, but when he came back from class and found that the names were still standing there for a long time, he immediately realized Things were not as he thought at first, so he hurried over to take a look.As a result, the scene in front of him almost made his heart stop.Lupine didn't expect that he would hurt Harry one after another in school, and the extent of his self-blame at this moment was beyond Harry's imagination.

"No. Professor Lupine, it's not my blood." Harry hurriedly explained, and at the same time glanced at the black figure who had been silent all the time with some guilt.

Just when the atmosphere was very embarrassing, a group of dwarfs with golden wings behind their backs sullenly led a group of watching students to the door of the bathroom.

The laughing crowd immediately fell silent when they saw the blood stains on Harry and the others.Harry suspected that they hadn't fled in panic simply because there were two professors there.

But those dwarves didn't care about the scene in front of them at all, and one of the dwarves took the lead and took a step forward, "Harry Potter, I have a Valentine's Day wish from your soundtrack!"

He cleared his throat and plucked the harp before Harry knew how to react, "His eyes are as green as a freshly pickled toad..."

The song and the horrible lyrics made Harry feel like he was going to blush.

The moment the dwarves started singing, the tense and frightening atmosphere in the hallway became even weirder.Finally, after unknown who led the suppressed laughter, the laughter seemed to be contagious, and everyone laughed.In the end, even Harry himself laughed.

——He and his friends are still alive, and they are still standing here. Whether it is listening to others laughing or laughing, it is such a lucky thing!
