There are many versions of the myth about Medusa, and the widely circulated version is like this——

According to legend, Medusa is the daughter of the sea god Forcus. She has a pretty face but blue-faced fangs, and her hair is made of countless wriggling blue poisonous snakes. She is covered with snake scales and has a pair of golden wings. Those who look at each other with beautiful amber pupils will immediately turn into stone... Because Medusa, whose eyes once killed her beloved man, has always suffered from the existence of her eyes, while the folks Passing on her as a vicious and ferocious banshee, Perseus, the son of Zeus, believed it was true under the instigation of interested people, and used a shield made of a special craft as a mirror to find Medusa. In an opportunistic way, Medusa looked into his eyes through the mirror reflection of the shield. Medusa petrified herself, and was finally put down by Perseus and dedicated to the goddess Athena. The head is fixed on his shield, turning the shield into a weapon.

The key point in the whole myth is that Medusa saw her own eyes in the mirror and petrified herself.

Scorpius thought that was probably what Draco was trying to say.

Scorpius is not very optimistic about this idea. There is only one Perseus who has become a hero. Now that he has changed his eyes into snake eyes that can only feel heat, the harmful eyes of the basilisk will be right. He doesn't work anymore, so by the same token, the eyes of the basilisk may not have any surprising effect on itself...

But because asking the earth spirit to be upper body is a completely different concept from a complete transformation, compared to using magic to turn one's eyes into snake eyes, inviting the earth spirit is more like borrowing the eyes of a nearby snake to isolate itself from the basilisk , if there is such an innocent snake within a radius of a hundred miles at this moment that has died because of this...

So for Draco's proposal, Scorpius' opinion is: you might as well give it a try.

After all, if a mirror spell could fix it all...

That would be a little easier.

Scorpius turned his head to look at Draco, and was not surprised to find that His Royal Highness Prince Slytherin was next to him at this moment. He was motionless and silent, as if he had made up his mind. Before making a move, you must concentrate on listening to any sound even if a needle falls on the ground around you...

Even though Draco was just a mass of red light in Scorpius' eyes at this moment, Scorpius felt that he saw the completely tense back of the other party. Once he became tense, he would squeeze into a straight line lips, and the pale hand that gripped the wand tightly, as if grasping a life-saving straw.

Scorpius fumbled to cover the back of the opponent's hand with his own.

Under the palm, he could almost feel the blue veins protruding from the tightness on the back of the opponent's hand.

"Relax, Draco," Scorpius found his voice terribly hoarse as he spoke, and if it wasn't for the fact that there was an almost terrified young man waiting for him to comfort him, he would almost have Shut your mouth so as not to continue to make such a terrible sound, "It's just a mirror spell, just try it, if it doesn't work, we'll find another way—"

Scorpius was interrupted by the other party before he finished speaking.

"—I think we can do it."

After a long silence, Scorpius smiled, lowered his voice and said softly, "I think so too."

Then they began to prepare for action.

From the beginning to the end, Scorpius did not remove his hand from the back of Draco's hand, and this time he did not imitate the previous behavior and verbally indicate where they should aim. He leaned against Draco Drac was behind him, holding him close to him in an almost half-hug, and he pressed his back against his chest, their hands holding Draco's hawthorn wand together—

"You're cold as hell." Draco murmured while shivering, but even though he said so, he didn't break himself away from the arms of the senior Slytherin behind him.

"I'll warm up when this is over." Scorpius sneered, bending over slightly, his chin touching Draco's soft platinum blonde hair that smelled of his familiar shampoo, "Okay, get ready Yet?"

A slight itching on the chin.

It's like the feeling of grass sweeping across the skin.

Scorpius guessed that the platinum noble who was leaning against him at this moment nodded lightly—he licked his somewhat dry lower lip, and moved his lip as close as possible to Draco's possible ear, At the same time, his back, with Draco's hand, who couldn't see anything at the moment, pointed straight at the place with the most water on the ground...

"We've got to get that water up in the air."

As soon as Scorpius finished speaking, he heard Draco's voice almost at the same time——

"Wingardium Leviosa (floating)."

At first, it seemed that the entire pond was boiling, and the entire water surface seemed to be turbulent, and then they slowly rose from the ground maintaining the appearance of a puddle of water, floating in the air between the two Slytherins and the basilisk , the basilisk seemed to be a little curious about this, and its head also slightly lifted up, and later it aimed at the direction of the pool of water——

"It's now!"

"epentefitSpeculum (conversion specular) -!"

In a blurred vision, Scorpius could only see an extremely powerful beam of white light rushing out of the hawthorn wand in his and Draco's hands, and that strong beam of white light caused the basilisk to "hiss" uneasy At the same time, it hit the puddle of water accurately, and the liquid that was still flowing was instantly condensed into an ice surface, and the thick ice surface shone with white light and became more and more transparent, finally forming a A gigantic, flawless mirror stands between the Slytherins and the basilisk!

The basilisk who was still curiously staring at the floating water in the last second couldn't dodge, and stared majestically at his own pair of big amber eyes like light bulbs in the mirror that suddenly appeared, Scorpius held his breath subconsciously breathe--

However, it is disappointing that the basilisk did not petrify.

I saw it making a "hissing" sound, which stopped in Scorpius' ears and became a fragmented "shredded declaration". It raised its huge tail high, and hit the mirror in midair with one blow. Slapped to pieces, Scottie and Draco fled to one side in embarrassment to avoid glass shards, and both fell into the dirty stagnant water with splashes——

The basilisk approached quickly, the sharp teeth approached, and the ticking venom burned a corner of Scorpius' robe at this time—in desperation, Scorpius made a movement that he himself did not expect—just In a blink of an eye, he firmly protected the platinum nobleman in his arms under his body, turned around by himself, and after thinking about it, he directly grabbed one of the basilisk's fangs with both hands!

The venom-secreting snake teeth were close to the skin, and the air was cold, and the venom quickly eroded the palm of the senior Slytherin, bringing a searing pain!

"Ahhhhhhhhh-"

Gritting his back molars, he pushed the giant basilisk head half a meter away. At this moment, Scorpius only felt that the historical trajectory was bullshit, and they were about to explain it here——

But at this moment, just when Scorpius thought they had failed!

The basilisk suddenly became weird——

After being grabbed by Scorpius, it didn't continue to attack, but it didn't stop the tendency of frantically writhing. On the contrary, it twitched and writhed as if it was suffering something painful. The painful "snoring" sound was made again, and at the same time, strangely colored blood gushed out from its good eye, and the other eye that was hit by Draco's marking spell also slowed down. Slowly flowing out of blood——those big amber eyes in front of Scorpius are like a blown water balloon that shrank suddenly, and at the same time made a "sizzling" sound accompanied by a There was a wisp of white smoke, and a few seconds later, there were only two black holes in the place where the amber eyeballs were originally, and thick snake blood was continuously flowing out!

The stinky venom, snake saliva and blood splashed all over Scorpius!

He could hear the venom slowly trickling down his weakened arm, making a horrible, corrosive sound as it flowed through his clothes.

He shook, and just when he thought he was about to fall to the ground, suddenly, a pair of extremely powerful arms stretched out from behind him, firmly fixed him in his arms, and dragged him away from the snake The strange attack range, a familiar breath rushed into the tip of the nose, the black-haired Slytherin was slightly taken aback, and even thought that he was hallucinating before dying...

With the invasion of venom, the spell on the upper body of the spirit is gradually becoming invalid——

His body temperature is returning to that of a normal person, which makes it easy for him to feel how firm and warm the chest holding him from behind him is. The corresponding position on the high side can feel the strong heartbeat of the other party...

He was slightly taken aback, and before he even had time to figure out what the sudden height difference symbolized, everything in front of him gradually became clear——

Everything looked like it had been turned into a silent black and white movie.

Scorpius only had time to see a beam of extremely powerful black light flying out of his ear. This scene seemed familiar. He had seen such a beam of light like hitting a basilisk not far away before. as if hitting another mad witch—

The ray of light exploded, and the huge vine plant familiar in memory broke through from the cold bluestone brick floor of the basement. The vine branches sprouted rapidly, and the branches wrapped around the body of the basilisk. Stunning bloodstains were scratched on the hard snake scales——

The basilisk was writhing crazily and struggling.

However, the vines that were thicker than it seemed to form a huge cage, completely imprisoning it.

At the top of the vine, the huge white flower buds trembled slightly, and then "popped", like epiphyllums blooming layer by layer. When the flowers bloomed to the extreme, the flowers were bigger than the head of the basilisk, revealing the bright yellow color inside. stamens.

Scorpius stared blankly at the scene not far away.

There seemed to be the sound of Draco yelling, the roar of Dumbledore's phoenix, or the painful roar of the basilisk "hissing" and the deafening noise of its tail hitting the ground, but this At this moment, the snake venom invaded, but the exhausted Scorpius had no time to think too much, and slowly closed his eyes tiredly, everything around him suddenly fell into darkness, as if the world was plunged into darkness.
