Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

318. Chapter 316 Parseltongue and hidden secrets

    That's right, this is the statue of Salazar Slytherin himself.

    Surrounded by a silver band of light, he held a wand in his hand, and the wand's tip tilted down slightly, as if casting magic, and his face was extraordinarily serious.

    Unlike the Slytherin statue Ivan had seen before, this statue is neither the old dragon in the chamber, with a long beard, like an old monkey like the old Slytherin. It is not handsome, calm and calm, everything is in the middle age, but in the boyhood is Slytherin.

    He even went back to the millennium more than Ivan, and the Slytherin he saw was younger. When he finished the statue, Salazar was about the same age as Ivan.

    Or slightly larger, probably around fifteen or six.

    At the top of the statue, in addition to Junxiu, the solemn expression is more of a sense of flamboyance and an indescribable temperament.

    It is like a sword that is unsheathed, with a cold, extra sharp.

    "The noble and immortal Slatlin, attaching importance to lineage and honor, they judge the situation, protect the body, and win the battle…"Ivan couldn't help but say softly.

    Although it is only a stone sculpture of Salazar in a young age, it perfectly reflects the qualities that Slytherin has long regarded.

    Even those who are biased against this college have to admit it.

    Ivan looked at the statue carefully. He looked like Tom Riddle in his school days. He had black jade-like hair and was thin and thin, but he was more confident and full of the unique atmosphere of the medieval aristocracy.

    To say in common, it is the two people's mouths with a cold smile.

    Ivan didn't know what Voldemort had seen when he saw his ancestors. From the current situation, he hasn't come to this hole. This is very similar to Voldemort's style. He thinks he has mastered everything and disdains. Go deeper into the magical creature and the wizard of muggle heritage that he looks down upon.

    But in fact, he missed a lot of valuable things.

    Ivan looked around carefully, and under the traction of Acromantula behind him, he slowly landed at the foot of the giant Slytherin's statue.

    Like the secret room, the ground is paved with cyan marble.

    Under the thick dust, the marble is engraved with dark gold and colorful ornaments, silently telling the glory of the past.

    In addition, there are all kinds of stone fragments on the ground.

    Ivan moved forward and raised the wand high.

    He found himself standing in the middle of a wide circular underground hall. The decoration in the room was not destroyed by Acromantula.

    The silver-white floats are scattered from the sky, like a little starlight, scattered on the Slytherin's statue and the huge stone pillars around it.

    In the quiet, empty hall, only he stood alone here.

    The faint fluorescence emitted by the wand's tip in Ivan's hand seems so small in the dark, and the stone carvings that have remained unchanged for nearly a thousand years seem to have stagnated.

    In the repressed silence, he can clearly feel the existence of time.

    By the light of wand, not far from Slytherin's feet, he saw a huge stone altar filled with text, and Ivan walked over to see it.

    Like the surrounding decorations and walls, the altar was also broken into pieces by the Acromantula, leaving only a huge base.

    He picked up a slightly larger wreck and took it in his hands to observe it. The text engraved on it was very weird.

    这是Ivan seemed to think of something and hurriedly flipped the Slytherin's locket hanging on his chest.

    All of them are symbols that are twisted like snakes. They are all words. Ivan studied the text on the Slytherin locket for a long time and looked for a lot of books related to the ancient era magic pattern, but did not find any information related to it.

    However, in the ancient astrology books, he found some clues.

    In the center of the locket, the lines engraved around the green gemstones are all symbols and visual azimuths of the ancient astrologists. These symbols relate to the astrological knowledge of the relative angles of the planets and their relationship to each other.

    Because it is too esoteric, Ivan is still studying.

    As for the other inscriptions on the locket, he has not made any progress.

    But Ivan got a hint of inspiration from the text on the broken stone altar and the surrounding scene. Salazar Slytherin's most famous trait is Parseltongue, so these unrecognized words may need to be recognized by Parseltongue, just follow Ancient English grammar…

    He tried to read it, and the strange sound in his mouth didn't make any sense, but it sounded exactly the same as when Harry used Parseltongue.

    "Yes, that's it, I should have thought of it!"Ivan clenched his fists. "Salazar Slytherin's left behind These quirky words are definitely related to Parseltongue. I actually spent a few months searching for the ancient magic that has been handed down around the world."

    He hurriedly collected all the broken stones and put them in their pockets. When they were ready to go back and restore them to their original appearance, let Harry look at them. Maybe they could make a breakthrough and know why Slytherin left a ruin here. .

    And the old words above the locket, Ivan remembered the girl named Elaine Slytherin's Vampire, and she mentioned the prophecy…

    When he collects all the stones, he calms down and continues to move forward.

    In the empty hall, only Ivan's footsteps echoed in the darkness, and he walked forward for about five minutes in the direction of the Slytherin statue wand.

    In front of him is a huge stone door. Ivan saw in this dream of this stone door that the decoration and crack are exactly the same. He remembers that behind the door is the monster, the secret that has hidden for nearly a thousand years. And the huge blood red eyes…

    Ivan was wary and the stone door was not opened.

    The door is engraved with two intertwined snakes with large, shines like starlight emeralds in their eyes.

    It is very similar to the two snakes above the gate of the castle's inner chamber, but the style of the two snakes looks more simple, just like the shrinking of the basilisk.

    If Harry is here, you can use the Parseltongue command to open the stone door with two snakes.

    Ivan couldn't do this, but there should be another entrance, and he took the Aragog's bottle out of the package.

    "Aragog, I have come to the underground ruins, standing in front of a huge stone door that is closed, how can I get in from here?"

    "Follow my child, Hagrid's friend! In accordance with the command of that voice, we opened an entrance on the distant wall. ”Hey, Aragog said weakly, "Just there, we will take the captured prey from the crack to the inside…"
