Chapter 126 Seven Secret Chambers
After leaving the History of Magic classroom, Xie Lin suddenly felt the eagle mark on the back of his neck becoming hot. This was a sign that Aquila was calling him.
He saw Daphne and Murray waiting for him in the corridor, and motioned for them to leave first, as he still had things to do. Then he walked to a deserted corner and summoned Aquila.
"Well, it's a good thing to be interested in ancient history." Aquila's shadow circled around Xie Lin, "Remember that I told you that when you can completely inherit the knowledge of Ravenclaw, I Will you be rewarded with a secret? Now is the time for me to fulfill my promise."
"You must also know that Hogwarts Castle was built by four great founders at the end of the tenth century. It has been more than a thousand years ago. Over the years, it has experienced countless ups and downs, and there have been countless outstanding principals. , professors and students, so the castle itself is a huge treasure house, no less than any ancient pure-blood family. Over the past thousand years, the castle has experienced countless excavations and renovations, but it still hides many unknowns. The secret..."
Although Xie Lin tried his best to pretend to be calm, his whole heart beat uncontrollably. Was Aquila's so-called secret the secret of the castle? This is indeed a big surprise!
"Yes, you have probably guessed that the secret I am going to talk about is the secret of Hogwarts," Aquila said. "It starts with the seven secret rooms. Needless to say, we all know that you have already opened two of them. , Ravenclaw and Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets..."
Xie Lin's heart was beating fast. He had never thought that there were actually seven secret rooms! In addition to the four founders, there are actually three other secret rooms!
Aquila was very satisfied with Schelling's expression of eager anticipation and said: "The remaining five secret rooms are Hufflepuff's Chamber of Secrets, Gryffindor's Treasure, Merlin's Chamber of Secrets, Paratha's Chamber of Secrets, and the Chamber of Secrets. This mysterious room..."
It turns out that one of them is the Room of Requirement, and it seems that he has opened three of them.
Aquila was a little surprised when she saw the change in Xie Lin's eyes, "No way! Could it be that you have discovered the secret of the Room of Requirement?"
After receiving Schelling's affirmative reply, Aquila exclaimed: "It's amazing, it's amazing - well, then all you need to explore are the remaining four secret rooms. Due to the limitations of ancient magic, I can't tell you the secret rooms or treasures directly. I can only give you one clue about where it is, so listen up - Hufflepuff's clue is the kitchen, Gryffindor's clue is the centaur, Merlin's clue is Peeves, and Parather's clue is the half-body. picture."
This was really an unexpected surprise. Schelling was very satisfied with his harvest, but then Aquila did not stop there, but gave him more surprises!
"Do you think there are only so many secrets in the castle? You are wrong!" Aquila was very satisfied with the dumbfounded expression on Xie Lin's face and said happily: "Have you ever thought about the secrets left by successive principals for their successors in the principal's office? What happened?"
"Have you ever wondered how Peeves was formed? And where did the huge giant squid in the Black Lake come from? What is the secret of the small island in the middle of the Black Lake?"
"Of course don't forget the last one. As the longest-serving Hogwarts professor Binns, no students have ever visited his office. It is said that he himself never works there - you know he can't touch the real thing. , so what’s in his office?”
Yes, what's in Professor Binns' office? Schelling certainly never thought about this. Now that I think about it, I'm actually a little curious.
Anyway, Xie Lin had no classes for the next whole day. Xie Lin decided to strike while the iron was hot and go find out this mysterious office today.
There is strength in numbers, so he first approached Murray, who also had a rare interest in the history of magic, and she happened to have no class today.
He asked mysteriously: "Murray, do you know where Professor Binns's office is?"
Murray wrinkled his lovely nose, "Well... I've never heard of Professor Binns having an office... I think there should never be any students who go to him for advice after class, right?"
Xie Lin showed a sly smile, "There is no doubt that every professor has an office. It's just that Professor Binns can't touch physical objects, so he doesn't need to work in the office. Have you ever thought about what is in his office?" have what?"
"Why do you suddenly ask about this?" Murray showed a strange expression, and then smiled, "You must have had the idea of the professor's office? Do you want to see what good things are there? My Young Master Malfoy?"
Xie Lin shrugged, "I don't think it's okay. I feel like Professor Binns won't mind at all - although the things he left in the office belong to him, he can't touch or use them. If they can be used by others, If the characters are put to their best use, maybe he will be happier!”
Mo Rui tilted his head, thought for a while, and it seemed to be the reason, and then said: "So? You came to me because..."
"Exploring the entire Hogwarts Castle has always been one of my plans. Are you willing to help me?" Sherlin asked expectantly.
"What do you think?" Murray rolled his eyes at him, as if Xie Lin asked nonsense, "I am willing to help you even if you want to form a force, let alone something as small as exploring the castle."
The two spent an afternoon looking up information in the library about Hogwarts: A History. Although they had both read the book, the author, Bathilda Bagshot, was still alive, so she would occasionally update the book (add new chapters) or patch the previous content.
In the magical world, as long as the author was still alive, all published books could be modified through the "multiplication spell". When the author modified the manuscript, all books would reflect the modification, and the modification would be made in real time without delay.
So the two had to look for the latest information in the book.
After finding some clues, Sherin did not miss the opportunity to ask the ghosts one by one.
After several inquiries, the two successfully narrowed down the possible locations of Professor Binns' office to three locations in the castle. Murray was usually a well-behaved, gentle and quiet girl. She accompanied Sherin on the road like an adventure, which made her face flushed and very cute.
Finally, the two found a hidden wooden door in the Gregory Corridor on the sixth floor. The anti-Arachnophobia spell was cast on the wooden door, but it didn't bother Sherin. Sherin used the Muggle universal unlocker to pry the wooden door open in front of Murray's surprised eyes.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, the two quickly slipped in. Sure enough, the rumor was right. Professor Binns didn't work here. The office was messy, with open books and scattered parchments everywhere, covered with thick dust, indicating that no one had visited here for a long time.
Murray patted her chest. It was still a bit too exciting for her to sneak into the professor's office. Looking at Sherin's calm appearance, she deduced that Sherin must have done similar things before.
Xie Lin looked at Mo Rui's red face due to nervousness. In addition, she had been running around in the corridor of the castle before, which made her forehead covered with a layer of fine sweat. Her towering chest kept rising and falling with rapid breathing. She couldn't help laughing, "Don't be nervous. If you are really caught by the professor, you can say that I held you hostage, haha!"
Mo Rui rolled his eyes at Xie Lin and calmed down his nervous mood after a few deep breaths.
Since she and Xie Lin had a heart-to-heart talk, she had been mentally prepared for this. However, she was such a law-abiding person. This character and concept were shaped by her growth process in the past 13 years. This was not something that could be forcibly reversed by simply changing her mind, and it was even more impossible to change suddenly in a short time.
At this moment, she knew very well that she was about to violate the school rules for the first time and violate the principles she had adhered to in the past. She thought she would be very nervous and perhaps a little repulsive, but strangely, she didn't feel that way. Instead, she felt a little bit of joy because she could do these things with Xie Lin.
With the divine Amaterasu, Xielin was already a master at picking up girls. Mori's expression could not be hidden from Xielin.
Xielin did not say anything, but just looked at Mori quietly.
Mori was a little uncomfortable with Xielin's hot eyes, blushed, and said, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
"Thank you, Mori." Xielin said softly.
"Hmph, I told you, don't say thank you to me anymore," Mori pretended to be dissatisfied and snorted, and then her eyes were full of determination, "You don't have to say anything, I believe you, Xielin."
Xielin smiled and waved her wand at Mori. Her long hair and sweat instantly became clean and tidy. Magic is convenient!
Xielin browsed the books on the bookshelf row by row. Most of these books were about the goblin rebellion and the giant war. The content can be learned in class. It is estimated that they are reference books used to make teaching materials and are not worth Xielin taking away. Murray walked around with great interest. Unlike Sherin, this was her first time visiting a professor's office!
Sherin opened his magic eye. Most of the books on the bookshelf were ordinary history books, but in an inconspicuous corner, there was a book that released unusual magic fluctuations.
He took out his wand and tapped the spine of the book. The entire bookcase suddenly rumbled and moved to the left, revealing a small wooden door behind the bookcase.
I didn't expect that even Professor Binns had a secret room!
The wooden door was not locked.
The two of them entered the secret room excitedly and found a round table in the middle of the empty secret room. He found two sets of books on the table, which turned out to be notes on the language research of ancient dragons and ancient giants.
There were ten thick books in the ancient dragon language, and six thick books in the ancient giant language. Sherin put them all into his portable library without hesitation.
[The Book of Ancient Dragons is obtained! ] [The Book of Ancient Giants is obtained! 】
Seeing the way Murray was staring at him, Xie Lin felt a little embarrassed, "As the saying goes, whoever sees it gets a share... How about I give you half of these books?"
Murray snorted with a little dissatisfaction, "Do you think everyone is as good as you? The fourth grade homework is already heavy enough, where do I find the time to do these time-consuming extra studies?"
Xie Lin smiled awkwardly, "Then, how should I repay this beautiful lady and thank her for accompanying me throughout the afternoon, so that I can have such a pleasant day?"
Murray was amused by him and laughed, "I want you to teach me the magic spells - the ones that will help you quickly take care of your hair and clothes, and restore them to be clean and tidy... Don't fool around with the magic spells that are commonly used outside. What I want is you. Unique technique, don’t think I don’t know. Your spell-casting technique is unique, so the speed and effect of your spell-casting are so outstanding - I have read about Finkley’s spell-casting technique in books, but I can’t do it like you. So delicate," she said with a hint of hope, "How about that?"
Ever since the day when the two of them expressed their feelings to each other, Xie Lin had long regarded Murray as his girlfriend, and he had never hidden any secrets from his girlfriend. Daphne, Meredith, and Astoria have already mastered his spell-casting techniques.
"Fool, based on our relationship, even if you didn't tell me, I would have taken the time to teach you recently..." Xie Lin said with a smile, "What kind of request is this? How about another one?"
"Well, let me think about it..." Murray tilted his head, "It seems that there is nothing I want to learn for the time being!"
"How could it not be? There must be," Xie Lin's eyes gradually became hot, "I can teach you how to kiss..."
Xie Lin stretched out his hand and took Mo Rui into his arms. Mo Rui was caught off guard and couldn't stand still. He only exclaimed. Looking up, he saw Xie Lin's dark eyes shining with inexplicable light. Her body suddenly His whole body stiffened, his face felt hot, and his heart beat uncontrollably.
Before she could speak, Xie Lin kissed her lips.
The four red lips pressed together, and Mo Rui's originally stiff body gradually relaxed. She closed her eyes obediently and responded to Xie Lin's deep kiss...
Xie Lin spent a lot of time and completely taught Murray his spell-casting techniques.
Schelling's spell-casting techniques have long been separated from the framework of Voldemort's curse-casting techniques - in the past three years, Schelling has read Professor Flitwick's duel notes, the Silver Spear organization's duel records sent by Sister Gulana, La Winclaw's spell-casting techniques, coupled with the insights he gained from continuous actual combat, he has already improved the spell-casting techniques at least twenty times.
He was confident that his spell-casting skills were as good as anyone else's.
If Voldemort had not tried to improve his spell-casting techniques in the past ten years of his life, Schelling was confident that he could defeat Voldemort in terms of spell-casting techniques.
