Hogwarts passer-by professor

Chapter 73 Parseltongue

Yes, the sound Harry heard must be the sound of the basilisk.

This ability is called Parseltongue in the wizarding world. It was originally an ability only possessed by Voldemort, but because his soul fragments splashed onto Harry, Harry also had the ability to speak Parseltongue.

For the trio of saviors, most of the crises in the second school year came from the basilisk, which was released by the diary that controlled Ginny.

Thinking of this, Aisen couldn't help but reach out and pat his forehead.I have been focusing on my own things during this period, but I almost forgot about the diary.

"What's wrong, Professor Eisen?" Seeing Eisen reach out and pat his forehead, Hermione didn't understand why he did this.

"Oh, it's nothing." Eisen smiled slightly, put down his hand and gave Hermione a suggestion, "I think you can ask Harry to see if he has any special experiences before, maybe you can find the answer."

"Yes, why didn't I think of that? Thank you, Professor!" Hermione nodded happily, turned around and left in a hurry.

Looking at Hermione's leaving figure, Eisen fell into deep thought.When it comes to major events in the second school year, they basically start with Voldemort's diary.

So, should we take this Horcrux directly into our hands and destroy it directly?In this regard, Eisen hesitated.

Because, if Eisen really wants to destroy the diary in advance, it is foreseeable that the plot will undergo major changes.This is not very friendly to Eisen.

If Aisen's strength really surpasses the ceiling of the wizarding world and reaches a level where he has no scruples, then he can be reckless from beginning to end.It's even okay to collect all the Horcruxes and destroy them in advance.

Of course, in fact, judging from the growth rate of Eisen's strength, there is no need to care so much about the plot.But, if you can keep a low profile.There is no need to do other actions, just take action at the critical moment.

"Tsk, tsk, it seems that Ginny will have to suffer for a while." After coming back to his senses, Eisen shook his head and had no immediate plans to rescue Ginny from Voldemort.Anyway, she's not in any danger right now.

……

After leaving Eisen, Hermione found Harry and Ron in the Gryffindor common room.

"Special experience?" After Hermione told the two of them Eisen's suggestion, Harry began to think deeply.He knew that the voices he heard were definitely not hallucinations, so he focused on special experiences.

Hermione and Ron fell silent and looked at Harry's dazed look calmly, which seemed quite funny.

After a while, Harry seemed to remember something, with a look of shock on his face, then looked at the two of them, and said eagerly, "Maybe I heard the sound of a snake!"

"Snake? Why do you think so?" Ron swallowed, looking a little weird.

"You mean, you can hear what the snake is saying?" Hermione looked at Harry in surprise.

"That's right, that was when I visited the zoo with Dursley and the others before I entered Hogwarts School..." Harry did not notice how strange the expressions of the two of them were. Instead, he remembered that he had been with a The snake dialogue thing came out.

"You mean, you made the glass disappear and released a python, and it told you that you had never been to Brazil?" Ron's tone lowered involuntarily.

"What's so weird about this? I didn't know I was a wizard until later. I bet there are many wizards who can do it!" In Harry's opinion, talking to snakes should be a common talent among wizards.After all, wizards can even cast magic, so what's so weird about talking to snakes?
"No, the ability to talk to snakes is called Parseltongue. Not many wizards have such a talent." Ron frowned and looked at Harry with a worried look, "Parseltongue is Salazar Slytherin. The symbol of Slytherin, so you know, the symbol of Slytherin is a snake."

"This can't be—" Harry opened his mouth mid-sentence, but suddenly paused as if he thought of something.He thought that during the first-year sorting ceremony, the Sorting Hat originally planned to sort him into Slytherin, but due to his strong request, he was sorted into Gryffindor.

"So, Harry, you may be the descendant of Slytherin!" Hermione concluded directly.

"It's okay, Harry." Ron stepped forward and patted Harry on the shoulder, further comforting him, "Maybe your ancestor is Salazar Slytherin? You know, pure-blood wizarding families often intermarry. , if we really want to count, Malfoy and I are still related!"

"You and Malfoy?" Not only Harry, but also Hermione looked at Ron in surprise.

"What's so strange about this? If pure-blood wizard families didn't intermarry, they would have disappeared long ago." Seeing the shocked expressions of the two of them, Ron shrugged his shoulders.

In fact, it's exactly what Ron said.Due to the intermarriage between pure-blood wizard families, they are basically related to each other.

Just like Ron, his grandmother was from the Black family, and Malfoy's mother was from the Black family.From this perspective, it is not wrong to say that Ron and Malfoy are relatives.

"So, what I heard in Lockhart's room was the sound of snakes?" Harry nodded and brought the topic back.

"But didn't you say that you heard words like tearing you apart and killing you?" Ron said the key.Indeed, how could a normal snake say such a thing?

"Is it possible that the snake was hunting, you know, catching some bugs and mice or something." Hermione made such a guess.

"Then where is it hidden? Lockhart's office was very spacious at the time, but I didn't find anything strange." Harry felt that he was close to the truth, but there were still some questions that he had not figured out.

Ron and Hermione looked at each other, and they didn't know how to explain this.Could it be said that the snake can cast a disguise spell, or is wearing an invisibility cloak?This is obviously impossible.

The three of them made some speculations. Although it was reasonable, there was no evidence at all, so they had to give up in the end.

In the evening, when Eisen returned to the office from the Charms classroom, he was in a very happy mood.

The reason? Naturally, it was because Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Professor Flitwick made breakthrough progress when studying the enhanced version of Apparition.

Although the enhanced version of apparation has not yet been created, the progress this time is enough to make Eisen happy.Eisen believes that if we look at this rate of progress, we will probably succeed soon.

However, to Eisen's surprise, Hermione actually came to the door again.

"So, you mean Harry is a Parseltongue and heard a snake saying things like 'rip you apart and kill you'?" After hearing the news Hermione got from Harry, Eisen There was no surprise there.

After all, for Eisen, he already knew all this.

"I think Harry is too sensitive." Hermione said seriously, "Maybe it's just a snake hunting, it's no big deal."

"Haha..." Seeing Hermione's attitude, Eisen couldn't help laughing.The little girl was still too young to know how powerful this snake was. "Okay, I understand, I will pay attention to this, don't worry!"

Speaking of basilisks, what actually makes Eisen regretful is that the Harry Potter world obviously has so many bug-level abilities, as well as magical contracts such as the Fidelity Charm and the Unbreakable Vow, but there is nothing like a pet contract.

To be honest, if he had this ability, Aisen wouldn't have to worry about dealing with the basilisk. He could just make a contract with it and turn it into his pet.

In this way, not only can you solve a problem, but you can also get a powerful pet. Wouldn't that be wonderful?But unfortunately, such a contract to bind magical animals does not exist.

Of course, it is not impossible to achieve it if Aisen is allowed to create a master-slave contract for magical animals.After all, the magic in this world is relatively idealistic, and there are ready-made magic contracts for reference, so if you continue to study it, you will definitely be able to create something.

But right now, Eisen still has his own plans and doesn't have the energy to do this, so he can only miss this basilisk in Hogwarts.Perhaps, Eisen will conduct research when he is free in the future, but certainly not now.
