Necromancers Guide to Magic

"Sir, I'd like to ask," Hermione made it clear that she was about to smash to the end with Professor Bins, which surprised everyone.

"Legends are all based on facts, don't they?"

Professor Bins looked at Hermione in surprise.Benjamin believed that no student had interrupted Professor Bins in this way, whether he was alive or after his death.

"Well," Professor Bins said slowly, "Yeah, I think you can say that." He looked at Hermione hard, as if he had never looked at a student before.

"But, the legend you told is a very sensational, even funny story..."

Now, the whole class is listening attentively to every word spoken by Professor Bins.Benjamin also sat up straight, and as for Draco, his little face was full of seriousness.

Professor Bins looked at them dimly, seeing every face turned to him.Benjamin could see that everyone showed such an unusually strong interest, which really embarrassed Mr. Bins.

"Oh, then all right," he said slowly, "Let me think about... The Chamber of Secrets... You all know that Hogwarts School was founded more than a thousand years ago-the exact date is not certain- —The founders were the four greatest wizards and wizards of the time. The four academies were named after them: Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, and Rowena Ravenclaw And Salazar Slytherin. They built this castle together, away from the prying eyes of Muggles, because in that era, the common people were afraid of magic, and witches and wizards were persecuted a lot."

Of course, Benjamin knew about this period of history.He has heard many people mention it.But this made Benjamin feel a little unthinkable. Why would a wizard with absolute strength and intelligence be persecuted by ordinary people?

Professor Bins paused, looked around the classroom with a blurred vision, and continued: "In the first few years, several founders worked harmoniously together, looking for young people who showed signs of magic, and brought them to the castle. Cultivate well. But slowly they have differences. The rift between Slytherin and the others is getting bigger and bigger. Slytherin wants Hogwarts to be more critical when recruiting students. He thinks magic education It should only be limited to pure magic families. He was unwilling to accept the children born to Muggles, thinking they were unreliable. After some days, Slytherin and Gryffindor had a fierce quarrel over this issue, and then Slater Lin left the school." Professor Bins paused again, pursing his lips, like a wrinkled old turtle.

"Reliable historical information tells us this," he said. "But these pure facts are obscured by the weird legend about the secret room. The story says that Slytherin built a secret room in the castle, and others founded The person knows nothing about it."

"According to this legend, Slytherin closed the secret room so that no one could open it until his true heir came to the school. Only that heir could open the secret room and release the horror inside and let it cleanse the school. , To eliminate all those who are not worthy of learning magic."

When the story was over, the whole class was silent, but it was not the drowsy silence that was usually seen in Professor Bins's class.Everyone continued to stare at him, hoping that he would continue speaking. The atmosphere was disturbing, and Professor Bins looked a little annoyed.

"Of course, the whole thing is nonsense," Professor Bins said. "The school has naturally investigated whether there is such a secret room. After many investigations, the most knowledgeable wizards and wizards were invited. The secret room. Doesn’t exist. It’s just a story designed to scare simple-minded people."

Benjamin thought for a moment. He couldn't see any clues from the face of the old ghost, but this kind of over-official answer really made Benjamin hard to believe.

"Did your father mention this to you?" Benjamin glanced at Draco beside him.

"Well, he said something, that's why I don't like Mudblood so much. So this secret room should exist, but it seems that the secret room has never been opened." Draco's eyes flashed with excitement, and Benjamin was very excited. Understandably, he must think the secret room is too cool.

Hermione's hand was raised in the air again."Sir-what did you mean by the horror in the secret room?"

"People think it is some kind of monster, only the heir of Slytherin can control it." Professor Bins said in his delicate, faint voice.

The students exchanged nervous glances."Tell you, that Dongliang doesn't exist at all." Professor Bins clumsily arranged his notes and said, "There are no secret rooms, and no monsters."

"But, sir," said Simon Finnigan, "since this secret room can only be opened by the true heir of Slytherin, others may not be able to find it at all, right?"

"Nonsense, Overlay," Professor Bins said in an annoyed tone, "Since so many previous school principals and principals have not found that thing—"

"But, Professor," Palti Petir (a Gryffindor) shrieked, "Probably it must be opened with black magic—"

"A wizard who doesn't use black magic doesn't mean he can't use it, Miss Penny Feather!" Professor Bins said sharply, "I repeat, since Dumbledore's feint person—"

"Maybe, someone who has a relationship with Slytherin can open it, so Dumbledore can't—" Mr. Binns was impatient before Dean Thomas finished.

"Enough," he said sternly. "This is a myth! It doesn't exist at all! There is no evidence that Slytherin once built such a secret broom shed or something. I regret telling you this absurd story. ! If you want, let us go back to history, back to real, credible, and reliable facts!"

Benjamin laughed. He felt that these classmates were all so naughty. Of course, he hated such naughty.It's just that a secret room that can only be opened by the true successor of Slytherin?This gave Benjamin a keen interest, thinking that he would have to go to the secret room anyway.As for the mysterious heir, he was even more interested.

Professor Bins continued to study, and within five minutes, the students fell into that kind of drowsy sleepiness.
