Civilization and Harmony Hogwarts

In the dark space where you can't see your fingers, the air is filled with the unique smell of reptiles that have survived for a long time, and the slow and low sound of ticking water sounds rhythmically.

This is a nearly airtight space in the depths of Hogwarts.

It was a secret space specially opened up by one of the builders of Hogwarts. Since its builder left, no one has set foot in it for thousands of years.

Afu is a special existence. As Hogwarts itself, she can naturally appear in any location of Hogwarts at any time according to her own wishes.

Thus, this dark space ushered in its first ray of light since it was closed for a thousand years.

As the magic pattern on the wall detected Afu's entry, the huge white spherical object embedded in the center of the high dome began to diffuse a soft white light outward.

Obviously there is only one light source, and the light is not dazzling, but the whole space is as bright as day.

A huge basilisk is entrenched in the center of the room, with its huge snake head pressing on its thick body, and its fine and dense snake scales are arranged in an orderly manner.

Its sleeping appearance is not in line with elegance, it can even be called rough.

The mouth is half open, and the ferocious snake teeth are exposed.

Occasionally there will be crystal saliva mixed with overflowing venom, slowly dripping along the snake's teeth, hitting the flat ground, and then being affected by the magic pattern carved on the ground, it evaporates and disappears with a "sizzling" sound. (Salazar: Do you know how much money I spent on researching new materials and magic patterns in order to prevent the venom it accidentally dripped from corroding the room?)

Perhaps because it has been left unattended for a long time, its snake scales are not as clean as they used to be, and dirt has accumulated in the gaps. The original clear patterns are blurred and covered by dirty ink, and the original appearance has long been unclear.

The hygiene of the snake teeth is also very worrying.

The yellowish color, the damaged tissue, and the dark red meat residue and pale bone fragments stuck between the teeth are all enough to show that this unhygienic Mai Tai snake has never brushed its teeth after eating for so many years!

Afu was attacked by the stench coming towards him along with its breath, he was suffocated, his body froze, and he was about to stage a snake slaughter scene on the spot.

The wand was pulled out and pinched in his hand, and the tip of the wand had already begun to emit light.

"Professor—" A sharp shout stopped Afu in time.

Only then did Afu hold her breath and force herself to calm down first.

"Professor, I'm very sorry—" The house elf who was in charge of taking care of the basilisk pinched his apron nervously at this moment, his big eyes filled with tears.

Afu beckoned to the house elf to signal it to come over.

Only then did the house elf let go of the crumpled apron that she had kneaded, and ran towards Afu in small steps.

"It's all Lamo's fault! Lamo didn't find out that the professor was coming to the secret room in time!" The house elf who called himself Lamo blamed himself, and pulled his ears hard with his thin fingers as if punishing himself.

Because she was holding her breath, Afu didn't speak, but just waved her hand to indicate that she didn't care.

After waving the wand, a ray of light flashed, temporarily clearing the air around her, and then Afu spoke.

"Isn't it usually cleaned?" Afu asked in disbelief.

Aff didn't doubt that the house-elf would ignore the basilisk's hygiene because it was sneaky and sneaky.

House elves are rare qualified workers who have jobs in their eyes. They will only look for work when they are out of work, and there is no such thing as laziness or less work.

The poor sanitation of the basilisk is obviously not the result of a day. If it is possible to do such an obvious task as taking care of the basilisk's hygiene, the house elves would have done it long ago. It can only be because of some circumstances that the house elves cannot do it .

Salazar's father would definitely not tolerate the existence of such a dirty basilisk, so when he left, he asked the house-elf to take care of the basilisk and at the same time must have arranged for the clean-up work, then——

It could only be that the basilisk itself didn't want the house-elf to clean it up for itself.

as predicted.

"Lord Buzz refuses to clean up." Lamo Xuxu kept blaming and loathing himself, "It's all Lamo's fault! Lamo couldn't get Lord Buzz to agree! Lamo didn't complete his task!"

While speaking, Lamo pulled his ears out vigorously.

The pointy ears were forcefully stretched into a line, and the fragile ear tips showed a translucent texture.

"Stop!" Afu shouted to stop Lamo's self-mutilation.

House-elves with obedience ingrained in their bones have developed muscle memory of their master's commands.

Under Afu's voice, Lamo let go subconsciously, and flicked back his pulled ear.

The clean freak Afu coldly pointed at the basilisk Buzz and directed Lamo, "Wake it up and wash it off."

"Yes, professor." For Lamo, who was troubled by the basilisk's unwillingness to clean up and his job included this part, Afu's order was like a voice from heaven.

it!Ramo!

I can finally complete my work tasks!

From now on, it will no longer be a disgrace among the house-elves at Hogwarts!

This month!Talamo's house-elf ranking is finally no longer at the bottom!

Lamo raised his head vigorously, his face full of vigor and vigor.

A crisp finger snap, a huge water column.

A "war" started vigorously.

……

The basilisk is a snake-like magical creature with a green body, but it is actually different from a poisonous snake.

For a long time, people have only some rare records of basilisks.

Legend has it that it came from a magic egg laid by a seven-year-old rooster when Sirius was in the sky, and was hatched by a toad.

Its sight is the most dangerous weapon of attack—any creature that meets its gaze directly is instantly killed, and those that meet it indirectly (such as through a mirror) are petrified.

As long as there is enough food, basilisks can usually live a long time, at least 900 years.

The basilisk called "basilicus" in Latin is also known as the "snake king" because its Latin name contains the meaning of "royal family".

Because of its extreme destructiveness, breeding basilisks was already illegal as early as the Middle Ages, but this law, even dark wizards, did not often violate it, because the only person who could control basilisks was the Parselmouth.

The first recorded basilisk was bred by "Herpo the Vile," a Greek dark wizard who spoke a Parseltongue.After many experiments, the man discovered that if a male egg was hatched under the body of a toad, a dangerous snake with extraordinary abilities would hatch.

This powerful magical creature that only Parseltongue can control is feared and rejected by ordinary wizards, but it is also enthusiastically admired by Parseltongue wizards.

And Salazar Slytherin is a Parseltongue, and the matter of breeding a basilisk undoubtedly has a huge attraction for him.

Basilisk Buzz is a night when Salazar Slytherin was in the sky of Sirius. He personally selected the roundest, plump and eye-catching egg from a pile of eggs laid by a seven-year-old rooster, and then placed it on the hatched from under the toad.

Buzz has been favored by this legendary wizard since he was born.

In order to allow your "little baby" to move freely, pipes are arranged everywhere in Hogwarts Castle for it to slide and move.

Perhaps in Salazar's heart, the status of the basilisk Buzz is only below his three friends, Afu and his biological daughter.

This also caused Buzz's domineering character.

After Salazar left Hogwarts, maybe because he knew that the person who pampered him was gone, or maybe because his master was too sad to leave, Buzz resolutely chose to sleep.

Occasionally wakes up because of hunger, and soon continues to sink into sleep after eating the food sent by the house elves.

Buzz has never been a basilisk that loves cleanliness. He used to maintain hygiene all the time because of Salazar. When his master was no longer by his side, his pampered domineering character was fully reflected, and he was no longer willing to wrong himself.

Refusing house elves to do body cleaning for themselves, attacking house elves who intend to clean their bodies quietly during hibernation...

After beating house elves so many times, Buzz is finally free!

------

Before Tang Tangzi opened the Chamber of Secrets, in the 18th century, because Hogwarts wanted to "modernize"—renovate the bathroom and the like, in order to prevent the entrance of the Chamber of Secrets from being discovered during construction, a Gunter once found the Chamber of Secrets and Intervened in the transformation of the entrance of the secret room. The modified entrance mechanism is located on the snake-shaped decoration near the sink in the women's bathroom (as for whether he has opened it or not, it seems that he did not say clearly, this article assumes that he has not opened it).

……

Buzz: Buzz is a free basilisk!Buzz doesn't shower!Do not brush your teeth!

Lamo: Lamo is a useless house-elf, Lamo can't clean up Lord Buzz...

Afu (with a big hand wave): Give me water to wake up this dirty snake!
