Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

As a time-traveling reborn, what is the difference between not making trouble and salting fish?

Mr. Zhao once said to Zhang Xu that if he had a chance at Hogwarts, he could quietly make some good things and come back.

Zhang Xu thought about it for a long time, and felt that it would be good to get some parts from the basilisk before it was killed next year.

After confirming the existence of the Chamber of Secrets in Hogwarts from Professor Binns, Zhang Xu found information about the Basilisk in the library, and went to the girl's bathroom to confirm the one with Snake marks the location of the waterless faucet.

Then Zhang Xu submitted a report to Mr. Zhao about obtaining the parts of the basilisk.

The report introduced the history and current situation of the basilisk in detail, listed the value of the eyes, venom and snake skin of the basilisk, and explained the methods of dealing with the basilisk and possible emergencies.

Mr. Zhao quickly replied to Zhang Xu, agreeing that Zhang Xu should act while ensuring his own safety, and if necessary, he could ask Dumbledore for help while giving up some benefits.

At the same time as Mr. Zhao's reply letter, a plan was sent. This plan with a strong military style formulated action policies in various situations, and designed many methods to deal with the basilisk. Advice on how to escape takes up three-quarters of the content.

The plan predicts that the best result is that Zhang Xu gets what he wants quietly, the result of the passing line is Dumbledore's shot, and the final result is that he gets half of the things at most, and the worst result is Hogwarts. Ci completely destroyed.

In the end, there were some useful props and weapons, which were transported into Hogwarts among the books purchased by the students.

After Zhang Xu spent a few days getting ready, he chose a day when there was no class in the afternoon, and started to act after lunch.

Zhang Xu returned to the bedroom after a full meal, took all the equipment, activated the invisibility magic on the robe, and walked out of the common room.

Dodging the students along the way, Zhang Xu came to the gate of the girls' bathroom on the first floor.

Standing in front of the girls' bathroom, Zhang Xu suddenly thought of a curly-browed chef on a certain pirate ship. This chef had a great dream, which was to sneak into the girls' bathroom after eating the fruit of invisibility.

Well, now Zhang Xu is about to realize this great dream, although there are no women in it, only female ghosts.

As for sneaking into the women's bathroom after being invisible, Zhang Xu hadn't thought about it at all. Zhang Xu had no interest in this world of wizards without knee stockings.

Zhang Xu took out a requiem talisman, input magic power and patted it on the door of the bathroom.

In addition to calming people, the requiem talisman also has the function of putting ghosts into sleep.

After entering the door, Zhang Xu saw that Jin Tao Niang was already lying down.

After finding the faucet with the snake mark, Zhang Xu took out a thumb-sized crystal with the label "Open", tapped the crystal with a magic wand, and a "hiss... hiss..." sound came out of the crystal.

Zhang Xu couldn't figure out where the country got the recordings of Parseltongue. Now there are more than 30 Parseltongue recording crystals in the treasure bag, which is enough for Zhang Xu to deal with most situations.

Soon, the entrance to the secret room opened.

After the entrance was opened, Zhang Xu took off his inconvenient robe and put it into the treasure bag, and then put the treasure bag into the pocket of the combat uniform prepared in advance under the robe.

Now Zhang Xu's style of painting has changed. It is no longer dressed like a medieval wizard, but dressed in combat uniform and tactical vest.

After Zhang Xu cast a few protective spells on himself, he entered the passage, then cast spells on the passage wall, took out another recording crystal, closed the entrance of the passage, and then slid down.

When he was sliding down that dark, sticky, endless, zigzag, and twisted tube, Zhang Xu wondered if he should do something to trap Voldemort next year. But if you think about it, it would be difficult if you accidentally crippled Ginny or even killed him.

Just gave up the idea.

Soon, Zhang Xu was at the end.

After turning one turn after another in the tunnel, Zhang Xu finally came to the front of the wall carved with two intertwined snakes and big, shining emeralds in their eyes.

First, traps were placed outside the stone wall. The magic traps that had been cast with the Earth Wall Curse, Ice Curse, and Fire Curse were placed in the tunnel, and they would be activated as long as Zhang Xu activated them through magic or came into contact with the basilisk.

Looking at the traps in the tunnel, Zhang Xu felt as if he had returned to the days when he sat in front of the computer and played games in his previous life.

After arranging the retreat, Zhang Xu took out a huge glass bottle, which was filled with fingertip-sized origami cranes of various colors. The whole bottle looked like the wishing bottles that girls often made.

However, this large bottle of thousand paper cranes is the main force against the basilisk today.

Still using the recording crystal to open the stone wall, Zhang Xu closed his eyes and listened carefully for any movement in the secret room behind the stone wall with his enchanted ears.

After listening for a while, Zhang Xu found that there was no movement in the secret room, so Zhang Xu threw the large bottle of thousand paper cranes in, then took out a recording crystal the size of a fist, activated it with a magic wand, and threw it in, and finally closed the stone wall. up,

After the stone wall was closed, Zhang Xu took out a few more talisman papers and pasted it on it to make the stone wall more tightly closed.

After preparing all these, Zhang Xu stayed away from the stone wall and stood on the edge of a corner opposite the stone wall to get ready, and if something went wrong, he would run away immediately.

With the combination of the magic side and the technology side, China's magic world began the research and development of magic weapons.

It is no longer the use of space expansion spells to expand fighter jet fuel tanks so that Cai Guoqing can fly to the Nansha Islands in the air, and floating spells to allow 59 to go up mountains and cross seas and other auxiliary magic, but to develop magic weapons that alchemists and even ordinary soldiers can use .

For example, the magic trap on the ground now played the monkey army to death on the southern border battlefield, and the big bottle of thousand paper cranes made the monkey army in the tunnel worse than death.

According to the preset settings, after the big bottle of thousand paper cranes was smashed in the secret room, the thousand paper cranes in the bottle would automatically activate and fly around.

A minute later, the recording crystal will emit the sound of calling a basilisk in Parseltongue.

After about five minutes, there was a huge commotion in the secret room behind the stone wall.

First there was the sound of a rooster crowing, and then there was a loud bang.

Among the thousand paper cranes thrown into the secret room, there is a kind of thousand paper cranes that recorded the sound of a rooster crowing. While dodging in the sky, this kind of thousand paper cranes launched a sonic attack on the basilisk.

The sound of "boom" coming from the secret room was the thousand paper cranes with explosive magic exploding on the basilisk.

The sound of "dong dong dong" should be that the thousand paper cranes that have been cast with earth magic are setting up obstacles for the basilisk.

The sound of "cracking" was the "refrigerator" that the basilisk broke free from the thousand paper cranes that had been cast with ice magic.

After more than ten minutes, the secret room became quiet.

After a few minutes, the secret room was completely silent.

Zhang Xu carefully opened the stone wall of the secret room again, then closed his eyes and listened carefully, only to find that there was no sound inside.

With his eyes closed, Zhang Xu took out a magic Polaroid camera, took random pictures in the direction of the secret room, then picked up the photos, carefully touched the wall and walked through a few bends in the tunnel, and then used his magic wand to emit a little light , Seeing that the camera was not broken and all the photos were completely dark, he was finally relieved to be sure that there was no basilisk with open eyes waiting for him in the secret room.

Zhang Xu checked the invisibility spell and the silence spell that had been activated on his combat uniform, and added a spell to block out odors and a cold wind spell that was used as an air conditioner in the past to prevent basilisks from being able to smell and breathe like snakes. Infrared light to detect prey. Then he took out a pair of protective glasses like night vision goggles and put them on his head.

Standing at the door of the secret room, Zhang Xu cast a dozen fake fire spells into the secret room at once, and the places hit by the spells ignited clusters of white flames, illuminating the whole secret room like daylight.

As a wizard must learn the lighting technique, Zhang Xu has put a lot of effort into the lighting technique. The false fire spell was originally developed as a lighting spell, but the twin brothers like to use it for pranks.

Under the white firelight, Zhang Xu saw the huge basilisk laying motionless on the ground with its eyes closed, not knowing whether it was dead or alive.

Zhang Xu took out two large plastic buckets, which contained a glue jointly developed by the magic side and the science side, which claimed to be able to mend the space shuttle.

Zhang Xu controlled the glue to fly to the basilisk's head, covering the basilisk's mouth and eyes.

After waiting for five minutes for the glue to solidify, Zhang Xu dared to approach the basilisk.

When he came to the basilisk, Zhang Xu found that the basilisk was still breathing in its nostrils, and the basilisk was just unconscious.

Zhang Xu thought about it, and decided not to kill the basilisk this time. Maybe after taking some parts this time, it will grow again next year, and it can be harvested again.

So Zhang Xu took out a lot of tools specially sent by China for this operation, first used a coma talisman to slap the basilisk on the head, then used a few talismans to restrain the basilisk's movements, and then began to use the special The tool disassembled the parts.

First, a special syringe the size of Zhang Xu's calf was used to pierce the poison sac of the basilisk, and all the venom was drawn out, and put into a special bottle to seal the title.

Then, two other larger syringes were used to extract the bile and blood of the basilisk respectively.

When I was about to peel some snake skin, I found that the skin of the basilisk was harder than expected. The tools prepared in advance were not easy to use, so I had to give up due to time constraints.

The last and most important item is to dig out one eye of the basilisk.

Zhang Xu took out a piece of white jade the size of a football, and there was a trace of coldness in the white jade.

Zhang Xu put the white jade on the left eye of the basilisk, tapped the white jade with a magic wand, and guided the cold air in the white jade to freeze all the muscle tissue around the basilisk's eyeball, and then forcefully wrapped the large piece with magic. The muscles holding the basilisk's eyeballs were pulled out together with the eyeballs.

After removing all the parts from the basilisk and putting them back together, Zhang Xu was exhausted. Especially pulling out the eyeballs of the basilisk almost exhausted Zhang Xu's magic power.

After resting for a while, Zhang Xu found that the air coming in and out of the basilisk's nostrils was smaller than before.

In order to save the basilisk's life until next year's harvest, Zhang Xu took out the recovery potion that he had prepared for himself, and poured more than half a catty into the hollow eye socket of the basilisk. This kind of recovery potion can be used internally or externally.

The cold air remaining in the basilisk's eye sockets froze the recovery potion.

Zhang Xu calculated that the coldness remaining in the basilisk's eye sockets could last for a day, and the recovery potion thawed after a day would be able to save the basilisk's life. And now the magic that controls the basilisk can last for two or three days, so it should be no problem.

After recovering some physical strength and magic power, Zhang Xu left the secret room, closed the stone wall, and took a few seal symbols on the stone wall to prevent the injured basilisk from running out for almost a year, and then left.

If any wizard knew how Zhang Xu disassembled the basilisk parts this time, he would be so surprised that his three views would be shattered.

The reason is not how powerful Zhang Xu's magic is. Although Zhang Xu has not fully demonstrated his full level, he knows that his current strength is limited compared to the third-grade students. If you fight, you can beat the students in grades six and seven.

It was the magic item used by Zhang Xu that made the wizards look at each other. Under special circumstances, a low-grade student could beat the basilisk to the ground with a magic weapon under special circumstances. This has subverted Western magic. Common sense that the more powerful magic items in the world require, the more magic power they need.

If such magical weapons are popularized in Europe, their impact will be no less than that of muskets and artillery on knights and castles. No matter how much the pure-blooded nobles have inherited and how powerful they are, they will eventually be overwhelmed by ordinary wizards who use easy-to-operate and powerful magic weapons.

Zhang Xu had never planned to use such weapons at Hogwarts. The only ones he had were used as cards to save his life, and the most commonly used ones were the talismans with low power.

Moreover, the books that Zhang Xu brought and resold were strictly screened, and the content about magic weapons was either not mentioned at all, or seriously weakened to be better than toys.

After Zhang Xu left Jin Tao Niang's girls' bathroom, the first thing he did was to go to the owl room to send away today's harvest, so as not to have long nights and dreams.

After leaving the owl room, Zhang Xu went back to the dormitory and put away the combat uniform inside the robe, cleaned himself up to get rid of the smell that might be left on his body, and then planned to drink some tea in the reading room. Have some snacks.

Although Zhang Xu didn't exert much power except that he almost ran out of magic power at the end, he was very nervous throughout the whole process. He was not only under the pressure brought by the basilisk, but also afraid of Dumbledore's sudden appearance, and even more afraid of Quirrell. The professor will come suddenly.

According to the plan, if the basilisk hurts Zhang Xucheng, or Professor Quirrell appears with the back of his head, Zhang Xu will call Dumbledore without hesitation.

Now that the loot has been sent out, even if Dumbledore finds it, nothing will change, so now Zhang Xu feels mentally exhausted after he relaxes.

Zhang Xu hasn't been in the underground for a long time, and now it's only the end of the first class in the afternoon.

On the way to the reading room, Zhang Xu saw Hermione walking towards her with her head down.

"Hey, Hermione, what class are you going to take?" Zhang Xu greeted Hermione.

Hermione didn't answer, but just raised her head and nodded to Zhang Xu as a greeting, then continued to walk forward.

Zhang Xu saw that Hermione's eyes were red, as if she was crying, so he followed Hermione and asked, "Hermione, why are you crying? What happened?"

Hermione lowered her head and kept silent at first, but when Zhang Xu was thinking about whether to continue asking, Hermione suddenly raised her head and shouted hysterically.

"I don't know what the hell I did wrong?" Hermione growled.

"Am I actually wrong to let them not break the school rules?

"Should I encourage them to violate school rules?

"Am I doing him harm by correcting his mispronunciation of spells?

"I spelled the right spell and cast the magic, am I doing something wrong?

"I obviously did nothing wrong, but why did he target me like this? Is it because I'm black? Is there racism in the wizarding world?"

Zhang Xu touched his nose, and after hearing what Hermione was complaining about, he didn't know what to say for a while.

Blame Ron? Although Ron is a brat, Hermione's arrogant way of speaking is really wrong, which hurts the brat's self-esteem. No wonder Ron will target Hermione. Zhang Xu's two lives are mature and thoughtful. In his eyes, Hermione is also a bear, but the direction of the bear is different, so he doesn't care about the bear.

To tell Hermione that there is no such thing as racism in the wizarding world, does Ron not discriminate against her because she is black? But there are some more serious discriminations in the Western wizarding world. In the future, Malfoy will call Hermione a "mudblood" in front of Hermione, which will lead to a group fight.

"Sorry." Before Zhang Xu could think of anything to say, Hermione said to her, "I'm just in a bad mood, let me be quiet."

After speaking, Hermione quickened her pace and left.

Seeing Hermione turning into the girls' bathroom, Zhang Xu had no choice but to turn around and go to the reading room.

On the way to the reading room, Zhang Xu realized that he seemed to have forgotten something.
