From Kamal Taj to Hogwarts

Riddle made a "hissing" sound from time to time, and the vipers all over the place responded to him and formed a neat team. Under their leadership, Sivan and others came again to the place where the ghosts Sivan and Aurelius had previously explored.

Inside the cave once passed.

Under the control of Riddle, the vipers in the cave became harmless to humans and animals, and they obediently opened a wide path for everyone, even if they squeezed their companions.

Several larger vipers crawled ahead uncomplainingly and led the way, twisting and turning around several natural stone pillars, and finally arrived at an extremely secret cave entrance.

This cave entrance is about the thickness of a bucket, and is hidden among rocks. The outside of the cave entrance is also blocked by a large stone, so that no one found it when Ghost Sivan and Aurelius first explored it.

Ahead, the larger vipers stopped in front of the cave entrance, neighing continuously, but no longer daring to take a step forward, as if they were afraid of something.

"They said that this is where the snake king lives." Riddle explained.

Looking at the hole as thick as a bucket in front of them, Xiwen and the others looked at each other.

"So we have to crawl in?" Karma asked with a frown. He used his wand illumination technique to shine a light on the entrance of the cave, and found that it was extremely deep inside, with no end in sight.

"What else can I do? Is it possible to dig out this hole?" Aberforth said as he eagerly rolled up his sleeves and prepared to dive in.

Aurelius, who was more eager than Aberforth, stopped his movement and said: "I can do it alone, I will wake up Nagini."

"No, it's too dangerous!" Aberforth shook his head. "What if she is really dehumanized and attacks you desperately? We can help you think of a solution if we go in."

"I have the ability to protect myself and will not be hurt." Aurelius retorted.

"In case……"

Just when the two were in a stalemate, the ghost Xiwen silently floated between them.

"I said...have you forgotten my ability?" He looked at the two people who wanted to continue the debate speechlessly, and said helplessly. "I can ignore objects and travel, as long as I go in and open the portal.

, Wouldn’t it be great if I sent you there..."

"Then it's up to you, Strange." Dumbledore, who had already thought of this method, smiled at Sivan, then grabbed the arms of Aberforth and Aurelius, and fought over

Blushed and thick-necked, they pulled away to both sides of them.

Ghost Xiwen shrugged, lowered his body a little, and let his body sink into the ground to ensure that his head could be exactly at the entrance of the hole.

The white light of Nevalon lit up again, illuminating the narrow tunnel ahead. Then, the ghost Xiven floated forward along this tunnel.

This tunnel was obviously dug by reptiles - the tunnel is surrounded by very smooth and solid earth walls, which should have been formed by reptiles often passing through. In addition, there are occasionally remains of small animals left behind.

in.

This tunnel winds downward as a whole, and its length is also amazing. According to Xiwen's speed, it took about two minutes to finally reach the end of the tunnel, and what followed was a wide cave that suddenly opened up!

Under the light of Nevalon, a wide space appeared outside the tunnel - a strange cave filled with various stalagmites, stone pillars and stone curtains. A clear stream slowly flowed from the depths of the cave.

It flows out so clear that you can see the white stream bed.

In the deeper part of the cave, beside the stream, there are several exquisite stalagmites surrounding a flat stone, forming a lotus-like platform.

There is a big snake coiled on the lotus-shaped platform. Her body rises and falls occasionally, as if she is falling into a deep sleep.

Xiwen subconsciously held his breath.

Then, he realized that he didn't need to breathe, so he safely summoned a dimensional door and called Dumbledore and the others over.

"It's amazing that there is such a large cave here." Dumbledore took the lead to walk out from behind the portal and looked at the strange stalagmites and stone curtains around him with great interest.

While looking at it, he also saw the big snake coiled on the lotus-shaped platform.

"Aurelius, is that Nagini?" Dumbledore lowered his voice and asked Aurelius.

At this time, Aurelius's expression proved everything.

The excitement on his face was uncontrollable, and he shouted Nagini's name almost subconsciously.

"Nagini!"

The big snake was suddenly awakened by Aurelius's voice, and her body swayed slightly.

Aurelius walked forward with a complex look on his face, hesitating about success and failure. He never cared about stepping into the water on the ground or the stream, but walked slowly and firmly until he reached the side of the big snake.

Standing in front of the platform, he stretched out his hand tremblingly, trying to touch her tentatively.

Xiwen and others behind him watched his movements nervously, without saying a word or stepping forward to disturb him.

Everyone wants to know whether Nagini has really completely lost her humanity, and whether Aurelius can really awaken her consciousness?

Finally, Aurelius put his hand on the big snake's head and stroked it gently. The big snake didn't make any resistance movement, as if it was feeling his comfort.

However, just when everyone was quietly relieved, a sudden change occurred!

The big snake suddenly opened its mouth and bit Aurelius' hand hard!

Aurelius's right hand turned into a black mist and dispersed, and then reorganized in an instant. Although he did not suffer much physical damage, his expression was full of pain.

"Aurelius!" Aberforth immediately wanted to rush forward, but was blocked by Dumbledore.

"Tom, try your old tongue!" Dumbledore hugged Aberforth's shoulders tightly and shouted to Riddle at the same time.

Riddle opened his mouth and made a "hissing" sound knowingly, trying to talk to Nagini in a snake accent.

However, the frantic Nagini only paused for a moment, but then launched a further attack on Aurelius without being affected!

"The Snake's old tune has actually failed..." Riddle looked at the big snake that was still attacking non-stop in disbelief, with a confused look on his face.

"Perhaps it's a good thing that the old snake's accent has failed." At this time, Newt said loudly next to him. "This just proves that Nagini has not completely lost the 'human' part and has completely reduced to a viper!"

Then, he quickly opened his suitcase and released another magical animal.

Logically speaking, snakes cannot hear sounds and can only feel vibrations. But since Rowling has already written in a snake-like voice, we should forget about scientific rationality...
