"So, you fell into the trap yourself and want to drag me in? Humph, do you still have a sense of public morality?" Old Lu glared at Lockhart sideways and said with a sneer. "Sorry, we're closed today. Please be early tomorrow."
After saying that, he closed the door with a cold face. Anyway, with that old guy Dumbledore watching, nothing big could happen. If someone needs to be unlucky, it can only be this guy in front of him.
In the original book, Lockhart was washed away by memory and turned into an idiot because he used Ron's broken wand to cast a spell, which caused the magic to "forget everything" backfired on him. But Ron's bad wand has been replaced by the wand presented by Lu Yuan, and this incident will theoretically never happen again. And considering the worst case scenario, even if Lockhart is really cleared, it is not impossible to treat him. Lu Yuan didn't have any expectations for the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, so he really didn't bother to wade into this muddy water.
"I can pay for it." Lockhart anxiously grabbed the door handle and begged through the crack of the door.
"But I'm not short of money now." The initial stage of capital accumulation for Lao Lu Tantanshou has passed, and he has no motivation to make money. Don't talk about "small goals", after all, the total economic amount on the magic side is limited. In the outside world, Lu Yuan's money was accumulating at an avalanche speed, and then he invested the money crazily in heavy industry! The entire EU is benefiting from this. The result of this money is that heavy industry equivalent to a quarter of the German industry's production capacity is serving him.
So excuse me, now he's a damn rich guy.
"I can write a book! This time you will be the protagonist, and you can be called a celebrity like me!" Lockhart thought of another way. Unfortunately, Lao Lu simply shook his head and rejected his suggestion without hesitation, "Lockhart, I have no interest in becoming famous at all!"
"Don't waste time, Lockhart." Lu Yuan finally said, "I'll give you a suggestion, leave Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry immediately! Leave directly without even saluting. You can't go back to deal with that monster." After saying that, Lu Yuan directly pushed the door open.
"Bang!" The wooden door closed heavily in front of Lockhart.
A shadow fell on Lockhart's face. He leaned against the door, his lips trembling and his face as pale as transparency. Lockhart's body slumped along the wooden door little by little, and finally curled up into a ball under the door, his gorgeous green cloak rumpled and dragging on the bluestone floor.
"Help me, you are the only friend I have," Lockhart said in a low voice, frustrated. Yes, he came to Lu Yuan for help, not because of money or fame, but because of the few months of getting along with him, which made him regard Lu Yuan as his only friend. But he never spoke out. At this moment, Lockhart finally no longer looked like a peacock that always spread its tail, and became so helpless. It's just that his voice sounded more like mumbling.
But even he couldn't hear clearly, how could he expect Lu Yuan to hear it?
I don't know how long it took, maybe it was a few minutes, maybe it was a whole night, but a strong big hand slapped him hard on the shoulder!
"Alas" was followed by a sigh. "Lockhart! Lockhart." The hand grabbed the cloak and lifted him up, placing him on the chair in front of the door. Then a can of warm coffee was placed in front of him, followed by Lu Yuan who looked helpless. "I should have had dinner at this time, then read for a while by the warm fireplace, and finally went to bed on time, but now I have to go with you to deal with a basilisk that has lived for four hundred years!!"
"You, you agreed to go?! Lu, you are the best! The greatest, the greatest. Wait, you are saying that the monster running rampant in Hogwarts is a basilisk?!" His little face turned red again Although Shabai's ability as a pseudo-professional Lockhart is not good, he still has the knowledge he should have. Otherwise, I might run into the monster's lair one day.
And on the list of monsters that he must not touch, the basilisk is definitely at the top! Even if this kind of monster hasn't appeared again for hundreds of years!
Because this kind of black magic creature cultivated by a magician is extremely weird! It has a huge body that is fifty feet long, huge hopeless fangs, and a pair of giant yellow eyes that see who is dying! It can be said that the transformed dragons in the wizarding world today are not as scary as the basilisk because you can find dozens of books on how to subdue dragons, but what about how to defeat a basilisk? Sorry, I don’t have any!
There has never been a record of the basilisk being killed in history, but legend has it that the crowing of the rooster was fatal to the basilisk.
"That's right! It's a basilisk!" Lockhart suddenly realized after contacting several attacks that occurred at Hogwarts. "The descendant of Slytherin is a basilisk, and a basilisk can control a basilisk! Then it makes sense that the monster in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets is a basilisk. Looking directly into the eyes of a basilisk will kill, and those who are attacked students were just petrified?"
"Indirect contact with the basilisk's sight will lead to petrification. Lockhart, don't think about that." Lu Yuan pushed the coffee on the table towards him. "Warm your body first. You look like a pale ghost now. Now that we know that we are dealing with a basilisk, we must be fully prepared first. Going there directly will lead to death. You take a rest first. I just said something online I ordered a batch of equipment and it will take a few minutes for it to be delivered.”
"Equipment, you mean cock?" Lockhart came to life at this time, and his chatty nature began to awaken.
"Are you an idiot?" Lao Lu mocked. "Have you ever seen someone kill a basilisk with a cock?" Lockhart shook his head blankly. "You dare to take it seriously if I haven't seen it?! If the legend can be believed, sows can climb trees! Some people say that mice can deal with elephants. What happened? Whoever believes this is an idiot."
"Ah? Can't a mouse defeat an elephant?" Lockhart said with an expression like "You lied to me about something that everyone knows."
Lu Yuan could only roll his eyes speechlessly, "It's terrible to be uneducated. I don't have time to pay attention to you. My goods are about to arrive."
"Cargo?" Lockhart stretched his neck and looked around. The road under the hill could be seen very far away, and there was nothing there. The train to here runs every two days, and today there was no train coming to Hogsmeade Village at all. Therefore, “Where did the goods come from?”
"One minute countdown." He saw Lu Yuan take out a strange prop and point it at the sky. The object was flickering, and some kind of thin light appeared in the sky. "45, 44, 43, 42" Lu Yuan counted down and entered the coordinates into the handheld radar.
"3, 2, 1"
A heavy fighter plane passed by at low altitude. Bang, a white umbrella flower exploded in the sky above our heads. To be continued.
