Return of Salazar Slytherin

Behind the snake door is a long, narrow dungeon. The walls and ceiling were made of rough stone, and a round, glowing green lamp hung from the ceiling on a chain.

There are dozens of carved chairs in the common room, as well as many sofas and coffee tables for students to rest on, decorated with skulls of various unknown creatures.

The dungeon extends all the way down to the bottom of the Black Lake. As a common room located in the dungeon, the Slytherin common room has a view of the Black Lake from the window.

Reflected by the lake, the room takes on a green hue.

Despite the roaring fire beneath an ornately carved mantel, the common room seemed dark and cold.

The layout of the lounge has not changed much from a thousand years ago, except that the light is a little dimmer because it is night now.

To be honest, Rhys finds it a little too humid every time he comes here. It's okay to come in with a young body now, but it will be really painful to come to such a humid place when you are older.

But there is nothing I can do about it.

Who told me to have bad luck in drawing lots in the first place?

…

.....

"This tower is nice, with a wide view and good lighting. The common room of Gryffindor House should be here."

"My students have a need to observe the stars, it is only natural that the Ravenclaw lounge should be placed in the tower."

"So you two decided to go for the tower, so the front and underground of the school have been abandoned?!" Slytherin glared at Gryffindor and Ravenclaw, his beard standing on end with anger.

"Look! The floor pattern really looks nice."

"Ah, how did I not notice the grandness of the ceiling all this time!?"

Rowena and Godric: (￢з￢)

Rowena and Godric turned their attention elsewhere. One of them became very interested in the floor pattern, while the other suddenly paid attention to the splicing of the ceiling.

In front of them was a miniature version of Hogwarts Castle.

The castle is very exquisitely made, even the number of glass windows on the tower windows are perfectly reproduced. Looking through the windows, you can see desks, chairs, fireplaces, chandeliers and other furniture.

Of course, such an exquisite model was not built by the four founders, but was reproduced to the same proportions using magic. Not to mention the layout of various furniture, even the pattern of the floor tiles is exactly the same.

The model was about the size of a sheep, standing on the table and turning slowly.

The founders were quarreling over the location of their respective House lounges.

Everyone wants to live in a bright, atmospheric, and well-lit tower for themselves and their students, but for the safety of the castle, a sufficient number of people must be placed at the bottom of the castle. If the common rooms of the four houses were all built on towers, Hogwarts would be extremely passive in case of invasion by foreign enemies.

The best plan is - for some people to live on the tower. When they climb up and look out, they can immediately detect abnormalities in the distance. Some people live near the first floor, responsible for guarding the castle gate and responding quickly when intruders invade.

So the question is, who will guard the gate? It's okay for the founders to suffer a little, but this decision will obviously require their students to make great sacrifices, and they cannot be generous to others.

The friends discussed it and finally decided to draw lots.

The result of the draw was that Slytherin and his students were responsible for suppressing the dungeons, Hufflepuff guarded the main entrance hall of the castle, and Gryffindor and Ravenclaw moved into the tower as they wished.

"Actually, there is nothing wrong with living in a dungeon. My students can see the beautiful scenery under the Black Lake. This is the only wonder in Britain." Slytherin, who won the lottery, said.

As a wizard, Salazar Slytherin was obviously not a qualified architect. The concept of the common room below the lake is indeed good, but it is a pity that it was only after the students moved in that they discovered that the place was extremely humid, to the point where magic was needed to dehumidify it.

But what else can be done? The result of the lottery has been settled, and Slytherin is too embarrassed to argue with his old friends anymore, so he can only show his cool and maintain dignity by saying that the lake view is super cool, and use magic to change the air in the common room every day to keep the overall humidity under control within an acceptable range.

...

...

Bringing his mind back to the present, Rhys noticed that the ventilation system he designed thousands of years ago was still functioning normally, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of joy - running an immortal magic system for thousands of years? was it something the other three founders could do?

I admit that I have bad luck in drawing lots, but my level of magic is obviously higher!

After all the freshmen walked into the common room, the door closed automatically and returned to its stone wall appearance.

While Rhys was distracted, Prefect Gemma began to give a speech to the freshmen. When he came back to his senses, the speech was almost over.

"...There are some things you may need to know. Bloody Baron is the ghost of our House. He is a good man, or a good ghost *ehm*, but please remember not to ask about the origin of the blood on him"

(Rhys: I definitely want to ask )

"The password for the common room changes every two weeks, so please keep an eye on the notice board. Bringing anyone from other houses into the common room is a no-no! It has not been broken for over seven centuries. !"

Hearing this, Rhys couldn't help being extremely shocked.

He remembered clearly that this was not the case when Hogwarts was first founded.

It was extremely common for students from the four houses to hang out in each other's common rooms. Some young men and women who had reached their age would even visit each other.

They did things they should do at that age.

Godric even cast a spell to prevent boys from entering the girls' dormitory at night but they were spared to join in the mornings.

But based on the feedback given to him by his students, Rhys found that Gryffindor's spell seemed to be of little use - would any boy really go to the girls' dormitory to 'date' his girlfriend? Most of the time, there are a few enthusiastic little wizards who "volunteer" to guard the vacant rooms of the castle at night while the couples 'meet'.

Rhys had never thought that unexpectedly, a thousand years later, the gap between the various houses would be so great that no one has visited the common room for seven hundred years, and it would be regarded as something worthy of showing off!

Although it's good for the little kids to not go dating and focus on studying... but seriously? No one has visited the Slytherin common room for the past seven hundred years. Isn't this really being isolated?

What Rhys didn't know was that Slytherin's situation was not an isolated case. Hufflepuff next door was even more outrageous. They claimed that no outsider had ever visited their common room in thousands of years - They really didn't know that Helga invited other grown-up students over for a drink to their common room. Rowena Ravenclaw also invited other houses for a tea party and was classified as a tea goddess by them.

"Okay, that's all I want to say. I believe you will like our common room. Good night everyone, and I wish you a good sleep."

The rumored drama of "a duel between freshmen to separate shadow prefects or Leaders for the first-year class" was not carried out. Prefect Gemma ended her speech calmly and began to lead the freshmen to their dormitories.

Gemma first led the girls to their dormitories and then led the boys to the other side of the common room. After going around a few times in the not-so-wide corridor, they finally arrived.
