Chapter 29: Stories of Our Ancestors

Friday, September 1991, 9, 6 o'clock.

This is a small cabin on the edge of the forbidden forest.

A field behind the cabin grew pumpkins and lentils.

There is a stone bow and a pair of rubber galoshes in front of the gate.

Living inside is the invisible rich man of Hogwarts, the master of magical animal hybrids, the half-blood giant wizard Hagrid and his cowardly big dog Fang.

Harry knocked on the door.

Together with Ron, I listened curiously to the barking of dogs and Hagrid's voice inside.

Hermione followed closely beside Basil, looking at the forbidden forest nearby with interest.

Bagir's mind was wandering, and his thoughts returned to the three-headed dog that he had tried to use to make a summoning card not long ago.

The price of 5000 gems was prohibitive for him.

He currently has only 16865.477 gems.

Harry, Ron, Draco, Hagrid, and Neville, who have not been produced yet, will cost 5000.

Not to mention, it costs 3 to travel across the world to recycle components.

Although judging from the fact that one only needs to pay a cross-border fee of 100 gems to die in another world, this is not a one-way ticket and may even be a permanent passage.

But I’m not rich at the moment.

With a creak, the door opened.

Hagrid opened the door a crack, revealing his large bearded face.

"Wait a minute," he said. "Stay back, Yaya."

Seeing that there were four people coming, he took a big step back and opened the door completely.

He held in his arms a black hound half the size of Ron, whose tail was wagging constantly.

The cabin has only one room.

There were hams and pheasants hanging from the ceiling, a copper kettle boiling water in a brazier, and a pink floral umbrella leaning against the wall.

There was a large bed in the corner, with a quilt made of scraps of cloth.

It doesn't look luxurious and is totally unworthy of Hagrid's identity as an invisible rich man.

But that's just at first glance.

In Bagir's subsequent observation, he discovered that under the bedding there was a mattress made of the fur of an unknown creature.

Moreover, the silk threads at the joints emit silver light and are as white as pearls.

This is clearly the tail hair of a unicorn.

10 Galleons per stick!
That is 50 pounds, which is 91 yuan based on the exchange rate in 400!

At that time, the average salary in China was only 195 yuan!
"This is the tail hair of a unicorn!" Bagir pointed out without any hesitation.

Hagrid, who was busy pouring boiling water into a large teapot and putting rock biscuits on a plate, looked up.

"Oh, it's unicorn hair," he said carelessly, "pulled from its tail, and caught on a branch in the forest..."

"The Galloping Gorgon!" Ron turned his head one step at a time as if his neck was stuck.

The hand that was trying hard to resist Yaya licking his ear also stretched forward and turned into Erkang's hand.

"Hagrid, you know how much that's worth!"

A unicorn's tail hair is four or five feet long, and only one tail hair is needed to make a magic wand.

Ron felt very complicated as he touched the unicorn tail hair wand that came from his brother Charlie.

"I use it to bandage animals when they're hurt," said Hagrid, shrugging. "It works great... and it's very strong, and it makes a good suture, too, you see."

"Can I take some away?" Bagel coughed. "I want to practice my knitting skills and make a glove with them. It should be quite light and thin."

Hagrid nodded casually and pulled away the ham and pheasant hanging from the ceiling. A bunch of long, soft and smooth white hair appeared in everyone's eyes.

He pulled it off and handed it to Bagir.

"That's all. Is that enough?"

"Enough, enough." Bagir gently stroked the fleshy tail hair, like stroking the skin of a lover.

This is all money!

No matter where you are, women's money is the easiest to make.

The main ingredient of the beauty potion is unicorn tail hair.

The potion material shop also sells it for 10 Galleons a bag, but it is the mane, which is not as effective as the tail hair, and even if you add them together, they may not be as long as the tail hair.

Except that Ron would look enviously at the white hair wrapped around Basil's wrist from time to time.

The subsequent development seems to be almost the same as in the movie.

Hagrid took the lead in complaining about Filch and his cat.

Harry and Ron took the opportunity to talk about Snape.

Harry said Snape hated him.

Hagrid avoided Harry's gaze and topic, and determined that Harry's guess was false.

However, Hermione, who had been looking at Bagel stupidly, spoke at this time.

"I know why."

"Professor Snape once said something strange in the Sorting Waiting Room. I went to find out more about it later out of curiosity."

Hagrid wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Son, let's talk about something else."

Harry, "Go on, I want to know why he hates me so much!"

Ron: "Me too."

Basil put his hand on Hagrid's shoulder. "This can't be kept secret. If Hermione knows about it, how can you guarantee that Harry doesn't know about it? At least you are here."

Seeing that Hagrid had calmed down, Hermione looked at Basil with admiration and continued, "I learned from the portrait that Snape and Harry's mother were once a couple. Harry's father often teamed up with his three friends to target him because of this. Later, for some reason, Snape and Harry's mother fell out. Harry's father took advantage of the situation."

"Three? My dad is someone like Dudley?" Harry was in a trance. "Hagrid, I thought you said that I look exactly like my dad."

He suddenly brought Snape into himself.

A father who looks like Dudley, and friends who look like Pierre, Morken, and Gordon.
"What's the name of their group? James's Army (Dudley's four-member gang is called Dudley's Army)?"

Hagrid quickly explained, "They're called the Marauders. And James isn't that kind of person! At most, they like to make fun of people!"

"Like Fred and George?" Harry's eyes flashed with hope.

Hagrid began to stammer, "It was much more extreme. But the school environment was not like that back then! The You-Know-Who was wreaking havoc outside, and almost all Slytherin students were Death Eater candidates. The conflicts between students were also much more brutal! Everyone liked James and his friends! They regarded them as heroes. Because most of the people they joked about were Slytherin students and those close to them."

"That's just how Snape is." Harry's tone became much more relaxed.

Hagrid's eyes wandered.

"Your father and the others think so, right? But in my opinion, Snape just grew up in the Muggle world and didn't understand the situation in the wizarding world at the time. He made the mistake of choosing Slytherin. And he maintained a friendship with Lily, who was also a Muggle-born, in the following years. He is not actually a bad person."

He tried to find some good words, but none of them worked for Snape.

"And Lily is kind-hearted, has excellent grades, and is liked by all the teachers. In the eyes of your father and his friends, Snape is undoubtedly a stain on your mother. Plus, Snape seemed to be at odds with them on the train, so -"

He thought Snape had always been Dumbledore's spy, and did not mention that Snape was also close to Avery and Mulciber, who later joined the Death Eaters and often used dark magic to play horrific jokes.

Avery and Mulciber also tried to kill Lily's friend Mary.

He mistakenly believed that Sirius was a traitor, and he even thought that Snape and James had always been like this, and that it was the despicable Sirius who was behind it.

But he couldn't say these words to Harry.

This is so cruel.

Original novel: [“…Thought we were supposed to be friends?” Snape was saying, “Best friends?”

"That's right, Sev, but I don't like those guys you hang around with! Sorry, but I hate Avery and Mulciber! What do you think is good about him, Sev? Sneaky! Do you know what he wanted to do to Mary MacDonald the other day?"

Lily walked to a pillar and leaned against it, looking up at the thin, gray face.

"That's nothing," said Snape. "It was just a joke, nothing -"

"That's dark magic. If you think that's fun—"


"How could she marry him?" said Harry sadly. "She hates him!"

"No, she doesn't hate James," said Sirius.

"She started hanging out with James in seventh year," said Lupin.

"Because James is less arrogant," said Sirius.

"And because he no longer casts spells on people for fun," said Lupin.

"Even Snape?" said Harry.

"Well," said Lupin slowly, "Snape is a special case. I mean,

He never misses a chance to curse James, so you can't really expect James not to resist, right? ”】

This is not my second design.
