Chinese students at Hogwarts
Chapter 46 The Eve of the Forbidden Forest
From the time he started eating dinner, Malfoy's already pale face had turned as white as paper. He began to talk to himself, comforting himself that the school would not let any harm come to students.
When Zhang Xiao heard this sentence, he looked at Cedric silently. If he wasn't lucky enough, the basilisk would have taken away at least three people in the secret room, plus a cat.
In his previous life, he had read many novels that said Hogwarts was a powerful magical creation. The principal could control the entire school and even monitor every corner.
An important point is the Hogwarts school motto "Leave the dragon alone".
But can the principal really detect the corners of the castle and not find the basilisk?
In fact, this school motto comes from Salazar Slytherin.
His father brought a dragon back from India and used a powerful sleeping spell to make it sleep in the dungeons of Hogwarts.
The young Slytherin, instigated by the Muggle children in Hogsmeade, took them to the dungeon to wake up the sleeping dragon.
The consequences were extremely tragic. All his Muggle friends died, and his mother also died in the dragon's mouth. Slytherin witnessed his mother wailing and screaming in the dragon's mouth.
So he took "Don't Disturb the Sleeping Dragon" as a school motto to warn his students not to touch things they can't control, and also to warn the dark wizards who tried to destroy Hogwarts that this is a sleeping dragon, don't come. Try to provoke it!
At eleven o'clock at night, Zhang Xiao and Malfoy said goodbye to their first-year friends, and then went upstairs to the foyer together. Filch was already waiting there.
Harry, Ron and Neville also walked from the direction of Gryffindor Tower with heavy faces.
Malfoy snorted coldly, turned his face to the side, and said in his unique accent:
"I thought you were so scared that you peed your pants and stayed in the lounge without coming over."
Ron snorted and retorted:
"Malfoy, I heard that you wrote twenty letters to your father, begging him not to go to the Forbidden Forest. It's a pity that Principal Dumbledore ignored your all-powerful father."
Malfoy's face turned red. He wanted to say something, but Filch had already shouted out:
"Shut up, you unruly bad boys! It's a shame they did away with the old ways of punishment.
Hang you by your wrists and hang you from the ceiling for several days.
I still have those chains in my office. I keep oiling them. Maybe they'll come in handy one day. Come on, don't think about escaping. If you run away, you will have no good fruit to eat. "
They strode across the dark field, Neville sniffling. Harry and Ron's breathing quickened.
Malfoy didn't speak, but Zhang Xiao could hear his teeth seeming to be making a "pah, pah, pah" sound.
The moonlight was very bright, but clouds kept coming over to cover the moon, plunging them into darkness. Soon they saw the bright lights not far away, which was Hagrid's hut.
Then, they heard a rough shout from afar:
"Is that you, Filch? Come on, I'm leaving."
Harry and Ron's breathing suddenly stopped. They couldn't help laughing and said excitedly:
"Hagrid! It's Hagrid!"
Maybe he couldn't stand their cheerful appearance.
Just listen to Filch say: "You probably thought you would have a good time with that idiot, right? (Note 1)
Boy, who do you think this stupid guy can protect in the Forbidden Forest?
Think about it again, boy - you are going to the Forbidden Forest!"
Then the lights flickered, and a vicious smile appeared on Filch's face. For him, watching these wizards suffer and even die seemed to be an extremely pleasant thing.
"Shut up! Filch! What right do you have to call Hagrid a fool? You don't know magic?"
Zhang Xiao glanced at him and asked coldly, and Harry Ron also glared at him.
Filch is a squib. He is pitiful, but it was not the little wizard who turned him into a squib. The hatred and jealousy from the heart made this administrator extremely ugly.
He could have chosen a different life, used his identity to become a broker who resold things between ordinary society and magical society, and lived a very prosperous and stable life.
Many squibs make this choice. To give you the simplest example, how much do you think those sports superstars who sadly retired due to ankles and knees are willing to pay for a bottle of Bone Spirit?
So since you have chosen to stay in the wizarding world and become the administrator of Hogwarts, but you hate those little wizards and try your best to make things difficult for them, what else is it if you are not a psychopath?
Filch's old, shriveled face became distorted. He stopped talking, cursed in a low voice, and even gave up on his duties. He held up a lantern and left without looking back without sending them to their place.
Ron and Harry quietly gave Zhang Xiao a thumbs up.
Zhang Xiao waved his hand and ignored this disgusting old squib. He raised his wand and fired a string of sparks into the sky, shouting loudly:
"Hagrid, we're here!"
The dull footsteps could only be heard getting closer and closer as Hagrid strode toward them from the darkness, Fang following behind. Hagrid carried his huge stone bow and a full quiver of arrows slung over his shoulder.
It must be said that Hagrid's oppressive figure made people feel safe at this moment.
"It's almost time," he said, "I've been waiting for half an hour. Hello, Zhang, Harry, Ron."
He looked around and asked doubtfully:
"Where's Filch? Didn't he say he sent you here?"
Ron rushed to say:
"Filch just called you an idiot, but Zhang scolded you and left!"
Hagrid let out a cold snort from his big furry head that was comparable to a tractor starting up:
"It's not worth it. That disgusting old cripple has been bullying me since I was in school. He also secretly told me why a monster like me, who is not a human being, can come to Hogwarts to go to school, but he can't."
The little wizards were stunned for a moment, not expecting that Filch would dare to say such a thing secretly.
Harry and Ron were so angry that they stepped forward to hug Hagrid, trying to comfort this honest old friend.
Hagrid waved his hand nonchalantly:
"It's all in the past, life must move forward! In addition to Filch, I have also met many good people, and Dumbledore trusts me. That's enough!
Let's go, time is running out! "
A group of people followed Hagrid to the edge of the Forbidden Forest. Hagrid stopped and his voice became serious:
"Listen, children, the Forbidden Forest is not peaceful recently. Although we are only wandering around the outermost perimeter this time, we may still encounter danger.
I don't know why Professor Dumbledore asked you to come to the Forbidden Forest, but it must have been his consideration. "
Malfoy asked tremblingly:
"What happened in the Forbidden Forest?"
Hagrid glanced at him and saw Zhang Xiao nodding, and then said in a rough voice:
“An uninvited guest came here recently, chasing unicorns, and some unicorns have already been lost.
So our mission is to find the trail or the unicorn, whatever. "
Zhang Xiao pinched his eyebrows. There was one thing he didn't say. He had had a vague feeling in his heart since the morning.
Something big may happen tonight!
