Hogwarts, was gnawed at the beginning

I don’t know if it was because of Suer’s persuasion, or if Hagrid really figured it out.

In the new Care of Magical Creatures course, Hagrid finally stopped asking them to continue using tweezers to stuff vegetable leaves into the mouth of the Flobber caterpillar.

He distributed a small jar of worms to all the little wizards. Fortunately, they were all half-dead, otherwise the little witches would have screamed.

"Today, we are going to the Forbidden Forest."

After Hagrid distributed the jars, he announced the news to the students. Without exception, thanks to the numerous warnings and threats from Dumbledore and other professors, almost most of the young wizards regarded the Forbidden Forest as a wolf. Tiger and leopard.

Not to mention that some young wizards, in order to brag about themselves, said that they had seen werewolves, fire dragons, dark wizards, giant spiders bigger than buildings, etc. in the Forbidden Forest.

The combination of many factors caused the little wizards to show panic when they knew that they were going to the Forbidden Forest today.

Not far away, the forest that seemed dark even in broad daylight looked even more eerie.

Sur didn't care. He had no fear of the Forbidden Forest. He even set a fire in it last school year.

"Don't worry." Hagrid noticed that the expressions of the students changed. "We are only teaching on the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest. The main reason is that the content of today's class is a bit strange."

"Come on, follow me. As long as you follow me closely, there will be no danger."

"It's not easy to find them."

Hagrid led the way, and the little wizards looked at each other, until Hagrid walked for a while and felt that there was no one behind him, so he turned back and waved in confusion.

"Come here, we don't have much time in this class."

Soul shrugged his shoulders and followed up with steps. With the leader, the little wizards struggled to keep up with Hagrid's pace.

The danger in the Forbidden Forest is relative. At least according to Hagrid, the Weasley brothers were caught by him in the Forbidden Forest more than once. However, the two brothers are also very smart. They will never go deep into the Forbidden Forest. Gather wool around the outside.

There are few dangers in the outer Forbidden Forest. One of the responsibilities of the centaurs is to guard the outer periphery to guard against dangerous creatures running out from the depths, or young wizards running in.

Creatures like fire dragons definitely don't exist, but it's hard to say for werewolves and the like.

Oh, I almost forgot about the Acromantula... After all, it has a four-star danger rating.

Going too far, Hagrid led the little wizards around in circles. The increasingly darker trees and grass made them more frightened. The occasional rustling noises and occasional coughs on the roadside made them nervous.

A dozen little wizards hugged each other for warmth and followed behind, shivering.

Soul is not interested in the fragrant little witch. It should be said that he has Hermione, so he should be as clean as jade.

Just kidding, he was chatting with Hagrid.

"Where have all the big spiders gone? Hagrid, I didn't even see any spider webs along the way."

"What's wrong?" Hagrid knocked on the grass next to him with a stick, and a snake sprang out and left very quickly. "The explosion last year almost destroyed this forest. Do you want to do it again?"

"Aragog is already very old. Don't mess with him." Hagrid's voice was muffled.

"How can we?" Surgan laughed, "There was a reason last year. Those spiders wanted to eat me and Harry. I couldn't resist at all, right? I just set a fire, who I know there was an explosion..."

Sur's words were reasonable. Did Hagrid know that the group of Acromantulas only gave him a little face because of Aragog? They wouldn't hurt him, but it didn't mean that they were not interested in the meat that came to him. As for those spiders, Hagrid Ge couldn't understand it better.

"Then ask them what they want to do." Hagrid kept banging on them with a stick and asked Sur's purpose.

Of course, Soul wanted to find some spiders to practice his skills with, and by the way, he wanted to get some venom and sell it to the Diagon Alley magic shop to earn some pocket money.

Of course, the deliciousness of spider legs is not to be missed. As a glorious Hufflepuff, the pursuit of delicious food is from beginning to end. The little badger just wants to eat it, so what bad intentions can he have?

However, this cannot be said to Hagrid.

"I want to apologize to Aragog. I didn't do it intentionally for the explosion last time." Suer gave a random reason.

Hagrid at least had an above-average IQ, so he certainly wouldn't be so naive as to believe Sule's statement and just want to apologize.

"No need." Hagrid snorted, "They moved away, and they don't really want to see you again. They have lived in that forest for more than 20 years, and you burned it down. If you show up again, they will kill you." You have it all in your heart.”

Where did you move to?Suer just wanted to know the answer to this question so that he could satisfy his little ninety-nine.

But no matter how he tried to test, Hagrid always spoke vaguely and remained tight-lipped about the new home location of the Acromantulas. But Suer also heard that Hagrid had definitely gone to find them, and the new location was probably arranged by Hagrid himself. .

"Okay, okay, don't ask, I won't tell you." Hagrid knew that the more he talked, the more mistakes he made. He stopped the topic in time and moved the stick to the grass blocking them. A tease.

"We have arrived."

Hagrid helped the little wizards hold down the grass so that they could get through one by one and avoid being scratched by the thorns on the grass blades.

Without exception, they were all surprised by the scene in front of them.

The place where Hagrid stood seemed to be a dividing line. From there to the grass in front of them, it was no longer a deep green, but a bright green full of vitality.

From the angle where they stood, they could even see the towers of Hogwarts Castle. Hagrid took them in a large circle from the outside to another outside.

This is a lawn planted with several sparse and strange-looking trees. Without exception, they are all very lush. The wind brings the fragrance of green grass, which makes the little wizards who were frightened all the way breathe a sigh of relief.

"They're all here. There's no one left, right? Meet here." Hagrid confirmed the number of people, put down the stick, and clapped his hands.

The little wizards crowded over.

"Does anyone know these trees?" Hagrid pointed to the trees on the lawn with a smile to the little wizards.

The little wizards all shook their heads. When they came, they saw that these were just some strange-looking trees.

"Okay." Hagrid shook his head, "This is where our class will be held. Don't worry, it's definitely not life-threatening. But if you don't listen carefully, there may be a risk of your hair being pulled out."

"Those trees, they may have different names, but they can all be collectively called the Protector Tree."

"Can someone tell me what the Dharma Protector Tree is?" Hagrid asked expectantly.

Sure enough, in terms of knowledge, few wizards from other colleges can compare with Ravenclaw. A little eagle raised his hand.

"It is a kind of magical tree. They are generally used to make pendants or amulets to protect people from being attacked by dark creatures. Sometimes, wand makers also use talisman trees to make wands."

"That's right, I can't say it more clearly than you. Five points for Ravenclaw." Hagrid nodded, not hesitating the power of bonus points in his hand, "You may be confused, I will take you into the Forbidden Forest. , taking risks just to get to know these trees, right?”

Several young wizards nodded in agreement.

"No." Hagrid shook his head, "Students, we are studying the Care of Magical Creatures class, not the Herbology class or the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, haha."

Hagrid thought it was a joke, but no little wizard actually laughed out loud.

"Okay." He scratched his head awkwardly, "Next question, what creatures live in the guardian tree for a long time? Sur, you can answer this question."

"Uh... Bowtruckle?"

"That's right." Hagrid waved his hand with satisfaction and gave Hufflepuff five points. "Now, please take out the jar I gave you before entering the Forbidden Forest."

"Next, let's get in touch with these magical little beings. If you are lucky enough and polite enough, I think they will definitely not mind giving you some feedback." Hagrid winked mischievously at the little wizards.

"This is one of the species that lives in the Forbidden Forest. For safety, they often move. This is the place I found after looking for a long time."

"Come on, don't be afraid. They are all very well-behaved creatures. If you accidentally anger them, they will be happy to forgive you with just a few bugs. However, be careful with your hair and arms and don't get scratched. hurt."

Hagrid took the lead, followed by a dozen little wizards who looked surprised and expectant.

"Dong-dong." This was the sound of Hagrid walking to a tree and tapping the trunk with a stick. "Little guys, are you at home? You've come out to welcome the guests."

Smoothly...

Several little tree men with leaves on their heads poked their heads out from the dense branches and leaves, and you could clearly see the doubts and curiosity in their eyes.

"grumble?"

ps: There is another chapter, I am working hard to code it.
