Chapter 84: The Battle of the Serpent Spirit (1)
Suddenly, a blinding light flashed, a flash of lightning streaked across the roof, and a thunderstorm began outside. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info It rains like this in winter, which does not conform to the laws of nature. But this is the world of magic, and perhaps some unknown creature has changed the trajectory of the world through its powerful magic.
Xie An looked at Qiu Zhang not far away, and Qiu also looked at this side with tacit understanding. The two men met their gazes, and then, without looking away. Qiu's eyes were a little sad and a little reproachful, and there were some things that Xie An didn't understand, and Xie An's eyes only cared.
What is selfishness and what is love, Xie An has never understood.
"Luna, you and Qiu will be together for a while, remember, follow me, don't do anything without my instructions. Xie An whispered to Luna.
Professor McGonagall's plan was set off tomorrow, not long before Christmas, the time of the traditional Christmas shopping in England, the opening of Hogsmeade was just around the corner, and the quiet wizarding village was suddenly bustling.
"My dad wrote to me this morning, hoping you would come with me next weekend when our Hogsmeade Hotel opens. Xie An walked up to Qiu and looked at Qiu, he hadn't opened his mouth yet, Qiu said first.
"Oh, yes, yes, maybe the Earl has time, I'll go then. Xie An looked at Qiu, who bowed his head slightly, although Qiu was already a second-generation immigrant, he still had the unique temperament of an oriental woman.
"Well, that's good. Qiu wanted to turn around and leave, Xie An grabbed Qiu's arm, Qiu trembled slightly, closed his eyes, but did not look back.
"You're going to stay with Luna tomorrow. After a moment of silence, Xie An said in a low voice.
Hearing Xie An's calm and cold words, the grievances and dissatisfaction during this period seemed to turn into balloons that blew up in an instant, expanding and filling Qiu Xiaoxiao's heart. Qiu trembled even more, didn't answer, and shook his arm vigorously, trying to escape from Xie An's side.
"Answer me, do you hear that?" Xie An did not let go, but continued to say in a low and serious voice.
"Why should I listen to you?" Qiu stopped struggling, trying to keep herself from crying, and then tried to speak calmly in a familiar tone.
Xie An didn't answer, his arm bent, and his strength suddenly increased, directly pulling Qiu back into his arms. Qiu anxiously wanted to retreat, but obviously couldn't escape his control, struggled a few times, turned sideways, and didn't look at Xie An. Xie An let out a cold snort, put his hands on Qiu's shoulders, and whispered: "You may think that not being by my side now is the biggest pain, but have you ever thought about what it will be like in the future if you stay by my side?
Qiu's stiff body relaxed, slowly stopped trembling, she looked up at Xie An, at this time Xie An's eyes were clear and free of impurities, but the coldness and destruction contained in them were more clearly displayed.
A burning soul that has been completely frozen in stone, a downright pessimist, who doesn't believe that the future will get better, and just wants to have fun in time. Autumn felt like she was burned by that icy cold.
In a sense, the oriental classical temperament has made Qiu, but also bound Qiu, she doesn't have the courage to chase such a maverick heart full of unknowns, and she doesn't want to have a relationship that will be destroyed at any time, during this time, the sound of the whole world collapsing around her, she can no longer bear it.
Qiu instantly understood that it was not Xie An's ruthlessness and coldness that caused all this tragedy, he had love for her, but because of this love, he chose to give her freedom.
"What do you know, bastard? You don't even understand what I'm thinking, you self-righteous bitch! I'll have my own choice, I don't need you to teach me. Qiu didn't let Xie An wait long, she roared and said to Xie An. This made all the students who had not yet left look at this place in surprise, and even the Aurors looked at their younger brothers and sisters curiously.
Xie An was surprised. This is not in accordance with the law.
"You, you..." The stunned Xie An was speechless for a moment, Hermione looked at this place with a frown from afar, and Penelope seemed to want to come over and say something.
Remember, I'm not your thing, and you can't make a choice for me, even if you want to break up in the future, it can only be me who dumps you, you can't bring it up first, you know?" Qiu's face turned red, but he still yelled at Xie An loudly.
Professor McGonagall looked at this, but when she heard Autumn's words, she smiled happily, Flitwick seemed a little embarrassed, as if there was no school rule that the student was so open about his early love, and the head of Ravenclaw decided to go back and study the school rules again.
The Aurors let out laughter, and one of the female Aurors whistled and said in a laugh-in-the-dark voice, "That's right, junior, teach these damned men a lesson and let them know who is the master!"
Xie An, who was caught off guard by Qiu's unexpected outburst, stayed in place in a daze, and Qiu shook off Xie An's hands on his shoulders, turned his head and strode away.
The twins stood on either side of Xie An, one on the left and one on the right.
"Who is that beauty, so beautiful, if only she could be my girlfriend. Fred said.
"I heard that it's the Quidditch princess of Ravenclaw, but she's already famous, but it's a pity. George said.
"Ahh ”
"No, what's the matter? I just heard that she sometimes punches and kicks her husband, which is very savage, but I didn't expect it to be true. ”
"Poor and pitiful, I don't know that unlucky ghost has become her boyfriend, I'm afraid I will be a punching bag for the rest of my life. The twins shook their heads together and sighed, making a look of pity and pity.
"Pay back. Xie An said to the twins with a dull face.
"No, Andrew, last time we were together... Well, that night, didn't you just forgive our debt this year? Why do you ask for debt again? The twins hurriedly stopped taunting.
"There is no evidence, what you say doesn't count, in short, pay back!"
"Bloodyhell, Andrew, it's okay, we have a witness, I don't believe Hermione can be as shameless, black-hearted capitalist as you. ”
"Yes, Andrew, you can be careful, I'm afraid I'll eat you to death in one autumn, plus the incomparably smart Gryffindor's future Minister of Magic, I think you will have a long hard life in the future!"
"Then you two don't have to worry about it, give me nonsense again, I'll hang both of you on the roof of the house, and now disappear immediately!" Xie An said angrily.
"Okay, boss, you're ruthless, we'll leave now. The twins left with a hippie smile.
The next morning, all the students woke up early. The first-year students had finished their roll call and were led out of the castle by Hagrid and the divination professor, and when they went out, no one was given a sandwich for breakfast.
The prefect and a few professors personally allowed the students to stay in the passageway on the third and first floors, and Professor Flitwick talked to them one by one, explaining what needed attention.
All the remaining students were asked to stay in a few towers of the castle, where they had a good business and could see the whole castle, but it was a little cold.
Qiu and Luna stayed together, the two talked in a low voice, Qiu quietly looked at Xie An a few times, and found that what he said yesterday seemed to have a good effect. Xie An stood in front of the two of them, quietly looking at the window on the second floor. The professors had determined that the entrance to the chamber was in the prefect's bathroom on the second floor.
"I don't know how the professors are going to lure the basilisk out of the secret room, could it be that there are snake whisperers among them?" Xie An muttered to himself in a low voice.
"Of course, the man with the gray turban was the Auror who had been hired from the Indian Ministry of Magic, the Serpent Whisperer in charge of the operation. Malfoy stood beside Shea and whispered.
"Draco? interesting, I've seen you and Goyle together all this time, and today it's still the two of you, but it's Crabbe. Where's your henchman?" Xie An asked softly, glancing at Draco slightly.
Malfoy's face didn't change in the slightest, and Crabbe glanced at Xie An a little nervously.
"We have a common interest, don't we, little count of Muggles?" Malfoy replied coldly.
Xie An stared at Draco for a moment, not seeing anything unusual, "Yes, I think your dad has already told you, and we are indeed working towards a goal at the moment. ”
"Well, you understand that, and if something happens in a moment, I hope you can remember that we still have a common interest. Draco said with a gloomy face.
Since Xie An beat Malfoy with his fist last time, Malfoy has rarely taken the initiative to appear in front of Xie An, and this time Malfoy's action made Xie An can't help but be impressed by him.
Malfoy grew a lot.
"Yes, you're right, cooperation between allies is a must. But before that, don't you think you should share a little bit of information with me?" Xie An asked sincerely.
Draco turned his head to look at Xie An, thought for a moment before saying, "Let's go to the second floor together in a moment, I think Professor Flitwick should allow you to watch this battle up close." ”
Xie An did not answer immediately, but stared at Malfoy's eyes for a while, the Deception was too heavy a burden for Xie An who wanted to block those hellish memories, he had no way to risk practicing at all, he could only judge through observation and experience.
"Okay, no problem, I have that idea too. Xie An replied. (To be continued.) )
