Chapter 247: Prophecy from the Centaurs
Coming out of Snape's office, Zhang Xu estimated that it was almost ten o'clock in the evening and that Fleur should be back in the dormitory, so he sneaked to the screaming shack to call Fleur.
It took a long time for the phone to be answered.
"Fleur was kidnapped by me." A deep male voice said after the phone was connected.
"Can I redeem her with a bottle of Guilin Sanhua wine that has been cellared in Elephant Trunk Mountain for thirty years?" Zhang Xu made an offer to the kidnappers opposite.
"Ten bottles." The kidnappers offered their own price.
"Two bottles." Zhang Xu bargained with the kidnappers.
After some fierce bargaining, Zhang Xu finally redeemed Furong from Tonya's clutches with four bottles of Guilin Sanhua wine that had been cellared for 30 years and a table of Lipu taro button meat, vinegar blood duck, beer fish, bitter gourd stuffing, etc.
After chatting for a few words, Zhang Xu learned that after Fleur went to Tonya's place for two days on the weekend, Tonya also took two days off to accompany Fleur.
Fleur went to school alone, thousands of miles away from home, with very different customs and habits from where she used to live, and unlike Tonya, whose parents worked at her university, she would inevitably be lonely before making new friends.
Zhang Xu was like this when he first arrived at Hogwarts, even if he was in his forties, but in such an environment of internal and external troubles, he was under tremendous psychological pressure.
He felt that he might collapse like this one day, and then simply pulled Quirrell into the principal's office and ripped off his scarf from Yiwu Trade City in front of Lao Deng.
Fortunately, there was a lot of work to do at Hogwarts at that time, which distracted him. And there is Zhang Qiu by his side to talk to him, he usually acted with his aunt at the beginning, so some people would think that the two of them had a leg at that time.
Comparing his heart to his heart, Zhang Xu expressed his gratitude to Dong Nia for this move, so he promised to invite her to a drink after returning to China.
As for Tonya changing her voice to scare him, Zhang Xu said that you have become a voice but you can't change your accent.
Not to mention that the country is now vigorously fighting and paying close attention to public security in the local area, Furong's own combat effectiveness alone is not low, coupled with the terrifying connections behind Zhang Xu, Furong can make a cameo appearance as the president of the domineering president Wen. So Zhang Xu is very relieved about Furong's safety in China.
Sometimes Zhang Xu himself is complaining about himself, I can obviously be the protagonist of urban literature, but why did I run to the "Harry Potter" fandom to develop?
After Tonya chatted with Zhang Xu for a while, she returned the phone to Fleur.
As a result, Fleur broke a big news, Tonya didn't come to accompany her, because she had a boyfriend not long ago, and her boyfriend happened to be running errands at Fleur's school recently, so she came along.
Before Zhang Xu could gossip about who the other party was, the phone hung up in a burst of sisters' slapping panting.
Zhang Xu estimated that the two of them would have to fight for a long time, so he put down his phone and returned to Hogwarts.
Zhang Xu, who returned to Hogwarts, did not join in the excitement of celebrating Harry Potter's first victory in the maze, but went to the Forbidden Forest and went to the centaur tribe to exchange for something.
Holding two walking mushrooms more than half a meter high that came out during the day and slept at night after a chance encounter on the road, Zhang Xu came to McTosh's house.
McTosh is ready to become an adult, and now he spends most of his time with his parents in the depths of the Forbidden Forest to study his future work, his grandmother and older sisters have afternoon tea, and only his two younger sisters, Jia'er and Lili, are at home.
Giving gifts to the horses has always been a headache for Zhang Xu. It is naturally not appropriate to give them industrialized products that advocate nature. Their daily necessities were made from sturdy originals, which were very sturdy and durable, and the wooden furniture in the McTosh family was about the same age as Dumbledore. And the weapons of the horses are given by the elders of the tribe, and others do not accept them from others.
Therefore, every time Zhang Xu came to visit, he simply picked some mushrooms, fruits and other foods on the road as gifts.
Because of their physical shape, the horses have furniture that is very different from that of humans, except for the dining table and cabinets.
Moreover, the horses do not use stools, and the low stools that Zhang Xu sat on when he ate with them were still public goods in the village, and they would only be taken out when guests who walked upright with their legs approved by the horsemen came to visit.
Because Zhang Xu would come to McTosh's house as a guest in two or three months, there was a low stool that was simply placed directly in their house.
Every time he looked at the rough and old wooden stool, Zhang Xu wondered if one of the founders of Hogwarts had ever sat on it.
Facts have proved that "moe" can exist across worlds and species.
At the beginning, after Zhang Xu showed off his Animagus form in front of Jia'er and Lili, turning into a giant panda and playing with the two centaur Lori became a compulsory course for him every time he came to the centaur tribe.
When the two centaur Lori rubbed their satisfaction on the silky fur of the giant panda, Ferenze brought a message from the elder to see Zhang Xu.
Ferenze said that the elder had a prophecy to tell him and invited him to the temple.
Ferencze is the most familiar centaur in the centaur tribe except for the McTosh family and Zhang Xu.
Zhang Xu met Quirrell possessed by Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest when he was in his first grade.
At first, Zhang Xu was worried that he would be disgusted by disassembling the unicorn's parts, but Ferenze said that Zhang Xu's removal of the unicorn's internal organs was just like a scavenger in the Forbidden Forest eating the carcasses of other animals, in the eyes of the centaurs.
The houses of the centaurs are made of stone or logs, and they are all simple houses with rough lines, and then decorated with various flowers and plants.
The temple, located in the heart of the Centaur tribe, is said to have been built with the help of the four founders of Hogwarts, who gained the friendship of the Centaurs.
The height of this temple is two or three times that of an ordinary centaur house, and it can be said to be imposing.
The Centaur Temple is where generations of Centaur elders have lived and worked, and its status is equivalent to that of 10 Downing Street and the White House.
In one of the rooms of the temple, the Centaur Elder knelt at a table, and Zhang Xu walked in and greeted him, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Elder. ”
"As fate would have it, this is our last meeting, friend of the centaurs." The centaur elder said, "Please be seated. ”
Zhang Xu sat on the low stool that had been prepared in front of the table, waiting for the next prophecy of the centaur elder.
When the soothsayers were about to make predictions, Zhang Xu always listened more and talked less, which was the experience he gained from getting along with Zhao Lao.
"My life is coming to an end, and the stars have given me the last revelation."
"The stars tell us that peace between wizards is coming to an end."
"Fifteen years ago, a never-before-recorded planet suddenly appeared in the starry sky, and this planet appeared and sometimes hid in the sky."
"Four years ago, the planet orbited behind Mars, which can bring war, and it has never appeared again, and since then Mars has shimmered brighter and brighter."
"War, a war more intense than a wizarding war is coming."
"And the centaur tribe will face a choice in this war."
