Chapter 581: Punishment in the Dungeon

The history of the Hogwarts Castle dungeons can be traced back to the time when the castle was built.

Since Dumbledore became Headmaster, the castle dungeons have been largely abandoned. Only Filch would arrange for the house-elves to come and clean up once in a while, and his greatest wish was to keep disobedient students here until he retired.

Today, Filch's wish has finally come true. Zhang Xu was halfway down the stairs when he could hear Filch's loud laughter.

"Well, Filch, you're smiling so happily, I thought Madame Pince had agreed to your proposal."

Zhang Xu's words made Filch's laughter stop abruptly, and then the thing was actually shy......

"She's already agreed." Filch said with some writ.

Zhang Xu congratulated him, and then found an excuse to make the character completely collapse at the first time, and Filch, who left quickly.

Zhang Xu then handed a piece of parchment to Moody, who was sitting next to him, and Moody carefully read the words written by Professor McGonagall on the parchment several times with his two eyes, and then said, "I'm waiting outside the gate." Then he got up and left.

When Moody and Filch left the dungeon, Zhang Xu pulled the chair where Moody was sitting just now, threw a cooling spell on the chair surface, and sat down.

There is only one walkway leading to the bottom of the dungeon, and cells are lined up on either side of the walkway.

Each cell was not large, only about two meters long and wide, and if Yao ⭕ was inside, he could only lie down diagonally.

However, the facilities in the cell had improved significantly, and Professor McGonagall, despite his anger, still provided Harry and Ginny with a bed in the cell, as well as a set of desks, chairs, stationery and candles for them to copy the school rules.

In the corridor of the dungeon, only the first two rows of rooms have lit candles in the candlesticks on the doors, and the faint candlelight does not illuminate the end of the corridor.

Harry and Ron were in the two cells on the left, and Ginny and Hermione were on the opposite side of them.

When Moody left, Harry put down the quill in his hand and was about to say something to Zhang Xu. Who knew that Zhang Xu waved his hand at him and said, "You are busy with yours, don't care about me." ”

Harry shook his sore hand, then picked up his quill and continued to fight against the school rules.

Professor McGonagall ordered them to copy the school rules every day during their confinement and eat when they were done. So in the silent dungeon, in addition to the rustle of the quills rubbing against the parchment, there was also the gurgling sound coming from the stomach from time to time.

"Dobby!"

After Zhang Xu shouted into the air, Dobby, who was wearing a vest, appeared in front of him.

"Mr. Zhang, what can Dobby do for you?"

Zhang Xu asked, "If Harry wants you to take him out......

"No way!" Dobby suddenly shouted, "McGonagall and Dobby said that Mr. Potter was going to sneak away to find the Dark Lord to die, and Dobby would not allow such a thing to happen!" ”

In the dungeon surrounded by stones, Dobby's voice was louder than ever.

Zhang Xu glanced at Harry's cell and found that he had stopped with a dead face, as if he had thought about this possibility.

Then Zhang Xu whispered a few words to Dobby, and Dobby left. A few minutes later, Dobby returned with a couple of house-elves with a whole bunch of things.

A barbecue grill with a burning charcoal fire, a barbecue skewer, and a plate of lamb and corresponding seasonings, plus a round-faced fat chicken in a cage.

The air in the dungeon is very fresh, which means that the ventilation here is in place, so Zhang is not afraid of barbecuing here to usher in the finale ahead of schedule. And he also took precautions, following the example of the old miners who brought birds to the bottom of the mine to detect toxic and harmful gases, and used a round-faced fat chicken as a detector on the side.

Zhang Xu was very angry today, but he couldn't use a rough way to get angry. But it didn't bother him, and after learning that the four of them hadn't eaten until now, he had a lot of ways to torture the four guys.

Fire fire wood fire fire wood

On the charcoal fire, strings of roast fat sheep were bubbling with oil, and a handful of cumin powder was sprinkled on it, and the gray wolf would be silent when it smelled it, and the red wolf would cry when it smelled it, and the smell of tears suddenly filled every corner of the dungeon.

Zhang Xu ignored the grunting of hunger in the dungeon, and he muttered to himself as he turned the lamb skewers upside down.

"Young people nowadays, their wings are really stiff, and they can fly by themselves."

"Oh, you are fearless lions, not us. It should be said that your claws are stiff and you dare to hunt yourself. ”

"You haven't seen "Animal World", in the African savannah, even the wildebeest, which is used as food for lions, sometimes kicks and breaks the jawbone of a lion."

"Bribe Peeves to open the windows and doorways of the entire castle and catch a large number of students in the castle. Then he ate Fred and George's skipping candy and pretended to have a bad cold and lived in the school infirmary. Then use me to make sure that the secret passage is successful, so as to decide which secret passage to go out. ”

“…… Hiss, a little hot. ”

"If Professor McGonagall hadn't seen the clue early on, Peeves wouldn't have been hiding after a prank, and since the three of you were the only ones in the student group who were seriously ill, she wouldn't have let Nick put his head in the corner of the school infirmary to keep an eye on you."

"Whew...... Call...... It's cold......"

"Sure enough, you're plotting something."

"Well, today's lamb is so tender......"

"Actually, she'll know as soon as you enter the secret passage, and then she'll be waiting for you to come out at the pig's head bar."

"The best lamb skewers are always the next ......"

"If she hadn't been prepared, maybe she would have let you run out."

"Do you know how much trouble you've caused to you?"

"Not to mention the textbooks and potions consumed by the school infirmary that were frozen to death, you can't run away with this money."

"Do you know how much damage it will do to the whole of Britain, and to the whole world, if you make a mistake?"

"Although my view is that history is not determined by a few, I do not deny that the actions of a few people will bring light to history in advance, and it will also make history sink into a longer darkness."

"Do you think you're the only ones working to free Mrs. Weasley?"

"Do you know how much the Minister of Magic sacrificed for this?"

"And, not only the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic and the British government, but also your Aunt Adams, the bald old man, and one of Charlie's leaders, all working on this in places you can't see."

"Hehe, I really thought that if I made a little achievement, I was already invincible in the world. With no source of information, no logistics, what are you going to do to Mrs. Weasley? ”

"Just Hermione, that bottle of polyjuice potion you have?"

"You think that by being captured by the Death Eaters after taking Harry's form, you can be sure that you will be locked up with Mrs. Weasley, and then give you a chance to signal outside?"

"Maybe the Death Eaters will use you as bait to fish."

……

Zhang Xu was eating fragrant mutton skewers while launching a mental bombardment on the four people in the dungeon.

And Harry and the four of them had already been scolded by Professor McGonagall, Lupin, Blake, and Moody, and they couldn't refute Zhang Xu's words, so they could only listen quietly.

However, what Zhang Xu went so far was that he attacked them mentally and physically.

People can't help but breathe, but as soon as they breathe, the aroma of roast lamb penetrates their nostrils, making them hungry more and more.

The rebellious stomach and Zhang Xu's mental attack slowed down the speed at which they copied the school rules.

After Zhang Xu tossed like this, the time for several of them to eat had to be greatly delayed.

At this time, there was another sobbing of a young girl in the cell.

Zhang tossed around in the dungeon for a long time, and it wasn't until there were ten minutes left before today's Muggle studies class that he had eaten all the lamb kebabs, told the house-elves to clean up their things, and then clapped his hands and left.

When he left the dungeon, Zhang Xu said to Moody, who was standing outside the dungeon and watching the whole process with magic eyes: "You better go down and have a look, otherwise I'm afraid they will eat the parchment as dinner." ”
