Hogwarts was silent at night, except for the sound of birds and beasts chirping in the Forbidden Forest, and looking back from the cabin, the light projected from the windows of Hogwarts Castle matched the starlight in the distant sky.

Hagrid, with a bow and arrows on his back and an oil lamp, strode ahead.

Tooth followed closely behind his master, sniffing the smell with his nose on the ground from time to time.

Luo Xiu walked at the end of the line, pushing the heavy wheelbarrow, which rolled over the grass, and there was an overwhelmed "squeak" sound from the pivot, as if a few steps further the poor old fellow was about to fall apart.

Everything was surprisingly peaceful and peaceful, even a little laid-back.

And when they had crossed the field, they entered the forbidden forest.

The trees of the Forbidden Forest are darker in late autumn, and their leaves are pitch black.

The sun had already set, and the moon was rising in the east, but the bright moonlight did not illuminate the dark Forbidden Forest, but made the Forbidden Forest even more gloomy.

"I always feel like something is going to happen tonight, don't you think? Repair? ”

Hagrid looked around vigilantly as he asked Rosho.

"Since you said so, then this patrol is not destined to be peaceful." Luo Xiu replied with a smile.

Tooth seemed to be able to understand their conversation, and after Rosho had finished speaking, it timidly leaned down to Hagrid's side.

Hagrid thoughtfully patted the old fellow's head: "Don't be afraid, you coward, with us protecting you, you will be fine." ”

At this moment, a low roar suddenly sounded from the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and then a flock of wild birds fluttered and flew into the sky.

Tooth took two steps back in fright, and a pair of eyes flashed helplessly.

"What kind of animal is this?" Rosho asked Hagrid.

Hagrid, who knows all about magical beasts, was speechless this time: "I...... I can't tell, as if I've never heard such a roar in the Forbidden Forest before. Not a werewolf, not a ...... other herbivores"

Before the words fell, Luo Xiu suddenly felt that the land of the Forbidden Forest was trembling.

"Earthquake?" Luo Xiu asked.

Hagrid crouched down and listened, shook his head, "No, there are a lot of animals running. ”

Tooth barked in fright, and it took Hagrid a long time to quiet it.

At this time, there was a rumbling sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and a group of magical creatures ran out of the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

They are majestic and heroic, they run with the force of wind and thunder, they are very similar to humans, but they are not human.

These creatures look like humans from the waist up - muscular bodies and fiery red hair, bright eyes suggest they are very intelligent.

But from the waist down they are horses, with limbs, hooves, and tails.

"Oh, these are centaurs, magical creatures from the Forbidden Forest." Hagrid said with a smile, then shouted to a centaur in front of him, "Ronan, what's going on in the Forbidden Forest?" Can you tell me? ”

Ronan the centaur heard Hagrid's greeting, and immediately took a step and ran towards this side, so that Rosho was able to observe this magical animal up close, they were really different.

"So it's you, Hagrid, patrolling again? The Forbidden Forest tonight is dangerous, really. Ronan said in a deep tone.

"Dangerous? What are the dangers? Hagrid asked anxiously, "Please tell me what's going on in the depths of the Forbidden Forest, is there anything strange going on?" ”

Ronan didn't answer directly, but looked up at the sky.

"See? Hagrid, the astrology says it all, the Forbidden Forest is destined to happen tonight, it's dangerous here......"

With that, Ronan took a step and ran off into the distance, leaving only a rumbling cry.

"Oh, it's disgusting!" Hagrid said angrily, "These centaurs know how to pretend to be mysterious, and look up all day long to study the astrologs that no one can understand, as if they can really learn something from them." But when it comes to practical matters, they keep their mouths shut, they keep their mouths shut about everything, and they don't get the slightest bit of information from them. ”

"Then it seems that we will have to find the answer on our own." Luo Xiu said helplessly.

Hagrid nodded: "That's right, since these centaurs don't tell us, let's find it ourselves." ”

As he spoke, Hagrid walked deep into the forest with an oil lamp.

"Let's go, don't be afraid."

Tooth was reluctant to enter the depths of the Forbidden Forest, but he followed Hagrid onwards.

Luo Xiu pushed his wheelbarrow again, and the old man who sold vegetables followed Hagrid - if it weren't for the super soldier serum, he might have died of exhaustion halfway through.

As we walked on, there were fewer magical animals in the Forbidden Forest, perhaps because of the low roar just now, which frightened these animals into hiding in the corner.

Hagrid was always worried that a new unicorn would be killed, so he prayed in a low voice as he walked, "No unicorns, no unicorns." ”

After walking for about a few hundred meters, the teeth became more restless.

"Yaya, what's going on?" Luo Xiu couldn't help but ask, because the big black dog's body was constantly trembling.

"Maybe it sensed the presence of some creature, so it was very scared." Hagrid explained.

"So what did he feel?" Luo Xiu asked.

Hagrid shook his head, "I don't know, but I think we'll find the answer soon." ”

Hagrid was right, for as he had said this, the previous low roar was heard again.

But this time, the low roar sounded very close to them, and the terrifying cry shook Luo Xiu's eardrums.

"The monster is nearby! No matter what monster it is, it's nearby! Luo Xiu reminded loudly.

Hagrid raised his bow and arrows and said in a deep voice, "Xiu, we must be ready to retreat." ”

Hagrid, who often works with magical beasts, understands the reason for retreating, and he also understands that there are many animals in this Forbidden Forest that are incredibly destructive.

And at this moment, Yaya suddenly barked wildly.

It jumped up and down beside Hagrid, its eyes frightened and panicked, always in the direction of the dense forest on the side, where the monster should be.

Indeed, a few seconds later, there was a sound of heavy footsteps in the dense forest next to it, and then a large figure emerged from the dense forest.

It was a behemoth, 12 feet (about 3.7 meters) tall, and it resembled a mixture of elves and humans, with ears as large as a fan and a mouth full of fangs.

Its skin was gray, as if it had been smeared with cement, its chapped skin was dry and hard, and its nails were dirty and sharp!

"Damn, it's a troll!" Hagrid said in a deep voice, "But it shouldn't be in the Forbidden Forest, there have never been trolls in the Forbidden Forest!" ”

Luo Xiu suddenly realized: "Someone should have deliberately brought it here." ”

And at this moment, a cold voice came from under a tree not far away.

"You guessed it, someone brought it." The cold voice said, "And the purpose of bringing it here is to send you two to hell!" ”
