Chapter 55: Moonlight Fruit

Before you know it, Christmas has arrived.

Because there was no threat from the basilisk, there were not many students who stayed in school, and Harry, who had a godfather and a place to go, left the school early, and it is said that Sirius and Lupin were going to travel to Germany.

As for "Charlie Potter" pretended to be Ning Yuan, he applied to stay in school on the grounds of experiencing British Christmas.

The days without the basilisk were very uneventful, and during this time, he obtained the basilisk skin in Snape's hands at a great price. And Nick also gave Ning Yuan a clear answer, he will be able to get the equipment he needs next year.

In addition, the stone basin obtained from the seaside cave seems to have been restored to its original state, and there are no more anomalies, and even the surveillance of the seaside cave by the Order of the Phoenix does not seem to show any suspicious information, as if nothing has happened.

Dumbledore, who didn't want to provoke the other party for the time being, even though he still had worries in his heart, he gave up this aspect for the time being and concentrated on dealing with Voldemort, which is also Dumbledore's consistent opinion.

On Christmas morning, as soon as he woke up, Ning Yuan saw a high pile of gifts beside his bed.

Even if it wasn't the first time to spend Christmas in the UK, it was the first time that Ning Yuan had received so many gifts, although many of them were given by school classmates, such as books, candy, stationery and other cheap things, but Ning Yuan still carefully collected them. He always felt that whether it was a wizard or an ordinary person, friendship in the eyes of children was purer.

After opening the gifts, Ning Yuan took a shower, changed into pajamas, and slowly came to the common room, which was slightly cold compared to the past.

There weren't many people in the common room, and the most conspicuous ones were the Weasleys. The Weasleys were going to visit Bill in Egypt at Christmas, so the Weasleys applied to stay in school.

The twins got together as always, wondering if they were preparing some prank plan, while Ron and Ginny were playing magic chess, which was what Ron was best at, and even Hermione, a top student, didn't have Ron's talent in this area.

Seeing Ning Yuan coming over, the twins greeted first, "Hey, Charlie, welcome to the Weasley family!" The two of them winked at the gray sweater with the letter C on his body, which was Mrs. Weasley's Christmas present.

Maybe it was because it was covered with several feet of snow in all directions, the lake was covered with hard ice, and the corridor that blew through the hall became cold and biting, and Ning Yuan felt that the sweater on his body was very warm.

"It's warm, and Mrs. Weasley is doing a good job!" Ning Yuan said sincerely.

To be honest, this is also the first time he has worn a hand-knitted sweater, although his college professor's mother is good in all aspects, but he has always been a little handicapped for housework, so since he was a child, his father is responsible for housework including cooking, and naturally he has never enjoyed anything like a sweater or scarf knitted by his mother.

Now that I have received such a gift, I feel like I can't put it into words.

"What are you discussing?" Ning Yuan stepped forward and looked at the parchment in the hands of the two of them, on which something was densely written, which looked very messy.

"Confidential!" Seeing Ning Yuan approaching, the two of them quickly rolled up the parchment, and then winked at Ning Yuan, "I can't sue you now!" ”

Ning Yuan shrugged his shoulders indifferently, the twins always liked to engage in these surprise activities.

"By the way, Percy!" Ning Yuan walked over to the chair next to Ginny and Ron near the fireplace and sat down, and asked Ron, who was directing the chess pieces.

Ron rolled his eyes, "Percy only stayed for Christmas because he felt that as an all-laude student, he had a responsibility to support the teacher's work during this turbulent time, so ...... You know! ”

For the Weasley family, a son who is keen on power, Ning Yuan can't say that he likes or hates it, and he just asks casually.

After watching a game of chess, Ning Yuan walked out of the lounge a little bored and came outside.

At this time, the outside of the castle was covered with several feet of snow, and the lake was already covered with hard ice, and many Gryffindor students were skating on the lake.

In the cold wind, goose-feather-like snowflakes fell on the heavens and the earth, wrapping a qiē package in silver.

The frozen Black Lake in front of you, the dense Forbidden Forest nearby, and the cyan mountains looming in the wind and snow in the distance, together with the majestic and vicissitudes of Hogwarts Castle under the heavy snow behind you, form a beautiful flower scroll.

Born in the South, he rarely saw snow, and he had never seen such a snowy scene except in TV and movie images, and even the year before last, he was too busy studying magic to appreciate such a scene.

Now it's time to taste my heart's desire.

Stepping on the thick snow, Ning Yuan walked towards Hagrid's hut with wisps of cooking smoke at the edge of the forbidden forest not far away.

It's not that he knows Hagrid well, but Hagrid always has a way to get something interesting from the various humanoids in the Forbidden Forest, so the necessary human relationship is still necessary.

Walking through the snow, Ning Yuan came to Hagrid's king-sized wooden house, in front of which was a stone bow and a pair of rubber galoshes.

When Ning Yuan knocked on the door, he heard a nervous struggle and a few low dog barks coming from inside the room. Then came Hagrid's voice, "Back off, tooth, back off." ”

Hagrid opened the door open, revealing his large, bearded face.

"Wait a minute." He said, "Stand back, tooth." ”

Hagrid let him in, desperately grabbing the collar of a large black hound. There is only one room in the chalet. Ham and pheasants hung from the ceiling, boiling water was boiled in a brazier in a brazier, and a large bed with rags in the corner was a bedding made of rags.

"Merry Christmas, Charlie, thank you for the Christmas present, I loved it!" Hagrid had a warm smile on his face as he let go of the enthusiastic teeth in his hands.

"Your gift is also very good!" Ning Yuan was not talking about the homemade toffee received in the capacity of Charlie, but the handicraft from the Centaur tribe that he received in the capacity of Ning Yuan, you must know that there are very few things in circulation on the market.

"Charlie, if you like it!" Hagrid, who didn't know what was going on, smiled and served Ning Yuan a cup of tea.

In the dense water vapor, Ning Yuan looked at all kinds of things that were very precious outside in Hagrid's house, such as the tail hair of a unicorn, many cherished magic plants, and some beautiful feathers from various rare birds...... Most of these things were given to him by animal friends of various generations, such as the Christmas gift that Ning Yuan received not long ago.

And this honest big man never thought of exchanging these precious things for money, knowing that the more precious of these things were enough to make Hagrid live a rich life if they were exchanged for some money.

Although Ning Yuan didn't care about the amount of money (he was poor and only had gold left), many things were not something that money could buy, not to mention the rare things in the Forbidden Forest that few wizards obtained, in this ancient magical forest, even the Headmaster of Hogwarts did not necessarily know everything, maybe there were some places hiding extinct magical creatures, magical plants, or some precious magical ores that had been depleted.

Moreover, the area of the Forbidden Forest is very large, even Hagrid does not dare to go too deep, he is generally only walking around in the territory of the centaurs and the eight-eyed giant spider, if he enters the depths of the forest, there are not a few magical creatures who do not buy his account.

"Hagrid, I'm here to trouble you with something this time!" Ning Yuan thought for a while and said.

Recently, he has become a little more interested in the affairs of Neville's parents, and now he needs to make a soul potion, which is one of the necessary means he intends to use to treat Neville's parents.

Except for some materials that can be purchased on the market, there are two things that can be said to be the rarest things now, and even if they have not appeared on the market for almost five or six years, even if they are afraid that they will be acquired internally as soon as they appear.

First, the Moonshine Fruit, a rare thing that generally grows in the habitat of large wild unicorns, and only has a certain chance of growing under the nourishment of the blood left by a large number of unicorns when they give birth.

Second, the unicorn voluntarily donated blood, so that it will not be cursed by harming the unicorn.

Both of these things have the purest life force, and if there is still a good chance that the uncursed blood voluntarily donated by the unicorn can be obtained, then the moonlight fruit is really hard to find in a hundred years, because this kind of thing is also a good thing for a unicorn. Unicorns that have often eaten moonshine fruit will definitely become the king of the unicorn group.

Because of this, the chances of getting a moonshine fruit that is just ripe are very rare.
