Eventually, the train slowed down, and there was a lot of chaos in all directions. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Everyone was busy, putting together the luggage and pets and getting ready to get off the bus.

They shuffled out of the box with heavy footsteps and joined the flow of people in the aisle. The icy rain, mixed with the night air, blew a tingle on people's faces.

They moved slowly towards the doorway, and as the procession moved slowly, one could even smell the scent of the pine trees on either side of the path leading to the lake.

"First-year students come here, first-year students come here. ”

A completely unfamiliar voice, a crisp female voice, was shouting, "First-year students, please line up here!"

Harry had forgotten to use magic to shield himself from the rain, and he asked curiously, "Where's Hagrid?"

"I arranged for him to contact the giant, but he probably hasn't come back yet. George said slowly.

Before the summer vacation, Hagrid and Madame Maxime went to contact the giants, and they have not returned until now. As for their specific situation, it was more Dumbledore who was taking care of them, and George didn't pay much attention to them.

He raised his hand slightly, and a faint light seemed to open a transparent barrier, and the wind and rain could not move in front of him, and they were all blocked in front of him.

Harry reacted and hurriedly added protection to himself with a magical barrier, a foamy barrier to keep out the cold wind and rain.

At that moment, a lantern staggered towards it. In its light, George saw a meticulous witch, who was Professor Graplan.

The witch had replaced Hagrid the year before, and had taken a class on the protection of magical creatures for a while, which was well received by all the students. And this year, George has decided to replace Hagrid and officially become the teacher of the Conservation of Magical Creatures class.

However, in this format this year, leisure courses such as the Conservation of Magical Creatures class cannot be held several times a semester.

These courses, which cannot improve the strength of students, can only be used to soothe everyone's mood this year, just like extracurricular activities.

They continued to walk along the flow of people when they came to the blackened street outside Hogsmeade Station.

When they walked there, a lot of students were screaming.

There are a hundred carriages on the streets, and every year they bring students from the first year onwards to the castle.

And today, many of the students' faces changed drastically when they saw the usual carriages, and they pointed to the carriages with their fingers and exclaimed.

"What the hell is that?"

"It's horrible, there's no flesh at all, it's all bones, what kind of monster is this. ”

"Why use this monster to pull a cart, in the past, wasn't the carriage able to drive autonomously?"

"What are you talking about? There's nothing there, or is it the same as usual?"

"Isn't it, you can't see such a big monster, they're bigger than horses, and they have wings, don't you even see them?"

"What, don't be kidding, it's going to rain outside, the people in front of you hurry up and get in the car." ”

The students in the back urged the students in front to get on the bus quickly, and some of the students in front of them were like ghosts, their feet were rooted in the ground, and they didn't dare to move.

Suddenly, the whole team stopped and became noisy.

"Quiet!"

George's voice had a calming magic.

"Have you forgotten who you are?" his flat voice carried a hint of sternness, "You are wizards, haven't you even seen magical creatures?"

"These night horses have been pulling carts for previous years, and the reason why you can't see them before is because you don't meet the conditions. Now you can see Yeji because the conditions are met, you don't have to care about what you can see, and you don't have to care about what you can't see. ”

He raised his voice a few times and said sternly, "Now, get in the car and go back to school." ”

These Hogwarts carriages have always been pulled by Yeji.

Nights are special magical creatures that look a bit like horses, but look more like reptiles. They had no flesh at all, their black fur clinging to their skeletons, and every bone was clearly visible.

Their heads resemble the heads of dragons, their pupilless eyes are dead white like fish's eyes, and they have wings like giant bats.

In addition to its terrifying appearance, Yeji also has a very special trait that can only be seen by those who have seen death.

In previous years, most of the students had never seen death, and naturally most of them could not see Yeji. They only thought that these cars would go on their own accord using magic.

And last year, Cedric was killed in front of all the students, and most of the students witnessed the killing of their classmates.

So this year, most of the students were able to see Yeji, and the impact in front of them made them not react.

As for the few people who can't see Yeji, it can only be said that their nerves are too big.

"Yeji, I've read it in books, it's a rare and rare magical creature. Hermione looked at the terrible monster in front of the carriage with a look of surprise, "I didn't expect them to pull the cart here all this time, and we couldn't see it before." ”

With George's explanation, the other students slowly reacted.

The students, who couldn't see Yeji, stared at the front of the carriage, trying to see something in front of it, but they found nothing, so they had to enter the carriage at the urging of others.

And those who could see Yeji, with a hint of disgust and fear, cautiously passed in front of this terrible monster. They quickly climbed into the carriage and stopped looking at the terrible monster.

Seeing that everyone else had gotten into the carriage, and making sure that nothing had been missed, George got into the last carriage.

The carriages lined up and creaked and staggered along the road under the ticking footsteps of the night.

Passing two rows of tall stone pillars leading to the school grounds, Hogwarts Castle loomed closer and closer, and the towers looked even darker against the dark night sky.

Occasionally, a window could be seen, casting a fiery red glow above their heads.

The carriage clattered to a halt beside the stone steps leading to the oak gate.

The students gathered again and hurried up the stone steps into the castle.

The foyer was lit red with torches, echoing the footsteps of the students. They walked through the stone-paved ground towards the two gates on the right that led to the auditorium, where the opening banquet was held.

The auditorium was filled with four long college tables with a starless pitch-black ceiling, and it was raining lightly outside, and magic couldn't reflect the stars on a night like this.
