It rained all night.

When Ron said goodnight to Harry, he hesitated to add, "Professor Moody is really old, Harry, don't toss him too much." ”

Under his father's influence, he had a decent sense of Moody.

Harry reluctantly agreed.

By the next day, the rain had finally stopped.

Most of the young wizards at Hogwarts have a pair of dark circles under their eyes, and the news of the Triwizard Tournament has made them unable to sleep well all night, even after a night of precipitation, the topic on their lips is still the Triwizard Tournament.

Fred and George snapped their fingers and counted their scores.

Trying to make a CV that would convince Professor McGonagall that they must be among the first young wizards under the age of seventeen to get permission from the Dean to participate in the Final Three.

Ron was also a little nervous.

Both Harry and Hermione encouraged him to go, and as a Gryffindor fourth-year, the third-ranked top student, he should be bolder.

He turned his head and began to discuss it with his two brothers.

After breakfast, the busy fourth grade officially began.

Their first class was a herbal medicine class.

Professor Sprout kindly prepared a magical plant called "Babo Tuber" for the young wizards who had entered puberty, it was ugly, twisted like a slug, and had a pungent smell, but as Hermione raised her hand to answer the question, it quickly became liked by most of the young wizards.

Its concentrated water can be blended to make an anti-acne agent.

Adolescent wizards have this problem.

Hermione also has this problem, she used the time turner for a whole year last year, and she will continue to do so this year, the pressure of studying, the pressure of life, these are reflected in the face, although there are not many, there are always small pimples that will pop up.

Ron, who had no heart or lungs, was not spared.

Harry alone.

There was no such thing as acne on his face, not even dark circles under his eyes.

Everyone is very envious, even if they are so good in magic, even the skin is so good, it is so sour, the little witches are about to twist with jealousy.

After herbal medicine class.

The young wizards trampled through the mud and walked towards Hagrid's hut on the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

There are two lessons in a row on protecting magical creatures.

Hagrid mysteriously pulls out a strange and disgusting creature.

They were like shellless lobsters, wriggling in the box, covered with gray-white slime, and several limbs were as if they had been forcibly inserted, scattered and uneven, and did not even possess the symmetrical beauty that a creature should have, and they were full of the fishy smell of seafood rancidity, stacked on top of each other, densely packed, and from time to time their tails flicked, exploding a few sparks, and piling them up with a big leap forward.

Hermione, pale, grabbed Harry's arm and took a few steps back.

She's not small, and these creatures aren't much dangerous, they're just disgusted.

"Harry." Ron retched and took a few steps back, "What kind of creature is this?" I don't think I've seen it in a book. ”

"I haven't seen it either." Hermione nodded, and the probe looked at it again, densely layered layer after layer, and the click and click made her immediately pull her head back, "It doesn't seem to be recorded in the book." ”

Hagrid's face flushed, and he raised his right hand in the air: "It's a pleasure to announce to you in the first class the result of my entire summer vacation, a brand new creature. ”

"Is there any young wizard who can tell which creature their parents come from?"

Hermione had an idea, but didn't want to raise her hand.

The other little wizards frowned and uttered a series of conjectures.

What skin shrimp, lobster, maggots.

Hagrid was disappointed and had a close answer, but none of them were correct.

"Harry, do you have any ideas?" Hagrid looked expectantly at the little wizard who could always save his life.

Harry was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "There should be a part of the blood of the Fire Crab. ”

Hagrid nodded excitedly: "Aha, I knew Harry, you must be able to see that you have always been so good, yes, it does have some fire crab blood." ”

"What else?"

The little wizards were dumbfounded.

This shrimp or maggot-like thing has the blood of a fire crab?

"Salamanders? Or the Grey Snake? Harry was silent for a moment, then reported the types of several magical creatures.

Hagrid shook his head, "Salamanders can't raise such a good creature. ”

"I've been trying to figure out how to make it less explosive, but Mr. Newt and I haven't figured out how to do it."

Harry thought for a moment, the names of many magical creatures flashed through his mind, but none of them looked like they could be related to such creatures, and he finally shook his head, "I'm sorry, Professor Hagrid, I can't think of that. ”

Hagrid sighed: "Okay, after all, you are only fourth-year wizards, you can't ask too much, you can see one of them, it's already very good." ”

"Gryffindor plus five points!"

Hagrid paused, grabbed one from the box, still twisting it in his hand: "I named this creature the Fried Snail, and it was a new creature that I bred during the summer vacation with a human-headed sphinx and fifty fire crabs. ”

The little wizards were dumbfounded.

Harry was amazed.

Wait a minute

How was this creature bred?

Not to mention the size difference between the human-headed sphinage and the fire crab, just talk about this number, one and fifty.

Oh, that's terrible.

Many of the young wizards frowned, moving farther away from the chest.

"Although I bred it, it is a new creature after all, and it is full of many unknown and fascinating things." Hagrid indulged in his own world, and took a sip on the little creature, causing Ron to almost choke out his breakfast.

Hagrid continued, having a year of experience, and he is now more of a qualified professor.

"So in the first lesson, we're going to try to understand their recipes."

"Is it vegetarian, or meat-eating, fresh, or scavenging?"

"I've got a lot of ingredients for you, and of course, you can try to collect some at the edge of the Forbidden Forest, but remember that no one is allowed to enter the Forbidden Forest, including Harry, and you can't sneak into the Forbidden Forest without my permission."

The little wizards reluctantly complied.

"Babo Tubers" are almost disgusting like this thing, but they can tolerate it, after all, that kind of thing cures acne.

A Slytherin held up his hand, "Professor, but what's the use of this?" ”

Hagrid was stunned: "What's the use?" ”

"What's the role of this creature, like a fire dragon?" Slytherin thorned at the thorn and sneered, "Or can it be like a unicorn?" ”

Hagrid shrank his head, "That's for the next section!" ”

"Professor, you don't know, do you?" Slytherin was louder, and the mockery in his tone grew heavier.

The little snakes laughed.

Malfoy stood by like an outsider, his face pale, unlike in previous years, he didn't smile, he just looked indifferently.

"It's a new creature." Harry spoke slowly, "To be able to create a new creature, the offspring of two dangerous creatures, the Sphinx and the Fire Crab, is a great achievement in itself. ”

"If Professor Hagrid hadn't taught you and given you a lifetime, you wouldn't have been able to figure it out."

Speaking of this, Harry paused: "Sorry, it's not impossible. ”

"You can give birth to a baby like a whelch? Pure bloods don't always give birth to something weird? ”

Ron poked Harry on the back and lowered his voice, "Harry, my family is also pureblood. ”

"You're pure-blood traitors." Harry replied, "It's not like those noble purebloods. ”

Ron immediately puffed out his chest, proud and proud.

Yes, the Weasleys are known as "pure-blood traitors".

"Potter!" Slytherin's eyes narrowed.

Hermione reminded Hagrid, "Professor Hagrid, someone has provoked you and interfered with the normal order of teaching. ”

Hagrid reacted and straightened his face: "Oh, thank you Hermione, Slytherin deducts five points!" ”

"Thank you, Mr. Potter, for his contribution to maintaining order in the classroom, and Gryffindor adds two points."

Slytherin gritted her teeth and glared at Harry viciously.

Classroom order resumed.

Although everyone was reminded by Harry to realize that the whelk was a great creature - they still hated it, not only because it looked "disgusting", but also because it was a fierce creature for both "parents".

They're stinging and tingy with some toxin—a sign of Hagrid's growth, and he at least knows to prepare an antidote ahead of time.

Although the tail only occasionally bursts out with some sparks, the temperature is unexpectedly high.

There are also some fried tail snails with suction cups on their stomachs, which will stick tightly like leeches when they touch the skin, and then start sucking blood.

For this reason, Hagrid had to execute a batch of fried tail snail babies in distress to save the students from their predicament.

Busy until noon.

All the students returned to the auditorium with a fishy smell, and the other Gryffindor students avoided the fourth-year group and were full of despair about the upcoming Magical Beasts class.

By the afternoon it was slightly better.

The Ancient Runi script class started to get interesting, and the professor began to show them the effects of different words and magic reactions, and they could also start experimenting with the magical ancient runi script.

And after this class, it was Professor Trelawney's divination class.

She began teaching astrological divination.

Although in the eyes of many people, Professor Trelawney has been labeled as "occasionally a genius, but most of them are liars", it does not affect her solid foundation in astrology, and her classes have become lively.

Until Thursday.

The Gryffindor fourth-year wizards have finally taken their first Defence Against the Dark Arts class of the semester.

At noon on Thursday, when they finished their lunch, they rushed to the classroom.

Unlike the relaxed and pleasant environment in Professor Lupin's classroom, the whole classroom was filled with an extremely oppressive atmosphere.

There are two more chapters tonight, before ten o'clock~~
