Chapter 70: The Main Story Returns?
"Dragon eggs?!" Hallie blurted out.
Hagrid was stunned for a moment, then smiled very happily, "Harley, you know?!" ”
Hallie nodded: "It's really a dragon egg!" I've only seen similar patterns in books before. ”
Ted is a little envious of Harry, the Potter + Black family's book collection, that's a huge treasure trove.
Consider that the raider quartet made a map of the living point and completed the Animagus when they were students, which is inseparable from the strong heritage of the two families.
Now Hallie is at her fingertips~
Hagrid looked like he had met his bosom friend, happy as a child of three or four hundred pounds, smiling.
"Yes, dragon eggs! If it's fake! This is a Norwegian spine egg, very precious~" His voice was filled with joy and pride.
Probably by nature, he has a special fondness, or obsession, for those huge, hideous beasts!
"It's not easy to incubate dragon eggs by hand, I have to flip them every three hours, and I have prepared a lot of books about it!" He gestured to a stack of books on the side of the table.
This is a book about dragon breeding that Hagrid borrowed from the library, but he doesn't know how reliable it is.
"Fire Dragon, from birth to prop"
"Raising Fire Dragons for Recreation and Profit"
From Dragon Egg to Burned
Guide to Keeping Fire Dragons
Well, it doesn't look very reliable.
Anyway, Ted didn't think it was a serious way to feed the dragon whiskey with chicken blood.
Speaking of which, I still have a dragon egg!
Moreover, it is the Red Dragon Egg produced by Azeroth, which is much more advanced than the Fire Dragon.
It's just that how to hatch is a problem, and it is impossible to say where it came from......
Everyone looked at the dragon eggs placed in the charcoal fire of the stove, which was a little incredible.
Ron was a little stunned and asked, "Hagrid, it's illegal to raise dragons, right?!" ”
With this sentence, Hagrid's face fell: "Uh~ No, that, we are not the same......"
Hermione asked another question, "Does Dumbledore know?" ”
"Ah......h
Ted didn't look like a problem, he couldn't have Hagrid be kind enough to ask himself and others to share secrets and joys, and he deserved to be dealt a blow.
He waved his hand, "Those things will be talked about later, at least until this dragon grows into the house and can't be raised, there is no need to think about it." ”
He looked at Hagrid, who was visibly relieved.
That's right, it's like this~
Hagrid is naïve and optimistic in this regard. Tomorrow's worries will come tomorrow's worries, today I will hatch the eggs first~
Ted pulled the conversation away, and everyone stopped thinking about the illegal matter of raising dragons, and began to admire the dragon eggs.
After all, they are all little wizards, and they don't care about any laws or anything like that. Instead, it's a live dragon egg in front of you, which is really fun!
This is a dragon egg written in a book, who has seen it real before. It's something that money can't buy on the market.
"Eh, by the way, Hagrid, where did you get this dragon egg?" Harley asked suddenly.
Not only is it illegal to raise dragons, but it is also illegal to buy and sell dragon eggs.
In particular, the Norwegian Spinback Dragon Egg, which is likely to have been smuggled by the wizarding community of other countries.
"Hmm~" Hagrid scratched his head a little embarrassed, "I won it by playing cards~"
He grinned, "That guy still wants to win me?" Haha, naïve! Hmph~"
"Won by playing cards?" Everyone didn't expect that this origin would be so legendary?
Hagrid recounted with great interest how he met the smuggler at the pig's head bar in Hogsmeade Village, and how the other party was distressed that the dragon egg could not get out, and finally played cards and drank with him, discussed the topic of magical beasts, and finally lost the dragon egg to himself......
"Haha, this guy is worried that I won't be able to handle it. I told him that the three-headed Louwe was obedient in my hands, and that I only needed to put on some music for it, and it went to sleep! ”
Hermione keenly spotted the key, "Three heads of Louwe? ”
"It's the three-headed dog!" Harley immediately thought of making a deep impression on herself—the three-headed dog who sprayed her saliva.
"The three-headed dog is yours?" Ron asked.
He finally understood why Hagrid would take the risk of raising a dragon, after all, there was already a three-headed dog the size of a room, and a dragon was nothing, right?
Jerry swallowed with a grunt, the first time he saw the three-headed dog that had flowed all over the ground, it really startled him. I'm worried that this dog is nosy~
The three-headed dog is too fierce, its head is the size of a normal round table, and it can eat half a pork rib in one bite.
Although many of the young wizards had opened the door on the third floor, none of them dared to try to open the secret door guarded by the three-headed dog.
The whining of the three heads alone was louder than a tractor.
Not to mention the little wizards, aren't even Professor Quirrell and the crippled Voldemort stumped?
So Hallie and the others were mischievous, and after thinking about it for a week or two, they really couldn't do it, so they all gave up.
If Hagrid hadn't mentioned it today, he would have forgotten about the dog.
At this time, Hagrid was obviously panicked, "No, I didn't raise Lowe either. I didn't have ......"
As a result, seeing that everyone was staring at him, he sighed again and gave up on himself, "Okay, it's me!" I bought it from a Greek smuggler, and it was less than a month old and not much bigger than my hand. ”
"The smuggler apparently didn't know how to take care of it, and it almost died. I can't just watch it die?! ”
As he spoke, Hagrid glanced at Hermione, as if to prove where he came from, and added, "Dumbledore knows about Louwe." It was Dumbledore's idea to help with the gatekeeper...... Oh! He jerked his mouth over, feeling like he was missing something.
Harley didn't care what Hagrid was trying to hide, but was extremely excited—most of the year's doubts were raised.
She hurriedly urged: "What is Dumbledore hiding, and he needs a three-headed dog to guard it?" ”
Hagrid leaned back, as if there was some dangerous beast in front of him: "No! No! I don't know, I didn't say anything......"
"Speak up, Hagrid! You know! ”
"I don't know!"
"Say it!"
"I can't say!"
"Look, you still know!"
"Oh my gosh, don't push me. I can't, I promised not to say it. Hagrid was clearly trapped—from not admitting it to not being able to say it, which was equivalent to admitting it.
Ted helped beside him: "But you have already told the weakness of the three-headed Luwei. ”
"I didn't!" Hagrid was still holding on.
"Didn't you tell the guy who lost your dragon egg?"
"Ah......h
Hermione continued: "That's right, play music, right?" ”
"No, don't......" Hagrid's voice was full of pity, and Neville couldn't bear to look at it, so he turned his face to the side.
Harley continued to insert the knife: "Even if you don't say it, we can put on music to make it fall asleep, and then open the door and see it ourselves." ”
"Don't! Don't! You can't! That was Dumbledore's secret with Nicol Lemay...... Oh! Hagrid covered his mouth again, this time really not speaking.
Ted and Hallie tease him, he covered his mouth and didn't say a word.
This trick is useful, after all, if you don't speak, you won't leak your mouth.
But what's the use of that, after all, the key information has already been revealed.
"Nicol Lemay? I have a bit of an impression of this name, where have I seen it? Hermione thought with a frown.
It's just that Nicolame was born hundreds of years ago after all, and there are few references in books in the last hundred years, so she can't think of it for a while. It's not like Ted has a memory palace that can be "retrieved".
Ron was smart and looked at Ted: "Ted must know!" ”
Copying homework has copied out the experience.
Ted shrugged, "Nicol Lemay, one of the greatest alchemists, has made the only philosopher's stone so far, also known as the Philosopher's Stone, one of the materials used to make the elixir of life, which can convert base metals into gold. ”
"He and Dumbledore worked on twelve new uses for dragon blood, as documented on Dumbledore's Chocolate Frog card."
"Ahh Hermione suddenly realized, and then slapped her thigh hard, "Why didn't I think about it." ”
Ted touched his thigh, "Pat yourself next time!" ”
Ron swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked with some difficulty, "Can you turn stones into gold?" Oh, my God! Dumbledore hid this thing under the three-headed dog?! ”
He's all over the table right now, and the CPU is overloaded.
Everyone was still discussing the Philosopher's Stone when they left, and they were very greedy.
Hagrid, on the other hand, was paralyzed, looking bored.
After all, Dumbledore's secret was revealed to the Six by himself, and he lived up to Dumbledore's expectations.
Hagrid: Let's go, you guys. I am tired......
I have to say that Dumbledore chose Hagrid to keep it a secret, and he chose the right person.
It's a tight-lipped mouth!
Professor Quirrell + Voldemort, as well as Neville and Hallie, don't you know this one after another?
Ginger is still old and spicy~
Speaking of sending dragon eggs, it's a really good idea, I don't know who came out with Quirrell or Voldemort. Kill two birds with one stone!
One is to get the weakness of the three-headed dog out of Hagrid's mouth, and you can break through the most difficult first level.
The second is that Hagrid, as a hunting ground guard, is so busy incubating eggs and raising dragons that he has no intention of patrolling the Forbidden Forest so that Quirrell can attack the unicorns.
Ted strengthened his belief: I will not set foot in the Forbidden Forest for a whole year!
If this hits Voldemort, it's going to die!
As a result, the system contradicts:
"Ding~ Trigger Task:
