Chapter 28: Monsters in the Black Lake
"So we're following in the footsteps of the great sages?"
"Wow, my goodness, that's so cool!"
The excited little wizards chattered non-stop, breaking the fear brought by the darkness.
Hermione raised her head proudly, and winked at Chu Yang, showing off herself in a low-key manner.
In order to make her settle down, Chu Yang was about to praise her twice, but he didn't expect an inopportune voice to suddenly sound.
"Look! That little Muggle from a Muggle family is educating real wizards about the history of Hogwarts?! ”
"It's really ridiculous!"
There was a small boat floating to the side, and there were three boys on board, and the boys on the left and right were tall and much stronger than Neville.
Between the two sat a blonde boy, who was quite good-looking, but his eyes were gloomy, and he didn't look good.
The blonde boy said in a low voice, "You mudbloods from lowly Muggle families don't deserve to talk about the four great wizards, especially the great Salazar Slytherin. ”
"It's your business!" Hermione trembled with anger, and the most she hated when she stepped into the wizarding world was that people said her parents were Muggles.
"How can you say such vicious words?"
The timid Neville is uncharacteristically angry and angrily accuses the blonde boy.
"What do you mean by mudbloods?" Hermione paused, instinctively feeling that it was a bad word.
Neville hesitated for a moment and whispered a few words in Hermione's ear, and then Hermione's face changed drastically and her eyes turned red.
Chu Yang squinted his eyes and stared coldly at the blonde boy, there was obviously only one person in the freshman who could say such viciously such things, Draco Malfoy!
The average young wizard may not know anything about Hogwarts' freshmen, but Draco Malfoy is different.
His family is a very famous family in the history of Hogwarts, and his father, Lucius Malfoy, is one of the trustees of Hogwarts.
When Lucius Malfoy saw that there were two new Muggle freshmen on the list, he threw a big tantrum in front of Draco Malfoy.
Everyone in the Malfoy family graduated from Slytherin House at Hogwarts, and the lineage of the house's founder, Salazar Slytherin, is highly prized.
They all believe that only pure-blood wizards are qualified to learn and use magic.
In this regard, Chu Yang felt very funny.
According to their ideas, the first wizard in the world to discover and use magic is not qualified to use magic at all.
Because his parents were Muggles......
Without the first Muggle-born wizards blazing the trail of magic and interacting with each other, where did the wizarding family come from?
This is very different from the chicken-and-egg question.
Muggle-born wizards and pure-blood families must have preceded the former.
Malfoy, who was forcefully rebuffed by Hermione, couldn't hold back his anger and began to curse each other with some vicious words.
"This is the etiquette of pure-blood wizards? Insulting others with unacceptable language? Chu Yang sneered: "I have only seen similar behavior in the gangsters on the streets of London, your tutor is really worrisome." ”
Draco Malfoy's face turned red, and he stood up excitedly and yelled, "I will only teach etiquette to wizards, you lowly ......"
Before Malfoy could finish his sentence, the boat shook violently, and he almost fell off the boat, but fortunately Goyle beside him quickly pulled him.
At this time, the intertwined trees are constantly breaking through the ground from the bottom of the lake.
In the moonlight, the branches of the trees that poured out of the lake were entangled in Malfoy's boat, causing it to slow down and stop on the surface of the lake, and then shake violently.
"Damn it! What the hell is going on? Doesn't that mean the lake is completely safe? Malfoy clung to the side of the boat and shouted hysterically, terrified.
The area where the branches were entwined became more and more, and in the blink of an eye, the three people on the boat lost their footing.
Hagrid, who was at the front, noticed the strangeness behind him, and shouted with round eyes, "Oh my God, what the hell is that?" ”
The dark surface of the lake was hazy in the moonlight.
The branches and vines on the boat looked to Hagrid more like the tentacles of some kind of monster, rocking the boat in an attempt to get the three Malfoys off the boat.
"Damn, what to do? I didn't have a wand! Hagrid was a little panicked, when he went out today, he didn't bring the wand in the shape of a "broken umbrella", after all, it was just to pick up and drop off students, and it was completely unnecessary.
But now that the emergency is happening right around the corner, there is nothing he can do.
Just as Hagrid was still regretting that he didn't have a wand, the three Malfoys on the other side finally couldn't hold on and fell into the water like dumplings.
Goo Dong ~ Goo Dong ~ Goo Dong ~
Malfoy desperately tried to grab the boat, but was caught in the branches of the lake and dragged down by his feet.
Gollum ~ Gollum ~ Gollum ~
Malfoy is like a hairy belly in a hot pot, "seven up and eight down" in the water, and whenever he wants to call for help, the lake water will pour into his mouth.
His two friends, Goyle and Crabbe, were in much better shape than Malfoy, and although they also fell into the lake, they quickly climbed back into the boat.
Strangely, the ship had stopped rocking since Malfoy fell.
They didn't suffer much damage other than being soaking wet.
A thought arose in both Goyle and Crabbe's hearts at the same time - the "monster" in the lake seemed to be headed for Malfoy alone!
Thinking of this, Goyle and Crabbe looked at Chu Yang and Hermione, who had just clashed with Malfoy.
As a result, it just happened to meet Chu Yang's cold gaze.
The two of them shook their heads at the same time, and hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to take a second look.
Afraid that he would be eaten by the "monsters" in the lake, Malfoy immediately cried out: "Help me, come and save me, I don't want to be eaten by monsters, no matter who comes to save me." ”
"Goyle! Crabbe! ”
A desperate Malfoy shouted his companion's name.
Goyle subconsciously leaned towards Malfoy, bending over to the side of the boat, ready to pull him up.
As a result, the boat shook wildly again, and Goyle screamed and fell into the lake again!
Crabbe, who was on the side, was so frightened that he hurriedly moved away from Malfoy and escaped by acting as if he didn't care about himself.
He had been able to determine that the "monster" was targeting Malfoy.
After Goyle climbed aboard the boat for the second time, he began to learn from Crabbe, pretending not to hear Malfoy's cries for help.
Poor Malfoy is almost full of water......
When Hermione first saw Malfoy fall into the water, she felt a sense of comfort in her heart, and all the evil in her heart seemed to be spit out.
But over time, she also began to worry that the other party would be in danger, in the end, she was just an 11-year-old girl, simple and kind.
Hermione asked anxiously, "Why didn't his companion save him?" The two of them were so strong, any one of them could pull him onto the boat. ”
Chu Yang glanced at her in surprise, "He scolded so ugly just now, are you still anxious about him?" It's only been a while, aren't you angry? ”
"Of course I'm angry!" Hermione said of course: "But I don't want to resent a dead man, only if he lives, I can find a chance to take revenge on him!" ”
Chu Yang touched the cold sweat on his head, the old saying is not wrong at all, the more beautiful the girl, the more grudges, and it is easy not to provoke.
