Chapter 25 Forbidden Forest

"You three, you are making a fool of yourself by wandering around the castle so late at night!" Professor McGonagall sat behind the table, and the dim light shone on Professor McGonagall's face. The atmosphere seemed extremely serious!

"I know Professor McGonagall. The Hogwarts inscription stipulates that first-year wizards are prohibited from wandering in the castle after 10 o'clock in the evening." Fan Lin didn't dare to look at Professor McGonagall!

"The thing that disappoints me the most is you, Mr. Fanlin Elle. I really didn't expect that you didn't stop Mr. Harry Potter and Mr. Ron Weasley from acting like crazy. This really disappoints me!" After listening to Professor McGonagall's lesson, the three of them lowered their heads in shame.

"Plop!" Malfoy stood aside and couldn't help laughing when he saw the embarrassment of the three of them. Professor McGonagall glared at Malfoy fiercely, and Malfoy immediately turned away and put away his face. smile!

"Originally, according to the regulations, you three will be expelled from the school, but..." Professor McGonagall pondered for a moment.

"However, since this is your first offense, I will let you three off for the time being. But punishment is unavoidable. I think Hagrid needs some help for tonight's mission. Mr. Filch, take the four of them to Hagrid." Go ahead!" Professor McGonagall made the final decision. Harry and Ron both bowed their heads deeply and turned around to follow Mr. Filch out.

Malfoy, who was smiling at the misfortune of the three people, suddenly felt that there was something wrong with Professor McGonagall's words.

"Wait, you mean the four of us?" Malfoy looked in disbelief. Obviously, the script did not go according to his design. He originally expected to expel these three people from Hogwarts, but instead, It was barely acceptable to punish the three of them, but what the hell was it that got me involved in the end?

"That's right, Mr. Draco Malfoy! You heard that right, I'm talking about you four!" Professor McGonagall glanced sideways at Malfoy.

"But I..."

"I know, Mr. Draco Malfoy, I know you came to me with good intentions to report Mr. Potter's whereabouts, but no matter what the reason, you have violated the school rules of Hogwarts. Isn't it? The school rules stipulate..."

"Wandering around the castle late at night is not allowed!" Harry and the other three interrupted Professor McGonagall's speech in unison!

"Yes, that's right, that's it." Professor McGonagall glanced at the excited three people and sighed helplessly! "So, Mr. Malfoy, you must also accept the punishment together with the three of them!"

"But I..."

"Okay, don't say any more. Hagrid has to complete his task earlier tonight. Mr. Filch, take them to find Hagrid." Professor McGonagall waved her hand and signaled Fei Qi to take them to him quickly. Hagrid, Malfoy wanted to say something else, but Fei Qi grabbed his arm and carried him out!

"Hey, Harry! And you two little guys!" Hagrid is still as burly as ever. Hagrid was fiddling with a long crossbow in his hand. This crossbow looked a bit old, very big and old, but from the arrow point The cold light emanating from it does not seem to make anyone doubt the power of this long crossbow at all! There was a belt on it, which held various unknown gadgets bit by bit, and Hagrid also wore a pair of huge goggles on his head, and he didn't know what to use them for.

"Hey, Hagrid, what are you doing?" Harry looked confused as he looked at Hagrid's equipment!

"Aha! These are all potions or other things that may be used. It's not an easy night tonight!" Hagrid laughed and patted the things on his clothes with his hands!

"What is the mission tonight? Where are you taking us?" Harry looked a little confused. He didn't understand where there was such a weapon in Hogwarts!

"Hagrid, is our destination tonight the Forbidden Forest?" Fan Lin was a little unsure. He didn't expect Professor McGonagall to let Hagrid go to such a dangerous Forbidden Forest to perform a mission. But except for the Forbidden Forest, there is no place where Hagrid needs to arm himself like this.

"Haha, your name is Fan Lin, right? You are a very smart little guy. We are going to the Forbidden Forest tonight!" Hagrid patted his belly with a smile. "But don't worry, as long as you don't mess with things in the Forbidden Forest, at least safety will be fine."

"What did you say, the Forbidden Forest?" Malfoy was held up late by Mr. Fei Qi. "You mean, we are going into the dangerous Forbidden Forest tonight? Professor McGonagall must be crazy." Malfoy was a little confused, "I must ask my father to come and have a good talk with Dumbledore. "

"Okay, shut up!" Hagrid was a little unhappy and shouted Malfoy, his loud voice making everyone's ears uncomfortable!

"Get your things now. We are going in. Try not to use magic to prevent unnecessary trouble! There is an oil lamp over there, let's use that one!" Hagrid pointed to the oil lamp not far away. I shook the wand in my hand and extinguished the light of the wand.

"Okay, we're ready to go. It should be an unforgettable journey." Hagrid grinned, and a row of white teeth suddenly appeared under his thick hair!

Gradually walking into the Forbidden Forest, I realized that the rules of Hogwarts are not something to scare children. The towering ancient trees, the dark tree trunks with some kind of ferocious scars, and the protruding tree roots on the ground, combined with the eternal... The dissipated fog seriously hindered the progress of Haliel and his party. From time to time, there were two howls of unknown beasts and the sound of footsteps walking through the forest, which made the four first-grade children The wizards swallowed hard!

"We're here, this is our destination tonight!" Hagrid raised his hand, shook the oil lamp in his hand, and signaled everyone to stop! Hagrid bent down and dipped his hand into the ground. When Hagrid stood up, there was some silver transparent liquid on his hand!

"Then... what kind of blood is that?" Fan Lin was struck by lightning. He had seen this liquid on Professor Rocky's scarf. Combined with the unforgettable smell of blood and the delicate fragrance, Fan Lin was sure. That must be the blood of some creature!

"Huh?" Hagrid gave Fan Lin a strange look.

"Yes, this is the blood of an animal, and it is very rare and precious. This is the blood of a unicorn!" Hagrid's words were a bit heavy!

"Unicorn?" The four first-grade wizards opened their mouths in surprise!

"Yes, it's a unicorn." Hagrid continued with some regret: "This is the blood stain found last week. The unicorn must have been injured and was being chased by something, so last week I was While patrolling the Forbidden Forest, we discovered a large amount of blood stains.”

"But... I mean, who would go after a unicorn? After all, this kind of creature has no natural enemies. Normal magical creatures will avoid unicorns when they see them!" Fan Lin felt that things were a little bit his way. I discovered a direction I couldn’t understand!

"Yes, of course ordinary creatures will not chase unicorns. The unicorn is an extremely sacred creature. Its tail hair can be used as the raw material for the wand, and the blood of the unicorn can extend the life of the creature! "

"But it will bring endless curses. Creatures that harm unicorns will be cursed by nature, because unicorns are the darlings of nature, and creatures who are close to unicorns will become lucky!" Fan Lin continued. The words of Ge continue!

"It seems that you know a lot. I think we have to hurry up. It seems that there are fresh blood stains on this pool of blood, which proves that the unicorn has just been here and is still being attacked by some creature. Chase, I think we need to speed up the pace!" Hagrid looked worriedly at the Forbidden Forest in the distance, "We are now divided into two teams, Harry, Malfoy, and Fan Lin. You three team up and go southeast. "Go in that direction, Ron and I will continue to move forward. If you encounter a situation, remember to use your wand to report it." Hagrid assigned the personnel and started to search forward.

"Wait a minute, you can let me join a group with them, but you have to let Fang follow me!" Malfoy raised his eyebrows and put forward his conditions to Hagrid!

"Okay, but you have to have the confidence to run faster than Yaya when something happens!" Malfoy couldn't say anything, so Hagrid patted Yaya and motioned Yaya to follow Malfoy and the others, and then took Luo with him. En disappeared into the mist not far away!
