Chapter 132 Ron and the Monkey
In the Forbidden Forest, the friends sneaked half excitedly and half cautiously. This is much more exciting than a night tour in the castle.
"Hey, Ron, don't fall behind the line, be careful. There are eight-eyed spiders in the Forbidden Forest!"
Ted saw Ron looking sleepy with his head drooping, so he teased him.
"What, what? Eight-eyed spider?!" Ron was really energetic, and rushed to the middle of the team.
Harry and the others are also curious about what an eight-eyed spider is. Only Hermione knew something.
Hermione said: "I have seen eight-eyed spiders in books. It is said to be a huge, ferocious spider monster. It is native to Kalimantan Island and lives in dense jungles. It is carnivorous, And it's poisonous. Eight-eyed spiders have high IQs, and a few of them can even talk!"
"Speak? Like Ansu?" Jerry asked.
Ted reached out and touched Ansu on the shoulder: "No, Ansu is much smarter."
Ansu puffed out her chest, looking proud.
Ted: "In the Forbidden Forest, there is a habitat of eight-eyed spiders, a large hunting ground, even the centaurs don't want to set foot. It is said that there are huge numbers!"
"That's right! Eight-eyed spider venom is very valuable, a small bottle is worth 100 galleons. But it is difficult to collect venom from a living eight-eyed spider, and the venom in the poison gland will dry up shortly after the eight-eyed spider dies , so it’s worth so much.”
Ted looked at Ron, wanting to see whether Jin Gallon was more attractive, or spiders were more intimidating.
Ron's face turned pale with fright! But the expression is still a little eager to try~
…
After two days in a row, Harley and the others lost their interest in the night tour of the Forbidden Forest.
Although the adventure in the Forbidden Forest was indeed exciting, in the two days and nights, they saw more than a dozen kinds of magical animals with their own eyes, killed five or six magical creatures with their own hands, and collected several kinds of herbs.
To be honest, it is really exciting. Much more interesting than class.
The problem is too sleepy!
It is the age of long body and snooze.
Ted can recover quickly through deep sleep and only needs to sleep for an hour or two, but they can't.
After two days, the dark circles under the eyes are as if poisoned by corpse poison.
In broad daylight, he yawns again and again, and he nods in class.
Ted felt that it was almost the same, and it was estimated that they would not be able to survive.
At most two days, they have to give up the night tour in the Forbidden Forest and choose to go back to the dormitory to sleep beautifully.
Only after experiencing the ravages of sleepiness can they know the value of getting enough sleep.
Ted: See if you are still energetic? ! I can't stand the twins!
"Ted, why don't we go north. We haven't been there yet?" Jerry asked.
Ted looked north: "Do you know the professor who teaches the protection of magical animals at the school?"
The courtesan Halle immediately said: "I know, I've heard of it, and I saw it once. An old man, smiling, with only one arm and a wooden prosthetic leg."
"That's right, Professor Sylvanus Kettleburn, he even served in the school earlier than Professor Dumbledore. But he is still the interim professor of the Protection of Magical Beasts."
"Why?" Neville asked strangely.
"Because he has a total of sixty-two inspections! Like Hagrid, he likes those dangerous magical animals the most. It's hard to say whether his missing hand and foot have something to do with this hobby."
When the friends heard this, they immediately thought of the young dragon Noble last year.
That was such a house-breaker, not even Hagrid could stop it.
Ron's hand was bitten, and it was swollen for three days!
If this Professor Kettleburn is the same as Hagrid, then... no, if Hagrid is the same as this Professor Kettleburn, it is difficult to guarantee that Hagrid will still have a few hands and legs when he is old~
"Professor Kettleburn doesn't like living in the castle, he lives in the wooden house in the north, and there are magical animals he raises nearby. So I never go there~"
Ted explains why not over there.
The outskirts of the Forbidden Forest are not dangerous for him. But if you go there, not necessarily.
Professor Kettleburn also cast an expansion spell on the Ash Snake, which directly burned the Hogwarts auditorium, so that there are no entertainment activities in Hogwarts until now.
In the original book, he lived in Hogsmeade village after retirement, and was unable to participate in the final Hogwarts battle due to physical inconvenience.
But this eccentric, self-willed, yet exceedingly respectable wizard climbed into the attic and threw all his Flobberworms through the skylights at passing Death Eaters.
is also a funny old man.
…
This is a kind of herbal medicine that is not commonly used, but he recently had a small study, and it happened to be used.
So mobilize your friends to help him pick together.
The friends were scattered within a dozen steps away, squatting on the ground to mow the grass.
And Ron sighed softly, and looked at the small handful of ordinary grass in his hand. This thing is cold in the hand.
He's not in a good mood recently, and he's still short of money for the wand. Every time he attends class, he can only watch others cast spells while he makes gestures on the sidelines.
I don't know if this cool grass is worth money?
Just at this moment, a small and thin shadow hung down from the branch above his head without a sound, and then reached out and took the wand from his waist.
"Huh? Hey! Give me back my wand!"
Hearing Ron shouting, everyone was startled. Looking over, they found that Ron was fighting for his rebellious wand with a monkey whose tail was curled up on a branch and hung upside down.
Monkey is about forty centimeters tall, with white hair and black tail, and a very long tail. It can swing around trees.
This thing is called Long Tail Thief Monkey!
The origin of this thing is in Southeast Asia, and it is definitely not a native species in the magic world of Great Britain. Like the eight-eyed spider, it should have been brought into the Forbidden Forest by someone.
Ted suspects that Professor Kettleburn raised it.
However, just as Ted was thinking about the monkey's origin, the "battle" had reached a fever pitch.
The monkey got annoyed when he couldn't **** it, and went up to give Ron a small pocket - after all, the monkey is not big!
Although the beating doesn't hurt, how much psychological harm does this little **** do to a twelve-year-old child?
Ron's eyes were red, and he immediately raised his hand and slapped him back.
Then the monkey slapped back again, and Ron slapped him again...
In five seconds, the two sides exchanged three big punks.
My friends are all dumbfounded, what's going on?
It was Ted who reacted quickly, and a freezing spell froze the long-tailed monkey, and Ron snatched back his crippled wand.
At this time Ron was already on top, and he was slapped several times by the monkey, why did he see people?
"I'm going back! This **** forest!" He left a word and walked back.
Ted said to the other friends: "Okay, let's go back too. Don't come tomorrow, let's talk about it after a good rest."
The friends looked at each other in blank dismay, so they had to go back.
Ted grabbed the frozen monkey: How dare he grab something? I think you are toasting and not eating cooking wine.
Just right, Ted is planning to experiment with a new product, isn’t this the experimental material delivered to your door? !
…
Since the incident of Ron fighting the long-tailed monkey, the friends didn't mention that they would not take them with Ted on the night tour of the Forbidden Forest.
To tell the truth, now Ted invited them to go on a night tour, and they didn't go.
The pain of lack of sleep is really too painful~
It's like someone is stirring your brain with a stirrer, making you want to fall over and pass out.
The little friends recovered for four or five days before barely recovering. This is still drinking the vitality tonic.
Ron was silent for several days because of the incident with the monkey calling.
Neville and Jerry forced him to laugh when they asked for a large plate of chicken legs from the kitchen.
In comparison, Malfoy is proud of himself.
Since he was chosen as a Slytherin Quidditch player, he was also a vital Seeker.
His father Lucius generously donated 7 expensive Nimbus 2001 broomsticks to the Slytherin Quidditch team, and sent his son directly to the academy team.
Fully embodies what is called "the rich can really do whatever they want".
It caused Ron to curse behind his back: Quidditch chooses people like this, I'm afraid they don't even want face!
You said that the broom is not good, how many years have you been using the broom for one session after another, is it hot to change it? Change the soup but not the medicine...
With just a few people, you, Malfoy, are all Seekers. Can he be a Seeker? I can't be, I don't have the ability to know!
The more I think about it, the more I hate Lockhart. If it weren't for him, I would definitely have my own flying broom this year, and maybe I would be selected for the academy team!
And speeding cars, and wands, **** wands...
