"This bucket of Acromantula venom is my reward for asking you to help me.……"With that said, Shane opened the oak barrel containing the venom.

A faint fishy smell immediately floated in the air.

Snape shrugged his nose. As soon as he smelled it, he knew that the oak barrel in front of him contained genuine Acromantula venom, and it was still fresh.

To be honest, since he started to learn potions, the total amount of Acromantula venom he has seen and used may not be as much as the oak barrel in front of him.

After a moment of silence, Snape suddenly waved his robe, then turned around and walked into the office with a crystal bottle that was faintly emitting blue light.

He came to the bookshelf next to his desk, pulled out a few specific books on it, and then pointed the wand at the empty space on the bookshelf and said some incantation.

Suddenly there was a snap, and a hidden mechanism in the bookshelf was opened.

Snape took out a bottle of silver potion from it, then turned back, threw the potion directly to Shane and said coldly:

"I will truthfully report the matter of the Winged Demon to Principal Dumbledore"

"Now, get out of my office!"

After saying that, he turned around and returned to his desk...

Walking out of Snape's office, Shane looked at the silver potion in his hand, and the joy on his face could not be concealed at all.

He really didn't I thought that sending Christmas gifts in person would bring unexpected rewards.

The bottle of potion in front of me is one of the ceilings of potions: the elixir of good fortune. It is a kind of potion that can make people lucky within twelve hours. To be honest, the value of the elixir is far greater than the gift given by Xia En, and it can even be said to be a costless transaction for him. You must know how many are available in the Acromantula Forbidden Forest. , if you don’t have enough venom, just go get some more.

And Helena is Shane’s own pet, so there is no need to worry about the supply of venom.

But then again, are all Slytherins like this, so arrogant? ?!

Shane recalled Snape's somewhat embarrassing and unexpected request when he received the gift just now. He must have not received a Christmas gift for many years.

After giving Snape the gift, Shane was nervous again. Then we came to Hagrid's hut by the Forbidden Forest.

He also prepared a Christmas gift for Hagrid, and stopped by to inquire about Helena and the secret of Aragog's ability to talk.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Hagrid, are you there?"

Shane knocked on the door of Hagrid's hut and shouted inside

"Who? Is it Harry?"

Hagrid's voice came from behind the door, and then there was a burst of heavy footsteps.

The door creaked open, and a slightly smoky Hagrid poked his head out.

"Merry Christmas, Hagrid!"Xia En said with a smile.

"oh! Shane, it’s you! Come in quickly!"

When Hagrid saw that the visitor was Xia En, his face was immediately filled with surprise, and he quickly invited Xia En into the house.

"Thanks!"Xia En thanked him, and then stepped into the house.

He looked around and found a lot of charcoal suddenly appeared in the corner of the house.

Xia En raised his eyebrows, suddenly remembered something, and then found that on the table not far away, there There was a round thing wrapped in a linen bag.

Hagrid, who had just closed the door, turned around and saw that Xia En had been staring at the treasure he had just won, and his face immediately became a little nervous. , hurriedly walked over and stood in front of Xia En and said awkwardly:

"Um~~Xia En, Merry Christmas!"

"Have fun, Hagrid!"Xia En responded with a smile, then tilted his body and looked behind Hagrid,"You don't have to be so nervous, I know it's a fire dragon egg, I saw it!"

"oh! How did you know?"Hagrid was a little at a loss for a moment. He picked up the dragon egg on the table and said in a pleading tone,"Xia En, don't tell others, I just……"

"Don't worry, I'm not like you!"Xia En replied thoughtfully, and then took out the gift he had prepared and handed it over,"Try your gift to see if it fits."

"Oh my God!"

Hagrid exclaimed, hurriedly put down the dragon egg in his hand, wiped his soot-stained hands, and then carefully took the brand new wool coat that Shane handed over.

"I saw that the coat you were wearing had not been changed all day long, and there were many patches on it, so I thought I would give you a new one this Christmas."

"Thank you, thank you so much!"

Hagrid wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with emotion, and then began to take off his old moleskin coat and put on the new clothes that Shane gave him.

After a while, he happily faced Shane spread his arms and asked,"Is it appropriate?"

"Very good, very suitable!"

Xia En nodded and praised, and then began to take advantage of Hagrid's physical and mental joy to tell him another purpose of coming this time.……

"Hagrid, I saw Aragog yesterday night!"Xia En said directly

"Aragog is...Aragog?!!!"

Hagrid didn't react at first, but after two seconds, his eyes widened.

He shook his head at Shane in disbelief and said,"No...impossible, it promised. I won't leave the Forbidden Forest, it... How did you see it?"

"Yesterday evening I went to the depths of the Forbidden Forest and met a group of Acromantulas. Following them, I saw it!"Xia En replied truthfully.

"Did you go to the Forbidden Forest?! And went to the Acromantula's lair?!"

The shock in Hagrid's heart was indescribable. He glanced at Shane in stunned silence.

You must know the Acromantula's lair. Apart from himself and Dumbledore, basically no one can come out alive from that place.

"It's okay, Aragog and his children were very polite to me yesterday night!"Xia En waved his hands with a relaxed expression and said,"Actually, I'm just a little curious, how did you make Aragog speak like a human?"

"Oh...that's what you asked!"Hagrid finally recovered from the shock. He touched his big belly, and then a trace of memories began to appear in his eyes."Actually, I don't know why Aragog can speak. What can I do? This will start when I pick up Aragog.……"

It turns out that just 48 years ago, Hagrid was still a third-year student at Hogwarts.

One day, he accidentally discovered an Acromantula egg near the Forbidden Forest.

So he, who had a natural affinity for magical animals, secretly took the egg back to Hogwarts for incubation.

"The Acromantula species needs to go through 10 instars from hatching to adulthood, and each instar is about six to eight months."

"And in these six to eight months, the food the Acromantulas eat and the living environment they live in will have a huge impact on them."

"I remember that Aragog was very cute when he first hatched, but in order to avoid drawing attention to others, I usually kept him in a wooden box and gave him food such as cotton aphids and stable flies.."

Hagrid gradually told some of the things that happened that year.

"But what does this have to do with being able to talk to Aragog?"Xia En said doubtfully.

"Maybe it matters, maybe it doesn't. Hagrid shook his head with regret,"To be honest, I was still a student at the time. Although I was very interested in magical animals, I didn't do much research in this area.""

"It wasn't until I became the gamekeeper at Hogwarts and had more contact with the magical animals in the Forbidden Forest (Wang Zhaohao), plus some knowledge from books, that I slowly began to realize……"(To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Aragog, it may be a very special existence among the Acromantula group."

"To tell you the truth, I have tried to raise an Acromantula in the same way as Aragog before, but in the end I failed."

"In other words, you are completely wrong!"Xia En sighed with a little regret.

These words of Hagrid shattered his idea of ​​​​training Helena to speak, because even if he found the password that Aragog could speak, it would only apply to the Acromantula race. close

"Um? Shane, what's wrong with you? Hagrid asked curiously when he saw Xia En suddenly looking downcast.[]

"I'm fine~~"Shane raised his head and regained his composure, and then started talking about another thing,"By the way, Hagrid, I have another question. Can you help me find out what's going on with my pet?

" As soon as it fell, Helena flew out from Xia En's chest, flew around the room, and landed on Xia En's head.
