Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 143 Pegasus and Centaur

Connor was convinced that he could not see thestrals when he started school, he had never witnessed death with his own eyes, and he didn't even know how he traveled back then, nor did he know if he died.

But now he did vaguely see the Thestral in front of him. Why is it vague? Because it is faintly visible, just like the disillusionment spell on a wizard's poor control.

This thestral was as skinny as the book said, without a piece of flesh on its body, with a dragon's head and a horse's body, and a pair of bat-like wings on its back, huh?wing! ?
Connor noticed that there were several holes in the wings of this thestral, and dark blood flowed from the wound. This thestral seemed to be injured?
Then Connor saw the Thestral's dragon head clearly, and the emotion he could see from those pupilless eyes was not hostility, but more like a plea?

"Connor Connor! I heard it again, this time there are a lot of hooves!" Li's panicked voice came over.

"You don't need to say it, we heard it! Quick, come here, come closer to me!" Connor didn't look at the Thestral in front of him any more, and let the four of them surround him. Their current situation seems to be a bit bad, they...are surrounded up.

The sound of "tapping, stomping" horseshoes was getting closer, and they saw figures surrounding them, as if they were observing Connor and the others.

After a while, they came out of the forest. After seeing their appearance clearly, Connor and the others knew that they were surrounded by a group of horsemen.

"A group of centaurs? Why did they surround us? Or is this a special welcome ceremony?" Fred raised his wand, and there was no fear in his voice, but a hint of excitement.

"Be careful and protect yourself. These centaurs don't seem to be easy to mess with." Connor put away the map, raised his wand, and looked serious.

At this time, a horseman stepped forward. He had red messy hair and beard, no clothes on his upper body, only a quiver on his back, and the body of a horse from the waist down. He looked very strong and full of blood. With a sense of power, he looked at a few hooded little ghosts, and said in a statement tone:

"You are students of Hogwarts, you should not be here, the Forbidden Forest is not a place for you children to come."

At this time, another centaur also came forward. His hair was black and he looked rather irritable: "Go back to your school! Immediately! Get out of here!"

Several people clenched their wands nervously. Connor looked at the quiver on their bodies, then at the wounds of the Thestrals beside him, and said, "Are you hunting this Thestral? I don't think Hagrid knows this matter."

The horseman on the opposite side froze, and the black horseman said in a bad tone: "This thestral is an alien, not the property of your school, and you have no right to interfere with our behavior."

"We won't take your one-sided words lightly. How about we invite Hagrid to testify now, isn't that a problem?" Connor raised his wand as if to emit a magic signal.

"You!" The black horseman stepped forward, looking very angry. If Hagrid found out, how could he allow them to hunt thestrals with his big-chested and brainless personality?

"Baine! Venus is shining." The group of red horses said suddenly.

Then the black horse man also raised his head to look at the starry sky, and murmured: "Venus is shining."

Afterwards, these horse men looked up at the stars and muttered to themselves, then turned their horses' heads and left like this. It really came and went faster...

Connor and the others still maintained the posture of holding their wands high, and they didn't react for a while.

"Well... they left like this?" Fred looked puzzled.

"What does Venus. Shine mean?" Roger looked up at the starry sky and said, "Did we teach this in our astronomy class?"

"I think it's pretty amazing that we can find out where Venus is," Lee said.

Connor couldn't figure out what the group of centaurs were thinking, but it saved him a lot of effort. Connor turned his head to look at the Thestral, which seemed a little weak.

"Okay, forget about the centaurs, the situation of this Thestral doesn't look good, I think we need to find Hagrid." Connor said.

"Hey, so, where is the Thestral you mentioned, Connor? We can't see it." George looked around and said.

Connor pointed in the direction of the Thestral, and said, "It's right here, forget it, you just follow me, this Thestral looks very human."

"My God, you guys actually ran to the Forbidden Forest in the middle of the night! Do you know it's dangerous! You guys are so daring!"

Beside Hagrid's hut, Hagrid was tinkering with strange herbs while thinking.

"Hey, Hagrid, you won't report on us, right? We are good friends, and we saved this Thestral after hundreds of rounds of fighting with those centaurs." Fred ran the train with his mouth full, He wanted to point his finger at the Thestrals, but he couldn't see where the Thestrals were, so he had to put his finger down.

"Don't be an example! If you let me know that you sneaked into the Forbidden Forest next time, I will definitely tell Dumbledore!" Hagrid said gruffly:

"And those horse people! How can you treat this lovely pony like this."

"." Connor looked at the skeleton of the Thestral, and couldn't see anything cute about it: "So, Hagrid, isn't this Thestral really yours?"

"Indeed not. This should be a little Thestral horse that ran out from the depths of the dark forest and lost its way. It was still a child, and it was treated like this by those centaurs. But don't worry, I will place it in the Thestral group in the future. , it will love life here"

Hagrid smeared the Thestral's wound with the herbal medicine he was tinkering with, and then took some bandages and said to Connor, "Connor, you can see this kid, right? Come and help me."

"So Hagrid, do you know why I can see it? Doesn't it mean that only those who have seen death can see the Thestrals? Obviously, I couldn't see the Thestrals pulling the carriage when school started." Connor helped while asked.

"I'm not sure about this, maybe you can ask Dumbledore?" Hagrid replied naively.

"Okay." Connor knew he was asking for nothing.

"But those centaurs are really weird lately." Hagrid rummaged through his pockets, as if he was looking for something. "They've been patrolling a lot more recently, and they're always talking. Oh, hell, Valium is used It's over."

"Really? It just started recently? I thought all centaurs were so chatty." George stuck out his tongue and said.

Hagrid ran into his little room and searched for something: "You're right, it's best not to talk to centaurs at night, they'll look up at the stars after a few words, and you'll always get something from them." Unless you give a straightforward answer, the way you speak can make people panic to death."

Hagrid took out a seed, walked to the open space next to him, dug a hole to bury the seed, and then he took out his little pink umbrella and shot at the mud: "Engorgement Charm (wild grow)"

I saw a weed-like grass that grew out of the ground visibly to the naked eye, and was pulled out by Hagrid. After feeding the pulled grass to the Thestrals, Hagrid clapped his hands and said: "Okay, so it can sleep well tonight, and it will probably be better tomorrow."

As a result, Hagrid found some little ghosts looking at him strangely, and then he realized that something was wrong.
"Hagrid, is your wand hidden in your umbrella?" Fred pointed out bluntly.

"...boys, I thought, we're good friends, aren't we? You're not going to tell this... are you?" Hagrid cracked a flattering smile on his bearded face.

Several people looked at each other and smiled, as if they had reached a consensus.
