Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 2801 Red Hunger ([-])

Rabbits usually dig several holes for themselves, and will not eat the grass beside the nest to avoid their nest being discovered.

Unlike social animals, they have companions to watch out for while sleeping or resting, so they have to be careful on their own.

Foxes always give people a sense of cunning, that's because they prey on rabbits. If they were not cunning, they would have starved to death for lack of food.

Before man was able to build shelters, caves under cliffs were man's chief refuge, so convenient that some caves are still in use even in civilized societies.

It is a hideout, a warehouse, and sometimes a workshop.Modern man found processed stone tools in these caves, as well as murals on the rock walls.Most of them depict hunting scenes, in which there are not only prey, but also weapons in people's hands.

At that time, compared with the pleasure and stimulation brought by hunting, obtaining the nutrition needed for survival was the primary purpose of human beings at that time.Due to the limitation of hunting ability, not every hunt can be successful. Compared with gathering, it can obtain a more stable source of food.

"I still don't understand why Patsy would have a mouse as a pet."

During the herbal medicine class, Charlie talked to Pippa McMillan while putting the newly picked sycamore in the cage.

The fruit of this plant does not droop like normal fruit, but is upside down as if floating, which looks a bit like a blimp plum.

"I think raising mice is more normal than raising hairy crabs." Pippa said, putting a Yu Xinmei who was trying to slip away into the cage. "At least they are sold in pet stores."

"Just because it's sold in the store doesn't mean it's normal," Charlie said.

"I heard Snape had pets, what do you think he would have?" Pippa said to Charlie.

"Your boxes are almost full," said Pomona to Charlie and Pippa. "Put them in the pantry."

Charlie and Pippa hugged the cage containing Xinmei, talking while walking.

Pomona sighed secretly.

From the time Barnaby refused to kill Pitts, the house-elf who interceded for Barnaby, with the Killing Curse, he had no connection with his parents, even though he was only 6 years old at the time.

Living in a place like Azkaban would be crazy if not dead, but Barnaby didn't care much about his parents.

If it weren't for the school's requirement to have pets, he wouldn't even bother to keep hairy crabs.He might have liked Kettleburn's swallow-tailed dogs a little, after all, they were active and turned their bellies over when the wizard touched them.

But it's also possible that "sniff liz" asked them to.

Liz's real name is Liz Tuttle, she is a top student in the Care of Fantastic Beasts class, she has a snow sculpture named Artemis as a pet, she likes those animals, like a second Newt Scamander .Due to Kettleburn's inconvenient legs, she sometimes became his teaching assistant, and she demanded that all magical animals be treated "equally".

When everyone was young, Liz sniffed because of her constant runny nose, which led to her being nicknamed "sniff".Now she doesn't sniff her nose anymore, and she looks pretty, but the students in the same grade still call her that.

Normally, a beautiful girl should be invited by many people, but no one invited Liz to the Celestial Ball.

Sometimes it can be annoying to be so uninterested.

After the get out of class of the third graders was over, and there was no class for the day, Pomona began to pack the freshly picked Yuxinmei.

Hagrid told Pomona such a story while sitting by the campfire.One day he was in the forbidden forest and saw a lone wolf. It had just snowed heavily and there was no sign of prey for the wolf to follow.But there is a crow in the tree, and it has become an ally with the wolf. Small animals like rabbits are not wary of the crow, after all, the crow is not like an eagle.When it let down its vigilance, the lone wolf who followed the crow attacked the rabbit. The wolf got the food, and the crow also got a share.

One of the earliest animals domesticated by humans was dogs. While helping humans hunt, wolves can also share a piece of meat and bones, so wolves become dogs.

But not all wolves will eat food thrown to them by people. The effect of Yuxinmei can make animals that eat it have a stronger ability to "accept" the impossible, and it is the favorite of magical zoologists all over the world.

She heard a cry of frogs.

The wild frogs were about to go into hibernation at this time. She followed the sound for a while, and found a glowing frog in a cage containing Xinmei. It was actually wearing a bow tie and looked like a singer. .

She thought it was very interesting, so she locked it up in a bubble cage and waited for someone to come to it in the future.

When the sun went down and Yu Xinmei was almost packed, another person came to the greenhouse.

"All done?" asked Duncan House.

"All right," Pomona said.

Duncan glanced at Yu Xinmei who was wrapped as a Christmas present.

"This year's harvest is good."

"Probably because I switched the fertilizer to dragon dung," Pomona said.

"What's wrong with this frog?" Duncan looked at the glowing frog floating in the bubble.

"Lost pet," Pomona said.

Duncan didn't say anything else, and floated all the packed Yu Xinmei, like a person holding a dragon ball in a dragon dance, and led the dragon out of the greenhouse.

The Thestral carriage was parked outside, so many Yu Xinmei couldn't be delivered to the owls, they were not as big as these parcels.

Soon Duncan stuffed all the packages into the carriage, took the driver's seat, and drove it away from Hogwarts.

Pomona is getting ready to go back to the greenhouse.

"What's that?" Severus asked as he watched the carriage go away in the night.

"Delivery," Pomona said. "Come in for a drink?"

After she finished speaking, she went straight back to the greenhouse without waiting for his reply.

The first snow has fallen in Scotland, and although it has not yet formed a snow pack, it is still very different from the warm and spring-like appearance in the greenhouse.

Pomona came to the table under the berry tree, poured himself a glass of wine made from berry juice, and gulped it dry.

"Who is that man driving the carriage?" Severus asked from the greenhouse door.

"You mean Duncan? He's from the Transfiguration Research Office," Pomona said.

"A researcher to deliver?" Severus asked.

"He worked for Dumbledore," Pomona said with a smile, "just like Dumbledore defended you in court."

He gave a false smile.

"Would you like a drink too?" Pomona asked, holding up the wine she brewed in her hand.

"You haven't thought about setting up your own department," Severus said.

"Thinking about it, but I'm afraid people won't like it," Pomona said.

"Who?"

"You."

His shrewd calculations were replaced by an unconcealable surprise on his face.

"I want to make adjustments to the soil and fertilizer composition, and I need a helper," Pomona said.

"You mean me?"

Pomona knew that Slughorn would definitely not join, and judging from the current situation, Snape seemed unwilling either.

How could the great and aloof master of potions deal with feces.

Pomona was a little regretful, she should have told him after he drank the Yuxin plum wine.

"Otherwise, why do you think I support you?" She showed a tricky look.

He showed no obvious displeasure.

"Lucius Malfoy asked me to be Draco's godfather." Severus said "Why do you think?"

Pomona didn't answer right away.

"Thank you, without you, this day would not have happened." He said cautiously and indifferently.

Then he left the greenhouse.

Pomona poured another glass of Yuxin plum wine and drank it all in one gulp.

In fact, Viscount Vermont's mood is not difficult to understand. The more challenging the "prey", the more interesting it is. Compared with the pure 15-year-old girl who just graduated from the monastery, Mrs. Du Wei is more challenging.

But he was wrong about one thing. The survival instinct of animals will make them fight back when they are really cornered. Beasts will use teeth and claws, deer will use horns, and wild boars will use their fangs, instead of the ignorance he thought. Overwhelmed.

In the struggle between life and death, wrong judgment will also kill the hunter. The hare will also carry rabies. After all, it is the prey of the wolf dog. If the rabbit has been bitten by a wolf dog with rabies, it will also carry rabies.

Pomona looked at the remaining red wine in the glass, stuck out his tongue, and licked the juice from the corner of his mouth.

It tastes sour and sweet, and has a special fragrance, not only loved by animals, but also by people.
