Chapter 130 Tears of the Phoenix, forced to sacrifice

cold.Bitter chill.

Although he had just stepped out of the sea of ​​flames, Lu Ren still felt the chill from his bone marrow.He smelled death.It was the first time he had experienced the feeling of death in two lifetimes.

Lu Ren's vision gradually blurred, and suddenly, he saw a big black dog.

The black dog suddenly turned into a wizard, he picked up Lu Ren and ran outside the Forbidden Forest.Lu Ren who was held in his arms could only feel the bumps, and his eyes gradually fell into darkness...

He was falling gradually in the darkness, as if he was about to fall into the abyss. Suddenly, a phoenix sound rang in his ears. Afterwards, his already cold body felt a little warmer, and Lu Ren felt that he was starting to escape from the abyss again—— Phoenix carried it.

Then he fell asleep.

When he woke up, he felt so weak that he didn't even want to move his little finger.The first thing that caught his eyes was Dumbledore's pair of crescent glasses.

"Good afternoon, Lu Ren," said Dumbledore. "A few minutes ago, Poppy said that you were going to wake up soon. Sure enough, you woke up not long after."

Lu Ren stared blankly at Dumbledore. He didn't expect that he was still alive. He glanced at his palm, which was still the ruddy palm of a young man.

He realized that he was in the school hospital. He was lying on a hospital bed covered with clean white sheets, and the condolences on the table next to him were piled up like hills.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his arm. He turned his head to look and found a big red bird staring at him viciously. It was Fox.

But why are the bird's eyes so swollen?

"Ahem, in order to rescue you back, Fox contributed a lot of tears." Dumbledore explained, and he kicked a trash can full of onions under another hospital bed.Then he took out a box of chocolate frogs from the gifts, opened it and handed one to Lu Ren.Of course, he also naturally chose one that was pleasing to the eye.

"It's all gifts from Miss Granger, Miss Brown, and others—of course, Mr. Malfoy and Mr. Potter..." Dumbledore said with a smile, "But they don't know about the things in the Forbidden Forest for the time being. I took the initiative to hide this matter for you."

"Thank you, Professor. It was a great help. That big spider, Aragog, how is it?" Lu Ren was a little worried about Aragog's condition. It doesn't matter whether its descendants die or not. , otherwise Hagrid would probably be very sad.

And this old spider has indeed fulfilled its promise of never harming humans in its life—although it has played tricks, but there is no way, it is too old.But if this guy really had bad luck and died in the sea of ​​fire, that's fine. After all, Lu Ren was already fighting for his life at that time, and he had no time to spare him.

"Aragok survived. He dug himself a deep hole in his lair. But his descendants suffered heavy casualties."

Lu Ren breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the old spider is alive.

"Professor, how long have I been in a coma?" He asked a question that he was somewhat concerned about.

Dumbledore didn't answer in a hurry, he patiently put the chocolate frog into his mouth, chewed it slowly, and then handed a piece of Woodcraft's Hengis to Lu Ren. "I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

Lu Ren's face froze, "Then let's hear the bad news first."

"You were in a coma for a month."

Lu Ren: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

"What about the good news?"

"It's almost Christmas now, and you have plenty of time to make up lessons. Harry, Mr. Weasley, and Miss Granger will be relieved to know that you've woken up. They've been very worried."

Lu Ren: ...

He couldn't imagine how much homework he owed now, this Christmas will be as fulfilling as the winter vacation of senior high school students.

Lu Ren took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and asked the last question: "Professor, I'm still very surprised. How did I survive? And I didn't feel any aftereffects. To be honest, my trick The cost is basically equivalent to my own life, and the current state makes me a little confused."

There was an imperceptible sadness in Dumbledore's eyes, "I used Fox's tears to hang you at first, but it could only keep your injury from getting worse—" Fox let out an angry cry , pecked at Dumbledore and Lu Ren fiercely respectively, and then disappeared with swollen eyes. "Then I wanted to contact Nico, but Getler wrote me a letter because he couldn't contact you..."

Dumbledore rubbed his hands, "Then he knew everything, and sent me a howling letter... My German vocabulary has improved a lot because of this, and I learned a few novel expressions—of course this is not The important point. Getler actually has a small vault that I don't even know about, and there are several treasures hidden in it, including a small piece of the Sorcerer's Stone, which he gave to you."

"So the Philosopher's Stone saved me?"

Dumbledore spread his hands: "Yes, that's it. But don't be careless just because the current state is intact, many costs will not be revealed for a while..." His expression became very serious.

The two were silent for a while.At this moment, Madam Pomfrey, who was full of anger, interrupted their silence.

"How long are you going to stay! He needs to rest!"

Dumbledore raised his hands, made a French military salute, and left the school hospital while nodding in agreement.Ms. Pomfrey, the school doctor, is a very strict but kind woman, and the school hospital is her domain.Dumbledore has absolute authority at Hogwarts, but there are two places he cannot control: the hospital hospital and the library.

At this time, Ms. Pomfrey made a "field expansion", and Dumbledore voted directly, and quickly evacuated from the school hospital.

Lu Ren looked at Madam Pomfrey, "Just let them watch for 5 minutes, just 5 minutes!" He begged, knowing that Harry and the others must be outside the door.

"No, absolutely not."

"Professor Dumbledore can come in..."

"He is the principal, you have to give him face, you need to rest."

"I'm resting, you see, I'm just lying on the bed, doing nothing, and I don't see them, I feel restless, and I can't rest well..."

Madam Pomfrey considered for a while, "Okay, but it's only 5 minutes." She opened the door of the "Realm" and let the three of them in.

"Lu Ren!"

Hermione pushed the other two away and rushed to the hospital bed first. It seemed that she wanted to stretch out her arms to hug Lu Ren, but she restrained herself in time, which disappointed Lu Ren.

"Oh, Lu Ren, we all thought you were going to—you have been unconscious, and Professor Dumbledore was very worried—"

"The rumors outside are crazy, and there are all kinds of theories." Ron interjected, "What happened in the Forbidden Forest?"

Lu Ren pondered for a while, but chose to keep it a secret. If he told Ron what happened in the Forbidden Forest, the whole school might know about it the next day, which would be bad for his relationship with Hagrid.So he casually made up a few reasons to fool the past.

　Ask for anything.
