Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

Chapter 343 Thestrals and Hogwarts

The train drove slowly through the village of Hogsmeade, and darkness enveloped the entire wizarding village. From the train, Hogsmeade looked lonely and lonely.

The weather tonight was not much better than before. The rain was beating against the windows. Louis could not even see the overall appearance of Hogwarts clearly. The car windows were blocked by the rain. Next to him, Astoria used the reflection of the car window to adjust her long, messy hair.

The train gradually stopped and everyone stood up. They could already hear the noisy sounds outside the train, accompanied by various rhythms of loading and unloading luggage and the noise of some frightened owls. Everyone has their luggage ready and ready to get off.

Ron was dragged by Hermione and ordered to check the carriage. This was their duty as prefects. Of course, Ron's face was full of reluctance.

Luna was holding Harry's Hedwig. Because of Ron and Hermione, he now had to take care of three people's luggage at the same time.

They lined up and slowly walked out of the cubicle. Now, most of the students were rushing to the door. The corridor that originally seemed very spacious became crowded in an instant.

Louis cleverly stored his and Astoria's luggage in the storage space of the Wansheng Stone, which made it much easier for them to move among the crowd.

After finally stepping off the train, the first breath of fresh air at night hit him. Louis could feel the unique smell of the lakeside pine trees in Hogwarts, as well as that call.

Of course, this year, it was not Hagrid’s rough and heroic voice, but instead a deep voice with a chilling air and a hint of vicissitudes of life.

"First-year students, please gather here, hurry up!"

Alastor Moody replaced Hagrid's original position, but perhaps because the old Auror looked too scary, many freshmen did not dare to come forward. A few bold ones also stood there timidly, with small faces. Dare not stare at Moody.

"Professor Moody, are you?" Harry, Luna and Neville behind Louis all caught up. They all knew that Moody would stay at Hogwarts as a security advisor this year, but unexpectedly, Dumbledore He will be asked to do the work of receiving new students.

"Oh, it's you guys." Moody turned around and greeted Harry and the others, "It seems like the trip went smoothly? No problems?"

"Yes, by the way, Professor, where is Hagrid?" Harry looked around and did not see Rubeus Hagrid.

"You mean Hagrid? That big guy was assigned to do other tasks by Dumbledore," Moody said.

"Okay, you guys go now. The party is about to start. I can handle a few kids."

That's what Moody said, but these first-year students may have some shadows of their childhood in their lives.

Lewis couldn't imagine the mentality of this year's first-year students at this moment, and he didn't know why Dumbledore wanted Moody to be the host of this year's first-year students. In short, when they followed the flow of people to the carriage, Astor There was always a little sympathy in Leah's eyes,

They were forced to separate on the road. There was too much traffic, and there were a few drops of rain floating in the sky. Louis still held Astoria tightly with one hand to prevent them from being separated.

The Thestral carriages are waiting for students not far from the Hogsmeade station. Every year, about a hundred carriages gather to pull the first-year students of Hogwarts and above into the castle. These Thestrals are creatures that have been tamed by Hogwarts. They have lived in the Forbidden Forest for a long time. Of course, ordinary wizards cannot see their existence. They think that these cars are driven by magic power.

Lewis could even find among these Thestrals a Thestrals named Wuwu that he rode last year. It seemed to be very familiar with Louis' scent. Once Louis passed by, it would lower its head and touch it like a coquettish way. Holding Louis' arm.

Astoria on the side was almost stunned. In her impression, the Thestral was a symbol of death.

Of course she could see this kind of dark horse, and she heard Hagrid mention it in last year's Care of Magical Creatures class, but at that time she didn't have the opportunity to get up close to this creature.

"Go up."

Louis helped Astoria get into the carriage first in a gentlemanly manner, while he took out all the luggage and placed it at the bottom of the carriage.

After a while, Harry and his friends appeared next to the carriage. Luna naturally recognized the Thestral pulling the carriage as Wu Wu, and she greeted Wu Wu with kindness.

"What is she doing?" Harry was puzzled by Luna's behavior.

Harry cannot see the Thestral's existence now, because he has not witnessed the death with his own eyes. Cedric, who was supposed to die in front of him, is still alive and well in Hogwarts.

"That's the Thestral, Harry." Ginny explained from the sidelines, although she couldn't see what the black horse looked like.

"Thestrals, oh my God, it seems that this has never been mentioned in the books." Hermione knew what thestrals were, but she never knew that it was this kind of creature that pulled the carriage and carried the students to the castle.

However, she was also curious about what the ominous Yeqi in the legend looked like.

The carriage gradually started moving amidst the discussions of several people, and kept moving forward with bumps and swaying. When passing by the statues of two flying pigs with wings, they could see Hagrid's hut standing on the edge of the Forbidden Forest. , but now, there is no life in Hagrid's hut, and the whole house looks bleak.

"Where do you think Hagrid will go?" Harry brought the topic to Hagrid.

"Where else can we go? Mad-Eye has already said that Hagrid will definitely execute Feng...Ouch!"

"Hermione, what are you doing!"

Hermione stepped on Ron hard. Things about the Order of the Phoenix are confidential. Although Luna and Neville are their good friends here, and Neville is even a descendant of the Order of the Phoenix, this kind of thing cannot be compared with For those who don’t know, it’s clear.

"He may have gone to the giant tribe." Louis came out to smooth things over. "You should all know that Hagrid is a hybrid giant."

"Yes, yes, but he should be back soon." Ginny was a little worried, she was afraid that Hagrid would just leave without saying goodbye.

"No, Ginny."

"People in our college think Hagrid is ridiculous, but he is a good teacher, isn't he?" Luna said.

"Ridiculous? Then your sense of humor is completely rubbish." Ron suddenly shouted, he would not allow others to insult his friends like this.

But Luna was not disturbed by Ron's rudeness. She seemed indifferent, as if nothing had happened.

In the dim night, the carriage stopped at the gate of the castle. They dragged their luggage along with the crowd, bid farewell to the Thestral carriage and entered the Hogwarts castle.
