"Come up to this fence, everybody!" cried Hagrid. "That's right—stand where you can see it. Now, the first thing we're going to do is open our books—"

"How to open it?" Draco said in a cold and drawn out tone.

He didn't pay attention to the movement of Draco and Hagrid, because a familiar figure appeared on the edge of the Forbidden Forest not far away.

Why didn't Xiao Hei go back to the castle?Still spinning around the dangerous Forbidden Forest!

"No - no one will be able to open the book" at this point, Hagrid asked, looking downcast.

The whole class, including Potter, Weasley and Granger, shook their heads.

Draco held up the Book of Monsters which he had tied with a rope.

The other students scooped up their books too: some, like Draco, bound theirs up too; others put the book in a strong bag or held it in a big clip...

"Must go through the books," said Hagrid, looking as if it was the most obvious thing in the world, "Look..."

Hagrid scooped up the Granger book, tore off the tape that bound it, and slid his index finger up and down the spine before the book tried to bite or run away, and the murderous book trembled, and then It opened automatically, and lay quietly on Hagrid's hand.

"Oh, how stupid you are!" Draco sneered, "You should read these books! Why didn't you think of that!"

Many students expressed their agreement by nodding or laughing.

"I think these books are very interesting." Hagrid looked at Granger and the others, hesitatingly said.

This big man, his self-confidence has completely disappeared before class.

"Oh, how ridiculous!" said Draco, "so clever, you want to tear up your handwriting!"

"Shut up, Malfoy!" Potter said in Hagrid's favor.

Seeing Xiao Hei circling the dangerous Whomping Willow not far away, he absently untied the belt that was tied with "Book of Monsters and Monsters".

"what--"

The book bit her finger mercilessly.

"What's the matter? What happened?" Hagrid asked in panic, dejected.

He stood there at a loss, not even knowing that he should step forward to help the students solve their predicament!

"Idiot, what are you doing?" Draco yelled angrily, grabbed his hand, stretched out his fingers and wiped the spine of the book vigorously.

The book finally fell silent.

Two deep purple marks were left on the poor fingers.

Draco carefully checked one finger, and found that there was nothing wrong with the bone except for two marks, so he reprimanded viciously, "One day, I will die in a daze!"

Guilty "hehe" laughed twice, but didn't dare to answer back.

At the same time, all the girls who hadn't opened the book threw the book to Hagrid...

When I turned around and looked towards the Whooping Willow, Xiao Hei's figure was no longer there.

Maybe it has had enough fun, and went back to the castle by itself, comforting itself...

Hagrid hurriedly helped all the help-seekers to open the book, and then continued his first lesson with Potter's reminder.

"So, then we've got books... oh, now we need just magical creatures. Yes, let's go find them... wait..." said Hagrid, confused and incoherent.

He hurried off into the woods alone, and was out of sight for a while.

The students who were suddenly left behind looked at each other, and gathered together in twos and threes to discuss.

"Oh oh oh——" a Gryffindor girl—Lavender Brown pointed across the paddock.

screamed.

Hagrid led a group of huge creatures over.

They have the body, hind legs and tail of a horse, but their front legs, wings and head appear to be eagles, they have sharp steel-colored beaks and large bright orange eyes.The claws on their front legs are half a foot long, and they are absolutely deadly if grasped.Each beast had a thickly feathered collar round its neck, to which was attached a long chain, and the ends of these chains were held in Hagrid's large hand as he trotted after the animals out into the paddock.

"Go over there!" yelled Hagrid, shaking the chain and yelling at the big guys to come over to the fence where the class was standing.

Everyone backed away a little when Hagrid came up and chained the guys to the fence.

The crowd was clearly divided into two factions, the Slytherin students led by Draco stood on the right, and the Gryffindor students crowded on the left.

"Hippogriffs!" bellowed Hagrid happily, waving his hand at the students. "They're pretty, aren't they?"

This half-giant seems to have fully recovered from the shock of the book incident just now.

It's a pity that even the three of Potter and the others didn't cheer him up.

These big half-hawk, half-horse guys actually all have beautiful, shiny fur that transitions smoothly from feather to fur in different colors: dark gray, bronze, pink sandy (red and white), shiny Maroon, and finally jet black.

If you ignore their long, large, pointed beaks and large stone-blue hard claws, it is indeed admirable.

"Then," Hagrid didn't seem to notice that the students were worried. He rubbed his hands together a little excitedly, and smiled at all the students, "if you want to get closer..."

No one seems to want to do this!

Crowded in a large group of Gryffindors, Potter, Weasley and Granger looked at each other, and leaned cautiously towards the fence as if to make Hagrid feel better.

"Well, the first thing you have to know about hippogriffs is that they're pride," Hagrid said loudly, with a satisfied smile on his face, "it's easy to offend them! Never offend a hippogriff." Winged beasts, because that's probably the last thing to do."

Draco was whispering to Crabbe and Goyle Draco, "Listen, Draco, this isn't nonsense!"

Draco glared, "This kind of basic knowledge has already been seen in the first grade!"

Well, ignorant again!

"Always wait for the hippogriff to make the move first," Hagrid went on. "It's polite, you know? Go up to it, bow, and wait. If it returns the salute, you can touch it." .If it doesn't bow, then get away from it quickly, because these claws are going to hurt...well - whoever comes first"

In response, most of the students backed away.

Hippogriffs are shaking their heads angrily and spreading their mighty wings; they don't seem happy being chained like this! ,

"Is there no one?" Hagrid asked, a pleading look on his face.

"Come on!" Potter gritted his teeth and walked towards the fence.

There were several sobs from the Gryffindor crowd.

Potter resolutely climbed over the paddock fence.

"Well done, Harry!" cried Hagrid. "Well - let's see how we get on with that Buckbeak hippogriff."

With that, Hagrid undid a chain, dragged the hippogriff Buckbeak away from his companion and removed its leather collar.

All the students outside the paddock fell silent.

Draco narrowed his eyes, a familiar malicious smile flashing in his eyes.

Bet he's imagining Potter getting a good bite or claw from a hippogriff...

"Relax, good, Harry!" said Hagrid softly, "you and it have to look at each other, and try not to blink—if you blink too much, the hippogriff won't trust..."

Potter widened his eyes funny, not daring to blink, tears could be clearly seen inside, and he insisted on not closing his eyes.

Buckbeak turned his large, pointy head and looked at Potter with one orange eye.

"That's right," said Hagrid, "that's right, Harry...now, bow..."

Potter hesitated for a long time before he was unwilling to take the risk of showing the back of his neck to Buckbeak. After a slight bow, he straightened up to look...

After a long while, Hagrid had already begun to persuade Potter to back off, before the hippogriff bent its scaly front knee and sank, probably bowing.

Potter walked slowly towards the hippogriff amidst Hagrid's excited yells, reached out to it, and patted its beak several times.

Many students applauded.

Draco had a disappointed look on his face.

Hagrid then encouraged Potter to ride the hippogriff...

After Potter returned to the surface, when Hagrid asked who else would give it a try, Draco immediately walked over.

It was too late to even warn him.

Probably Potter successfully stimulated Draco, he specially chose Potter to ride the hippogriff, and after bowing, he also successfully flew a circle over the Black Lake.

The Slytherins gave Draco a round of applause as he slid off the hippogriff's back.

Draco walked over triumphantly.

"Oh, is it very fulfilling to imitate Harry?" Weasley sneered suddenly unconvinced.

"What are you talking about, stinky red mole!" Draco turned back and countered bluntly, "Do you think everyone is as pushy as a silly baby? Even fainted on the train or predicted that he was going to die to attract Attention everyone!"

"Harry doesn't do that, Malfoy, it's just jealous..." Weasley said loudly.

If in any professor's class, there would never be a situation where students would quarrel, at most they would secretly stare at each other.

But Hagrid clearly didn't know how to maintain discipline in his classroom!

"Really! Then who's talking loudly to promote 'Scarhead', how much credit..." Draco said with a sneer.

Both of them apparently forgot that behind them was a sensitive hippogriff.

The hippogriff that hadn't had time to tie it on looked at Draco with a mocking face. As a beast, it obviously couldn't tell if it was laughing at it or not!

Buckbeak let out a sharp cry, and raised its large steel-gray claws high.

"Watch out, Draco!" Pansy screamed.

"Armor protection!"

"Quickly imprisoned!"

The former is hair, and the latter is Brace hair.

Draco didn't even have time to turn his head, and rolled on the ground with the sound of paws slapping down quickly behind him, narrowly avoiding it.

The Hippogriff was not affected by "Speed ​​Imprisonment" at all, and the steel gray claws did not change at all when they encountered "Armor Protection". The bad thing is, because of these two magics, it seemed to be even more angry, and spread a huge The wings flew up, caught up with Draco in a blink of an eye, and after a slap on his back, screamed and flew away...

Everyone was stunned by the accident in front of them.

Draco lay there motionless, bleeding profusely from his back.

"Draco!" Putting away his wand, he ran over while taking out potions from the interspatial bag.

Only then did everyone react, and it became a mess.

"Hagrid, don't stand around, he's got to be taken to the hospital wing..." Granger screamed over the commotion.

Holding Draco's head, not even sure if he was breathing!

My hands were shaking so much that I couldn't give medicine at all!

"Come on!" Blaise snatched the medicine bottle, poured it into Draco, and then took out a bottle of high-grade hemostatic agent and sprinkled it on Draco's wound.

"No, there must be more treatment!" Pan Xi rushed over like a mad lion.

However, he could only stand by helplessly.

Hagrid picked up Draco and ran towards the castle.

"Watch out for his wounds, you idiot!" screamed Pansy...

Granger had already run over to open the door ahead of time.

The other students stayed in place for a while, then rushed towards the castle in a swarm...
