Witcher at Hogwarts

Chapter 58: Aragog's Funeral (2)

"The spiders in the woods are all gone!" Hagrid's **** beetle-like eyes mentioned the sadness and a few tears fell, "In the past, there was always a lively and lively Aragog family, now There is nothing there! It took me days to clean up the broken limbs of the Aragog children!" Hagrid blew his nose with a dirty handkerchief, causing the cabin to vibrate.

Hearing Hagrid's words, Ron's hair stood up and his body leaned back slightly. He couldn't even imagine the scene of "the big family of eight-eyed giant spiders." There were so many terrifying creatures in the Forbidden Forest in the distance, and Ron couldn't help but be afraid.

Seeing that Hagrid's emotions were getting a little out of control, Dumbledore hurriedly persuaded him: "Hagrid, I advise you to also talk about loyalty and love. For my sake, forgive Ethan."

"But...but..." Hagrid was still a little sad and couldn't help himself.

"Hagrid, I don't think I can save this situation no matter how much I say sorry, I want to give this to you." Ethan dug out of his bag and took out a white beach ball the size of a beach ball. , soft eggs, which Ethan found in the eight-eyed giant spider's lair.

Although the eggs of the eight-eyed giant spider are Class A prohibited trade items, Ethan put away the eggs in the spirit of coming here, but he didn't expect them to come in handy here.

Hagrid took the giant eight-eyed spider egg in Ethan's hand tremblingly, stared at it for a while, and finally cried bitterly while holding it. Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief. He could see that he got the giant eight-eyed spider egg. Hagrid of Spider Egg has forgiven Ethan.

Hagrid was given Aragog's eggs by a tourist. He took it into the castle, raised it in a storage room in the dungeon, and now that Hagrid has lost Aragog and has an egg again, it's a wonderful cycle of life, making everyone sitting here People can't help but sigh.

After Hagrid calmed down, Dumbledore gently reminded Hagrid that the funeral could begin. Hagrid stood up slowly, "Okay, let's start now." Hagrid sniffed and said, and then led the way. The people left their huts,

"Is it buried here, Hagrid, in your garden?" Harry looked at the huge spider corpse in front of him and was a little apprehensive.

"Behind the pumpkin patch, I think." Hagrid choked. "I've dug... graves. Just thought we should say something... good memories..."

Ron strongly disagrees with this sentence. He believes that if he is allowed to stay with this terrifying spider, it is absolutely impossible to have any "good memories".

Everyone went into the back garden, and the moon glowed bleakly between the trees, mixed with the light from Hagrid's window, and shone on Aragog's body lying on the edge of a large pit, next to a pile of ten feet. High new soil.

Everyone stared at Aragog's huge headless body, feeling a little weird, "Ethan!" Dumbledore softly attracted Ethan's attention.

Ethan found Dumbledore winking at him, realizing that Dumbledore wanted Ethan to return Aragog's head. This made Ethan a little embarrassed. The witcher was somewhat obsessive about collecting monster heads as trophies.

Unable to bear the pressure in Dumbledore's eyes, Ethan reluctantly took out Aragog's head and put it together with Aragog's body.

It was the first time that Harry Ron and Hermione saw Aragog's full face, and they moved closer to him curiously. The eight milky white eyes stared blankly at the sky, and the two curved horns were motionless in the moonlight.

"Not all people appreciate their beauty," Hagrid said to the backs of Harry Ron and Hermione, tears streaming down the corners of his wrinkled eyes, "I don't know what you think of Arago. Animals like Gram are interested."

"Now... let's start the funeral?" Dumbledore said.

Hagrid nodded, stepped forward, dragged Aragog, shouted, and rolled it into the black pit. There was a terrible creaking noise as the body hit the bottom of the pit, and Hagrid cried again.

"Of course, you can't stand it, because you know him best." Dumbledore could only reach Hagrid's elbow, but he patted him anyway, "Let me say something."

Dumbledore said in a slow, solemn tone: "Farewell, Aragog, Lord of Spiders, those who know you will not forget your long and loyal friendship! Although your flesh will rot, your spirit will remain with you. The quiet, cobwebbed place of the forest home. May your many-eyed descendants flourish, and may your human friends find solace in their grief."

"That's right...that's right...that's beautiful!" Hagrid howled and fell on the dung heap, crying even more fiercely.

"Okay, okay," said Dumbledore with a wave of his wand, and the mound of dirt rose ~www.NovelMTL.com~ dully on top of the dead spider, forming a smooth mound, "We Come in and have a drink."

Everyone helped Hagrid up and onto a chair at the table, and Fang, who had been hiding in the basket during the funeral, came gently over, resting his heavy head on Harry's lap as usual .

Ethan opened the bottle of wine he brought, poured some for everyone present, and poured the remaining half of the bottle into Hagrid's bucket-sized glass.

Harry Ron and Hermione looked at the cup in front of them with some embarrassment. According to the school rules, they were not allowed to drink alcohol, especially in front of Dumbledore.

"Only this time today." Dumbledore squeezed his eyes when he saw the tangled three little wizards.

Dumbledore stood up and raised his cup aloft, "For Aragog."

"Aragog," said everyone together.

Hagrid, Dumbledore and Ethan drank the wine in their cups in one gulp, while the three little wizards all took a shallow sip.

Several people sat together and started chatting. "I raised him from an egg," Hagrid said sadly. "How small was he when he hatched, and he was the size of a pug."

"It's lovely," said Dumbledore.

Harry Ron and Hermione shuddered at the thought of Aragog's terrifying appearance. They didn't realize that the eight-eyed giant spider would be cute when they were young.

"I used to keep him in the school cabinet until... alas..." Hagrid let out a long sigh.

The three little wizards looked at Hagrid curiously, and they also wanted to know what happened.

Dumbledore saw their doubts, so he told Harry, Ron and Hermione about the details of the Chamber of Secrets incident fifty years ago.
