Chapter 220 308 Harry's Christmas
In addition to the corpses being cleaned up, there are some bonfires that existed in the tribe and were later lit by the house-elves.
Some yurt-like tents are used as the residence of the horse people.
There are still a few fruit trees that have not been cut down in the tribe's yard, which should be specially reserved by the horsemen.
This kind of creature is not good at farming and is better at hunting. However, as an omnivorous creature, they also need some fruits, so fruit trees are a very good choice.
There are several rows of wooden racks on both sides of the yard, with some unknown meat hanging on them, and some wooden spears, bows and arrows and other weapons in the corners.
It seems that this tribe is completely different from the tribe near Hogwarts who knew Hagrid. That tribe is closer to humans and more kind, while this tribe is brutal and warlike in terms of the environment and their previous behavior.
"Puffs,"
Finny opened his mouth and shouted,
"Are there any clues found in this tribe? Strokes, steles, or other things that can record their history."
Puff shook his head, and said to Finny,
"I didn't find it, young master. This tribe should have been established not long ago. The wood used for construction in the tribe has not been completely dried, and the meat hanging to dry has not been dried."
Feeney turned his head to look at the wall of the tent, stretched out his hand and touched it. Sure enough, there was still moisture on the wood, and it was indeed built recently as Puff said.
Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at Puff, and asked,
"Is there any tribal location before they were found?"
Puff bowed, shook his head, and said,
"Master, it's useless for the puffs. I haven't found their previous tribal location."
Feeney waved his hand and said indifferently,
"Forget it if you can't find it, take me to the cave near here to have a look."
Puff nodded, took Finny's hand, turned around and disappeared in place,
When it appeared again, it was already outside the cave.
Feeney looked at the cave carefully, and sure enough, as he guessed before, it has some connection with the centaur tribe.
Because this cave is not formed naturally, but has man-made traces. Although these traces are very rough, it also proves from another angle that it is the handwriting of the horse people.
After all, if it is a human being or a wizard, it is completely possible to achieve a less rough situation, and under the magic of the wizards, it can be done without any traces, as if it was like that from the beginning, which is obviously not the case here.
Finny waved his gloved left hand lightly, and a faint blue flame appeared in the palm of his hand out of thin air.
It is the Gublai Immortal Fire, a flame that will never go out unless disturbed by external forces, and is also very suitable for lighting.
And the glove used by Finny to cast the magic just now is the magic item he obtained in the Gryffindor explosion. When dealing with the ambush of the vampires, the use of the enchantment caused the item to be damaged. Now it took a holiday and finally it was repaired.
It's just that this time Finny no longer regards it as a tool for storing magic power, but as a tool for casting spells, so that it will not cause harm to it under normal circumstances.
After all, repairing such a magic item is quite laborious. If it is an alchemy item, it is okay to say, find that Alchemy Black to make a new one, or just repair this one.
But it is not an alchemy item, but a pure magic item formed by Gryffindor's long-term use and impregnated magic. In addition, Finney used the personification magic invented by Gryffindor on him, forming Unique magic props,
It's really not easy to fix.Therefore, even Finny doesn't want it to be damaged again, because if it is really damaged, he will definitely not repair it again.
At the same time, Finny drew out his wand from his right hand, ready to be on guard at any time.
The reason why I didn't use a magic wand to cast lighting magic, but use magic gloves is because the situation in the cave in front of me is not clear.
Feeney always has to take some precautions. Compared with magic gloves, the power of magic wands is more powerful. Magic gloves are more suitable for some daily magic spells, such as the Gublai fairy fire that was used just now. If you can use it, you still need to use a wand. Of course, if the wand is disarmed, you can use magic gloves for emergency.
Although Puff is with Puff at this time, no one can guarantee that Puff will protect Puff and that Puff will not be in danger.
Fini and Puff walked into the cave under the light of the Gublai fairy fire. The fairy fire was not so bright, and could only faintly illuminate the scene ahead, but it still seemed to be adequate.
The faint light seemed to cast another layer of mist in front of the eyes of Finny and Puff, faintly and faintly visible.
The cave is huge, much larger than it appears from the outside.The cave itself is built on the mountain, most of the cave body is in the mountain, and it looks like it is only the size of a small hillside, but in fact, the terrain inside the cave is indeed getting lower and lower, and the whole is also downward.
In other words, even if the deepest part of the cave is under the mountain, the area will naturally be much larger.
The cave was not as cold as Finny had imagined, perhaps because there was no cold wind blowing inside at this time.
However, although it is not as dry and cold as outside, there is also some gloomy air brought by humidity.
The stone walls on both sides of the cave are also icicles formed by the drops of dew condensed when they meet the cold air. Together with the ice stains formed by some water stains on the ground, they look beautiful under the bright light of the fairy fire. Huan, like a fairyland.
However, such a beautiful scene seemed extremely dangerous to Feeney.
As the saying goes, the more beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is. Animals and plants are like this. Feeney believes that the environment is also like this.
Brightly colored poisonous snakes must be highly poisonous, and brightly colored mushrooms must also be poisonous mushrooms. In the lush and colorful forest, there must be many poisonous substances hidden under the blooming flowers, waiting for the opportunity to give Deadly blow with prey.
At this time, any danger in this cave is not unexpected.
However, it turns out that Feeney was thinking too much. Until the end of the cave, he and Puff were not attacked, or in other words, there was no breath of life in this cave.
The entire cave is full of ice and rocks, no plants, let alone animals.Naturally, there will be no danger or attack.
Looking at the empty cave with nothing in it, Feeney was still very disappointed. He never expected that there would be nothing in such a cave specially built by the centaurs, not only no clues from the centaurs, but also no Hufflepuff clues, not to mention the so-called Hufflepuff's treasure.
However, Finny was still a little unwilling, and told Puff,
"Puff, you go and inform the popsicles, call some house elves, and clean out this cave for me, I don't want any piece of ice or extra rocks here, and, insert all of them here Put on the torch, if there are any objects, statues, inscriptions that should not be in this cave, you must inform me, I don’t believe it, this cave is a useless, ordinary cave.”
Let's not mention the incompetent rage on Feeney's side.This Christmas, Harry has had an experience like never before.
This is the first time Harry spends Christmas in the wizarding world, and it is also the first time he spends Christmas with relatives other than his uncle and aunt.
Not to mention that this family member is also a good friend of his parents, and his good friend Ron is also celebrating the festival with him.
Under Feeney's arrangement, they celebrated the holiday on a private island near the UK. This is a private manor with a fairly good view. The building is not a castle commonly used by wizards, but a villa among Muggles. There is an artificial hot spring, as well as many entertainments commonly used by families in the magic world, to enjoy the setting,
Harry had never seen these things, and he had never even heard of many of them.
You can clean your own iron pot, the sink where you can wash your own dishes, and the kitchen where you can cook without being controlled by a wizard.
You can even make a sound to read your own books automatically, just pour hot water into the teapot and milk will come out, and wave the magic wand to change the brightness of the room, the environment, the decoration of the temperature, and so on.It's just that when Harry and the others first came here, it could still be seen that few people came here.
Not to mention, Sirius brought a house-elf over to serve them,
On the night of Christmas, Harry saw a grand dinner that he had never seen before.
Sirius even got three broomsticks and flew Harry and Ron around the courtyard of the manor, and even got a set of equipment used by the French Quidditch national team to help Harry train.
In his spare time, he will also teach Harry and Ron some common and simple magic through the books in the study room of the villa, expand their spell reserves, and use magic power.
After all, in fact, although little wizards learned some magic in the first few years, it was more related to the control of magic power. Even most of the exams were about this aspect.
Household magic, or daily magic, can be said to be the magic that requires the most precise control of magic power. They are often the kind that only need a small amount of magic power to play the desired role.
Harry never thought that he could still receive presents on Christmas, and as a result, he was very surprised when he saw his name on the small pile of presents in the hall on the morning of the second Christmas .
"Merry Chrismas,"
Confused, Harry put on his coat and walked out of the room to greet Ron.
Ron was sitting next to the Christmas tree unwrapping his presents, and said to Harry,
"Merry Christmas, what do you think you will get?"
Ron's gifts are much bigger than Harry's pile, after all, he has many more friends and relatives than Harry.
Harry casually picked up the paper bag on the top of the chess piece, and opened the thick kraft paper on the outside, on which was written Hagrid's congratulations, and inside was a flute made by Hagrid himself. full of heart.
The second packet, which was much smaller, was from Harry's aunt and uncle, and contained only a fiftypence piece.
"Still friendly!"
Harry said with emotion that he never thought that his uncle and aunt would give him a Christmas present,
Ron had never seen a Muggle coin, so Harry gave him this one,
Harry looked at the remaining gifts and said suspiciously,
"From Hagrid, from my uncle and aunt, and what about these?"
Ron's face was a little red, and he said shyly,
"I think I know who sent this one,"
Pointing to a bulging paper bag, he said,
"It's my mother, I told her you thought you wouldn't get a gift, so she knitted you a special Weasley sweater. Me, George, Fred, Percy, all have one, Oh, by the way, Finny has one too."
Harry tore open the paper packet, and looked inside the bright green trade, and the large box of homemade sweets,
"She knits a sweater for us every year, and after Millennium and Finny got to know each other, she knits one for Finny too. Mine is always burgundy."
The next gift was from Finny, and it was the photo album. When Harry saw this gift, his eye circles turned red.
At this time, Sirius also came out. Seeing the photo album in Harry's hand, he was also taken aback for a moment, and then asked,
"Is it a gift from Finny?"
Harry nodded and asked suspiciously,
"How do you know, Sirius?"
Sirius touched his head and said,
"He wrote me a few days before Christmas asking for pictures of me from Hogwarts, well, these are the ones."
As he spoke, he pointed to the photo of him, James, and Lupine together in the photo album,
"Later, Lupine told me that Feeney also took some pictures from him," he said.
Harry nodded, and pointed to the first sheet of the booklet, which was a photo of his parents holding his newborn self, and asked suspiciously,
"What about this one?"
Sirius was stunned when he saw this photo. They did take a similar photo before, but it was not in this environment.
"I'm not very clear. There are many photos here that I haven't seen before. Feeney should have other contact information with people Lily knows."
Ron nodded and said,
"He's always been associated with a lot of wizards, and he's called Harry's mum and senpai, as if they're very close."
Sirius secretly wrote down this matter in his heart, thinking about going back and asking carefully, he was indeed a prodigal son before, but now he has turned his head back, Sirius is still very guilty about his youngest brother, I have always wanted to make up for him, but I couldn't find a chance.
