 Novel: The Poisoned Egg at Hogwarts Author: Jiang Xiaozhou

=========================

　　"I can meet Dementors, what's going on?" Egg looked at Dumbledore expectantly: "I find that there are more and more strange things happening to me, which makes me feel a little inexplicable, and things are not up to me. It feels bad to be in control, so I thought I should come to you and ask."

　　Dumbledore nodded suddenly: "That's true. It seems that we all have the same shortcomings, Egg. We always want things to develop according to our wishes..."

　　Fox moved his paws, looked at Egg, turned his head in the other direction, squatted down, and continued to sleep. Dumbledore leisurely sat on a soft chair nearby: "I just went to the bathroom. The nightlife of the elderly is not stable..."

　　Looking at Egg, who was speechless and slightly helpless, Dumbledore laughed: "I...I have never heard of any bloodline like yours...but I do know an interesting legend."

　　Egger was stunned, why is this related to the legend?

　　"According to legend, humans themselves do not have magical abilities, because strictly speaking, humans should be considered a member of animals, not magical animals." Dumbledore clapped his hands gently, and a piece of chocolate cake appeared in front of him. , the old man's light blue eyes glanced at Egger gently: "Want some?"

　　"Uh... no, thank you..." Iger waved his hand and refused: "So, what is the significance of this legend?"

　　"Of course it makes sense. Human beings evolved from animals. There is no doubt about this." Dumbledore looked at Egger: "But some wizards believe that wizards' abilities are not possessed by humans, but by themselves." The abilities retained by another creature in the bloodline, such as demons, goblins, elves and the like in legends from various countries..."

　　Looking at Egger's surprised look, Dumbledore chuckled: "This is not surprising. Professor Flitwick is of half-elf blood. The elf blood also brought him unique magical talents. He also obtained a gift when he was young. The champion of the duel competition had a lot of half-elf blood when the goblins rebelled hundreds of years ago."

　　"Or Hagrid, I think you should know that he is a half-giant. Ordinary spells are of no use to him. This is also an ability that comes from blood." Dumbledore said with a smile: "So, this point of view It is still recognized by many people, in fact, even I think what they said makes sense."

　　"From my personal point of view, you may have too much power from your bloodline, which has led to some atavism in certain aspects, such as wandless spellcasting or resistance to dementors. After all, in addition to Humans and other creatures are not very sensitive to dementors, and it is difficult for dementors to detect the emotions of animals." Dumbledore said slowly: "You should be similar to them."

　　Egger nodded suddenly. Dumbledore looked at Egger curiously: "I thought you would dig deep to find the secret of your life experience. I have seen children like you who don't know their origins and eventually go astray. But judging from your appearance, you don't need to worry about me..."

　　"Why should I search for my own life experience?" Egg looked at Dumbledore with a puzzled face: "I don't live for others, why should I make myself uncomfortable?"

　　"You have seen it very clearly, child..." Dumbledore was slightly absent-minded: "Okay, go back to bed quickly. If I remember correctly, you have classes tomorrow? The Patronus Charm is a very difficult magic. You need to spend some time. Be more attentive."

　　"Okay, good night, professor..." Iger nodded, turned around and left calmly.

　　Dumbledore looked at the door where Egg left without saying a word for a long time. Then he dug out another piece of chocolate with the small spoon in his hand and put it into his mouth...

　　"There was something you didn't say just now, Albus." Phineas opened his eyes at some point and leaned against the picture frame to look at Dumbledore.

　　"Really?" Dumbledore looked at the portrait beside him in surprise.

　　"That child is not a pure human being." Phineas looked at Dumbledore angrily: "Okay, stop pretending."

　　"Oh..." Dumbledore looked at Phineas as if he was confused: "So?"

　　WTM! Phineas paused for a moment, not knowing what to say.

　　"Egg is a human being. This is undisputed Phineas." Dumbledore looked at Phineas's portrait calmly: "He has flesh and blood, a warm breath of life, and his affection and love are equally different. The most important thing is that he doesn't have a tail..."

　　Dumbledore seemed to be amused by his own words: "Don't you like him?"

　　Phineas snorted and stopped talking. He closed his eyes and began to pretend to sleep. Dumbledore chuckled and returned to the room above the office with a few words.

　　…

　　"Today, what we are going to learn is a very important and very difficult magic." Egger flicked the wand in his hand and looked at the frightened sixth graders below: "Okay, okay, put away your panic. You don't have to fight with me today…"

　　Suddenly cheers came from below, and even Percy looked excited.

　　"But what you are going to face today is a dementor..." Egg looked down with a smile. The laughter in the classroom suddenly stopped. Wood's smile froze on his face, as if a dementor was suddenly strangled. cock.

　　A whimpering sound came, and a Hufflepuff female voice not far away leaned weakly on the chair, her face pale, and even the boys who had always been bolder were sweating on their foreheads at this time...

　　The class schedule is different every year in the same school year. This year, the sixth graders are Gryffindor and Hufflepuff who are taking Defense Against the Dark Arts class together. Egger looks down happily. The students who were waiting to die felt in a good mood.

　　"Come and learn from me. Think about the happiest thing in your life, or the happiest thing in your dreams. Come with me: call for divine protection!" Egg shook his wand.

　　"Calling the gods to protect you..." came a mixed and depressed voice. The eyes of the students below had no luster. It seemed that they really couldn't think of anything to be happy about...

　　Egg's smile did not change, he stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and half of the chains on the outside of the big box behind him suddenly disappeared: "I will only teach it three times at most, and then I will release the dementors. Those who have not been summoned by then will Students can only hope for their own blessings..."

　　"Calling the Gods to protect you!" Wood stood up suddenly and shouted, forcing himself to think of something happy, with a trace of tears on his pale face. Egg felt that he must have thought of something very happy, and he cried with joy...

　　As the white light on the tip of Wood's wand glowed, the classroom suddenly became excited. Each student screamed and raised his wand, thinking about happy things in his mind, shouting for divine protection. Suddenly, the entire classroom was filled with excitement. It was a vast expanse of white inside.

　　Egger grinned, yes, the desire to survive can be said to be very strong...

　　What a successful Defense Against the Dark Arts class and the students were very smart...

　　Egger felt sincerely happy. This may be the most efficient class he has ever taught as a substitute...

　　Sure enough, without pressure, there would be no motivation? Egg looked thoughtfully at the students below, wondering what he was thinking.

　　"Very good!" Iger clapped his hands and signaled for everyone to pause. Most of the students at this time were excited. However, after seeing Iger, everyone's emotions quickly cooled down. Iger's smile seemed to them at this time. Colder than a Dementor, this is a chill that even the Patronus cannot dispel.

　　"But a thin barrier can only stop the dementors from invading you at most. I need you to summon a complete patron saint." Iger shook his wand: "I will give you thirty seconds to think about it. What could make you happier than what you just thought about?"

　　"Start..." As he said that, Egger casually took out his pocket watch...

　　A group of students hurriedly searched through their memories, hoping to find what made them happiest. Others were imagining how happy their lives would be in the future.

　　Soon, Egger put away his pocket watch: "Okay, everyone, come and learn from me for the second time, call the gods to protect you!"

　　"Call the gods to protect you!"

　　This time, the shouts in the room were unexpectedly unified. With a few swishes, four or five complete patron saints jumped out and were tumbling in the sky above the room, as if they had been intensified by something. The tips of several people's staffs continued to tremble, and seven or eight more patron saints emerged one after another. The room at this time was extremely holy.

　　"Very good!" Iger clapped his hands, but was secretly surprised in his heart. He originally planned to scare him, but he never thought that the seriousness of this group of students would surprise him.

　　Looking at the tumbling patron saints in front of him with a smile, Egg nodded: "Okay, put away your patron saints."

　　Seeing the students put away their patronus, Egger snapped his fingers again. The chain on the box behind him had been completely opened. With a bang, the Dementor reached out a hand from the box. The temperature of the room It suddenly dropped.

　　Egger stepped on the box and firmly stuck the dementor's head that had just popped out on the edge of the box. A few meters away, the dementor sucked in the happy emotions that the students had just generated. In the classroom where the temperature dropped sharply, a group of students turned pale, and some girls even closed their eyes in fear.

　　"How do you feel?" Egg looked at the students around him cheerfully: "Do you feel that you will never be happy again? When you face the dementors, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net What you have to do is, It is in this cold, dead and desperate situation that your happiest and most intense emotions are born. This...is the most difficult part of the Patronus Spell."

　　Egger made it very clear that eating at the dining table is very pleasant, but eating in the toilet is not so pleasant. Many people cannot eat it. This is the same as the Patronus Charm.

　　Looking at the pale-faced students below, Egger stepped on the box and waved his wand cheerfully: "Come, come and learn from me for the last time: call the gods to protect you!"

　　"Call the Guardians!" screams rang out one after another. Perhaps it was the classmates around them who gave each other courage. To Egger's surprise, there were more Guardians summoned this time than the previous one! Even the students who had not reacted much just twice had the tips of their sticks trembling violently.

　　However, Wood's expression of crying while releasing the patron saint was selectively ignored by Egger.

　　"Very good! Warigood!" Egg stuffed the Dementor back into the box, sat down on the box, looked down and clapped his hands: "Excellent beyond my expectation!"

　　Then Iger shook his wand, and pieces of rich and fragrant dark chocolate appeared on the students' tables: "Eat some chocolate, I think you may feel better."

　　"Don't we need to face that thing?" Wood looked at the box under Egg's butt with some horror.

　　"This is not prepared for you, this is the final exam for lower-grade students..." Egg looked at the students happily: "Of course, the practical exam for the final exam this year for students who are not participating in the Basilisk Crusade will also be the soul-catching exam. Strange…"

　　The girl who collapsed with fear just now moaned feebly: "I want to write a letter to my mother and ask her to agree to my expedition to conquer the basilisk..."
