After the Christmas break, Hogwarts resumed its normal class schedule. To make matters worse, the Scottish Highlands had recently ushered in a cold snap, and the weather suddenly turned cold—it wasn't dry and cold, but wet and cold. The wet air seemed to be enchanted, easily piercing through the defenses of the little wizards.

The spot next to the fireplace suddenly became sought after. And the senior students of each college also gave full play to their subjective initiative and conjured up various "jar fires" to help everyone keep out the cold.

Once this magical application of magic was invented, it quickly became popular. During this time, wherever the little wizards of Hogwarts went, they would carry a small jar in their robes, and the jar contained a blazing flame.

Tom also had a "pot fire" that Hermione made for him, a little charm that Hermione had used since she was in school, and was even better at it now. The fireball she conjured lasts the longest, and it is not a problem for a fireball to burn for a whole morning.

However, in this kind of weather, even with the blessing of "jar fire", it is extremely painful to go to class outside the castle. . The herbal medicine class was fine, the temperature in the greenhouse was not much different from indoors, and the protection of magical animals class was quite painful.

Fortunately, Newt noticed this and changed the teaching plan, arranging the salamander and ash snake lessons for the few days after Christmas.

These two magical animals have one thing in common: they are associated with fire.

Salamanders are small lizards that live in flames and feed on flames. Newt just needs to light a bonfire and move his salamanders into it. He didn't have to do anything next, he just had to happily watch the little wizards collect firewood and fallen leaves everywhere, and watch them add these things to the campfire. He also has to pick out the branches that are too wet, so as not to make too much smoke.

The little wizards were very interested in this little creature, and they spent the whole class watching them jumping around in the burning firewood. After they heated up the fire, the color of the salamanders also changed according to the temperature of the flame, starting from a dazzling white, and then turning blue or bright red.

The Fire Ash Snake course is much more dangerous, and it is Newt who has the confidence to offer this course. Fire Ash Snake was born from "Magic Fire". The so-called "magic fire" is a flame that has been added with magic substances such as floo powder.

It is not difficult to create a fire ash snake, as long as this pile of magic fire is allowed to burn unchecked, a fire ash snake will be created. This process is quite exhausting. Newt stayed up all night to get ready before the Gray Snake class started.

Among the various magical substances for breeding fire snakes, Floo powder is the cheapest, so Newt also chose Floo powder. He first found a big brazier, and then he spent the whole night adding firewood and floo powder to the brazier, and by the time the class started, the ash snake was about to be born.

Newt originally wanted every little wizard to witness the birth of the Ash Snake, but he overestimated his energy: he was too old, and his energy and physical strength could not support the preliminary preparations, and he was worried about letting the students Let's do these things. The magic fire is very dangerous, and it is very important to control the timing of the appearance of the fire gray snake, which can only be done by a seasoned master of magical animals like him. He is worried about letting students do it.

So in the end, only Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff third-years got the chance to watch the birth of Ash Snake. As for the other students, although Newt expressed that everyone was welcome to attend, there were very few responses. Those students either have classes or don't bother to come down. Between watching the ash snake being born and sleeping an extra hour in the morning, they chose to sleep a little longer.

Don't blame them for being lazy - there are still little snowflakes in the sky today! When Tom woke up in the morning and saw the weather, he subconsciously wanted to skip class. Because it meant standing outside in the snow for two hours. The danger of the fire snake made Newt refuse to teach indoors. Even if it was snowing lightly, he insisted on lecturing on the lawn outside the castle.

Tom and Hermione followed the students to the lawn outside the castle. All were wrapped in thick cloaks and gloves, and carried a pot of fire in their arms. In order to keep warm, the girls gave up their usual sneakers and square-toed leather shoes, and put on the boots they had prepared long ago, so as not to erode their tender little feet from the cold air on the ground.

Newt was already standing in the snow when they arrived.

When everyone saw Newt, they were taken aback by the professor's state: he looked very emaciated. His hair was matted, with a lot of charcoal and burnt hair hanging from it. His eyes were bloodshot, his cheeks were sunken, and there was a smoky feeling on his skin.

"It takes a lot of energy to artificially breed the gray snake. You are lucky, because I probably won't try to breed this magical animal again. I'm too tired..." Newt smiled wryly and shook his head. With his gray hair swaying in the wind, he explained to the students why he was so haggard.

At this time, Hufflepuff students also came over one after another, but in the crowd, Tom saw a figure that was familiar but shouldn't be here.

"Luna? Why are you here? Don't you have class in the morning?" Tom was a little surprised, but thinking of Luna's love for magical animals, he felt that it was normal to see Luna here.

"There are two potions classes in the morning." Luna looked a little dazed, as if she hadn't slept well.

Tom:!

The students who heard the conversation between the two around: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

Everyone was surprised by Luna: Is this school girl so brave? Dare to skip Snape's class?

Many people looked at Luna with awe in their eyes. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Dare to skip Snape's class, warrior!

"The appearance of the fire ash snake and the process of laying eggs are very rare, I don't want to miss it." Luna explained a little bit. For her, some things are trade-offs. And she felt that even if she skipped Potions class today, there would be no serious consequences.

At this time, the students were almost all here, and Professor Scamander clapped his hands to calm everyone down, "Children, I took you to observe the salamanders in the last class, and I left you a homework for previewing the fire ash snake. …I’m sure many of you have guessed that the magical animal we’re going to learn about today is the Ash Snake. Lessons about the Ash Snake are very dangerous, so I hope you can keep your spirits up during the class.”

"Today's Protection of Magical Creatures class also has a special guest, let us welcome Professor Snape!"
