Chapter 318 Ice Bubble Lake

"Why don't you wake me up!" Ron sat on the hospital bed in the school hospital with an angry look on his face, "Let me take revenge on those monkeys!"

Harry laughed dryly, "Don't be like that, Ron, they are just a little naughty, and chasing us is just playing with us, besides."

He took out a cloth bag and said, "They gave us gold coins."

"Gold coins?!" When Ron heard this word, he sat up from the hospital bed with a start. His waist was no longer sore, his legs were no longer painful, and his whole body was full of energy.

It has the aura of "sitting up in shock while dying of illness".

Harry was stunned by his actions. Ron snatched the bag from his hand and pulled it casually. The bag was opened by him. Ron looked inside expectantly.

The surprise on his face disappeared immediately.

"What is this!" Ron shouted, "Only one gold coin!"

Harry said happily, "It's a commemorative coin! We can keep it! This is proof of our adventure!"

Ron's eyes widened, "Merlin! Man, are you crazy? We can get gold coins for one room, but now we only have one!"

As he spoke, he threw the bag in his hand to the foot of the bed, lay back on the bed, and complained, "Really!"

Harry sat next to him and explained, "Ron, those gold coins don't belong to us at all. They belong to those monkeys. We can't take them away. Only those three monkeys have the right to control them."

Ron glared at him angrily, "So what, they live in that spiritual world and it's impossible to come out, right? And, do you think a monkey will know how to spend money? Do we just let those gold coins stay there?" Is there decay in the room?”

Harry said with a smile, "Don't worry, they are very smart and will spend their own money."

"...Huh?" Ron's eyes widened, not understanding what Harry was talking about.

Deep in the Forbidden Forest.

"Robert, are we going too deep..." Hermione asked cautiously, "It's too quiet here..."

"Don't worry, as long as you are careful and don't get close to those dangerous creatures, there will be no problem." Robert pulled her and led the way.

I don’t know what the reason is, but the three black monkeys can actually shrink themselves. Originally they were as tall as adults, but now they are probably the size of ordinary monkeys.

It was probably the first time they lived outside the spirit world. The monkeys were very curious about the outside world. They did not come down from the trees along the way, looking around with their small eyes, as if they wanted to see enough of the world at once!

"Okay, we'll be here after climbing over this hillside." Robert pointed forward and turned to look at Hermione, "Would you like to take a rest?"

The Forbidden Forest under the heavy snow cover was all white, and the sound was isolated here. Although the two of them were wearing thin clothes, they did not feel the cold due to the presence of the magic spell.

Hearing Robert's question, Hermione shook her head, "No, I'm not tired yet. Send them to the place early, and we can still rush back for breakfast."

It was already late at night, and the two of them were walking all the way. If they didn't speed up their pace, they might really miss breakfast.

After climbing over the not-high hillside, what appeared in front of Hermione was a blue lake.

In winter, the temperature across Scotland is very low, and the lake is inevitably covered with thick ice. However, what shocked Hermione was the frozen white bubbles under the lake, layer by layer, some There are even white pillars formed.

"...Ice bubble lake?" Hermione shouted in disbelief, "But...this kind of thing doesn't only happen in artificial lakes..."

As the name suggests, Ice Bubble Lake is a frozen lake full of frozen bubbles. The cause is inseparable from the aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake. Simply put, the aquatic plants produce methane gas during the process of being decomposed by bacteria. As the temperature drops sharply in winter and the lake surface freezes, these frozen bubbles are accumulated under the lake surface. .

Generally speaking, artificial lakes are more prone to this phenomenon.

"There are probably more animals around here." Robert explained casually, "The place I recommend is right here. Hey, where did the monkeys go?"

Hermione turned around subconsciously and saw that the monkey that had been following the two of them was indeed gone.

The two of them immediately looked around. Robert's sharp eyes soon discovered that the three monkeys had sneaked to the lake without the two of them paying attention, and were playing happily on the ice.

It turned out to be a monkey, very good at playing.

Hermione's eyes shone, and she looked at Robert, "Have we completed our mission?"

Robert nodded. The principal only asked them to take the monkey into the Forbidden Forest, but did not specify where.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go down and play too!" Hermione happily rushed down the hillside and ran towards the ice bubble lake.

Robert opened his mouth and wanted to call Hermione to stop, but then he thought, since everyone has come out, let's play for a while.

Although it is night, there is snow everywhere here, and with the help of the luminous spell, it does not look dark.

The two did take many photos on the frozen lake.

"What did you say? Those three monkeys ran out?" Ron raised his voice. Harry had to comfort him and looked at the door of the school hospital from time to time. God, if Madam Pomfrey found out that the two of them were not sleeping , whoever is still shouting here will definitely kill someone!

Harry was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and wanted to push Ron back to the bed. "Ron, please keep your voice down. How about I talk to you about this when you wake up?"

How could Ron know what Harry was thinking, so he pushed his hands away and shouted angrily, "How could I possibly sleep! Those are three dangerous and crazy monkeys! It must be the dark wizard. They created it! I will definitely tell Dad about this and let the Ministry of Magic handle it!"

Seeing that the dissuasion was ineffective, Harry became angry and said, "Ron, what nonsense are you talking about! Those three monkeys are now members of Hogwarts. Dumbledore has approved them to live in the Forbidden Forest. They will also Half of the treasure will be given to the school to improve the ecosystem of the Forbidden Forest."

"Huh?" Ron looked confused, "What the hell is the ecosystem of the Forbidden Forest? What does that kind of thing have to do with us! I'm talking about gold coins! Gold coins! We could have gotten so many gold coins, but now because of those The monkey wants to get into Hogwarts, so we don't have any part in it?"

Harry looked confused, "Those treasures have nothing to do with us in the first place!"

Ron's face turned red, "Are you a fool? In travel notes, the protagonists can get treasures after taking risks. This is common sense!"

Harry became even more confused, "But the reason they were able to get the treasures is because those treasures are ownerless, and the treasures we found have owners, right?"

Seeing Harry's confused look, Ron was completely desperate.

The Weasley family has nothing to do with getting rich overnight, right?
