Chapter 337 Christmas Gifts and a Visit to Hagrid's Hut
Christmas morning was cold, and everything was white. Snowflakes fell gently, as light as feathers, covering the earth with a layer of white. The cold wind blew, bringing a hint of chill, making people shrink their necks. The mountains, trees, and lakes in the distance were all immersed in silver, looking so beautiful and mysterious. People walked on the snow, and the crunching sound under their feet seemed to tell the story of winter.
Yang Tian and his friends gathered together early and exchanged Christmas gifts with each other. Everyone was very happy to have a group of friends to accompany them on Christmas. Everyone's face was filled with joyful smiles.
Unlike last year, this year no one used notes to fool Yang Tian. Although the tense atmosphere of Hogwarts disrupted everyone's plans, the friends still treated their true friends with extra care.
Daphne and Pansy were very direct, each mailing a family out-of-print magic book as a gift. These books are undoubtedly the crystallization of ancient wisdom and mysterious power, and are undoubtedly a precious gift for Yang Tian who likes to explore the magic world.
What Draco mailed was a precious alchemical material. Yang Tian had been studying alchemy with Nicolas Flamel and his wife for so long, so this gift naturally touched his heart.
What Hermione mailed was a set of wooden command arrows that she found in the Muggle market. This set of command arrows has five pieces, divided into five colors: yellow, brown, green, red, and blue; each command arrow has a different ancient Chinese character carved on its head. They are about the length of a palm and have an ancient wooden texture. The surface of the command arrows is engraved with exquisite patterns, as if telling the story of the years. However, for some unknown reason, these command arrows are more or less stained. Those stains seem to be traces left by time, or they may be caused by the erosion of some unknown substance. Despite this, these command arrows still exude a unique charm...
In addition, there is the Lorisso flower that Neville has recently cultivated. The flower blooms like a bright pearl. Whether it is the blue curled transparent petals or the gray rhizomes that are completely different from ordinary plants, people can't help but fall in love with it. Of course, the reason why this flower is important is not just because of its beautiful appearance; it is also because it is a rare high-level potion material. This material is divided into two types: sunlight picking and moonlight picking. The potion made from sunlight picking can instantly heal all external injuries, while the potion picked by moonlight will make people's injuries worse or even cause instant death; more importantly, these two materials with completely opposite medicinal effects cannot be distinguished from each other in terms of composition, appearance, or smell. How can such a strange phenomenon not fascinate people?
In addition to these precious gifts, Penelope, Zhang Qiu, Hannah, the Weasley brothers, Fleur, Cook and other friends also presented their carefully prepared gifts. Some were a homemade alchemical item, some were a treasure map of unknown age, and some were magic photo albums of the friends' daily interactions made from their own memories... Each gift contained sincere blessings and friendship, which made Yang Tian feel the warmth and care.
Of course, Yang Tian did the same. When he returned to his family for vacation, he prepared gifts for everyone according to their preferences. The precious gifts that met his own aesthetic taste also made all the friends smile...
At noon on Christmas Day, Yang Tian brought all the remaining members of the school group to visit Hagrid. The big guy was naturally very happy about this.
Before they got close, Hagrid greeted everyone with his loud voice: "Hi, everyone, welcome to my cabin. Today is the most lively day at home, hahaha." His laughter was hearty and cheerful.
"Hi, Hagrid, long time no see, Merry Christmas." Everyone greeted happily.
"Merry Christmas!" Hagrid responded with equal enthusiasm.
But at this moment, a swift and agile black shadow rushed in front of Yang Tian like lightning, and the next moment, it suddenly lifted him up.
Yang Tian was startled at first, but when he saw the scene clearly, he couldn't help laughing. It turned out that the black shadow was Simon the unicorn that Yang Tian gave to Hagrid last Christmas.
He gently stroked Simon's leopard head, and Simon looked at Yang Tian with his bright eyes, as if expressing his closeness to Yang Tian.
When everyone saw this scene, they all exclaimed and laughed.
"Wow, Yang Tian, Simon has grown so majestic!" Padma exclaimed.
"Yes, and it's so spiritual." Penelope also echoed.
Indeed, compared to last year, Simon's body has reached the standard of an adult leopard, with golden fur as smooth and shiny as silk, full of strength. Its sturdy limbs and sharp claws are also chilling, but the little guy is still full of attachment to Hagrid and Yang Tian.
Yang Tian was not stingy and took out a roasted antelope from the white jade ring. This was Simon's favorite food. In the past year, Yang Tian had used this thing to bribe little Simon.
What made Yang Tian laugh and cry was that when he took out the roasted antelope, all his friends, including Hagrid, swallowed their saliva at the same time. After all, they had tasted this thing before, and it tasted really good!
"Okay, okay, let's have a barbecue here together later. I have prepared a lot anyway, and there are all kinds of delicious food." Yang Tian said helplessly.
"Wow! That's great! Yang Tian, I'm rooting for you!" Upon hearing this, the friends applauded and cheered.
Yang Tian ignored the crowd's booing and turned to the big guy and said, "Hagrid, this is your Christmas present." Then he placed a big box in front of Hagrid. Hagrid excitedly opened the box and found a brand new down jacket inside. Hagrid happily put on the new clothes and smiled from ear to ear.
Hagrid was very excited and started to open the package immediately. His movements were so big and fast that all his friends were stunned.
When Hagrid saw that there was a scorpion egg the size of a washbasin inside the package, he could no longer suppress his excitement and blurted out, "What is this?"
"Haha!" Yang Tian naturally felt Hagrid's joy, and he immediately explained: "This is the Ten Thousand Poison Scorpion, the continuation of the ancient bloodline. I know your preferences, don't worry, it will perfectly meet your requirements. However, it's still the old rules, I must participate in the taming process, I'm afraid something will go wrong if you do it alone."
Hearing this, Hagrid's smile became even brighter, and he nodded repeatedly, "No problem, no problem!"
