Chapter 28 Monster in the Black Lake

"So we are following the footsteps of those great predecessors?"

"Wow, my God, that's so cool!"

The excited little wizards chattered non-stop, breaking the fear brought by the darkness.

Hermione raised her head proudly and winked at Chu Yang, showing off herself in a low-key manner.

In order to make her behave, Chu Yang was about to praise her, but unexpectedly, an inappropriate voice suddenly sounded.

"Look! That little Muggle from a Muggle family is popularizing the history of Hogwarts with real wizards?!"

"What a joke!"

A small boat floated over from the side, with three boys sitting on it. The boys on the left and right were tall and much stronger than Neville.

A blond boy sat between the two of them. He looked pretty good, but his eyes were sinister and he looked like he was coming with bad intentions.

The blond boy said in a low voice: "You mudbloods who come from lowly Muggle families are not worthy of talking about the four great wizards, especially the great Salazar Slytherin."

"None of your business!" Hermione was so angry that she trembled all over. After entering the wizarding world, the thing she hated most was that people said her parents were Muggles.

"How could you say such a vicious word?"

The timid Neville was uncharacteristically angry and accused the blond boy.

"What does mudblood mean?" Hermione was stunned for a moment, and instinctively felt that this was a bad word.

Neville hesitated for a moment and whispered a few words in Hermione's ear, and then Hermione's face suddenly changed and her eyes turned red.

Chu Yang narrowed his eyes and stared coldly at the blond boy. There was obviously only one person among the freshmen who could say such vicious words, Draco Malfoy!

Ordinary little wizards may not know the information of the freshmen at Hogwarts at all, but Draco Malfoy is different.

His family is a very prestigious family in the history of Hogwarts, and his father, Lucius Malfoy, is one of the directors of Hogwarts. It is a common practice of the Malfoy family to get the list of freshmen in advance and try to make friends with the famous wizard families on the list.

When Lucius Malfoy saw that there were two freshmen from Muggle families on the list, he got very angry in front of Draco Malfoy.

Everyone in the Malfoy family graduated from Slytherin College of Hogwarts, and they highly praised the bloodline theory of Salazar Slytherin, the founder of the college.

They all believed that only pure-blooded wizards were qualified to learn and use magic.

Chu Yang found this very funny.

According to their thinking, the first wizard in the world who discovered and used magic was not qualified to use magic at all.

Because his parents were both Muggles...

Without the first batch of Muggle-born wizards to open up the road of magic and communicate and combine with each other, where did the wizard family come from?

This is completely different from the question of which came first, the chicken or the egg.

Muggle-born wizards and pure-blood families, the former must have come first.

Malfoy, who was strongly countered by Hermione, could not hold back his anger and began to curse the other party with some vicious words.

"Is this the etiquette of pure-blood wizards? Insulting others with unbearable words when they disagree?" Chu Yang sneered: "I have only seen similar behavior in hooligans on the streets of London. Your family education is really worrying."

Draco Malfoy's face flushed immediately, and he stood up excitedly and shouted: "I only know etiquette to wizards, you bunch of lowly..."

Before Malfoy finished speaking, the boat shook violently, and he almost fell off the boat. Fortunately, Goyle beside him was quick to pull him up.

At this time, the tangled trees were constantly breaking out from the bottom of the lake.

In the moonlight, the branches that emerged from the lake were entangled with Malfoy's boat little by little, making the boat slower and slower, gradually stopping on the lake, and then shaking violently.

"Damn it! What the hell is going on? Isn't this lake completely safe?" Malfoy grabbed the side of the boat tightly, screaming hysterically, scared out of his wits.

The branches were entangled more and more, and in the blink of an eye, the three people on the boat lost their footing space.

Hagrid, who was at the front, only then noticed the abnormality behind him, and shouted with wide eyes: "My God, what the hell is that?"

The dark lake surface was very hazy under the moonlight.

The branches and vines on the boat looked more like the tentacles of some monsters in Hagrid's eyes, constantly shaking the boat, trying to get Malfoy and the other two off the boat.

"Damn it, what should I do? I didn't bring my wand!" Hagrid was a little panicked. When he went out today, he didn't bring the "broken umbrella"-shaped wand. After all, it was just to pick up students, so it was completely unnecessary.

But now the emergency happened in front of him, but he had no way to do anything.

Just when Hagrid was still regretting that he didn't bring his wand, the three Malfoys on the other side finally couldn't hold on and fell into the water like dumplings.

Gulp~Gulp~Gulp~

Malfoy tried desperately to grab the boat, but his feet were entangled by the branches in the lake and he was dragged down.

Gulp~Gulp~Gulp~

Malfoy was like a tripe in a hot pot, "going up and down" in the water. Whenever he wanted to call for help, the lake water would pour into his mouth.

Compared to Malfoy, his two friends Goyle and Crabbe were in a much better situation. Although they also fell into the lake, they quickly climbed back on the boat.

Strangely, since Malfoy fell down, the boat stopped shaking.

Apart from being soaked, they were not harmed.

Goyle and Crabbe had an idea in their minds at the same time - the "monster" in the lake seemed to be heading for Malfoy alone!

Thinking of this, Goyle and Crabbe looked at Chu Yang and Hermione who had just had a conflict with Malfoy.

As a result, he just met Chu Yang's cold gaze.

The two of them shivered at the same time and quickly lowered their heads, not daring to take another look.

Malfoy, who was afraid that he would be eaten by the "monster" in the lake, immediately cried and cried: "Help me, come and save me, I don't want to be eaten by the monster, no matter who comes to save me."

"Goyle! Crabbe!"

A desperate Malfoy shouted his companion's name.

Goyle subconsciously moved toward Malfoy, bent down against the side of the boat, and prepared to pull him up.

As a result, the boat shook crazily again, and Gore screamed and fell into the lake again!

Crabbe was so frightened that he quickly moved away from Malfoy, pretending that it had nothing to do with him and escaped.

He had been able to determine that the "monster" was targeting Malfoy.

After Goyle climbed into the boat for the second time, he began to imitate Crabbe and pretended not to hear Malfoy's cry for help.

Poor Malfoy is almost full from drinking water...

When Hermione first saw Malfoy falling into the water, she felt so relieved, and all the bad breath in her heart seemed to be vomited out.

But over time, she began to worry that the other party would be in danger. After all, she was just an 11-year-old girl, simple and kind.

Hermione asked anxiously: "Why didn't his companions save him? The two of them are so strong, any one of them can pull him onto the boat."

Chu Yang glanced at her in surprise, "He just scolded him so unpleasantly, and you're still worried about him? Aren't you angry just now?"

"Of course I'm angry!" Hermione said matter-of-factly: "But I don't want to resent a dead person. Only if he is alive can I find an opportunity to take revenge on him!"

Chu Yang wiped the cold sweat from his head. The old saying is absolutely true. The more beautiful a girl is, the more she will hold a grudge and should not be provoked easily.
