The trees in the Forbidden Forest grow quite sparsely. The trees at its edges are usually only as thick as the mouth of a bowl. The ground is bare, with little grass, and even the leaves of the trees have a layer of black. There is a faint
The mist floated on the ground, and it was generally impossible to see beyond a very far distance. On the way around the edge of the Forbidden Forest in search of the Silent Bird, Fang Senyan saw a huge and strange tree through the gap in the mist.
The roots took up at least a square mile of land, and their massive roots criss-crossed the ground like the veins of a terminal cancer patient.
Just seeing this tree, Fang Senyan felt a huge fear in his heart. It was obvious that his senses were giving a strong warning. Fang Senyan immediately turned around and ran away without hesitation. This was not the time to show off as a hero. According to him
According to the information collected in advance, there are quite a lot of dangers hidden inside: werewolves, unicorns, centaurs, Aragog the Acromantula, the Whomping Willow... Of course, the biggest danger is that they are hunting inside at this time.
Voldemort whose blood the unicorn tried to suck!
Finally, Sheyan found what he wanted on a collapsed dead tree:
Four grubs.
This is the larvae of the emerald green scarab beetle. This fat white worm has always been regarded as a high-quality and rare food by birds, just like humans love caviar. After all, grubs usually live inside rotten wood. For woodpeckers
It may be dismissive of this thing, but since the diet of the Silent Birds includes insects, Fang Senyan believes that they will be very interested in the four gifts he prepared. There is a popular saying that people die for wealth and birds die for food.
After thousands of years, there must be a reason for it.
The next thing is to find a big tree that is not tall but has luxuriant branches and leaves, preferably with an umbrella-shaped crown. This kind of tree is the favorite tree for the soundless bird to inhabit. Fang Senyan’s plan is to rub out the bark of a tree.
A piece of rope, and a simple lasso is arranged near the grub bait. When the bird pecks and flicks the grub, the lasso will strangle it. Even though the lasso is quite rough and easy to break free, Sheyan's movement speed at this time
It is already nearly three times that of an ordinary person, so as long as we can delay it for a few seconds, we will be very confident in completing today's task.
Time passed quickly, and it was not until noon that Fang Senyan found a tree that met the requirements. He first carefully observed whether there was any danger around him, and then approached the tree with confidence and boldness. However, just as he was about to climb the tree
Suddenly, the originally peaceful atmosphere was directly broken. Several black shadows rushed towards Fang Senyan's head. When they exerted their force, the extremely sharp claws scratched the bark of the tree and made a "chacha" sound.
, sawdust was flying! Even if Fang Senyan suddenly leaned back, blood was splattered on his face. It looked like his eyes had been severely injured!
The black shadow retained its momentum after the blow and plunged into the ground. The wet ground immediately flew up with dirt. In the next second, the black shadow flew up and pounced again on Fang Senyan, who had his eyes closed and his face was covered with blood. But Fang Senyan
But he didn't panic. He suddenly grabbed it with his left hand and pinched the black shadow tightly in his hand. The black shadow immediately let out a series of unpleasant screams. It sounded like a cicada being pinched in his hand.
At this moment, Sheyan slowly opened his eyes. A five-centimeter-long scar was dug out from the corner of his left eye, and blood was flowing out. If you didn't look carefully, it really looked like his left eye had been severely injured.
.
The black figure pinched by Sheyan was about the size of a palm. The skin all over its body was covered in protective color and looked like it was made of bark and twigs. It had two small brown eyes, a flat mouth, and a mouth.
The teeth inside are slightly blue, like the color of twigs, but its extremely sharp claws can be retracted at will like a cat's, and are still waving in vain in the air. It looks quite funny, but look at Fang Senyan
The injury on the corner of the eye also shows that it is definitely not as harmless as it seems on the surface.
"What the hell is this?" Sheyan was stunned.
But soon the nightmare mark came with a reminder:
"You captured a creature unique to this world: the Bowtruckle."
"The corresponding milestone is activated."
"Biologists: Eleven unique small creatures in the Harry Potter world have been discovered in their places of origin. So far discovered: Bowtruckle"
"Caring Person: You pleased 50 different Bowtruckles." (You can no longer complete the Cruel Person milestone after completing this milestone)
"Cruel Man: You killed 200 Bowtruckles." (You cannot complete the Caring Man Milestone after completing this milestone.)
"Honorary Member of the British Museum: You submit a Bowtruckle to the British Museum in London. (Warning: Your action will result in subsequent penalties from the Ministry of Magic)
"Enthusiast: Complete the ultimate missions of the four shop owners in London's magical item shops respectively. Gringotts Manager: Infinit. Mr. Franc's ultimate mission: He asks you to find a gallstone from the Bowtruckle. Normally,
, only the Bowtruckle leader has a small chance of growing gallstones. (This quest is not activated)"
Seeing the name Bowtruckle, Fang Senyan also recalled some information he had collected before:
The Bowtruckle is a tree-guarding animal, mainly found in certain forests in the west of England, southern Germany and Scanvia. It has two small brown eyes, because its body is too small (up to eight
inches), and from the outside, it is made of bark and twigs, so it is extremely difficult to see.
The Bowtruckle is a peaceful, extremely shy creature that feeds on insects, but if the tree it lives in is threatened, it will leap down and pounce on loggers or trees trying to destroy its home.
The tinkerer, gouging out their eyes with its long, sharp fingers. If a wizard offered the trubble to the Bowtruckle, it would be soothed for a long time so that he or she could remove wood from the tree.
Make a magic wand.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered the few words Hagrid muttered at the beginning, and suddenly understood that Hagrid was not doubting the contractor's words at first, but thought that the unlucky Stan had been protected while climbing a tree.
The Bowtruckle attacked him, so he lost his footing and fell. Hagrid was wondering why there was a Bowtruckle on that tree, not the injuries on Stone's body.
Looking at a series of milestones related to the Bowtruckle, Sheyan hesitated. It was obvious that what he was capable of doing now was nothing more than a "caring person" and a "cruel person". And it seemed like a "cruel person"
It is easier and faster to complete, but the huge number of 200 is enough to be overwhelming. (Friends who have played online games will know how uncomfortable it is to do a task of personally killing 200 monsters).
In comparison, the number of 50 required by the "caring people" seems very close to the people. And it seems that the cost of pleasing them is not high, just catch some local turtles to feed them. However, on Fangsenyan
Where can I find a country turtle? I searched everywhere but couldn't find any of them. In desperation, I had no choice but to let go of the Bowtruckle in my hand. Fortunately, this guy learned the hard way and ran away immediately. Not only that.
, together with the seven or eight bowtruckles perched on the trees, also escaped together, so Fang Sheyan's business of capturing the Silent Birds was not delayed.
After Sheyan set up the trap, he only waited for less than half an hour before a soundless bird flew over. This bird looked quite plump, and it made people look forward to seeing it stripped of its fur.
Add salt, spices, five-spice powder and cumin and bake until oily and sizzling. This soundless bird seems to be quite clever. It hovered for a while and then landed carefully, as if it knew that there was a huge danger waiting for it below.
After waiting for a long time, the bird swooped down with a look of death and headed straight for the bait prepared by Sheyan. The lasso worked very sharply, but was immediately broken by the fat bird, which was completely opposite.
Senyan's self-twisting noose felt nothing. After watching it for a long time, Sheyan suddenly realized that it was not that the bird was smart enough to see his trap, but that it had eaten the protective lasso on the tree many times before.
The Bowtruckle suffers, so he appears cautious...
After a while, several more soundless birds flew over one after another. It seemed that they would stop and not want to leave. Maybe they also have a preference for this type of trees. Fang Senyan tentatively said
They didn't fly even when they were near, and they did the same even when they got to the bottom of the tree. It wasn't until Fang Senyan was about to climb up the tree that the birds started flying crookedly. As soon as Fang Senyan left, they immediately flew back without any delay.
Seeing this situation, Sheyan also had an idea in his mind. He returned to the fallen and rotten wood, dug out seven or eight grubs. Then he placed one under the tree and stepped back seven or eight meters.
Obviously, these fat birds immediately swooped down like bombers and ate up all the insects. When they returned to the tree, they seemed to be shaking their heads with unfinished content, as if they were listening to slow music with headphones.
Fang Senyan put down another one, and this time he only stepped back five or six meters, and then expressed a very firm and harmless attitude, and would never leave.
The birds hesitated, but the Silenced Bird, which was the first to come here, rushed up without hesitation, took the insect away in one bite and enjoyed it slowly. The birds looked at each other in shock, anger, and I believe their hearts were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
.
Fang Senyan continued to release insects and backed away.
When he only had the last two worms, Sheyan dropped them directly at his feet. The birds also began to hesitate and get entangled, but the foolish and bold one came straight forward, and the other birds
Now that he saw the leader, he rushed forward. Fang Sheyan sighed, shrank his arms, and his unbuttoned shirt had already slipped down. He threw himself forward and swept away all the soundless birds in front of him.
It was all covered under the top and taken off in one fell swoop.
