If a branch is planted in the soil, it is indeed possible for it to take root and sprout, but if a magic wand is buried in the ground, it can turn into a tree and even have miraculous healing effects... That is too unscientific.
After listening to Tina's words, Rolf couldn't help but wonder whether the origin of the snake tree was exaggerated by later generations, deliberately making up stories and marketing to increase the popularity of Ilvermorny.
All major magic schools have done this, including Hogwarts!
When it comes to the location of Hogwarts, there has been a rumor that Ravenclaw dreamed of a warthog and took her to a cliff by a lake.
After waking up from the dream, Ravenclaw followed the route in the dream and found the lake and cliff... This story has been widely circulated and has added a lot of legend to Hogwarts.
When Rolf returned to a thousand years ago, he specifically asked Hufflepuff about this matter. After hearing this, she said it was pure nonsense and laughed at him for a long time.
But during the Herbology class the next day, Hufflepuff immediately told the students the story intact.
Finally, he said with a serious face that Hogwarts is a heaven-given place.
Since then, Rove has been indifferent to such rumors.
But then again, in the world of magic, no matter who talks to you about science, unscientific is the biggest science!
In short, the snakewood tree does have some tricks up its sleeve, and Rolf plans to stop by and take a look when he returns to Ilvermorny one day.
Rolf and Newt chatted for a while, and dinner was finally ready. After washing his hands, the boy walked towards the dining room.
A dazzling Irish metal chandelier hangs from the ceiling of the dining room, and beneath the chandelier is a white dining table.
Shirley was standing at the dining table, with silverware placed on it. She was also wearing an apron embroidered with Xiu Xiu... She looked like a virtuous little daughter-in-law.
Seeing that Luofu kept staring at her and laughing, Shirley said inexplicably: "Why are you laughing?"
"I thought of something funny." Luo Fe grinned.
"whats the matter?"
"I won't tell you!"
The girl with the ponytail looked at Luo Fu suspiciously, then looked down at herself. She thought it was the ill-fitting apron that made the boy laugh, so she explained:
"This is grandma's apron. It's a little too big for me."
Luofu walked to Shirley and said softly: "I will take you to buy a smaller apron tomorrow."
Shirley nodded, saw him helping her arrange the dishes, and asked crisply: "Have you washed your hands?"
Now she looked more like a young daughter-in-law. Luo Fu held back his laughter, stretched out a finger, lightly touched the side of her cheek and said:
"Wash it...look there's still water."
The young man said and used the back of his hand to wipe off the water on Shirley's face.
Such an intimate gesture caused the girl to hurriedly look towards the kitchen. Seeing that Newt and Tina had their backs turned, not paying attention to the dining room, she breathed a sigh of relief and lowered her voice:
"Be careful of being seen!"
"What are you afraid of?" Luofu suddenly pecked Shirley's cheek and said with a smile: There are no nuns here, so it doesn't matter if they are seen. Grandpa and grandma won't say anything."
The girl with the ponytail was about to speak when three civet cries sounded at the right time.
Rolf and Shirley turned their heads and saw Moller, Hobby and Millie sitting on the sofa not far away, as if watching a play, staring at them curiously.
Moller also deliberately imitated Rove, bringing his nose to Hobi's mouth and gently touching it.
Shirley blushed and ran towards the kitchen in despair.
Luofu walked towards the three-headed cat nives somewhat speechlessly, nodded their heads, and glared:
"Don't show up when Shirley and I are alone in the future, you know? Otherwise I won't give you snacks, especially you, Moller!"
Moller feels a little aggrieved. Isn't he just imitating your human actions?
We cats and dogs like to sniff each other’s butts, and you are not allowed to imitate it!
Luofu taught the three-headed cat and raccoon a lesson, and a sumptuous dinner was served on the table:
Beef and barley soup, a plate of roasted quail and a nearly three-foot-long pike grilled with vegetables and mushrooms, a plate of chicken in white sauce, a plate of roast goose, and a rich plate of hot bread and butter.
Luo Fu, who hadn't eaten good food for a long time, suddenly felt an appetite when he saw the delicious food.
The four of them also drank some sweet cider, which had a very low alcohol content, so that even a guy like Shirley, who was not good at drinking, would not get drunk after drinking it.
During the meal, everyone also talked about the big footprints in the Forest of Dean.
"Those footprints were indeed left by giants." Newt took a sip of the fruit wine and said, "But the strange thing is, judging from the traces of the footprints, they were all made by bones and palms, and were not really giant footprints."
"Bone palm?" Luofu asked doubtfully: "The giant who can never die has been resurrected again, right?"
"Could it be that someone is digging up the skeletons of giants?" Shirley guessed: "Their skeletons can be used to brew potions, and they are also very valuable, right?"
"It's possible." Newt nodded: "But it's also possible that someone is digging the Giant City."
"Giant City?" Rolf said in surprise.
"Well, when I was a child, I heard my grandfather say that there is a lost city of giants hidden near the Upper Barnton Giant Tribe." Newt said slowly:
"This story has been in our family for a long time."
"Back then, when the giant hunter Gifford Alton came to the Fertile Plains, he actually came to the Giant City."
"With the IQ of a giant, can a city be built?" Luo Fu was very doubtful.
"Of course." Newt said softly: "Giants, like wizards, centaurs, and goblins, all had glorious civilizations and high architectural standards in the past.
During the Neo-Babylonian period, giants helped King Nebuchadnezzar II build a tower about a kilometer high.
The giant stone statues on Easter Island, the Nazca Lines on the land of South America, those giant paintings... are all masterpieces of giants."
Newt sighed: "But as the giants continue to kill each other, those glorious civilizations have long been cut off.
The Giant City also slowly fell into disuse and completely disappeared into the long river of history, becoming a legend that is difficult to tell whether it is true or false."
Newt slowly told the story about the Giant City that he heard from his grandfather, which also added a lot of flavor to the dinner.
After dinner, Newt and Tina wanted to go for a walk together, and they asked Rolf and Shirley if they wanted to go together.
The two of them unanimously refused. After all, they really couldn't eat this bowl of old dog food that had been cooked for decades.
Considering that the three cats might disturb him and Shirley, Rolf suggested that Tina should take them with her on the grounds of obesity.
Moller didn't want to go at first. After all, he was so fat that it would be difficult to even go up to the second floor. It would be troublesome to go for a walk.
But this was her precious grandson's suggestion, and Tina readily accepted it, and Moller had no choice but to refuse.
So, after the old man left, only the boy and the girl were left alone in the whole old house.
Luofu held the ponytail girl's hand and said with a smile:
"Let's go, Shirley, go to my room...I'll show you the big baby."
