Chapter 352

"You should not enter the forbidden forest. If you were not escorted by centaurs, you would probably die in it." Dumbledore listened to Zhao Mai's "processed and weakened" adventure story, with a worried look on his face, and gently shook his head: "it's too dangerous there. Even experienced and specially trained witches can't go deep alone."

Nature is my ally - Zhao Mai would like to say so. But he didn't have to defend himself in front of Dumbledore like a child. Instead, he took out the petrified ELF: "Professor, do you know whose elf this is?"

Dumbledore held his glasses, examined them carefully, and said, "it's strange why there are elves at Hogwarts? What did he do to petrify him? "

"I found him and caught him. He confessed to attacking Ms. ellebella, and then petrified himself. I'm not going to petrify that deep mantra. " Zhao Mai poked the stone statue of the ELF: "he refused to say who was the instigator, which is very loyal indeed. But every house spirit has a fixed owner, which can always be found out. "

"Yes, you're right. You'll find out." Dumbledore nodded: "thank you very much for all this, but I still have to say, it's too dangerous. We will immediately block the hidden passageways on the stairs, and we will check the back of all murals as soon as possible to eliminate such hidden dangers. "

"What about his master?"

"Ms. ellebella has just woken up. She used the last bottle of decontamination ointment in the hospital." Dumbledore pointed to the petrified elf and said, "if the school wants to remove his petrification, it will have to wait for a while. But we're sure to find out who his owner is. As for you, I suggest you not say that you have been to the forbidden forest. If you are punished for this, it will affect your later study and examination. In this case, it's wise for you to come to me directly. Now, go back to your dorm. "

Zhao Mai nodded and turned away.

The door of the office closed, Dumbledore looked at the petrified elf, frowning deeply: "bigby, why are you here? What kind of instructions did grindevo give you? " He got up, pushed aside the astrograph that had stopped him, and came to the cabinet where the medicine was stored. "Decontamination, decontamination Well, there is still one bottle here. "

Dumbledore dipped his magic wand in the ointment and daubed it on the stone statue: "the stone turns into flesh and blood, quickly restore!" A flash of light enveloped the goblin and freed him from the petrification.

As soon as bigby regained his ability to move, he immediately began to wave his arms. The power of magic gathered on him, and he was ready to run away for the first time. "Stop, bigby, I command you!" Dumbledore stood opposite the elf and said in a low voice, "you know who I am, don't you?"

"Mr. Albus Dumbledore, the master's good friend, is also bigby's half master." The elf bowed quickly, then rubbed his hands and said, "half master, what can I do for you?"

"What kind of mission are you on at Hogwarts?"

"The master won't let me tell anyone..."

"Say, I command you, and I am your master."

"Only half of it..." The elf squatted on the ground, rubbed his hands hard, his eyes dodged and looked embarrassed.

Dumbledore struck the elf on the head with his wand and said solemnly, "remember, grindevo said, let you obey me as if you obey him."

"Oh, yes, the master did say so!" The elf finally extricated himself from the contradiction, and his eyes were full of joy: "the master sent me to interfere with the study of the cram students, so that their grades dropped or they could not pass the exam."

"Do you want to kill students?"

"Oh, of course not. The master will not give such an order." "All the injuries can be healed," said the elf. "I've just been ordered to scare them."

"Why Dumbledore couldn't understand. There may be something wrong with the search for the Sorcerer's curse, which was the first thing greendevo reminded him by letter. After that, the two exchanged ideas of repairing and improving the mantra through letters. Although the witches all owe Dumbledore's search for the Sorcerer's curse to him, he knows that grindevo has also made a great contribution to it.

The arrival of the cram students is to seek the credit of the wizard's curse. From this point of view, greendevo has no reason to target the cram students. What's more, his orders to the elves are just "interfering with their studies and affecting their grades", which is even more strange. How about a few cram students jump to several levels?

"What else does your master want you to do?" Dumbledore asked.

"The master also said to me, let me get something for you after I finish the task. The task is not finished, so I can't carry it out yet. " Bigby straightened up with an expectant smile on his face and said, "the host said that when I finish these two things, I will praise you."

"Where to get things?"

"There's a place called Cape card, where there's a nameless tombstone, and the contents are what I'm going to take. Bigby doesn't know where it is, but the host says I need to figure it out and find it, otherwise it's not worth praising. ""Cape Kande, is there a place like this?" Dumbledore tapped on the table with his fingers, trying to find out from his knowledge. He finally had to admit that grindevo was a better wizard and more knowledgeable. Dumbledore didn't have the slightest impression of Cape Cod.

"No matter what your previous orders were, you can't disturb my students now!" Dumbledore ordered in a stern tone: "go back and tell your master that Hogwarts is a place to learn knowledge. No matter what plans he has, he must stay away from here, or I will completely break up with him!"

"No, you can't order me to disobey my master's orders. It's not good." Bigby said with a sad face, "I want to be praised by my master. That's one of the highest honors of house elves." Tears came out of his big eyes and fell to the ground drop by drop.

"Bigby, I am also your master, so you must obey my orders." Dumbledore's eyes softened, and he said softly, "besides, I have a more severe and difficult task for you. As long as you have completed it, I will praise you."

Bigby dried his tears, swallowed hard, rubbed his fingers and asked, "what's the task?"

"No matter who asks you for instructions or who is your master, you can identify the person who asks you as your master, and he also instructs you. Can you do that?"

The elf looked at Dumbledore blankly, turned his eyes several times, and then shook his head: "no, I can't, I only have one or two masters, I don't have so many masters I let the host down. I won't be praised any more. "

"It's a test, a test of protecting your master and his secrets." Dumbledore said: "you have to do that, or grindevo's life outside will be more difficult."

Bigby thumped his head hard, swayed left and right, and finally nodded: "yes, I will try. I'm deceiving the bad guys and protecting the master! I can do it

"Good, and remember, try to run away, get out of Hogwarts, get far away, and then go to grindevo and pass on my message. Do you remember? " Seeing bigby nodding, Dumbledore said, "now there's one last thing left. Hide your body!"

The wand flashed and bigby disappeared. Dumbledore said to the air, "go away and don't come back."
