Chapter 37: Padma's Milk Tea

The bird snake is a kind of magical animal common in the Far East and India. It is a snake-shaped creature with feathers and wings like a kingfisher. But although it is snake-shaped, it also has two feet and can reach 15 feet in length, which is 4 and a half meters. The egg of the bird snake has a sterling silver texture and is also one of the ingredients of the Fuling, so it is very sought after, and their nests are easily looted by hunters, which also causes it to be very aggressive to humans who approach it when protecting the eggs. sex. Bird snakes have a magical magical property, they can expand and contract at will, either large enough to fill all the space, or shrinking according to the available space.

Such magical animals are very rare in the British magic world, and Tom happens to have an egg of a bird and a snake. Although he didn't know how to hatch, this mission gave him a magical animal hatching agent that could help him.

Tom came to the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor, walked back and forth across the tapestry three times, and said silently: I need a place to hide things, and there is an extra door on the wall. Tom opened the door and walked in, following the system's instructions to find the two red bottles.

"How can I use this thing?" Tom was a little curious, he didn't give a manual for the broken system, he just pretended to be dead as soon as he handed in the potion address. He shook his head, pocketed the Fantastic Beasts Hatchery, and left the Room of Requirement.

For the next period of time, Tom didn't do anything anymore, but went to class every day honestly. Of course, he still had to answer the questions. He has also been paying attention to books on Fantastic Beasts, trying to find ways to use hatching agents.

This kind of life continued until Halloween had a little change. The source of change is a cup of milk tea. The source of this cup of milk tea is the first flying lesson in school. After being rescued from the air by Tom, Padma had an idea: Tom is my benefactor, should I repay him? This thought took root in her heart like a weed, and soon reached an uncontrollable level.

When she shared this idea with her sister Parvati Patil, she immediately got her sister's support. And her sister also gave her an idea: why not give Tom a cup of hand-brewed milk tea?

This suggestion immediately conquered Padma. You know, the ancestral home of their sisters is India, where spices and black tea are abundant. The milk tea they have there is a local speciality and must be tasted. Of course, in addition to milk tea, curry and masala are the specialties of their hometown, but these two are not very convenient to give as gifts, so their choice is naturally only milk tea.

"Think about it, is there any gift better than a steaming cup of hand-brewed milk tea?" Parvati's words moved Padma. For the next period of time, she has been contacting relatives and friends in her hometown, asking them for authentic Indian milk tea ingredients. In Padma's eyes, Indian milk tea is the best in the world, and gifts to benefactors must be authentic. She is an old Indian purebred Kshatriya, and she drinks this kind of authentic. The milk teas in other regions are all sitting bare-bottomed in front of the Indian milk tea - hitting the stone with a pebble.

So her relatives in her hometown basically bought black tea in the east market, white sugar in the west market, clay pots in the south market, milk in the north market, and then sent them to the little princess Padma in the family through owls. past. Because all raw materials are imported from India, Padma's repayment progress has been slowed down.

This delay was delayed for a month, and she could not start making milk tea until the family sent the last piece of the puzzle for making milk tea, the holy river water, on the eve of Halloween.

The eve of Halloween is somewhat similar to the Chinese New Year's Eve. It is the day before Halloween, that is, October 31 every year. Halloween in 1991 was a Thursday.

On the eve of Halloween, the smell of roasting pumpkin wafted in the hallway early in the morning. Ravenclaw's little wizards have two classes in the morning: Charms and Defence Against the Dark Arts. Professor Flitwick hadn't handed over the remodeled broom to Tom and the others, but it didn't matter, the first Quidditch match would be in November.

Today, Professor Flitwick announced in magic class that he thinks students can try learning the Levitation Charm. After explaining the principles of magic spells and the elements of spell casting, Professor Flitwick divided the class into groups of two to start training. Tom's partner is Ron, and Harry will work with Hermione. It can be seen that Professor Flitwick deliberately separated the academic tyrants and asked them to take other students.

Professor Flitwick, still standing on his pile of books as usual, said sharply: "Don't forget the hand movements: a wave and a shake, the pronunciation is also very important, the French wizard Baru Feo put the incantation ' The f' turned into an 's' and I found myself lying on the floor with a bison standing in front of me. [Note 1]"

Easier said than done, UU reading Harry did the action over and over again, but a feather was still lying motionless on the table, and Seamus, who was sitting next to him, accidentally set the feather on fire. Fortunately, Tom's timely "clear water like a spring" put out the fire, but the feathers soaked in water are more difficult to float.

Tom's partner, Ron, wasn't much better either. He shouted: "Winga Dim Leviosa!" His arms waved like a windmill. Tom shook his head, "There's something wrong with your sentence, it should be Yuga-Dimlevy/O/Sa, and the hair should be longer. Look- Yuga-Dimlevyosa!" Tom said, With a flick of his wrist, his feather rose from the table and hovered above his head.

Tom's successful spell casting caught Professor Flitwick's attention, "Well done! Everyone, look at Mr. Yodel, he has succeeded!"

Ron nodded and tried as Tom said. Feather seemed to tremble.

Quest reward: randomly select an organ for evolution]

Tom's eyes lit up: Evolution? This is a good thing! Have you finally broken through the level of life? He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the ultimate creature. He thought happily: If his eyes evolve, will he get a function similar to the blood wheel eye? As long as others use the magic spell, can they learn it by themselves?

He looked at Ron with fiery eyes, which made Ron shudder.
