Chapter 211 Buckbeak (Modified)

"How beautiful, isn't it?" Different from the tone he used to praise the fairy before, Hagrid obviously really liked this hippogriff and thought it was beautiful from the bottom of his heart!

This was just Hagrid's idea. For the little wizards who came around, seeing such a weird animal for the first time, and then thinking about its record, most of them were still afraid.

It has the body, hind legs and tail of a horse, but the front legs, wings and head of an eagle. Its grim beak was the color of steel, and its large, bright eyes were orange. The eagle claws on its front legs were half a foot long and looked intimidating. Around the neck was a thick leather collar attached by a long chain, which was attached to the fence.

Although it looks majestic, in the huge paddock, it is the only one that has been staying here all the time, which looks very worrying.

Hagrid threw a big fresh fish in front of the fence, and Buckbeak in the fence opened his mouth, caught it accurately, and began to eat happily.

"Originally there were a lot of them here, but after I listened to your suggestion, I sent them all back to the Forbidden Forest. Only Buckbeak refused to go." Hagrid thought no one was paying attention, and secretly wiped them with his big palm. Eye.

"It's really beautiful." Allen admired from the bottom of his heart.

Indeed, once you get over the horror of seeing the half-horse, half-bird monster for the first time, you can start admiring the glistening fur of the hippogriff - and a few Ravenclaws are no longer bothered by the rumors , began to nod in agreement with Allen's words.

"Hagrid, can I take a closer look at it?" Alan begged, feeling like he was beginning to like Buckbeak.

For boys, it's really easy to be attracted to such beasts.

"But, Alan!" Hagrid looked a little embarrassed because Malfoy had just had an accident.

"Hagrid, I will never act recklessly. I know that it is very proud and easily loses its temper. You must not humiliate it. You have to wait for it to act first, and be polite to it." Allen said what he knew .

"You have to trust me, Hagrid. If I can also successfully ride Buckbeak, will it prove that Malfoy's injury is his own fault?" Alan blinked and continued to persuade.

"Well, if it's you, Alan—" Hagrid was obviously persuaded by Alan!

Hagrid said gruffly, "Okay - let's see what you do with Buckbeak."

He beckoned Allen to walk into the paddock with him.

He stepped forward, unchained Buckbeak, took Buckbeak a few steps, and took off his leather collar.

Buckbeak shook his ferocious head and stretched his powerful wings, as if exercising his muscles.

The students standing outside the paddock seemed to hold their breath.

But Alan wasn't afraid at all, and he didn't intend to use the animal understanding ability to communicate with the other party, but used the method taught by Hagrid that ordinary wizards could use.

Allen opened his eyes wide, staring into Buckbeak's eyes without blinking.

"Well done, Alan," Hagrid said softly, "you've caught his eye, don't blink—if you blink too often, the Hippogriff won't believe you... "

Allen soon began to feel dry, but he did not close his eyes. Buckbeak turned his large, pointy head and fixed Alan with one fierce orange eye.

"Yes," said Hagrid, "yes, Ellen...now, bow..."

Allen felt that Buckbeak was looking at him, and he had no ill feeling towards him, let alone any intention of hurting him.

So he obediently did as Hagrid asked. He bent down deeply, bowed to Buckbeak, and it took him a while to straighten up.

Buckbeak flapped his wings a few times and raised his sharp claws.

The little wizards outside the fence couldn't help gasping for air, and some soft-hearted little witches covered their faces, not daring to watch the tragedy that followed.

The little wizards didn't dare to take a breath, for fear of alarming the hippogriff.

Buckbeak looked at Alan for a long time, and just when Hagrid wanted to persuade Alan to give up, it moved. To everyone's astonishment, the hippogriff suddenly bent its scaly front knee in an unmistakable bowing gesture.

"Good job, Ellen!" said Hagrid ecstatically. "There - you can pet him now! Pat it on the mouth and go!"

A sense of accomplishment also surged in Allen's heart. While feeling Buckbeak's mood, he walked slowly towards the Hippogriff and stretched out his hand to it. He patted its beak a few times, and the hippogriff lazily closed its eyes, as if it liked it very much.

All the students cheered, "Alan succeeded!"

"I knew he could do anything!"

"Even Harry from Gryffindor is fine, Alan has no chance of failing!"

"It seems that Malfoy is too self-righteous!"

"I really want to try it!"

Suddenly, Alan rode on Buckbeak's back neatly, which made the young wizards onlookers very envious.

Buckbeak stood up. "Let's go!" Hagrid roared, slapping the hippogriff on the hind leg.

Allen hugged Buckbeak's head, and the twelve-foot-long wings spread out on both sides of Allen, vibrating and flying into the sky. The smooth feathers slid under Alan's fingers, and he didn't dare to grab it hard, trying to avoid hurting Buckbeak. The hippogriff's hind legs heaved up and down with the flapping of its wings, and he felt himself jerking violently up and down.

Buckbeak took Allen to fly around Hogwarts Castle, gliding across the lake, and over the high hills... High in the air, Allen couldn't open his eyes due to the airflow caused by the fast flight. Keep your balance carefully and make sure you don't fall off.

When the Hippogriff finally slowed down, Allen felt much better now, admiring the scenery of the lake and mountains on Buckbeak's back.

Flying around the castle, Buckbeak brought Alan back to the paddock.

He ducked his head, and Alan had to hold on to its feathers to keep from slipping off its nose. With a loud bang, Buckbeak's four unevenly matched feet landed on the ground. Allen stabilized his body and jumped off Buckbeak neatly.

Unable to restrain his love for Buckbeak, Allen patted Buckbeak's sharp beak. And Buckbeak, who flew freely for a circle, also put his head on Allen's shoulder, feeling very happy.

Hagrid's love for Buckbeak is now completely understandable to Alan, stroking Buckbeak's beak, Alan's heart is soft, although compared with flying broomsticks, flying on Buckbeak is really not comfortable, but This exciting feeling made Allen feel endless aftertaste.

Of course, when it comes to talking about monsters, lizards, centaurs, unicorns... Among the many magical creatures that Allen has ridden, Gaia is the most stable and comfortable.
