Chapter 127 Ron's First Bucket of Gold
At the critical moment, Ron's wand once again "turned against" its second owner.

From then on, it was called the "rebellious wand" because you didn't know what magic it would cast, let alone where it came from.

Ron learned this little curse from a magic book in his family's collection.

After all, the Weasley family has a long history. Although they are a little poor, they still have something.

This "Slug-Spitting Curse" is really not a common one, and the theory is quite complicated.

But he didn't expect the magic wand to backfire and hit himself.

At this moment, Ron couldn't help but start vomiting slugs!

When it comes to black magic, the master can only lead you to the door, but the judgment is up to you.

Speaking of which, Ron is quite talented in the dark arts. The effect of this spell he casts is twice that of a normal person, and the spell backfires three times stronger than normal!
All of a sudden it turned into a merciless slug-spitting machine!

Ted thought of many ways to deal with Ron's situation, and even went to ask Professor Flitwick for advice.

But this is not an ordinary evil curse, but a curse that has returned.

To be honest, Ron was lucky that he was not roasted into a chicken.

Ted had no choice but to find him a wooden bucket and let him hold it to vomit.

Normal methods no longer work.

The only way is to speed up the magic effect. The number of slugs to be vomited is fixed and cannot be reduced, so you can only choose to vomit faster - it is better to suffer a short pain than a long one!

If you have one every few minutes and keep vomiting for several days, it would be really fatal.

Ted was worried that Ron, who looked as pale as death, would have a psychological burden. After all, Malfoy had already started making up funny stories about Ron and spreading them everywhere, so he had to encourage him:

"Old man Seven lost his horse, how do you know it's not a good thing? The price of a bucket of unprocessed slugs in Diagon Alley is 1 Galleon. The price of processed slugs is as high as 3 Galleons. Look at you, you are just like a blind cat catching a cold chicken!"

Ron looked pale as he looked at Ted: "During the holidays, you promised to find an opportunity to make money with me. You really kept your word! Ugh~
A full three and a half hours...Ron's first pot of gold in his life, 6 Galleons and 12 Sickles.

Come on, we are so close to getting a new wand.

Ron really couldn't imagine what it would be like to use the wand he bought with the money he earned from spitting slugs.

Ron warned everyone very sincerely: Don’t learn from me, hug a wooden barrel, squat there, and let people nag you for the rest of your life!

But when Jinlong put it in his hand and it made a rustling sound, he really forgot about the slippery taste of the slug. He was left with only joy in his heart!
Ron was young, but his daily salary reached 6 Galleons. He didn't care about the hatred of the rich around him.
But this accident is still quite frightening, because you know, spell backfire is no joke.

Very dangerous! Even many famous wizards died from this spell backfire!

The cunning wand in Ron's hand is really unusable.

His friends all urged him to change it, and some even pooled their money to buy him a new one.

But for a twelve-year-old boy, this fact was a bit of a self-esteem shock.

The poorer the family conditions of children, the more sensitive they are to financial issues. Many times, the kind help from others will in turn hurt their fragile self-esteem.

Although Ted and the others are best friends, this sensitivity is exacerbated.

Ted privately advised Ron: "You can't do this. Even if you can stop using the wand, you won't learn anything this whole year."

Ron shrugged and laughed self-deprecatingly. "So, how can I tell my family and ask Mom and Dad to buy me a new wand? Oh, dear Mom, Ron's wand, which only brings trouble, was broken when the car hit the Whomping Willow. Now it's a little out of control. Can you give me a new one?"

His eyes have started to turn red.

From driving a speeding car into the Whomping Willow, to the Howling Letter, and now to this almost broken wand... Although on the surface he is still the heartless Ron, he has been hurt.

When it came to the speeding car incident, Sirius' first reaction was to worry whether Harry was injured. Then he started praising her profusely, saying that she was just like us in our day.

Although Neville was severely criticized by his grandmother, it was only in private and did not involve the use of a Howler Letter.

Aunt Molly was probably angry because the speeding car belonged to her and her son and his classmates drove it into a tree, almost killing Harry and Neville. She acted irrationally and let all the classmates hear how she scolded Ron.

Even though Ted made up for it later and Hallie wrote to her to explain the incident, some things leave traces once they happen.

A nail is driven into wood, and even if it is pulled out it will leave a hole.

Ted patted Ron on the shoulder and said, "I understand. But don't worry. I said I would help you make money. You have saved up almost enough now. I will definitely save enough before the holiday. I swear."

"Thank you, Ted." Ron nodded to Ted and turned to walk towards the Gryffindor Tower.

……

Although the news of Ron vomiting slugs has been circulating for a few days, Ted has also diverted his attention with other things. I just hope Ron can get over this setback as soon as possible.

And the confinement of the crowd is already underway.

Ted and Malfoy were appointed by Snape to patrol the Forbidden Forest to make up for their mistakes, and the others could not escape the subsequent punishment.

Professor McGonagall will be furious when she finds out about this!

Harry didn't get a private lesson from Snape this time. It should be said that Snape hadn't been seen for several days. He studied for Potions on his own.

So this time Harry and Neville were sent together to write a fan letter to Lockhart.

It was Lockhart who asked for Neville, and Harry was just an extra.

Ron and Jerry fell into Filch's hands again and had to clean up.

Let’s put it this way, these two people’s proficiency in “cleaning up” and their understanding of magical cleaners are more profound than that of ordinary housewives and wizards.

Jerry: What toilet in the castle have we not cleaned?!

Ron: Can you please not take me with you next time? I don't think this is an honorable thing to do!
Most of the other little lions and snakes were sent to the greenhouse to pile dragon dung!

Yes, dragon manure is a very nutritious waste material, and a lot of it is needed every year. But it smells strong~
It is said that seven or eight little wizards vomited on the first day!
I believe this will teach them a profound lesson.

And now, as night fell, Ted was already heading towards Hagrid's hunting hut with his glowing wand in hand.

Behind him in the distance fell Malfoy.

Malfoy didn't want to go with Ted, but his own Luminescent Charm could only last less than a minute and kept flashing.

It was a dark day and everything was silent. Occasionally, one could hear the rustling of grass or the call of a strange bird, which was really scary.

So he didn't quite dare to walk by himself, and could only hang there spinelessly, not too far away.

"Knock, knock, knock~" Ted knocked on the door.

"Here we go! Oh, Ted, and that guy in the distance... the Malfoy family, right? Come over here!"

Hagrid put on his huge crossbow and muttered:

"Last year you were punished to patrol the Forbidden Forest, and I thought it was the last time! Merlin, please don't let anything happen again. Last time, the Ministry of Magic searched the Forbidden Forest for three days, but in the end they didn't find any dark wizards, but they did find the remains of many poachers..."

Malfoy, who had just come closer, shuddered violently when he heard this. His legs froze and he couldn't move.

Ted and his companion walked a long way and found that Malfoy was dawdling like a snail behind them.

Ted yelled, "Hey, Malfoy, hurry up. It's not safe here. If you fall and get caught by something, we won't be able to save you in time!"

When Malfoy heard this, he shuddered suddenly, "Ah~~~Wait for me!"

He didn't care about getting close to Ted now, he just wanted to stick to Ted.

Haha, coward~
……

This time, since there were only Ted and Malfoy, there was no division into teams.

In the silent forbidden forest, a thick layer of rotten leaves covered the ground, and stepping on it felt like stepping on the back of a monster.

Hagrid had a small umbrella hanging on his waist and a hunting crossbow in his hand. He would stop from time to time to check the traces on the ground, sometimes collect some herbs, or check the growth status of the trees.

"Ted, look here!"

Ted crouched down and shone his wand. "What animal's hoof print is this?"

Hagrid shook his big furry head. "No, these are centaur footprints."

"Centaurs?"

"Yes! Generally speaking, they won't come so close to the edge of the Forbidden Forest. They have a contract with Dumbledore. Of course there are exceptions... I hope they are not bad things."

As they continued to move forward, from time to time some small animals would quickly run through the grass, scaring Malfoy every time.

If this continues, he will suffer from nervous breakdown when he returns.

Ted smiled and said, "Malfoy, you don't have to be so scared. Although the Forbidden Forest is dangerous, isn't Hagrid here?"

Hagrid puffed out his chest: "Leave it to me!"

Malfoy felt more secure, but also embarrassed:
She looked down on Ted, who came from a Muggle orphanage, but his grades in all subjects were far better than hers, and his magic skills were incomprehensible.

I also look down on this stupid big guy, but now I need the big guy to ensure my safety, and I feel very safe!

Don't even mention the complicated feelings! It's the feeling of being embarrassed but having to do it. You all have experienced it, right?
The moon's shadow danced, casting some afterglow through the branches and leaves, and the three of them walked forward in the forest.

Ted and the other man were in front, and Malfoy could only follow behind them with his head down, listening to them discussing magical plants and magical animals. There was only a big dog with two tails beside him.

Even the dog didn't bother to look at him!
Malfoy stared at Fangya: Do you dare to look at me? Am I ignored by a dog?!
