Pa!
Hoffa grabbed Aglaia's white wrist. His fingers touched the bottom of the potion tube and he was about to exert force.
But this time, he also lost his balance and fell from a high place, bringing Aglaia with him.
With a high-decibel scream.
In the air, the two hit an oak branch and flipped upside down.
Plop!
Aglaia's 35kg fell on Hoffa's body.
This fall made Hoffa's chest feel stuffy and short of breath. Half of his body stood up and he couldn't catch his breath for a long time.
The two looked at each other. Obviously, Aglaia, who had the protection of a meat cushion, was in a better state. She snatched her wand and pointed it at her leg.
"Stop the curse!"
After removing the Stiff Curse, she rushed to the school.
The potion was still in her hand. Hoffa didn't give up. He turned over and grabbed her calf. He held it tightly and dragged her to the ground.
They began to fight again.
Aglaia was tall among the 11-year-old girls. Plus, girls generally developed earlier than boys. In the fight, Hoffa, who hadn't developed much, was at a disadvantage.
But at this moment.
Clatter clatter clatter!
The sound of horse hooves came from the dark Forbidden Forest. Joey rode the white horse out of the Forbidden Forest and stopped in front of his house.
Joey was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.
Hoffa was half-sitting on the ground, pulling a girl's leg. The girl was hugging her own leg, trying to break free from Hoffa's control.
If it wasn't for the deep disgust on their faces, Joey would have thought that the two were acting out a life and death drama.
Joey was surprised. "What are you doing here?"
Seeing that there were teachers, Aglaia subconsciously wanted to complain.
However, she immediately recalled that Huo Fa was refining medicine in Joey's house. The two of them must be in cahoots. Perhaps Joey was the one who instigated Huo Fa to refine medicine and had him come to her place to cheat her of her prescription.
All kinds of conspiracy theories flashed through Aglaia's mind.
She immediately put away the magic potion and put on a pitiful look.
"Mr. Administrator, Student Bach is bullying me."
Her eyes were misty, making people feel sorry for her.
Hoffa struggled to get up from the ground and said hoarsely, "Qiao Yi, stop her. She saw everything."
Aglaia's face suddenly changed, and all the pity on his face disappeared.
"Hmph, a teacher covering up for a student and violating the school rules. Hogwarts is really a trash school!"
After saying that, she struggled to break free and was about to leave.
However, Joey didn't seem to care about Aglaia. He shrugged nonchalantly and turned to Hoffa. "Hoffa, do you understand centaur language?"
Hoffa was hopping mad. Aglaia had snatched the magic potion and was about to report it to Ghoshak, but this idiot actually asked him if he understood the centaur language, was he serious?
"What the hell?"
Hoffa cursed and limped towards Aglaia.
However, something even more shocking happened.
Aglaia heard Joey's words and stopped in her tracks. She turned her head and looked at Joey in disbelief.
"What did you say, centaur language?"
Hoffa saw her stop and wanted to snatch the potion.
Aglaia only leaned to the side and dodged his hand. "Centaurs left behind words?"
Joey nodded. "That's right, I want to find someone who understands the language of mystical creatures."
"I understand, bring me there."
Aglaia dodged Hoffa's hand again and said.
Huo Fa: "What the hell are you talking about? If you want to see how powerful centaurs are, then give me back my magic potion! "
"Don't touch me!" Aglaia leaned against the tree trunk with one hand behind her back and the other hand pushing Hoffa away.
"How could an ordinary person like you understand the true value of a precious prophecy. I'll first see what the centaurs left behind, then I'll report you to the school! "
With that, she held her head high and said to Joey: "Lead the way!"
Joey's eyes widened, but he wasn't angry at all. Instead, he felt that it was very interesting.
"Is this your friend? Hoffa. "
"No!"
The two of them said at the same time.
Joey couldn't help but laugh: "Little girl, do you really understand centaur language?"
"I understand everything." Aglaia said.
Joey said with interest, "What a proactive girl, come with me."
With that, he took out a horse from the stable under Hoffa's shocked gaze and gave it to Aglaia.
Aglaia flipped onto the horse, her movements were no less skillful than Joey's.
Joey also got on a horse and said to Hoffa: "Why don't you go back first, I'll persuade her on the way and have her return the potion to you."
Hoffa looked at the girl on the horse with an eager expression, thinking that Joey was thinking too simply, he didn't understand Aglaia at all. If this person could communicate normally, then humans wouldn't be far from the world's unity.
Hoffa silently took out the little black horse that he usually rode from the stable. No matter what, he had to get the potion back himself.
Joey shrugged and pulled the reins to turn the horse around.
Thus, under the sunset, the three people and three horses followed the path into the forbidden forest. Along the way, none of them spoke. Other than the sound of the horse's hooves breaking the branches, there was no other sound.
The trees became denser, and the sunlight above their heads gradually disappeared.
Only when they couldn't see the shadow of the path did Hoffa realize that they had already deviated from the normal path. This was a completely different path from the last time he went to see the Thunderbird Talas.
The three people went deeper and deeper into the forest, the horses gradually slowed down because the surroundings were densely covered with low branches and thorny vines.
Aglaia's school uniform was torn and tattered by the thorny vines, but she didn't care at all, she even excitedly stared with her eyes wide open.
It was obvious that she was very curious about the so-called centaur language.
Hoffa stared at the potion in her hand, wondering if there was any curse that could make this white raven shut up forever.
But Joey didn't know about Hoffa's worries, he was still on the horse explaining to the two of them.
"There was originally a centaur tribe here, there were seventeen centaurs. Their leader was called Nannu, Hoffa you've seen him before. But just yesterday, they sent me an arrow letter. "
As he spoke, he took out a short feather arrow from his quiver and handed it to Hoffa.
Using the afterglow of the setting sun, Hoffa saw a row of words engraved on the arrow.
[Leave the Forbidden Forest, quickly leave this land.]
[Leave the Forbidden Forest?]
Hoffa didn't understand.
After reading it, Joey handed the arrow back to Aglaia.
Unexpectedly, she only glanced at the arrow and threw it to the side.
"Don't give me that, centaurs don't know how to write to you in English. This kind of creature will only leave behind one language. "
"Ah?"
Joey's expression became confused.
Finally, when Joey brought the two of them through the protective net formed by the thorny vines.
They came to a clearing full of fallen leaves. This was once a centaur settlement, Hoffa could still see some simple tools that were not taken away, pots and pans, wooden bows and arrows, and the like scattered on the ground.
At the top of the clearing, the setting sun shone through the gaps between the trees, illuminating the area with rays of Tindal light.
In the middle of the clearing, there was a gray rock.
The rock didn't look any different from a normal rock from the Scottish Highlands. It was round and had some cracks and moss.
The only difference was that there were many yellow characters engraved on it, and those characters were different from any human language Hoffa had seen before.
Joey said, "After I received the message, I came here in the afternoon to take a look, but I didn't find anything, only this row of words that I can't read."
Aglaia didn't care what Joey saw, once she saw the rock, her blue eyes lit up. She hurriedly put the potion tube in her pocket, then jumped off the horse and quickly walked over.
Then, she knelt on one knee and began to touch the surface of the rock.
Hoffa had never seen her with such an expression, it was a mixture of infatuation and curiosity.
After touching the rock for a while, Aglaia turned her head and said to Joey:
"There is a lot of information on the rock, but to put it simply, it represents fear, murder, and war! The intensity of the emotions, I have never seen it before. "
Hoffa turned his head to look at the characters on the rock, he couldn't understand those characters, and he couldn't understand how a row of words could contain such intense emotions.
"It's too vague," Joey frowned and said: "Can you be more specific, what exactly happened."
"There's no other way," Aglaia shook her head, "The centaur's characters are different from human characters, it isn't a carrier of clear information, but more like a vague feeling, like musical notes. If you want to know what exactly happened, you have to find a centaur to ask. "
Find a centaur?
Joey frowned and looked at the sky, it was getting late. The sun was already halfway down, and the clouds in the sky were red.
"Forget it, you can look at it again. If you can translate it, then translate it. If not, I'll bring you back, don't stay in the Forbidden Forest for too long."
Aglaia continued to study the rock.
Hoffa wasn't interested in what was on the rock, most of his attention was on Aglaia, and he was prepared to talk about the potion under her robe.
If he let her take the potion back, according to Ghoshak's cold style, he would have to suffer a bit.
He saw Joey wandering around in the open space in the forest, frowning from time to time as he picked up the arrows scattered on the ground to take a look. While Aglaia had an intoxicated look on her face as she studied the rock, as if there was a jade worth millions in it.
Hoffa thought that this was a good opportunity.
A good opportunity to take back the potion.
He tiptoed behind Aglaia and entered the illusion state.
At this moment, Aglaia was kneeling on the ground, sometimes using her finger to trace the rough surface of the rock, sometimes pressing her ear to the rock and closing her eyes, as if she was feeling something.
Hoffa didn't want to know what she was doing. He stood behind Aglaia and bent down.
He reached out his hand to her waist, held his breath, and lifted her robe. Then, he took out his medicine bit by bit.
Aglaia didn't react at all.
After taking back the potion, Hoffa sighed in relief and was about to destroy the potion.
But he found a few shallow footprints among the fallen leaves on the ground. The footprints weren't obvious, and if he didn't crouch down, he definitely wouldn't have seen them.
The footprints were large and messy, and were left by an adult.
This surprised Hoffa.
This was a centaur settlement, so it wasn't strange to see horse hooves. But why would there be footprints? It wasn't right to say that it was left by Joey.
Joey was only one person, and he and Aglaia were both children.
But these footprints were obviously left by several adults.
Could there be other people here?
Huo Fa slowly straightened up and took two steps following the footprints.
When he walked to the side of a fir tree, he stopped. Because the footprints separated and went in different directions.
Hoffa felt that something was wrong. The centaurs wouldn't disappear for no reason. It wasn't a good idea to chase after them. He got the potion, and it was time to go back.
As soon as the thought came to his mind, Hoffa wanted to retreat.
But a slight hissing sound in the air interrupted Hoffa's footsteps.
He looked up, and his attention was attracted by a few green fruits on the branches.
The fruits were dark green, and looked very hidden in the dense canopy, but it was also somewhat familiar.
There were some sharp protrusions on their bodies, and they looked like green thorny balls hanging upside down on the branches, slightly trembling.
There was an inexplicable hissing sound in the air.
Hoffa dispelled the illusion, and lightly moved to Joey's side, and whispered: "Joey, what is that fruit on the tree, do you know it?"
Joey followed Hoffa's finger and looked over.
But with just a glance, Joey's body trembled and said in shock:
