"You and I are both caged birds. These words are engraved on the peculiar birdcage outside the responsive house.

In fact, if there weren't so many terrible Death Eaters or wizarding armies, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry would be a very good fairytale castle. This castle is even more than the fairytale castle where princesses and princes live and hide golden treasures.

Countless wizards have longed for life at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. All over the world, whether it is wizards in England, or wizards in the Americas on the other side of the ocean, or even wizards in the Far East on the ancient continent, they all regard being a student of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as their beautiful birthday wish.

Pets are allowed at Hogwarts, including owls, toads, cats, dodos, and more. Among them, cat lovers certainly want to bring their cats to class. I'm afraid there are very few schools in the world that can.

As a boarding school, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry pets can be kept in dormitories, but some really wild animals, such as Australian sloths, baby raccoons and some Scottish hedgehogs, need to be kept in cages because they are slightly dangerous. Of course, in Hagrid's opinion, these animals are very kind animals.

As is always the case in the wizarding world, many students have done their job in these places. For example, there is an inscription engraved on it, and near the Room of Requirement, there is a very strange cage with a cage in it, and there are two birds, one black and one white, in it.

The outer cage is engraved with the spell: "Everyone wants to break through;" and the small cage inside is carved with a magic pattern: "Everyone wants to be protected".

In the middle of these two cages, there are two birds, and some students insist that they are magical creatures, which some wizard has transformed into something. And some students think that the two birds are real birds.

Harry's mother, Lily, had given her Potions professor a beautiful gift: a small bowl with a piece of water floating in the middle, and the petal sank from the surface of the water, and when it reached the bottom, it suddenly turned into a small fish.

The magically turned fish disappeared with Lily Potter's death. Unlike real creatures, these magical creatures are not strictly life, and Transfiguration can do many things that Muggles can't understand, but they can't do it out of nothing.

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was created by magic and will be destroyed by the power of magic, and the cause and effect of history are like terrible wheels, and no one can stop the progress of time.

Wizarding England is a birdcage, while Hogwarts Castle is a small birdcage within this big birdcage. After the castle became the property of wizards, magic became an indispensable part of the castle.

There are a total of one hundred and forty-two staircases at Hogwarts. Some of them are wide and large, some are narrow and small, and they are wobbly, some go to different places every Friday, and some of them are halfway up and a staircase suddenly disappears, and you have to remember where to jump over. Some of the castle's towers are interconnected, and some of them look like there are roads, but in reality they are a dead end.

In addition, there are many doors that will not open for you if you unceremoniously ask them to open or poke them in the right place, and some of them are not real doors at all, just solid walls that appear to be doors. It's hard to remember what's in what place, because everything seems to be constantly moving. The people in the portrait also constantly visit each other, and it is certain that even the armor can walk.

Such an environment is naturally very curious for new students, but for those who have lived here for many years and have become accustomed to greeting portraits, talking to doors, and dancing on the stairs, the castle is not so interesting.

As the twins say, Hogwarts Castle is a nice place, but if you stay too long, it's easy to get bored.

But some wizards apparently don't think so. They love their cages and are willing to stay in one place for the rest of their lives, or longer. They don't want to start any new adventures, they just want to repeat the joy they already have. They don't want to leave their comfort zone, and it's good to stay where they are.

Ghosts are like that. Often, when you are about to open a door, a ghost suddenly pops out from behind the door and startles you. Of course, most of such ghosts are male ghosts, and Helena has never played such a prank. She was a very polite and slightly proud lady. We rarely mention Nick, the ghost of Gryffindor, who is actually a very contradictory ghost. Gryffindor students are never short of courage, and Nick has been asked more than once, "Why don't you have the courage to start a new journey?" Something seemed to stop him.

Nick, who was almost headless, was happy to show the way to the new Gryffindor students, but if you're already late for class and you run into a prankster Peeves, it's even more difficult than running into two locked doors and a staircase with a lot of traps. He will snap the wastepaper basket to your head, tear the carpet off your feet, throw chalk heads at you, or sneak behind you, grab your nose with his transparent hand and scream "Hold your nose!"

The feeling of being passed through the body by a ghost is hard to describe, and it seems that your own body has been immersed in ice water, which makes you shiver. Ghosts, as an indescribable being, hold many secrets. For example, the Ravenclaw Crown, whose whereabouts are known only to ghosts. For example, for more distant things, the correct answer can only be known by asking the ghosts.

Shea's previous dealings with Helena Ravenclaw the Bloodless Barrow had discovered that these ghosts had memories, not only from their lifetimes, but also from their time as ghosts.

The only downside may be that you can't leave a fixed place. As mentioned earlier, ghosts are the part of the birds that love cages, and cages make them feel safe.

Every Thursday night, the divination class observes the stars with a telescope and learns the names of the different stars and the trajectories of the planets.

The starry sky at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is one of the most beautiful in the world, far from the Muggle city, and there are few light sources around. Observing Mars, the Moon, meteors, and rare comets with a telescope from the tower is a great pleasure. Wizards are not only obsessed with the pursuit of magical sources, there are also many wizards who love the starry sky.

Whether Muggles or wizards, the starry sky can always trigger the most primitive human emotions. For countless years, when people have a little leisure, they will always be shocked by the vastness of nature when they see the almost eternal starry sky.

Some may insist that nothing lasts forever, but just look up at the stars: for thousands of years, these stars have risen and fallen as if they had existed forever, and human beings are nothing compared to these brilliant things.

In addition to divination, another course at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry that is different from other schools is Herbology. Unlike Potions, Herbology focuses primarily on the cultivation of magical plants and the extraction of raw liquids.

Three times a week, the stocky Professor Sprout takes a group of chirping students to the greenhouse at the back of the castle to study herbalism, how to cultivate these exotic plants and fungi and learn what they are used for.

What impresses people are the half-plant, half-animal herbs. In the ancient mythology of the Far East, there is a kind of goblin of ginseng dolls, which is a combination of magical animals and plants, and the Far East also produces a combination of insects and fungi herbs. Mandrake, Mibumibao, Devil's Web, Gill Sac Grass, etc., all of these herbs have a common characteristic, they all seem to be strange creatures between animals and plants.

Of course, as the time spent studying at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry Castle increases, some classes can gradually become unbearable.

Probably the most sleepy course is the history of magic, which is the only one taught by ghosts. Professor Binns fell asleep in front of the fireplace in the faculty lounge, forgetting to bring his body with him to class the next morning, and he became a ghost. During the lesson, Professor Binns spoke in a monotonous voice, while the students scribbled down names and dates. Professor Binns is like a magic radio, repeating monotonous and tedious broadcasts. Many students only lasted five minutes before they went to meet the goddess in their dreams.

The biggest difference between learning Charms and Transfiguration is that the former is more complex and requires much more attention. Professor Flitwick often gave his students personal demonstrations of spells that, unlike Transfiguration spells, had a common theoretical basis. Charms classes, like Muggle math classes, are very complex and take a lot of time to understand the differences and connections between different spells and different magic systems.

Professor McGonagall is certainly not as intelligent as Professor Flitwick, but they have completely different teaching styles. Professor Flitwick is more of a liberal discussion in the classroom, unlike Professor McGonagall. She is more particular about steps and rules.

She didn't like to see the students get too excited, and seeing Ron doing nothing, Professor McGonagall couldn't help but harshly ask him to complete his transformation classwork. Many of the students were scared of her, including the fifth-graders.

Professor McGonagall once turned the podium into a not-so-stupid pig, much to the surprise of all the students. Xie An was also very curious about how such a transformation technique could be realized. Because no matter how stupid a pig is, it is still a living being, not to mention that it has been transformed from a podium.

Until now, Xie An has not been able to solve this mystery. Although there are some simple theories in Transfiguration textbooks, according to Xie An, these theories may have loopholes.

This has always been one of the biggest mysteries that Xie An has tried to figure out. Even if Xie An later consulted Empress Anne, the Empress could only explain that this was a strange transformation of matter, but how to define life and where the energy that kept life alive came from, the Empress was not too sure. After all, it is too complicated for wizards to explain ATP and cellular kinetic energy, and perhaps only Gellert Grindelwald can perfectly bridge the gap between the two.

Speaking of Professor McGonagall, Severus Snape has to be mentioned. As the head of Slytherin House, Snape had always had a reputation for partiality.

One of the strange things about this is that Slytherin student leaders don't usually become future Slytherin heads. Snape probably didn't realise that his partiality had no real benefit other than the collective alienation of the other three houses for Slytherin—maybe a little, if it had to be counted in the House Cup—the kind of "love" that had kept the Slytherins more dominant.

However, when it comes to potion configuration, Snape is undoubtedly a first-class master. "Potions are the perfect magic of a combination of precision science and rigorous craftsmanship. Snape often told his students this in class.

"There's no stupid waving of a wand here, so many of you won't believe it's magic. I don't expect you to really grasp the beauty of the smoky and fragrant cauldron that simmers, and you don't really understand the magic of the liquid that flows into people's veins, the magic of the mind and the will that is blurring. I can teach you how to increase your prestige, brew glory, and even stop death—but one thing has to be, and that is that you are not the kind of fools and fools I often encounter. ”

If you add daffodil root powder to wormwood infusion, you will get the water of life and death, which is what those black-robed wizards asked the house-elves to give their students to drink not long ago, of course, the black-robed wizard's water of life and death has been reconfigured, making this magic potion more suitable for adding to food, and not turning into a deadly poison.

This is the general life of Hogwarts Castle, and many wizards yearn for it. The founder of Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, she had hoped to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but unfortunately she was unable to do so. Some wizards from the Far East also thought of studying at Hogwarts, but unfortunately this school generally only recruits wizards and British wizards. The number of Muggle admissions is pitiful, and only about three people may be admitted a year, so they basically do not recruit from foreign countries.

Fortunately, the Suzaku Magic School has been open to the public, and for a long time before, the Daoist system did not allow the Suzaku Magic School to enroll students in the Far East Country.

Hogwarts Castle is an interesting place, and like every wizard or Muggle, the school always leaves the best and most innocent memories, from the first kiss of first love, to the pain of graduation, from youth and ignorance to gradual maturity. Wizards begin their journey at Hogwarts, breaking through themselves and their cages.
