"Get ready to go. An old man with silver hair looked at Seamus, who had already cleaned up.

The old man, who called himself Maren White, came to Seamus's house with Dumbledore yesterday to inform him that he was going to leave for China today. Early this morning, White came to Seamo's door and asked him to quickly pack up and prepare to go.

The long silver hair made Mullen look very capable, Dumbledore said that Mullen had been his friend for many years, and this time Dumbledore couldn't personally send Seamus over because he had to arrange exchange students from Huaxia, so he let Mullen go.

Marlen White was the manager of the overseas affairs department of the White Owl Mail Company, and was very familiar with international contacts, so Dumbledore asked him to help send Seamus to China.

Packing all his belongings, Seamus carried two suitcases, one for the Halloween gift Daisy had given him, and the other for Dumbledore.

"Don't think about me, then, I'll be back soon. Seamus said goodbye to his parents and Lupin with a hippie smile, wanting to dilute the atmosphere of parting.

Simour took Mullen's hand, and with a bang in the air, the two of them disappeared from the living room, and when they opened their eyes again, they had already arrived at a toilet, which looked like a public toilet.

"Where are we going, why are we going to the public toilets?" "The inside of this toilet is very clean, there is no smell, it looks like it has been built for a long time, but it has never been put into use.

"To China, of course. Mullen replied briefly, not at all as rambling as an old man of the same age, and walked towards the exit.

Seamus hurriedly chased after him with his suitcase, and when he came out, he looked back, and there was a signboard at the door of the toilet, which said, "It is being repaired and suspended."

But there was no sign of the toilet being put into use at all, it turned out that the wizards were used to flying abroad, and even arranged a foothold inside the airport so that their apparitions could not be detected.

Mullen's steps were not big, but his walking speed was not slow, and Seamus had some difficulty keeping up with him, and by this time they had come to a hall, and Seamus only then realized that the place they had come to was actually Heathrow Airport.

"It turns out that we were flying to Huaxia, and I thought we would use a portkey or something. "Seamus was a little surprised, he didn't expect the wizard to travel abroad by plane.

"The longer the portkey, the more difficult it is to make and the more risky it is, and if there were no Muggle planes, we would have to turn the portkey several times. Hearing Seamus speak, Mullen explained in a rare way, this was the first time Seamus had heard him say so many words along the way.

Seamus was carrying two suitcases in his hands, both of which were very retro styles, and Marlen, who walked side by side with him, dressed in casual clothes and empty-handed, he was more like a wizard than the two of them.

"It's the ticket, the two of us weren't in the same row. Mullen handed over a ticket, which was in a good position, in the first row of economy class.

It turns out that wizards will also have times when they can't grab tickets, but the first row doesn't matter, anyway, it's quite spacious to sit in, and silently collect the tickets. Along the way, Seamus didn't see any expression on Mullen's face, at first Simo wanted him to open the conversation, for such a long time, no one chatted too boring, but unfortunately Mullen didn't give him this opportunity at all, and he didn't bother to say it.

Arriving at the ticket gate, they passed the ticket gate without any problems, and Seamus's suitcase also passed the inspection smoothly due to the cover of magic. The flight they were on was about to take off, and Mullen accurately stuck the time and didn't let them wait at the airport.

Seamus was a little dumbfounded when he got on the plane, and when he entered the cabin, Malen turned left, and Seamus could only turn right, because he was economy class, and Malen's ticket was obviously first class.

What does this mean? Although I didn't pay for it, you don't have to save like this, you really can't let me pay, it doesn't matter to him whether the economy class is or the first class, but Maren obviously has the meaning of targeting, at first I thought it was the peak of summer vacation tourism, and I didn't grab the ticket so I wasn't in the same row.

Seamus didn't quite understand, but he didn't get angry, he just thought about it carefully, whether he was with Mullen or the White Owl Mailing Company, there was no contradiction between them, why was Mullen not very friendly from the beginning?

Before yesterday, he dared to guarantee that he had never met Malen, and naturally there could be no contradiction. I really couldn't understand the reason, so Seamus could only put it down for the time being, and took out the "Guide to Medieval Witchcraft" that he had with him, which had already applied a confusion charm, and Muggles would never read a word.

It's been a long journey, and they've been setting off since the morning, and if they don't do anything along the way, Seamus will be bored and go crazy. To this day, Ximo's understanding of the Chinese magic world is slightly equal to nothing, except for knowing the exact existence of Kui Niu and Wu Wu in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

Moreover, he knew that Kui Niu was in England, and Wu Wu was in the United States, and neither of them were in China, and there was very little communication between the Chinese magic world and European and American wizards, even less than between Africa and the United Kingdom.

In the books of the Muggle world, Seamus had found a lot of information about the customs of China, but he had long known that there was too little understanding between wizards and Muggles, and those books could not bring him any discoveries.

However, in the books of the wizarding world, except for the earliest books, which vaguely mentioned Huaxia, there is no Huaxia in the later European magical history. And the earliest batch of books, most of which were left over 2,000 years ago, is a long time ago, and who knows what kind of changes will occur in more than 2,000 years.

After more than ten hours, they finally landed from an altitude of 10,000 meters, and with the prompt sound on the radio, Seamus woke up from his sleep and walked off the plane with the flow of people.

The long journey of more than ten hours did not make Malen look tired, although he was wearing casual clothes, those inches-long silver hair still stood straight and straight, without the slightest sign of being bent, making people feel like he was sitting on a plane for more than ten hours.

"Where are we going now?" said Seamus to Mullen after taking his luggage.

"Go to school. Mullen still answered him briefly, keeping his attitude of cherishing words like gold.

Seamus thought that Mullen would at least send him to school before leaving, but after walking a few steps inside the airport, he saw a young man of about twenty years old, holding a sign with his name on it.

Mullen brought Seamus to the man and nodded at him, but before the young man could say his welcome, Mullen left straight away, leaving both Seamus and the young man confused.

After a moment of silence, it was Seamus who broke the situation first and said in proficient Chinese: "Hello, I'm Seamus Finigan, is it me who you want to pick up?"

"Yes, I was sent by the school to pick you up. The young man quickly reacted and said with a smile: "My name is Tao Chengzhi, and your Chinese is awesome." ”

"Thank you for the compliment, then I'll call you Brother Tao, if you have a lot of trouble, please bear with me. Seamus smiled and chatted with him.

"Alright, let's go to school now. Tao Chengzhi took a suitcase in his hand and walked him out of the airport.

Got into a taxi, the two of them chatted in the car, different from Mullen's indifference, Tao Chengzhi seemed very enthusiastic, because there were not many common topics, and most of them were talking about things from south to north.

After a while, they became warm, "Seamo, you are only twelve years old this year, and your family is so relieved to let you go out alone." ”

"Why, didn't you just see it? The one who came out with me, he sent me here. Seamus was still a little confused as to why Mullen seemed to see himself as a bomb and couldn't wait to get him out of the way.

"Then do you have any conflict with the person just now, why did you just get off the plane and leave? Tao Chengzhi asked gossipingly, with an interested expression, as if he wanted to hear a bizarre story from it.

"He probably has something to do. Seamus didn't want to talk too much about Mullen, after all, he didn't understand what the situation was, so he wanted to change the topic, "Brother Tao, I'm going to stay in China for a year, or I'll take a Chinese name, and it's easier to call." ”

"Okay, that's fine, do you plan to pick one yourself, or do you want to meet the teacher later and ask the teacher to choose a name for you. Tao Chengzhi also agreed, and did not react to his behavior of changing the topic, as if he was very happy as long as someone chatted.

"Presumably you know more about Chinese culture, I don't know what surname you want, you can choose a name from some classic books. Tao Chengzhi enthusiastically helped him with advice, thinking about what kind of name should be called.

Seamus was wondering if he wanted to use the name of his previous life, anyway, he was used to hearing it for more than 20 years, but it was not bad to be able to choose a more connotative name, and the time was slowly spent in the chat between the two of them and the entanglement of Seamu.

"It's here, get out of the car. Tao Chengzhi was still so energetic, helping him carry a box, the two of them got out of the car, the fare was still from Tao Chengzhi, and Simo also exchanged some currency before he came, but Tao Chengzhi insisted on letting him out, saying that he would do his best to be a landlord.

"Then thank you Brother Tao, and invite Brother Tao to dinner when the matter is done. ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. After getting out of the taxi, the two of them had a hiking trail in front of them, winding and winding, blocked by dense woods, and they couldn't see how long the path was, "The school is on the top of the mountain, this section of the road is up to us, if you are tired, just say it, we are not in a hurry." ”

"Okay, I'm fine. With that said, Seamus looked at the top of the mountain deep in the white clouds and couldn't help but tremble a little in his legs.
