Zhang Xu came to the Ravenclaw long table and was warmly welcomed by his classmates.

At this time, Zhang Xu saw an extremely cute female classmate at the long table waving to him and motioning for him to sit next to her.

Zhang Xu sat next to the female classmate and heard her say to herself in Chinese, "Xiao Xu, welcome to Ravenclaw." In the future, if you have something to do, just come to your aunt. ”

Looking at the cute girl in front of him who had talked a lot with herself in an old-fashioned tone, Zhang Xu once again felt the malice of the will of the universe.

Zhang Xu, a classmate of the aunt who called herself Zhang Xu, knew her, and Zhang Xu also saw her in the novel when she read the novel in her previous life, she was Qiu Zhang.

In that year, after Zhao Lao used the colorful text to reform the national fortune, a large number of sects and family children responded to the call of "mastering the long skills to control the country" and went to Western countries to learn advanced technology. In the past 100 years, tens of thousands of children have appeared in Western universities and major factories, and many of the ancestors of Zhang Xu's family have stayed overseas at this time. Later, many of the children returned from their studies and shed their blood for the cause of national liberation and national construction, composing a hymn that can be sung and cried. In addition, there are also some people who stay in the local area and open sand snacks and duck necks, and the ancestors of Zhang Qiu's family are one of them. After the signing of the Joint Declaration on the Heung Kong issue in 1984, relations between the two countries warmed up, and many descendants of the children who remained in the region returned to China one after another to recognize their ancestors. In 1985, after Zhang Qiu's father got in touch with Zhang Xu's family, he returned to his roots with the remains of his ancestors. Zhang Xu and Zhang Qiu met at this time. After everyone continued the family tree, they found that Zhang Qiu was a generation older than Zhang Xu, so the young lady Zhang Xu just met became a little aunt, and Zhang Qiu learned enough to talk to Zhang Xu with the attitude of the elders. Now the two have grown up and are sensible, but the habits they developed during the time they used to get along can't be changed for a while.

This kind of distant relationship is also common in Hogwarts, and the common intermarriage between wizarding families makes students from wizarding families more or less related. Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Draco Malfoy can be said to be relatives.

In Dumbledore's "Fool! Cry! Residue! Screw!" Afterward, the empty plate in front of the students was suddenly filled with roast beef, roast chicken, pork chops, lamb chops, sausages, steaks, boiled potatoes, baked potatoes, potato chips, Yorkshire pudding, pea sprouts, carrots, gravy, ketchup, and mint hard candy.

In all fairness, the dishes of the British aristocracy during the period of the Empire on which the sun never sets are still very rich, but after the sunset of the Empire, the British cuisine without the grandeur of the past has become a hero of the time, and it is becoming a hero one after another, looking up at the starry sky to dominate.

Zhang Xu stopped after eating eighty percent full, and ate a piece of jelly for dessert after the meal.

In this school that lacks extracurricular activities, Zhang Xu doesn't want to be a two-hundred-pound child.

After dinner, Dumbledore read a lot of precautions, and after singing the school song in pain, Zhang Xu and the other freshmen walked to the door of the common room under the leadership of prefect Penelo Criveat.

The Ravenclaw common room is at the very top of one of the castle's towers, and the door is topped by an eagle-shaped bronze knocker that asks a question, and can only be entered by answering the question it asks.

In front of the gate, Penelope Crivat said to the new students: "Our common room entrance, when you knock on the door, Eagle Ring will ask you questions, and if you can answer correctly, you will be allowed to enter. ”

Penelope Crivat finished speaking and knocked on the door.

Bronze Eagle Knocker: "What is the worst weather for the rats and mice?"

Penelope Crivat: "When it rains cats and dogs."

The door to the Ravenclaw common room opened, and Penelo Crivat led the freshmen into the common room.

When he entered the door, Zhang Xu was thinking about whether to teach the door knocker "Ride a monkey on the tree and a monkey underground, please ask." How many monkeys? Or "steps to put an elephant in the freezer."

The common room in Ravenclaw is a large circular room with tasteful arched windows on the walls and blue and bronze silks hanging from which Ravenclaw students can see the beautiful scenery outside during the day. The ceiling is a dome with stars on top and stars on the dark blue carpet below. The room has a table, chairs, bookshelves, and a white marble bust of Rowena Ravenclaw in a niche opposite the door. A door next to the statue leads to the dormitory above.

Penelo Crivat was speaking to the freshmen with the prefect's welcome speech.

[Warning of the number of words in the original text of the original text in front]

"Congratulations to all of you! I'm Prefect Penelope Crivat, and I'm excited to welcome you to Ravenclaw College. Our emblem is an eagle, soaring high above the pinnacle that no one can reach; Our colors are sky blue and bronze; Our common room is located in Ravenc

"The top of Lauta is hidden behind a door with a magic knocker. The arched windows of the circular common room offer a panoramic view of the Hogwarts campus: the Great Lake, the Forbidden Forest, the Quidditch Pitch and the Conservatory. No other college is blessed with this view.

"I don't mean to be pompous, this is where the smartest witches and wizards live. Like our founder, Rowena Ravenclaw, we make learning a priority. We don't need to have hidden common room entrances like other colleges. Our common room door sits at the top of a long, curved staircase with no handles and features a enchanted eagle-shaped bronze knocker. When you knock on the door, the Eagle Ring will ask you questions, and if you can answer correctly, you will be allowed to enter. For nearly a thousand years, no one but Ravenclaw could pass through this simple barrier.

"Some first-year students are scared of Eagle Ring's questions, don't worry. Ravenclaw is a good learner, and you'll soon learn to enjoy the challenges set by the Eagle Ring. It's not uncommon for 20 people to stand at the door of the common room, trying to answer questions for the day together. It's a great opportunity to meet Ravenclaw students from other grade levels and learn from them – but when you forget about your Quidditch suits and need to rush in and out, it's a little annoying. Therefore, I recommend that you double-check your bag before leaving Ravenclawa.

"Ravenclaw has another cool element: our people are very egos – some would even call them quirky. But geniuses are usually at a different pace than ordinary people, unlike some academies, where we think you can wear whatever you like, believe in whatever you want, and say whatever you like. We don't resent alternative people; On the contrary, we appreciate them!

"Speaking of eccentricity, you'll love our dean, Professor Filius Flitwick. People often underestimate him because he's really small (we think he's of elven blood, but we've never asked him rudely) and has a high-pitched voice, but he's the best and most knowledgeable spell professor alive in the world. His office door is always open to any problematic Ravenclaw, and if you're not happy, he'll let out those delicious pocket cakes hidden in a tin in your desk drawer and let them dance in front of you. Actually, you can pretend to be unhappy so that you can see the cakes dancing the cowboys, and it's really worth a try.

"Ravenclaw has an illustrious history. Most of the great wizard-inventors and innovators came from our Academy, including Perpetua Fancourt, inventor of the moon mirror, Laverne de Montmorency, the great love potions pioneer, and Ignatia Wildsmith, inventor of Floo powder. Notable Ravenclaw ministers of magic include Millicent Bagnold, who happened to be in office on the night Harry Potter escaped from the Dark Lord's death curse, and defended the celebration of wizards throughout England in his own words: "I insist that the celebration is our inalienable right. ”； There's also Minister Lorcan McLaird, who is a fairly intelligent wizard, but prefers to inhale smoke from the tip of his wand to communicate with people. Of course, I said earlier that we produce eccentric people. In fact, we've also contributed to the wizarding world the jellyfish hat the weirdo Yurick, a classic punchline from many wizard jokes.

"As for our relationship with the other three houses: you've probably heard of Slytherin. They aren't all bad guys, but you should be vigilant before getting to know them. Their long-standing house tradition is to win at all costs – so keep an eye out, especially in Quidditch matches and exams. The Gryffindors are not bad. If I have any problem with them, it's that Gryffindor is too fond of showing off. They are also much less tolerant of heterogeneity than we are; The truth is that they even joked about some of the Ravenclaws who were interested in the Ascension, or about the magical power of the Mountain Monster Egg, or the science of egg divination, which is a method of divination using eggs. Gryffindor doesn't have our intellectual curiosity, and for us, if you're willing to sit in the corner of the common room all night and knock eggs and record your predictions based on how the yolks landed, that's not a problem at all, and you're likely to find someone willing to help you. As for Hufflepuffs, no one would say they weren't friendly people. They are arguably the friendliest group of people in the school. Let's just say that when it comes to competition in exams, you don't have to worry too much about them.

"I guess that's all. Oh yes, the ghost of our house is Ms. Gray. Others thought she never spoke, but she would talk to Ravenclaw. She was the daughter of the Eagle Ancestor, a very beautiful lady, who was said to have something to do with Barrow the Bloody. She's especially useful when you're lost or can't find something.

"I'm sure you're going to have a great night. Our dormitories are in the corner tower next to the main tower; Our four-legged bed was covered with a sky-blue silk quilt, and the sound of the wind blowing in front of the window was very pleasant.

"I'll say it again: congratulations on being one of the smartest, most agile and funniest Hogwarts houses."

After the prefect's welcome speech, the new students began to enter the dormitory and look for their bunks.

The name tag of the new students hung at the door of the dormitory, and the new students who saw their names happily pushed the door in and got to know their new roommates.

Zhang Xu walked to the last dormitory and found that the dormitory in front of him was just full, and he occupied a dormitory by himself.

In the dormitory, which could accommodate four or five people, now there is only a bed and a set of desks placed near the window, and Zhang Xu's name is pasted on the corner of the bed and desk. The next day's class schedule is on the desk.

Zhang Xu checked several suitcases under the bed and found that all of them had been moved, and then checked the seals on the suitcases, and there were no traces of being touched.

Just as Zhang Xu took the textbook out of the suitcase and put it on the desk, there was a knock on the door.

Zhang Xu opened the door and found three little wizards standing outside the door.

"Hello, I'm Anthony Goldstein, and these two are Terry Bout and Michael Corner." The little wizard standing in the middle introduced himself and then introduced the two little wizards beside him to Zhang Xu.

"Hello, I'm Zhang Xu. My last name is Zhang. Zhang Xu introduced himself. He doesn't like people to call himself Xu Zhang according to the Western pronunciation, so he notes this every time he introduces himself.

"You're welcome to come and visit, but you see, my dormitory is empty now, and it's not suitable for receiving guests." After Zhang Xu introduced himself, he turned sideways to let the three little wizards at the door see the empty dormitory behind him.

Build a seven-star stove, boil three rivers in a copper kettle, set up a table of eight immortals, entertain sixteen parties, and all those who come are guests. For the classmates who come to visit, Zhang Xu is not the kind of person who puts up a shelf and rejects people thousands of miles away, and he has many friends and multiple roads when he goes out, so there is no need to make enemies on all sides. The kind of person who disagrees and angrily scolds each other when they meet, either stupidity, or a tsundere like Draco Malfoy's love for Harry Potter that you can't open your heart and can't pull your face, or a long-time rival like Lucius Malfoy and Arthur Weasley, or Draco Malfoy's discrimination against Hermione Granger.

Anthony Goldstein looked at Zhang Xu's dormitory and said to him, "We saw the name plate on your door and found that you live alone, if you feel the need, you can apply with Professor Flitwick to move to our dormitory." ”

Terry Bout on the side also said: "Yes, we have all discussed, our dormitory space is enough, you can come and live together." ”

"Thanks, but I have a better idea. Please come in. Zhang Xu invited the three little wizards into the dormitory.

Zhang Xu came to the bed and waved his hand to hold the wand that popped out, which made the eyes of the three little wizards behind him light up.

Zhang Xu waved his wand, and a large box under the bed slid out, and after a few clicks on the box, the box opened automatically.

Zhang Xu pointed to the books in the box and said, "This is my private collection of books, and I don't mind sharing them with you." Now I am planning to apply to the school to convert the empty space of the dormitory into a small reading room, do you have any good advice? ”

Anthony Goldstein was born in a wizarding family, and knew what books in the wizarding world represented, and the three friends were stunned for a while.

After sending off the three stunned classmates, Zhang Xu sorted out his textbooks and luggage again, and then got into the bed.
