Chapter 4: Letters from Hogwarts
This manor comes from a down-and-out aristocratic son who has failed to speculate and owes a large amount of debt, so he can only sell his ancestral property.
According to the past set by the main god, Lin Zhengyang had foresight and chose this suburban manor near London, and would rather pay a high price to buy it as a place to settle.
For this, 100,000 pounds were paid.
Together with the estate, as well as a nearby woodland, thousands of acres of land, all transferred.
Admittedly, the estate itself is not worth a hundred thousand pounds.
What he likes is that under this land, there is a subtle spiritual vein.
Even now, when spiritual power is thin, there is still quite a lot of spiritual power stored in the depths of the earth, flowing in the spiritual veins.
It is impossible for every complete world to exhaust the source power just because of such a thing as the ebb tide of the source sea, because there are various large and small cycles in the world itself, and the spiritual power always exists, and the difference is only in what form.
Lin Zhengyang has limited knowledge about the source sea, only that it is a ubiquitous ocean of vitality, which is full of vitality.
Strictly speaking, all Yuan Qi is unique, and there is no such thing as being identical, this is because the Source Sea is chaotic and disorderly, and its essence is so.
After reaching the seventh star, after his authority in the main god space was further improved, he gained a lot of relevant knowledge and knew more secrets.
But I still don't know anything about the meaning of the existence of the main god space.
"Three thousand years of Fa-rectification, three thousand years of Fa-rectification, three thousand years of Fa-rectification, and 10,000 years of the end of the Fa. The saying of the end of the Dharma era originated in Buddhism, and it has nothing to do with the source of the tide of power, but only with the human heart. People's hearts do not yearn for cultivation, and it is okay for the Buddha to come. ”
"Ragnarok is directly related to the source tides. Those who can't adapt to this desert era can either leave early and run after the source force, or hide in a dug shelter and wait for the high tide to come...... The term is about one thousand to two thousand years. ”
Lin Zhengyang stood on the balcony, staring at the rising sun in the east, and his thoughts drifted into the distance.
In the distance, a snow-white owl flew in the sky, with a rolled parchment tied around its neck.
"Letter from Hogwarts?"
He affirmed, stretching out his right hand and letting the owl land on the guardrail.
"Goo, goo·····"
The owl looked at him, waiting for his feeding.
Grabbing a handful of shelled grains, spreading them in the palm of his hand and feeding them, the owl was not picky, and swallowed it in a few bites.
It was scattered in the fields near the manor, and he ingested it in the air.
A one-handed Taoist technique, without the slightest pyrotechnics, is simply at your fingertips.
Dongtian Immortal Zhen, the same body as the Tao, is the Great Dao Heavenly Immortal in China, and here in the West, it is the true God located in the Kingdom of God.
After eating a few bites of cereal, the satisfied owl dropped a roll of letterhead, flapped its wings and flew away.
The letter is made of parchment, with a shield in the shape of a wax seal with an "H" subtitle in capital letters, surrounded by a lion, an eagle, a badger, and a snake.
This emblem Lin Zhengyang recognized as the emblem of Hogwarts, the only school of magic and wizardry in the United Kingdom.
Unfolding the parchment, lines of English were written in emerald green ink, and he could read without any obstacles.
As early as three years ago, Lin Zhengyang, who was planning to immigrate to the UK, was already teaching Zhang Ming, who was ten years old at the time, the pure London dialect.
Britain is one of the few countries that still retains a considerable level of mystical power, although it has also declined, but it is not so large in comparison, which is one of the important reasons why he emigrated.
"Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry: Armando. Duppet (First Class Magician of the Merlin Order, Vice President of the Wizards Association, Member of the International Confederation of Magic)

"Hogwarts is not badly efficient, and it is not in vain that I spent money to donate a position on the board of directors."
Hogwarts is the only and monopolistic educational institution in the whole of the United Kingdom, and it is also a famous institution of higher learning, and in the wizarding world, only young wizards born in England and of the right age will receive invitations.
Note that there are two prerequisites here, born in the UK, of the right age.
Because this involves the requirements of the Ministry of Magic, the supervision of wizards, known as "traces", is set up for the purpose of monitoring the spells cast by wizards.
Zhang Ming didn't fit the bill, and although he also had the magic power to cast spells, it was clear that he couldn't have a trace on him.
Hogwarts has special magic that allows it to search for students, but the Presbyterian Church, the predecessor of the Ministry of Magic, has a pact with the four founders that it cannot recruit young wizards who are not under supervision.
In this way, Zhang Ming could not enter Hogwarts to study.
This is not good for his future life in the UK.
For the sake of his disciples, in the foreseeable future, they will all settle in the UK, so Lin Zhengyang seized a seat on the board of directors of the school.
Lin Zhengyang is known as the contemporary Taoist ancestor, against the odds of the general trend of the times, the strength is far beyond the imagination of the world, at least in this era of mysterious decline, there is no opponent, the poor director's family, very obediently gave up his family's seat, although Lin Zhengyang gave them millions of pounds, well, the equivalent alloy Galleon is about 150,000.
Because of this incident, the family got in touch with Lin Zhengyang, and occasionally an invitation came, inviting him to participate in some communication.
A powerful wizard from the East, even here he is widely respected, mysterious, powerful, and wealthy, Lin Zhengyang is regarded as a pure-blood nobleman from the ancient country of the East.
There is a conventional wisdom in the wizarding world that the older and more mysterious, the more powerful.
For example, the Four Ancient Kingdoms.
The four great civilizations are Ancient Egypt (northeastern Africa and western Asia), ancient Babylon (western Asia), ancient India (southern Asia) and China (eastern Asia).
The four ancient civilizations actually correspond to the four birthplaces of the world, and the civilizations refer to the four regions where the four large human civilizations were first born, namely the two river basins, ancient Egypt, ancient India, and China, while the Aegean civilization of the same period is not included.
The significance of the four ancient civilizations lies not in the chronological order, but in the fact that they are the birthplace of the current civilization and the influence of the region where it is located.
Therefore, these four kingdoms are also the origin of mysterious forces around the world.
So, despite the fall of Egypt, many shamans still make an annual pilgrimage to Egypt as a sacred place for alchemy.
And the only ancient country in the East that has been inherited to this day, with a mysterious accumulation of nearly tens of thousands of years, in the eyes of the European wizarding world, it is quite terrifying.
In fact, the Chinese, in the wizarding world, are generally considered to have a magical ancestry.
This is also recognized among purebloods.
They believe that living in China, where magic originated and has been passed down to the present day, is itself a symbol of blood.
Of course, Lin Zhengyang's own strength supports this point of view.
In private, he was treated as a thousand-year-old immortal.
In fact, according to the "human design" given by the main god, this incarnation is indeed a young man who is only thirty-three years old, but he is a genius who has gone too far.
This feeling is very strange, obviously it is not something that he has done, but carefully replaying the "memory" given by the main god, it is indeed made by himself.
This is a power that involves a deeper realm, perhaps more than the seven-star level.
While experiencing the "human design" given by the main god, Lin Zhengyang walked into the spacious and bright main hall.
Zhang Ming was drinking millet porridge with a small plate of pickles.
Seeing the master walk in, he hurriedly took a few bites, swallowed a boiled egg, drank up the rice porridge, took out the paper towel on the table to wipe his mouth, and then asked him with a blank look.
"Master, is there a letter from the school?"
Lin Zhengyang had already mentioned this matter to him yesterday, and the little boy had been looking forward to it.
In fact, when he taught him English in London three years ago, he was already looking forward to entering this magic school.
There are no magic schools in China, only various schools, which pass on Taoism to each other by factions.
There are famous three mountain runes, namely Shangqing Sect, Zhengyi, Quanzhen Sect, these three families, followed by Sanfeng, Emei, Wenshi, Qingwei, Jingming, Mixed Yuan, Lu Zu······ and other factions.
At present, there are a total of 86 Taoist sects that still have lineages.
"When did the master not do what he promised?"
"Pack your things and follow me to Diagon Alley in a moment."
