Chapter 60: The Real Slytherin
.........
Combining the information obtained in the letter with what he learned, Zhang Xiao can probably guess when the letter was.
Before Hogwarts was founded, wizards varied greatly, with powerful wizards such as Slytherin and Godry Ravencrowe, as well as some wizarding families.
They have a relatively complete collection of books and inherited knowledge, so the level of magic is high.
And some lucky people who find their predecessors through adventure or luck and leave a few words and embark on the path of wizards are much worse.
At that time, the master-apprenticeship system was more popular in the wizarding world, where a wizard took one or two apprentices, and the apprentices were more like followers and servants.
They are responsible for the teacher's food, clothing, shelter and transportation, and the teacher teaches them some "magic" depending on the situation.
Of course, the most powerful thing must be hidden by oneself and will not be passed on to the outside world, unless he is about to die.
This leads to a more serious problem:
The teacher hid it, and in the event of an accident, the inheritance was broken, leaving only two poor apprentices with low-level magic.
Salazar Slytherin saw exactly that, and these wizards even played tricks more than ordinary people.
Zhang Xiao was suddenly happy, isn't this the difference between a sectarian family and a loose cultivator in Xianxia novels!
Putting the letter down, he picked up a second one.
The content of the letter was relatively simple and unimportant, the main thing was that Salazar Slytherin was excited to tell his friends that he had a brilliant idea and wanted to discuss it with his friends.
In addition to Godric, he also invited two other famous young wizards, who were also close friends.
Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.
It seems that this was before Hogwarts was founded, and the tragic encounter between the wild wizard and the wandering wizard gave Slytherin a vague idea, and his original idea may not have been to build a school.
But after discussing it with their friends, they finally made a decision that would eventually affect the entire wizarding world - to establish Hogwarts.
The reason why Hogwarts has such an important position is because the establishment of Hogwarts marks a new era in the wizarding world.
It put an end to the backward master-apprentice system, brought a complete and formal inheritance to those young wizards, and made the wizarding world develop extremely quickly.
In other words, it was Hogwarts that laid the foundations of the entire wizarding society it is today.
Zhang Xiao's eyes looked at the last letter in the wooden box.
The letter was exceptionally shabby, and there were far more traces of folding than the first two.
With curiosity, Zhang Xiao picked up the letter, and after reading it for a while, her brows couldn't help frowning.
As an aristocrat, Salazar Slytherin was well educated.
His letter is written smoothly and standardly, but this letter does not conform to his personality, and even the font is a little messy.
It seems that Slytherin was in a very agitated and even manic mood when he wrote this letter.
"Godric, no!
Absolutely not! Hogwarts can't continue to recruit Muggles!
I disagree!
Remember the ruins I told you about?
It's the ancient ruins I found last time, and I said we would explore together, but now you're obsessed with the little wizards' teaching activities.
I went on my own! The curses and traps inside cost me a lot of effort!
But the harvest is great!
I found something terrible inside, so terrible that until now, my body is still shaking, as if I was fished out of ice!
If my guess is correct, continuing to recruit Muggle wizards will cause us big trouble!
Why are you so stubborn?
I have never looked down on Muggles, and although I believe that knowledge should be limited, I also admit that Muggles produce talent.
They don't have family restrictions, and their imagination amazes me, but this time it's not a matter of concept!
Suddenly, there were large swaths of ink on the letter paper and the marks of the quill tip scratching hard.
Slytherin seems to be venting? He scribbled on the paper and vented his emotions.
Well, damn it! Godric, I know, I always know, you're stubborn like a rock!
It's like when the two of us are together, I always give in.
You've won, damn it, Godric, it's the worst thing I've ever done to know you!
She wouldn't stop recruiting Muggles, neither would Hufflepuff, and she even felt that all books should be open, even if they weren't Hogwarts students!
What was she thinking? Does she feel like all people are her children?
Is Ravenclaw just as stubborn, brilliant, and brilliantly intelligent? Ha! Didn't she know that stupid people could never wreak havoc.
And can a smart man easily destroy a city?
Well, Godric, I'm going to find a solution to the problem, to use the wisdom of the Slytherins, to solve the disaster I find.
If my method worked, I would no longer dispute the admission of Muggle students.
.......
I think you'll be interested in what I've discovered, right?
Don't dream, I'm going to carry these things myself! This is the pride of pureblood!
I, Salazar Slytherin, am destined to be the forerunner, the guide, and.... Savior!
Groove, groove, groove
Zhang Xiao couldn't help but hold her breath when she saw the back, the amount of information in this letter was simply amazing, Zhang Xiao only felt that her scalp was a little numb.
Headmaster Dumbledore, is this kind of thing really good for him to look at as a first-year wizard????
At the end of the letter was a note written by Professor Dumbledore.
"I hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to give you the third letter as well, and in fact I was very interested in the disaster that Slytherin mentioned.
But 1000 years have passed, and apparently the catastrophe mentioned by Salazar Slytherin did not happen, so I am more inclined that he was misled by something.
It's not something hard to imagine, because I wanted to do the same when I was younger.
So please treat the disaster as a harmless joke, apparently Slytherin himself had never discriminated against Muggles. ”
Well, the Headmaster was right, Slytherin himself did not discriminate against Muggles, on the contrary, he believed that Muggles were more creative than purebloods.
The reason he didn't agree to recruit Muggles was something he found in a ruin.
This led Slytherin to believe that recruiting Muggle students would lead to a catastrophe that would destroy the world........
Eh, Zhang Xiao couldn't help but complain when he thought of this, the tone of the end of the world, he couldn't say that he saw him every day in his previous life, but he was also an old student.
There is no market anymore, for example: the big ones are coming.......
Hogwarts has been recruiting Muggle students, and more and more, and if there is a disaster, it is estimated that it will happen long ago.
It's been 1,000 years, and the wizarding world is getting more and more prosperous.
It can only be said that Slytherin is very likely to have been deceived.
Aside from that, this third letter wasn't so scary, and it was important evidence that Slytherin didn't discriminate against Muggles.
Zhang Xiao was suddenly stunned.
He knew why Headmaster Dumbledore had given him these three letters.
"Maybe you'll go into Slytherin,
Maybe you'll make sincere friends here........"
The singing of the Sorting Hat resurfaced in his mind.
No pair of best friends can compare to Upper Slytherin and Gryffindor.
Slytherin, he has compassion, he will rescue those wizards who have been caught by the church.
He is wise and has a cool head, because he did not take himself to rescue those who are powerless.
Full of wisdom and vision, he proposed the establishment of Hogwarts.
He also upholds equality and acknowledges the excellence of Muggle wizards.
This is the real Slytherin! The Headmaster wanted him to know what the spirit of Slytherin was......
Zhang Xiao looked at the huge portrait of Slytherin in the common room.
Gryffindor's courage, Ravenclaw's wisdom, Hufflepuff's tolerance....
Actually, Slytherin has them all, but he doesn't have them all that extreme.
The purebloods, on the other hand, ignore the good qualities that Slytherin House should have, and only read out the unscrupulous and life-sparing.
Putting aside the leadership skills that really matter, and boasting of inheriting the spirit of Slytherin.
Zhang Xiao sneered for a while, if the Slytherin Spring had knowledge, I don't know if he would crawl out of the coffin to clean the portal.
A great leader.....
It turns out that this is the real .....
Slytherin!
————————————————————————
These two are a little hesitant to be released, I don't know if everyone can accept it, in fact, this letter is more suitable for the second and third grades, but I don't think Dumbledore will treat the protagonist as an 11-year-old wizard.
After the characters in the book are set up, they have their own souls, and the author can't completely control them, if they insist on operating, they will 'die'
Still ask for tickets as usual
1. Recommended ticket 2. Commuter pass
