Chapter 41: Clichés
Because of the hangover, Professor Snape silently gave Zhang Xiao a fake note and told him to rest well in the dormitory.
So if Professor Snape wasn't so arrogant, Harry would have to take his last name.
Lying on the soft bed, Zhang Xiao desperately recalled the events of last night.
In addition to drinking barrels of wine with Hagrid, there is also a barbecue and finally flying into the sky on a dragon, and then what?
Did I fly with someone else? What planes? Did you win?
Wait a minute, it seems like there is such a thing, I am riding on Noble, and there is a sonic boom cloud next to me??
Sleeping, Zhang Xiao got up from the bed and knocked his head desperately.
Just kidding, with Noble's flapping structure, it can fly at the speed of sound? It can fly up to 300 kilometers per hour, which is considered fast!
But what about my memory? This kind of first-person sonic boom cloud is definitely the first time I've seen it, so real. After a 'bang', there was a quiet silence between heaven and earth.
Impossible, impossible, definitely an illusion!
If I really exceeded the speed of sound, I would have been burned to ashes a long time ago, right? Plus the load.
Just like all the people who are splintered are very curious about what happened during the splinter, Zhang Xiao now wants to know what he did when he broke it.
Unfortunately, Noble couldn't speak, and after resting for a while, he remembered Dumbledore's punishment and felt that he was not in good shape, so he simply got up from the bed, found the bucket and mop, and came to the corridor outside the common room in Slytherin
Although no one supervises, Zhang Xiao does not intend to use magic secretly, and many times it seems that playing clever seems to be a temporary gain, but it loses something more important.
But he didn't plan to do it stupidly the whole time, and he would do whatever Filch did.
Filch's bucket is a magic bucket, which seems to be small, but when the water inside is used up, it will be renewed, in fact, it is a constant clear water like a spring spell.
His mop is not an ordinary mop, but semi-automatic, as long as it is placed on the ground, it will rotate quickly and rub the ground hard.
It doesn't take much effort, just walk to the side with the mop, and the ground will be as bright as new, and with all the magic stain removers, it's generally very relaxing.
This is one of the reasons why Filch is reluctant to leave Hogwarts, as he is reluctant to enchant.
I have to say that cleaning is sometimes a very exciting thing, and watching the originally dirty floor become as smooth as new again with your own efforts, it will fill your heart with a special sense of satisfaction.
At that moment, there was a low commotion, like a swarm of bees buzzing, leading the students to laugh and laugh happily, and then the Slytherin students rushed up the stairs in a jostle and a jostle.
When the people in front saw Zhang Xiao holding the mop, the lively and chattering sound suddenly disappeared, and Zhang Xiao looked at them with an unkind face.
I've just finished dragging it out, and I'm not doing it in vain with hundreds of your feet?
Malfoy squeezed out of the crowd and asked in surprise:
"Zhang, why are you here? Why mopping? Professor Snape said you weren't comfortable resting in your dorm, and I brought you something to eat! ”
As he spoke, he raised the paper bag in his hand and shook it.
Zhang Xiao took the paper bag with a bitter face, in fact, he was not hungry at all, but this was Brother Tu's intention, whether he ate it or not, he still had to take it after all.
"Don't mention it, punished by the headmaster, cleaning this corridor 3 times a week until Filch recovers from petrification."
Malfoy raised his eyebrows, stepped forward and took the mop in Zhang Xiao's hand, and said lightly
"It's easy, I'll clean it up for you, soon."
A few more young wizards also squeezed out of the crowd and shouted:
"Zhang, we'll help you!"
Zhang Xiao was very relieved that this year's work was not in vain! Finally, this group of little wizards still knows that they feel sorry for the boss!
waved his hand and refused their help, punishment, some can help, some don't, this is obviously Dumbledore wants to sharpen his temperament.
If he finds someone to help, he may be able to come up with some ideas, and Zhang Xiao thinks it's good to mop the floor, just empty his head.
A small wizard in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Zhang, they all said that you rode a dragon to fly around last night, is it true?" ”
Is this the news leaked? Only a fool admits it, if he really admits it, this group of little wizards must not annoy him to death? Noisy every day to ride a dragon?
Zhang Xiaogang wanted to deny it, but heard the little wizard say, "That's what Draco said, he said that this is secret news, and the professors know it!" ”
Malfoy?
Zhang Xiao immediately turned around, only to see that Brother Tu was tilting his head, turning his head to the side and whistling.
Okay, I said why are you so diligent to help me do it, it turned out to be the news that your kid leaked.
said that this was done, and in order to drag his brother's face, Zhang Xiao had no choice but to say.
"That's right, but this is what Headmaster Dumbledore asked me to keep secret, and I can't say more."
All the little wizards' eyes sparkled as if they were shining, and they let out an exclamation in unison:
"Wow! Cruel! ”
At this moment, those extreme pure-bloods who were standing aside with their faces and arms in their arms suddenly couldn't help but snort coldly, as if they were very unaccustomed to Zhang Xiao's appearance of being in the limelight.
They walked on the shiny bottom plate together, and when they passed by Zhang Xiao, they deliberately rubbed their feet on the ground, and some even stomped twice, with a bad smile on their faces.
"Sorry to get the floor dirty, but I'm going back to the common room to rest."
Zhang Xiao was a little stunned, no, don't these purebloods have a long memory? Or is there something serious about the brain?
Think you won't get beaten if you pretend to walk normally? Are you walking normally?
Malfoy's face turned cold, he could understand these pure-blooded brain circuits.
If he had followed his previous temper and had wiped the floor, he would have gone up and stepped on it on purpose.
"Maybe they think you're afraid to do it because you're being punished and they're 'walking normally,'" he whispered.
ZHANG Xiao:.
With a slight hook of his fingers, the wand hanging from his waist immediately jumped out of the bag and fell into the palm of his hand.
Before he could pronounce the incantation or make any movements, someone in the crowd couldn't help but draw their wands and chant out loud a small evil spell at them.
With one person taking the lead, more people reacted, and they drew their wands and chanted their best spells.
Colorful spells rained down on the group of happy purebloods, and before they could react, they were hit by several spells.
Various spells with strange effects come together to create a wonderful chemical reaction.
The unfortunate one even fell under all the little curses, and his hair seemed to have a mind of its own, and danced away from their heads, leaving behind a head that looked like a polished one, and the two front teeth grew until the upper lip could no longer cover it.
At the same time, he let out an uncontrollable laugh, clapped his hands, and tapped his feet.
In a difficult posture that ordinary people can't do at all, he disappeared at the end of the corridor with a whirlpool.
Zhang Xiao shook his head, these purebloods are not saved, but think about it, if he could see the situation clearly, he would have already stood on his side, not like a harlequin, always thinking about disgusting you twice.
They can't even understand why they are isolated by everyone, and they still stubbornly think that they are quite good at dreaming when they live in the environment of looking up and fearing in the past.
The wand danced lightly on the tips of his fingers, and he raised his wand and waved it widely, only to see the Slytherin students who had been hit by many small curses floating from the ground, and then he flicked his wand again, and the pure-blood students flew directly out of the hall of the porch like broken sacks.
Zhang Xiao raised it, nodded at these extremely pure-blood positions, shook his head and said, "Who is going to inform Madam Pomfrey?" Let's just say that some students had an accident while experimenting with spells and made themselves look like this. ”
However, looking at the many scattered footprints on the originally smooth and new floor, Zhang Xiao is still a little uncomfortable, and people who usually don't do hygiene look like this.
Once in a while, it will temporarily become a cleanliness habit, and you will get angry when you see someone soiling the house you have worked so hard to clean.
But no matter how clean it is, as long as someone passes by, there will always be more footprints.
In the end, it was a little wizard who reminded him.
The meaning of cleaning is to turn the dirty into clean, and if it is clean all the time, then cleaning will be meaningless.
As time passed, more and more young wizards learned about Zhang Xiao's story of flying out of Hogwarts on a Norwegian ridgeback dragon at night.
They approached Zhang Xiao in droves, excitedly asking how to ride a dragon or if there was a way to lend Noble from Hagrid.
Even Harry and Ron quietly approached him, complaining that he wasn't buddies enough, and that they didn't call them together for such a cool thing as dragon riding, but they also grew up watching Noble.
Hermione was holding a thick list of the Ministry of Magic's list of dangerous magical beasts.
Pointing to the terrifying description of the dragon above to try to persuade Zhang Xiao not to do such a dangerous thing.
But when Zhang Xiao asked her if she wanted to ride the dragon together next time, the little witch immediately forgot the list in her hand, her little face flushed, and she asked what it was like to fly on a dragon in an excited and longing tone.
It can only be said. O woman.
During this period, Zhang Xiao also went to Hagrid's place, and the big man was very happy now, because Noble could finally appear in front of people in front of people.
No longer had to hide it in a small wooden box whenever someone came by, as he used to do.
Hagrid wiped his tears and choked up, "Great, Noble is a good boy, he finally doesn't have to hide, it must be hard to stay in a black box, right?" ”
The little dragon was lying on his big furry head, and with his paws and mouth he had made something like a chicken nest in Hagrid's hair, and lay down comfortably in it, as if it had been a new nest.
In addition to Zhang Xiao's coming to hand over the special dragon breeding license to Hai, another important thing is to measure the size of Noble.
Because my dad said that if you want to ride a dragon, it's best to customize a pair of saddles.
In this way, it is more comfortable to mention, not tired of sitting for a long time, and it also has a more knightly feeling.
What else can Zhang Xiao say besides happily agreeing?
"Dad, aren't you worried or angry about my dragon riding?"
Zhang Chengdao smiled and asked rhetorically, "Why worry? Why be angry?
Although the dragon is indeed a terrifying creature.
But as long as no one is hurt and safety can be ensured, no one can say, there are many spirit beasts in the predecessors of the Daomen who are far more terrifying and ferocious than the dragon!
What's more, at your age, I've been riding the Tiger Demon of Zhenshan everywhere, and it's much more powerful than the thing you ride.
The mountain monarch has a title! ”
But in the end, Zhang Chengdao also repeatedly warned and reminded his son that he must be careful not to let Noble hurt anyone.
As the days passed, the students seemed to forget about the attack on Filch, and they didn't feel any danger lurking in the school.
But Zhang Xiao is different, the matter of the basilisk is like a needle piercing his heart.
He would always find time to sneak a peek into the bathroom on the third floor, but everything was normal there, and there was no movement at all.
Also vigilant with Zhang Xiao are the professors, who are not little wizards who don't know anything.
It would take a terrible amount of dark magic to petrify Filch, and even many professors can't do it, and they take the trouble to lead the young wizards to and from the common room every day. Conscientiously fulfill their duties.
Zhang Xiao, who was becoming more and more uneasy, became more and more desperate to get Harry's Parseltongue out.
Finally, one afternoon, he found his chance.
It was a sunny afternoon, the sun was warm and warm, and Zhang Xiao pulled Malfoy, and Hermione Ron Harry, to sit by the grove by the Black Lake, looking out at the mountains in the distance, chatting.
After everyone talked about some interesting things that happened recently, Zhang Xiao finally pretended to be casual and led the topic to the direction he wanted.
"Guys, did you all show your incredible talent before you went to Hogwarts?"
Malfoy nodded proudly, his chest straight: "Of course, I am a rare genius in the Malfoy family, and I could fly around on the lawn of the manor as early as the age of three."
Ron scoffed, "Could it be your dad hiding behind and teasing you with his wand?" ”
Malfoy was furious, a faint flush appeared on his pale face, he jumped up from the ground and pointed at Ron and shouted, "Weasley, I've put up with you for a long time!"
Don't forget that we still have an account to settle with. If you still agree that you have Weasley blood in your veins, let's continue the unfinished battle of our fathers! ”
Ron also jumped up, blushing, and the two little wizards were not to be outdone and fought each other while picking a suitable place to be the battlefield for the 'duel'.
The remaining three looked helplessly at the backs of the two in the distance, and they must have thrown away their wands and hugged each other in the end anyway. There's no mess.
"Hermione, how did you find out that something was out of the ordinary?"
Hermione's little face flushed, "I was always very fond of books when I was a kid, and they all called me a nerd.
Once, when a classmate hid my book, I was so sad that I couldn't find the book, and I cried out in a hurry.
But in the blink of an eye, I noticed that the book appeared in front of me, and it flew out of another girl's bag.
The book dragged her straight from the bathroom to me and rushed to me. She didn't even put her pants on!
Zhang Xiao and Harry imagined the scene for a moment, and couldn't help but laugh narrowly.
Hermione patted them in annoyance, and said a little disappointed, "My parents transferred me to another school after this happened.
I always thought something was wrong with me until I received an acceptance letter from Hogwarts. ”
As she spoke, her expression became sunny again, and she said a little shyly:
"And then, I met you all right here, and I have really good friends!"
After finishing speaking, she and Harry looked at Zhang Xiao together and asked curiously, "Zhang, your strength is so strong, and your studies are so good, you must have been able to perform a lot of magical magic when you were young, right?" ”
Zhang Xiao shrugged: "Maybe I've disappointed you, in fact, I didn't show any magical talent before I entered Hogwarts, and I even thought I was an ordinary person all along. ”
"What? You haven't shown any magical talent? ”
Harry couldn't help but ask, stunned.
Zhang Xiao nodded, indicating that she was not lying.
Hermione poked her chin with her index finger, frowned slightly, and said slowly: "
I remember reading it in a book.
The little wizards' magical talents are revealed by their emotional agitation.
Harry, do you remember what Neville said? He didn't show any talent for magic, and he even thought he was a squib all the time!
His uncles and uncles even threw him into the water in order to force him to show his magical talents, hoping to stimulate him with danger, and his uncle accidentally threw him off the stairs
Perhaps, Zhang didn't show his talent because he didn't have any excitement all the time? ”
Zhang Xiao nodded approvingly, "You're right, Hermione."
In fact, I was emotionally calm until I went to school. ”
In fact, I have long speculated about this problem.
Magic is actually based on cognition, and before receiving the notification from Hogwarts, I didn't actually know that I was in a magical society, and I subconsciously didn't believe in the existence of magic.
In addition, there is really not enough excitement, and of course there will be no magical talent to show.
Zhang Xiao set her eyes on Harry, the main person of this conversation.
"What about you? Harry, what interesting things have happened to you? ”
Harry sat on the floor, legs slightly apart, and put his hands on his knees.
With a happy smile on his face, he enjoyed the atmosphere of chatting with his friends, because Dali didn't even have any friends at school, and it was because of the many strange things that happened to him that many of his classmates called him a freak.
Harry thought for a moment and said, "The most frequent occurrence is probably my hair!" ”
He pulled his messy hair.
"My hair has always been like this, and Aunt Petunia was so disgusted that she even shaved me bald!
But when I woke up the next day, I found that my hair was back to normal.
Hermione couldn't help but look at her with envy, she wanted this talent too.
Harry was indulging in the atmosphere of this talk, thought for a moment and then continued, "Another time Dudley chased me, and he was about to catch up, and when I came to my senses, I was sitting on the highest chimney in the school, guys! It was more than ten meters above the ground, and I was so scared that my legs went limp.
Hermione's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly and loudly, "Wow!
Harry, you must be very talented, I've seen it in the books! The more deliberate young wizards show when they are younger, the stronger their magical talent becomes!
Zhang Xiao agreed:
"That's right!"
Hermione was right, as strong as Voldemort and Dumbledore, or even Snape and Lily, who could even consciously manipulate what should have been an instinctive riot in their childhood.
But Snape and Lily were a big cut behind the Falling Devil. While Tom's other places are not good to comment on, there is no doubt that his talent is first-class strong!
Harry said happily, "Really? Is it true that the more times you show it, the stronger your talent? ”
With Zhang Xiao and Hermione's encouragement, Harry became more and more excited, and he immediately continued:
"And one more fun thing, guys!
When I was 10 years old, I followed the Dali family to the zoo, and you know what happened?
I locked Dalí in the glass! A python was also released. What's more, I even talked to him! ”
After that, Harry looked at his two friends expectantly, hoping to get their praise again, this was showing two talents at once!
Hermione was stunned for a moment, then her face turned pale.
Zhang Xiao sighed silently. It's not easy to finally set it out!
Because my hand hurts a little, I tried the voice input method, and the speed is really fast, but the things written lack a sense of hierarchy, and I always feel weird.
What's even worse is that the code word is one hour and two hours to modify, so some friends will be confused when they read it, just refresh it.
Tomorrow or continue to play by hand.,Can't use this broken input method.
