Chapter 49: One word stirs up the world
When Fudge finally wrote an 'ultimatum' with a stern wording and a very strong warning meaning, he discovered a very embarrassing thing.
That is, he did not know how to send this 'ultimatum' to the Chinese Ministry of Magic.
Originally, there was a so-called Ministry of Magic on the other side of Xiangjiang, which was composed of Chinese who emigrated abroad during the Ming and Qing dynasties, and gradually multiplied and finally gathered together.
After all, in China, because of the creation of jade butterflies and the immortal ascension list, there are not many spirit sons, but not all of them can enter the Dao Gate.
But when they left the border, they came into contact with the Extraordinary Power Organization in other regions by chance.
There are always some lucky ones who will eventually walk in completely and become a part of it.
After hundreds of years of multiplication, coupled with the tireless colonization of British Muggles.
These people were deeply influenced by the British, so they modeled on the Ministry of Magic and established the (pseudo) Chinese Ministry of Magic in Xiangjiang.
In the records of Daomen, it was a great change unseen in 3,000 years, and the entire land of China was turbulent.
Daomen is exhausted when he calms down the chaos in various places, how can he care about the Chinese Ministry of Magic.
Don't underestimate this Ministry of Magic, once in the 19th century, the then leader surnamed Liu also participated in the election of the International Federation of Wizards.
It's just that when the Daomen finally came to their senses and destroyed the Dao system of Shinto and Onmyoji, they finally had time to pay attention to the surrounding environment.
Only then did I suddenly find out, eh? How am I 'represented'?
What is this Chinese Ministry of Magic?
Hurry up and change your name, you can change anything, the water of the word China is too deep, you can't grasp it.
After a 'cordial and friendly' exchange, the Chinese Ministry of Magic changed its name aggrievedly.
Became the Southeast Asian Federation of Chinese Magic (non-official organization).
As for the Daomen, as long as we guard our own country, it has nothing to do with us what happens outside.
But I am also of Chinese and Miao descent, so the Southeast Asian Magic Federation, with the support of Daomen, is known as the 'Little Overlord of Southeast Asia'.
The inside story is complicated, and even many people in the Dao Sect are still confused, let alone other countries.
In the eyes of the British Ministry of Magic, it was the once prosperous Chinese Ministry of Magic that suddenly disappeared.
Instead, an unofficial federation has emerged in Southeast Asia.
So the East. It must be weak, right?
To get back to the point, Fudge here is holding this 'ultimatum', scratching his head and not knowing how to send it.
Is there really a Ministry of Magic in the East?
Fudge had wanted to send this ultimatum through the Magic, but the Magician didn't think it was a big deal.
But I almost cried after seeing the content, and I didn't want to send anything.
In the end, Fudge had no choice but to find a pure-blood belonging to the camp of the East-West Trading Company and send this ultimatum over.
The pure-blood family who received the ultimatum did not dare to slack off, and they gave this to Lucius Malfoy, who was far away in China and had become the pure-blood core of the enlightened sect.
and then transferred by Lucius to Zhang Chengdao, although the process was very tortuous, but I have to say that the purpose was indeed achieved.
Zhang Chengdao, who was confused, glanced at the incomprehensible things and inexplicable cruel words on it, and then threw it aside after reading it.
Stopping the trade between the East and the West is not an end, but a means, and you have to let those purebloods know that they must stand up, devote themselves to it, and experience the fight before they can be eligible to enjoy this piece of fat.
And Zhang Chengdao is also ready to change the trading destination to Xiangjiang as his son said.
Let those Potions Masters and Alchemy Masters who want to try new materials follow.
If you really come up with something powerful, you might as well just intervene first, right?
Of course, all this has nothing to do with Zhang Xiao.
He didn't know how much of a storm he had brought to the already turbulent British wizarding world because of his fluttering 'stop trade'.
And Britain, as the core of the Western wizarding world, has influenced other countries.
At this moment, this little wizard who stirred up the world with his words is taking a third-grade magical beast protection class.
To be honest, although there was a little accident in the last Evil Woman, it was generally very interesting.
It's just that the evil woman bird, frightened by the explosion made by Seamus, doesn't think so.
It made up its mind and resolutely stopped singing, as if it thought that the only time it sang would cause a horrific explosion.
This frustrates Hagrid, causing everyone to take care of the very disgusting Flober caterpillar for several lessons.
Zhang Xiao thought that she could escape this catastrophe, but she didn't expect that the one who should have come came.
But today seems to be a little different.
Hagrid wore the moleskin coat that never seemed to have been changed, and the hound's fangs were at his feet, looking anxious to go.
"Come on, hurry up, hurry up!" He shouted, and by this time the students had approached.
Hagrid had a happy smile on his face:
"There's something good to treat you today! It's about to be a great lesson! Has everyone arrived? Okay, follow me!"
"Looks like we don't have to take care of the caterpillars anymore?"
Malfoy whispered, and Hermione, Harry, and Ron nodded in relief.
Zhang Xiao sighed, he was also fed up with those slimy caterpillars, and he also persuaded Hagrid.
But the effect was a little too good, and Hagrid immediately cheered up, and swore that he would definitely make a 'good' for Zhang and Harry who believed in him and encouraged him.
"Honestly, if I take care of those caterpillars like this, I don't even plan to take Hagrid's class."
Ron whispered, expecting his friends to think he wasn't righteous enough.
Unexpectedly, Harry and Malfoy's eyes flickered, and it seemed that they had already planned to do so.
Hermione sighed, she didn't think she would turn down any of the classes except for Professor Trelawney's divination class.
But now this idea is also beginning to waver under the power of the caterpillar.
There was a moment of suffocation, as everyone passed by the Flober Caterpillar farm.
They thought Hagrid was going to let them take care of the caterpillars again.
Fortunately, Hagrid was only led along the edge of the woods, and after five minutes they were already outside a paddock. There is nothing there.
"Everybody come up to this fence!"
Hagrid nodded his head condescendingly, and when he found that there were no inexplicable few people, he raised his hand and said loudly:
"Okay, you guys wait here, Zhang, help me watch them and don't let them go.
If anyone doesn't listen to Zhang, I'll let you take care of the caterpillar for a whole year, I know you're afraid of this! β
The fear of the caterpillar suppressed the suspicion that Hagrid seemed to be suddenly smarter.
Everyone was like the armor in the castle, just standing there and chatting quietly, guessing what Hagrid would get to the table.
After a while, Lavender Brown suddenly screamed, and she craned her neck, pointed at several figures walking slowly in the distance, and let out a loud scream.
Not only her, but many young wizards also marveled.
It's a bunch of weird-looking guys.
They have the body, hind legs, and tail of a horse, but their front legs, wings, and head appear to be those of an eagle, and they have a steel-colored beak and large bright orange eyes.
Hippogriff?
Zhang Xiao looked at these strange-looking but not ugly creatures in amazement.
Each beast had a thick feathered collar around its neck, and a long chain was tied to it, the ends of which were held in Hagrid's large hand, and he followed them as he jogged into the paddock.
He shook the chain and yelled at the guys to come to the fence where the class was standing.
As I know, the Hippogriff is a very polite creature.
The trick to approaching it is to bow, and if it returns the salute, then it means that it is willing to make contact with you.
Of course, Zhang Xiao chose the eagle-headed horse-body winged beast called Buckbeak.
Because of the limited number of people, everyone had to form their own groups.
So the four little ones only added Zhang Xiao, and everyone bowed to Buckbeak one by one.
Buckbeak was clearly one of the most intimate of the Hippogriffs, and he was the only one who returned the favor to everyone.
And willing to let everyone pat its sharp and sharp beak.
With Hagrid's encouragement, the group rode it around the sky.
Zhang Xiao silently compared the dragon riding in his heart, and then came to the conclusion that it was more comfortable for Noble to ride.
So he just had a taste of it and gave up all his time to the happy Malfoy and Ron and Hermione.
When Brother Xiao Ma came back from playing sweaty, his originally pale face was covered with excitement, and he sat next to Zhang Xiao and wiped his sweat.
"It's a very different flying experience from a broomstick, it's pretty cool! Zhang, you should really ride a few laps to feel a different kind of charm. β
Zhang Xiao looked at him with an indescribable gaze, and Malfoy looked down at himself inexplicably:
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? β
"Nothing, you like Buckbeak?"
"I like it!" Malfoy grinned, smiling very happily: "Zhang, don't you think that the Hippogriff is particularly in line with the concept of nobility?"
It's like a gentleman in Fantastic Beasts, elegant and personable, always making himself look very neat and polite.
Listening to the big man Hagrid, the Hippogriff has winged beasts and is particularly loyal, aren't these noble qualities what we want the 'new pure-blood nobles' to have?
I decided that when my father came back from China, I would have to convince him to keep a Hippogriff on the estate! β
Zhang Xiao was silent for a while, patted the inexplicable Malfoy, and laughed:
"It's good, it's better to raise Buckbeak!"
In the original book, Angry Barkbeak is an ugly monster, a brute, and a lowly creature.
Now when I talk about Buckbeak, there seems to be a light in my eyes.
Zhang Xiao couldn't help but laugh again, and Malfoy asked suspiciously:
"Why are you smiling again, I always feel that you are not quite right today."
"It's nothing" Zhang Xiao coughed lightly twice, and suddenly said:
"Dracoβ"
"Huh?"
"To be a great Slytherin!"
"You're really weird today. But that's for sure! β
Almost in the blink of an eye, the Christmas holidays are just around the corner.
Elsewhere in the castle, the usual splendid decorations for Christmas are done, although not many students stay in school each year.
But Hogwarts still decorated the castle with great pomp.
Thick bands of holly and mistletoe hung along the corridors, and each suit of armor shone with a mysterious light.
Twelve Christmas trees were placed in the auditorium as usual, and the trees were shining with golden stars. The hallway is filled with the strong, enticing aroma of cooking.
Zhang Xiao never imagined that one day, Christmas gifts would become a puzzle for herself.
Originally, the time to take a shower after a workout was my favorite time to relax.
Now it's all about how to give gifts for Christmas.
"Yes, Professor Snape." Zhang Xiao hid in the pool and spit bubbles.
Originally, I planned to send the professor a set of experimental equipment for middle school students, which was a beaker test tube or something.
But on second thought, isn't it better to send Professor Snape some Oriental materials than a beaker or something?
After all, just because of his own wool skills, doesn't it mean that Snape has what he has?
So the higher Professor Snape's skills, the better!
Well. So the hardest part was Professor Flitwick.
Since beating this short professor and getting Xiangyun, it seems that his life is complete.
fell into an open-minded mentality of no desire and no desire, smiling all day long.
By the way, Professor Flitwick seems to have nothing to do with a drink or two
Why don't you get some wine? Two boxes of Moutai?
Hey, it's so hard to give gifts!
Or the best Hufflepuff Professor Sprout, the chubby professor who threw himself on the 'ginseng doll'.
All you need to do is give her a copy of "Ginseng Cultivation Techniques".
The other professors don't care and don't need to.
Then the problem is Professor McGonagall!
Thanks to myself, the whole Hogwarts last semester was peaceful, and nothing bad happened.
Professor McGonagall had a rare chance of living Harry's pre-school life.
Although the little wizard is still mischievous, it is nothing more than a trivial matter in the eyes of Professor McGonagall, who has experienced the storm.
As long as there are no trolls, two-skinned faces, basilisks, no noses. That's nothing happening at Hogwarts.
A series of bubbles came out of Zhang Xiao's mouth and nose, but they were at the limit.
Alas, what did Professor McGonagall send?
Zhang Xiao took a shower and walked to the bedroom with a sad face.
The moving stone lion she gave me last time thought Professor McGonagall would like it, but she didn't recognize the cute stone statue in China as a lion.
Zhang Xiao lay on the soft bed and looked at the top of the curtain intently.
Professor McGonagall is an avid Quidditch enthusiast and is said to have been the best player in Gryffindor.
It was only an accident that he said goodbye to the court, but his love for Quidditch remained undiminished.
Or send a broom?
Zhang Xiao immediately rejected the idea, and if Professor McGonagall was young, it would be fine to send a broom.
But Minerva McGonagall, what broom hasn't you seen?
She was past the age of loving broomsticks, and she loved the tactical discipline, fighting spirit, and determination to never give up in Quidditch
So, in fact, Professor McGonagall also has a heart that yearns for freedom?
Zhang Xiao suddenly inexplicably thought of the meow meow happiness spell in his previous life - the stone pier is dispatched.
Maybe Professor McGonagall wasn't just as boring as one might have guessed?
So. How about I send a skybike?
Zhang Xiao pulled down the curtain and laughed.
Sleep, sleep
extinguished the light that illuminated the bed, Zhang Xiaogang wanted to get into the bed.
But I saw a bright spark suddenly appear in the curtain.
Then there was a flash of fire.
A note and a phoenix's tail feathers fluttered down from the sky.
Zhang Xiao frowned, reached out and pinched the note, snapping her fingers.
The light lit up again, and I saw that on it was Dumbledore's fluent calligraphy:
"I've found an important clue to another Horcrux."
