Chapter 41: The Golden Snitch
I rubbed it, it turned out to be this abacus, no wonder it would stand up and speak for me.
Then Ron also threw a tacit look at Chu Yang, and Harry just smiled shyly.
After everyone left, Neville rushed to Chu Yang, and there were still some tears on his fleshy face, "Chu Yang, you helped me again, I don't know how to thank you." ”
Chu Yang just wanted to say something polite, but Neville said embarrassedly: "If you can teach me how to fly, then I will thank you even more." ”
Chu Yang: "......"
Mrs. Hodge, who was returning to the school building to pick up her things, happened to bump into Professor McGonagall.
"Professor McGonagall, where are you going?"
"I was about to go to you, Lady Hodge."
Mrs. Hodge asked in surprise, "Is there anything wrong with me?" ”
Professor McGonagall couldn't wait to ask, "I noticed the flying lesson on the playground just now, what's going on with Chu Yang's weird flying posture?" Is it your latest invention? ”
Mrs. Huo Qi hurriedly waved her hand and denied: "It was an accident, caused by Chu Yang accidentally. ”
Professor McGonagall shook her head and said, "I think he flies well in the sky, and the broomstick is very skillfully controlled by him, not like a simple accident." ”
Mrs. Hodge hesitated for a moment and chuckled: "Maybe it's because of his talent, some people are like this, the broomstick is like a part of their body in their hands, and they can use it very naturally without deliberately learning it." ”
Professor McGonagall agrees.
But she felt that Chu Yang was still a more special existence than those examples, after all, Chu Yang had already shown many unusual traits before.
Half an hour later, Mrs. Hooch returned with a suitcase, followed by Professor McGonagall, but Professor McGonagall did not say anything, but stood by and watched Mrs. Hooch's teaching.
Mrs. Hodge enjoyed the atmosphere at the beginning of the lesson, with curiosity and desire, but as the lesson continued, many people gave up.
There's a threshold for learning to fly.
To fly well, it takes a lot of talent and time.
Wizards nowadays don't waste too much energy on the Broomstick, after all, it's not as easy to use as Floo Powder, and it's not as fast and convenient as Phantom Shifter.
As a means of transportation that has been eliminated from the wizarding world, if it weren't for the prevalence of Quidditch matches, the broomstick would have been swept into the dustbin of history by time.
Once everyone had gotten the hang of it, Mrs. Hooch was ready to release the Golden Snitch and remind the students that they could try to retrieve it later.
Except for those who had never watched a single game, such as Hermione and Harry, the other students were extremely excited, including Ron and Neville.
Who hasn't dreamed of being a Seeker when they were young?
Although this is not an official competition, it is the closest young wizards have come to their dreams.
That's why everyone is so excited.
But then the style of painting becomes very strange......
A group of freshmen stepped on their flying broomsticks, their faces full of anticipation, and their mouths shouted "Get up!" Rise! Rise! ”
As a result, the flying broom got up, but it threw everyone into pieces, without exception.
That's when everyone realized how difficult it is to stand on a broomstick and keep your balance!
"It's amazing that you can stand on it and fly!" Lavender Brown got up from the grass with his butt covered, looked at Chu Yang with a sad face, and kept muttering in his mouth.
"What special training did you go through? Or you've worked in a circus before! Dean Thomas couldn't understand it, and looked blankly at the broom in his hand.
"Hey! I don't believe you'll be able to fly a second time, you'll fall off the broom like we did! The brutal and willful Pansy Parkinson taunted Chu Yang directly.
The Big Three and Neville also fell heavily to the ground like the others, and Ron even rolled all the way to Chu Yang's footsteps, and the moment the two looked at each other, embarrassment spread in the air.
Chu Yang coughed dryly, then stepped on the broomstick, and everyone focused their eyes on him, while Madame Hodge and Professor McGonagall stared at the broomstick at his feet, feeling the magic fluctuations coming from above.
The broom slowly floated in the air, and Chu Yang stood on it steadily, with no signs of falling at all.
"He succeeded!" Daphne screamed in surprise, and was quickly covered by Pansy, who looked at her angrily.
"Mr. Chu Yang, how did you do it?" Mrs. Hooch and Professor McGonagall stepped forward, shocked and confused.
Chu Yang explained: "Maybe it's because I have a good sense of balance, and I don't think it's hard to stand on a broom. ”
Mrs. Huo Qi looked at the flying broom that Chu Yang was stepping on suspiciously, and then threw her broom at her feet, planning to try it too.
In the next second, she stumbled and fell off the broom, decisively dispelling this thought, which was not a posture that ordinary people could try.
Mrs. Hooch shook her head at the equally curious Professor McGonagall, who had a faint look of disappointment on her face.
Mrs. Huo Qi reminded the students in a mocking tone, "It is better for everyone to choose a regular posture, and it seems that it has become Mr. Chu Yang's prerogative to stand on a broom and fly." ”
After seeing Chu Yang's special flying posture, he changed back to the regular posture, which more or less made the first-year freshmen feel a little uncomfortable.
But you can't help it, only those who have tried it know how hard it is, not only do you have to keep your balance, but you also have to keep track of the effect of your magic on your broomstick.
Mana is a part of the body, and if the body cannot be kept in a stable state, mana will naturally be affected.
After changing to a regular position, the moment Harry mounted the broomstick, he flew smoothly and circled in mid-air with ease.
"Whoever catches this golden snitch, I'll give it to him as a souvenir!" Mrs. Hodge unleashed the Golden Snitch and made a promise!
With a whoosh, Harry rushed out, leaving an afterimage in the air as fast as he could.
At the same time, Chu Yang also rushed out!
Get right behind Harry and chase the Golden Snitch!
Chu Yang didn't care too much about whether he could catch this gadget, he just wanted to try how fast he could fly like this.
While the other classmates were still barely floating in the air, the two had already begun a fierce chase battle against the Golden Snitch.
Whether it was Harry or Chu Yang, they were all very skilled in flying over Hogwarts, not at all like novices who were trying to fly for the first time.
Professor McGonagall, who was about to leave, was a little excited, as the head of Gryffindor, her eyes were on Harry most of the time.
Gryffindor was short of a good Seeker, and Harry looked like he had a lot of potential.
