Chinese students at Hogwarts

Zhang Xiao shook his academic robe, but did not refuse, and came to Lu Ping neatly.

The little wizard couldn't help but stretched his head forward and stared, for fear of missing any details.

Lu Ping smiled and shook his head:

"Don't you think I'm going to have a battle with Zhang?"

Many little wizards showed smiles that revealed their little thoughts.

"Although I have been traveling outside these years, I still read the newspaper. According to my chats with other professors, Zhang's learning progress has far exceeded the level of third grade.

Therefore, Zhang’s level has no reference value and does not represent your true level. "

The little wizard sighed. What Professor Luping said was absolutely correct, but if the professor knew so well, why did he keep talking about it?

"Okay, time is precious, let's get started -" Professor Luping paused and asked the first question: "Zhang, how do you understand Defense Against the Dark Arts?"

Um? Zhang Xiao was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Professor Lu Ping to ask this question.

Not only Zhang Xiao, but other young wizards also started to communicate in low voices. This course has been taking for more than two years, and no one seems to have thought about what Defense Against Dark Arts is.

Everyone just opened the book step by step and recorded some things, such as the characteristics and counter-spells of some common black magic, that's all.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiao said slowly:

"Professor, I think that in addition to those dark creatures, we should also have a sufficient understanding of dark magic.

And be able to use some counterspells. "

As he spoke, Zhang Xiao suddenly fell silent, because he found that he seemed to have neglected this subject and had never taken it seriously. Defense against black magic was never a simple concept.

It is complex and requires a variety of knowledge.

No, it should be said that Defense Against the Dark Arts is the culmination of all other courses.

Herbs, Charms, Magical Beasts, Transfiguration. Defense Against the Dark Arts will use every course you learn.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xiao continued to say under Lu Ping's gaze:

“Defence Against the Dark Arts is not just a simple course, it is complex and requires you to pay enough attention to other courses.

Dark wizards don't just hold a wand and cast spells, poisons, curses, dark creatures on you."

The little wizards listened quietly. Like Zhang Xiao, they had never looked at this course from a higher perspective.

Two consecutive unreliable teachers made them full of negative emotions towards Defense Against the Dark Arts, and they even secretly said that it was one of the most useless courses.

Just kidding, if this class is not important, how could Voldemort want to return to school and be the teacher of this class?

Lu Ping's eyebrows raised. He didn't expect the little wizard to think about this. He immediately changed his posture, lowered his arms, looked at Zhang Xiao intently and seriously, and encouraged him to continue.

Zhang Xiao stopped again. From Lu Ping's perspective, this little wizard who was well-known in school and even in the British wizarding community first frowned, as if he thought of something again.

Then his eyebrows slowly raised, showing an expression of realization.

Finally, I couldn't help but smile.

"Professor, I think-" Zhang Xiao said seriously: "In addition to passive defense, we can also choose to attack.

Offense is one of the best defenses.

When encountering a dark wizard but unable to escape, it is better to attack than to passively defend and wait. "

Lupine also laughed and clapped vigorously, as did the young wizards, especially those with more flexible minds, such as Hermione and Malfoy, who completely understood what Zhang Xiao said.

The entire classroom was filled with warm applause, Harry clapped his hands excitedly, and Ron asked softly:

"Man, do you understand what Zhang said?"

"Of course!" Harry looked at him in surprise, still clapping vigorously with both hands: "Offense is the best defense, kill the dark wizards when you see them!"

Malfoy's eyes almost rolled to the sky. After Zhang said so much, you heard the last sentence, right?

Is this what Potter heard?

Zhang: Abba, Abba, Abba, Abba, kill them!

Hermione pursed her lips and said excitedly:

"What are you talking about? The important thing is obviously the front. It turns out that Defense Against the Dark Arts is so important. Oh my god, why didn't I think about it before?"

Ron asked pitifully:

"Hermione, what does Zhang mean? Isn't that the Defense Against the Dark Arts book?"

He pointed to the textbook "Dark Powers - Defense Guide" placed aside.

Hermione suddenly didn't want to talk to Ron.

She sat upright with a straight face and stared at the two people in front of the podium seriously, wanting to see what else to say next.

After the classroom finally calmed down, Lu Ping said with satisfaction:

"Slytherin adds 20 points to praise Zhang's insights."

He signaled that he could return to his seat. He originally planned to sneak attack Zhang and show everyone what a dark wizard was.

But Zhang Xiao's answer made him very satisfied. This clear understanding should not be reminded by surprise.

Professor Luping looked at the little wizard and said seriously:

"Once upon a time, when I was in school, I just thought that Defense Against the Dark Arts meant mastering counter-spells and knowing those dark creatures.

It wasn't until I actually faced the dark wizard that I realized how shallow my original ideas were. Faced with a crazy enemy who would do whatever it takes, all we can do is try our best to defeat him.

As Zhang Xiao said, every knowledge point you learn in other courses may save your life in the future. "

Lu Ping suddenly smiled:

"Of course, if you defeat the dark wizard immediately when you face him, it is of course the best choice, because then you don't have to face the machinations of those dark wizards."

A little wizard raised his hand and asked loudly:

"Professor Lupin, have you ever defeated a dark wizard?"

"Of course, there is more than one. In fact, I have been to most of the places where dark wizards gather, and I have also faced extremely vicious dark wizards. It was caution and caution that allowed me to survive."

"Wow--" The little wizards immediately turned into starry eyes, looking at the old-fashioned Lupine in front of them with admiration. They originally thought those patches looked very shabby.

But now it feels full of stories.

He had to travel around the world and go to the gathering places of dark wizards. Where would he have time to make money? The little wizard immediately found a very reasonable excuse for the new professor.

Lupine clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, took out his wand and wrote several categories on the blackboard.

"Dark animals, dark magic items, dark magic, dark plants."

"In general, our common black magic can be found in these four categories, among which black magic items are the most concealed, unless you use special detection spells or are familiar enough with the aura of black magic.

It's easy to fall for it.

There was once a wizard who opened a book, and then his face was attracted to the book, just because the book was disguised as "The Tales of Beedle the Bard".

There was also a wizard who believed in a talking skull and created a magic potion that was said to increase strength. As a result, after drinking it, he became a new skull, which was a very powerful curse.

Only by coaxing the next person to become a skull can you gain relief. "

The little wizard couldn't help but trembled, and Ron said in horror:

"That was my favorite book when I was a kid. If it were given to me, I would definitely fall for it."

"What is that? Ron" Harry asked quietly.

"A fairy tale book for wizards. When I was a child, my mother often read the stories in it to put me to sleep."

Harry and Hermione had the idea of ​​borrowing this book at the same time. A fairy tale book for wizards? Isn't that interesting?

Lu Ping ignored the noisy voice of the little wizard below, but continued to say seriously:

"As for dark magic items, I have a piece of advice to tell you here - if you don't see clearly where its brain is hidden, never trust what you think."

Zhang Xiao raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised. This sentence was very familiar. It seemed that Mr. Weasley had said it?

Hermione immediately recited a few words silently, looking at her as if she wanted to engrave these words in her heart.

In the following time, Lu Ping mainly told everyone about some of the experiences he had encountered and how to survive the crisis safely.

But with Lockhart's previous experience in mind, the young wizard cautiously chose to be dubious.

But when Hermione asked a few very key questions and details, Professor Lupine answered them, instead of being evasive and talking about him like Lockhart.

Now the little wizards were finally sure that they had a real teacher. Listening to those thrilling experiences made them excited, and they wished they could dive into the Defense Against the Dark Arts class now.

When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, the little wizard realized that time had passed so quickly, and they reluctantly said goodbye to Professor Lupine.

They also discussed with each other how great the professor was. Of course, Zhang Xiao's remarks about how he viewed the Defense Against Dark Arts class also spread, which caused another small discussion.

But by noon, the school's hot spot was quickly replaced by another thing.

That's Hogsmeade.

The entire third grade students and above are discussing how to go to Hogsmeade. Some little wizards who have gone to Hogsmeade with their parents have become everyone's stars.

Everyone gathered around him and couldn't wait to ask for all the news about Hogsmeade. It was obvious that everyone was looking forward to it.

Those first-grade kids and second-grade students could only bite their spoons and watch eagerly, but they pricked up their ears and refused to miss a single bit of the conversation.

His expression was confused, and he was obviously full of yearning for Hogsmeade.

"Hogsmeade," Brother Drag said in a long tone, pretending to be casual: "Yes, I go there often. My dad took me there many times before going to school."

As Slytherin's conspicuous person, how could Malfoy miss this opportunity? He tried hard to act like he knew Hogsmeade well.

"Devis-Bans, the Magic Equipment Store, Zuko's Joke Shop, and the Post Office."

"Post office? Draco, what's so interesting about the post office?" a little wizard asked.

Malfoy glanced at him, opened his hand and made a big gesture:

“There were almost two hundred owls there, all squatting on shelves, all color-coded, depending on how fast you wanted your letter to go!

Have you seen it? "

"Oh——!" the little wizard exclaimed neatly. There are already a lot of owls in Hogwarts, but only about a hundred. Magic owls are expensive, and not every little wizard has his own. Owl's.

In other words, it is rare to have a very beautiful snowy owl like Harry.

To give an example, an owl is like a mobile phone. Harry’s is the latest Pro Max model, while most people’s owl is just a basic model. Arthur’s old owl is an old model, and Ron’s piggy is. It’s the mini model.

As for Zhang Xiao, that’s awesome, he directly uses a satellite phone (telescope)

Malfoy suddenly smacked his lips and said with a very nostalgic look:

"If you ask me, the most popular place to visit in Hogsmeade is the Three Broomsticks. There is a drink called butterbeer there. It is very delicious. I have to drink a glass of it every time I go there."

The little wizards exclaimed again.

Zhang Xiao heard about the Three Broomsticks Bar and was suddenly reminded of memories. Hmm - not good memories. For example, the boss (mother) in the game who looks female but speaks in a male voice?

Time flies so fast, the last class on Friday is herbal medicine class, and the chubby Professor Sprout is introducing fresh herbs to everyone.

This is a relatively rare magic plant. It is the main raw material for making 'White Fresh Essence'. It is extremely effective in healing wounds. Even if it is used directly, it has a good healing effect on superficial wounds.

A mixture of white fresh powder and silver powder can also treat werewolf bites.

"Children, do you all remember what I just said?"

Professor Sprout asked loudly while holding a basin of fresh vegetables.

She received a sparse response, and she sighed, not surprised by the result:

"I know that everyone is looking forward to Hogsmeade, but the courses are also very important." Professor Sprout said with a face: "Especially Bai Xian, it is the focus of the exam, whether it is an ordinary wizard level The test is still the ultimate wizard test.

Bai Xian will be listed as a required test question. If anyone does not complete today's homework well, I'm afraid I will have to keep him here over the weekend to review with me.

Yes, you are right, it means saying goodbye to Hogsmeade! "

The little wizards' eyes suddenly widened in horror, as if they couldn't believe that the kind Professor Sprout would actually impose such a 'serious' punishment.

Classroom discipline changes at an extremely fast speed. They listen carefully to every word the professor says, for fear that they will be left behind.

Sprout nodded with satisfaction.

The method Minerva taught me seems to be particularly useful.

When I caught up, I asked why there was a power outage.

Principal Dumbledore must have played a little joke on me before leaving and used the deluminator to suck out the light.
