Journey through the heavens from Hogwarts

Chapter 8 The Ravenclaw Lounge

At this time, the headmaster Albus Dumbledore stood up. He looked at the students with a smile on his face and stretched out his arms to them. It seemed that nothing was happier than seeing his students, except of course Tom!

"Hello everyone! Welcome everyone to Hogwarts to start the new school year! Before the banquet begins, I want to say a few words, that is: Idiot! Crying nose! Residue! Screw it!"

"Thank you everyone!" After saying this, he sat down again, and the students next to him also clapped and cheered.

It’s time for the dinner party that Lin Xiao was looking forward to. After all, in the big world, food is the most important thing for people. No matter what species it is, they will first consider whether this is edible!

The characteristics of British cuisine can be described in one word, simple.There are only two ways to make it: bake it in the oven, or cook it in a pot, and add the seasonings according to your preference.

But the house elves in Hogwarts are still qualified, at least better than those in the Muggle world!

Lin Xiao looked at the plates in front of him that were filled with food. On the table were: roast beef, roast turkey, pork chops, lamb chops, sausages, steaks, boiled potatoes, baked potatoes, potato chips, Yorkies Summer pudding, pea shoots, carrots, gravy, ketchup, and mint candies, but thankfully no cockroaches.

To be honest, if this happened every day, he would vomit. He had decided to go to the cafeteria to discuss the dishes of the Great Celestial Dynasty with the house elves in the cafeteria anyway.

Lin Xiao took a piece of steak, dipped it in gravy and some tomato sauce, and ate it with the knife and fork in his hand.After a while, after everyone had eaten and drank enough, the food in front of them suddenly disappeared, and the plates, knives and forks became as clean as ever.Instead, there are various flavors of ice cream, such as apple pie, jam cake, chocolate sponge cake, fried jam donuts, wine-soaked jam pudding, strawberry, jelly, rice pudding...

After taking some desserts, I watched the little wizards next to me chatting animatedly and then started eating on my own.

Suddenly there was an exclamation in my ears. I looked up and saw the almost headless Nick holding his head in his hand, trying to scare the new students of Gryffindor, especially the timid little witches. I almost cried.

The senior students next to him were laughing and seemed happy to have this happen. Lin Xiao thought to himself: This is very Gryffindor!

"Well, I think the party is over," Dumbledore said as he stood up and swept across the auditorium.After the words fell, all the food and tableware on the table disappeared, and the students quickly fell silent, waiting for the principal to speak.

"At the beginning of the semester, I would like to give you a few things to pay attention to."

"Attention first-year students, students are prohibited from entering the woods on campus. Some of our classmates from the old class should also remember this." After speaking, his shining eyes stayed on the Weasley twins for a while.

"Furthermore, the administrator, Mr. Filch, also asked me to remind everyone not to cast magic in the corridors during class.

"The review of Quidditch players will be held in the second week of this semester. Any students who are interested in winning glory and extra points for the college please contact Mrs. Huo Qi.

"Finally, I have to tell everyone that those who don't want to suffer an accident or a painful death, please don't enter the corridor on the right on the fourth floor."

After listening to what Dumbledore said, Lin Xiao knew that the part about the school song he hated most had begun. He wanted to ask the school, "Is your song serious?"

"Now, before everyone goes to bed, let's sing the school song together!" Dumbledore said loudly.Lin Xiao also noticed that the smiles of other teachers seemed to have froze. It seemed that the teachers' ears were also suffering from poison.

Dumbledore flicked his wand lightly, and a long golden ribbon flew out of the wand, twisting and coiling lines of text like a snake above the high dining table.

"Each choose their favorite tune," said Dumbledore. "Get ready, sing!"

Then the school song was sung while all the teachers and students were speechless.Only the Weasley twins continued to sing along with the slow melody of the "Funeral March". Dumbledore used his wand to direct the last few bars for them. When they finished singing, he applauded the loudest.

"Okay, it's bedtime now. Freshmen, please follow the prefects of their colleges back to the dormitories."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall male senior wearing a prefect badge beside the table said loudly, "First-year students, follow me." At the same time, a female prefect also stood up.

Lin Xiao followed the Ravenclaw freshman team. He only knew one of the two prefects. He didn't recognize the male one. The female one had appeared in Harry and the Chamber of Secrets. She was Percy Weiss. Penelope Crevat, Len's girlfriend, doesn't know if it will happen now.

The magic staircase arranged by Ms. Ravenclaw is quite complicated, but there are rules to follow. Besides, there is a more convenient way than taking the stairs, and it will not cause harm!

It was troublesome to walk up the magic stairs for the first time without someone to guide him, but with his now photographic memory, he could just walk through it once.

The male prefect leading the way reminded: "Please follow us, our common room is located at the top of the Ravenclaw Tower, and pay attention to the stairs under your feet. They have been cast by Ms. Ravenclaw and will move. It will disappear..."

Female prefect Penelo Crevat said from the side: "The movement of the stairs is also regular. I believe you can find it as long as you observe more."

After walking for a while, they successfully arrived at the Ravenclaw Tower located on the west side of the castle.

Prefect Penelope Crevat said: "Our common room is located at the top of Ravenclaw Tower, hidden behind a door with a magic knocker. Through the arched windows of the circular common room , offering a panoramic view of Hogwarts: the Lake, the Forbidden Forest, the Quidditch Pitch and the Greenhouse. The common room door is at the top of a long, curved staircase with no handles and features an enchanted eagle. Bronze door knocker. When you knock on the door, the eagle knocker will ask you a question. If you can answer it correctly, you will be allowed in. If you can't think of it, you can only wait for others to answer it correctly and follow in, otherwise you may have to Spent the night outside the lounge.”

After finishing speaking, he knocked on the wooden door.Perhaps considering the arrival of new students, the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker asked a somewhat ironic question: "What egg can walk, jump, and talk?"

"Fool"

"Correct answer" the voice of the bronze door knocker sounded.Then the wooden door was opened, and a passage to the lounge appeared.

When Lin Xiao came to the Ravenclaw lounge, he saw a large circular room with elegant arched windows on the wall and blue and bronze silk hangings. It could also be seen from the window. Beautiful scenery outside.The ceiling is a dome with stars on it, as well as stars on the dark blue carpet below.The room has tables, chairs, bookshelves, and a white marble bust of Rowena Ravenclaw in an alcove opposite the door.A door next to the statue leads to the dormitories above.

"Okay, it's time for us to go to the dormitories to rest. The boys' dormitory is on the left, and the girls' dormitory is on the right. Your luggage and class schedules are all placed on the bed in your dormitory." After saying that, Penelo Crevat took the The six girls walked towards the right side of the dormitory.

Lin Xiao remembered that there were only three Ravenclaw boys in the same class as Harry, namely Terry Butt, Michael Corner, and Anthony Goldstein.

Due to the small number of people, Ravenclaw's dormitories usually have three-person rooms, unlike Gryffindor's five-person and four-person rooms. Now that there is one more person, he can live in a single room. I believe Hogwart It’s not like Ci doesn’t even have a single-room dormitory.
