v4 Chapter 120： People stick together 1

The Slytherin Chamber.

In the dark secret room, a pattern of a five-pointed star and a six-pointed star is drawn on the most central ground with a cross as the center. This is a special formation for rod-making. It is the unique secret of Ravenclaw back then. It belongs to a different genre from the art of rod-making by the Orivand family.

Although Ravenclaw’s rod-making heritage is far less famous than the Orivand family, it does not mean that the former is inferior to the latter. When Rowena Ravenclaw herself invented this stick-making technique, she was actually inspired by the four founders who founded the Hogwarts Four Colleges together.

As we all know, behind the establishment of the four colleges is actually supported by magic theories. That's why, this kind of simple, rude, and criticized method of sorting out hospitals has not dared to change it without authorization in the thousand years since the school was founded, even the greatest and most philanthropic Dumbledore.

In Great Britain, Muggle’s elite secondary schools are indeed branched, but the purpose of this branch is very clear. It is to encourage students to learn to compete and collaborate, to experience the miniature society for them, and to accumulate the social experience and social interaction they need before entering the society. Skill. Their branching process is random, so that people of different cultural backgrounds, different styles and sports abilities, different personalities and genders can learn how to get along, how to collaborate, and finally merge together.

But Hogwarts is better. It is sorted directly based on the four personality traits of courage, wisdom, integrity, and ambition, and this is not the students' choice, but an ancient sorting hat with an unclear operating principle. . Even if the students are dissatisfied, they cannot violate the instructions of the Sorting Hat.

As a result, the day when the students enter the school at the age of 11, they will be labeled with character, and they will be burdened with expectations that they should not have at this age. For example, Neville must do his best to absorb courage to reach Gryffindor. What other people expected of him; and Snape would be addicted to black magic, and Lily Evans would be a stranger in the end, and it was not without the influence of the snake courtyard.

Forget it. What’s more serious is that this way of classifying students by their colleges has also caused discrimination and prejudice.

In the original work, Ron and Hermione mentioned their yearning for Gryffindor and their contempt for Slytherin more than once. What was even more exaggerated was Hagrid. He actually said openly that "no wizard who later turned bad was not from Slytherin" was a serious prejudice, and he said it to Harry, who was first exposed to the wizarding world. Harry's prejudice against Slytherin was planted at that time.

At Hogwarts, many people think that Slytherin students claim that they have noble blood and discriminate against students from other colleges, but on the other hand, don't the other three colleges also discriminate against the "evil" Slytherin?

Therefore, this sort of branching method not only creates discrimination, but also extends division and hatred.

For centuries, Slytherin and Gryffindor have been fighting endlessly, while Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw seem to be independent and neutral, but in fact they will always favor Gryffindor. Aside. This is no way. Who told Slytherin to have Voldemort and Gryffindor to have Dumbledore?

Even Dumbledore himself could not help but say to Snape, "I sometimes think our classification is too sloppy." Schelling in the previous life was not less puzzled. Since Dumbledore, as the principal, had long seen the shortcomings of the branching system, why didn't he propose reforms? As the greatest and most prestigious white wizard of our time, if he leads the reforms, there will definitely be minimal resistance.

(Note: The original English text of Dumbledore’s passage is IsometimesthinkweSorttoosoon, which means that it was too early to divide the hospital and let students lose the time to develop their personalities. The original text of the People’s Society is used above.)

However, Xie Lin in this life finally understood the truth of the branch system. The so-called four colleges actually correspond to the four elements in the theory of the four elements of magic — Slytherin corresponds to the "water element", Gryffindor corresponds to the "fire element", and Ravenclaw corresponds to Is the "wind element", Hufflepuff corresponds to the "earth element".

This has certain similarities with the "Five Elements Theory" and "Feng Shui Theory" studied by Oriental Wizards.

For a long time, Hogwarts has relied on the fusion of the four elements to maintain the operation of the entire castle. In other words, to some extent, the branching system is the basis for the smooth operation of the magical magnetic field within Hogwarts. This is why no one dared to reform the branch system.

Ravenclaw’s secret technique of rodmaking is actually a ritual to give a piece of wood a magical attribute based on the combination of the four elements.

For this alone, it is impossible to be inferior to the Orivand family's technique of engraving alchemy marks on the wood and the core of the staff. However, the drawback of Ravenclaw's method is obvious, that is, the wizards of the four elements must be gathered together to make the staff. The versatility and convenience are far more than Olivan Derby.

There are 4 people in the secret room at this moment-Schelling, Batori, Annis, and Salf. At the moment, they are divided into four corners, standing at the ends of the cross. All four of them held something in their hands. It was the material to be sacrificed in the ceremony. It was all from Schellingen through Ali Bashir, Sister Gulana, and the German smuggler Nicholas. Collected from illegal channels.

Recalling the days when I just wanted to refine a magic potion and had to collect the raw materials a few years ago, Xie Lin couldn't help but feel very satisfied with his personal network resources today. Now he, with just one sentence, can easily bring the raw materials and materials he wants to his eyes.

Whether it is the Malfoy family, the Black family, the Greengrass family, or the Ravenclaw library, there are some classics of rod-making, a collection of the knowledge passed down by these families, and in terms of the amount of knowledge alone, Schelling may Not as good as Orivand, but definitely enough to despise most people in the field of rodmaking. What Schelling lacks is actually just an opportunity to practice.

In the past period of time, because Schelling specifically explained in advance, Salf has also been immersed in this knowledge.

After the deduction of Salf and Schelling, today is the day when Mercury is in the sky, and Snake Wood is part of Mercury in the herbal sequence, so the magical guidance of Snake Wood will be increased by the astrological bonus today.

The basilisk horns have also undergone special treatment-they have been soaked in the blood of the rooster, the natural enemy of the basilisk, for seven days and seven nights. The basilisk horns should be displayed outdoors on a cloudless night and be illuminated by as many stars as possible, classics. Zhong believes that this may increase the wand’s communication with various fields of magic.

Schelling placed the basilisk horn in the center of the cross, opened his mouth, and made a hissing sound.

Among the four people here, only Salf can understand snake language, and Schelling said, "Wake up! The emperor among ten thousand snakes!"

Basilisk's horns burst out with a strong and dazzling aquamarine light.

Xie Lin took a step forward, threw a stunned long-horned water snake in his hand, and said aloud: "In the name of pure blood, I sacrifice the descendants of Senunos and call for the mighty power of water. Coming!"

Horned Serpent (Horned Serpent) is a magical animal in North America, capable of speaking, shrewd and cunning. In fact, it is the descendant of Cernunnos in Celtic mythology in the Muggle world. This **** represents pure blood and nobleness. , Which corresponds to the "water element" trait behind Slytherin.

The long-horned water snake landed in front of the basilisk horns, uttered a scream, and turned into a pool of liquid blue energy, which was absorbed by the basilisk horns.

Batori took action for the second time. She threw the stunned three-headed rune snake forward, then opened her mouth and spit out a thick liquid similar to green blood. , The liquid dipped on the rune snake, and the three heads made screams of different lengths in turn. The rune snake turned into a blue smoke, slowly being absorbed by the basilisk horns.

Runespoor is a magical animal in Burkina Faso, Africa. It has a brave and aggressive personality. The three heads often fight together as soon as their brains are hot. They completely forget that they share a body and die. It is equivalent to the death of all three, which corresponds to the "fire element" trait behind Gryffindor. The blood of vampires actually contains a trait called "Hardfire", and the materials used to sacrifice the fire element are the most suitable.

The next action is the **** Annis Black. She laughed strangely, and threw a chicken-headed dragon-body monster in her hand to the center of the ceremony. She made a strange gesture with her hands. A long, dark blue nail broke away from her fingers and turned into a blue light to shoot in. Inside the monster.

The monster is actually Cockatrice, a close relative of the basilisk. Its gaze can be deadly or petrified. The breath it breathes is highly poisonous. Its character is paranoid and tyrannical. When encountering an enemy who violates its own dignity, it will chase the opponent to the end of the world, even at the expense of the enemy, corresponding to the "earth element" of Hufflepuff. (Unexpectedly, the extremes of diligence, persistence, and single-mindedness are actually paranoia)

All the **** lives in the dark crypts for many years, and their bodies contain strong earth elements, so Anis’s nails are used to sacrifice the earth elements.

Sharf's face was very solemn, she walked slowly to the center of the ceremony, and carefully picked up the basilisk horn on the ground in the palm of her hand.

"Aquila!" Xie Lin yelled coldly, and an eagle-shaped phantom turned out, sending out a long scream. Aquila's body glowed with colorful brilliance, it slammed its wings vigorously, and the two wing feathers turned into invisible wind arrows and shot into the basilisk horns.

"Sharf, it's now!" Schelling gave one last instruction.

Sharf opened her mouth and made a burst of hissing noises of varying lengths. She was not casting spells, but communicating with the basilisk horns, establishing a special connection between the wizard and the core of the staff—

What is the magic wand selection wizard? It may be reasonable to let the wand choose the wizard. The core of the wand has emotion and will-oriented. The wands made with different cores are destined to match wizards with different personalities and temperaments. But is this really the only truth in the world of rod-making?

At this moment, once the method of refining the core used by Schelling is successful, an unbreakable bond is directly established between the wizard and the core, and the fit between the wizard and the wand will far exceed what is currently known. Any combination of.

["Basilisk Horn" and "Sharf" fit Max! 】

At the same time, Schelling whispered the ancient long spell in a low voice, and the deep whisper reverberated in the middle of the secret room. The snake wood automatically floated up in the air, slowly moved into Salf's palm, and then began to melt, slowly Slowly wrap the basilisk horns, invisible to the naked eye, and the golden filaments are interspersed in the wood. This is actually the wisdom of the basilisk horns is growing and spreading in the rod like the nerves of the human body, until the core and the core The stick bodies merged together flawlessly.

Sharf took on a brand-new wand, and a ring of thunder and lightning radiated from her in all directions.

A fingernail-sized snake head protrudes slightly from the grip of the wand, and two crimson snake eyes shimmer with a biting luster.

Sharf closed her eyes, her long black hair fluttered in the opposite direction without any wind, her aura grew wildly, and a huge snake-shaped phantom appeared faintly behind her.

At this moment, everyone present felt the—

The auras of Salf and the wand have blended together indiscriminately, and it is no longer possible to tell which is Salf and which is wand by breath—

"This is the unity of human rods?" The well-informed Batori quickly recognized this phenomenon. "Unbelievable, even in my time, a wand that can make wizards and wands resonate to such an extent. The technique is already a legendary existence, no one has ever seen such a sight...Oh my God, Xie Lin, you are..."

Batori doesn’t know what to say. She has been alive for centuries. She hasn’t seen any kind of genius, but Schelling’s almost all-proficient talent seems to her to be beyond genius. The category is enough to be called an evildoer.

The magic wand is the second life of the wizard, and the most precious partner of the wizard. The fit between the wand and the wizard is the most important factor in choosing a wand, and it is a recognized fact in the hearts of all wizards.

But no matter what the current wand maker did, it was impossible to make a wand that perfectly matched the wizard from the limited materials. At most, it had a high degree of fit.

The magic wand in Salf's hand obviously resonated mysteriously with her, reaching the realm of "the unity of man and rod" in the legend.

"Am I right?" Annis said hesitantly, UU reading www.uukanshu. com "Her magical power level just broke through?"

Schelling nodded and said faintly: "Yes, the magic wand itself has magic power, reaching the state of'human wand unity', which means that the magic power in the wand and Salf's magic pool are connected together. Since then, they can share their magical power with the rod, so it is not surprising that the magical power has made a breakthrough. "Salph's magical power has already reached the height of the quasi-Auror, and under the impact, he has officially stepped into the Auror. Level of magic.

"Awesome!" Batori looked at Xie Lin with a smile, "Brother Xie Lin, you have such a great craft, when will you get a magic wand for Sister Elisa?" Annis on the side heard this sentence. Words, immediately gather energy to listen attentively.

Pure-blooded vampires and **** (mixed blood is okay, so Furong has a magic wand), like house elves and goblins, are restricted by the Ministry of Magic's laws and are not allowed to hold magic wands, which makes them can only rely on casting spells The talent instinctively urges the use of magic powers rudely, and cannot make magic play so lightly, which affects the real strength.

Therefore, Batori and Anis cannot openly buy wands from normal channels, and second-hand wands purchased from the black market are of uneven quality, and sometimes even show anti-lord characteristics, and they are not as good as none. The stick casts spells easily.

"Don't worry," Schelling's mouth curled slightly, his eyes gleaming, "I will never treat my followers badly. As long as you never betray the covenant between us, I promise-there will be something you can hold openly. A day with a magic wand."
