Chapter 208 Zhang Xiao's Patron Saint (3 in 1 Chapter)

Why not draw the bones first?
Zhang Xiao recalled Ms. Gloves' notes:
I regard beauty as a skeleton, use hope as flesh and blood, inject happiness into it, paint it with color, and want to make a painting.

He considered many kinds of possibilities, and also believed that beauty, hope, and happiness are the necessary conditions to constitute the patron saint of the flesh.

Didn't think about it, maybe the glove lady was really describing the painting.

"Zhang, what's the matter with you?" Malfoy stared at the dazed Zhang Xiao in surprise, and asked curiously.

Zhang Xiao came back to his senses: "It's nothing, Draco, you continue, what else?"

"Oh, my teacher also said that there is a very special way of painting, first paint the bones with white, then paint the flesh with other colors, and finally paint the skin."

Harry was also listening with his head stuck out, and he had to admit that Draco Malfoy was indeed well-educated, unlike himself.

Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon were reluctant to shell out a dime for him to learn some hobbies.
Zhang Xiao wrote down what Malfoy said, and there seemed to be light in his eyes. He didn't need to learn this drawing method, as long as he had a certain understanding.

After Malfoy finished speaking, he closed his eyes and let out a long breath:

"I think I know what to try, thanks, Draco."

The little wizards seem to find that Zhang can be seen everywhere, except in class, he is always quietly drawing on the drawing board.

Lakeside, towers, corridors, lawns, gardens.

Sometimes I draw people, sometimes animals.

Only a few people in the Dueling Club knew what Zhang was doing, and they were all looking forward to it, as long as Zhang could learn the Patronus Charm, in his style.

Those of the Dueling Club learn quickly.

That's the Patronus Charm!Still the patron saint of the flesh!Not even their own parents, so they're all waiting, waiting for that silvery glow to come on.

Waiting for Zhang to create a miracle and master the Patronus of the flesh in the second grade.

"Most honorable young master, is this enough for rainwater?"

Yu Shui was sitting on a small chair by the Black Lake, shaking his short legs a little awkwardly.

"Well, just sit still." Zhang Xiao stuffed a fishing rod into its hand: "Just treat yourself as fishing, so you won't be bored."

"Fishing?" Yushui made a high-pitched and excited voice: "This is something only gentlemen can do. Can rainwater also fish?"

Zhang Xiao was amused by it, and put a small fish basket beside it:

"Of course, Yushui, you are a free elf. Even in the future, we are just an employment relationship. You have your own life outside of work."

Yushui, who was so excited that he almost cried, threw himself into fishing for the first time in his life.

It is so focused, its long ears are shaking slightly, and its bright eyes, the size of tennis balls, are staring closely at the float with anticipation.

The rain at this time reveals the purest happiness from the inside out.

Zhang Xiao set up the drawing board, took the rainwater as a model, and prepared to paint.

He outlined the approximate bone line with lines, and soon he leaned forward, stretched his head to look at the skeleton frame in the distance, and it appeared vividly on the paper.

Then start to draw the shape with messy and short and long lines.

Zhang Xiao carefully observed Yushui's demeanor and movements. It is a little nervous now, because it is the first time to fish, and holds the fishing rod tightly with both hands.

I dare not blink my eyes, for fear of missing every moment of the float.

Suddenly, the rain moved, and the muscles of its arms suddenly tensed, and it was pulled up suddenly. With the sound of "crashing", a small fish hung on the hook and kept flicking its tail in the air.

The rain jumped up, and two snot bubbles appeared happily:

"Fish! There is a fish! I caught it! Master, the rain caught a fish!"

In Zhang Xiao's eyes, the colors around the rainwater were incomparably bright, and its happiness seemed to spread to the surroundings.

The paintbrush in his hand stopped in the air.

I regard beauty as a skeleton.

Use hope as flesh and blood.

Inject joy into it.

Paint on the color, want to make a picture.

I seem to understand.

Zhang Xiao closed her eyes slightly, and came to the thinking cabin.

He walked past rows of bookshelves, brushed his fingers over the thick spine, stopped in front of a book, and with a little force, hooked the book out.

The locked bookcase in the center was opened, and the twisted range of the sealed book was much smaller, and the words on the cover could even be faintly seen.

Zhang Xiao took the book and walked to the empty space by the window, and sat down straight facing the air.

A soft sofa is generated invisibly, and the lines quickly become real, and the elastic seat cushion is sunken.

Zhang Xiao leaned on the back of the chair, staring at the book in his hand.

This book is "Family", which is the book that was condensed from the family in the previous life when the thinking cabin was condensed for the first time.

"crash"

A series of books on the bookcase flew over in a line like birds, and lined up in front of Zhang Xiao like tarot cards.

Following Zhang Xiao's movements, the pages of these dozens of books were turned at the same time, looking through them at an extremely fast speed like a money counter.

There was a pause from time to time, and then a page of content was projected in front of Zhang Xiao in the form of a picture. It was his memory, and he couldn't remember much of it.

But it is faithfully preserved, recorded, and waited for by the subconscious mind.

Eat the sweets you want, go on spring outings, and talk to girls you like.

Hang out with mom and dad.

Looking at the blue sky and white clouds without smog, listening to my favorite songs.

Read a great novel.

My mother called and said that the cactus that had been raised for many years had bloomed again.

Had a blackout with good friends, won the whole afternoon, went to have barbecue, the barbecue is delicious.

Dad's physical examination is fine.

On a rainy day, I didn't have to go to work, and no one disturbed me, so I had a good night's sleep.

The memory below seems to carry temperature, like warm sunshine.

That was an indelible memory engraved deep in his heart.

He opened the book called Home.

Watch slowly.

Not only the home in the previous life, but also the warmth and love given by Zhang Chengdao and Li Qingshu in this life.

I regard beauty as a skeleton.

Zhang Xiao waved his hand, and a series of pictures overlapped rapidly, connecting them into a long fluorescent dragon.

Use hope as flesh and blood.

Those expectations and longings for a better life in the future surrounded me.

Inject joy into it.

The countless small but real little happiness is like fireflies all over the sky, gathering here.

Paint on the color, want to make a picture.

That's it
In reality, when Zhang Xiao opened his eyes, the sun was already lying on the horizon half-hidden, a little reluctant to let go, and the line of communication between morning and evening was slowly moving.

Maybe it won't be long before night falls, and the stars can't wait to show their brilliance.

In the towering castle, the windows lit up one after the other.

The surface of the water was sparkling, and the rain was still immersed in the joy of fishing. It caught a lot of fish, and the small fishing basket was almost full.

It turned out to be the case.

The corners of Zhang Xiao's mouth suddenly turned up, showing a smile. He raised his wand and stretched it over his head, slowly drawing a circle.

"Call God. Guard!"

A silver-white glow like moonlight bloomed from the tip of the wand, and then it seemed that something was brewing in it, and the light flowed.

It seems that something is jumping, and the silver threads are intertwined quickly, as if forming bones, flesh and skin, and the last two bright silver spots form the eyes, as if injected with soul.

A dragon carp the size of a person jumped out of the light with its long beard swinging. It swam around Zhang Xiao flexibly back and forth.

Then it had a silvery brilliance, treating the sky as a boundless lake, swimming happily.

This brilliant light illuminates the courtyard below, the greenhouse in the distance, and even the surface of the lake is shining.

The dragon carp kept swimming, and the huge castle seemed to be its playground, and it swam over curiously.

Pass through the tall towers, the long suspension bridge, and wander freely in the castle.

Shadows are disappearing, whether dappled with swaying dead branches or shadows left by towers.

In the main building of the castle, in the tall headmaster's office, Dumbledore in a simple white robe put down the candy in his hand.

He walked quickly to the window and stared at the Patronus, who was like a living creature, which he had never seen before.

The azure blue eyes reflected brightly through the half-moon lenses, and then he smiled, which was a kind of comfortable and happy smile.

"The great Patronus is really great"

He said softly, "Right, Fox?"

Fox, who had just nirvana not long ago, glanced at him, turned his face dismissively, stared at the magic photo in the nest, closed his eyes and rubbed his face.

"Cuckoo~"

Then he buried his head under his wings contentedly, and started another day of rest.

Dumbledore chuckled and didn't care at all:
"Zhang is completely different from Tom. His 13-year-old life is filled with joy and happiness so far, so he can summon such a real patron saint, right?
Great."

In the castle of Hogwarts, many people noticed this unusual Patronus.

Flitwick held the wine glass and raised it high:

"Wonderful! The patron saint who deserves a toast—Zhang!"

In the vice principal's office, Mag was flipping through the homework handed in by the students, his chest heaving violently, obviously very angry.

Then he looked out of the window, his lips pursed into a straight line finally curved into an arc;
In the warm greenhouse, Professor Sprout is clasping his hands together, looking forward to the ginseng leaves in the inner flower pot;
Professor Snape sat on the chair blankly, his eyes were like deep ancient wells, he also summoned the Patronus, and just watched it running back and forth in the small room in a daze.

……

Yushui had already put down the fishing rod in his hand, and he looked up at the dragon carp that was shuttling around the campus, with surprise on his small face.

Zhang Xiao also raised his head, just watching without moving.

"It is very beautiful, sir."

"Yes, it's beautiful."

"Zhang, show us a hand!"

"You really learned?"

"Merlin! Year 2! Patronus of the body! This is unbelievable!"

"It's a miracle!"

In the abandoned classroom, Dang learned that Zhang Xiao had finally cast the patron saint of the physical body.

The little wizards surrounded him and looked at him expectantly. This is the patron saint of the body!
Zhang Xiao sighed, as long as he pulled out his magic wand, it was as easy as eating and drinking, without any delay or brewing.

Just came up with this thought and recited the mantra:
"Call God Guard!"

The silver dragon carp came out from the tip of the wand wagging its head and tail, circled around Zhang Xiao a few times affectionately, and then happily swung its fins and tail up and down in the air, just like a real carp.

"Wow!" The little wizard exclaimed neatly, following the swimming body of the dragon carp, turning his head non-stop.

Hermione's eyes were blurred, and she said softly:

"It's beautiful, isn't it?"

"That's right, I never thought a fish could be so beautiful, you look at it like it's alive!" Ron looked at the dragon carp in amazement, and agreed.

Harry is different from them, there is only an inexplicable voice in his heart, the Patronus Charm, he must know it too!
"Zhang, is this an ordinary creature or a magical animal?" Malfoy asked curiously after looking at it for a while.

As we all know, the rarer the patron saint of the physical body, the more powerful it is. If it is a magical creature, it is a symbol of power. Among the living wizards, only Dumbledore's patron saint is the phoenix.

This almost represents his unshakable strength.

If the outstanding figure of Slytherin, the president of Qingluan Club, and the model of pure blood——Zhang’s patron saint is a magical creature.
The boost to Slytherin's spirit would be immeasurable!
Ordinary creatures or magical beasts?
Zhang Xiao scratched his head, this is really difficult to distinguish, there must be carp in reality, but his patron saint looks different from carp, dragon carp should be considered a legendary creature, right?

At least those two long beards, he had never seen on ordinary carp, they all looked like dragon beards!

After hesitating for a while, Zhang still said truthfully: "Actually, I'm not sure what it is. It should be considered half animal, half magical creature?"

Malfoy was barely satisfied with this answer, a half-legend is also a legend.

Only Cedric asked the most fundamental question:
"Zhang, how did you successfully summon the physical patron saint? Can we learn it?"

"can!"

Zhang Xiao nodded affirmatively, not only that, their learning will be much easier, and they don't have to be as difficult as themselves.

After mastering the Patronus of the physical body, many problems can be easily solved. If you guessed correctly, the stage from the third grade to the sixth grade is the best period to learn the Patronus.

After this stage, it will become more and more difficult to learn, and the little wizard will rarely touch this kind of spell that is said to be extremely difficult because of his young age.

Because of getting older, happiness and happiness are not so pure, and it is difficult to condense the patron saint of the physical body, but when you are young, you may not have enough experience.

As for the reason why Harry and DA members could easily learn the Patronus Charm, Zhang Xiao probably figured it out.

When the little wizard is learning the Patronus Charm, when he finds that happiness is not enough, he will instinctively look for other happy memories, and add up bit by bit.

Finally, through an opportunity, all the accumulated things are released. This is the patron saint of the flesh.

This method is very similar to Zhang Xiao's!It's just missing the link of filling in flesh and blood, injecting 'soul', and applying color.

And when a group of people learn the Patronus Charm, the mist or other things released can easily resonate with the little wizards.

Let them immerse themselves in joy and happiness unconsciously, and invisibly reduce the difficulty.

Adults are different. They will find out in their hearts the happiest thing in their hearts. If they fail, they may think that this thing is not happy enough, so they will change it.

It doesn't do addition continuously like the little wizard.

Unfortunately, Zhang Xiao is learning the Patronus Charm with the thinking of an adult, constantly looking for the moment that she thinks is the happiest, but never thinking about those interesting and happy moments in her life when she releases them .

However, the physical patron saints summoned by these two methods are very different.

For example, for Zhang Xiao's patron saint, it is very easy to summon again after the construction is completed. It only needs one thought and one spell.

And it's extremely agile, as if it's like a living thing.

The little wizards are different, first of all, because the construction is not perfect, what is summoned is only the patron saint of the body, nothing more, has no body, and lacks a 'soul'.

If you want to release it again, it depends on the state. In actual combat, it may not be released at all.

Even Harry himself realized this, that's why he told the little wizards in the fifth Order of the Phoenix:

"It is worth noting that we all summoned the Patronus in a brightly lit, very safe environment.

If you really face a dementor, you probably can't do anything. "

After pondering for a while, Zhang Xiao looked at the anxious little wizards, and finally said:
"Before I thought about going astray, if you learn, it's very simple, try your best to think about happy things, if one is not enough, just two.

If two pieces are not enough, three pieces are enough. Try your best to dig out every moment of happiness and happiness in your heart.

Until you can summon the Patronus. "

"Is that enough?" Harry scratched his messy hair, a little surprised that the legendary extremely difficult Patronus Charm was so simple.

"This is enough!"

Zhang Xiao said seriously.

Immediately afterwards, he looked at Ron and asked meaningfully:

"Dude, how's your mouse Scabber doing now? Is he still lethargic?"

Ron was a little depressed. Mouse Spotted had been with their family for 13 years, although he usually disliked him.

But when I think of Banban being so old, she might be 'no' at any time, and I still can't help but feel sad:

"Well, it has lived long enough, it is estimated that it will leave us soon?"

Yes, he will indeed be leaving you soon.

Zhang Xiao's eyes narrowed, and the Patronus Charm has been mastered. The next point is Pettigrew - Peter!
Taking advantage of the time when everyone was enthusiastically practicing the Patronus Charm, Zhang Xiao sat aside and began to plan the following plan.

In fact, the whole thing is not complicated, just grab Peter and hand it over to Dumbledore.

The most difficult thing is how to reasonably explain how to find Peter Pettigrew.

But this problem is no longer difficult.

After experiencing what happened to St. Mungonaway's family, Dumbledore already knew that there is a magical magic in the East that can directly see many things that are invisible to the naked eye.

And the most crucial evidence has already been added.
Things are changing rapidly, and the tracking symbols given to Peter at the beginning of school are now useless.

Zhang Xiao took out the Marauder's Map and stared at the black dot named Peter Pettigrew among the densely packed names in the Gryffindor tower.

Here is the proof.

Harry and Ron pushed open the door of the dormitory, looked at it casually, and said to the air:

"Zhang, Seamus is not here."

Zhang Xiao took off the invisibility cloak and returned it to Harry:
"Where's Scabbers?"

Ron pointed to the big sleeping mouse lying beside him: "It's still sleeping, I'm really worried that it will leave in its sleep one day."

Peter was awakened by the noise, it opened its eyes, and found that it was Ron Harry, and Zhang, who was rarely seen.

A trace of doubt flashed in the black bean-like eyes, what are they doing here?
"Zhang, can your medicine really restore Banban's vitality?"

"Absolutely no problem. This is a nourishing potion from the East. It is mild and non-irritating. It is very useful for mice!"

So you want to help me supplement my nutrition?Peter was relieved for a while, and then he suddenly remembered the scene on the train when school started.

The kid didn't know what he had done to himself.

Ever since then, Peter has always felt as if he was being watched.

As an Animagus in the form of a mouse, Peter trusts his intuition very much, because it is this intuition that he has avoided danger many times.

Now what kind of rat tonic is this kid going to give himself?

The uneasiness in Peter's heart became more and more intense, and he jerked violently and rolled over from the bed.

No, I have to run!
Zhang Xiao's expression moved, and he stepped over in a few steps, and grabbed Peter with lightning speed, Xiao Mian, want to run?

Harry and Ron stared blankly at the man and the mouse.

I always feel that something is wrong?
A trace of blood flashed in Peter's eyes, and he opened his mouth to bite down, but a thin layer of golden light suddenly appeared on the hand holding it.

The sharp teeth were like biting steel, Peter couldn't help but let out a scream of 'creak', and almost broke his teeth.

Zhang Xiao took this opportunity to pick up the 'rat tonic' - powerful water of life and death, and directly put the mouth of the bottle into Banban's mouth.

When Peter smelled it, his heart sank immediately. How could he not know the water of life and death, which is necessary for tricks?
Subconsciously, he wanted to turn into a human form and flee.

However, Professor Snape's special potent life-death water was so powerful that it took effect almost immediately after swallowing it.

The little mouse almost rolled its eyes, and collapsed limply as if its bones had been removed from its body.

"Zhang..." Ron stared wide-eyed, pointed at Peter tremblingly, and said sadly, "Is Banban dead?"

Zhang Xiao didn't answer, but took out a silver cube from his pocket and turned it into a strong cage.

I don't know what material this cube is made of, but it's extremely strong anyway, so I'm not afraid that Peter will be able to break free.

"It's not dead, it's just asleep." Zhang Xiao closed the cage, and then he let out a sigh of relief: "Ron, I'll borrow it for a while."

"Can"

Zhang Xiao looked at the anxious Ron, and said meaningfully: "Don't worry, it's not a bad thing, on the contrary... it might be a good thing."

The friendship and trust established over the past two years made Ron finally choose to trust Zhang, and he also wanted to know what good things Zhang said.

Then the rest is easy.

Go find Dumbledore!
