Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

　　 The train stopped at the station, and the passengers got off one after another. The passengers who got off the bus pushed and shoved, rushing to the door.

　　 When he got down to a platform with no lights, Zhang Xu heard the shout of "First-year students! First-year students come here!"

　　 Looking along the voice, I saw a huge figure standing there holding a lamp, slightly synchronized with the Statue of Liberty.

　　Rubber Hagrid, a hybrid giant, the key keeper of Hogwarts, the keeper of the Forbidden Forest, and one of Dumbledore's henchmen. He is a good person, but he is very different from ordinary people in the three views on magical animals.

"Come on, come with me, are there any first-year students? Watch out for your feet, okay! First-year students come with me!" In Hagrid’s shouts, a group of freshmen followed Hagrid along a steep and narrow path. The path went downhill.

　　 After Hagrid took the little wizards to relive the Hogwarts founder's "Revisiting the Long March", the freshmen disembarked one after another.

　　 When Zhang Xu got off the boat, he found a toad lying on the boat. After thinking about it, he picked it up and walked to the round-faced boy on the train looking for toads. "Classmate, did you drop this toad?"

　　During the thank-you students along the Naville Road, Zhang Xu and the freshmen climbed up a tunnel in the rock under the light of Hager's lantern, and finally reached a flat and wet grassland in the shadow of the castle.

　　Everyone walked up a section of stone steps, and in front of a huge oak door, Hagrid raised a huge fist and knocked three times on the castle gate.

　　 The door opened immediately. A tall, dark-haired witch in an emerald-green robe stood in front of the gate.

　　 Professor McGonagall appeared in front of the freshmen with a serious expression. Her powerful aura made the freshmen quiet.

　　 "First-year freshman, Professor McGonagall." Hagrid said.

　　 "Thank you, Hagrid. Let me pick you up here." Professor McGonagall said to Hagrid.

　　 Professor McGonagall opened the door wide. The foyer is several hundred square meters. The stone wall is surrounded by flaming torches. The ceiling is so high that it is almost invisible. On the front is a luxurious marble staircase that leads directly to the upper floor.

　　 The freshmen followed Professor McGonagall along the stone paved floor. From the door on the right, the buzzing voices of students from other classes in the school must have arrived.

　　 Professor McGonagall took the first-year freshmen to a small empty room at the other end of the hall. Everyone rushed in, rubbing their backs and squeezing together, staring nervously at everything around them.

"Welcome to Hogwarts," Professor McGonagall said, "The opening banquet is about to begin, but before you go to the restaurant, you must first determine which college you enter. The classification is one item. A very important ceremony, because during your stay at school, the college is like your home at Hogwarts. You have to take classes with other students in the college, stay together in the college dormitory, and spend time together in the college’s common room. After school time.

"The names of the four academies are: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Each academy has its own glorious history and has cultivated outstanding wizards and wizards. You are in Huo During Gwarts’s studies, your outstanding performance will earn your college points, and any violations will deduct your college points. At the end of the year, the college with the highest score will receive the College Cup, which is very high. The honor. I hope you can win honor for the college no matter which college you are assigned to.

"In a few minutes, the branching ceremony will be held in front of the teachers and students of the whole school. I suggest you organize yourself and be more energetic while you wait. When there is ready, I will come to pick you up. Please keep it up while waiting. Be quiet." Professor McGonagall left the room after speaking.

　　 The surrounding freshmen immediately began to tidy up their appearance, wipe their faces, tidy their robes, tidy their robes, and comb their hair with their hands.

　　 Zhang Xu took out a tissue from the treasure bag and wiped his face, then threw it back into the treasure bag, and then took out a comb to comb his hair neatly. The head can be broken and the blood can flow, but the hairstyle should not be messy.

　　 "How can they accurately assign us to which college?" A freshman behind Zhang Xu asked another freshman beside him.

Zhang Xu turned around and saw that the red-haired freshman he was asked said to the freshman with glasses beside him: "I think it always passes a test. Fred said it hurts us a lot. , But I think he was joking."

Zhang Xu accepted Ron’s words with a serious face: “Don’t worry, it won’t be dangerous. At least I’ve never heard of freshmen losing their lives at the sorting ceremony, haven’t they? And the medical level of the Hogwarts hospital is very high. Yes, it is second only to the St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Injuries. Even if your hands and feet are broken, you can recover. So there is nothing to worry about, right?"

　　 Zhang Xu's voice was not small, Ron and the surrounding freshmen could hear them clearly, and then all the freshmen began to tremble at a frequency of 10 Hz.

　　 At this moment, there were a few loud screams from the crowd, and the trembling unidentified freshmen joined the screaming ranks.

　　 Zhang Xu, who received the sonic attack, rubbed his ears, followed everyone's gaze, and saw about twenty ghosts floating above the room.

These pearly white, translucent ghosts, Zhang Xu, have also seen many in China. They usually wander around in their own "territories" and do nothing bad. They just look around and then spread gossip and do bad things. All of the ghosts have been cleaned up. The alchemists developed them into "Chaoyang District masses", and they reported to the police when they found illegal cases such as thief robbery. Therefore, thieves in residential areas with ghosts have basically disappeared. Half of the thieves who dared to steal things in these places were caught as soon as they started, and the other half surrendered with a psychological shadow of two to three hundred square meters. Therefore, China’s Zhongyuan Festival has also become an important festival.

　　 Professor McGonagall is back. The ghosts ran away right away.

　　 "Now, in a single row," Professor McGonagall said to the freshman, "follow me."

　　 The freshmen walked out of the room, walked through the foyer, and passed a double-opening door at the back to enter the luxurious dining room.

　　Muggle-born little wizards could not have imagined that there would be such a magical, beautiful and magnificent place.

　　The students from other classes in the college have all been sitting around four long tables. Above the tables, thousands of candles floating in the air illuminate the dining room. On the four tables were glittering gold plates and goblets. There is another long table on the top table of the restaurant. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is the seat of teachers. The candlelight flickered, and hundreds of faces staring at them looked like pale lanterns. The ghosts were also mingled with the students, shining dimly in silver. The freshmen looked up and saw the velvety black ceiling glittering with stars. It's hard to believe that there is a ceiling over there, and it's hard to believe that the roof of the restaurant is not open.

　　 Zhang Xu heard Hermione next to him whisper: "Spells have been cast here. It looks like the sky outside. I read about it in Hogwarts, a School History."

　　 After a while, Professor McGonagall prepared the sorting hat.

After the Sorting Hat finished singing this year’s song, Professor McGonagall walked a few steps forward, holding a roll of parchment in his hand, and said to the new students: “Whoever I call the name now, put on the hat and sit down. On the stool, wait for the branch."

　　 The results of the branching house are no different from what Zhang Xu remembered. Those who should go to Gryffindor should go to Gryffindor, and those who should go to Slytherin should go to Slytherin.

　　 Zhang Xu is the last freshman to wear a sorting hat.

　　 "Big brother, have you eaten?" The Sorting Hat asked Zhang Xu in Chinese.

　　 "No, you can eat it only when you are finished." Zhang Xu replied in Chinese.

　　 "Sorry, I can speak the sentence just now in Chinese." The Sorting Hat said in English.

　　 Zhang Xu:...

　　 "Ravenclaw!" After finishing the conversation with Zhang Xu, the Sorting Hat shouted.

　　 The farthest dining table on the left burst into cheers again.

　　 Zhang Xu looked calm at this time, and it didn't matter to him which college he was assigned to.

　　 Zhang Xu stood up and took off the sorting hat and put it back on the chair. When he lifted up, he found Dumbledore looking at him. Zhang Xu bowed slightly to Dumbledore, and Dumbledore responded with a smile.
