A Certain Hogwarts Magician Professor

Chapter 721: Sorting Hat Tour

Latest website: Felix, wearing a dirty, wrinkled, pudding sorting hat, whispered, "Do you have something to say to me?" As he spoke, he glanced at the painting on the wall. Framed, the portraits immediately closed their sizing eyes and snorted.

"I don't want to find you, it's you who has been coveting me." A subtle voice sounded in my mind.

"I'm very curious about your way of being."

"What are you curious about?"

"You've been around for too long, and your materials are too ordinary—"

"Think of the portrait of the Headmaster on the wall, and then think of Peeves," said the Sorting Hat in a tactful tone.

"Portraits? Peeves? They—" Felix was taken aback. "Wait, you're part of the school too?"

"Yes, as long as the school is still there, I will continue to exist, even if I am just a hat of ordinary material."

After solving a long-standing confusion, Felix was a little relaxed and a little dazed. After thinking about it, he asked calmly in his mind: "By the way, why did you assign me to Slytherin?"

"Oh, let me think about it—calm, sober, worshipping power, and on the first day of school, I set the ambition to ascend to the top of the magical world, and I was determined to do so, and—with all due respect, at a very young age, I have no interest in human nature. The dark component is conscious and well prepared, which is very rare in my entire working life."

Felix smacked his lips. "So I fit Salazar Slytherin's philosophy of selecting students?"

"Philosophy, what philosophy?" The Sorting Hat asked bluntly.

"Certainly the thoughts of the four school founders—"

"So you think there's a little note full of requirements sewn into my inner lining?"

"I thought there would be something like that," Felix said calmly. "Like a fixed mindset, or a standard process." The Sorting Hat interrupted indignantly:

"- Then isn't my job hiding behind the students' thinking and ticking off the slips one by one?"

"You seem to have a different opinion."

"Of course I do! I do! It's more important and more complicated than you think," cried the Sorting Hat. "Although I'm just a hat, I have my own ideas and my own personality. Smart, no human shortcomings, no need to eat, sleep, mouth is used to speak, not mixed with other uses - I'm still obsessed with beneficial thinking, well, most of the time I'm reminiscing about the past, composing new songs... "

"It's amazing," Felix said, though he didn't quite know what fond memories he had. Could it be his years in the headmaster's office at Hogwarts, eavesdropping on past headmasters' offices? But is there a sense of participation? Or to savor nearly a thousand sorting ceremonies alone, but the question is it really doesn't get confused?

The Sorting Hat seemed to choke for a moment. It was silent for a while, and said, "I'll show you for yourself."

"it is good."

Felix closed his eyes and waited, the Sorting Hat remained silent for a long time. He was surprised.

"Remove your brain's defenses," said the Sorting Hat glumly. "I can't see anything but superficial thoughts. It's like hitting a wall..."

"Sorry," Felix muttered, he pulled his shield, and after a few seconds, he felt an invisible force pulling the top of his head up, as if to pull him up to the ceiling, or into his hat. It reminded him of the working principle of the Thinking Cabin, and he did not resist.

Then, with a flash in front of his eyes, he appeared in the darkness. Gradually, colors appeared in the darkness, and Felix stared at a string of light spots that appeared out of nowhere and suddenly fell, splashing with gray-green and silver-white sparks, which formed a long, silvery and green foam quagmire, stretches into the distance.

A lonely figure wade through the murky shallow water.

Salazar Slytherin walked past Felix at a leisurely pace, holding a path-finding stick. When the two passed by, his expression did not change at all, the simple robe on his body seemed to be made of a whole piece of black cloth, and a few small snakes followed him step by step.

Light and shadow flickered, transforming into a wilderness. Felix saw a young man walking on a country road, his back straight, his steps brisk, his red hair fluttering in the wind. Young Godric Gryffindor jumped on a rock, looked back at the small village from which he had come, and walked resolutely into the distance.

He naturally didn't know that his hometown would be named after him in the future.

On the quiet riverside, Rowena Ravenclaw quietly watched the flowing river;

In the golden valley, Helga Hufflepuff twisted an ear of wheat that shone in the sun.

Felix suddenly realized that this was the memory of the four founders of the school, and then new doubts arose. According to what the Sorting Hat said at previous sorting ceremonies, they jointly injected ideas into it. Felix always thought it was an idea, but Ideas will always be outdated, medieval morality may not be suitable for the present, but the work of the Sorting Hat never stops.

Now he understands a little bit, the four founders did infuse the Sorting Hat with ideas, but not with shallow ideas, but with their footprints.

Felix walked in the dark, every minute and every second a new picture appeared, and gradually, he grasped a thread and spy on a hidden corner of history-why Gryffindor and Slytherin became good friend? Because they both sought great power; why did they end up going their separate ways? When he saw that Gryffindor learned swordsmanship from Muggle knights, and Slytherin ruthlessly eliminated the threat in front of him, Felix had a vague answer in his heart.

This feeling intensified when meeting Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.

As the most outstanding witches in their time, they are also a pair of close friends. They have traveled many places hand in hand, helping the weak together. Hufflepuff is full of love at heart, treats everyone equally, and her eyes are willing to stop for the weak, Ravenclaw clearly prefers to deal with smart people, because it is more helpful to solve problems. The two cooperated seamlessly. The former eliminated many unnecessary disputes, while the latter was good at giving advice and solving problems once and for all.

Felix saw the culinary magic of the Hogwarts kitchen and the rudimentary architecture of the castle from the travels of the two ladies.

Naturally, the experiences of the four school founders when they were young also paved the way for future differences.

Among the four, Salazar Slytherin is the most extreme, or - the most closed-hearted, he is more similar to an ascetic, alone, walking through troubled times. He pursues power like Gryffindor, but is more unscrupulous; like Ravenclaw, he is alienated and aloof, but more indifferent to himself; like Hufflepuff, he has sympathy for little wizards with poor living conditions, but this A share of sympathy is extremely stingy, and will never give out a shred of sympathy to unrelated people.

The four best wizards and witches of their time met, they had all heard of each other, and it was no surprise that they exchanged magical knowledge with each other. To Felix's surprise, the three other than Hufflepuff In particular, Slytherin bluntly pointed out that the magic researched by Hufflepuff is "not worth mentioning, and it is useless in a troubled world." Fortunately, there are calm Ravenclaw and enthusiastic Gryffindor The reconciliation, coupled with Hufflepuff's usual good temper, kept the conflict from turning into a storm.

As the communication deepened, Hufflepuff proved that she was also an excellent witch. She was not only good at cooking magic, but also excelled at identifying herbs and mixing potions.

In the end, the four decided to build a magic school together.

They came to the Scottish Highlands, which are remote, primitive and desolate, where ancient rocks are divided into canyons and lakes by currents and glaciers. Ravenclaw chose a cliff with a lake, surrounded by emerald slopes, wearing The white snow cap, below is a deep canyon, and the lake is adjacent to the dense woods.

The four agreed that this was an ideal place to build a school.

Among them, only Ravenclaw had the experience of building houses by hand (using magic), she conceived the floor plan of the school, especially the spiral staircase that can be moved flexibly in the main building, the two men brought in various materials, Hufflepuff Qi searched for flowers and greenery to decorate the school, and unexpectedly found a wild wand tree in the nearby primeval forest.

The castle gradually took shape, and the four of them worked together to arrange the most stringent defense magic for the school at that time. When considering that the castle would be filled with students in the future, they even came up with a genius idea - which was unique at that time. The pioneering work of relying on the castle to collect the escaped magic power is the most important part of maintaining the magic castle and building the defense system.

Felix watched this scene intently.

He didn't think about getting any magical knowledge from the Sorting Hat. At first, he was curious about its existence, and then he wanted to chat with the four founders in the Sorting Hat, if possible. But the surprise came suddenly...

The four school founders do the same thing with no reservations and passion, and use what they have learned. The secrets of Hogwarts Castle unfolded little by little in front of his eyes, Felix's hands followed, and the Book of Rune hung on his chest, and began to turn the pages automatically. With him as the center, circles of rune symbols spread out along the ground, climbed the wall, and extended outwards along the crack of the door...

As a magic center in the castle, the magic channel in the house appeared from the thin air, and received the power symbolizing the ancient rune. Soon this new power flowed along the magic blood vessels like surging blood. the whole castle. Passing through Myrtle's abandoned bathroom, the passage splits into a new branch leading straight to the Slytherin Chamber.

In the magic spell classroom, Professor Flitwick just gave a wonderful demonstration to the students below. Then he suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand, and gently picked it up in the air with his wand. The tip of the wand brought out a golden rune symbol. .

The students raised their heads, the walls and the floor rose and fell like fine waves, and everything was calm in a blink of an eye.

Professor Flitwick cleared his throat, "Classmates, let's continue the class..."

In the school kitchen, the house-elves were busy preparing lunch for the students, and a gust of wind blew through ~www.NovelMTL.com~ They seemed to sense something, looked up and looked around, but found nothing. In the kitchen hangs an ordinary portrait of a woman with kind eyes. This painting is not connected to the school castle, nor does it have the slightest magic, it is just passed down from generation to generation in the house-elves community.

Every house-elf for as long as he can remember has heard an old story: "It was Lady Hufflepuff who brought them into Hogwarts, gave them shelter, respect, and work, and taught them cooking magic herself..."

Felix opened his eyes, and the last image still remained in his mind. It was when the four founders stood together and injected their thoughts—the trajectory of their lives into the Sorting Hat. Slytherin was wearing a locket, Ryffindor with the sword, Ravenclaw with the crown, Hufflepuff with the gold cup, at least for the moment, there was relief in their eyes.

Felix stood up slowly and put the Sorting Hat back on the divider. His gaze rested on the glass case next to it, which contained the locket, the sword, and the golden cup. Except for the glittering Gryffindor sword, the other two founder's relics were somewhat dull.

Felix took Ravenclaw's tiara from the ring and set it aside gently.
