Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

Chapter 248 The Stars in the Sky Withered, and the Wizards on the Ground Wept

Divination is a very profound knowledge, the threshold of mastery depends on the fate, the branch subjects are complicated, and it is easy to understand but difficult to master.

Divination is not something that any wizard can learn. People without talent can only dawdle in divination classes.

Hogwarts originally did not intend to train all students to become fortune tellers, and setting up fortune telling classes was just casting a wide net.

Except for Parvati Patil from the Lion Academy, Zhang Xu’s classmates in this year have never heard of anyone who discovered a talent for divination in the divination class, even her twin sister Padma Petit Nor did I. Coupled with the fact that Zhang Xu, who didn't choose courses, and who mainly relied on spoilers for divination, this year's students were only half-talented wizards in divination.

Divination has many subdisciplines. In terms of direction, different fortune tellers are good at divination in different directions, from the general trend of the world, natural disasters, basic necessities of life, and marriage. In terms of means, Hogwarts alone has taught tea, dream interpretation, smoke, astrology and so on.

Combining direction and means, the figures obtained are terrifying.

Every fortuneteller has a specialization direction, and the study of a fortuneteller is actually to find out what his specialization direction is.

At the beginning, Zhang Xu often asked the house elves in the kitchen to help him keep the ox blades. After a lot of tossing and finding that he didn't have the talent in this area, the remaining ox blades ended up in the soup pot.

The most important thing about divination is to [delete]fudge[/delete] interpretation. When a fortune-teller sees a prediction from the future, how to interpret it becomes a very challenging place.

Those who do divination generally don't talk too much, and always leave some room for themselves. How to prevent customers from giving bad reviews afterwards is a test of the fortune-teller's literary skills.

For example, Zhang Nongshi often complained about Zhao Nongshi's saying that "five stars come out of the east to benefit China". At that time, alchemists generally believed that the five planets of water, fire, wood, metal, and earth gathered in the eastern sky. As a result, on the day of the founding ceremony, a group of people dropped their jaws in shock.

After returning from the centaur tribe,

Zhang Xu kept thinking about the prophecy given to him by the centaur elders, so much so that Umbridge appeared on the professor's table at dinner, and Luna kept rubbing his hands with her fingers, he didn't notice it. stuffing food into mouth.

If the elder centaur hadn't read the complete works of "Harry Potter", then Zhang Xu was shocked by his prediction.

Zhang Xu was not surprised that the centaur elder predicted the upcoming wizard war. If he didn't have some real talents, he couldn't be an elder in the centaur tribe, which is famous for astrology and divination.

What puzzled Zhang Xu was the planet that the elder Ma Ren said appeared fifteen years ago and was hidden behind Mars four years ago.

From Zhang Xu's point of view, the appearance and movement of this planet seemed familiar no matter how it looked, and seemed to match him.

Fifteen years ago when the planet appeared, it happened to be the time when I came to this world.

The planet moved behind Mars four years ago, which coincided with the time when I came to Hogwarts.

Since then, the Mars representing war has become brighter and brighter, and since then he has been preparing for the final battle with Voldemort.

Zhang Xu is not surprised that astrology can predict the future. The problem is what is going on with this new planet. He doesn't think he can affect the movement of celestial bodies in the universe.

After dinner, Zhang Xu came to the office of Aurora Sinista, a professor of astronomy. He wanted to find an expert to learn about the planet.

As a result, Professor Sinista was not in the office, so Zhang Xu climbed up to the top of the Astronomy Tower.

On the top of the astronomical tower, Professor Sinista observed the sky with the astronomical telescope, and then made records on the parchment.

Zhang Xu waited quietly for more than an hour, and did not go up to say hello until Professor Sinista put away the parchment.

"Good evening, Professor Sinistra."

"Good evening, Zhang," Professor Sinistra replied, "Sorry to keep you waiting."

"It's okay," Zhang Xu said, "I have a question about the planets."

"No problem, come to my office." Professor Sinista said.

It is estimated that for the convenience of Professor Sinista's work, the office of the astronomy professor comes down from the top of the tower.

The two sat down on the sofa, and there were two cups of coffee that Professor Sinista had just brewed on the tea table.

"Professor Sinista, I got a prophecy from the Centaur not long ago. Fifteen years ago, a planet suddenly appeared in the starry sky. Four years ago, this planet moved behind Mars. What do you think about this planet?" Record?" Zhang Xu asked.

After hearing Zhang Xu's question, Professor Sinista thought for a while and said, "You are asking about that 'naughty ghost'."

"Naughty ghost?" Zhang Xu asked curiously.

"Yes." Professor Sinistra entered the lecture mode, "Fifteen years ago, wizards and centaurs who observed the starry sky discovered it."

"It's just that it's very naughty. At first, because it was running very fast and the starlight was very bright, everyone thought it was a shooting star."

"But over the next few days, it reappeared."

"Because it only appears for a short time each time, some people once thought it was a new satellite of the earth. But if the earth has a new satellite, it is impossible that there will be no signs before that, and a new asteroid will come. Before the earth, it could be seen."

"In the days that followed, new observations were made about it. Its brightness is not fixed. Sometimes it gets darker and sometimes it gets brighter."

"During that time, 80% of the articles in "Star" magazine were about it. I don't remember who gave it the nickname 'Naughty Ghost' in the article. Since then People just called it 'Naughty Ghost'."

"At that time, I received many letters from other stargazing friends every day. Reading letters, replying letters, discussing and arguing in letters took up most of my time."

"Did there be any conclusions about 'Naughty Ghost' later?" Zhang Xu asked.

"No." Professor Sinistra said, "Later we discovered that its orbit would change slightly, and this made us discuss for a long time."

"And because it's so fast, it only appears in the telescope for about a second. No wizard has been able to see it clearly for so many years."

"Later, everyone's enthusiasm for studying it gradually decreased, and only a few friends and I were left on the wizard's side to pay attention to it from time to time."

"Then it never appeared after running behind Mars four years ago?" Zhang Xu asked again.

"It didn't run behind Mars, but it was preparing to stop reflecting sunlight to the Earth when it flew in front of Mars." Professor Sinista said after drinking the remaining coffee in his cup in one gulp.

Zhang Xu raised a question mark, waiting for Professor Sinista's explanation.

"Zhang, if you hadn't come to Hogwarts, then we would never know the true face of the 'Naughty Ghost'." Professor Sinista said after sighing.

Zhang Xu thought for a while, and a guess suddenly appeared in his mind that made him yell "lying grass".

Professor Sinista continued: "Not long before it finally appeared, I speculated that it would fly near Mars, so I stared at Mars in front of the telescope all night, hoping to wait for its figure."

"And then I made it, and in a fraction of a second I saw it and drew it."

Professor Sinista used the Flying Charm to bring a parchment album from the bookshelf in the office, which contained pictures of various planets and nebulae drawn by herself.

Professor Sinista opened one of the pages at the back, and then pushed it in front of Zhang Xu.

When Zhang Xu saw the outline drawn with a few strokes on the parchment, he blurted out "[Prohibited items]".

Fortunately, Professor Sinista doesn't understand Chinese, otherwise Zhang Xu would have been deducted points for swearing.

From the outline on the parchment, it can be seen that this new planet that has confused wizards for many years is the Mir space station where the red furry bear shot.
