Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

Zhang Xu arrived at the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom one minute before class. ＊ＷWＷ.suimeng.lā

Due to Snape's high requirements, not many students can take this class.

But as soon as Zhang Xu entered the classroom and looked around, he felt the urge to challenge Snape to a duel.

The originally bright classroom was abruptly decorated into a basement style by Snape. The bright sunshine outside the window was blocked by thick black curtains, and candles were lit in the dark classroom in broad daylight.

This waste of candles was naturally not the reason why Zhang Xu wanted to challenge Snape. After all, he did not need to reimburse him for the cost of burning candles.

On the wall in the classroom, there were pictures that were obviously posted by Snape. The pictures showed the situations of people who had been harmed by black magic, such as a pool of blood on the ground after being invaded by the Inferi, and being sucked by Dementors. The wizard who lost his soul after taking away his soul, and Zhang Xu, who was sweating profusely and looking hideous after being tortured by the Cruciatus Curse...

Just when Zhang Xu was thinking about whether to challenge Snape or let Peeves cause trouble for him, it was time for class.

"I haven't asked you to take out your books yet," Snape said to the students as he walked towards the podium.

Then Snape insulted his colleagues in the past few years, and then boasted clearly.

Then Snape stepped down from the podium and said in a low, admiring voice: "There are many kinds of dark magic, ever-changing, and never-ending. Fighting it is like fighting the Hydra, cutting off a head, Grow two heads..."

Then Snape walked to the portraits as he spoke, pointed to a portrait and said: "These paintings show the situations of different victims, such as this one being kissed by a dementor."

Then Snape pointed to the next portrait and said, "This is an attack by the Inferi."

At this time, Parvati Patil raised her hand and asked: "So, has anyone here seen the Inferi?"

After Snape confirmed that the Two-hole Socket Man had used the Inferi, he glanced at Harry Potter and asked, "Does anyone know how to deal with the Inferi?"

As soon as Snape finished speaking, Hermione, the point-grabbing queen of the Lion Academy, and Zhang Xu, the point-grabbing expert of the Eagle Academy, raised their hands at the same time.

However, Snape didn't even look at either of them. Instead, he pointed at Ron and said, "Weasley, answer this question."

As a result, Ron stood up and said: "Inferi are afraid of fire.

The Inferi can be destroyed with fire, Professor. "

Zhang Xu, who was holding back a smile, saw something unnatural on Snape's face. Snape probably thought that Ron would not have any preparation in this area, but he didn't expect that Ron had gone through it when he was in fourth grade. Infernal corpse.

Snape asked Ron to sit down with a cold face, and then reluctantly gave Gryffindor a point.

Next, Zhang Xu stopped laughing. Instead, the classmates in the classroom were laughing, because Snape walked to the painting showing Zhang Xu suffering from the Cruciatus Curse.

But Snape didn't laugh. He just looked at Zhang Xu with interest and said, "Why don't we let Mr. Zhang talk about the feeling of the Cruciatus Curse."

At this time, all the students in the classroom fell silent and looked at Zhang Xu quietly.

Zhang Xu wordlessly took out an empty medicine bottle from his pocket, then tapped his head with the wand, pulled out a memory from his mind, and put it in the bottle.

Zhang Xu put the bottle containing the silver-like gas on the table and said to Snape: "I think you can feel it yourself. This will deepen the impression, Professor."

Snape walked to Zhang Xu's desk, glanced at Zhang Xu, took away the bottle on the table, then took out a pensieve from the shelf behind the podium, and placed the pensieve on the shelf in front of the podium. After putting it away, I poured the memory in the bottle into the basin.

This memory of Zhang Xu is different from the previous memories. This is what he learned after consulting Dumbledore before. The person who enters the pensieve is no longer watching the live video from the side, but is interacting with him from a first-person perspective. The owner of the memory feels it personally.

Zhang Xu himself did not expect that this magic filled with car exhaust would actually be used in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

"Who comes first?" Snape asked, looking at the students.

Many students shuddered, remembering the painful spider that the fake Moody used to demonstrate the Cruciatus Curse to them in this classroom two years ago.

The first student named by Snape was Draco Malfoy.

Xiao Ma walked to the podium tremblingly, and put his face into the pensieve under the attention of the students.

As a result, Malfoy quickly stood up with a loud yell, and then his legs gave way and he sat directly on the ground. His originally pale face was now completely pale, his head was covered with sweat, and his whole body was shaking.

Zhang Xu estimated the time and found that he had experienced two or three rounds of the Cruciatus Curse.

The next student named by Snape was Ron.

Ron did much better than Malfoy, and it took about six or seven rounds of the Cruciatus Curse to escape from the Pensieve.

After these two people experienced it, Snape stopped asking other students to continue the experience. He said: "Everyone has seen that the dark magic you are about to face is so dangerous and vicious."

Then Snape put away the pensieve and continued: "Okay, I think you are still unfamiliar with silent spells. So, what are the benefits of silent spells?"

Zhang Xu snatched the question from Hermione's hand and replied: "By not chanting the spell out loud when casting, you can achieve unexpected effects. You can even make the spell you recite different from the actual spell used. Two spells.”

"The answer is basically correct," Snape said. "Plus five points for Ravenclaw."

Then Snape continued: "The silent spell requires strong concentration and willpower, and not everyone can do it."

Snape then divided the students into two groups and asked them to try one to attack and one to defend.

Zhang Xu was randomly paired with Padma Patil.

Padma's two spells made a sound, and were blocked by Zhang Xu's silent armor spell.

Seeing that Padma was a little anxious, Zhang Xu said to her: "Don't be nervous, use your best and most skilled magic spell. Don't deliberately make no sound, you can recite the spell softly first and feel the flow of magic carefully. , and then recite the magic spell in an increasingly soft voice when casting the spell. In the end, the magic spell is only recited in the mind without making any sound from the mouth."

Zhang Xu did not cover up his voice deliberately. After hearing this, the students around him began to try the method Zhang Xu said.

They have seen that Zhang Xu has mastered the silent spell a long time ago, so they think it is definitely right to do what Zhang Xu said.

Snape also heard Zhang Xu's words not far away, glanced at him and said nothing.

Padma adjusted her mood, waved her wand and shot her best spell at Zhang Xu.

(〃'▽'〃)?—☆···??How cold is it??

When Padma waved her wand, Zhang Xu cast an iron armor spell on himself.

When Padma cast the spell this time, she recited the spell very softly. Zhang Xu, who was standing opposite her, only saw her small mouth move. If you weren't paying attention, you wouldn't hear her reciting the spell at all.

Padma's curse hit Zhang Xu's armor and bounced away with a "bang".

When there were still ten minutes left before the end of get out of class, Padma successfully completed the spell without opening her mouth slightly.

But Padma's success was accompanied by the fact that many students were hit by the bounced spell and fell into the state of "I was playing in the mud in the Northeast."

This forced Zhang Xu to use the petrification spell to immobilize the dancing students first, and then undo the spell on them.

Just when get out of class was about to end, a loud "bang" sound attracted Zhang Xu's attention. He turned around and saw that Harry finally had a conflict with Snape.

After class, Zhang Xu was stopped in the corridor by two sisters, Parvati Patil and Padma Patil.

The twin sisters looked at the students coming and going around them, and seemed to swallow their prepared words.

Padma Patil, who is more familiar with Zhang Xu, said in a low voice: "Are you free tonight, Zhang? We have something to tell you."

Zhang Xu looked at the two sisters who were hesitant to speak, and remembered that Padma seemed to have something to say to him in the common room last night, so he said to them: "Then at eight o'clock tonight, Come to the professor’s dormitory where I used to live, where I will be living recently.”

After getting Zhang Xu's answer, the twin sisters left.
