Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

In a valley among the Shiwandashan Mountains in southern Guangxi, there is a complex of buildings that occupies a large area. This is the branch of the High School Affiliated to Guangxi Xixiangtang Men's Vocational College. This is a school that specializes in training the younger generation of alchemists. .

After all, young people sometimes don't know what's important, so in order to prevent the program crew from collectively dying from overwork and other reasons, the government has set up this type of schools in sparsely populated areas.

In the principal's office in the school office building, principal Li Jiuxi sat behind his desk, his sharp eyes like a falcon looking up and down at Zhang Xu, who was standing at attention in front of his desk.

Since Zhang Xu came to the principal's office and introduced himself, Principal Li has been looking at him like this. Zhang Xu, who realized something was wrong, immediately stood at attention.

Zhang Xu has several friends who also study in this school, and he has heard about the upright and resolute principal in front of him. He wasn't worried that the principal was trying to punish him, because he didn't have any reason for it.

Just when Zhang Xu started to break into a cold sweat, Principal Li said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xu, can you explain why you came half a month later than the agreed reporting time?"

Zhang Xu said loudly: "Report to the principal, I encountered a hijacking when I returned to China, so I was delayed."

Principal Li sneered and said: "Didn't you solve the hijacking incident not long after the plane landed? It was broadcast in the eighth minute. How many ordinary people will never get the same treatment as in the first ten minutes."

Zhang Xu broke out in cold sweat at this moment. He couldn't watch it in Germany. After returning to China, he accompanied Furong for a day and then came to the school to report. He didn't have time to pay attention to the domestic reports on this matter.

"I don't think it's because the German people are so enthusiastic that you're happy here and don't miss Shu"? Principal Li continued to ask.

Just when Zhang Xu was about to explain, Principal Li stopped his defense with a wave of his hand and said: "The relevant departments have kept your student status in our school for six years without a trace of you. I won't ask about the specific reasons. . But now that you are back, in the less than three months left, I will strictly demand you according to our school's rules and regulations, is that okay?"

"If there's no problem, you can go to the Logistics Office to arrange the dormitories first, and then report to the Academic Affairs Office."

After Zhang Xu left the principal's office, he went to the logistics office on the first floor of the office building to receive his dormitory key and meal card, and then went to the academic affairs office upstairs to report. When he left the office building, the morning reading class had just ended.

In the classroom of Grade 3 on the sixth floor of the teaching building, there is an empty seat in the last row by the window, which is where students usually put their belongings.

Half a month ago, the class teacher asked everyone to put away the water cups, lunch boxes and other sundries placed there. According to legend, Zhang Xu, who only appeared on the list and had been on leave for ten thousand years, was coming back.

According to a classmate in the class who claimed to be the mysterious student Youzai, that classmate Zhang Xu went to study in the UK many years ago.

The curious students waited for half a month and no one showed up, so their thoughts faded away.

It’s not okay to be calm. I have to prepare for the second model of the college entrance examination. How can I still have time to care about that mysterious classmate.

Just as the students were putting away their books and preparing to take the first exam of the second model, a tall boy appeared at the door of the classroom. He stared at the door number for a while, then walked to the back door, entered through the back door and sat down. Go to the thousand-year-old sundries.

The next second, the entire classroom's eyes were focused on Zhang Xu.

Zhang Xu, who had just taken out the pencil case and put it on the desk, was stunned for a moment, then stood up and clasped his fists, and said to the classmates: "Hello, classmates, I am Zhang Xu. Uh... I was in the cafeteria on Friday for dinner. It’s my treat, if you don’t max out my meal card, you lose.”

┅┅

As a result, Zhang Xu almost lost that day...

During dinner time on the weekend, Zhang Xu and his classmates came to the third floor of the cafeteria. Unlike the meal windows on the first and second floors, this is a restaurant that can provide banquet services.

There were more than 40 people in Zhang Xu's class including him, and four tables were opened that day.

After learning from the exchanges in the past few days that Zhang Xu was a rich man who was not short of money, his new classmates did not save face for him and ordered the most expensive medicinal meal set among the four tables.

When Zhang Xu finished paying the bill, he still had enough money left in his meal card to buy a bowl of Erliang Laoyoufen for the next day's breakfast.

There is no evening study hall on Friday. Many students in the lower grades have gone home, but basically the graduating students will not leave school.

After a week of the second model exam, everyone had a rare meal to relax and unwind. A group of well-fed students walked back to the dormitory while listening to Zhang Xu bragging.

Because he did not receive a proper and systematic middle school education in China, Zhang Xu discovered in practice that he had shortcomings in some areas.

Now that Dumbledore had given him this opportunity, he decided to use the less than three months to return to school and try to make up for these shortcomings.

On Saturday, Zhang Xu, who had applied for extracurricular tutoring, arrived at the training ground early.

At half past eight, a short, chubby middle-aged man walked into the training ground, followed by an autonomous trolley.

Zhang Xu immediately came forward and said hello: "Hello, Teacher Xu, I'm sorry to trouble you today."

Xu Jian, the teacher of the formation class, looked at the student standing in front of him with a smile and said, "You are Zhang Xu. You are a good young man. You know how to make up for the lessons and you are motivated."

"First tell me how your self-study of formations went?"

Zhang Xu replied: "During the second model exam, I found that I basically mastered the theoretical knowledge, but had too little practical experience."

"Over the years, I have arranged an expulsion array, an exorcism array, and a large-scale enigma array around an old house. I also arranged a large-scale enigma array with a British teacher. The rest were all decorated with finished products."

"Then you set up these three formations first, and I'll see how your level is." Teacher Xu pointed to the cart filled with materials behind him and said with a smile.

Fifteen minutes later, Zhang Xu set up a expulsion formation about five meters in diameter in the center of the training ground using white marble bricks engraved with talismans, and then activated the formation.

These white marble bricks are standardized teaching aids for students to practice and teachers to teach.

Xu Jian walked around the edge of the formation, then stepped into the formation and wandered inside for two minutes before coming out.

The formations set up during teaching are generally not very powerful and have limited impact on people. At the same time, they can also make people feel how they operate.

After Xu Jian came out, he said to Zhang Xu: "It's okay. You can set up the other two formations, and then also set up the whirlwind formation that is the final question of this written test."

In the next hour or so, Zhang Xu arranged the other three formations according to the teacher's requirements.

After checking these formations, Xu Jian said to Zhang Xu who was standing aside: "On paper, you did a very good job and the layout was very textbook. And you are also a little smart and know how to check the teaching aids. The problematic teaching aids have undergone some necessary processing. Many students have ignored this point, and as a result, the effectiveness of the formations they arranged has been compromised."

"However, you ignored the mutual interference between the formations when setting up the formation. Now go to the expulsion formation and feel it. The feeling inside is different from the beginning."

"Although this point is not mentioned in the textbook, it is a problem often encountered in practical applications and in the examination room."

"Especially when there are so many students taking exams at the same time in the examination room, there are countless examples of the interaction between formations causing candidates to appear to be underperforming."

In the following time, Xu Jian took Zhang Xu into several formations and explained to him in detail some of the flaws that occurred when he arranged the formations, how to roughly judge the mutual influence between the formations, and how to proceed. Adjust accordingly.

By eleven-thirty, Zhang Xu had more than ten pages of notes recorded in his notebook.

Now he and Xu Jian were standing in the whirlwind formation. The wind of about level 5 was blowing around them, and several leaves were spinning around in the formation with the wind.

"Okay, you can adjust this formation yourself." Xu Jian said to Zhang Xu.

A minute later, Xu Jian shook his head and said to Zhang Xu, who was lying on the ground with a gray face and a gray head: "You only have half a bucket of water and you still want to imitate others in doing 'hot swapping'. Are you going to get bombed?"

"Get up, go to the cafeteria to eat first, and continue in the afternoon."

After Zhang Xu recovered, he stood up, cleaned the dust on his body, and followed Xu Jian out of the training ground dejectedly.
