Soaring at Hogwarts

Although there is no follow-up content, Ian can deduce from what has emerged that the so-called external alchemy, or "alchemy", is not the best method in the eyes of senior Li Daochun.

Taking out a notebook, Ian wrote down "Zhonghe Collection" on it, and after thinking about it, he added "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Qi".

"Zhongheji" may not be found in the UK, but "Shen Tongqi" is very famous, so maybe it can be found.As the famous ancestral scripture of Waidan, it is good to read it.

Back to The Testament of Nicholas.

"'Doctor Ansai told me that the meaning of the picture of King Herod slaughtering the Holy Infant is to add mercury to the purest baby blood'?" Ian read in a ridiculous tone, "It's the same as using babies to refine medicine in Journey to the West. Like a monster..."

This example gave Ian a warning that not everyone who studies alchemy is on the right path.

If I want to hand over inner alchemy skills to others in the future, I must at least ensure that those people cannot actually use their physical heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys to refine medicine.

I learned a little bit about some argots in alchemy, such as the sun representing gold, the moon representing silver, and the symbols that resemble the Deathly Hallows: from the outside to the inside are circles, triangles, squares, and circles, which respectively symbolize air, fire, earth, and The four elements of water.

Ian looked at these with relish, heated up a sandwich in the microwave for lunch, and read a book all afternoon.

It wasn't until evening came when Cloris and Haydn called him to eat that he returned home from the backyard.

At the dinner table, the Heseltines wondered when Samantha would write back.

"There will definitely be a letter from Sammy today." Haydn firmly believed.

Cloris said rationally: "Sammy will definitely write a letter today, but he probably won't be able to send it. The train takes a day, and I don't think owls can fly that fast."

Haydn retorted: "Owls generally can't deliver letters. An owl with magic will be faster."

"Ian," Haydn turned to his son, "make a prediction."

Ian picked at the beef stew and said vaguely: "I think mom is right."

Cloris glanced at Haydn proudly.

Ian’s trick for learning fooling around: If you can’t refuse someone else’s desire for a prophecy, just say something vague – it’s much more convenient at home, just support Cloris (laughs)

Anyway, Haydn didn't really intend to get a result on this kind of thing.

Cloris was half right. There were no owls for one day on September [-]nd, but the owls came early the next morning.

Agatha fluttered at Ian's window, waking him up.

When Ian opened the window sleepily, Agatha threw the letter on his table and began to chase him "intimately" and peck at it.

"Ouch, ouch. Agatha, what are you doing?"

Ian jumped onto the bed and wrapped himself in the quilt.

"I know! Samantha asked you to do it, didn't she?"

Agatha barked twice happily.

"Okay, okay. I have received her message, please stop!"

Hiding under the covers, Ian heard the sound of Agatha flapping her wings stopping, so he cautiously poked his head out, and was relieved when he found that Agatha made no further movements.

I went to get the letter and found that it only said "Haydn and Cloris" on it. Ian couldn't help but curl his lips.

Taking Agatha downstairs, Ian put the letter on the dining table.

"Samantha's letter."

Initially, the Heseltines were curious as to why he got up so early, but they all understood as soon as they saw Agatha.

They couldn't wait to open the letter.

It reads crookedly:

"Dear Mom and Dad:

I'm at Hogwarts and everything is fine.It is the night of September [-]nd, and I am lying on the bed writing to you.Please forgive me for writing today. I was really tired yesterday.

I took the train here for a day yesterday and I met a lot of people on it.Remember the lady who took Ian and me to buy wands in Diagon Alley?I met her children, Charlie, Percy, Fred and George.They also have an older brother who has graduated and two younger siblings who have not yet come to Hogwarts. They are really a big family!

School is fun inside.

Get off the train, follow the gamekeeper, cross the lake on the path, and then take a boat across the lake to reach Hogwarts.You would never imagine that Hogwarts is a big castle!I suspect it's been here for hundreds of years.

Sorting was held in the Great Hall of the Castle, and we only had to put on a dirty old hat, and the hat would call out the name of the house.It-maybe he should be used?I'm not very sure - when they met me, they called "Gryffindor". It is said that this house represents bravery, and every Gryffindor is full of courage, courage and boldness.I think this is a perfect fit for me.

Everything here is full of magic.

The ceiling of the Great Hall of Hogwarts has a direct view of the sky, and candles are floating in the air. As I passed by the armor, I heard it - er, or "him" - rattle. I doubt the armor would move, but Haven't seen it yet.

Oh, and the ghost, I asked Nick - he's Gryffindor's resident ghost, but maybe "it" should be used here?Forget it, never mind—how he died.He told me he died by having his head cut off.Actually, I wanted to ask him why he didn't die, but seeing that he wasn't very happy, I didn't ask.

There were no classes today so I went to visit the gamekeeper.His name is Hagrid, he’s very big, and he told me he has giant blood, which is so cool!I asked him about things in the Forbidden Forest, and it turned out that there really were centaurs, eight-eyed spiders and werewolves in there!Ian was actually right.Hagrid's rock cake is very hard, but it tastes good after being soaked in milk.

In the afternoon I walked around the castle, found some doors that required passwords, memorized the movement patterns of some moving stairs, and got tangled up in a blanket - thanks to the portrait next to it, the person in the painting ran to shout Please help, thank you to the senior who came over, otherwise I might have burned that blanket.

There will be class the day after tomorrow. Don’t worry. I decided to go to the library tomorrow to preview my homework.To be honest, I don't think this is very necessary, because little wizards my age don't know much about magic.Some of those who knew it went to Ravenclaw or Slytherin, and I guess not many of them knew it.

There are many things in the castle, but the letter is not long enough and I am a little sleepy, so I will stop here.I don't know when the letter will arrive, and I wonder where Hogwarts is in Scotland.I really hope I can take a vacation soon so that I can tell you about what happened here last day.

your daughter

Samantha

p.s. The branching is completely different from what Ian said, but I almost blew them up when I saw the ghosts.I think either his prophecy was wrong or he was lying to me. I highly doubt it was the latter, but please don't show him this letter. What if he really doesn't know?

pss. I got some rock pie and unicorn fur from Hagrid, I hope you like it. "

Haydn coughed twice.

"Just in case, Ian, do you know how Hogwarts is sorted?"

"Sorting Hat? What's wrong?"

"Oh, that's okay." Haydn handed over the letter, "Sammy also sent back a piece of unicorn hair, I think it is for you to make a wand."

The family knew that Ian was interested in wandology.

Cloris went to the kitchen to get some oatmeal nuts. Agatha had to treat her well after running so far overnight.

As for the rock biscuits, after Cloris tasted one, she decided to leave them all to Haydn.
