Enter Hogwarts

Chapter 8 Branch

Snape took the injured boy away.

Although he drank the antidote in time, it would definitely have some impact. What's more, Li Ang's bottle was not of standard measurement.

Hagrid patted Li Ang on the shoulder and led a group of young wizards down a narrow and steep path.

Li Ang rubbed his shoulders while following Hagrid. Not to mention, the lantern in his hand was quite bright. He wanted to...

"Watch your steps! It just rained yesterday..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Ang heard the sound of falling behind him.

"Hey, be careful, kid." Hagrid walked over in two steps and picked up the unfortunate guy.

After turning a corner, a moist and earthy breeze blew over.

A dock appeared in front of Li Ang.

Dozens of small boats are neatly lined up on the edge of the pier. Each boat has a lantern hanging on it. Dots of firelight are reflected on the dark lake. In the distance, there is the one I have seen in the text and on the screen. Countless times, the castle stood quietly, like the beginning of an adventure in a fairy tale.

Li Ang suddenly understood why the school required freshmen to take a boat to the castle every year.

The impact brought by such a picture is like taking the little wizard with him and eagerly embarking on a great adventure...

Even an older man like him, who is mentally in middle age, can't hold back his impulses, let alone the little wizards.

Sure enough, looking back, every little wizard had a flushed face and an expression of eagerness to try.

"Four people per boat, quick, move, little guys!"

Li Ang took the Bant brothers and Annie on a boat. The boat was very stable, and the expected shaking did not happen at all.

"The boat is sailing!" Hagrid looked back, took out a pink umbrella and knocked on the side of the boat. One by one, the boats left the dock and sailed slowly into the distance.

"It's so beautiful..." Li Ang stared at the castle in the distance obsessively and muttered to himself.

"Poppy, how are you?" Professor McGonagall looked at her old friend and asked.

"Don't worry, Minerva, he's fine. He was just bitten by a cobra."

"What's more, he took the antidote in time. If he drinks it again tonight, he'll be fine."

"Oh, thank God, I can't believe it...this happened on the train before school started!" Professor McGonagall said angrily.

"Okay, calm down, you can take him to the sorting now." Madam Pomfrey calmly put away the medicine bottle.

So, Li Ang, who had been standing at the door of the hall for 10 minutes, saw Professor McGonagall with a black face...

Maybe the ominous aura was too strong, and the little wizards were all silent.

"Now, everyone, line up in a row and follow me in. Remember, don't make any noise!"

The little wizards stood back one after another, and Li Ang became the first one.

Professor McGonagall's eyes fell on Leon's face, he softened somewhat, and he took the parchment and pushed open the door of the auditorium.

Li Ang took a deep breath and stepped into the auditorium.

Countless candles were floating in the air, and the ceiling was a bright starry sky. On both sides of four huge tables, seniors and seniors in school uniforms and pointed hats gathered their gazes.

Even Li Ang felt overwhelmed by the pressure.

The little wizards behind him were even more unbearable, and Li Ang even heard the sound of his teeth chattering.

At the end of the auditorium was the teacher's seat. Li Ang glanced over and knew that JK Rowling's mother-in-law had lied again!

There are at least a dozen professors in this school!

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is definitely the old bee sitting in the middle.

Professor McGonagall carefully placed a four-legged stool in front of the freshmen and placed a pointy magician's hat on the four-legged stool. Li Ang took a look at it and found that it was indeed shabby and old. He didn't know what it was. Not because Dumbledore often put it on his plate, the whole hat was even a little shiny...

Suddenly, the hat moved, and a crack like a human mouth opened on the edge.Then the hat began to sing.

"You may not think I'm beautiful, but don't judge a book by its appearance. If you can find a more beautiful hat than me, I can eat myself."

"You can make your bowler hat black and shiny, and your top silk hat smooth and straight. I am the magic hat used for testing at Hogwarts, so naturally I am superior to your hats."

"No idea hidden in your mind can escape my golden eyes and fiery eyes. Put it on and try it on me. I will tell you which college you should be assigned to."

"You may belong to Gryffindor, where there is bravery buried deep in the heart. Their courage, courage and boldness make Gryffindor outstanding; you may belong to Hufflepuff, where the people are upright and loyal. Hufflepuff The students are persevering and honest, not afraid of hard work; if you are smart, you may enter the wise old Ravenclaw, where wise and knowledgeable people will always meet their colleagues; maybe you will enter Slater Lin, you may make sincere friends here, but those cunning and insidious people will use all means to achieve their goals. Come and wear me! Don't be afraid! Don't panic! In my hands (Even though I don’t even have a hand) You’re absolutely safe because I’m a thinking magic hat!”

When the hat performance was over, the entire auditorium gave warm applause.It bowed to each of the four tables filled with students, then became motionless again.

"Whoever's name is called, come to the front, sit on a chair and put on the sorting hat."

"Anne Rose Augustus!"

"Rod Bunter!"

"Rona Bant!"

The two brothers, Lolita the Toady and Rice Tong, were sorted into Hufflepuff as expected, and the Sorting Hat didn't even hesitate for a second...

Then, amid the cheers of the Hufflepuff students, the three of them ran to the long table and stared at Li Ang.

"Leon Green!"

Soon, Li Ang's name was called, and Li Ang walked over calmly and sat on the chair. Although he had not been exposed to Occlumency yet, it didn't matter.

The minds of adults are complex enough. As long as he doesn't think about it deliberately, Li Ang feels that it will take some effort for the Sorting Hat to dig out the secrets from his brain.

"Oh, a little wizard who is extremely eager for knowledge, and has a calmness and ambition that are different from ordinary people..."

"Ravenclaw can enrich your brain, and Slytherin can make you reach glory. My child, which one do you want to go to?"

Li Ang wanted to speak to Ravenclaw, but as soon as he glanced away, he saw the nervous-looking Annie, the Bant brothers, and the table of foodies...

"Then let's go to Hufflepuff..."

As a result, the Sorting Hat hesitated.

"Well, kid, with all due respect, you don't have the qualities of a Hufflepuff at all..."

"To shut up!"

"Okay, as you wish..."

"Hufflepuffs!"

Hufflepuff let out even louder cheers. Everyone knew that the first-year student in front of them was equivalent to fifteen points of walking...

Leon returned the hat to Professor McGonagall and walked to Hufflepuff's long table under the displeased gaze of the other party.

"I knew it!" Anne snorted, "If you love eating so much, you must be a Hufflepuff!"

Li Ang curled his lips and turned his head, just in time to catch Dumbledore's gaze. He quickly nodded in greeting and looked away.

When the last student was sorted into houses, Dumbledore knocked on the golden cup in front of him and made a clear sound.

The auditorium fell silent.

Dumbledore stood up: "Welcome, children, welcome to Hogwarts."

"Before dinner begins, I, an old man, have a few more words to say. It won't take too long."

"First, freshmen, please note that our school strictly prohibits any student from entering or exiting the Forbidden Forest at will."

"Second, the administrator, Mr. Filch, reminded me to inform everyone that the use of Magic Season magic props and other prohibited items in the corridors is strictly prohibited."

“Finally, please remember our school’s motto: Do ​​not disturb the sleeping dragon.”

"Now, everyone enjoy a sumptuous dinner!"

With the last words, various delicacies appeared on the table.

Even if Li Ang looks at it as a member of the Celestial Dynasty, he can be considered rich.

Moreover, considering that he has been assigned to a foodie academy, Li Ang is not worried at all about his stomach and height in the next few years...
