Chinese students at Hogwarts

Chapter 132 What happened to my son wanting to raise a dragon?

Dumbledore was amused, and he also called himself a glass of lemonade:

"Zhang, drinking alcohol can't improve your magic ability, otherwise the most powerful people in the world would be a bunch of drunkards.

But in fact, really powerful wizards almost never drink alcohol, like me. "

Dumbledore winked at him, crossed his legs, crossed his hands on his knees, and spoke in a slightly more formal tone:

"Hagrid has already told the general situation.

Zhang, I have always believed that people need to be responsible for their own actions. I believe that even if the dragon goes crazy, you will be safe and sound, but this does not mean that your actions are not wrong.

The Ministry of Magic was originally prepared to strictly investigate private dragon-raising incidents and leaks. After all, smuggling and privately raising dragons is a very serious crime.

But the purebloods who rallied around your family used their influence to suppress the matter. "

Zhang Xiao fell silent.

If he is really a teenager, maybe not, he is definitely not convinced. I have the ability to protect myself, so I want you to mind your own business?

I can go wherever I like, this is my freedom!

But Zhang Xiao knew it in his heart, because he, Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape, Flitwick, Madam Hooch, and even Hagrid, these professors had been worrying about him for almost a night.

Dad was also moving. It looked like he was drunk and riding a dragon for a ride, but in fact there were many people involved behind the scenes.

Dumbledore looked at him and said seriously:

"Zhang, maybe you understand this truth, but I still want to tell you that power should be restrained. The more powerful people are, the more they need to restrain themselves.

I have met two talented young people. They both advocate using strength to solve all problems, but both the process and the results are regrettable.

It is the responsibility of the strong to restrain themselves.

Otherwise, no matter how powerful you are, you will only be a puppet of power. "

After saying this, he raised his cup and took a sip of water, pretending to be interested in the scenery outside the window, leaving enough time for Zhang Xiao to digest.

Dumbledore seemed to be saying something irrelevant, but in fact it was the essence of the problem.

Should you rely on your strength to do whatever you want, or should you restrain yourself?

Two talented young people? Grindelwald and Tom Riddle, right?

Zhang Xiao had no doubt that Dumbledore was sincere in what he said, because he was really restraining himself. Even if he was driven away in the Chamber of Secrets incident, he was still forced to make an alliance with the centaurs in the Forbidden Forest.

Even when Umbridge was allowed to act recklessly in school and make a mess, he endured it and did not use his own strength to solve it.

Obviously if he wanted to, he could snap his fingers and disperse Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest again, and he could also completely ignore the Ministry of Magic.

This is Dumbledore. Because he had seen the consequences of losing the restraint of his power, he tied himself up with a bunch of rules. He worked hard and finally risked his own life to barely solve Voldemort.

This is the greatest white wizard in the West - Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore.

Do I also want to imitate Dumbledore? Frame yourself with a bunch of rules and regulations? No matter how you look at it, it seems to be a bit about correcting the past, right?

No! My almighty ancestors have already given the answer to this question!

Zhang Xiao raised his head and said solemnly:

"Professor, you are right, power does need to be restrained, but have you ever considered a problem?"

Dumbledore looked like he was listening carefully, and he was also curious about Zhang Xiao's new opinions.

"What should you do if those who are weaker than you but want to do evil use the rules they set to force you?"

This question immediately made Dumbledore think deeply.

No need to think about it, Professor, you were forced into a corner several times, and the biggest resistance you ever had was to use Fox to escape, and you were forced to lose like crazy!

If you give that idiot Fudge a fight, he won't dare to do this to you.

There won’t be so many bullshit follow-up things.

"Maybe. I will choose to give in. This is better than breaking the rules that everyone agrees with myself."

Dumbledore sighed, looked at Zhang Xiao again, and asked with interest:

"It seems that you have different ideas?"

A smile appeared on Zhang Xiao's face, Principal, you don't know yet, do you?

China, especially Taoism, pays great attention to cultivating the mind!

"Strong people need restraint, but it is definitely not a rule set by a random ruler. They should have self-restraint and set a bottom line and code of conduct for themselves.

And this thing, in China we call it "

Zhang Xiao sat up straight:

"road!"

Dumbledore looked at the little second-year wizard in front of him and suddenly became deeply curious about Eastern education. These words and his views on power and restraint are definitely not what people of this age should have. .

He felt as if he didn't have to say anything anymore, and even thought that he should, like Lockhart, look for some Oriental books to read, even if they were Muggles.

Even if he is Dumbledore, he will have many cognitive obstacles. I am afraid that this principal has never known that there is actually a civilization in this world disguised as a country.

And their wisdom and hard work were condensed in Chinese characters and passed down to future generations.

Even the Taoist sect has always recognized the glory of ordinary people.

"Okay, it seems I'm overthinking it. You already have your own ideas, so what's next?

Zhang, let’s talk about the subsequent penalties. "

Dumbledore changed his posture and looked at Zhang Xiao with a smile, but said extremely ruthless words.

Zhang Xiao, who was still holding his head high and high-spirited, suddenly collapsed:

"ah?"

"First of all, it's Noble's question. Your father responded very quickly.

The first thing he asked was whether there were any casualties.

After being informed that no one was harmed, the Minister for Magic said in his office that his child wanted to get a Dipteron.

And he made full use of his influence to get you a special license from the Ministry of Magic to raise a dragon.

So, Norbert is now a legitimate Norwegian Ridgeback.

Zhang, you have a wonderful father who loves you very much. "

Damn it, dad is awesome! You can always trust Zhang Chengdao!

Zhang Xiao almost cheered, what is Daomen! Do you understand the value of Shaotianshi?

"Although I have the license, for the safety of the little wizard, Zhang, I can only ask you that Norbert must stay in the same shape as before.

If you didn't have magical props that can control the size, I'm afraid I can only put it in the Forbidden Forest even with a permit. "

Zhang Xiao nodded, this is what he should do.

"The second is your punishment. Since you have not caused any serious consequences, my punishment for you is"

Dumbledore stopped deliberately, and Zhang Xiao's heart started to rise. Why don't you pay the fine? It would save you trouble!

After appreciating the expression on Zhang Xiao's face with a wicked sense of humor, Dumbledore said:

"Because Mr. Filch was petrified, the sanitation situation in many places in our country has become worrying, so as a member of the academy, you should also contribute.

So my punishment for you is that you clean the corridor in front of the Slytherin common room three times a week. "

Fortunately, this punishment was not serious. Zhang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and used magic very quickly.

"No magic is allowed! Because Mr. Filch doesn't use magic either, I think you will be able to appreciate his hard work, and you will be able to restrain yourself when he causes trouble and pranks next time.

At least the dung bomb needs to be used with caution - although it is indeed a very interesting prop. "

Zhang Xiao's face fell again, and then he keenly grasped the key point:

"Professor...are you talking about you?"

Dumbledore held back his smile and said:

"That's right, your good friends Harry and Ron heard Hagrid's story about you flying on a dragon, and they ran out overnight to try to ride a dragon.

The Weasley twins held a huge 'Memory of Filch' event - complete with dung bombs.

There were also a dozen young couples who sneaked out at night, thinking that since Mr. Filch was away, no one would catch them wandering at night. "

Zhang Xiao went back satisfied.

When the sound of closing the door sounded, the portrait on the wall stopped watching the show. The portrait of Dippet asked curiously:

"Albus, why do you look so happy? Drinking alcohol! Riding a dragon! Leaking secrets! If you had given me these three things, I would have gotten out of Hogwarts!"

Dumbledore shook his head and said with a smile:

"Dippet, you shouldn't just see the wrong side. Think about it from another perspective. Would those evil wizards go out for a ride on a dragon after drinking too much?

Even the worst thing you can do is to find a Muggle airplane to race. Is there anything more joyful than making sure that a talented young man has not gone astray? "

The portraits fell into silence, and Dumbledore shook his crossed legs leisurely:

"Also, I found that the child's views on restraint may be more appropriate than mine. He became my teacher for once!"

And Zhang Xiao finally had the opportunity to carefully recall what happened after he was drunk that day.

As a result, he discovered something very embarrassing.

It seems that I drank too much.
