   Chapter 2643 Wind and Flowers (twenty-two)

   Almost every school year, Hogwarts has to change the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, which is already well known in the wizarding world.

   As he passed the floor where the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom was located, Pomona paused for a moment, hesitating whether it was time to check out the stone hand sculpture Remus borrowed from Boginbok.

   In fact, in the early days of Dumbledore's tenure, no one believed that the mysterious man could really curse a position. Even if there were frequent changes, there was still an endless stream of teachers who came to apply. After 1985, this legend became more and more true, and the qualifications of the applicants became worse and worse.

  The Defence Against the Dark Arts professor in 1984 was named Patricia Linn (linn), who worked as a spell-breaker at the world-renowned Gringotts before she became a professor. Educated at Durmstrang, she was at the top of her class, worked in Gringotts, Sweden after graduation, and her spell-breaking adventures abroad eventually earned her a reputation, appearing in several newspaper articles , and also published a biography.

   She has a well-trained capuchin lemur as a pet, and this lemur is also an important companion on her adventurous journey, because it is small and flexible, and can get into gaps that people can't get into. It often stands on Patricia's shoulders and interacts with the students, and the students love it.

   After Phoebe is trapped in the portrait, Patricia feels the need to get involved. Defence Against the Dark Arts professors are supposed to be good at dealing with the Dark Arts, as many believe, Harry and Ron went to Lockhart immediately after finding out that Ginny was missing, but when they arrived at his office they found Lockhart preparing Running away, the suitcase is stuffed with his colorful clothes.

   However, it was tacitly believed at the time that she looked suspicious, more like a suspect than Snape, the former Death Eater who had just become a dean.

   Snape was educated at Hogwarts, Minerva and Feliwick taught him, and Patricia was a complete outsider. Patricia's departure was related to her colleague's incompatibility, but more importantly to her use of Legilimency with her students.

Snape was always threatening to put Veritaserum in the students' pumpkin juice, but he just said, Patricia actually used it, and in her explanation, it even counted in Durmstrang Not black magic.

   When she left, she also said that Hogwarts students would not even go to the Black Lake to swim in winter. Scandinavia is colder than Scotland, and there are people who swim through ice.

  Pomona was reminded of Draco Malfoy's small stature. Fortunately, he didn't actually go to Durmstrang to study.

   That incident was never settled, no suspects were caught, and Phoebe and Joey's parents didn't sue the school because they were Muggles. They thought Phoebe's change was because of school life, after all she had been held back for a year, which in the Muggle world meant bad grades. She didn't even show her report card to her parents when she got home, and her parents didn't force her.

   As for why Joey didn't say it, Pomona didn't know it. Joey's life was very smooth, full of sunshine and applause. Phoebe, on the other hand, was always gloomy and often looked at the portrait that had trapped her.

   Even the ghost sympathizes with her, Pomona always remembers Phoebe holding a stuffed toy, she is a little shy, and although not as lively as Joyner, she is also a girl who loves to laugh.

There is a fairy tale in which the protagonist is a naughty boy who can fly. His shadow was taken by a dog and returned to a family. In order to retrieve his shadow, he came to that family and met three children in the family. , and tempted the three children to go with him to his island and teach them to fly.

   One of the girls was the oldest and the only girl, so she was asked to be a mother.

She was a child herself, and soon she missed her mother too. With her mobilization, the children finally said goodbye to the island that brought them endless happiness and flew back home. Later, they all grew up and lost their flight. Only the boy who can fly will never grow up and never come home. He always takes the children away from the family outside and lets them go to the island to enjoy a free and happy time.

  But the children didn't know that when they played pirates and fairies on the island, their parents went crazy. A lot of people hate dark things, but the flying boy lost his shadow and cried, trying everything he could to glue it back.

In the aboriginal mythology, people also felt that there was only light and no darkness would be happier, so they begged the God of Creation to take back the night. As a result, the weather was extremely hot, and people couldn’t sleep. send it back.

   Instead of blindly rejecting the darkness, it is better to learn how to live with it.

Maybe you don't have the qualifications recognized by the other three colleges, but if you have an inclusive heart, then you are welcome to join Hufflepuff College, although others say it is a shelter for fools, maybe you will It was soon discovered that it was a nice place.

   "What are you doing standing here?"

   She was startled and turned around to find Snape standing on the grand staircase behind her.

   "The principal is looking for you," she said softly.

   As soon as her voice fell, the stairs moved again, and Snape followed the stairs to the stairs leading to the fourth floor.

The design was interesting, but it caused endless trouble for students who were rushing to class. Harry and Ron were late for the first class of the first day, even though they were not asleep or in front of the mirror. Waste too much time.

   When they arrived in the classroom, they thought the teacher was not here, but they didn't expect that the cat on the podium had become Minerva McGonagall, their dean.

   Snape didn't go down the stairs to the fourth floor, and then circled back to the third floor, he directly turned into a cloud of black smoke and flew to the third floor.

   He put on the cape again, and the shadow completely enveloped her.

   "What were you thinking just now?" he said softly.

   "Why do you ask that?" she asked.

   "You look like you're saying 'I didn't think about it sooner'," he said.

   "Remember Patricia's Lemur?" Pomona said. "Don't you think it's too smart?"

  Snape said nothing.

   "None of us thought that Ron's rat was an illegal Animagus, would it..."

   "Not everyone is like Peter Pedirou and needs to be a mouse to hide." Snape interrupted her.

   "But people practice Animagus, not just to hide," Pomona countered.

   "What do you mean?" Snape asked.

   "It's like the student Beauxbatons who came to find the Nickelodeon Cup, and they have what they want in this castle," Pomona said.

   "What would it be?" Snape asked.

   "How do I know." She rolled her eyes, "Do you know where Patricia Lynne is now?"

   Snape wrapped his robe tightly, looking like a bat. "How many secrets are there in this castle?"

   "Can you tell me if the basilisk is male or female?" Pomona said with a smile.

   "Is that important?" He also replied with a smile.

   "I just want to figure out one thing."

   "That job was supposed to be done by the three of us." Snape said triumphantly, "Maybe you can tell me why it became a matter between me and Felix?"

   "Don't be so stingy!"

   "Don't forget about tomorrow." He reminded "Don't be late."

   Then he turned into a black smoke and came to the opposite stairs like an apparition, and then walked up the stairs, looking imposing and elegant, completely without the "snotty" temperament of his childhood.

===================================================== =========

François Severin Marceau-de Graviere, the son of a robe nobleman, was supposed to receive a legal education and succeed his father as a judge, but at the age of 16 he chose to join the army and joined the army. Savoy-Galinan regiment. During his vacation in Paris in 1789, he came across the storming of the Bastille, after which he returned to his hometown as a veteran.

  Before the war officially came, the soldier was just a profession. Ordinary people could resign and quit, but could soldiers?

   Soon François returned to the barracks against the objections of his family, serving as a training officer and later a captain in the National Guard.

   In 1792 he participated in the defense of Verdun, and it was his troops who were ordered to surrender to Prussia, which aroused the wrath of the revolutionary authorities and disbanded his troops.

Verdun means strong fortress in Latin. It was first built by the Gauls. It has been famous since 1200 for almonds and marzipan, which were distributed at the baptism of French princes. Someone also posted.

Before the opening ceremony of the canal, which was smashed by the assassination, many people received small packages containing marzipan, soap and a small golden bee. No one said what it was, but the people who received it were very Clearly, everyone is tacit.

   The Battle of Verdun of World War I, known as the most expensive battle in history, was France's most formidable line of defense, surrounded by a succession of mighty forts.

  For the fortress-intensive area, it is unwise to bypass it, and the anti-French alliance in 1792 did not bypass the defense lines laid out by Louis XIV, and instead occupied them, and did not follow the open thoroughfare to Paris.

  Why do you fight like this? When you go to the military school, you will know that the Battle of Verdun in the First World War was one of the most tragic "meat grinder" battles. Prussia experienced several "meat grinder" battles in the era of Frederick the Great. Poets Poems can be written, but he is not the one who bleeds anyway.

   If the Prussians attacked, Verdun could also be captured, but it would cause huge casualties, not to mention that Marie Antoinette was still alive at that time.

   After so many years of fighting, everyone has forgotten the spirit of chivalry. Austria married the princess to marry the princess, and Austria and France dealt with Prussia together. It's better now that Prussia and Austria are allied to fight France.

   In short, the Prussians passed the indestructible Verdun line of defense. In 1793, François was investigated by the newly appointed Jacobins. After his release, he was immediately sent to the Vendée to deal with the royalists.

   When Napoleon was in the battle of Toulon, he did not liquidate the noble officers in the army with the commissioner. He felt that the most urgent task was to keep "Little Gibraltar".

   When he was idle in Paris, he actually had the opportunity to go to the Vendée, but he felt that his profession was of little use, and there was no need for artillery there.

During the war, François rescued the national representative who was deeply surrounded by the enemy, thus making himself stand out. The National Assembly issued a thank you to him, and he quickly rose. Bell became a friend.

On his way back to Paris on vacation in 1794, he met a young old noblewoman, Angelique de Meslier, who soon fell in love, but even with his help he could not bring her back from her life. Freed from the guillotine, even himself and Kleber needed the asylum of the National Representative to avoid arrest and execution.

   After spending the winters of 1793 and 1794 in Paris, Francois set out again, fighting alongside Kleber until the Battle of Limburg.

  Limburg was located east of the Black Forest, and in the late summer of that year, Archduke Karl defeated Jourdan, causing the French to retreat to the banks of the Lahn, and Archduke Karl attacked Limburg's French center. In this attack, Francois was mortally wounded and died at the age of 27. The Austrians and the French competed to commemorate the dead general, whose body was burned to ashes and buried under the Pyramid of Koblenz designed by Kleiber.

   Short, brave, glorious was his career, his mourners were his friend and foe, his soul was white, so people wept for him.

   In fact, on the way here, Raggett thought about letting the Netherlands enjoy the same conditions as Belgium without providing a "blood supply", but he quickly knew that this was impossible.

  If France is in chaos again, the whole of Europe will fall into war again, and it is impossible for the Netherlands not to recruit troops.

At that time, the uniforms of the French army were blue. In addition to indigo, there was also a dye, isatis, which could also be dyed blue, but its price was relatively low. It was herbal rather than woody, and it dyed blue. Not as pure as indigo, as long as you don't pick and choose, you can wear it.

   For soldiers, cigarettes are a necessity. After smoking, people will relax for a while and fall asleep easily. Otherwise, they will be tense all the time and will not be able to fall asleep at all.

  Civilian cigarettes are very expensive, and military cigarettes and ammunition are allotted, but who would join the army for free cigarettes?

   Wars are easy to start, but hard to end. But the military career is definitely not the same as the life Xiaobailian lived in the back, and there are still many people who yearn for it.

   Compared with worthless, a little use value is also "value". The light extinguisher that Albus left to Ron seems to be worthless. What else can you do other than turn off the light?

   It is actually like a lighter used during the First Century War. Pomona intends to imitate it to prevent the volcanic eruption, because the ash blocks the sun, and the light emitted by the deluminator is used to provide plants with light for photosynthesis.

   She didn't know the existence of the mirror world at that time.

   Even if you develop photos, you need light, and a dark room just refuses natural light to enter.

   For her, it is more important to understand these principles than to appreciate the "fire" after the gem is cut. These are all hallucinations, and she needs to figure out how she got in to get out.

   She is afraid that, like Phoebe, she will stay in this world for so long that she loses contact with the original world.

  Lyle Mayer told her that people in this world don't really live and don't really die. A wrong concept can poison life, and she can't treat these "people" as lifeless.

   Maybe it's her who is wrong, but habit is formed. She really doesn't want to develop the habit of treating human life like a must, and waving a magic wand at will to take other people's lives.

   It was a real loss for her.

  In ancient Greek mythology, there is a goddess named Hecate, she walks outside the rules and has many names, such as the Threefold, Goddess of the Crossroads, Torchbearer, Soul of the World.

   When you stand at a crossroad and don’t know which direction to go, she will guide you.

  It is not your ability but your choice that determines who you become.

   And that's the pain of the limbo, even if the punishment seems to some to be just wandering aimlessly, much easier than other tortures in hell.

   As long as there is someone to accompany, even an enemy is better than a person. Of course, it may also be her wishful thinking. Some people would rather stay alone than stay with the enemy for a second. For him, that is the real hell.
