A group of little cubs were slipping and stumbling forward. In Qingqing Potter's opinion, there should be a steep, narrow, downhill path under their feet. It was dark on both sides of the path, and no one spoke, except for Neville's nose.

, the sound of sucking occasionally.

Hagrid turned back and shouted to the freshmen behind him: "Turn around this corner, and you will soon see Hogwarts for the first time."

Sure enough, when I turned the corner, my eyes suddenly lit up, and all the new students said in unison: "Oh~." The rock wool was a shining black lake, and on the other side was a towering castle on a high hillside.

There are many spiers on the castle, and the windows twinkle under the stars.

Hagrid turned back again and shouted: "Each boat can't have more than four people!" Qingqing was still a bird, but this time Harry got on the boat, and Ron changed to the next boat for the sake of his own life.

Hagrid shouted loudly: "Have you all boarded the boat?" After shouting three times, he said: "Okay, let's move forward." A group of small boats immediately sailed forward across the mirror-flat lake. Everyone was

Silent and speechless, staring at the huge castle reaching into the sky.

As they approached the cliff where the castle was located, the castle seemed to tower above their heads. Hagrid shouted loudly: "Lower your head!" Everyone followed his prompts. The boat carried them through the ivy tent covering the front of the cliff.

The curtain comes to the secret open entrance.

A group of people followed a dark tunnel to the pier beneath the castle. After getting off the bus, they began to walk forward along a ground of gravel and pebbles.

When Hagrid was inspecting the empty ship, he asked loudly: "Wait, whose toad is this?"

Qingqing covered her face and said, "C, it's only been a day and I've lost you twice! Neville!"

Neville ran up to him very excitedly and said, "Oh thank God!" A group of people were helpless. They had already helped this guy find frogs twice.

Hagrid also shook his head helplessly, holding a lantern high in his hand, shining on a tunnel at the top of the mountain rock. A group of people walked and finally arrived at a flat and moist grassland in the shadow of the castle. A group of people looked at the huge giant in front of them.

At the oak door, Hagrid raised the lamp, waved it, and shouted: "Is everyone here? Neville, is your toad still there?"

Neville was very embarrassed, he had lost his toad twice, and the toad was also very embarrassed, because Qingqing looked at her at this time, and everyone heard: "Toads are equal to frogs, right? Frogs can be eaten, but can this guy be eaten?"

"

Obviously, a certain foodie planned to eat himself while Neville wasn't paying attention. Everyone heard: "It's okay, let the Rice King taste it first, and then we'll tell you if you can eat it."

A certain toad trembled and hid in Neville's arms. Hagrid shook his head helplessly again. He raised his huge fist, knocked on the castle door three times.

The door immediately opened, and a tall black-haired witch wearing emerald green robes stood in front of the door. Her expression was serious. No matter who saw it, they would think that this woman was difficult to deal with. This woman was Gryffindor.

Dean, Professor McGonagall.

Hagrid said to her: "First-year student, Professor McGonagall."

Professor McGonagall said politely: "Thank you, Hagrid. Leave it to me to take over when you get here."

Qingqing jumped straight into Harry's arms, and Professor McGonagall asked speechlessly: "Her?"

Harry said awkwardly: "Maybe he's not used to the temperature."

Mag shook his head, turned around and opened the door. This was a very large public hall. The stone walls were surrounded by blazing torches, and the ceiling was so high that the top was almost invisible.

In front of it is a luxurious marble staircase that leads directly to the upper floor. It only wanders around from time to time. Looking at it this way, it seems like a joke. They followed Professor McGonagall and walked along the stone floor. At the nearby dining tables, a group of classmates were chatting.

Buzzing.

Students from other classes in the school had already arrived, and Professor McGonagall took the first-year students to a small empty room at the other end of the hall. Everyone crowded in, rubbing shoulders and crowded together nervously.

, staring at everything around him carefully.

Professor McGonagall clapped her hands and said: "Welcome to Hogwarts. The opening banquet is about to begin. Before you go to the restaurant to sit down, you must first determine which house you will enter. Classification is very important.

"The names of the four houses are: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin. Each house has its own glorious history and has cultivated outstanding wizards and witches. You are here in Ho

"In a few minutes, the sorting ceremony will be held in front of all the teachers and students of the school. I suggest that you tidy up and feel refreshed while waiting."

She looked at the students with stern eyes, and then said: "I will come to pick you up when the other side is ready. Please keep quiet while waiting." After she left the room, everyone relaxed for a short time.

Take a breath of air.

Ron said nervously: "I heard from Fred that the sorting test was very harmful to us, but I think he was joking?"

The people around were very nervous, except Qingqing, who was yawning. Just when the atmosphere in the room was tense, several people suddenly appeared and screamed: "Ah!"

A group of people turned around and asked, "What is that?" A group of people looked at more than twenty ghosts, white and translucent, that suddenly appeared from the wall, walking around the whole room, and whispering to each other.

A chubby child-like ghost said: "We should forgive, we should forget, I say, we should give him another chance. My good boy, haven't we given Peeves enough opportunities? But he gave us all

The nickname is too ugly. You know, he's not even a ghost. I said, what are you doing here?"

A ghost wearing a 16th or 17th century wheel-neck tights said: "New life!"

The fat ghost from before said: "I think you are probably preparing to take the test?

Qingqing was annoyed by their noise, so she took a deep breath and said, "Get out of here, or I'll kill you!" A group of ghosts looked at her. She was now in the form of a bird. She spread her wings, and the wings suddenly jumped with red lotus.
