Because Hogwarts took action, almost all the wizards did not investigate the true identity of Tom.
This kind of unknown has further intensified the Pure-blood families people's fear of him. A young wizard who suddenly appears has such outstanding talent and strength. Obviously, it cannot be cultivated casually. In many families, if there is such an heir, they will be extremely happy.
But now, such a child has been sent to Hogwarts, which is obviously a signal.
However, it will obviously take some time to see clearly what it means.
Fortunately, after knowing that he was not easy to mess with, all temptations were put in the dark.
Even a guy who was originally intended to be a chess piece was held down by some people at this time.
This kind of calmness is like a constantly rotating vortex, constantly rolling inside Slytherin.
Of course, these things will not be ignored by Professor Slughorn. As the dean of Slytherin and a member of Sacred Twenty-Eight, he has obviously known everything for a long time.
Unlike others, he knew that Tom came from the Muggle orphanage.
But...
The problem was that, in his opinion, the orphanage itself was a little unusual. You know, the director gave him an unusual feeling when he first met it.
A Muggle gives him a feeling of threat, which is very weird in itself.
In addition, judging from his channels, some wizards sent by Grindelwald had an accident near the orphanage. These coincidences made him slightly uneasy.
As Potions Master, he knows best when to protect himself wisely.
In this case, the best way is never to continue to explore the truth, but to pass it by in confusion.
Moreover, since the principal has blocked the information, he, a small dean, should not know too much at all...
Thus, acquiescence was born among Slytherin...
One night passed, when all the waves seemed to have finally calmed down, Tom slowly woke up from his sleep without knowing anything.
If there was one thing that was better than the orphanage, it was that the beds, quilts and pillows here were all so soft. Just leaning on them made him feel comfortable, and even made him want to sleep for a while.
But the biological clock finally made him open his eyes.
He patted his face, then got out of bed and started to wash up.
He carefully placed the little snake from the pillow to the table nearby, and made a nest for him with his scarf.
After finishing washing, he walked out of the room. The lounge was still the same. Maybe it was because the sky was slightly brighter, but there was still no light in the lounge. This was something Tom was not used to.
During the long period of time when he was eleven years old, he was often taken to bask in the sun by Mo Fei.
Especially when the sun just comes out, Mo Fei always lets them enjoy the joy of the rising sun.
Tom has never understood what the sun is worth being happy about, but today, in this dim room, for the first time, he felt that the sun was still a very comfortable presence.
Since there is no sun here, then go to a place with sun...
Tom walked out of the lounge and walked through the long tunnel. I didn't feel it when I arrived yesterday, but now it seems that Slytherin Common Room is in such a dark place. It doesn't look like a place where people live, but more like a place where snakes hibernate.
Tom doesn't feel any discomfort at all. Instead, he feels as comfortable here as he is back at home.
After walking out of the tunnel, he walked directly out of the castle and came outside.
Following the path, he began to trot around the castle so that he could familiarize himself with the environment.
When you come to a strange place, there is nothing wrong with getting familiar with the environment first.
After running around the castle, he discovered some magical places.
First of all, there is a strong confusing effect outside this castle. Tom obviously planned to explore along the castle, but...
As he ran, he didn't seem to know where he was going. When he realized what he was doing, he was already on the other side of the castle.
In other words, he cannot understand the size of the castle by walking around it.
This castle seemed unwilling to let people know all its circumstances, but because of the connection between him and the castle, he was not directly stunned, but was taken to the back of the castle.
Since there is no way to measure the size of the castle, can we see some clues from the sky in the future?
The running and measuring matters came to an end for the time being, and he began to move around behind the castle.
Some of the fitness exercises taught by Mo Fei, such as Tai Chi, must be practiced by all children. There is no harm in practicing this kind of exercise. It can also continuously improve their body flexibility and speed, which is of great help to their health.
When Tom is fighting, he can easily knock the enemy away, and he has the skill of using force to fight.
After he was active for a while, breathing in the cool air outside, he suddenly smelled the smell of soil and fertilizer.
So, he followed the source of the smell and walked slowly over.
This smell is not pleasant, but all the children who have lived in orphanages are used to it.
Mo Fei Although later he did not plant a large number of crops behind the orphanage, at the beginning, he began to regard that land as an opportunity to turn over the orphanage.
He just didn't expect that he would raise his children just through cooking skills, so the land there became an experimental field, and he was experimenting with growing various crops.
Because of his experiments, the children also had to get used to handling crops.
Although Tom is the youngest, he has also received the most education in this area.
When Mo Fei helped guide, he also made some extensions based on the wizard's Herbology.
"Tom, I looked at the Herbology textbook of Hogwarts, and I can only say that they were right to put Herbology in the compulsory courses for little wizards..."
"Planting and cultivating Herbology itself is the best way to practice details, observation and patience. Although the Herbology that wizards come into contact with are those magical plants, Dittany, Mandrake... it is a bit too mysterious, but I think it is difficult for you to learn more advanced things when you are in school..."
"What your professor teaches you may be more about how to deal with some diseases, how to prepare some fertilizers, or how to deal with emergency situations..."
"These things are important, but they have never been the core of Herbology. The real core of Herbology is to understand the nature of Herbology... Take Dittany as an example. Since Essence of Dittany can be extracted from fresh Dittany leaves, and only the middle leaves can have the best effect, then why?"
"Why?" Tom thought of his doubts at that time.
"Of course, why the fresh and tender leaves in the middle layer can have a good therapeutic effect later on is because of what components are in the leaves, and under what conditions will these components decrease and when will they increase? Are there other parts with such components? What kind of effects do other parts have..."
"These things are what a Herbology expert should know, and if you want to cultivate high-yielding plants, this kind of detail is the key, rather than just learning those operations..."
Tom still remembers that in order to demonstrate it to him, Mo Fei pulled out a wheat straw from the side and then explained it bit by bit from the leaves to the stem and finally to the root system.
In the end, Mo Fei even asked him to taste the difference between each part with his mouth, and then watched him spitting out the soil from the roots. The dean smiled unusually happily, which seemed to become a little clear at this moment.
However, I have to say that he remembered that class very clearly.
