Chapter 152 Cultural Differences in China’s Magical World
"Are they all wizards?" Andy asked curiously.
Zhang Qiu shook his head, "No, they are all ordinary people."
"Then have you found the magic world in Huaguo?" Andy asked with some expectation.
Compared with other things, the magic world of Huaguo is what Andy cares most about.The magic there... or Taoism?Will it be different from the West?
"Of course!"
Zhang Qiu said proudly, "I'm a witch. When I travel to Huaguo, I need to go through the formalities at the Ministry of Magic. As soon as I got off the plane in Huaguo, the staff of the Ministry of Magic found me."
"However, it doesn't seem to be called the Ministry of Magic over there, uh... I don't know how to translate it."
Andy hurriedly asked: "What's the situation in the magic world over there? Is it the same as ours?"
Zhang Qiu explained: "Huaguo's magic world is very different from ours. They also have magic schools, but they were only established in the last few decades."
"In ancient times, the magic world of China was inherited in the form of sects, and they did not recruit students from the Muggle world."
Andy nodded, this was pretty much what Andy had thought before.
There are great cultural differences between the East and the West.
And according to the information that Andy has, the magic world on the Huaguo side was hidden thousands of years ago, and there was no such thing as a 'school' at that time.
"Qiu, have you ever seen them cast magic?" Andy asked curiously.
"Yeah! I met him once."
Zhang Qiu said: "However, they don't use magic wands to cast spells, but use a kind of wooden sword. Although the shape is somewhat different, I think it should be no different from magic wands."
Mahogany sword?
Maybe the peach wood sword is just one of them, after all, it's just a Muggle term.
Later, Zhang Qiu talked about her various experiences in the Chinese magic world.Andy thought it would be great if made into a movie.
In ancient times, the Chinese magic world has always been inherited in the form of sects.After being in line with international standards, the magic world of Huaguo has also made many reforms, established several magic schools, and began to recruit students from the Muggle world.
Unlike the British magical world where there are only two shopping streets, Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley, there are many wizards in China, so many big cities in China have gathering places for wizards.
"Hua Guo attaches great importance to the inheritance of magic knowledge, and I can only buy the most basic magic books in bookstores." Speaking of this, Zhang Qiu still feels a little regretful.
"correct!"
Zhang Qiu suddenly asked: "The books I bought this time are all in Chinese. How is your Chinese learning going?"
Is this still worth learning?
Do you know your mother tongue?
"You learned pretty well." Andy smiled.
Zhang Qiu had a look of disbelief, "Chinese is very difficult, especially these magic books, even my parents can't understand what is written on them."
Andy raised his eyebrows unexpectedly.
Could it be... is it written in classical Chinese?
Andy thought of several Daoist scriptures he had read on the Internet in his previous life. He really knew every word, but he didn't know what it meant when he put them together.
wow-
The carriage door was opened.
"Hi! Andy, Qiu, hello everyone."
Hermione walked into the carriage, "You guys are here so early!"
As she spoke, Hermione pulled out her wand.
"Wingardim, Leviosa!"
Putting the suitcase away, Hermione looked left and right, but there was no expression on the back, as if sitting next to Andy very naturally.
Seeing this, Zhang Qiu couldn't help covering his mouth and chuckling.
But she soon stopped laughing.
"Qiu, have you found the magic world in China? How is it there? Is it much different from ours?"
Like a machine gun, Hermione asked several questions in a row, "Have you ever seen the magic of Huaguo? I checked it out during the holidays. The culture of Huaguo is very different from ours..."
Zhang Qiu was a little overwhelmed by the questioning.
She was just about to answer, but suddenly thought of Cedric.
Shouldn't you wait for Cedric to come over and ask her again?
"Let's talk about it together after Cedric comes over." Zhang Qiu said with some headaches.
"Let me tell you!"
Andy happily accepted this task, "Huaguo is different from us, they are sects..."
As the topic opened, Zhang Qiu also added a few sentences from time to time.
Generally speaking, the situation in Huaguo's magic world is similar to what Andy thought. With the integration with international standards, many reform measures have been made there.
"Andy, tell me, after we graduate, can we go to Huaguo for a trip?"
Hermione said with some expectation: "That is an ancient country, so it should hide a lot of secrets, right?"
"Okay!" To be honest, Andy really wanted to go back and take a look, but that would have to wait until after graduation.
"correct!"
Zhang Qiu suddenly said: "The books I bought for you are in the suitcase, and I will give them to you when I get to Hogwarts!"
"Thank you!" Andy said gratefully.
wow-
Just as he was talking, Cedric suddenly opened the door of the carriage.
Glancing at the seats in the car, Cedric gave Andy a 'well done' look.
Andy sat with Hermione, so couldn't he sit with Zhang Qiu?
then……
"Qiu, have you found the magic world in Huaguo?" Cedric asked enthusiastically.
This summer vacation, he did a lot of homework.
Zhang Qiu: "..."
There is no way, Zhang Qiu can only tell the story again.However, what she knew was only the general situation, and that was the content after all.
"Qiu, have you ever visited the sects in Huaguo?"
Hermione said curiously: "It's unimaginable that after joining the sect, you will have to serve the sect for the rest of your life."
Cedric guessed: "Sects are similar to schools, right? Maybe the schools in Huaguo have their own business."
"Just like our dean, Professor Sprout is responsible for the herb growing room in Hogwarts. If the scale is expanded, it can also bring benefits to the school."
Hermione nodded, "If that's the case, Professor Snape can also bring a lot of benefits to the school."
Cedric said: "If the students of the Huaguo Sect can be in charge of the sect's business after graduation, it seems not bad if you think about it carefully."
Hermione thought about that pattern carefully, and then nodded in agreement.
woohoo-
The train moved on.
Andy leaned back on the chair, looking at the receding scenery outside the window, while chatting with Hermione and the other three from time to time.
Everyone is very interested in the magic world of Huaguo.
It's a pity that Zhang Qiu doesn't know much information.
After all, she is only a 13-year-old girl, and her family cannot rest assured that she will go out alone.Unless his parents had time, it would be difficult for Zhang Qiu to get in touch with the magic world in Huaguo.
"What's that?" Andy suddenly exclaimed.
Hermione, Zhang Qiu, and Cedric looked over at the same time.
Outside the car window, a green car was flying in the sky, and a few excited shouts could be heard faintly in the car.
"Are they all wizards?" Andy asked curiously.
Zhang Qiu shook his head, "No, they are all ordinary people."
"Then have you found the magic world in Huaguo?" Andy asked with some expectation.
