Hogwarts, where the stars shine
Chapter 34, Quidditch game and retribution
Since November, the weather in Hogwarts has become colder and colder.
The distant mountains were shrouded in mist and gray, and the vast black lake was frozen, its surface as cold and hard as tempered steel.
One morning when the students woke up, they found that the campus was decorated in silvery white, like a beautiful world in a fairy tale book.Even Hagrid looks cute in his long moleskin coat.
With the arrival of winter, the new Quidditch season at Hogwarts has officially begun.
Only then did Mesa know that Marcus Flint also liked Quidditch and seemed to be pretty good at it.
It is said that Flint originally planned to participate in this year's academy team selection and wanted to become an official player.But because of Mesa's precise and elegant hospital kick, Flint missed the time for the selection of the hospital team and missed the opportunity to win glory for Slytherin.
No, it can't be said to gain glory, it should be to discredit Slytherin House.
As the most popular sport in the wizarding world and an event valued by all teachers and students at Hogwarts, the opening game of the Quidditch Cup has attracted even more attention. The school has also arranged a showdown between old enemies to increase the number of spectators in the opening game. point.
On the day of the game, the stadium was empty. All the teachers and students rushed into the stadium. Even the villagers of Hogsmeade came. The stands around the stadium were full of seats.
Mesa thought it would be a thrilling game, a Manchester United-Liverpool-like clash of sparks and earth.But this game disappointed Mesa and once again extinguished his enthusiasm for Quidditch.
From the moment Ms. Hooch blew the silver whistle and threw the Quaffle, the game took an irreversible turn.
Just 2 minutes into the game, Gryffindor goalkeeper Oliver Wood was hit by a Bludger. The long-handed newcomer missed the rest of the game.
Oliver Wood's injured departure set the tone for this explosive game.
From that moment on, the entire game was filled with fouls and all kinds of brutality.
Ms. Hooch's quick and loud whistle had to sound frequently. She interrupted the game again and again to sternly warn the Slytherin team for violent fouls.
But even if the game was interrupted, even if a penalty was awarded, Ms. Hooch still could not stop Slytherin from destroying Gryffindor.
Out of Ms. Hooch's sight, Bludgers, bats, fists, kicks, elbows and shoulders took turns.In order to win the game, the Slytherin team can be said to have done everything possible.
The Gryffindor players were like kites with broken strings or birds with broken wings, teetering precariously in the sky.
Even though Mesa is a Slytherin, even Mesa agrees that "victory is justice", even though Slytherin House won the final victory of the game, defeating its old enemy Gryffindor in a double sense.
But Mesa still has to say something fair: The Slytherin house team's style of play is really dirty. No wonder the players selected look like baboons.
South Pepe, North De Jong, Bruce Bowen, Bill Laimbeer, these famous stadium villains are simply weak compared to the Slytherin players.
Slytherin's batsman could not wait to replace his bat with a mace, and use each bat to kill a Gryffindor.
If he hadn't known anything about the Quidditch game in advance, and there were still four balls flying around on the field, Mesa would have thought that Quidditch was an irregular fighting game played on a broomstick!
I’ll give you Merlin!This is not a football match scene, this is just the arena!
This means there are no red and yellow cards, no technical fouls and unsportsmanlike fouls in Quidditch, otherwise there will not be a single Slytherin player left on the pitch.
Before all members of Slytherin were kicked off the field, all members of the Gryffindor team would definitely be sent to the school hospital to keep young Oliver Wood company.
Amid the cheers of the Slytherins and the boos of other houses, the score was finally fixed at 230 to 50. Slytherin House won the opening game by a huge score.
Gryffindor's Charlie Weasley was unable to turn the tide.
At the moment when he was about to catch the Golden Snitch, a bat hit Charlie Weasley accurately in the back of the head, preventing him from catching the Snitch at hand and letting go of the chance to turn defeat into victory.
In the stands around the stadium, the Slytherins celebrated their victory, singing to their heart's content or laughing loudly at their opponents.
Mesa, who was mixed in the crowd, was also celebrating the victory of this game, but he was unable to enjoy the fruits of victory wholeheartedly like others around him.
Mesa recognized the Slytherin house team as the winner today, but he didn't like the way Slytherin won.
Mesa not only cares about victory or defeat, but also pays attention to the process. The process of defeating his opponent is also a kind of enjoyment.However, Mesa would not stand on the high ground like a moral freak, loudly reprimanding Slytherin for being dirty and scolding them for their unscrupulous tactics.
Who made Quidditch not allowed to replace injured players who leave the field? Who made Quidditch have more than 700 types of fouls? Who made the penalty scale of Quidditch larger than the area of the field?
According to the penalty rules of the Quidditch game, players participating in the game can do almost anything they want on the pitch as long as they do not use their wands to cast curses on their opponents.
Even if the referee is whistled for a foul, let the opponent's chaser take a free throw.Anyway, no matter how serious the foul is, whether it is malicious or not, the player who commits the foul will not be sent off.
Using a flagrant foul and a free throw to exchange for an opponent's player being injured and leaving the field, in exchange for a favorable situation where one's own team plays more and plays less, this is a very cost-effective deal no matter how you think about it.
In a formal Quidditch game, what binds the players is not the rules of the game, but the moral principles in their hearts. So don't blame some players for having a low moral bottom line, or simply no bottom line.
If you want to blame, you can only blame the people who originally designed the rules of the game, blame the International Federation of Wizards Quidditch Committee for not revising the rules, and blame the International Quidditch Federation, which has the same function.
There is no need to use the body hair whistle of later generations, and there is no need to abandon physical confrontation and reduce the intensity of the game.
As long as Quidditch is like Muggle basketball and football, where players can be sent off for fouling and injured players are allowed to be replaced, who would dare to commit unscrupulous fouls?
If a player commits a foul during the game, he should pay the corresponding price.If you dare to commit a malicious foul, I will take out the ruby God of War card and leave without saying anything!
Under this kind of penalty scale, do you think the Slytherin players still dare to be so brutal?Even if you lend them ten more courage, they won't dare to continue what they did before.
It is precisely because of the penalty standards in the Quidditch game that are looser than the waistband of an old lady's cotton trousers that the violent playing style of the Slytherin players has become so popular and invincible.
All you can do is accuse the Slytherin players of having no bottom line, violating sportsmanship, and violating the spirit of competition, but you cannot question the victory they won.
Of course, it would be a real shame if the flagrant foul tactics failed to bring Slytherin a victory in this loose penalty environment.
Even the most die-hard Slytherin fans cannot accept this result. There is nothing more disgusting than this.
Amid the curses from Gryffindor and others, Slytherin held his head high and left the field proudly with the honor that belongs to the winner.
They won the crucial game, and no amount of scolding from their opponents would help. It could not change the fact that Slytherin led the standings, nor could it change their leading position in the Academy Cup.
Just when the Slytherins were about to continue their carnival, the team members collectively fell ill the next day and became seriously ill.
Fortunately, without any warning in advance, the team members suddenly fell ill and were admitted to the hospital. It didn't take much to think about it, but it was obvious that there was something fishy about it.It was as if they had done too many evil things, and coupled with yesterday's atrocities on the court, retribution suddenly came.
Suddenly, panic spread throughout the Slytherin dungeons.
