Standing in front of the door, Luna stretched out a pale hand. This hand moved in mid-air, not connected to the arm and body, which looked very weird. She knocked on the door, and in the silence it was like a cannonball exploding. The eagle's beak opened immediately, but instead of making a bird cry, it said in a soft, musical voice: "Phoenix or fire, which one comes first?"

"I think the answer is a cycle with no beginning." Luna said softly

"That makes sense," said the voice, and the door opened. Malfoy was about to follow in at this time, but found that the door was suddenly closed again, rejecting him.

"It seems that she doesn't welcome you. You may have to answer the questions." Luna leaned against the door in the lounge and said to the outside.

"How many times will a person experience death in a lifetime?" the eagle beak on the stone gate asked softly again.

"There will be three times, the first time after the person's body is disabled, the second time after the person's funeral, and the third time after the last person on earth has forgotten his existence." Just a moment's thought, Malfoy It was such a short answer.

"Slytherin student, you didn't get into Ravenclaw. It's really a loss for the college." Hawkzui said regretfully, "Go, this is the most satisfactory answer I've gotten since I asked this question."

Malfoy stepped aside and walked into the Ravenclaw common room.

"You actually got the answer! The first student who satisfies him on this question!" Luna's misty eyes widened at this moment, as if she had discovered a new continent.

"This question is often tested by our college students! It's just that no one has been able to give him a satisfactory answer. Often students are trapped outside because of this question. It will take a long time before it will ask us another question. , so that we have a chance to go in." Luna explained.

Malfoy also walked into Ravenclaw's common room at this time. At this time, there was no one in the lounge except him and Luna, and it seemed extremely empty.

"They all went to the library today. It is said that there is some kind of book club. I am not interested, so I didn't go. I think it would be more interesting to talk to the armor." Luna said, and then put the corn in her hand on a sheet On the table, he randomly found a soft sofa covered with blue patterns and sat down, waiting for Malfoy's evaluation. .

Malfoy looked at the room. There were elegant arched windows on the opposite wall, hung with blue and bronze silk. During the day, the Ravenclaw students here could see the crowds around them. Mountains, beautiful scenery. The ceiling was domed and painted with stars, and the dark blue carpet below was also covered with stars. There were tables, chairs, bookshelves, and a tall white marble statue in an alcove opposite the door.

Malfoy leaned over and looked up at the statue. It should be Rowena Ravenclaw. This woman seemed to be looking at him, with a teasing smile on her face. fear.

"Pretty, isn't it?" Luna said softly actively.

"That's right!" Luna patted her hands at this moment, then stood up. "You come here, maybe it can solve your doubts." Then she stretched out a finger, turned her head and said, pointing to a wall.

Malfoy looked over in the direction Luna said, and a huge notebook was spread out, with a very large stack of parchment on it, as if it had been nailed to the wall.

Other than that, there is nothing special about it, it looks very simple, there is not even a cover, and there is nothing written on it.

"It corresponds to the door just now. That door is responsible for asking questions, and this notebook is responsible for answering questions. We all call it the Book of Puzzles." Luna explained briskly, and then suddenly said in a singing tone: "The embodiment of wisdom is not only about solving problems, but asking a good question will also become a bright light on the way. "

"As long as you write a question on it with a quill, it will begin to answer." Luna took out a quill from her arms at this time, then tiptoed, leaned forward, and began to write and draw on it stand up. "

"Where can I find the Horned Snork?"

Soon, some round black handwriting was left on the pages of this large notebook, and then it was quickly hidden, and the notebook returned to a blank appearance.

no respond.

"Oh, maybe some questions are too difficult for it." Luna covered her mouth and said softly. "

"It's also possible that I'm too lazy to talk to you." Malfoy murmured silently in his heart. He guessed that maybe Luna had asked many times before. deep.

"However, it can basically answer other questions. Occasionally, when the homework assigned by the professors exceeds our level, we ask it, and it will answer." Luna added.

"Of course, sometimes the answers it gives are too standard, and are often found by professors. Even if they are all correct, the marks are still very low, so few students dare to use it to catch up with homework afterwards."

"Oh, by the way, it won't answer some questions. I remember that a student asked a question about how to use Avada Kedavra, and a line of words was displayed on it—a thirst for knowledge without a bottom line will lead to Destruction, and then Professor Flitwick arrived soon, took the student into the office and reprimanded him severely." Luna then added.

"Actually, I really want to visit Professor Flitwick's office. It is said that he can make those delicious pocket cakes dance in the tin can in the desk drawer. It must be very interesting." Then Luna changed into A longing expression.

Although Luna is very intelligent at certain times, she does not seem to be outstanding and excellent in the courses offered by Hogwarts, and naturally she does not receive special attention from the professor.

Ordinary teachers often only pay special attention to two kinds of students, the excellent students who are diligent and inquiring, and the thorny ones who are keen to break the rules.

As for the other students who are a bit mediocre, the professor can no longer allocate more energy to them.

"Besides, it is said that those who can stump it will be rewarded by it." Luna looked at Malfoy expectantly.

"Really." Malfoy looked at the notebook on the wall, and couldn't help showing a mysterious smile, and his heart was eager to try, and a mischievous idea rarely arose.

"Then I'll try it," Malfoy said.
