Chapter 36: Magic Potion and Spicy Hot Pot
The quiet History of Magic class was filled with questions, and the lively scene was like a fan meeting.
Not to mention Professor Binns, even Professor McGonagall, who happened to pass by, was confused.
She had taken the History of Magic class in the past, but she was also confused and half asleep, so she didn't know what the class was like.
But she heard the unreasonable laughter in the classroom, which made her almost think that these little wizards had sent Professor Binns, who was in a ghost state, away completely.
Otherwise, how could they be so happy?
It was indeed as the little wizard expected. Professor Binns was confused and couldn't tell the names of students and their colleges at all. He always got them wrong, but he didn't seem to be confused...
Because he could always shout accurately and forcefully: "Two points deducted from Slytherin!"
It seemed that it was all Slytherin's fault!
What a big hatred and resentment.
It's not that there was no "accidental injury" to the other three colleges, but when Slytherin's deduction points were far ahead, only the Serpentine College was injured.
After a class, Slytherin was deducted a full 150 points under the fierce attack of the little wizard of Gryffindor.
When the get out of class was over, everyone was crazy about this little trick to brush the score, and many students were looking forward to the history of magic.
Rolf became more famous. Even the portraits in Hogwarts Castle had heard of his name and wanted to meet this little wizard who made big news every day.
The fat lady of Gryffindor even changed the password to "Scamander" because she remembered a portrait of Scamander. The two had a wonderful night on the dragon.
But the price of this kind of fame is very bad. At noon in the hall, Professor Snape moved his eyes away from Harry's eyes and turned to Rolf.
This school year is a key year for Slytherin. They are striving for the seventh consecutive championship.
"Seven" is a magical number. In the history of Hogwarts, no college has ever been able to monopolize the college cup for seven consecutive years.
Professor Snape wants to challenge this record and add bricks and tiles to his small resume.
As the six-time champion of the College Cup, Slytherin is certainly strong, but the secret of their strength is not in scoring... but in deducting points!
Professor Snape is like a ruthless deducting machine. He walks around in his robe every day during class, and madly deducts points from other colleges.
In previous years, he only started to work hard after Christmas, but in order to ensure that there are no accidents this school year, he started to madly increase points at the beginning of the semester!
[As long as the scores of other colleges are deducted, Slytherin will naturally be the first]
It must be said that the effect of this concept is still immediate. In just a few days, Slytherin has firmly occupied the first place and opened up a big gap with the second place Ravenclaw.
But now, a history of magic class has made the Serpentine College drop to third place, which is only higher than the fourth Gryffindor. How can Snape not be angry!
As for why Gryffindor's score is so low?
Of course it was Professor Snape's precise attack, especially Harry was deducted 50 points by him in the first class.
Rolf felt very innocent.
The Deathly Hallows and the three Peverell brothers are real, so he is very interested in the reality of the Grim Reaper.
Coincidentally, Professor Binns talked about Gilgamesh's search for the Grim Reaper, so Rolf wanted to have a friendly academic discussion. Who would have thought that Professor Binns would deduct points and even pull a snake out of Slytherin.
Rolf didn't mean it, but as the initiator, he accidentally started the era of Slytherin's big deductions...
In addition to the dispute caused by Malfoy at the beginning of the school year, with Snape's character, he must settle all the new and old grudges in the Potions class!
When eating in the hall, many students came to comfort Rolf, as if his death sentence had been announced in advance.
Even Harry came over and comforted him with his own tragic experience, telling him to be strong and not to give up hope!
Harry can be regarded as a personal example, because Snape asked him many questions in the first class.
When answering, Harry also remembered Ron's advice not to open his eyes to look at Snape, but he was considered to be sleeping in class and deducted five points;
When Harry opened his eyes, Snape glared at the professor with the intention of intimidating him, and deducted another five points;
When Harry opened his eyes and did not look directly at Professor Snape, he was considered to be contemptuous of the professor and put an ugly face on him, and deducted another five points!
When Harry accidentally broke the narrow neck bottle containing potion, he was deducted five points for damaging public property; and just one minute later, Malfoy broke the bottle, but added five points.
The reason was that Malfoy assisted Snape in destroying the defective utensils and avoided a teaching accident.
So in the History of Magic class, Harry was the student who asked the most questions, just to repay Snape for the harm he brought to his young heart.
On Friday afternoon, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw ushered in the potion class, and the classroom was in a basement.
The whole room was decorated in a way that was as gloomy as possible. The air was filled with the smell of formalin, just like a morgue. Glass jars of various sizes were placed along the walls, and lifelike animal specimens were soaked in them.
Human skeletons were hung on the wall, and the lifeless empty eye sockets of the skulls were facing the students. When the little wizard approached, the skulls would suddenly laugh.
In the corner, there was a mummy, wrapped in cloth strips, revealing a dry face, two blushes, and a pale face. The inscription on it read:
Daily necessities.
"Professor...what's going on with the mummy..." McMillan raised his hand tremblingly to ask a question before going to class.
Professor Snape did not get angry, but explained patiently and uncharacteristically:
"This is a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor from a few years ago. He borrowed my room to brew the potion...but the steps were wrong, causing the potion to fail. After drinking it, he turned into a mummy."
"Magic potion...is it so dangerous?"
"No, it's not that dangerous..." Snape drawled his voice and sneered: "As long as you are not the stupid fools I often encounter, you are quite safe."
Many students swallowed their saliva. They obviously had a clear understanding of their own intelligence.
"Of course, even if you are an idiot, I promise not to turn you into mummies." Snape grinned:
"But whether you end up lying in the school hospital or not is not up to me. It depends on how smarter you are than the troll."
The little wizard was silent. Rolf glanced at Neville and found that his lips were white and his whole body was trembling.
"Are you okay?" He opened his mouth and asked silently.
Neville just shook his head, but shook even harder.
Snape started to pick up the list, and when he clicked on Neville, Neville was so frightened that he let out a long and ecstatic "Ah~" trill, just like the heroine in a romance movie who was stuck in the washing machine.
Snape stopped, his black eyes stared at Neville, and said coldly: "Mr. Longbottom, if you dare to make that sound again, be careful what I do..."
Neville was so nervous that he really wanted to say "yes", but when the words came to his lips, he trembled in ecstasy again:
"Ah ~ Professor Snape!"
Everyone did not dare to laugh out loud, for fear of being turned into a mummy by Professor Snape and then hung on the wall to become a new daily necessities, but they endured it very hard and their faces were distorted.
Snape dragged his robes and walked slowly to Neville, staring at him. Then the professor suddenly turned to look at Rove and said:
"Scamander, why don't you stop Longbottom? Seeing your classmates make a fool of themselves will show how good you are?
Five points for Hufflepuff! "
"..."
"What, you don't accept it?" Snape said in a low voice, "Yes, Rolf Scamander, the grandson of the famous Mr. Newt Scamander... I hope you will not be like your grandfather. Watts fired.”
Snape showed great aggression from the beginning. He waved his robe, strode back to the podium, and said in a hoarse voice:
"You are here to learn the ancient, precise and rigorous craft of potion preparation."
"What is a potion?"
"Broken internal organs, solidified blood, entangled tentacles, twisted plants, withered limbs, incomplete brains, scarlet fruits... tumbling in the opposition of red and white, silent in the blending of yellow and brown... these It is a timeless and beautiful art.”
Luofu licked his lips. For some reason, he thought of Malatang and hot pot.
hungry!
