Chapter 38 The cat is really a liquid

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Never have any hope for good luck in life.

Only in this way, when good luck does not come, you will not feel so lost.

After experiencing Tuesday's astronomy class, Zheng Qing had a deeper understanding of this motto - Professor Emma did not forget to assign homework to the students of Astronomy Class 08-1, as the young public-funded students hoped.

, On the contrary, because she was assigning homework to Zheng Qing and others, the old lady remembered that there was no homework left in that class in the morning, so she flew a paper crane and added an additional task to the classmates in that class.

Zheng Qing couldn't help but mourn for a second of silence for those children.

Never having one is not the worst thing.

Having it and then losing it—such as a weekend without magic writing homework—is the saddest thing.

Throughout Tuesday night, including Wednesday, Zheng Qing was frantically writing homework. This included a paper analyzing the structure of the Yuan Chen Guardian Curse required by Professor Yao, a 5,000-word magic text proposition writing required by Professor Emma, ​​and a 5,000-word magic essay required by Professor Yi.

Add new moving averages to the X-line chart, as well as new runes that Teacher Zhang requires everyone to master.

Comparatively speaking, Zheng Qing is a little more relaxed than others.

After all, he has learned all the runes.

Therefore, in Thursday's Potions class, he had more free time to complete Professor Li's analysis of the properties of potions, instead of being like Fatty Xin who was panicking in the desk drawer while taking Potions class.

Draw a few runes.

"You only need to spend half of your time reporting after class on your homework, so you don't have to work so hard." Zheng Qing looked at Fatty Xin's busy head and felt sad: "By the way, I'd like to remind you...

The air vents of your thunder talisman are not evenly tightened, and air will leak."

Air leakage means that the talisman cannot contain the inspiration and its effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

But for Fatty Xin, completing the assignment of the Talisman class is obviously more important than drawing a fully effective Talisman.

"As long as the drawing is correct."

He waved his hand nonchalantly and quietly stuffed the drawn talisman paper deep into the drawer. While poking a cat fruit in front of him, he rolled his eyes at Zheng Qing: "...you think everyone is like you.

, you feel like the sky is falling when you can’t draw a standard-level talisman? Just kidding... As long as I can draw such a talisman with all the requirements and tails, I will be very satisfied.”

The ginger-yellow cat fruit was poked with ripples by the fat man's fingers and trembled in the porcelain plate. Zheng Qing was frightened to see it.

The scientific name of the cat fruit is 'Mobli fruit', which is a magical plant produced in the Mobli Valley deep in the African continent. Because the sounds of 'mo' and 'cat' are similar, it gradually became known as 'Mobli fruit' from word of mouth.

Got the 'cat fruit'.

In potions class today, Professor Li taught everyone a new demulcent recipe, and cat fruit is one of the main ingredients in this demulcent. At the moment, most students are learning how to deal with cat fruit.

Although it is called a 'fruit' and has the characteristics of ordinary fruits, the cat fruit is different from most fruits. Because it hangs on the branches in a liquid spherical shape under normal temperature and pressure, and occasionally small insects are trapped in the fruit.

After the sweet temptation falls on the cat fruit, it will be drowned in the fruit and turn into nutrients for the growth of the cat fruit.

To a certain extent, cat fruit combines the multiple characteristics of plants, animals and non-living things, making it a very magical existence.

The immature cat fruit is transparent and hangs on the branches, like a clear spring; as time goes by, the nutrients become more and more abundant, and the color of the cat fruit will gradually deepen, from light yellow to turmeric, and then to dark.

Yellow, orange-red, deep red, or even purple-black.

Each color represents different effects and medicinal values.

For example, the colorless cat fruit is an excellent 'rootless water' and is the best neutralizing agent for preparing most pills; while the ripe purple and black cat fruit is a highly toxic substance and can be used externally.

It can rot the intestines and stomach, and taking it internally can even corrode the soul.

Turmeric cat fruit is an essential active ingredient in many placebos - emollient is one of them.

Demulcent is a potion that can be used to calm and soothe irritable emotions. It is said that fourth-year graduates use this potion in large quantities. In order to save the cost of young wizards, the school simply teaches the prescription to first-year students.

It is given to students so that they will not have to spend a lot of money to buy patent medicines in pharmacies when they are in senior year.

"Stop!" Zheng Qing lowered his voice and shouted: "The cat fruit is very hard to maintain after being separated from the branch, and it is easy to collapse... Do you want to deduct all the credits for this class?"

Fatty Xin shrugged nonchalantly.

"Don't worry, I can't be as good as you in drawing talismans, but I am an expert in handling potions." As he said that, he stretched out his stubby index finger and poked the trembling cat fruit left and right.

Then, as the two of them gaped, the cat fruit burst into a pool of ginger-yellow liquid.

Like a puddle of cat urine.

Zheng Qing had quick eyesight and quick hands. He pressed the Dharma book with one hand and used a spell to control the speed of the cat juice dispersion. With the other hand, he grabbed the largest graduated straw and tried hard to collect every drop of precious concoction.

At the same time, he raised his head and looked at the fat man, glaring angrily: "What are you doing standing there? Hurry and deal with the other main medicines!"

The fat man didn't understand, and without saying a word, he went to grind marshmallow roots with a frown on his face.

When Zheng Qing finished collecting the remaining cat fruit liquid and turned to look at Fatty's workbench, he saw that the marshmallow root in Fatty's hand had not been halfway processed.

"You can use hellebore, it will be much easier to deal with." The public student complained: "Why do you have to choose a difficult solution?"

Ordinary demulcents use hellebore. If too much hellebore is used, the user will easily fall into drowsiness and irreversible drowsiness. Advanced demulcents use marshmallow root and can treat many serious illnesses including werewolf mania.

Since there are two versions, 'normal' and 'advanced', there are naturally differences in production technology.

Helleborus only needs to be cut into 1/3-inch dices, then put into a roller and grind it clockwise five and a half times at a constant speed. The juice will be clear and odorless and can be used as medicine normally.

The marshmallow root needs to be finely chopped with a silver knife, and ground finely in a stone trough. The particles should be of average size before use. If the particles are uneven, the final emollient will not only not relieve the irritable mood,

On the contrary, it may make the user feel depressed and depressed.

"Because we don't have enough cat juice," Fatty Xin replied weakly: "If we use hellebore to prepare medicine, the reaction may not be thorough enough..."

Zheng Qing believed in this judgment.

"Where's the doctor?" He turned to ask about Xiao Xiao's whereabouts.

If Xiao Xiao had been working with him to handle the potions today, he would definitely not be in the same hectic situation as before.

"I asked for leave to go to the library. It is said that he thought of a new divination method that might be useful." Fatty Xin continued to answer in a small voice.

Zheng Qing fell silent immediately.

Linguo's black goat has never been found.

As the person in charge of fortune-telling and finding sheep, Xiao Xiao has always been under great pressure.

"It's good to be a top student." After a long silence, the young public-sponsored student finally sighed with emotion: "I can take leave casually and never worry about not being able to complete my homework..."

The fat man rolled his eyes.

Why didn't I see you so humble in the Talisman class?
