Ever since Albert showed his talent in potions, Snape has never caused trouble to him again. It should be said that he has completely ignored him.
In the morning, after Potions class ended, Albert and George took advantage of their free time before lunch to go to the library and return the book "Simple Alchemy", and then borrowed another book on alchemy.
.
The name of the book is "Extraction, Separation and Potions".
Albert originally thought that this book was related to potions, but after flipping through the contents of the book, he was shocked to find that it was a book on alchemy, and the content introduced the relationship between alchemy and potions.
Although Potions is not the same as Alchemy, the two still have a lot of roots, and there is some overlap between the two.
Some of the raw materials for magic potions need to be processed through alchemy, and even some magic potions are obtained directly through alchemy.
At present, the most representative one is Bai Xian essence.
Bai Xian essence is something obtained directly by extracting the herb called Bai Xian. It is an effective medicine for treating wounds. Using Bai Xian essence to treat wounds is far better than using Bai Xian directly, or using it to configure magic.
The medicine is more effective.
In the book "Extraction, Separation and Potions", there is a detailed record of how to extract garlic, which reminded him of making garlic crosses in "Simple Alchemy"... Ahem, Albert quickly shook off the thought in his head.
Weird thoughts brought me back to the description of extracting white essence in the book.
Fred and Lee Jordan went to the kitchen and returned empty-handed. They sat listlessly on the chairs next to them, spreading their hands towards George with helpless expressions on their faces.
As Albert expected, the two got nothing. The house elves did not allow them to take away the garlic in the kitchen.
This means that the twins' plan has been declared bankrupt before it even begins to be implemented.
"I have warned you a long time ago." Albert looked at the discouraged three people and suggested: "Maybe you can send a letter to your family and ask them to send you some garlic.
"Are you crazy?" Fred looked at Albert in disbelief, and his voice could not help but rise a little higher, "If we dare to do this, we will definitely be whipped with a broom after we return from the Christmas vacation."
"No, I think mom might ask you to stop going to school and stay at home to continue growing garlic." George couldn't help but complain.
There is no way to get garlic from home, even for research on defense against the dark arts.
"Do you have any good ideas?" The three of them looked at Albert, their eyes shining with hope, as if that was their only hope.
"Give up!" Albert spread his hands and said, "Of course, if you really don't want to give up, I suggest you go to Diagon Alley and order some garlic by mail."
The three of them immediately shivered when they heard this. If they had Galleons, would they still need to worry about this matter?
"So, let's give up." Albert flipped through the books in his hand and said in a nonchalant manner, "Whether it's potions or alchemy, they are all money-burning stuff."
"What's wrong with the three of them?" Shanna asked as she glanced at the listless three of them.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little depressed, don't pay attention to them for the time being." Albert said.
"Don't pay attention to us, unless you can help us get garlic." George waved towards Shanna.
Shanna looked confused and ignored the twins. Instead, she chatted with Albert about the homework in potions class today and asked him when he would be free to go to the library to complete the article about Aconitum.
paper.
The difficulty of most papers lies in finding the information. The more people can search together, the faster it will be. As for how to piece together the found information into a paper, it depends on each person's writing skills.
Albert pulled out his homework sheet from his schoolbag, and after agreeing on a time with Shanna, he focused his attention on the book again.
To be honest, Albert hoped to find out how to make developing potions and photos in the magical world from the book "Extraction, Separation and Potions".
In Albert's opinion, magic photos are undoubtedly related to alchemy. Fortunately, he actually found content about this in the catalog.
While Albert was looking for the formula for making developing potion and the correct method of using it, he suddenly discovered that a new panel task had been activated.
Magic photos that move.
You have discovered the secret of moving magic photos and tried to learn how to make magic photos, why not give it a try?
Create three magic photos.
Reward: 500 experience, gain skill alchemy.
Until the end of lunch, Albert was thinking about whether he should take the time to prepare a developing potion to try. The task did not give much experience, but it would be good if he could directly obtain alchemy skills. After all, the magic lamp task required lighting alchemy.
Skill.
Just as he passed the foyer, Albert suddenly heard someone calling him next to him. He turned his head and looked at the three of them and asked, "What's the matter? I didn't hear clearly just now."
"We are going to try our luck in the next village." The three of them seemed to have reached a conclusion, which was to go to Hogsmeade to see if they could get some garlic, and then bring it back and grow it themselves.
"Oh, then I wish you good luck." Albert patted Fred on the shoulder and said, "Actually, Hagrid must have one there, if you want it..."
"What's there?" asked a sudden voice.
"Nothing?" Fred couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. They were not familiar with Hagrid, so they had no intention of disturbing each other in this regard.
Even if he said he was asking Hagrid to borrow a vegetable garden to grow garlic, it was just a joke. Hogwarts is so big, it is not difficult to find a place to secretly dig some soil and grow some garlic.
"Garlic, we want to study whether garlic can resist dark creatures." Albert changed the subject and asked, "Is something wrong? It's rare to see you entering the castle."
"I have something to talk to Dumbledore about." Hagrid looked at the few people suspiciously and walked towards the principal's office. Before leaving, he turned back and said, "If you need garlic, I can provide you with one."
The three of them looked at Hagrid's leaving figure and looked at each other. Unexpectedly, they were still racking their brains, thinking about how to get garlic.
Albert helped them get it done with a casual word.
"Isn't this not good?" George said.
"Hagrid often cooks for himself, and he has a vegetable garden, so there must be no shortage of garlic." Albert glanced at the three embarrassed people and said, "This Christmas, just help me think of what Christmas gift to give him.
!”
Uh-huh!
Several people nodded repeatedly, saying they would help with ideas on Christmas Day.
"However, I need to remind you that that little garlic is not enough." Albert added. "You should take the time to grow it yourself. It is very simple to grow garlic anyway."
Originally, this was their plan. As for where to plant it, the three of them had actually thought about it. It was not Hagrid's vegetable garden, but the edge of the Forbidden Forest far away from Hagrid's hut.
After hearing the three people's plans, Albert fell silent.
In fact, to grow some garlic, just get a vase and grow it yourself. As for fertilizer, isn’t the ashes in the fireplace the best fertilizer?
However, Albert had no intention of reminding the three of them, so let them figure this out on their own!
