At this moment, Filch was holding an oil lamp and walking in the corridor leading to the underground of the castle. Not long ago, a strange-sounding cry came from underneath the castle. He didn't know what the cry was about, but he had been hearing it for many years.
The administrator's intuition told Filch that something must have happened.
"Who's there? Stop, I see you." Filch suddenly shouted, quickening his pace and chasing forward.
After a chase, Filch finally blocked the student at the corner. Panting, he raised the oil lamp and his eyes fell on the uneasy face of a student. A malicious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. In front of him was a student.
Slytherin student.
As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat, and this is absolutely true.
This Slytherin student was also unlucky. He had just heard the cry of Mandrake, so he sneaked out of the common room to find out the source of the sound, but he had just walked out of the Slytherin common room.
In the lounge, Filch caught him.
"Tell me, did you make that weird crying sound just now?" Filch's mood suddenly changed, and he asked in a stern tone.
"No, I just heard that sound..." the student explained with a sad face.
"Don't try to escape, come with me." Filch took the student to knock on Snape's office. However, Snape had been knocked unconscious by Albert using mandrake, so it was naturally impossible.
Get up and open the door.
After knocking on the door to no avail, Filch could only take the student to find the deputy dean, Professor McGonagall.
Professor McGonagall, who was wearing a cloak, opened the door and looked at Filch. Then he turned his attention to the uneasy Slytherin student and asked, "Argus, what is going on."
"I suspect he was the one who made the noise just now." Filch said softly about what happened just now.
"This matter has nothing to do with me." The Slytherin student said quickly.
"What's going on?" Professor McGonagall frowned slightly, and her eyes gradually became stern.
The Slytherin student swallowed and recalled what he knew.
Mandrake's cry didn't spread too far. Only a few Slytherin students and Filch who were still asleep heard it, and the one caught by Filch came out to find out who was crying.
What's going on with the sound?
Then, he was unlucky.
While Professor McGonagall was severely deducting Slytherin House points, Albert was also telling his roommates what had just happened in Snape's office.
"You actually..." The three of them heard that Albert actually used Mandrake to knock Snape out, and they all stared in shock at their roommate who had just lifted the Disillusionment Curse.
Then he muttered with resentment on his face: "Damn it, you didn't bring us with you for such an interesting thing."
"Isn't this convenient for mobility?" Albert covered his yawn and said with a smile: "I have already obtained the niger eggs. As for the dragon claw powder, I will write to the drugstore in Diagon Alley tomorrow to buy it. Snape
You definitely wouldn’t have guessed that we were going to prepare Baffy’s brain-reviving agent.”
"However, this is such a pity!" Fred said with regret, and at the same time he admired Albert's courage for actually daring to knock Snape unconscious.
"What do you think Snape will do when he wakes up tomorrow?" George asked in a strange tone as he lay back on the bed.
"Of course I thought I had a nightmare." Albert said without thinking, "Okay, go to bed early and don't be late tomorrow morning."
Even though he said this, Fred and the others were already too excited to sleep. There was nothing they could do about it. No one would be able to sleep after hearing such news.
Albert didn't care whether Fred or the others slept. He closed his eyes and began to receive the reward for the task of first meeting the Mandrake.
The so-called basic knowledge of mandrake is really not much different from what Albert guessed. It is the knowledge of mandrake, but the scope of this knowledge is very wide. If you want to write a paper about mandrake, you can probably
Written into a book as thick as a brick.
Albert slowly looked through the so-called attempts he had obtained, and was really shocked.
Mandrake is one of the ingredients in the elixir of life.
Mandrake roots can be brewed into wine through some special means. This wine is beneficial to fertility and has a certain aphrodisiac effect.
In fact, mandrake root is also one of the raw materials of love potions.
The most shocking thing is that Albert actually found its formula in his memory, whether it was the elixir or mandrake root wine.
However, the most shocking thing is not just that. Mandrake roots can also be turned into a medicine that delays aging through complex magic potion technology.
If mature mandrake roots are dried and carved, they can be made into various very precious talismans, which can resist diseases, protect against black magic, and ensure female fertility.
If the dried mandrake roots are carved into human shapes, they can also be used for divination.
By the way, mandrake root is also an ingredient in flying ointment.
The so-called basic knowledge of mandrake simply stunned Albert. This part of the knowledge simply analyzed all aspects of the various scratching operations of mandrake. Whether it is grass or roots, its
It has at least a hundred uses, as a raw material for various alchemy and potions.
Of course, in addition, it can also be made into black magic items.
If mandrake is planted in salt for three months, it becomes a dangerous dark magic item.
Well, according to Albert's own understanding, the mandrake will never die with its eyes closed. After being pickled in salt for three months, hatred will remain on the pickled mandrake. When it is taken out of the salt, mandrake
Pulling the mandrake will become extremely deadly, and its cry will cause all surrounding creatures to be cursed and faint, or even die. The salt that buried the mandrake in the past will become the best way to lift the curse.
"This... this is really great!" Albert murmured excitedly. He had realized that he might not be able to return the pot of mandrake, and he might have to plant a large amount of mandrake in the future.
Of course, Albert is not worried about the planting method, because there is also the best planting method in the basic common sense of mandrake, which is better than Pomona Sprout's planting method.
"What's so great?" a voice from beside suddenly asked.
"Fortune Elixir." Albert said happily: "The effect of the medicine is really great. I will definitely learn how to prepare the Elixir for Happiness."
"Is it possible that you plan to drink it every day?"
"When everything goes wrong, drink some elixir." Albert said with a smile. "Although drinking too much will make people arrogant, it is undeniable that as long as a small amount, everything will become perfect."
