Chapter 331: Completely Different Answers (Repair)
However, Harry was fortunate that Professor Snape did not stare at him for long.
After a slight pause and looking at each other for a few seconds, Snape took the initiative to look away, raised the roster in his hand again and began to call names, as if it was just an insignificant episode.
Soon, after calling the names, Snape put down the roster in his hand, folded his hands on his chest, and looked up at the students in the classroom. His eyes were as cold and empty as ever, like two bottomless black lines.
tunnel.
"In this class, you don't need to wave your wand around or mutter words."
Snape spoke softly, his voice barely above a whisper, but as if with a magical power, everyone heard every word he said clearly.
"In fact, I don't expect many of you to truly understand the precise science and strict craftsmanship of potion preparation. However, for a few talented elites, I will..."
When he said this, Snape paused again, his eyes rested on Elena sitting in the front, and his lips trembled slightly - he suddenly remembered what he was going to say next,
It seemed that this little girl had already mentioned it first in Monday's Potions class.
Forget it, I can't care about that much for now, let's just pretend that this little girl doesn't exist.
In Elena's blank eyes, Professor Snape first glared at her threateningly, then looked across her face, as if through a mass of air, looked forward, took a deep breath, his expression
He continued stiffly.
"I don't expect you to truly understand the beauty of the slowly simmering crucible emitting white smoke and bursting with fragrance..." (Click to expand the full text)
After he finished this short opening statement, the whole class fell silent.
Severus Snape looked around the quiet classroom and nodded with satisfaction. This was the effect he wanted to achieve. He had already seen awe and curiosity in the eyes of many little ones.
And this time, there was finally no talkative first-year wizard to interrupt his opening remarks.
"It is indeed a standard Slytherin-style evil speech."
Ron and Seamus, who were sitting in the back row, raised their eyebrows and secretly exchanged glances, obviously thinking of going together.
Fortunately, Professor Snape's attention was not on the two of them at this time.
"Mr. Potter (Mr. Potter!), our new celebrity."
Just when everyone thought the opening remarks were over and the formal lessons were about to begin, Snape suddenly changed the subject.
"Tell me, what would I get if I added narcissus root powder to a mugwort infusion?"
(Tell me, what would get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?) (See the following popular science for details, important!)
Narcissus root powder added to mugwort infusion?
Harry subconsciously glanced at Elena, who was sitting in front of the classroom. Just as he was about to answer, he suddenly froze - wait! If he remembered correctly, this question...
Almost at the same time, Hermione, who was sitting next to Harry in the classroom, raised her arm and pointed it at the ceiling of the Potions classroom like a sharp sword.
Snape looked at Harry, who had no response and seemed to be staying in his seat, with a trace of disappointment and loneliness in his eyes.
Although he didn't expect Harry to understand his deeper meaning, if he could show a little bit of potions talent like Lily, it would be enough to make him feel less uncomfortable.
However, what Snape didn't notice was that as he said these words, Elena's eyes instantly turned regretful and silent - as a senior fan of the Harry Potter series, she was naturally very
Understand the meaning expressed by this famous metaphor that runs throughout the entire original story.
Asphodel, also known as sun orchid, is a plant belonging to the Liliaceae family. And the English name of lily happens to be exactly the same spelling as Lily Evans’ name, Lily. (The so-called Victorian flower language spread on the Internet is very poignant, but it’s just a pity.
One rumor has it that daffodils mean devotion.)
Root, in addition to the meaning of root, also means cause and source. In addition, mugwort represents "absence" and "bitter sadness", and the final answer is - Living Hell Decoction (Living Hell Decoction)
Another more popular way of saying -Death) is that life is worse than death.
This may be the most painful metaphor in the wizarding world.
"Tsk, tsk - it seems you don't know? Obviously, fame doesn't mean everything."
Unaware of the complicated gazes coming from behind him, Snape curled his lips contemptuously, walked slowly down the podium, came to Harry, ignored Hermione's raised arms next to him, and stared quietly.
Harry's eyes.
"Then let's try again. If I asked you to find me a bezoar, where would you look for it?"
It’s still the same question! Not even a word has changed!
Harry swallowed hard, his breathing became heavy and rapid, and he unconsciously looked past Snape in front of him and towards Elena, who was next to the podium and turned to look at him.
Following Harry's line of sight, Snape turned back and glanced at the silver-haired little witch sitting at the front of the classroom. The disappointment deep in his eyes couldn't help but grow a little more.
"What a pity. Of course I know that Miss Kaslana may know the answer. Unfortunately, she cannot help you answer the question at this time. All you can rely on now is yourself..."
Snape shook his head and said softly, about to ask the third question.
At this moment, Harry, who seemed stunned before, suddenly broke the silence and took the initiative to answer.
"Living-Dead"
"Huh?" Snape raised his eyebrows and looked at the thin boy with glasses in front of him with some surprise, "What did you just say?"
"If narcissus root powder is added to mugwort infusion, it can be made into a very powerful sleeping potion, that is, Living-Dead... The specific brewing process, I heard, may be in
There are records in "Advanced Potion Making", but I only saw so much in "Thousands of Miraculous Herbs and Mushrooms"."
Harry took a deep breath, recalled what he had recited before and answered quickly.
Regardless of whether it was a coincidence, a prophecy, or even collusion with Professor Snape in advance - no matter what the reason is, it is constantly supporting the news revealed by Elena.
reliability.
"That's right, how to brew the living hell decoction is something you only learn in sixth grade."
A trace of surprise flashed in Snape's eyes, and he glanced thoughtfully at Harry, who was gradually relaxing, and nodded slightly.
"It seems that you have read "Thousands of Miraculous Herbs and Mushrooms" carefully before, and this small detail that was brushed off is not so easy to notice."
"Wait..."Advanced Potion Making"?! The content of the sixth grade course?!"
Hermione turned her head in confusion, quickly lowered her head and flipped through the two textbooks at hand, then looked at Harry with an extremely unfamiliar look, as if she had just met him today, and held up her hands high.
His arm retracted.
This question... seemed to be a bit over the top, and the most important thing was that Harry's answer was obviously more accurate than the answer she was about to blurt out.
Not noticing the strange look from Hermione next to him, Harry calmed down and focused all his attention on Professor Snape.
"Then, bezoar. This is a stone removed from the stomach of a goat using a special method. It can be used as an antidote for potions. It is also one of the basic raw materials used to make common broad-spectrum antidotes."
This time, Harry did not dodge in any way. He looked directly into the deep black eyes of the Potions Professor not far in front of him, and answered respectfully in a calm tone.
As the familiar knowledge was spoken bit by bit, Harry gradually calmed down - Sister Elena has done enough, and now it is his own battlefield, and no one can help him.
.
"So, Professor Snape, if we want to find a bezoar, the goat's stomach is naturally the first place to start..."

[Popular knowledge about important plot]
(The vast majority of HP fans who are not careful will reveal their secrets in these two places in the potions class. This is also something that fat chickens can’t stand. Baidu is obviously so developed, so you will know it after a little careful research.)
(First of all, Bezoar is not a bezoar. The reason why many people write it as a bezoar is because it was an initial translation error in the movie version. It was accidentally translated into a bezoar. Of course, there is also a saying that translation
In order to be closer to the Chinese understanding, I forcefully use the bezoar analogy. In fact, if you pay a little attention, you will find that it is different.)
(Similarly, if I add narcissus root powder to the mugwort infusion, there is indeed a profound meaning. But the so-called Victorian flower language does not exist at all. In fact, it is the same as the Kaslana flower language. It just sounds good and is just a random joke.
Things that came out. "My regret follows you to the grave" is a rumor. Not to mention that Snape is a straight man and an otaku, what kind of flowery language is he running to recite?!)
