Hogwarts, a Scholar Becomes a God

Chapter 16 Snape's Vulnerability

In the cold and damp lower classroom, the walls were lined with green glass jars, and the stuffed animals soaked in them made people shiver, but this was not the main reason for Harry Potter's chill.

"I suppose you haven't read a single book before term starts, have you, Potter?"

Snape's words were still so annoying, Harry finally knew why the seniors in the dormitory always spoke ill of Snape.

He forced himself to stare straight into those indifferent eyes. He had indeed turned over all the books at the Dursleys', but could Snape ask him to read "A Thousand Miraculous Herbs and Fungi?" "Have you memorized all the contents?

Snape still ignored Hermione's trembling arm.

"Potter, then tell me what's the difference between the boat-shaped aconite and the chamaejasma aconitum?"

At this moment, Hermione stood up, her hand stretched straight to the ceiling of the dungeon.

"I don't know," Harry whispered, "but I think Hermione knows the answer, why don't you ask her?"

"Pfft!"

Clark couldn't help laughing, and Harry looked down to meet his gaze, and saw him winking at him, almost giving him a thumbs up.

Of course Snape was not happy.

"Sit down," he snapped at Hermione, before eyeing Clark again.

And Clark lowered his head, not daring to look at him, his whole body seemed to be full of shouts of "Don't hit me! Don't hit me!"

"Perhaps our 'Son of Gryffindor' can answer for his stupid classmate, after all, aren't you the embodiment of knowledge?"

This time even the other Slytherin students put their hands to their mouths and giggled, while the Gryffindor students looked at him worriedly.

But in the eyes of Hermione, who was closest, Clark's mouth clearly showed a smile of successful planning.

At this time, his body stopped shaking, his head was raised, he stood up steadily, straightened his waist, looked directly into Snape's eyes, his whole aura suddenly changed, a confident look The momentum spread, giving Snape a bad premonition in his heart.

"The boat-shaped aconitum is also known as the chamaema aconitum, a plant of the Ranunculaceae family. It is a kind of magical plant, and they are collectively called aconitum. The former is light in color and large in size; the latter is small in size and dark in color. In Herbal Medicine In fact, the difference in toxicity between the two is only due to the difference in size and growth environment. But in terms of mysticism, the boat-shaped aconite symbolizes the water element, and the chamaejasma aconitum symbolizes the elemental earth."

Clark started answering the last question directly. The detailed content shocked all the little wizards in an instant. Hermione even had stars in her eyes and looked up at him with admiration.

"Bezoar, which is called bezoar in the East, can be found in the stomach of goats and cows, but not every goat or cow has it, and goats with bezoars are as common as cows. All have the characteristics of thin body and bulging abdomen.

The word bezoar comes from the Persian 'padzahr (??????)' which literally means 'to prevent poisoning'. In mysticism, the calculus in the cow's stomach has extremely stable magical properties, which can inert the reaction of potions and make them solidify, thus solving most of the magic poisons. But be aware that it cannot cure curses, and potion poisons that have mercury. "

His eyes were piercing, and he didn't look like a scumbag just now. For the last question, he wanted to give Snape a fatal blow.

"Adding narcissus root powder to wormwood infusion can make a powerful hypnotic drug, which is a dose of water of life and death.

But this kind of medicine will have the sequelae of making people drowsy afterwards, and the taste of this hypnotic is not good, bitter and astringent, it needs to add a little sleepy bean juice, so that people can ignore its taste, and There are no sequelae.

You only need to drop a few drops into the wine when you use it.

Can make people fall into a coma quickly.

But medieval witches have a better method, which is to mix it into perfume, apply it on specific parts, and get close to the object they want to use, so that people will be hypnotized quietly, very concealed, and very good continuity. "

Clark paused.

"Concerning my description of the effects of daffodil root powder and wormwood infusion, it begins on the third-to-last line of page seven of "Advanced Potion-Making" by Libasius Pollage, entitled "Potion of Living Hell ", this is the fifth grade Potions textbook.

The rest of the usage rules are in the history of magic textbook for the third grade, and you can find them in the chapter "Witches in the Middle Ages". But these are just the contents of the book. "

He looked at Snape and said slowly:

"Actually, in potion science, the 'Living Hell Potion' actually has another hidden effect in mysticism.

According to legend, in the Victorian era, a potion master was distraught because of the death of his wife, so he concocted this potion. In the flower language at that time, narcissus was a kind of lily (Lily), which means 'my regrets are up to you. Long sleep', while the wormwood infusion has a sweet and bitter taste, symbolizing extreme sorrow, pain and regret. "

Snape subconsciously avoided Clark's gaze, and Harry seemed to see a faint glimmer of tears in his eyes, which made him feel that he must have lost his head. Snape still crying?

"The combination of the two, the lily infused with the bitter wormwood juice, has the connotation of 'I deeply regret your death and have lived a life of mourning from hell'.

This characteristic perfectly interprets the effect of the 'Living Hell Potion'. There are rumors that a clever potion master concocted the 'Living Hell Potion', allowing people to see the person he most wants to see in his sleep , thus unwilling to wake up.

So this potion has another name, called "unswerving love until death". "

After Clark finished his last sentence, Harry didn't understand what he meant, but Snape's face was tense, and his eyes, which were originally empty, were full of inexplicable emotions, looking at the specimen jars on both sides of the classroom.

Even the dullest person, seeing his expression, could guess that Clark's words must have touched Snape's heart. And a sensitive girl like Hermione couldn't help but get red eyes after hearing Clark's words, as if she was sad for the love that was more than a hundred years ago.

The entire classroom was silent, and a low air pressure lingered above their heads, making the little wizards feel as if they were chilling.

After a long while, Snape looked away and said in a bad tone, "Why don't you write this down!"

Immediately, there was the sound of writing in unison in the classroom, and then Snape said bluntly, "Five points for Gryffindor."
