Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 444 Powerful Laxative

It seems that the dragon egg and unicorn hunting incidents have not happened yet, but I don’t know if I can get related tasks from these two incidents.

On the way back to the castle with his Tom, Albert thought about the possibility of this while walking. Obtaining relevant tasks from the known plot was undoubtedly the most convenient way to gain experience.

As for whether Porter will continue to follow the plot of the story in the end, Albert is not sure, but he is more willing to believe in the so-called law of historical revision, and some things will not be changed easily.

When he brought Tom back to the common room, Albert noticed that three roommates were gathering together and whispering, and he didn't know what they were whispering.

Especially the subtle expression on George's face always made Albert feel a little strange. Fred and Lee Jordan also looked like they wanted to laugh but didn't dare.

"What's wrong with him?" Albert asked

Lee Jordan suppressed his laughter, "George took a very small dose of pandan powder, and he had some side effects."

"You have diarrhea?" Albert didn't look at George to prevent himself from laughing out loud: "Why don't you go to Madam Pomfrey and ask the head nurse to get you some medicine to treat your stomachache?"

"I just feel a little sick in my stomach." George really didn't want to go to the campus hospital, and he couldn't tell Madam Pomfrey that he had taken basil powder!

"We can't keep making trouble..."

As soon as Albert raised his head, he saw George running towards the dormitory toilet, holding his stomach.

After George disappeared at the top of the stairs, Fred and Lee Jordan finally couldn't help laughing.

"Stop making trouble." Albert looked at the two people who were laughing so hard that they could hardly stand upright and asked, "Have you not found a way to cure stomachache?"

"No." Fred shook his head regretfully.

"The only option is to go to Madam Pomfrey. Just say that Peeves added a small amount of powder suspected to be basil to George's food and see how the head nurse can solve this problem." Albert suggested.

Since they can't find a solution, they can only seek help from professionals.

As for taking the blame, just put it on Peeves.

The two looked at each other, not expecting that there was such a way. Madam Pomfrey was indeed an authority in medical matters. If you wanted to solve the problem of stomach upset, going to her was naturally the fastest way.

As for throwing the blame on Peeves, none of them felt any psychological pressure. Anyway, this was not the first time that the naughty Peeves had done such a thing.

Even if Peeves really finds out by then, the worst he can do is give him some basil powder and make this matter a fait accompli.

About ten minutes later, George appeared at the top of the stairs, his face still not very good. Fred immediately told him Albert's suggestion, and was taken away by Fred and Lee Jordan without waiting for George to agree. school clinic.

Albert also followed and told Madam Pomfrey what they had discussed previously, so that Fred and Lee Jordan wouldn't accidentally let it slip.

"Suspected to be Bashu bean powder?"

Madam Pomfrey listened to Albert's description and looked at George's appearance again, and she had no doubts. After all, she never imagined that someone would add basil powder to her food.

Curing a stomachache only took a few seconds for Madam Pomfrey. She took out a medicine bottle from the cabinet, poured a small cup for George, and the effect was immediate after drinking it. The stomachache was quickly cured.

"What potion is this?" Albert asked.

"Antidiarrheal potion." Madam Pomfrey began to chase people away.

After the four of them thanked Madam Pomfrey, they immediately went to the library to look up the antidiarrheal formula. They flipped through several books and finally found the antidiarrheal formula in a book titled "Cure for Common Magical Illnesses".

However, what surprised the four people the most was that the formula of the anti-diarrhea drug actually required the use of basil beans.

"Did I see it wrong?" Fred raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, unable to believe what he saw.

"You read that right." Albert took the "Cure for Common Magical Illnesses" to Mrs. Pince, intending to borrow it back and study it carefully.

It is not difficult to make an antidiarrheal agent. What is difficult is the processing of the basil bean. This thing needs to be roasted and oiled through an alchemical process before it can be used. The antidiarrheal agent made from unprocessed basil bean is not only ineffective in stopping diarrhea If you have diarrhea, it will become a powerful laxative and make diarrhea more serious.

"You can write to the pharmacy first, and you should be able to buy processed basil beans. However, I estimate that the price of this medicinal material will be relatively high." Albert reminded.

Some medicinal materials need to be tediously processed through alchemical procedures before use, and the price of these medicinal materials will be very expensive!

Of course, what is expensive is not the medicinal materials themselves, but the cumbersome processing technology.

"The effect of the antidiarrheal drug is indeed very strong, and the diarrhea problem was cured immediately." George couldn't help but sigh.

"I believe this thing can also be turned into a great joke prop." Fred already foresees a bunch of people having diarrhea, not enough toilets, and the scene is not very beautiful.

"Don't think about that weird thing." Albert glanced at Fred and said angrily, "Unless you want to be dragged into the toilet and beaten up one day."

"Definitely not, I just thought about it, and don't we also sell antidiarrheal medicine." Fred laughed maliciously.

"If you want to sell this thing to students in school, you better do it after we graduate and leave school." Lee Jordan muttered, "I don't want to have a stomachache all day long."

Albert ignored the twin brothers who were dancing weirdly side by side, and carefully read all the contents of "Cure Common Magical Ailments". He was very sure that this book was a common book that wizard families would buy.

"Have you really never used antidiarrheals before, or other medicines with similar effects?"

"I have no impression." Fred shook his head.

"What about this book?" Albert asked, pointing to "Cure for Common Magical Ailments".

"No, we do have a "Healing Manual" at home." Fred recalled.

"Then what should you do if you have a stomachache?" Albert asked with a frown.

"Dad would get potions from St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies, and you'd just drink it and you'd be fine. You know, the healers at the hospital would sell some simple potions to treat common symptoms to wizards who weren't good at brewing potions. George thought for a moment and said, "I think that thing is probably an antidiarrheal agent."

"After all, I haven't had stomach upsets much since I was a kid, so I forgot about it easily." Fred agreed, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just think that if you really want to sell this thing, it's best to find another recipe." Albert didn't expect the Weasley twins to learn how to handle basil beans in a short time, let alone that he would have to wait until then. You have to waste a lot of time and energy on this matter.
