Chapter 13 The Insultry Dean of Science and Technology

Before Low-level crucible refining, these medicinal materials that are the same as those in the Muggle world have actually been refined once in advance by potion masters or herbalists.

Take bezoar as an example. The gallstones of cattle are recognized as having the effect of detoxification in Chinese traditional medicine, ancient Western herbal medicine, and the global supernatural world.

However, natural bezoar can only remove a small part of the toxins of ordinary people. The bezoar detoxification pills in the secular world are a medicine for clearing away heat and heat. Don't really use it to relieve any symptoms of poisoning. Natural bezoar is an excellent carrier of magic in the Western magic world. Its bile coagulation can effectively lock the unique detoxification spell. Therefore, its efficacy has nothing to do with bilirubin, bile acid and prasterone. It is just a natural enchantment medium.

If you want to use bezoar as a raw material for potions, you have to refine it at least seven times, including steps such as magic passivation, removal of anti-interference, addition of stabilization spells, dehydration and solidification, soaking in high magic pressure to change the properties of the liquid, etc., which are completely beyond the scope of seventh-grade N.E.W.T.s, and finally get a small piece of refined bezoar.

Natural bezoar is more expensive than gold, and refined natural bezoar is comparable to the most common magic metals, and is countless times more expensive than diamonds of the same volume, all because artificially synthesized bezoar does not have the same effect, and the cost of refining is also extremely high.

So, when Harry stuffed a handful of bezoar into Ron's mouth in the sixth grade, he was actually using a large number of gold Galleons to detoxify him. That piece of bezoar was the collection of old fat man Slughorn.

Therefore, it is not difficult to see why the fake Moody in the fourth grade set up a trap for Dobby to steal Snape's Gillyweed, because this thing needs to be refined to have the effect of long-term breathing in water.

This plant was discovered by herbalists in modern times. No one knew its magical properties until Elladora Ketteridge almost suffocated after eating it. The witch could only immerse her head in a bucket of water to recover her breathing. It is an unstable wild plant.

Before it was refined, it was even one of the ingredients for a wizard drink called Gillywater, which is Gillywater mixed with water. It is sold at the Three Broomsticks and the Leaky Cauldron, and it tastes pretty good.

Well, after revealing so many things that the original book never mentioned, Chen Bin mainly complained about how unreasonable Snape was to find fault. After all, he is one of the best potion masters in the UK, and he can handle the herbal steps that are beyond the scope. Looking at the knowledge points of the first grade, of course, it feels like a kindergarten question.

Chen Bin received Isabel's reminder early in the morning, so he really listened to Snape's three questions attentively in this class. Sure enough, it was exactly the same as what this die-hard fan of the novel said - Snape confessed!

Of course, he didn't want to confess to Harry, but to tell Harry in front of him that he liked his mother!

What will you get if you add Asphodel root powder to wormwood infusion?

The answer is Draught of Living Death - a super-powerful sleeping pill, named after the fact that it will fall into a death-like sleep after drinking it.

This is a potion that will only be taught in the sixth grade N.E.W.T.s course. Why ask Harry in the first grade?

Let's first explain the classification of plants. For example, the genus Citrus (scientific name: Citrus) includes plants such as grapefruit, mandarin orange, orange, lemon, trifoliate orange, kumquat, etc.

Asphodel is actually the genus Asphodelus, and people usually refer to daffodils. However, it also includes plants of the lily family (Liliaceae), which means lily, Lily, Lily Evans, Harry's mother - Lily Potter.

Asphodel is said to be a flower planted in the ancient Greek underworld (where the souls of the dead live forever), forming a sea of ​​flowers.

The flower language of Asphodel is "My Regrets Follow You to the Grave".

Wormwood is wormwood, an extremely bitter plant, scientifically known as Artemisia absinthium, which is derived from the Greek moon goddess "Artemis". Artemis, the goddess, was extremely chaste, but she fell into the trap of her brother, the sun god Apollo, and shot the man she loved with her own hands. The arrow had sunk into his head, and Artemis could only watch him lying on the water quietly. He died before he could say a word to his sweetheart.

Okay, who understands the first question and doesn't feel that the sultry science and engineering man is infinitely sexy?

When Lily (Asphodel) fell into the trap faced by Artemisia (Artemisia wormwood) and died, Snape didn't have time to say a word to her beloved, and her death was all caused by Snape.

He was bitter, more bitter than wormwood, and his regret accompanied Lily into the grave. He and his beloved were separated by a river of the underworld, and he could only continue to stay in the world and gaze at a piece of flowers of the dead on the other side.

When Lily (Asphodel) fell into the trap faced by Artemisia (Artemisia) and died, the result was the Draught of Living Death - Snape's body was still alive, but his heart fell into the eternal sleep of death.

Ask you if you are slutty? The cold-faced science and engineering man declared in front of his lover's son that he had such a slutty love and regret for his mother, making himself live a life worse than death, like death but still alive, life and death, love and regret intertwined, breaking through life and death, crossing the Styx, and staying in the tomb forever.

Is this Chen Bin's evil heart? Is Isabel's divine imagination? Has the information she read in her previous life been over-interpreted?

As an observer on the scene of the class, Chen Bin can say responsibly: Snape's eyes are not only mourning, but confessing!

The role of fecal stone (bezoar) in the future may be a coincidence, and there may not be any meaning to be interpreted here. There is still a hint of pleasure in his eyes to make things difficult for Harry.

However, when Snape asked the third question, Chen Bin could see sadness, despair, admiration, regret and other emotions in his eyes that Chen Bin could not explain. Well, Chen Bin admitted that he could not see what emotions this complex look carried, but if it was just to make things difficult, would he have such a look? Wasn't it pure pleasure when asking the second question?

The third question was: "What is the difference between Aconitum natans and Aconitum langsabana?" The English spellings of the two are completely different, but they are actually the same Aconitum plant. The flower language of the former is knight, that is, the spirit of sacrifice, and the flower language of the latter is world-weariness.

If there is no over-interpretation, sacrifice does not mean that Harry and Voldemort will die together. At this time, Snape did not know that Dumbledore's plan required this link, so he still silently guarded Lily's only bloodline.

Therefore, the flower language of sacrifice, knight protection, etc. should be referring to Lily, and then world-weariness is of course Snape himself. He had wanted to die a long time ago, but he couldn't let go of his beloved son. Snape's only motivation to live was to let him grow up safely.

Well, maybe killing Voldemort was one of the motivations, but judging from Snape's later performance, he seemed to know that he was incapable of killing him, so he chose to continue to be an undercover agent and collect information that could kill Voldemort.

Even Snape hated Neville so much in the original book, probably because he was angry about why Voldemort didn't choose Neville's family? If he chose Neville as the destined boy, Lily would not have been killed. This is very suitable for Snape's twisted personality: Nima, why don't you die for my goddess?

In this class, Chen Bin pretended to be a super good baby, that is, listening carefully and taking notes attentively, but his mind was thinking about other things.
