Chapter 141, Compound Decoction
Inside the Library! Harry and Ron had been a rare visitor since the last time they inquired about Nicolame, and although Hermione was a regular visitor, it was also unusual not to see a bunch of books in front of her. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The four of them sat at a table in the corner, and Bruce said, "To put it simply, a polyjuice decoction can make the person who takes it look like another person in a certain period of time!" ”
Ron said excitedly, "You mean, if we drink this thing, we can turn into Crabbe and Goyle?" ”
Bruce nodded and said, "Theoretically, that's it!" ”
"Cool!" Harry said happily, "If that's the case, then Malfoy will tell us everything!" ”
"Wait a minute!" Hermione interrupted Harry and said, "But, Bruce said, it's only theoretically possible!" ”
Ron was surprised and said, "Theory? What does this mean? ”
Hermione explained, "First of all, we don't have a recipe for the potion, and secondly, even if we did, it would take a long time for Bruce and I to make it! ”
"So what's the difference between that and nothing?" Ron said hurriedly.
Bruce laughed, "Don't worry! First of all, the formula of the compound decoction cannot be found in the conventional channel, but the unconventional channel can! For example: Forbidden Books Zone! ”
"That's right!" Harry immediately said, "Just like we used to do when we were in Chanicolae, with the cloak of invisibility!" ”
Bruce nodded and continued, "As for the timing, I believe that as long as we can find a secret place, we can configure it in a month at most!" ”
Hermione said, "Yes, we have hidden places, don't we?" ”
Bruce laughed, "Yes, there is a room for requirement!" ”
"You two wait a minute!" Harry looked at the two helplessly and said, "Please, a month!" Did I hear me right? If Malfoy is indeed the successor of Slytherin, a month would be enough time for him to do half of the Muggle students! ”
Bruce stretched out his hands and said, "Otherwise, what else can you do?" ”
Harry pondered for a long time but didn't think of anything, and finally said, "Okay, that's it!" ”
Bruce said, "OK! So happily decided, tonight I will go to the forbidden book area to find the formula, and tomorrow I will buy the ingredients! As for money...... Harry! Over to you! ”
"What!" Harry smiled wryly, "No! Why me? ”
Ron smirked, "Who made your little coffers the most abundant!" I couldn't agree more! ”
"Hee-hee! Agree! Hermione laughed.
Bruce smiled and said, "Three votes, Harry!" Accept the reality! ”
Harry laughed and said, "Okay! I admit it! ”
However, Harry didn't feel any pain, because his parents had left him a lot of money, and secondly, the materials weren't too expensive! That night, with the help of the Cloak of Invisibility, Bruce managed to find the recipe for the Polyjuice Potion from the book "Powerful Potion" in the Forbidden Book Zone!
The next day, in the Room of Requirement, the four of them looked carefully at the recipe that Bruce had gotten. In fact, just Bruce and Hermione, Harry and Ron knew that helping with their performance in Potions class was only a disservice!
"I'll see! Oh my God, I've never seen such a complicated recipe! Hermione looked at the recipe and read, "Twelve lacewings that have been boiled for twenty-one days, one ounce of crude antimony, four leeches that have been mouthed, two-thirds of an ounce of liquid grass picked at the time of the full moon, three drachmas powdered ammonium chloride, two-eared grass leaf powder, a pinch of two-horned horn powder, saltpeter, mercury, iron files, dried African tree snakeskin strips, and the stuff of the man who wants to change!" ”
"Wait!" Harry hurriedly said, "I want to hear unicorn fans!" Bruce, you play with me! Unicorn powder is very expensive! ”
Bruce said speechlessly, "Look at your door-slamming virtue! Unicorn powder is very expensive, but how expensive can it be if you lose it like this, don't worry! Together, these things aren't enough for a wand I've made! ”
Harry was relieved, and although he didn't cut the door, he didn't want to go bankrupt just because he was looking for an answer that wasn't 100% sure!
"Huh! How do we get our hands on these things? Can't we leave school and find someone to buy it? Ron asked.
Bruce said, "Simple, I've thought about it a long time ago!" The recipe is split into two parts, one for Hagrid and the other for Mr. Tom, so I can find all the ingredients without letting people know what we're doing! ”
"Great idea!" Harry said.
On the same day, the four of them put things into practice! They went to Hagrid's hut and asked Hagrid to help him on the pretext of practicing the potions in the preparation class, and Hagrid readily agreed. Bruce also asks Hedwig to bring a letter and some recipes to Mr. Tom, and both Hagrid and Mr. Tom deliver the ingredients they need to Hogwarts that night.
But Bruce and Hermione didn't plan to start making it right away, although Filch's super scout, Mrs. Lorris, had been petrified, which made it difficult for him to spot the students who broke the school rules in the first place, but because of this, he had his eyes on Bruce and them, and Filch still thinks that they petrified their own cat.
Naturally, Bruce didn't get a touch on this juncture, so they decided to do it tomorrow, which is the weekend! This gives them enough time to prepare.
The next morning, Bruce woke up for his morning workout, but as soon as he went out, he saw Hermione sitting in the common room!
"Hermione? So early? Bruce said curiously.
Hermione looked him up and down and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
Bruce was stunned and smiled bitterly: "Please, this sentence should be more appropriate for me to ask!" What are you doing when you wake up so early? ”
Hermione replied as a matter of course, "Of course, I went to the Room of Requirement to make a compound potion!" I've been waiting for you here for half an hour! ”
"Huh! I guess I don't have to go so early! Bruce was surprised, "We've got two whole days!" ”
Hermione stood up and said, "But we're pressed for time, it's going to take at least a month to make the Polyjuice Potion, and we're going to have to find a way to get our hands on Crabbe, and more importantly, we don't know if Malfoy is the successor, if not, we'll waste a month!" ”
"I'll go!" Facing Hermione, who threw out a bunch of words, Bruce really felt helpless and said, "Okay, okay! I'll throw in the towel, then I'll be over later! ”
"What? Wait! Hermione looked at him incredulously and said, then ...... Whoosh! Ran up to Bruce and pushed her towards the room.
"Now, now, now, hurry up and change my clothes!"
