“…… That's right, that's for now, put in the powdered wolf venom aconitum stems and leaves. It should be noted that its toxicity is a very effective catalyst, but for this reason, the ratio of potions used to it must be strictly controlled. ”

In the Potions classroom, there was a foggy mist, and when you were in it, you could unconsciously feel a little inexplicable suffocation.

This step is the most critical step in the preparation of the Living Hell Elixir, because in this step, the preparation environment will be infected by the poisonous gas coming out of the crucible.

Therefore, there are not only several potted plants in the classroom at this moment that can absorb poisonous gases, but everyone is also wearing magic masks that filter the air.

"The effect of the Living Hell Elixir is to make the user fall asleep and fake death, and during that time, the user's bodily functions will gradually cease as a result. When a patient has suffered severe spell damage and is unable to sustain the healing process to the end, the healer will use this potion to try to delay the increase in damage. ”

Slughorn walked from group to group in the classroom as he talked about the potion's properties. And after talking about the practical use, he turned to say:

"We have already learned the Living Hell Potion at the beginning of the semester, and with everyone's hard work, I think everyone still remembers these things very well. However, please note that what we are preparing is an improved version of the formula that I have researched, and although it is slightly less effective than the original elixir, the cost of preparation has been greatly reduced......"

At this point, Slughorn coughed lightly, once again provoking everyone's attention.

"Students," he said, "some may think that it is a mistake to save gold gallons at the expense of the weakening of the potency of the medicine, but the teacher must say here that many herbs of the past are on the verge of extinction in modern times. ”

"So, while it's important to work like Professor Sprout to propagate endangered plants, potions artists like us also need to address the limitations of potion formulations as much as possible from another angle."

"You know, when there are people who lack gold gallons and are in dire need of some kind of potion to save their lives, it is also an important mission of our potions masters to provide them with effective potions that they can afford......"

As a human being, this old bald man may be a little biased in some ways; But when you look at it from the perspective of a potions master, he is obviously quite qualified.

"Mr. Weasley, watch the weight, you're putting in a little too much!"

After reminding Ron of a word, Slughorn continued:

"I hope that you will remember what I have just said; And I'm looking forward to the fact that when you want to become a potions master after graduation, you'll be able to create more affordable recipes. ”

But if I have to say, Slughorn's words weren't entirely his own.

At Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the curriculum provides students who will soon graduate from the school with some professional experiences and admonitions for their future careers.

And this is naturally so that the little wizards will not be impregnated by some darkness in the outside world, and insist on walking on a correct and bright path.

Perhaps, this is the last lesson that Hogwarts will teach all the students!

However, even then, there is a limit to the impact that professors in the school can have on everyone. While most graduates are walking on that bright road as much as possible, there are always a small number of people who will gradually deviate either actively or passively.

……

While the Potions classroom at Hogwarts was shrouded in a misty potion mist, a puff of lilac smoke was filling a potions workshop in Cornwall.

Heavy curtains, dim lighting, bubbling boiling cauldrons, stacks of batch test tube racks, and several potions bottle crates stacked in the corners.

In the middle of the workshop, two long preparation tables stretched from one end to the other, and tattered house-elves were toiling to bottle and pack the finished potion.

Continuing along the two long tables filled with house-elves into the depths of the workshop, behind a personal preparation table full of potions of all kinds, a witch with messy hair was stirring the potion in the cauldron with a nonchalant expression.

The environment here is obviously very different from other personal potions preparation rooms.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, an explosion sounded from the witch's cauldron, causing the house-elves in the workshop to tremble subconsciously. But even so, most of the elves did not stop their work.

"Who allowed you to stop?"

The witch lifted the mixing spoon slightly from the cauldron, then raised her eyelids and looked coldly at one of the house-elves in front of her.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry master, it's Rice's fault, Rice doesn't dare anymore-"

"Punishment."

"Yes, yes...... Master, Rice made a mistake and Rice needs to punish himself! Please forgive Rice for her mistakes! ”

As he spoke, the house-elf suddenly grabbed an awl from the table and stabbed it his leg. But he only gritted his teeth, and it was only after a moment that he pulled out the bloody awl again.

"Master, Rice punished himself, Rice...... It's time to continue working for the master. ”

Rubbing the blood from the awl, the house-elf named Rice began to bottle the potion again, despite the sharp pain in his thin right leg, which was still trembling slightly.

At that moment, there were two knocks at the door of the workshop, and the witch inside stopped the stirring spoon that was about to go deeper into the cauldron again, a little impatiently.

"Tsk...... Forget it, anyway, it has already been fried at the bottom, and the success rate of this pot will not be very high. ”

casually picked up the wand next to him and tapped it lightly on the crucible, and the liquid medicine that was still tumbling in the crucible just now disappeared without a trace.

Judging by her skillful spell casting and easy silent spells, she must have been at a good level in other aspects besides Potions.

"Tuk-tuk."

After waiting a few seconds before hearing a response, the man knocked on the door of the workshop again, which made the witch's expression even more irritated.

"Go and see who it is, don't let anyone who doesn't matter inside."

Rice, who had just made a mistake, may have been looking for an opportunity to make amends, and as soon as he heard his master say this, he immediately bowed and said:

"Yes, Rice is going!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the elf suddenly flickered and disappeared from the long table with a slight crackling sound.

……

"Donger, I think you're a Slytherin, right? Is it reliable? ”

"How so? Although I didn't have much contact with her...... You know, how can someone like me have a relationship with those young ladies and young masters in Slytherin? But when it comes to the level of potions, she is still very high. ”

"Anyway, I don't think it's very reliable to find Slytherin!"

In front of the workshop, the slightly strange duo of Mundungus and Sirius stood side by side, chatting casually as the door opened.

And behind them, Lupin, who also came over together, couldn't help but say:

"Sirius, don't always worry about the Academy, there are good Slytherin-born wizards too. What's more, this is just one of the alternative workshops, so let's wait and see if you want to cooperate! ”

In fact, this time they're looking for a potions workshop that can deliver healing potions in bulk.

After all, although the main members of the Order of the Phoenix have Maca to supply high-quality potions, the number is obviously not enough for all members to use.

In particular, there is a group of supernumerary members on the side of Montungus, and although those wizards are basically working for the Order of the Phoenix, they are not yet official members of the Order of the Phoenix.

Providing them with some necessary safeguards will naturally give them more trust in the Order of the Phoenix.

"Crackle."

While the three of them were talking casually, a house-elf suddenly appeared in front of the still closed door, which made Lu Ping and the others temporarily stop talking about the topic.

"Three gentlemen, Rice greets you - may I ask the three who came to my master's potions workshop, what is the matter?"

Sirius didn't care much about house-elves, even though he could see at a glance that there were still wisps of blood running down the elf's legs.

In any case, old Kreacher in Black's house had enough of it.

Sirius turned his head, shook his chin at Mundungus beside him, and then stood aside with his arms folded.

Of course, it was Montungus who took over, for it was he who had led Sirius and Lupin here.

"Well, is Miss Higgs here? I'm her old classmate Mundungus Fletch, and I want to talk to her about a long-term potions order. ”

"Oh, sir, please wait a moment, Rice will go and explain to the master the purpose of the three of them—"

Seeing that the elf Rice was about to disappear again, Sirius on the side pouted and said:

"What? You can't just open the door and let us in...... It's a loss that you're a descendant of a pure-blood family, and you've forgotten the most basic etiquette of hospitality? ”

Among the few people present, I am afraid that Sirius, a guy from the Black family, is qualified to say this.

Ironically, he was the one who hated pureblood the most.

"Yes, I'm sorry, sir...... It's just that the owner never allowed Rice to let outsiders into the workshop casually, I'm really sorry......"

"Huh?" When Sirius heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Donge, I don't think you need to go into this workshop, just cross it out on the shortlist!" ”

But behind him, Lupin quickly shook his head.

"Rice, huh?" He said, "Just go in and report!" We're here to wait......"
