Chapter 37: Lost Confidence
Suddenly, when Galen rushed to answer Professor Sprout's question, the two brothers, George and Fred, tilted their heads together, as if we didn't know if your answer was right or not, and we were glad that you could learn to answer it.
Louis covered his forehead helplessly, and said in his heart that it was not easy for Galen's parents to raise him, this guy was definitely a ruthless character who could make a hot pot for everything.
Then, under Galen's expectant gaze, he saw Professor Sprout shake his head regretfully, and said, "Unfortunately, Mr. Smith, your answer is wrong. ”
"It's a lot like crab claw orchid, and it's easy to confuse, but the correct answer is.... It's a young devil's web. ”
After telling the freshmen the correct answer, Professor Sprout took out his wand and reached for the devil's web, which immediately stretched out snake-like tendrils and wrapped around it.
"Mature devil's webs are a very dangerous vine plant, as soon as any creature gets close to them, they will immediately stretch out their tendrils and wrap around the creature that is close to them, and the more they struggle, the tighter they will wrap around, and it is easy for the creature that gets close to them to be injured or even killed."
"People who don't know about the Devil's Net, like Mr. Smith, often mistake them for Crab Claw Orchids, and there have been wizards who were killed for giving someone else a Devil's Net disguised as Crab Claw Orchid, and what you learn in the herbal medicine class can prevent this kind of thing from happening as much as possible."
"For example... Understand and master the methods of dealing with the devil's net. ”
"Take the Devil's Net as an example, it likes to live in a dark and humid environment, and light and warmth are naturally their natural enemies, so if you want to deal with the Devil's Net, you just need to..."
Call!
A small flame suddenly appeared on Professor Sprout's wand, forcing back the devil's net in the basin, and he smiled:
"A little bit of fire!"
After that, Professor Sprout saw that the freshmen's attention was attracted by the content of his lecture, nodded with satisfaction, and left a period of time for the freshmen to take notes.
Louie apparently didn't need to take notes.
Because of what Professor Sprout said, he not only stored it on the mental hard drive for repeated reference, but also recorded it deeply in his mind.
A lot of knowledge can't be learned by rote, such as Professor Sprout's Herbal Medicine class, and Snape's Potions class being a good example.
Courses like herbal medicine classes, potions classes, etc., memorization is only the foundation, and it can be barely mastered if you can learn and use it.
However, as the first herbal medicine class for the freshmen, Professor Sprout obviously couldn't teach the freshmen more advanced courses, but only showed the freshmen a lot of common magical plants, taught them to identify these common magical plants, and introduced the basic uses of these common magical plants.
Among the common magical plants that Professor Sprout showcased, Louis was most impressed by the white freshness, which was not only an essential ingredient for many potions, but also had medicinal properties in its own right.
What's more....
Louie, who studied Chinese medicine on his own after being reborn, has seen records about white fresh in countless medical books, and knows that white fresh has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, dispelling wind and relieving itching.
"So.... Just like the record in the book "Muggle Magic", Chinese medicine in my big foodie country is an extremely advanced science, including the herbology and potions that wizards need to master? ”
Louis nodded approvingly, and secretly decided to wait for his future achievements in herbalism and potions among wizards, and then analyze Chinese medicine, which is extremely difficult to learn on his own.
Professor Sprout's herbal class continued, and everyone, including Louie, was carefully recording what she was teaching.
The only headache is....
Herbal medicine classes are often held in two consecutive classes, and the teaching time is long, but they can only stand in the greenhouse, so standing for a long time is undoubtedly a serious challenge for new students.
In order not to attract Professor Sprout's attention, Louie also did not use the dance technique to be lazy, but stood like all the freshmen and listened to the herbal class.
So when the bell rang for the end of class, Louie, who had sore legs, pouted his lips and prepared to go back tonight and start the body modification experiment with William.
It is worth mentioning that the two brothers, George and Fred, met two new friends named Angelina Johnson and Arya Spinnett in the herbal medicine class, and they are two very cute girls.
Due to his limited knowledge of HP movies, Louie has little impression of the girl named Alia, but vaguely remembers Angelina as the future partner of George and one of Fred's two brothers.
As for whether the two played the game of twins in the HP movie, in the process of harmonious communication with Angelina....
Louis didn't know.
On the contrary, he knew better that if the twins hadn't experienced the tragedy in the HP movie, Angelina's married life would have been very happy....
After class, Louis went to Professor Sprout to ask questions as originally planned, and swiped a wave of presence.
Well.
There were no accidents.
Lunch is served in the Great Hall of Hogwarts.
With the addition of two new friends, the lively atmosphere of Louis and the others during the meal was +100, and when the meal was about to end, it was difficult to participate in the Quidditch topic that the twins and Angelina and Arya were chatting about, Galen, who swallowed three pumpkin pies in one bite, asked Louis who had been in a daze for a long time beside him in a vague way:
"Louis... Let's chirp, chirp.... We only have one class in the afternoon, right? ”
"Well, that's right."
Louie, who returned to his thoughts, smiled, "It's Professor Snape's Potions class, and I've been looking forward to it for a long time." ”
"Looking forward to it?"
Angelina, who was originally chatting with the twins about Quidditch, couldn't help but exclaim, and immediately looked at Louie's gaze slowly focused, feeling that he was not very smart, and said with the corners of her mouth twitching:
"Louie, everyone thinks Professor Snape's Potions class is a nightmare, and you say you're looking forward to it?"
"Louis is really looking forward to it."
George explained with a smile, "Unlike us, he doesn't think Snape is terrible, but he thinks Snape is a great wizard. ”
"That's right."
Fred nodded, and George's words continued, "Actually, I think Louie and Snape get along very well, after all... As a freshman like us, he has a good relationship with every professor, and even Filch, doesn't he? ”
"What a miracle...."
Arya, who is also not very familiar with Louie, sighed: "I heard that Professor Snape is the head of Slytherin, and everyone says that he is biased towards Slytherin students, and never adds points to any student in other houses in class, only deducts points severely. So... Do you really think Louis can get along with Professor Snape? ”
"Of course!"
George and Fred swore and laughed:
"We believe he's a miracle worker, right, brother?"
Feeling George, Fred has a strong confident gaze, Louis maintains an embarrassed and polite gaze on the surface, and roars madly inside....
"Where did you get the confidence to think I have what it takes to get Snape to give Gryffindor extra points!"
"Do you want me to look like Harley?"
"Don't think!"
………………
PS1: That Harley meme is really funny, I can't laugh every time I see it....
PS2: Snape is coming!
PS3: There is a recommendation today, I just found out, tomorrow is Monday, I hope that friends who do not collect it, friends who have recommended votes also vote, the first recommendation is often weak, or need more support from everyone~
Thank!
