41. The making of scabies potion
The theoretical knowledge of a lesson (including taunting Harry) was over, and Lin An had already made countless notes-
Professor Snape was not a very meticulous teacher, for example, the important points he talked about were rarely written on the blackboard, and most of the time they were said directly, and it was up to the students themselves to remember them.
Of course, sometimes he gets angry at this group of students who are too stupid to take notes:
"Got it? Why don't you write it all down? ”
Why bother?
If he said in advance that he needed to take notes, no one in the whole of Hogwarts would dare to challenge his majesty.
As a result, counting on a group of ignorant children made him even angrier.
Thankfully, the boring theoretical knowledge was finally over, and Professor Snape was able to vent his anger all over the room.
And Lin An glanced at the mind map notes again, made sure that he had memorized all the steps, and then put on gloves and carefully observed the key materials of this lesson-
That is, the ingredients needed to make a simple scabies potion.
Dried nettles, snake fangs, slugs, porcupine spines.
There are four medicinal herbs in total, which is too streamlined, and it is really only an entry-level.
Professor Snape divided all the students into pairs, Lynn and Draco in pairs, and Neville and Seamus next door.
On Neville's other side, there were Ron and Harry.
Looking down from above, it looks like this-
Ron/Harry//Seamus/Neville//Lynn'an/Draco
If you look at it from Lin An's eyes, this potion is really not difficult.
It's not even as meticulous as when she first entered the biology lab in her previous life and carefully took out the corn sprout and observed it on a glass slide.
First, weigh a fixed weight of dried nettle (with the help of a balance, as long as the weights are correct, no one should be able to do it, right?). )
Second, the fangs of the two snakes were mashed with a stone mortar.
The snake's teeth have already been concocted, they are very loose, and they have been crumbled into slag after being lightly ground.
This is followed by steaming the slugs with antennae.
— like steaming buns.
Well, that's a bit difficult, after all, British students have basically never done this job. But unexpectedly, Draco turned out to be doing just fine.
But seriously, slugs, which are soft creatures, are steamed and cooked, and would rather cook more, as long as they are not raw.
For Lin An, the biggest difficulty was when she put the slugs on the steaming rack – it was really disgusting.
Thankfully, they have clips and gloves.
If she really can't, she still has a levitation charm.
However, she only hesitated for a moment, and Draco reached out from the side and placed two soft and sticky slugs on the steaming rack.
Then he said to her with a smug and expectant expression: "If you don't know, you can follow me." ”
Ah, what a proud look.
Lin An smiled and thanked him, "Draco, you're amazing!" ”
Draco pursed his lips, but finally couldn't hold back, revealing a smile.
Behind her, Pansy's smashing of the snake's teeth became more and more violent.
Their movements were unhurried, methodical, and the two worked together, and by the time everything was ready, it had only taken fifteen minutes, just the time it took to steam two slugs.
Draco was also visibly incredulous: "Oh my God! We're so efficient! ”
But the Slytherin students behind him were obviously a little trembling under the constant inspection of the dean.
Seeing that Professor Snape had already walked around to Gryffindor, Lin An hurriedly picked up his notebook and read it in a voice that everyone could hear:
"The first step is to weigh out 50 grams of dried nettle."
"The second step is to smash the snake's teeth."
"The third step is to put the steaming rack into a crucible with 400 milliliters of water, and put two slugs on the steaming rack."
"Once the fire is hot and all the splashes are boiling, wait five minutes. Take the steamer off the rack. ”
Behind them, no matter whether they did it or not, they were frantically taking notes, and by the way, they were also comparing their own experimental procedures.
Next door, Neville Longbottom also took out the parchment in a panic: "I...... I'm going to take note of that too...... My memory is always not so good. ”
However, Seamus said warily, "That's Slytherin!" ”
