Chapter 20: Snape's Potions Lesson

"You waste, don't you have long eyes, and what you call it a dried nettle?"

"Fool, it's the fangs of the smashing snake, do you know what it means to smash?"

As the young wizards began to follow the steps to make potions, Snape dragged his long black cloak around the classroom to check it.

However, his scolding barely stopped, and all the little wizards he passed by were sprayed with blood by him.

Even the little wizards of Slytherin are no exception, and they are still scolded if they make mistakes.

Looking at the stern Professor Snape, Xiao Yiren couldn't help grinning, only to feel that everything was so familiar, and it felt like he was back in that high school.

Snape was an English teacher, and he was one of those little wizards, reprimanded all the time.

"What is here? It's going to be in the past tense here, what's the matter, you can still have breakfast in the evening......"

"Here's the subjunctive mood ......"

It's just that it's not him who is being trained now.

Of course, Hermione was not in Snape's reprimand for the time being.

Although Hermione's talent in charms and broomsticks is average, even if she is a scholar and a diligent learner, she is still decent because of her average level of magic.

But in Potions and the history of magic, which require more theory than magic, Hermione's talent is unquestionable.

Even if Snape saw it, there was nothing to say, but it was absolutely impossible to ask him to add points to Hermione.

Pink smoke came out of the cauldron in front of Hermione, which also showed that the potion for the boil had been successfully concocted, and this potion refining was considered a success.

Xiao Yiren lay not far away and looked at the potion in front of Hermione, his eyes slowly dilating in this gloomy environment.

"Shaking a wand, is that the thing?"

Recalling the magic released by Hermione when she was brewing potions, Xiao Yiren was thoughtful, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Oops!"

At this moment, Neville and Seamus, who were in the next group, suddenly let out an exclamation, their crucible leaked for some reason, the potion spilled, and the green acidic smoke suddenly rose.

Fortunately, although Neville's reaction speed was so slow that it was not the same as none at all, Seamus still reacted a little, pulling Na and falling directly to the ground, avoiding such a catastrophe.

Even so, Harry and Ron, on Neville's other side, were splashed with potion on their shoes, burning them with several holes.

As for the smoke that was rising, it flew straight towards Hermione after passing Naville and Seamus.

Xiao Yiren, who noticed this phenomenon, instantly blew up, Nima, such thick shoes burped in an instant, wouldn't it be cold if he was brought like this.

As a cat, Xiao Yiren's reaction speed is faster than that of rattlesnakes, four times that of humans, and the smoke is not fast, Xiao Yiren still has a certain amount of reaction time.

Looking at Hermione, who had not yet reacted and was still standing in place in a daze, at this moment, Xiao Yiren's brain burst into a brainstorm.

"What to do, why don't I remember Hermione getting hurt because of this thing in the books? It's only been a few days, where is the butterfly effect......"

There are countless thoughts in his head, but the main thing is to think about how to save Hermione, after all, they have been together for so long, if he really wants to look at Hermione's hands, Xiao Yiren is really unwilling.

"Cleansing spells? Levitation Charm? ……”

Xiao Yiren's current spells are really pitiful.

Xiao Yiren can't learn spells directly with a wand like a young wizard, and use his movements and words to guide his magic power, he can only use his bloodline skills to observe the magic operation of other wizards when they cast magic powers.

If Hermione hadn't practiced some spells before going to school, Xiao Yiren wouldn't have been able to release even a spell.

The time was only a matter of minutes, but Xiao Yiren quickly found the optimal solution.

He glanced at the distance between the smoke and Hermione, and then instantly bent his legs and jumped into the arms of an unprepared Hermione.

"Huh?"

The sudden impact on her chest directly caused Hermione's body to tilt back slightly, but Xiao Yiren's body was still too light, and it was still impossible to hit someone.

Therefore, Hermione suddenly felt the soles of her feet slip, her body leaned back, and her legs moved directly forward, and her body fell backwards without standing firmly.

"Ahh

"Smack~"

With a scream, Hermione fell directly to the ground, and the green corrosive smoke drifted in front of Hermione by a fraction of a second.

The whole process may seem like a long time, but it actually took less than five seconds.

That was enough time for Snape to react.

"Scourgify"

As a milky white light erupted from the wand in Snape's hand, like a glowing arrow, it slammed into front of the smoke in the blink of an eye.

The next moment, the green smoke that was originally the size of a coffee table disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Idiot!"

When Snape finished dealing with the smoke that might have hurt the young wizard, he roared over and waved his wand to sweep away the potions and green smoke that had been spilled on the ground:

"I suppose you probably put the porcupine thorn in without opening the cauldron from the fire, did you?"

Neville and Seamonay got up from the ground and didn't speak, apparently acquiescing.

"Gryffindor has been deducted one point for your idiotic behavior, hurry back and reconcoct!"

After scolding, Snape directly flicked his robe, glanced at Hermione who fell down with a vague look, and saw that she was not injured, so he snorted and continued to turn into a "poisonous snake" among the little wizards.

Only then did Hermione barely recover from the blindfold she had just fallen.

"Hmm~"

Humming to her feet, Hermione touched the back of her head, a look of confusion on her fair face.

"It doesn't hurt?"

Obviously, I fell, so why didn't it hurt?

couldn't figure it out, Hermione simply stopped thinking about it, hugged Xiao Yiren who was still lying on his chest with one hand, supported the ground with the other, and slowly stood up.

Standing up again, Hermione looked at the gray-faced Neville, and then she completely came back to her senses, hugged Xiao Yiren with some joy, and said very happily:

"Thank you, Wait, if it weren't for you, I'd be hurt......"

"Meow~ (It's good that you know...... )”

In response, Xiao Yiren waved his paw in response.

As for why Hermione fell without any pain, it was naturally Xiao Yiren's operation, Xiao Yiren knocked down Hermione just to let her avoid danger, if Hermione was injured because of this, then it can't be said.

Although Xiao Yiren's levitation charm was a little reluctant to lift a person, it was still easy to push the person's footsteps and reduce the impact of Hermione's fall.

"Miss Granger, I think it's class time, shouldn't you do something related to class?"

At this moment, a voice like a poisonous snake suddenly sounded from behind her, which frightened Hermione and almost threw Xiao Yiren out of her hand.

Turning his head mechanically, Hate saw Snape with hair, oily, black wizard robes, and a man like a big bat.

"I'm sorry professor......"

Hermione hurriedly opened her mouth to apologize, but before he could finish speaking, the words that came out of Snape's mouth gave him a direct slap in the face.

"Because of you, Gryffindor deducts three points......"

After speaking, he turned around directly and left, without looking at Hermione, who was stunned in place and looked aggrieved.

As for Xiao Yiren, who was held in Hermione's arms, his face was full of helplessness, and it was no wonder that Snape was so hateful......

At the same time, Xiao Yiren also looked at the floor that had been restored by Snape.

"The preparation of potions is not so safe, and a mistake in the experiment may cost you your life.

And it's just the simplest potion to make.

Come to think of it, there are so few potions masters in the wizarding world, which may also have a big reason for the danger of concocting potions.

If I don't have a talent for potion concoction, not only will I fail to concoct and waste a lot of precious raw materials, but I may also have to put my life in danger. ”

Just as Xiao Yiren was thinking, the old bat quietly walked up to Harry and Ron again.

Walking behind Harry, Snape's eyes did not move, and after a glance at Harry's face, he suddenly paused again, and then turned his head to look at Harry who was steaming tentacle slugs without hesitation:

"Potter, why didn't you tell Neville not to add porcupine spines? Do you think he's going wrong and showing you? Gryffindor lost twenty points because of you. ”

Harry: "Who am I?" Where am I? What am I doing? ”
