"Potter, where did you know this? I don't remember it being recorded in the book."
The tense expression on Snape's face relaxed slightly.
'At least not quite as stupid as that. '
"Dudley told me." Harry answered very honestly.
Snape nodded thoughtfully, his eyes rarely moving away from Harry and falling on Dudley.
"So Dursley, do you have anything to add to what Potter said? Please answer the first two questions."
"Narcissus root powder and mugwort can be mixed together to make a very powerful sleeping pill, which is just one dose of water of life and death. Bezoar is a stone taken from the stomach of a cow and has a strong detoxifying effect."
These problems were child's play for Dudley.
"Very well, two points for Slytherin."
Snape seemed to be in a good mood.
Hermione almost jumped up. Even though she raised her hand for a long time, Snape didn't ask her to answer, and she gave Dudley two points in vain.
Now, the gap is even bigger.
"Work in pairs. In the first class, we will learn something very simple and prepare a scabies treatment potion."
To be honest, the scabies treatment potion is not simple at all. It is a potion with a certain degree of difficulty in the first-grade textbook. Of course, this difficulty is for ordinary little wizards. According to the content in the book, the first lesson should only be a brief introduction. The subject of potions.
But Snape obviously didn't think so. He didn't want to just teach students theoretical knowledge.
Doing it is the best way to learn.
After a simple demonstration on the stage, he shuttled back and forth among the two-person groups to guide the little wizards from time to time, watching them weigh dried nettles, crush snake fangs, and point out their mistakes.
To be fair, Snape is a very responsible teacher. He can accurately point out the little wizard's mistakes every time. As long as he follows the steps he guides, he can always successfully complete the potion making.
"You are a simple-minded guy with strong limbs. The goblins next door are much smarter than you."
"How many times have I told you to release the porcupine quills first? Are your brains filled with feces like the troll's?"
"If I were you, I would dig a hole in the ground and bury my head so that others don't know it's empty."
The premise is that you can tolerate his 'venom', especially if you have to repeat the words he instructs you a second time. Snape's eccentric temperament has a way of hurting people, and the height of his curses opened Dudley's eyes. The young wizards directly criticized him for being autistic. Almost all the students were criticized, but only a few were spared.
Hermione is one of them.
Hermione's potion talent is quite strong. In Dudley's words, Hermione is the little wizard he has ever seen who is second only to him in potion skills, although he has never seen a few little wizards cook it before. Potion.
But this cannot deny Hermione's level. She was only half a beat behind Dudley to complete the production.
Snape took a look at the potion made by Hermione. He neither praised nor belittled it. He simply said "passed" and walked away.
This made Hermione so angry that she still expected extra points.
The fact that Snape didn't complain already shows that Hermione did a good job, but it was just not good enough.
If you want to get praise from Potions Master Snape, it is not enough to simply complete the potion making.
Then Snape came to Dudley, picked up the potion that had been made on the table, and looked at it carefully.
“Scabies treatment potion (perfect).”
This was the first time Dudley had made a potion of perfect quality, and it was still an unfamiliar potion. On the one hand, this potion was relatively simple for Dudley, and on the other hand, it was thanks to Snape's teachings. Even if you only have a little bit of experience as a potion master, you will benefit a lot.
Of course, there is also the credit of the Data Magic Eye. Dudley, who turned on the Data Magic Eye, was like turning on a plug-in, and his accuracy in controlling the heat was almost to the extreme.
The potion reaches a perfect transparent color.
Snape looked at the potion in the bottle and fell into deep thought. He had not seen such a perfect potion for many years.
The last time I saw it was from Lily, he and Lily completed it together.
This was also the only happy memory Snape had in his life.
She originally expected Lily's child to make it, but she didn't expect it to be made by someone else... although it was related to Lily.
Sister Lily's child...Penny's child...
Snape knew Petunia. He and the Evans family were neighbors, and Evans was Petunia's and Lily's last name before they got married.
While stroking the crystal vial in his hand, Snape felt a little complicated in his heart, and there was a slight ripple in his blank eyes.
In a daze, he seemed to see the little Gryffindor girl named Granger secretly baring her teeth at Petunia's child. And Petunia's child secretly pinched the other person's cheek.
Looking at them, time seems to have returned twenty years ago. This moment is exactly the same as that moment, the little wizard and the little witch, myself and Lily.
It's just...there's no going back.
If either Dudley or Hermione had emerald green eyes, it would be a killer for Snape, but Dudley inherited Petunia's blue-green eyes, while Hermione's eyes were purely brown. .
Intrigued by the scene, Snape took the potion made by Dudley and stayed there for three minutes in a daze.
The little wizards were very curious. Could it be that the potion made by Dursley was so good that even the professor couldn't bear to put it down?
Or did he do it so badly that the professor was thinking about how to scold him?
If there are senior people from Slytherin House here, then they will definitely feel that their Dean is unexpectedly strange today.
He actually didn't scold Gryffindor for three whole minutes.
There was a sudden explosion in the classroom, breaking the tranquility, and then puffs of acidic green smoke came out, accompanied by a pungent smell and hissing sound.
It was Seamus. This guy didn't know what he added to the crucible, which caused an explosion during the cooking of the potion. The entire crucible was burned and deformed. Countless highly corrosive liquids were scattered everywhere, and many small children The wizard's clothes and shoes were burned with holes. The worst thing was Neville, who was sprayed all over and covered with red and swollen scabies. He screamed in pain, but Seamus ran away when he saw something bad happened. .
"Are you a brainless goblin?" Snape also woke up at this time, put the potion away quietly, and wiped away the potion splashed on the ground with a wave of his wand, and at the same time shouted at Mo Xi roared angrily.
"Not only did the porcupine quills be added in advance, but I also didn't pay attention to the temperature of the flame...How many times have I said this question today? I really want to pry open your brain and see if it is filled with fecal stones."
"And you, Potter. Why didn't you remind him? One point from Gryffindor for that."
"You are truly the worst class I have ever led."
Just at this time, the Potions class ended.
"Today's homework is to write a paper about the four-inch scabies treatment potion. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer in the next class."
Snape finally did not forget to assign homework, and then paused.
"Dursley will stay for a moment, the others can go."
