Harry Potter and the Burnt Badger
Page 168
But firstly, cooperating with them will give Moon a strange feeling; secondly, the Animagus of the two professors are ground animals and cannot fly, so the risks they will have to bear will be greater, not to mention The field of vision is not as broad as that of birds, and they are not able to take in the overall situation.
To be honest, if Fox was not entering the stage of aging and about to be reborn from the ashes, he should be a more suitable candidate than Debbie.Not to mention that in the original work, Fox also performed such a wonderful carry-level operation that he directly blinded the Basilisk's eyes.
But the timing was right, and there was nothing anyone could do.
On the way back, Moon was still stumbling.But to be honest, Debbie seems to be much more receptive during this real day-to-day action.After only two times, it learned to remind Moon to go up or down the steps, but sometimes it would accidentally miss one or two steps.
In addition, he also met the professor who patrolled the castle twice:
The first time was Professor Flitwick, who was standing outside the door of the Great Hall. Like Hagrid, he was frightened by Moon's appearance and almost used a stretcher to send Moon to the school hospital;
The other time it was Professor Snape - when his eyes glanced over, Debbie was frightened and shouted in her heart that there was danger ahead and she had to avoid it as soon as possible.
To be fair, if it were another professor, Moon would still be able to sense some emotions and realize that there was a person there, and most likely a professor on patrol.But Professor Snape's superb Occlumency technique did not work on Munn's perception. Therefore, Debbie's voice made Munn think that something was going on in the castle, and he immediately slapped him in front of Professor Snape. He took off his blindfold and took out his wand.
When he saw Professor Snape's face which was "three parts cold, three parts sneer and four parts careless" (actually it was only full of sarcasm), Moon immediately felt the urge to strangle Dai to death. The urge to compare.
What is social death?
That's it.
Especially since he died in front of Professor Snape, Moon dared to risk his life to guarantee that Professor Snape would definitely bring this matter up to severely mock him in the next Potions class.And if the effect is good, I'm afraid Professor Snape will use it in more classes, including classes in other grades and other colleges.
"Hello...professor."
"Hello, Mr. Fox." Professor Snape raised the corner of his mouth, and the malice on his face was almost completely concealed. "Tsk, let me see. Are you planning to attack in the campus corridor late at night?" A professor? Did the words from the principal's mouth that day make you so dizzy that you made such an... unwise choice? Maybe you should recite the spell first, maybe it will work. It can make the success rate higher.”
Moon stiffly forced a smile on his face, "Sorry, Professor, I don't. I'm just... practicing my ability to respond to danger quickly."
"Oh?" Professor Snape looked at Moon in feigned surprise. "Ah, sorry, I almost forgot. Ever since you came to Hogwarts, your favorite thing to do is to crawl into dangerous places. Do some 'rescue' actions that don't overestimate your capabilities. Then I'm afraid it is indeed necessary for you to exercise well——"
As he spoke, the corners of his eyes suddenly drooped, and he said with a half-smile: "——Or, can I understand that this is all your fabrication? In fact, you are just Want to caricature a professor as a 'danger in your eyes'? Mr. Fox?"
Moon lowered his head. The wisest choice at the moment was obviously to continue to admit his mistake, so he had no choice but to reprimand Debbie fiercely in his mind while repeating his apology again, "Sorry, Professor, I didn't."
Poor Debbie listened with a blank face, not knowing what she had done wrong.
Isn't such a vicious look considered dangerous?
Professor Snape sneered, and then glanced at Debbie who was squatting on Moon's shoulder. "Then, would you mind explaining to me, the professor you are sorry for, what you are doing? Take your owl with you." Playing blind games in the school corridors? Is this some new trend among students?”
"Yes, Professor, I'm trying to see if I can move normally without seeing."
"reason?"
"...No reason, just a whim."
Professor Snape did not immediately raise any new questions. He looked at Moon up and down again, then walked up to Moon and took a closer look at the black cloth covering Moon's eyes.
Until a few seconds later, he suddenly saw a roll of robes. "There is a very uncommon potion that no one has used for a long time, because its effectiveness is very useless to regular wizards." Potions books are placed on the left side of the library. The first shelf, the second row, the seventh book. When making the mixture, remember to change the crucible to a brass crucible, change the clockwise stirring from seven times to five times, and then stir it counterclockwise five times."
"And, next time you do something stupid like this, remember to clean your robes. You will be deducted five points from Hufflepuff for being disheveled."
Professor Snape, who walked quietly, left a few words inexplicably, and quickly deducted five points from Hufflepuff, just left in front of Moon, leaving only Moon behind. He stood there and waited for the professor to leave for a long time before he couldn't help but turn around and glare at Debbie fiercely, then waved his wand to clean up all the blood, stains and dust on his robe.
Unfortunately, Debbie stopped looking at him at this moment. Instead, she ran over and stared at the portrait next to her. Moon's glare was completely in vain.
A few minutes later, Moon, who finally arrived in the Hufflepuff common room, took off his blindfold and fell down on the soft sofa.
Although you can use spells to heal the injuries you sustained when you bumped or fell, the pain you endured at that time, or the physical and mental fatigue after a whole night, are obviously not something that healing spells can remove.
Debbie was wandering around the common room, staring at the toad raised by some little wizard for a long time, and said to Munn carelessly that she didn't know if the toad was delicious, and hoped that Munn would give it to it in the future. Buy some edible toads.
At this moment, Moon stopped nagging Debbie and simply agreed lazily to Debbie, and turned over hard so that he could lie on the sofa in front of the fire in a more comfortable position.
Looking at the flames that kept leaping in the fireplace, Moon rarely had any thoughts. He was just dazed and lost in consciousness.Soon - before he knew it, he fell asleep like this.
"Moon? Moon?"
"Um……?"
"Wake up, why did you fall asleep here?"
Listening to the calls and questions in his ears, Moon reluctantly opened his eyes that were still a little dry, and looked to his side, only to see that the person who woke him up was a seventh-grade senior whom he was not very familiar with.He was startled and hurriedly rolled over from the sofa. It was only when he looked out the window that he realized that the sky outside was already getting a little hazy and bright.
Obviously, there is not much time left before dawn.
"It's okay, don't be nervous, I just got up early and went to the common room to read for a while." The senior sister looked at Moon's somewhat flustered look and quickly smiled and waved to him, "If you If you want to, it actually doesn't matter if you sleep here for a while longer. But I still recommend that you go to the dormitory, at least... you should still be able to enjoy the soft bed for an hour. "
Chapter 36 "Guidelines for the Preparation of Twenty Powerful Animalistic Potions"
"Sorry... I was sitting here last night and accidentally fell asleep..." Moon rubbed his hair and looked to the left and right, only to find that Debbie had disappeared into the public rest room. In the room, I don’t know whether it slipped out on its own in the middle of the night last night, or whether someone passed by the common room and let Debbie out.
Either way, it saved Munn some trouble.
"Don't worry about it." The senior sister waved her hand with a smile, waving her wand to light the extinguished fireplace, and at the same time also lit up the lamp on the small square table next to her, and then went over to flip through her book - it seemed It is a classic book related to herbal medicine. It seems to be the content of this senior's NEWT exam.
Moon responded, thanked his senior sister, and then dragged his still sleepy body back into his dormitory.While there was still some time, he simply lay down on the bed without taking off his clothes and quickly resumed his sleep.
So, when I woke up again, it was already an hour later.
For some reason, this sleepy energy lingered on Munn. It wasn't until he finished breakfast and drank two large glasses of hot milk that he finally felt a little more alive.
What's a pity is that there is no sleeping class from Professor Binns all day long...no, it's a History of Magic class, and the first class is Professor Flitwick's Charms class.In order to prevent herself from being too embarrassed in class, Moon could only run to the bathroom and use cold water to moisturize her face.
"I emphasize again, everyone, the summoning spell cannot make things appear in front of you out of thin air - the summoned objects can only fly over by themselves, understand? This means that when you cast the summoning spell, there are certain The distance is limited. If it is too far away, this spell will not work. In addition, if the object you want to summon is in a box, the box will also become an obstacle on the path."
Professor Flitwick stood on the high platform and paced back and forth, waving the wand in his hand from time to time, controlling the books and small objects around him to fly into his hand again and again, and then fall to the side.
"Also, what is the most important point in casting a summoning spell? That's right! It's determination! If you want to really make the object fly into your hands, then you must have enough determination and expectation, and your thoughts must be Just be firm enough!”
"Gal Fuller, that's right, Mr. Fuller, come on, give us a demonstration, just use..." The professor's eyes wandered around the classroom twice, and finally fell on the apple that Milton put on the table: "Just use that apple."
Gal nodded cautiously, cleared his throat, then took out his wand and pointed at the apple.
"Accio!"
The apple that was standing steadily on the table suddenly jumped into the air and flew straight into Gal's palm. Gal opened his palm happily and waited for the apple to fall, but he didn't expect that the apple suddenly seemed to have lost its traction and stood upright. He fell down halfway and almost hit Keira on the head, allowing the little girl to make a cameo appearance as Newton.
The little wizards burst into laughter. Keira, who almost became a victim, angrily picked up the apple and threw it to Gal. Milton looked at his apple distressedly and opened his mouth several times but was too embarrassed to throw the apple away. Wanting to come back, he had no choice but to vent his anger and join in the laughter at Gal.
"Determination! Mr. Fuller! You need to be determined!" Professor Flitwick looked at Garr with hatred because Garr failed to successfully use the summoning spell in the last class. "Until the Apple is summoned, you will Don’t let your mind wander, otherwise something like this will happen.”
At this time, Professor Flitwick did not realize that it was his words that prompted Garr to become a "man without determination" after class.Especially those who have a better relationship with Gal, such as Milton and Yakman, they almost think of this as Gal's new nickname.
Gal himself didn't take this very seriously, but he just felt that he didn't like everyone's wording - he felt that he should still be a "boy" rather than a "man".
Moon didn't take much part in the discussion because the end of Charms class meant he would have to part ways with his roommates.Cedric and Gal will take Muggle studies classes, while Moon will have to study ancient runes alone.So, by the time they got together again, it was already lunch time.
Happily, the discussion has not completely ended until this point. Yaerin and Gal are still arguing about whether Gal is a man or a boy.To be precise, Yarling believed that Gal was not a "boy" but a "teenager", while Gal insisted that he was still a child.
In this regard, Moon commented that it would be a pity for two boring gangsters not to work on the construction site.
Of course, that's what he said, but in fact, he was listening with great interest and was very happy.When they got to the exciting part, they even wanted to pull Cedric along and applaud them both.
The main character is an unscrupulous person.
With Gal and Yaerlin arguing over the meal, Moon's speed in settling lunch almost doubled.Then, just after finishing lunch, he immediately said goodbye to Violet and his roommates who were eating together, and went straight to the library.Looking at his flying posture, those who didn't know better might have thought that he had eaten too much at the Hogwarts dining table.
Fortunately, he wasn't really hungry, because as soon as he rushed to the entrance of the auditorium, he was blocked by Lee Jordan who happened to walk in from outside.
"Hey Moon, I've been looking for you everywhere."
"?" Moon was stunned for a moment, and then immediately realized that Li was probably going to tell him about the Halloween dinner.
Previously, Professor Dumbledore said that he would let them plan this year's Halloween dinner. Originally, Moon had planned to handle the related matters by himself, but then several small situations that appeared in succession disrupted his arrangements. .So he arranged the matter for Li - this guy also had a wide range of friends and had good relationships with the players on the Quidditch teams of various colleges. He could also find Fred and George, a pair of noisy guys, to help him. It's perfect for doing something like these statistics.
Sure enough, Li quickly said: "It's the statistics you asked me to get before. I found a lot of people and collected a rough result - guess what? It's exactly the same as what I said. Sure enough, there is still More people chose the costume party. I know that people prefer this kind of party where they can dress up casually."
As he spoke, he took out a rolled piece of parchment from his pocket and handed it to Munn. "By the way, many people think that if we can invite the Weird Sisters over, the effect will be great." Okay. I thought, maybe you can think of a way? After all, several of them have just graduated, and isn’t Sluston, the seventh-year student in your college, very close to them? I’ve heard of the Weird Sisters before. The people are planning to bring him into the group."
"Slaston... Orsino Slaston?" Moon thought of Slaston who wanted to knock on everything he saw. Indeed, it seemed that he had heard it mentioned by Gal or Cedric before. By the way, Sluston plans to join the Weird Sisters as a drummer as soon as he graduates.
"Yes, that's him." Li nodded immediately, "That cool guy who secretly wears a leather jacket under his robe every day."
"...?" Moon glanced at Hufflepuff's long table in surprise, where Sluston was chatting and laughing.To be honest, just by looking at it, I didn't realize that this guy actually had a leather jacket under his robe.
What's even more exaggerated is that as a student of Hufflepuff's main house, he has never heard of this kind of thing that even Li knows about.
No, I have to torture Gal and Yaerin later when I have time, so that they can tell me more about these gossips in the future.
He hadn't realized that Gal had actually mentioned Sluston's habit to him before, and he had said it last year - but at that time, he was thinking about the werewolves and didn't listen at all. Too carefully.
"Well, I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Li." Moon took the parchment and manually gave Li Jordan a thumbs up. "I will take a closer look when I go back at night. If there is no problem, I will think of a solution. Let’s see if we can invite the weird sisters.”
"No problem." Li's eyes lit up. "If you can really invite them here, you must tell me in advance. This weekend is Halloween, and the school newspaper won't have time to publish it. This is my first-hand news. When the time comes, It’ll definitely scare them all.”
"Easy to say, easy to say." Moon nodded, and while Li was still thinking about the good things that would happen after he got the first-hand news, he slipped out of his side.
He had seen how eloquent Li was. After all, he was someone who could commentate on football games. If he didn't take the opportunity to run away, I'm afraid Li could hold him here and chat until the lunch break was over and the afternoon class started.
If Professor McGonagall went to the auditorium on a whim and took a second look during this period, and saw him standing blocking the door of the auditorium again...
That would be embarrassing.
…………
Even during lunch time, there were not many people in the Hogwarts library - although Mrs. Pince's management was very strict and she clearly prohibited anyone from eating here. It is said that the only exception was Dumbledore. Professor Lido, because he was seen stuffing candy bars into his mouth in the library.
But if you think about it carefully, regular candy bars shouldn't be banned either.
The reason why many people choose to come to the library during lunch time is not because there are so many studious and reading-loving little wizards in Hogwarts.The main problem is that many senior wizards come here to review their exam content for this year, especially the students from Gryffindor and Ravenclaw.After all, as long as you stay at Hogwarts for a long time, you will realize that the life of climbing up and down between the first and eighth floors at noon every day is really extremely painful.
What's more, during the noon period, the library is actually much quieter and more comfortable than the auditorium or common room during lunch break.As long as you read here seriously for a while and wait for half an hour or 10 minutes, there will be quite a few noisy junior wizards in the auditorium.At that time, they can take their books to the auditorium and eat and read at the same time more conveniently.
After saying hello to Mrs. Pince, Moon plunged into the "grand formation" formed by rows of bookshelves.In order not to affect the senior wizards who were studying hard for exams, he deliberately kept his footsteps very soft to avoid making too much noise.
"The first shelf on the left is the Potions books..."
According to the position Professor Snape mentioned last night, row after row of bookshelves were ignored by Moon. He was a frequent visitor to the library, not to mention that Mrs. Pince liked the almost obsessive-compulsive habit of organizing all the books. It's well behaved, so he doesn't even need to pay much attention. He can roughly judge which bookshelf he is looking for just from his memory.
"It should be this one...the second row, the seventh book...fortunately, it's not a vacancy. Huh? Why is this book so..."
Looking at the obviously too "dirty" book in his hand, Moon couldn't help but frown slightly, always feeling very awkward - this was not like a book that would appear in Mrs. Pince's library. It was everywhere. The traces of graffiti and the rough edges of the pages fully demonstrate how much damage this book has suffered since its birth. Some pages were even almost torn in half, making it difficult for anyone to open it. Not being as cautious as possible.
To be honest, if any little wizard dares to do this to the books in the library, although Mrs. Pince is unlikely to chase him on a "race around Hogwarts", she will definitely run directly to the principal's office. To complain.
"A guide to the preparation of twenty powerful animalistic potions...?"
Okay, the name of the book is also a bit weird, Animalistic Potion. It always sounds like it will turn people into stupid dogs.
He flipped through two pages and discovered something more outrageous: the book had no author, no editor, and no publisher information or year of publication.But the handwriting on it is not the kind of handwriting that one writes in ancient books, but a very ordinary printed style.Rather than appearing in a library, this book feels like it should appear on the bookshelf of someone who is keen on writing books for their own entertainment and has the money to print one themselves.
It just gets weirder and weirder the more I look at it.
However, the potions in the book are very suitable for the name of the book:
There is a magic potion that can make people grow gills and webs, and there are several writings on the side that say "It's better to just eat the gillweed, fool";
There is also a potion that can make a thick, warm layer of fur grow on the outside of a person's body. Someone wrote under the potion formula, "Why not just use a heat preservation charm."
Moon even found a potion that allows people to directly observe the world with the compound eyes of a fly. To be honest, if the pattern of the compound eyes of a fly was not printed at the end of these pages, the scary feeling might not be so strong. .
He flipped through the pages of this strange book in his hand. To be honest, these potions looked a bit useless, but if you look closely, it is not that each formula is completely meaningless, and Munn is still there. Some truly fantastic potion creations were found inside.
But I have to say that what Professor Snape said was not only correct, but also unusually tactful.
The potions in this potion book are not "unknown" and "useless to ordinary wizards", but... they cannot be used by ordinary wizards at all.Not only that, Moon even felt that this book should be put away by Mrs. Pince directly instead of being displayed openly here, because the potions in this book are, how should I say, just one trap after another.
At the end of the book, in the conclusion, there is this passage:
"The original intention of inventing these potions is that I think there are always some parts of the human body that can still imitate animals and even magical creatures. There are many organs and limbs of animals and magical creatures, which are simply good news to humans. Therefore, I used all my imagination to make this idea a reality, but it also caused me great trouble, because almost every potion here has the same fatal flaw."
"When you take the corresponding potion, you will immediately grow the organs and parts with the required functions - originally, these organs and parts should disappear after the effect of the potion ends. However, in fact, these potions The effect doesn’t seem to go away.”
"I don't know what went wrong. I checked the formula of the potion and the method of casting the spell again and again. However, it seems that there should be no problem at all."
"In short...if I successfully correct this problem, then this book will be published smoothly, and I will become a real rising star in the potion world; if I don't..."
"Then it's probably impossible for me to turn back into a real human being."
When he saw the last sentence, Moon was stunned and dumbfounded. Good guy, how many kinds of magic potions in the book did the author test on himself?
Are you so overwhelmed?
Could it be that he drank a magic potion, and after discovering something was wrong, he simply tried them all to see which one could change back to normal?
Moon took a deep breath. He didn't quite understand that there was indeed something in this book that came from bats, which could make people's hearing stronger, and they could even judge the surrounding environment with the help of echoes.However... is this price too high?
It couldn't be that Professor Snape felt that his talent in potions was enough to improve these formulas, right?
Munn himself found it funny when he thought about it. Although his talent in potions was indeed good, he was more interested in learners and users rather than inventors. Therefore, if he wanted to reach the level of being able to correct an erroneous formula, Then he still needs a lot of accumulation before he can do it.
But the content of this book has stopped abruptly here, and even the author who did not want to be named wrote the conclusion...
and many more……
