Chapter 208 The Sacrifice that Changes Once a Year
Chapter 208
Today's Lockhart is still very flamboyant. He is spotless from head to toe. He wears a turquoise top hat with a gold rim on top of his shiny blond hair and a flowing turquoise robe. Among the male teachers, the appearance can be ranked among the top three.
He took Lu Ren and Harry outside the greenhouse, and then smiled what he thought was charming, "Harry, Harry, I really didn't expect you to have such a good idea." His expression was like He was just as excited when he found the people in the same way, "Why didn't I think of it back then. It's a pity to drive a car to Hogwarts. If you told me in advance, you would definitely be on the headlines of the "Daily"!" ,
Lockhart had a regretful look on his face, "Think about it, Lockhart's Travels in a Speeding Car, and Around Great England, what a good theme these are."
Lu Ren finally understood that this guy wanted to grab the headlines, and wanted them to bring him the next time they "did something".In Lockhart's eyes, both Lu Ren and Harry are like-minded people who like to show off and are good at hype. Then, if Lockhart and these two people bind and promote together, wouldn't it be possible to become the top of the magic world?So this time he came to seek cooperation.
In Lockhart's eyes, he has a fan base and is also an "old-timer", and he is really sincere if he is willing to bind and promote together.
"Professor, I have always admired your courage." Lu Ren said suddenly.
Lockhart laughed, and was about to flatter each other, but he didn't expect that what Lu Ren said next made his hair stand on end.
"The things you wrote in your book before, I don't think it's a big deal, but your willingness to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts surprised me. You are a real warrior."
Lockhart: "What?"
"The position of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts is a position cursed by the Dark Lord!" Lu Ren's eyes widened, "The Dark Lord always wanted to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts when he was young, but he always It didn’t work out. In the end, the Dark Lord cursed the position in a fit of rage, and since then, no Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher has been teaching for more than a year, and many of them ended up miserable.”
Lockhart: ? !
"Last year's teacher was killed by Harry himself! Although he deserved what he deserved, he also deserved the Dark Lord's curse, so I really admire you, Professor, for taking over this job." Lu Ren was extremely excited. Talking endlessly about the gossip news he heard, he didn't seem to notice that Lockhart's face gradually became strange.
"Okay, kids, you should go back to class." Lockhart interrupted Lu Ren, "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."
After finishing speaking, he hurried to the library: he needed to look up some information.
Lu Ren and Harry returned to the greenhouse, and Professor Sprout had been waiting for them.She is standing behind a stool.On the stool were about twenty pairs of earmuffs of different colors.After the two sat down next to Hermione, she began to give a lecture: "Our task today is to repot the Mandrake. Harry, Lu Ren, who of you two can tell me the characteristics of the Mandrake? "
"Mandrake, a powerful recovery agent, it is a herb that can restore people who have been deformed or cursed, and its leaves have other magical uses. But it is also extremely dangerous, heard Mandrake The cries of the Draco kill a man."
"Exactly right, add twenty points to Gryffindor—now that you have points, you should pay attention to it, and don't let Professor McGonagall deduct it." Professor Sprout said, and opened a little by the way. joke. "But don't worry, the mandrakes in the school's greenhouse are still very young, and the crying is not fatal. At most, it will make you unconscious."
After a brief introduction to the mandrake, she gave each little wizard a pair of earmuffs. After everyone put on the earmuffs, Professor Sprout brought over a deep plate with a green belt on it. Purple seedlings.She seized the seedling, and with a vigorous lift, pulled out a monstrously ugly baby, which she then transplanted into a large flowerpot.
Seeing this scene, Lu Ren couldn't help thinking of the legend of the "Ginseng Doll" in the Central Plains.If a mandrake can live for hundreds of thousands of years, will it eventually become a talking elf?
"Huh!" A muffled hum came from the bottom of Lu Ren's heart, and it turned out to be Noble.
"This cry really annoys the dragon!" The cry of the mandrake obviously made Norber a little uncomfortable. Of course, it is impossible to let a dragon cry to death with the cry alone, but this sound is also like decoration. The noise is just as annoying to it.
Professor Sprout took off the earmuffs only after the seedlings were completely buried in the soil.Then she asked the little wizards to repot the Mandrake in groups of four.
When Lu Ren started to add fertilizer to the flowerpot, Noble spoke again: "This fertilizer, if I guessed correctly, is the poop of the fire dragon~ Lu Ren, can you go up and smell it? So I Maybe we can tell what kind of fire dragon feces it is."
Lu Ren's face darkened: "If you talk too much, I'll go to the library to look up information on how to block the perception of summoned beasts." Now he feels that it was a wrong decision for Norber to share his sensory organs with him.
Many things seem simple but are difficult to do.Some videos of big guys beating a wolf without injury seem like "I can do it a few times", but only the actual hands know what "the malice of an old thief" is.When Professor Sprout just changed the pot, he was as easy and comfortable as transplanting aloe vera, but you can only know how difficult this thing is when you try it yourself: it neither wants to come out nor go in, and the twisting and turning is very annoying. Headache.
And Harry was extremely unlucky, the doll he pulled out was a bit bigger than the others, and it took them a full 10 minutes to stuff it into the basin.
However, once they were born and seconded, they went a lot smoother the second time, and the key lies in a fast word.Dig a hole first, then pull it out at once while the grass is not paying attention, and then throw it in when it is confused.
Before the end of get out of class, Lu Ren even developed a way that he had never imagined: he directly put the deep-bottomed plate in the flower pot, and then dug away the old soil bit by bit, leaving only a small part.Cut the plate in half, pump it again, and the mandrake falls into the new manure, and finally restore the plate to the original one.
However, they didn't dare to do more with this method of skipping classes, they just took a pot for experimentation.
A little time was thoughtfully reserved between the herbal class and the transformation class, allowing the students to return to the castle to take a shower, and to meet the most difficult class in the cleanest state.
Harry sometimes wondered if the Transfiguration knowledge in his head had flowed away with the water.
