Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 29 The Principle of the Spiritual Elixir

Lu Ke was stunned for a moment: "Snake venom?"

Snape sneered: "Give me a fixed answer, Luke."

Lu Ke shook his head helplessly: "I don't know."

Snape nodded: "You lack talent, Lu Ke, real talent. Of course, in the eyes of mediocre people, you are a genius. You can memorize a general idea after reading the book once, and you are as precise as a machine when you do it, but that It will only make you a craftsman, not a master. Potions, this magical subject, requires inspiration, an elusive flash of inspiration, and thinking is the lowest thing."

Lu Ke smiled: "All descriptions of nature can still maintain a mysterious poetic flavor because science has not yet developed to that level to remove all the mystery and reveal the cold reality. You are right, Professor Snape , This is the case now, but it does not mean that we should like and maintain this status quo.”

Snape bent down and put his nose in front of Lu Ke as if he wanted to eat someone: "Who gave you the courage to speak like this in Hogwarts? Do you think you are Gryffindor!"

Lu Ke shook his head: "Einstein."

"Isaac Newton."

"Yuan Longping."

"Euclidean."

"Gauss."

Snape was stunned for a moment: "What are you talking about? Name?"

Lu Ke nodded: "They told me that everything in the world has rules."

Snape straightened up and glanced at Lu Ke.

"I'll give you a piece of advice," he said with an unknown look on his face, "A Slytherin who is too proud will hurt the people who love you and the people you love."

Lu Ke smiled: "I am an orphan, I don't have any relatives, I am only eleven years old."

Snape nodded: "So you don't deny the pride part."

He turned and waved his wand.

"The Elixir of Fortune is coming."

A small transparent glass bottle flew out from the distant Snape's office, passed through the door, and came to the two of them.

"Do you know about the blessing elixir, Lu Ke?"

Lu Ke shook his head: "This seems to be a high-level magic potion."

Snape showed Lu Ke the liquid with a strange light in the glass bottle: "This magic potion can bring good luck to people. Tell me, what are the rules that allow it to do this and master the magical power?" luck."

Lu Ke shook his head: "I don't know."

Snape was stunned for a moment: "You are so shameless."

Lu Ke couldn't help but laugh: "There's nothing shameful in admitting my ignorance. I just told the truth."

Snape shook his head and put away the elixir.

Then he looked at Lu Ke and hesitated.

"What's the matter, Professor Snape?"

"No one knows why Fulingji has such a medicinal effect. This is an unexplainable problem."

Lu Ke nodded: "Wizards rarely get to the bottom of things. This is a good habit."

Snape shook his head: "What if I leave it to you?"

Lu Ke was stunned for a moment: "What?"

Snape turned around and looked at the three thick textbooks on the table that Lu Ke had just taken out: "It is very simple for you to finish learning the contents of these three books, but if that is all, then there is no need for me to teach you It’s time consuming.”

Lu Ke nodded: "But this topic..."

He originally wanted to say it was a bit too difficult, but suddenly he thought that Professor McGonagall's question of why wizards could cast spells was not easy either.

"It's a little difficult."

Snape looked down at Lu Ke: "Aren't you very confident? Then just treat this as your homework."

Then he turned around and left: "Of course, if you refuse, I don't care."

Lu Ke added behind Snape: "I accept it, it sounds interesting."

But by then, Snape had disappeared behind his office door.

Lu Ke shook his head helplessly and returned to the classroom.

Snape had obviously not forgotten to lock the door to the Potions classroom.

Lu Ke took out his textbook and turned to the second lesson, then took out the materials from the cabinet on the side of the classroom and started making potions.

In fact, after reading the textbook at the beginning, Lu Ke discovered that there was an unspoken internal logic behind this simple potion. Now that he actually started doing it, this feeling became more obvious.

For example, the most difficult part of the first potion is to stop heating at the right time, and then the preparation of the second potion starts to use different temperatures.

With the lesson learned from the first potion, the wizard will notice the flame as soon as the second potion begins. This is a step-by-step process.

Lu Ke was thinking wildly while operating his hands meticulously, and quickly completed a potion.

He tilted his head and looked at the Marauder's Map. It was still very early, and Lu Ke himself didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

So he started mixing the next potion.

Starting this time, you need to use a water bath for heating.

It was still not difficult at all for Lu Ke, and he succeeded again.

Lu Ke felt that he was in good condition.

Although the potion at the beginning was relatively simple, opportunities like this were rare, so Lu Ke started making the next one without hesitation.

By the time he reacted, he had already prepared four potions. In total, he had made all five potions once, and it was a perfect success. Half of the courses in the entire semester were considered completed for him.

And it was only two hours later.

Lu Ke stretched out, put away the four vials, and then walked out of the classroom with a pile of books.

Then we happened to catch up with Snape going out.

"I forgot to lock the classroom door."

Snape nodded to Lu Ke with a cold face, then walked to the door of the Potions classroom and locked the door.

"There will be no Potions class this morning."

Lu Ke stood behind him, suppressing a smile and nodded: "Goodbye Professor Snape."

Snape nodded with his back to Lu Ke and did not answer.

Lu Ke walked through the corridor and walked towards the stairs.

There was less than an hour left before class, and for safety's sake, he felt it was better not to go to Professor Flitwick.

At this time, the Hufflepuff students came out. Lu Ke met them at the corner of the corridor, and then walked upstairs together.

Then following the crowd, Lu Ke walked out of the castle.

Outside, he met a Slytherin student who had just come out, and Johanna came over.

"You didn't have breakfast?"

She looked curious rather than worried.

Lu Ke smiled helplessly: "Ms. Rowling's description of that map is completely true. I tried it this morning."

Johanna nodded, excitement flashing in her eyes: "Have you found any hidden treasures?"

Lu Ke shook his head helplessly: "Not yet, I only got the map half a morning ago."

Johanna looked surprised: "Weren't you so excited that you couldn't sleep last night?"
