"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the elixir of good fortune called the 'lucky potion'." Snape said the last potion calmly, "It is said that just a small spoonful can bring good luck to people. All day long, all my wishes have come true, and this bottle——"
Slughorn was already very satisfied, but when he heard Snape had something to add, his eyes lit up and he looked at him expectantly.
"This bottle should be a concentrated version of the elixir!" Snape said with certainty, "The normal elixir should be golden, and only the concentrated version is this dark gold color. I mentioned it in the "Advanced Potions Illustrated Book" I have seen it in the book, and it is said that the entire magic world can produce no more than 20 people. It seems that the level of your magic potion is quite high."
"Very good, very good!" Slughorn said as he clapped his hands, "Even I can't say it any better. Well deserved, twenty points from Ravenclaw."
"By the way, if you don't have Mr. Snape's knowledgeable memory, then why don't you write this down?" Slughorn reminded the students while the students were busy writing. , Slughorn looked at Snape again.
"You can sit down, Mr. Snape." Slughorn said with a smile, "When I was your age, I didn't know as much as you did. I'm curious, you are a pure-blood family. Where are you from?"
"I'm half-blood, Professor." Snape looked at him calmly.
"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter." Slughorn nodded with some disappointment, and then encouraged Snape, "Origin means nothing, kid. Most of the officials in the Ministry of Magic are Muggles. With your pedigree, I believe that you will have great achievements in the future."
"I'll lend you your kind words, Professor." Snape smiled and nodded.
Slughorn encouraged him a few more words, and when he saw all the students raising their heads, he stopped talking to Snape.
"Then, let's start our first lesson, Scabies Potion!" Slughorn's wand tapped the chalk lightly, and the chalk flew up directly. He started writing on the blackboard, and soon the Scabies Potion was The recipe is written on the blackboard.
"This is a very simple potion. There are only a few ingredients. There is not much to say about the brewing process. The only thing you need to pay attention to is that before adding the porcupine quills, you must We need to bring down the crucible! So, what are you waiting for? Team up with two people and you can start."
"The medicinal materials are in the medicine cabinet, remember, don't waste them."
The students heard Slughorn's words and started to take action. Some took out the crucible, and some went to get materials. For a while, the professor seemed very lively.
All the students were divided into groups, and only Snape was left alone. However, he didn't care, and went straight to get the materials, and then took out his second-hand cauldron.Although this crucible is a bit old, there are no leaks or cracks. It's just that one of the pot ears has fallen off, which doesn't have much impact.
Slughorn wanted to get Snape a new cauldron, but he refused because he didn't want to owe a favor just because of a cauldron.
First of all, you need to process the materials. First, steam the horned slugs. After the slugs are steamed, boil them in pure water until the slugs change color and then fish them out.
"Clear water is like a spring!"
Snape pointed his wand, and a stream of water came out from the tip of the wand, which quickly reached the scale line of the crucible. Then he touched the bottom of the crucible with the wand, and a flame rose directly under the crucible.
After steaming the horned slug in the cauldron and leaving it aside for the time being, Snape started working on the second material - snake teeth.
The book said that the snake teeth should be crushed in a mortar, but Snape did not do this. In his opinion, there was another way.
He pointed his wand at the quill on the table, and the quill turned into a strange-looking device, a bit like two stones stacked on top of each other. This was the stone mill, an artifact for grinding powder.
However, if you want to use this to grind powder, the snake teeth are still a bit big. Snape thought for a moment, took a knife, and painstakingly cut each snake tooth into several sections. Then he clicked the wand and the stone grinder automatically I started working, and soon the snake teeth were ground into fine powder, which was much finer than pounding it with a mortar.
When the horned slug was steamed, Snape quickly boiled it in water.After steaming, horned slugs are very easy to change color when cooked. If not handled properly, they will be overcooked and part of the horned slugs will be boiled, which will affect the quality of the final finished product.
Therefore, when Snape saw the horned slug changing color slightly, he immediately took it out of the tower. When he put it on the plate, the color of the horned slug had completely changed.
After cleaning the cauldron and adding water again, Snape began to formally brew the scabies potion.
First, add dried nettles and snake tooth powder to cold water. After boiling until the original ingredients are no longer visible, add the horned slugs and increase the flame. Wait until the horned slugs are completely melted in the solution. Remove the crucible from the flame. Take it off and put in the porcupine quills.
After the porcupine quills were added, pearl-like steam emerged from the crucible, followed by a smell like rotten eggs. Snape squinted and looked at the crucible, which was already a reddish-brown color. of medicine.
After settling for a while, Snape opened a potion bottle. With a flick of his wand, the potion automatically flew into the potion bottle. Only when there was an unpleasant-smelling residue left in the pot did Snape stop casting the spell.
"Oh? It seems that you have finished, Mr. Snape?" Slughorn walked behind Snape at some point and looked down at the potion bottle on the table.
"Yes, Professor." Snape nodded, "If there are no mistakes in my operation, it should be completed."
"Pretty perfect." Slughorn picked up the potion bottle, looked at it, and gave this evaluation. Then he looked at Snape and raised his eyebrows. "It seems that I can't keep my reward." Living."
Snape smiled and said nothing.
"Well, gaffes are not a good quality for a professor." Slughorn muttered, then looked at Snape, "You can choose your reward, Mr. Snape. .”
"Elixir, no doubt about it, isn't it?" Snape said without hesitation.
"Ah ha, I knew you wanted this, you little clever guy." Slughorn took out the potion that he had put away from his pocket and placed the bottle of dark gold welfare potion on Snape's desk. , "Then, keep your good luck."
"Thank you." Snape picked up the potion quickly and carefully put it in his pocket.
"I want to remind you, Mr. Snape," Slughorn said, "This potion is a concentrated version. When you use it, you must pay attention to the dosage. I think there is no need for me to remind you, Consequences of overdose of Felixir."
"Okay, Professor, I remember."
Slughorn was already very satisfied, but when he heard Snape had something to add, his eyes lit up and he looked at him expectantly.
"This bottle should be a concentrated version of the elixir!" Snape said with certainty, "The normal elixir should be golden, and only the concentrated version is this dark gold color.
