Chapter 17 [Getting Away with Something Is an Attitude]
With Malfoy's past, the little wizards became much more obedient in class.
Especially the little snakes in Slytherin, who value honor and don't want to be deducted points on the first day.
You know, Slytherin has won the college cup for seven consecutive years. Last night, the headmaster personally warned all the little snakes - not to offend the professor at will, and not to deduct even one point from Slytherin.
Given the atmosphere in Slytherin, those who cause Slytherin to deduct points will definitely not have an easy time when they return to the dormitory.
Professor Sprout looked at the little wizards and nodded with satisfaction.
The effect of establishing authority is very good, even too good. Malfoy is still a little trembling and standing far away from those biting cabbages.
"Don't be so scared. After a few days, these biting cabbages will be moved to a larger greenhouse. After all, this is the content of study for senior grades." Professor Sprout smiled.
She looked at Malfoy, and then said to the little wizard: "Don't worry, I promise not to let you see it when the next class starts."
In a few days, the freshmen of the four colleges will have taken the Herbology class. After serving as a warning, these biting cabbages will be useless and of course they will be moved to their original greenhouse.
"Okay, then we will officially start the class." Professor Sprout stretched out her hand, and a book appeared in her hand as if it was an apparition.
This magical application of Apparition made Rock's eyes light up.
"What we want to learn today is - Dietary Plant, do any little wizards know what Dietary Plant is?"
Hermione immediately raised her hand high, but Professor Sprout obviously had other plans.
"Mr. Malfoy?"
Malfoy immediately stood up and said: "Dietary Plant is a plant with magical properties. It can be used to make potions and also has a strong healing effect."
Professor Sprout nodded slightly.
"The answer is correct, Slytherin gets five points!"
"Thank you, Professor Sprout! Thank you!" Malfoy said excitedly, his face even flushed with anger.
Just now, he was still somewhat resentful of the teacher for deducting points from Slytherin, but now he immediately became very energetic and determined to earn back all the lost points in the Herbology class.
The points were added and subtracted, which made Rock feel a little emotional. Professor Sprout simply played Malfoy in the palm of his hand.
These experienced professors really have a good grasp of dealing with young wizards.
Professor Sprout obviously has to do more than that, she did not ignore Hermione.
An excellent teacher will not discourage the enthusiasm of any child, not to mention that this is the first class, and it is particularly important to leave a first impression on students.
Professor Sprout looked at the girl in front of him with her arms raised high.
After Malfoy answered, he still raised his hand, presumably he must know more about white fresh water.
I remember she was from Ravenclaw...
"Miss Hermione Granger!" Professor Sprout accurately said the name he had memorized in advance, "Do you have anything to add?"
"Of course!" Hermione immediately began to show off her reading: "Dianxian essence can be extracted from Dianxian. This healing medicine can almost heal cuts, lacerations and other external injuries immediately, and even leave no scars if used in time."
Rock nodded secretly. Dianxian essence is indeed a rare healing medicine in the magic world.
In the original book, Ron split when he escaped from the Ministry of Magic by "Apparition", and he was treated with Dianxian essence.
The Apparition spell is a displacement spell.
This spell is very dangerous. Wizards with insufficient skills often experience "split" when using this spell - that is, only part of the body moves, and the other half remains in place.
But even if a person is split in half, in theory, as long as you act quickly, Dianxian essence can still heal you back, which shows how terrifying Dianxian essence is, and it can be called the magic bean in the magic world.
However, we should not be too arrogant because of the white fresh essence. Rock has seen it in the book - many wizards who practiced Apparition and Apparition thought that they were not afraid of accidents because of the white fresh essence, but they still got into trouble in the end.
The reason is also very simple. The magic level is too poor and the body can't be put together.
As for the magic level, you can see it by comparing it with the professors of Hogwarts.
Professor Sprout just made the book Apparate directly from the table in the distance into his hand.
This spell level is so beautiful and scary.
No wonder Professor Sprout in the original book looked down on Lockhart, a fake, and even said that he would feel uncomfortable staying next to Lockhart.
There is no way, the level is too different.
What level? Just like me, a professor?
...
In the classroom.
Hermione was still recounting the knowledge she had read: "Not only that, the leaves of Dictamnus are also one of the main ingredients for making stimulant potions."
This should be from Arsene Jigg's "Magic Pharmacy and Potion"...
Rock quickly thought of the content of this book in his mind.
Hermione: "At the same time, the mixture of Dictamnus and silver powder can also be used to treat werewolf bites."
This time it was Quentin Trimble's "Dark Magic Self-Defense Guide", Rock thought.
Hermione's voice echoed in the herb room. Some of the content was previewed by the little wizards in advance, but more of it was something they had not yet learned.
Even the Slytherin students looked at Hermione with shock in their eyes. They rarely looked at a Muggle-born wizard like this.
"Great! Miss Granger!" Professor Sprout said in surprise: "I want to give Ravenclaw ten points!"
Professor Sprout was not stingy with her praise, and her knowledge of herbology was extremely rich.
In the following explanation, Sprout would also use real objects as teaching references, and it was still very easy to take her class.
After all, even Neville could be encouraged to be confident in the herbology class, so other people would naturally not feel pressured to learn.
This does not refer to the pressure of learning, but the personal style of the teacher. For example, Snape and Professor McGonagall are both strict types, and they are full of pressure when they take classes.
It is actually difficult to evaluate the talent of students in school, because sometimes whether you like the teacher of this subject will affect your grades.
At least the professor of herbology is quite likable, and almost most students can remember the knowledge points she teaches.
In this way, in a cheerful learning atmosphere, the first teaching of herbology ended.
The students also said goodbye to the teacher and walked out of the greenhouse.
But Rock walked towards Professor Sprout - he wanted to ask the teacher for some plant seeds.
Professor Sprout was also very impressed by Rock. There was almost nothing that this kid couldn't answer when she asked him questions in class.
She envied Flitwick a little. Ravenclaw had two very good little wizards this year. If only they could have entered Hufflepuff.
"What do you want to talk to me about, Mr. Anderson?" Sprout asked gently.
Rock pointed to the white fresh water lily used in class and said, "Teacher, I want to grow some white fresh water lily myself."
"Of course, but do you know how to grow white fresh water lily?" Sprout wanted to test Rock again.
"White fresh water lily has strong vitality and can be grown in pots of any size." Rock paused for a moment and continued to add, "It is very suitable for students who are learning to grow plants for the first time."
The professor was completely relieved, and then gave Rock some white fresh water lily seeds and a beautiful pot.
And told Rock that if he didn't understand anything during the cultivation process, he could ask her at any time.
Sprout was actually very happy. There were not many students who were willing to fiddle with flowers and plants in private.
Usually, only some students who are very interested in herbology would want to do this.
Unexpectedly, this child has developed a strong interest in herbology as soon as he entered school.
Professor Sprout was very pleased and felt that he had made another big step forward in the path of teaching and educating people.
Rock was also very happy. It costs money to buy seeds outside, and this wave is considered to be a wool from the school.
