Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 22 Where are the magical plants?

But there was no answer at this time, so Lu Ke walked downstairs, ready to continue what he should do.

When he turned the corner of the corridor, a ball of fur wrapped around Lu Ke's feet.

He lowered his head with a smile and saw Mrs. Norris.

Now the old cat is already a graceful and luxurious master, and he is no longer that thin and dirty look.

Lu Ke took out a handful of dried fish from his pocket and handed it to Mrs. Loris.

Filch turned around the corner and forced an awkward smile when he saw Lu Ke.

"Good morning, Mr. Filch."

Filch nodded: "Good morning Lu Ke."

Lu Ke handed the remaining dried fish to Filch: "I'm going to find Professor Sprout, so enjoy it."

After saying that, he smiled and left.

Filch was left kneeling down and extending his hand to Mrs. Norris with a flattering look on his face.

After walking out of Hogwarts Castle and walking around to the back of the castle, Lu Ke walked across the dark lawn under the night and went straight to the greenhouse.

Not far away, Lu Ke saw a little light.

He carefully walked to the end of the lawn, and then saw a light inside through the wall of the glass greenhouse.

Going around to the entrance of the greenhouse, Lu Ke found that it was not closed.

"anyone there?"

Lu Ke stood at the door and said something, but no one answered.

He entered carefully.

Magical plants are actually as diverse, complex and dangerous as magical animals. From this point of view, the greenhouse is actually as dangerous as the Forbidden Forest.

But looking at the lights in the greenhouse, Lu Ke always felt that something was wrong.

"Professor Sprout?"

Lu Ke took out the wand that could almost be used as a dagger from his pocket, held it in his hand, and moved forward carefully.

After turning two corners and walking to the light, Lu Ke suddenly heard a voice.

"Student? At this time?"

A short witch with a face full of dirt poked her head out from behind a clump of green plants: "Forget it, can you come over and help me?"

Lu Ke nodded, put away his wand and walked over.

"My name is Lu Ke."

That witch was Professor Sprout. She nodded casually and then handed her hands to Lu Ke.

"Hold its mouth."

In Professor Sprout's hand is a pure black plant. Three branches that look like poisonous snakes branch out from the main trunk. At the top is a long mouth full of fangs. The professor holds a big mouth in each of his left and right hands. , the remaining one rushed towards the professor's hands again and again like an attacking poisonous snake.

But Professor Sprout's movements were very agile, and he always dodged the big mouth in the blink of an eye.

Lu Ke stared at the big mouth, stretched out his hands, and remained motionless.

Then take action instantly.

"good!"

Professor Sprout exclaimed excitedly.

Lu Ke successfully caught the big mouth.

Then the plant in his hand suddenly became quiet, and all the power of struggle disappeared.

"Okay, you can let go now."

Professor Sprout patted the dust on his body, stood up and took a serious look at Lu Ke: "You are a first-year wizard, what are you doing in the greenhouse at this time?"

Lu Ke nodded: "Hello, Professor Sprout, I am Lu Ke, a Slytherin student, and I am a squib."

Professor Sprout was stunned.

"...Hello, Lu Ke."

Lu Ke nodded: "I am studying potions with Professor Snape, and I want to ask you for a medicinal material. Also, there is an herbal medicine class tomorrow, and I want to come over and see where the class is held."

Professor Sprout smiled: "So you come to the greenhouse at this time in the morning to study?"

Lu Ke nodded.

Then Professor Sprout shook his head and walked to the plant that had just been subdued: "Wait a minute while I transplant this trigonella."

While she reached out and pulled up the roots of Sanguangcao from the flowerpot, she said casually: "Do you know what Sanguangcao is, Lu Ke?"

Lu Ke recalled carefully: "At the beginning of Thousand Magic Herbs and Mushrooms, it seemed that there was a mention of magical herbs that can absorb three kinds of light: sunlight, moonlight, and starlight?"

Professor Sprout nodded: "You are very serious in your study. This is the three-light grass. Do you know why I want to transplant it now?"

Lu Ke shook his head.

"After the three-light grass matures, it will die the moment its roots are illuminated by three kinds of light, so it must be transplanted at this time, when there is no starlight, moonlight, or sunlight, and it is the darkest time of the day. "

Lu Ke nodded.

"Sounds like fun."

Professor Sprout smiled: "Yes, it is interesting. Only when you find something interesting will you study it seriously. You are very talented, kid."

Lu Ke smiled. He was used to such comfort. Of course, it still felt good no matter how many times he heard it.

“What can this herb do?”

He looked curiously at Sanguangcao, who had his head drooped and remained motionless.

"Through appropriate methods, it releases the starlight, moonlight, and sunlight it absorbs, three kinds of magical light, which are used in many magic potions."

Lu Ke nodded.

This was definitely a magical herb that opened his eyes. There are always surprises in the magical world.

"Okay, come with me."

After planting the trigonellae and filling in the soil, Professor Sprout clapped his hands and turned around, heading outside the greenhouse.

"follow me."

Lu Ke followed, and the two walked out of the greenhouse, walked around to the other side, and walked into a low room.

It's a small room, but it's bright and comfortable.

Professor Sprout washed his face, then asked Lu Ke to sit down and handed him a cup of dark brown tea.

"There are herbs in it. If I get up too early, I will definitely drink this. Try it, it will taste good."

Professor Sprout smiled all over his face and took a big sip after finishing speaking.

Lu Ke put the cup to his mouth and smelled a spicy taste, but when he drank it, there was no spicy taste at all, only a refreshing sweetness, which was very light, but refreshing.

“It tastes great!”

Lu Ke drank it all in one gulp without ceremony.

Professor Sprout smiled and filled Lu Ke's cup again: "If it tastes good, drink more, but two cups is the most."

Lu Ke drank it all in one gulp again, then put down the cup and took a deep breath.

He found that the breath he exhaled was actually a sweet smell.

"Amazing, right?"

Lu Ke nodded and couldn't help laughing.

Although every professor he has met so far will do their best to help him and are very professional in the courses they are responsible for, only Professor Sprout reminds Lu Ke of the first time he saw the magical world. wonderful feeling.

"You don't have to worry about Herbology classes at all."

Professor Sprout put down his cup and looked at Lu Ke with a smile on his face.
