NOVEL WEB Chapter 306
Chapter 306: Vicious Blood Grapes.
There are not many students who like to stay in the greenhouse. Those who can stay are those who are very interested in herbal medicine. Leonard passed by the greenhouse window and saw many students surrounding Professor Sprout.
Except for a few unfamiliar students, Leonard saw Neville who was still in the greenhouse watching Professor Sproud take care of the magical plants.
Leonard pushed open the greenhouse door, and the wind chime-like plants hanging on the door made a crisp sound.
”Oh, Leonard, you’re here.”
Professor Sprout raised his head when he heard the voice coming from the door and showed a kind smile to Leonard.
”Sit down for a while while I finish processing these plants.”
At this time, she was pruning the leaves of the mandrake. This is a year-round topic for the second grade this year. Everything from planting, cultivation to usage directions is covered. The mandrake is full of treasures. In addition to its own aggressiveness, Mandrake rhizomes can be used to brew potions used to lift powerful petrification spells. Its leaves are an important material for the Animagus Transformation Curse and are also one of the ingredients for many potions. At this time, Sproul Professor De pruned these leaves to collect materials for Potions Professor Snape and the school hospital doctor Madam Pomfrey.
”Come on, children, look carefully at what you need to pay attention to when pruning the mandrake.”
Professor Sprout shouted and asked the students around to focus.
This work of pruning is not just about cutting a few pieces. Leaves are enough. The pruner must accurately judge the branches and leaves that need to be cut off, and the parts of the plant that will not be affected after cutting.
Planting mandrake is mainly for its rhizomes. If you only plant a few leaves, it will be damaged. The health of the overall plant is a bit lost.
The students around him looked carefully, but Leonard just glanced at it and lost interest.
Pruning magic plants is a little more difficult than pruning ordinary plants, because the pruner not only has to judge the plant The biological structure of the plant also needs to consider the flow of magic power.
For skilled professional herbalists, their experience is enough for them to judge the flow of magic power of plants through the growth of the plants.
But this is still a problem for students. It’s very difficult.
But Leonard is not an ordinary student. Not to mention his ability to see through the flow of magic power, just the power of communicating with plants can let the plants tell themselves where to cut and where not to cut.
Professor Sprout His movements were very fast, and in a short while he cut out a small basket of mandrake branches and leaves.
”Okay kids, that’s it for today’s extracurricular learning. Let’s go back quickly.”
Professor Sprout straightened up, packed up the branches and leaves of the mandrake, and began to drive away the students.
The students were a little regretful, but they all left obediently.
Neville hesitated for a long time and walked to���Said in front of Leonard
”Will Leonard go with him?”
”No, Professor Sprout has something to do with me.”
Leonard said
”You go first”
”Oh well.”
Neville nodded, looking a little envious.
He was not a fool. Leonard must have been called over by the professor at this time, and Professor Sprout must have driven everyone away at this time to give Leonard a chance. Dekai Xiaozao.
Regarding this matter, Neville did not have any dissatisfaction because he knew that Leonard’s grades in herbal medicine classes had always been very good. He heard that Leonard’s perfo
rmance in the class was also very good and he even got the professor’s permission not to write. Homework.
Now the relationship between Leonard and Professor Sprout is a bit like the teacher and student who had a closer relationship in the past. This is something you can’t envy, because Leonard’s talent is there.
And I heard that Leonard went to school Neville has been helping out in Professor Sprout’s greenhouse every weekend for the school year. Neville also had this idea, but he didn’t implement it because he was worried that others would say he was imitating Leonard. So
Neville was not jealous of Leonard at all. De, because he knew that Leonard had given so much, he was just thinking about when Zi San would get the attention and attention of the professor like Leonard did?
Neville left disappointed, and Leonard didn’t care about Neville’s loss., in his opinion, this is not worth paying attention to. It is better to pay attention to what Professor Sprout wants to do with him.
”professor.”
Wait until all the students in the greenhouse were gone! Leonard then walked up to Professor Sprout
”Are you looking for me?”
”��Wrong, how did the kids spend their vacation?”
Professor Sprout said in greeting.
”Well······not bad.”
Leonard said.
If you exclude the killing of four members of the secret organization, this holiday was quite enjoyable.
”That’s fine, but I don’t want you to forget everything you learned during this vacation.”
Professor Sprout put down the processed mandrake branches and leaves and wiped his hands.
”Do you still remember the agreement between us?”
”Agreement·····”
Leonard was stunned for a moment and nodded.
”Are you saying that you should read the”Illustrated Catalog of Dangerous Plants in Europe” and choose one to learn about?”
”That’s right, it seems you didn’t forget about our agreement.”
Professor Sprout said cheerfully
”You must have read a lot of content, right? how do you feel?”
”It’s interesting and the plants on it feel magical.”
Leonard said
”So what plant did you choose to learn about? asked Professor Sprout
”I picked blood grapes.”
Leonard said
”I think it’s very distinctive”
”Blood grapes?”
Professor Sprout was a little surprised.
”This is a very dangerous plant and can easily kill people if not handled properly.”
”There should be few plants in that book that are not dangerous.”
Leonard spread his hands
”Blood grapes are just the worse kind among them.”
Compared to other magical plants, the blood grape is even more bad than the parasitic pod Leonard obtained. It will take root on the victim and parasitize the host through the growing roots.
Once the blood grape is damaged, the host will feel the same, as if a part of his body has been hit.
And······It is the pain of a severe injury to a very delicate part. According to the content in the book, it is probably equivalent to suffering a severe injury on Kuner. Even if you protect the blood grape well, it will absorb your flesh and blood, grow and eventually bear fruit.
This fruit is extremely attractive to magical animals, and the smell it emits can even be smelled by magical animals twenty miles away and attract them.
Therefore, the unlucky ones who are parasitized by blood grapes and are not dealt with will either die from excessive blood loss or be torn apart by magical animals. Then the blood grapes will take advantage of the situation and parasitize the seeds on the bodies of magical animals.
If the parasite of blood grapes could not be eliminated by drinking a large amount of high-quality wine, I am afraid that this plant would have been artificially exterminated by wizards..
