The Soul of Hogwarts Across Worlds

Chapter 199 Magic Plant
One afternoon, no matter how the other little wizards felt, Melda was exhausted and unable to continue.

The dueling club can't be said to be a success, but it can't be called a failure either.

But everyone can feel that yesterday afternoon was too chaotic.

After the little wizard started to practice freely, the confusion intensified countless times.

The entire auditorium was full of little wizards bent over and groping.

They searched for their wands at the feet of the chaotic crowd.

From time to time, there will be a magical scene of human bowling.

A certain little wizard was sent flying, and along the way he would knock down several unlucky ones behind him.

In short, a seemingly farce duel club finally came to an end.

And a new day begins again.

This week is already the second week after Christmas.The Quidditch competition, which was suspended by the school for two months, also officially started this week.

I don't know who arranged the game process.

The first match of the year turned out to be Gryffindor vs. Slytherin again, the duel of the century between these two enemies.

So Harry's good life came to an end again, early in the morning, when it was still dark, he was dragged out of bed by George and Fred who broke through the door.

Dazed Harry started his first training after Christmas.

There is no way, and I don't blame Wood for being cruel, because Quidditch games usually start in October, but this year, due to too many weird things, the game time has been postponed.

Wood didn't even think there would be another Quidditch match this year.

He didn't prepare any tactics all Christmas, and he didn't practice after school started.

Not only the Gryffindor team, but all the Hogwarts teams did not expect the game to start so suddenly.

"Hey! Harry, this way!" Herbology class with Hufflepuff has been in for 3 minutes, and Harry hurried over wearing Quidditch training uniform and broom.

"professor!"

With a broom in one hand and a textbook in the other, Harry stood awkwardly at the door of the greenhouse, looking at Professor Sprout with a guilty conscience.

He really just got off the broom. As soon as the training was over, he rushed to the greenhouse without stopping. He even used the flashing technique, but he was still late.

Professor Sprout didn't bother with Harry because of this trivial matter. She fiddled with the magical plants at hand, with a smile on her face, and said kindly: "Okay, Harry, put the broom over there and lean against it. It’s fine on the flower bed, I can help you look at it, come here quickly!”

"Thank you, Professor." Harry hurriedly placed the Nimbus 2001 on the edge of the flower bed at the entrance of the greenhouse, and trotted all the way with his textbooks in his arms, towards Ron Melda and the others.

"Okay, now we're officially in class!"

The episode between classes did not affect Professor Sprout's mood. She still smiled and said: "Open your textbook, let us learn a brand new magical plant today."

Professor Sprout gave an order, and the sound of flipping books suddenly resounded in the greenhouse.

It is worth noting that the textbook in the hands of the little wizard at this time is not the standard textbook "A Thousand Miraculous Herbs and Fungi" for the second year of Hogwarts.

It was a heavy book called "Magical Plant Illustrated Book", and its title page was printed with the words jointly published by the Ministry of Magic of China.

Obviously, this is an encyclopedia book that introduces various magical plants in Huaguo.

"Hoho! You have never seen such a magical plant. After so many years, you are the luckiest batch of little wizards." Professor Sprout looked extremely excited, and her movements could even be called dancing. The remaining bit of professorial reserve has long been thrown aside by her.

She carefully carried a small potted plant from the flower bed behind her, and placed it solemnly in front of the little wizards.

"Do you know what this is?" Professor Sprout pointed to the small potted plant at hand.His eyes were full of happiness.

The greenhouse fell silent.

This time, even Hermione, whom Snape called Miss Know-It-All, frowned and looked at the magical plant in front of her in doubt. She didn't know what it was.

And even Hermione didn't know about it, let alone other little wizards.

"Professor, this is a doorwort!" Melda took a long time to identify it carefully before recognizing it from the veins of the branch and leaf.

"You should be a seedling!"

Mature gateworts generally have a height of two to three meters and look like a big tree.

"That's good, Melda, five points for Gryffindor. Besides, I'm curious how you know this plant." Professor Sprout first praised Melda's knowledge, and on the other hand, He was curious.

"Oh! During the summer vacation, I went to Chang'an Taixue in Huaguo. Er Chang'an Magic Academy, there are such plants in front of some of their buildings, but they are all mature, two or three meters high."

"Oh! I didn't expect you to have been to Huaguo! That's such a good place!" Professor Sprout, who has been studying magical plants all his life, naturally yearns for Huaguo, which has rich plant varieties.

"Melda is right. This is a gatewort from Huaguo."

"Open your books."

Speaking of which, Professor Sprout led a group of young wizards to carefully identify the little seedling.

The seedlings of the doorgrass are less than a dozen centimeters high. Its veins are wavy, and the flowers are bright purple. The buds that have not yet opened are like long eggs, and the whole is like ears, hanging on the veins.

Fully bloomed flowers have a hollow center shaped like a human mouth.

"This is a very magical magical plant. The wizards of Huaguo will use it as an alarm for the gatekeeper, which is why it is called the gatekeeper grass." Professor Sprout talked eloquently.

"During the day, the door-guard grass will listen quietly in front of the door. At night, when there is nothing to do, it will continue to be silent, so that the owner can sleep peacefully. Once a bad person appears, it will make a loud sound to warn the owner of danger. .”

"And this one is the seedling of the gatewort, which was obtained by Principal Dumbledore from the Huaguo Ministry of Magic on an academic exchange. However, because the growth cycle of the gatewort is very slow, this little grass cannot help at this stage. us.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for that Azkaban fugitive wandering outside to come to Hogwarts.

oh!Of course, he couldn't get in even without the gatekeeper grass. "Professor Sprout realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, and quickly explained: "Our castle is very safe. The Aurors sent by the Ministry of Magic simply underestimated us, and this is also a disrespect for tradition.No Auror has ever been at Hogwarts. "
