The Extraordinary Apothecary at Hogwarts

The basic introductory form of Occlumency is to empty the mind.

The most superficial effect is to prevent others from feeling your immediate emotions and thoughts.

In fact, on this basis, it is completely possible to package all memories and sink them into the bottom of the subconscious without distinction, and then find and strengthen the inherent barrier between the subconscious and the conscious, and only show a blank to the outside.

Then abandon the ability to perceive emotions in the brain, otherwise, once subjected to external stimuli and guidance, emotions will be easily exploited by the Legilimency, becoming the breakthrough point of the barrier, and further shaped into a fast channel to the subconscious.

Occlumency users need to gather a lot of willpower, and must have a highly introverted and self-disciplined way of thinking in order to control their thoughts like a marionette that can be manipulated.

Well, it was hard for Harry to learn that. He had the willpower to resist the Imperius Curse, but he always faced his emotions honestly and boldly, never trying to suppress them.

It does not meet the study conditions.

Sometimes it doesn't make sense, and the harder you work, the more painful it will be. So one teacher suffers from myocardial infarction, and the other learns to be aggrieved and collapses. After torturing each other, there is no progress in the end.

Fortunately, Sissy doesn't belong to that type, and in order to improve her learning efficiency, she has already had the experience of self-training to enter the state of flow—that is a method of mind control belonging to Muggles.

She is not a novice when it comes to controlling her own brain.

Simply learning to empty your mind is not enough.

What Dumbledore would want was the information she had, not the empty head.

To cope with such a need requires practice at least to the second stage - blocking only specific thoughts and memories.

As for the third or even higher stage, that is, to create the illusion that "Occlumency has never been used at all" after sealing part of the memory, and to tamper with the memory to show the intruder a picture woven with lies.

It is not necessary for the time being, and it is almost impossible to do it with only book guidance.

Before leaving, Sissy returned to the original place together with the two books she had placed on display. On the way back to the exit, she caught a glimpse of a copy of "The Influence of Moon Phases and Astrology on the Growth of Herbs", and took it back along the way.

His hands are empty, and his legs are unwilling to step out of the door as if his soul has been shot out of his body.

Now that everyone has come to the library, it would be more awkward than going to the kitchen without eating if you leave without some books!

That night, Sissy finished other arrangements early and got into bed, slowed down her breathing as described in the book, and carefully experienced herself in a silent state.

Slowing down like Juan's thoughts were blocked, slowly dripping down the imaginary eaves, and solidified into ice the moment before dripping.

After clearing your mind, you will have a night without dreams, but the effect is completely different from the effect of drinking dreamless sleep potion.

Sleeping pills can really help people get a baby-like deep sleep, using Occlumency...

After Qianxi raised her eyelids, she only had one feeling——I'm so tired!

I kept my mind empty throughout the night and didn't think about anything, but remained alert and alert, ready to quickly suppress any thoughts that might arise, and even sleeping became a task that needed to be completed.

Sleeping until the usual time to get up, the body regained its vitality, but the head insisted on being on duty all night, and the neurons were exhausted and paralyzed into poached eggs!

"Libo, come here, okay?" Sissy said in a soft and weary voice, raised her hand to beckon to Bai Tuanzi who was resting on the shelf, then smiled, narrowed her eyes and opened her arms, "Come here and let me hug you." hug."

Without moving his body, Libo first turned his head around, opened his closed left eye, flapped his wings and landed on the side of the pillow a few times, a piece of pure white down flew out with the flapping of the wings, and happened to be stuck on Sissy's face. Mouth.

Sissy let the feathers stay on her face, anyway, she will get it when she hugs and rubs.

The warm and soft cotton candy head was obediently and consciously arched into his arms.

Sissy stroked along the direction of feather growth, and met those golden eyes, "Libo, when you sleep, you keep one eye open and the other closed to keep alert. Our book refers to this kind of semi-consciousness." sleep pattern is called hemibrain sleep."

"Having to evolve such skills in order to survive in the wild is a very difficult thing from a human point of view, but you have long been used to it, right? Then, after I practice more, I will definitely be able to adapt. "

Sissy rubbed her face against the soft white feathers on his chest, and her tired brain seemed to be healed by the touch of the soft compress soon.

Well, it's better to be your own owl, rub and hug her, and let her do whatever she wants.

Sissy calculated the progress and made time adjustments for similar daily schedules.

Those who are closest to the deadline naturally need to be arranged first.

When she walked through the passage in front of the oil painting in the kitchen again, a familiar small figure quickly passed by.

"Hi, Phillips!" Sissy recognized at a glance, stopped and waved.

It seems that I haven't chatted with him for a long time. I only heard from Hagrid that Phillips will help take care of docile animals (according to the classification standard of normal wizards, not Hagrid's).

There are relatively few classes with Hufflepuff, and she just doesn't have to go to the flying class. In the potion class, the two colleges are separated and have no intersection. Moreover, she occasionally goes to the first-year class now, not to learn Making those medicines that have been done long ago is just a temporary tool.

If it was up to her to choose, she would just want to skip the class next door, memorize two or three pages of rune vocabulary, or take care of the medicinal materials that may be used recently.

"Hi." Phillips murmured in reply with his head lowered, his attention was completely focused on the small notebook in his hand, and everything else was blurred.

Huh?Is he working on something very important?

It seemed that the two foreign students who couldn't go back for the holidays had a fulfilling life during this period.

Maybe it's because of the holidays. These days, Professor Snape knows that the small experiment of improving Sissy's glasses will not last long, but he still acquiesced in her abnormal behavior and never asked.

Until the birthday, Fred and George were finally able to escape from Sissy's clutches.

Sissy coiled up her fluffy ball hair, combed the broken hair on her forehead and temples, and then chose a brand new long silk scarf as a headband.

The robin egg blue background is decorated with silver and white key patterns, and the silk scarf is wrapped around the bun for a week, leaving two small tails with a sense of drape, which are smart and cute when walking.

"Professor, do you remember what day it is?" Sissy put her hands behind her back, smiling sweetly as if the two dimples on her cheeks were filled with fruit juice.

Snape frowned and said casually, "The penultimate day before school starts."

That's right, the leisurely and clean atmosphere is coming to an end, thinking about facing those troublemakers every day makes me very irritable, especially the students recruited by a certain most hated college, in addition to those who talk back and show off, there are actually Those who love to blow up classrooms!
