Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 2750 Firebird Land (58)
When Albus was young, he had traveled to Cairo to take part in an alchemy competition, but he didn't go just for the competition.
Pomona looked through the notes he had left, and one day when he was wandering around the paint market in Cairo, he found dragon's blood for sale, even though the market was visited by Muggles.
Vendors will brag to customers how this bottle of blood is related to stories between saints, princes, princesses, and giant beasts. This is nothing more than trying to raise prices, and customers are well aware of the hawker's tricks, not every day. Each bottle is filled with "dragon's blood".
Maybe it was to prove that he knew the goods, or because he was young and energetic, Dumbledore also bought a bottle, but he was fooled. Since then, he has become interested in studying dragon blood.
Slughorn once used dragon's blood in Muggle homes to fake the illusion of being attacked, because dragon's blood, like wizard's blood, has residual magic power, but Muggle blood does not.
People have always used dragon blood for potions. After all, dragons are powerful creatures, so their blood should also have powerful curative effects. However, Albus discovered that dragon blood can be used to clean the stove. , as a cleaner to remove stains, because he did that when he was a young man doing housework.
When the twelve treatises on dragon's blood were first published, if it weren't for the fact that he was the hero who defeated Gellert Grindelwald, people almost thought the treatise was a joke.
The ashes in the hearth are mainly oil and plant ash, and dragon blood can dissolve them. Pomona used this characteristic of dragon blood to make the potion needed for the maze.
Although they are all fire dragons, the characteristics of Welsh Green Dragon, Hungarian Horntail, Chinese Fireball and Swiss Short-nosed Dragon's Blood are different. Especially in terms of spiritual potions, Chinese Fireball is better than other dragons.
Fei Liwei believes that the animals attached to Fiendfyre do not really exist, but the consciousness that appears based on the imagination of the caster.
If you observe the ghosts in Hogwarts carefully, you will find that although they are floating, they are not like the "dragon" in the cemetery of Père Lachaise. After it was trapped, it immediately flew upwards, and Nicolumay commanded the purification fire to prevent the "dragon" from continuing to rise.
This is also a major characteristic of the Philosopher's Stone, which can only restore "complete life" to souls bound by the earth. Nicholas could cast spells and feel pain, and his body would not pass through walls like a ghost, but his need for food was not as urgent as that of a living person, and he would feel a strong hunger. When eating, it's not like a ghost who can't taste anything, but can't feel "delicious".
Albus is just addicted to sweets, his appetite is not as good as Ron's, as long as he sees Ron eating, he knows that this dish must be delicious.
Food can bring happiness. If eating does not feel happiness, but is just a task that needs to be repeated constantly, then many people will probably forget to eat like they forget to do their homework, and feel comfortable after eating and drinking.
A hand covered her eyes.
"Guess who I am?" someone behind her said in a low voice.
Pomona thought he was naive. Who else would there be in this place but the two of them?
"Severus," she said gruffly, "I'm reading, take your hands away!"
As expected, he let go of his hand, but he didn't give up disturbing her reading. He moved his big nose to her neck and sniffed carefully.
"What are you going to eat later?"
She felt that what he wanted to ask was not what he "really" ate.
After coming out of the movie theater that day, she went to the store next door called Victoria's Secret on a whim, and at the instigation of the clerk, she bought a few sets of "clothes".
There is a proverb that the full stomach loathes the honeycomb, and the full stomach loathes the honeycomb. People who are full will not be as hungry as when they are hungry.
"I want to eat outside." She whispered, "I want to go shopping after dinner."
"You want to go shopping?" he said flatly.
"No, you can go with me to choose the 'candy' you like in the store."
He struggled for a while, and finally said, "I prefer to keep the surprises."
"So you're not going to hang out with me?" Pomona asked.
"Go, but I'll wait for you outside the shop."
She was quite satisfied with this compromise plan. She put down her book and was about to stand up and get ready to go out when he suddenly kissed her.
Since they lived in seclusion, they didn't need to meet secretly like before, but instead, something was missing. It is like removing the heated alcohol lamp during a chemical experiment, and the reaction is not so violent.
Sugar softens when heated and turns into something like syrup, and the bat-blood "soup" that sits at Honeydukes' door gives the candy that flavor, but it's not whole like a bloody lollipop, Just eat the syrup on the surface, and the candy will return to its original taste. It's hard to imagine that Arianna likes this flavor the most. She thought Arianna would prefer to eat the kind of candy that feels harmless.
Pomona was either under the spell of soft legs, or like heated sugar, he felt that he was about to stand upright, and he supported Severus in order to stand still. There were strong muscles under the clothes, and he was not like when he was young So skinny.
After the kiss was over, they rubbed their ears together for a while, enjoying the wonderful experience brought by "chemistry".
The lifespan of magical creatures is much longer than that of humans, but Pomona himself likes gourmet magic and sleeping, and Felix likes to play music and compose music. These teachers are all surpassed by "rising stars".
It's just that the prime of life of human beings is very short, and she is very afraid that he will be gray-haired, but she will still look like this now. The last time they went out like this, people thought they were father and daughter, although Severus looked serious and older than he was.
"Does it hurt?" he asked in a low voice.
"It's like being stabbed by a spur." She said softly, "It hurts a bit, but it doesn't feel painful, it's more like excitement."
He laughed.
"Why didn't I know you could talk like that?"
'Because that's because you're not the principal. '
she whispered in her heart.
"Go get ready." He let go of his arms around her waist.
When his back disappeared through the door, she felt that he hadn't lost interest, but was looking forward to a "big meal", and she better not screw it up.
She looked at the book on the table with nostalgia, but she still wanted to read it.
"Let's read it when we come back." She said softly, and left the study.
==================================================== =============
The young man's showmanship stole the crowd away from Duboer, and no one was to blame for his recklessness and faux pas.
Paracelsus is actually a pseudonym, meaning "towards Celsus," the ancient Roman author of a medical encyclopedia. In addition to his achievements in toxicology, the Swiss alchemist Theobas von Hohenheim also made other contributions in other fields. For example, he invented the word "alcohol" and named the element zinc.
Lavoisier also named oxygen and hydrogen elements. Many years ago, humans knew that water vapor and ice are transformed from liquid water, but no one analyzed the critical point.
For example, the boiling temperature of water in high-altitude areas is lower than that in low-altitude areas. At 80 degrees Celsius, high-altitude areas will boil, but low-altitude areas will not, so there is a pressure-temperature curve.
Due to the invention of the steam engine, people became interested in the behavior of fluids under high temperature and pressure. Before reaching the boundary of the curve, water is still water. After passing the critical point, that is, at 22 MPa, when heated to 374 degrees, water and gas The difference between them no longer exists, that is to say, a state like water but not water is formed.
Lavoisier proved that this supercritical gas and steam are the same thing, or in other words, when someone opens the valve of the steam engine, there will be a burst of high-temperature steam mixed with liquid. The water is not formed by condensation of steam with water. Even the "water vapor" that people see is small water droplets after steam condensation, similar to fog and clouds, and the fluid in this state has extremely strong oxidizing properties.
But such temperatures and pressures were unattainable with 18th-century technology. Lavoisier passed water vapor through a red-hot iron pipe. Originally, iron pipes and water vapor reacted very slowly at room temperature, and what was produced was reddish-brown ferric oxide called rust. Lavoisier's experiment obtained black iron ferric oxide in addition to hydrogen and oxygen.
At this time, the phlogiston theory was still the mainstream, but there were still people like Boyle who believed that the "element" should be the simplest and primitive substance, a definite, real, and perceivable object. Affected by it, Wassi listed the table of chemical elements for the first time, and divided 33 substances into gases, metals, nonmetals and metal oxides. The gases include light, heat, and hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen discovered and named by Lavoisier himself.
But these are not the keys that separate chemistry from alchemy.
Priestley, a member of the British Moonlight Society, once went to Paris to discuss "air that eliminates phlogiston". Both the Moonlight Society as a representative of the Industrial Revolution and Lavoisier as a taxpayer and nobleman have enough money. Measuring equipment is very complex and expensive to design, and even to use it requires specialized personnel to be trained.
A common language, metrics, and terminology were required during the manipulation and recording of data, as well as during the sharing of material between the Moonlight Society and researchers in Europe, and the old words and terminology from Alchemy became impossible.
Therefore, formulating a new, clear and unambiguous "scientific language" has become the direction of their generation's efforts.
This new set of general standards has been used into the 21st century, as if there is no hatred or war, and a set of international natural philosophers' organizations have been formed. In this system, fire is not an element, not even a substance. Pomona's idea that there are animal spirits attached to Fiendfire to form "quasi-life" is completely delusional.
Felix didn't say it clearly, but since he supports the conscious body, he doesn't support Pomona's theory.
Severus didn't say it clearly, but he supported the theory of elements, and believed that the spirit of the gods was a kind of water magic, and the animal spirit was possessed by the water element, so he was in the same group as Pomona.
Pomona's talent is not like Neville's ability to communicate directly with plants, she just can sense what they need. After strengthening the connection with the "belly button of the forest" through the black vine water, this feeling is more acute. When most people see a vegetable, they don't think it is a "conscious" living body like a cat.
Neville's experiment on whether plants are conscious is continuing. He chose the mimosa as the target. Although the plant has no eyes or nose, it also responds to temperature, humidity, and light. The lotus seeds that have been sleeping for thousands of years can also germinate, but it does not. Encounter the right environment.
Opponents argue that plants do not have nervous systems and do not possess consciousness like animals.
Before Paracelsus, only sulfur and mercury were the sacred elements of alchemy. After Paracelsus added salt, there were three sacred elements, corresponding to the human spirit, soul and body, and introduced the "Trinity". The human body is both the microcosm and the microcosm of the macrocosm. The study of the human body helps to understand the macrocosm, find the commonality among them, and build the harmony between man, nature and the Creator.
She poured the dream potion into the Goblet of Fire, and also made the tinder bush in the maze "drink" the dream potion. If a person is awake, he will always meditate on the consequences of certain things. When he is asleep, his body will not be affected by the will Control, but the huge subconscious hidden under the surface of the sea. But she couldn't be sure whether this consciousness was produced by the Goblet of Fire itself, or it came from "outside", such as gods, devils and other existences in the invisible world.
The Philosopher's Stone, the Panacea, and the Elixir of Life together form a triangle. The move to protect Paris is great, but is it necessary to protect Paris full of usury imperialists?
Every night, the lights of the Moulin Rouge will be lit, and the well-dressed "gentlemen" will go to see the Cancan dancers with a lot of money. What is the meaning of eternal life for these people who are tired of living with cynical indulgence and luxury, and the recession after the First World War?
That time was a good time for vampires. The vampires on the big screen made the audience feel uneasy and fearful, but also had exciting and exciting associations. According to the needs of the plot, the vampires gradually became mysterious, handsome, with young bodies, able to speak Beautiful lines, and more emotional scenes.
They have become lonely monsters in the dark night, luring countless hearts longing to warm them, and of course, attracting money in the pockets of many rich people who want to become young again.
As early as 1749, the wizarding world warned vampires to abide by the International Law of Secrecy, but just like the prodigal son in the story of the prodigal son, why should he obey and give up his freedom when he has money and can enjoy his freedom outside?
The lack of information, coupled with mutual "secrets" among Muggles, was not debunked until around the 1980s, when Muggles abandoned them, and vampires turned to the wizarding world to find "equality".
The father would be open to the prodigal son, not the rest of the family, but vampires were better off than werewolves.
Not every miasma turns into a storm, and many times they dissipate; but storms do come.
A war "for the good of the many" is a sure sign that the nation is on the verge of rebellion and commotion. If the poverty and bankruptcy of the upper class combine with the hunger and cold of the lower class, great danger is at hand. For rebellions caused by starvation are the worst.
Hunger makes a man look for food like an animal, and ambition is like yellow bile, which, as a humour, makes a man active, earnest, quick, and active, when it is not hindered. In some cases, it is necessary to appoint ambitious people. In war, good commanders must be appointed, however ambitious they may be. Their credit makes up for everything. Appointing an unambitious soldier is like ripping off his spurs.
But those who use ambition will bring great danger if they are not careful. Fenrir is like a dog in front of Voldemort, but secretly plans to form a world ruled by werewolves.
The movie she watched that day was "The Godfather". There is a line that goes like this:
A soft heart without boundaries will only make the other party gain an inch; kindness without principle will only let the other party do whatever they want.
If possible, Pomona would like Harry to see the show too, since he is Teddy Lupine's godfather after all.
The godfather allowed people without blood relationship to have a relationship close to kinship, and it was also different from the adoptive father-son relationship between Caesar and Octavian. The establishment of this relationship was established under the witness of non-secular laws.
This is convenient, there is just one problem.
Georgiana watched as her guardian Edgeworth, Birmingham's drunks not only destroyed the library, they also ransacked the homes and farms of "heretics".
Theories are sometimes just theories. When Ron drank poisonous mead, Slughorn was helpless, or Harry thought of the sheep dung stone in a hurry.
Grindelwald is luckier than Crabbe in that Père Lachaise Cemetery can apparate. If Draco Malfoy doesn't panic and think about it, or if he is lucky, the fire doesn't burn to the location where the disappearing cabinet is, and he You can also come to Bojinbok through the disappearing cabinet with Crabbe and Goyle.
But in such a big room of responsiveness, how can a cabinet be so easy to find?
It's easy to say, but in practice? The fire is burning, how can there be so much time to find it slowly?
Georgiana looked at the young violinist. In some people's eyes, high positions are to them what the sea is to sailors. This is their great adventure, full of unpredictable tension and excitement. They felt that this was the avenue to an ultimate glorious destiny.
I don't know if they have thought about it, maybe they will unfortunately fall into the water halfway and be buried in the belly of the fish. Even the Muggle sailors who were drawn to Azkaban had no peace after death.
"Tell me about General Bessier, how much do you know about him?" Georgiana asked Luderer.
Luderer leaned close to her ear and whispered in the devil's trill.
