After all the students' postures were adjusted properly, Kong Nuo continued to give a lecture. He pointed to the Whomping Willow next to him and asked, "Does anyone know what this is?"
Harry and Ron glanced at each other and raised their hands at the same time.Having only been attacked by the Whomping Willow last week, they are all too familiar with this amazing plant.
"Ron, you answer."
"The Whomping Willow! It's fierce! It's fierce! It will attack all creatures that come close to it, whether it's magic props or people or others, all of them will be crushed by its hammer head!"
Hermione showed a gratified expression. It was the first time she saw Harry and Ron rushing to answer questions, and she felt like her child had finally grown up.
"That's right, five points for Gryffindor! Anything else to add? Ron has only partly said more details about the Whomping Willow."
Ron's face was flushed, and it was the first time he had been awarded points for answering questions in class.But when he noticed Hermione's expression, he couldn't help but say:
"Don't look at me that way! If you've ever been attacked by the Whomping Willow, you'll be as impressed as I am!"
"Stebbins, you answer." Kong Nuo named another boy.
Stebbins said: "The sap of Whomping Willow is very precious. It can improve the basic effect of potions, and it is easy to be coveted by wizards."
"It's also because of this that Whomping Willow evolved aggressiveness to ensure that it can live longer."
"However, even though the Whomping Willow is full of aggressiveness, it still can't stop the enthusiasm and desire of the wizards, which has caused the Whomping Willow to become a very rare magical plant."
"That's right. Five points for Hufflepuff." Connor nodded. This was the same as what Professor Sprout told him, and it was a very standard answer.
He saw the eyes of the Weasley twins light up, looking at the Whomping Willow behind him in a treasure-seeing manner, and added:
"The content about Whomping Willow sap is beyond the scope of my lectures. If you are interested in that part, you can ask Professor Snape for advice."
As soon as this sentence was said, the eyes of the Weasley twins instantly dimmed a lot.Snape was different from Filch, and even they didn't dare to be too presumptuous in Snape's class.
Kong Nuo continued: "The Whomping Willow has a high attack frequency, which is very suitable for practice. Next, I will demonstrate how to use the Whomping Willow to practice basic lightness steps."
He calmly approached the Whomping Willow, and just when the students were a little relaxed, the Whomping Willow suddenly attacked.
The originally calm Whomping Willow was as violent as a hungry tiger. It raised its hammer-like branch tip high and smashed it hard at Kong Nuo.
The Whomping Willow is huge in size, with countless hammer-like branches attacking at the same time, it looks huge and extremely scary.
Not only that, but the willow branches were also swinging, beckoning to Kong Nuo like a whip, and immediately raised a large cloud of dust.
If Professor Sprout had been there, he would have immediately noticed the difference in the Whomping Willow.The Whomping Willow now attacks more frequently and more powerfully.
However, Kong Nuo continued to move forward calmly, moving and changing his figure constantly, and even had time to shake away the surrounding dust to ensure that the students could see his movements clearly.
Finally, like a man ready to leave the auditorium after eating and drinking, he slapped his hand on a knot in the trunk of the Whomping Willow.
The Whomping Willow trembled and stopped, and returned to the calm appearance that a plant should have.
"See clearly?" Kong Nuo asked again, returning to the students.
"Uh... just like a drunkard... staggering away?" Lee Jordan hesitated, and he added, "Like a drunk Professor Trelawney?"
Many students couldn't help laughing, this description is really subtle.
The divination professor Trelawney was indeed an alcoholic, and they could occasionally see Trelawney wandering the corridor on the eighth floor with a bottle of sherry in her hand.
Of course, those students who are very good at divination don't think so. They think that Professor Trelawney is actually using alcohol to open his third eye, which is a special talent.
"Very good." Kong Nuo nodded, "Anyone want to try it? Try to see if you can walk through the Whomping Willow like a drunk."
The students shook their heads repeatedly. They had seen the ferocity of the Whomping Willow. If they were hit by the Whomping Willow head-on, God knows how long they would have to lie in the school infirmary.
"Should we try it? I remember there is Potions class tomorrow." Harry was eager to try.
"It seems worth trying..." Ron began to think about it, "If you didn't show up, Snape would have troubled Neville, and it wouldn't affect me... Or would you be injured?"
Ron was telling the truth. Normally, when Snape deducted points, Harry and Ron would deduct points together.
There is no need to change the routine template for deducting points, it is basically this set of rhetoric:
"Mr. Potter! Why don't you turn off the flame first and then put the mouse tail? What we're going to do is a hair erector, not an explosive! Five points from Gryffindor!"
"And Mr. Weasley, if you have time to laugh, why don't you remind Mr. Potter? Five points from Gryffindor!"
"It seems to be a bit difficult?" Kong Nuo raised his eyebrows, and it was another thrilling walk, and he returned to the scar of the Whomping Willow again.
This time he found another scar and patted it lightly.
The Whomping Willow is still attacking, but the attack speed and power are not as fast as before, but it is still thrilling, making people afraid to try it.
"How about this?" Kong Nuo pressed another scar, and the speed of the Whomping Willow slowed down again, almost only one-third of the speed at the beginning.
Since he treated the Whomping Willow last time, he has figured out some ways on the Whomping Willow's rhizome through internal force.
After treatment, there are multiple scars on the trunk of the Whomping Willow. By pressing different scars, the speed and frequency of Whomping Willow attacks can be controlled.
Kong Nuo proposed the reward conditions, "If there is a student from any college who can come to me through the Whomping Willow, I can directly add [-] points to the college he belongs to."
"Is there a limit on the number of people?" Fred asked, raising his hands.
Kong Nuo shook his head, "Of course there is no restriction, but it is recommended not to have too many people. The Whomping Willow's attack is not a single-target attack, but a range attack."
"Just me and Fred! The two of us!" George also raised his hands.
"Come on! Since you are so confident!" Of course, Kong Nuo had no reason to refuse.
The Weasley twins looked at each other, came to the two directions of the Whomping Willow, and began to stretch their muscles and bones, exhaling to adjust their physical condition.
Connor asked, "Are you ready?"
The Weasley twins nodded, "Come on! We're going to pocket fifty cents!"
Without hesitation, they stepped into the Whomping Willow's attack range almost at the same time.
Harry and Ron glanced at each other and raised their hands at the same time.Having only been attacked by the Whomping Willow last week, they are all too familiar with this amazing plant.
