Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2649 Wind and Flowers (28)

In the understanding of medieval alchemists, the sun, like the moon, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Mars, and Saturn, are planets that revolve around the earth. They are made of gold, silver, mercury, copper, tin, iron, and lead respectively. These seven metals represent, but this is not absolute, it also depends on the encryption language of the alchemist and the context at that time.

  Gold is considered a perfect metal, and mercury dissolves it. Generally speaking, mercury represents Hermes, the **** of alchemy, which leads to the idea of ​​"Hermes alchemy", that is, dissolution and solidification, which are two of the "Hermes alchemy". opposite. The Muggle chemistry mentioned by Arif is the "external Virgo", which belongs to the sixth zodiac sign, and the collective subconscious on the other hand is the "internal Pisces", which is located in the twelfth zodiac sign.

   Of course, there is not only Hermes alchemy in this world, but almost all of the people in the venue today are “Hermes philosophers”, except for Pomona, an outlier who has dabbled in herbal alchemy.

The purpose of philosop's stone is not to make gold, that is just a process at best, the real ideal of a Hermetic philosopher should be far above the material level, although for a long time, many alchemists Abandoned the study of the inner world, and focused on the discovery of the "outer world", enigmatic in combination and combination.

   Virgo has a pursuit of perfection, and gold is a perfect metal; Pisces loves to dream, and many worldly things Pisces simply ignore.

Of course, some people will say that horoscope divination is a hellish superstition. While the development of the "outer world" accelerates, the research that symbolizes the "inner mind" is suppressed and only continues to exist in the form of "superstition, fantasy and daydreaming" on.

However, at the beginning of the 20th century, the situation began to change. Freud, Jung and others discovered the "subconscious mind" and analyzed dreams, which liberated the "virgin" moral concept and began to focus on consciousness and desire. , which can be understood as Freud's "dissolving" the materialization "solidification" brought to alchemy by the scientific ideas produced since the seventeenth century.

The    full moon is the best time to pick the sapgrass, a species of Sophora spp., its close relative can be used to treat dysentery.

   But just like trees also have regular trees and wand trees, only a few in this weed have magic powers. The werewolf will transform during the full moon, and the liquid grass picked during the full moon can also be used to "dissolve" the "solidified" body, making the body changeable and sexual.

Why does    have to be a full moon? In fact, the transformation of a werewolf does not have to be on the day of the full moon, and the full moon is also seen and illuminated by the moon.

  The moon, like gold, cannot emit light by itself, but reflects light, but its properties are different from gold. Unfortunately, Pomona has not done any research on the relative growth of magical plants and the properties of magic.

   Ariff's trouble with Severus is that he's been trying to convince Severus to "accept" Muggle chemistry a lot like Potions.

Although Severus was very creative when he satirized people, he was really not an expert in this area. The only thing he could do was to refuse to meet Arif. Apart from not going to the cafeteria to eat, he would not allow Arif to set foot there again. His potions classroom.

   After the breakfast meeting, Severus completed the steps to configure the potion that needed to be kept secret, and the next step was the configuration of the potion that could be made public. He completed the configuration of the wolf-binding juice under the watch of many people.

Many people have the habit of recognizing the bed. They can't fall asleep in a strange place. They will feel uncomfortable when they put on new clothes and shoes, and even affect their performance. Pomona is actually very nervous, although she knows that he is not the first. Boil this potion once.

   The whole process lasted for one day. More than 20 medicinal materials were placed on the long experimental table, like a small exhibition, and they were all added to the potion one by one.

  Severus did all the work in the process of making the medicine, including the preparation of the herbs. Thanks to his years of teaching, he was skilled enough to do everything by himself without an assistant.

This has attracted the admiration of some potion masters. Almost all of them have assistants to help them, just like restaurant chefs. They have also been apprentices themselves, responsible for cutting vegetables, cooking soup, side dishes, etc., until a certain stage. In charge of seasoning, the chef himself does the least work. Snape could only rely on the means of confinement to let the students prepare the potion materials for him for the next class.

  Besides being funny, she was also proud, and under the "catalysis" of love, she developed a feeling called sweetness.

   But this feeling didn't last long. When Severus announced that the medicine was ready, Remus was brought in, this time with chains on his hands, and in a steel station cage.

  Pomona thinks the kids don't want to see this scene, they'd rather remember the shabby Defence Against the Dark Arts professor who played the music and let them "funny" to deal with Boggart in the closet.

  Severus put the potion in a goblet and handed it to the Auror, who fed it to Remus, who didn't respond after drinking it.

   "You can talk to him," Severus said. "He can answer your questions."

   "Of course, he is still a person." A middle-aged man wearing single-sided glasses said, "How do I know if he can communicate after he transforms."

   "Can you recite the Five Principles of Gamp Transfiguration?" Pomona said immediately.

   "What's the use of this?" said the man just now.

   "At least for comparison, after drinking the potion, how much sanity the werewolf can keep in wolf form." Pomona replied.

While others were talking, Remus had already started to recite. He not only recited the principles of Gamp Transfiguration, but also the "Principles of Magic". When the "audience" under the stage asked questions about what he had recited, Remus was not only able to answer accurately, but also to express his own opinion.

  The clock is gradually moving towards 12 midnight, because it is underground, it looks no different from 12 noon, but some people are already yawning.

For wizards who have just come from abroad and haven't suffered from jet lag, it's daytime where they live. They shouldn't have any sleepiness, but when everyone around them is yawning and looking sluggish, they Also started to feel sleepy.

   "Are you going to transform into a werewolf?" Fudge said at this moment.

  Pomona wanted to tell him at this moment that the transformation of a werewolf was uncontrollable. Even the third-year students knew that he could change if the Minister of Magic ordered Remus to change.

   "We have a way to transform you..." Fudge said.

   "No!" Severus interrupted loudly. "That would interfere with the results of the experiment."

   "Don't worry, it's just a little spell," Fudge said.

   "Even a little spell." Severus interrupted Fudge again. "That's unacceptable."

   "Then we'll just sit here stupidly, waiting for him to transform?" Another "spectator" shouted.

   "If you want to go back to sleep, no one will stop you." Someone in the crowd said "I'm going to stay here and see the results."

   Some people echoed, others got up and left. For those who left, those who stayed booed at their backs, and even deliberately tripped when the other party passed by, acting like a first- and second-grade student.

   The scene was a bit chaotic. Fudge had just rushed to the judge's seat, intending to knock a wooden hammer to keep everyone quiet, and Remus' transformation began.

   This scene made everyone quiet, only Remus screamed in pain in the courtroom.

Human legs are different from animals, or in other words, humans walk with all their feet on the ground. Animals have very long feet, and their toes and soles are on the ground, so people often mistakenly think that the heels of animals are calves, and put the ankles of animals on the ground. The joints are like knees.

  Because of his long feet, Remus's shoes no longer fit, he pulled up a little and his spine was deformed.

   Anyway, it looked too bad, no one spoke even after the transformation was over, only Remus's gasping sound could be heard.

   "Can you recite Gamp's Law of Transfiguration?" Pomona asked, her voice even echoing.

   Remus shook his head, and then pointed his finger at his mouth, which also deformed, and the teeth turned into fangs.

   "You can shake your head and nod when we ask you a question, right?" Pomona asked.

   Remus nodded again.

   "Are you a werewolf?" Fudge asked.

   Remus nodded.

   "You volunteered to join the experiment?" Fudge asked.

   Remus nodded.

   "When we take your handcuffs off, can you promise not to attack anyone present?" Severus asked.

   Remus nodded, but the people around him were noisy.

   "You can't do that!", "It's too risky!", "I've had enough, I'm leaving!"

   The scene got out of hand again, and Fudge struck the wooden hammer.

   "Quiet!" Fudge exclaimed, and then he looked solemnly at the Aurors "to undo his handcuffs."

The   Aurors hesitated, but they did, but Remus remained in the cage, clawed hands on the railings, and then there was no attack.

   Those who claimed to be leaving sat down again, and Fudge began to ask questions again.

   "Do you know how much 1+3 equals?"

   Remus nodded four times, then stopped.

   "Do you know who he is?" Fudge asked, pointing at Severus.

   Remus nodded.

   "Did you mean to attack him last month?" Fudge asked.

   "What does he mean?" Pomona heard someone in the crowd whisper.

   "You shouldn't be asking this question at this time, Mr. Minister!" Pomona stood up.

   "Why can't I ask?" Fudge asked.

  Pomona was just thinking about how to answer when Fudge asked Remus, "Have you ever hurt anyone?"

   Remus shook his head in pain.

   "This is a lie, we found a lot of blood at the scene, who does it belong to?" Fudge asked.

   "He can't talk," Pomona said. "Like I asked him if he could..."

   "Does it belong to Sirius Black?" Fudge demanded. "The blood belongs to him, and you hurt him?"

   Remus let out a dog-like howl.

   "He's bleeding so much that he can't get far, or did you eat him?" Fudge asked.

   Remus shook his head.

   "You don't know, or you don't remember?" Fudge asked.

   Remus still shook his head.

   "You don't need to torture him like that." said a man with white hair. "We already know he's rational."

   "This is not torture." Fudge looked at the other and said, "We all know that werewolves are very hungry for human flesh..."

   "But this one isn't!" Pomona interrupted Fudge. "You want him to admit that he ate Sirius Black so you can close the case and not a single human escape from Azkaban."

   "Quiet!" Fudge whispered to Pomona.

"What I see is that you are guiding the people here, and if I keep quiet, Mr Minister, what you are going to say next is that your cross-examination is 'necessary' and you will be illegally acquitting him with the acquiescence of the others. interrogation."

   "That's your assumption!" said Fudge through gritted teeth.

"We all know you're good at interrupting people, Fudge, like your old buddy old Buddy Claw, who didn't even give Sirius Black a chance to defend himself and sent him to Azkaban." Bomer Na said.

   "You think Sirius Black was wronged?" Fudge said.

   "She doesn't know what she's talking about, Mr. Secretary," Severus said, then looking at Pomona, he said calmly, "Sit down."

   "Unless Mr. Minister agrees not to ask questions like that," Pomona said.

   Fudge was lying on the judgment table, looking down at Pomona.

   "And you, in what capacity are you protesting?" Fudge said.

  Pomona was thinking about how to answer, but Remus slammed into the cage, looking like he was about to attack.

   She sat down, and Fudge gave her a contemptuous look, then to Remus.

"We all know that werewolves are very thirsty for human flesh and blood, and we can even assume that before we were dealing with a wild beast. After drinking the potion, it became a ruthless killer with the physique of a wolf. And human wisdom, this is very detrimental to us." Fudge said, "Wolfmen will not become defenseless just because they drink potions. Fortunately, it is very expensive, and the process of brewing is very complicated. Only technology It takes great people to do it, like all of you here."

  The audience remained quiet.

   "I believe that a law will be introduced in the future to carry out 'management'. Now that you have learned the results, I suggest that you stay here today, and you will go back to rest first, and tomorrow..."

   "I won't be coming." A man stood up, then walked away without looking back.

   As soon as he left, the others stood up one after another, and no one seemed to be interested in Fudge's advice.

Pomona glanced at Fudge and shook his head at the Minister of Magic before he left, but she guessed he didn't see it because his attention was on Damocles and Severus, Severus's With Malfoy standing beside him, he was all smiles at the moment, as if he was winning, looking so smug that one couldn't help but want to punch his nose.

===================================================== =============

Billiards is a closed system, initially the **** are neatly placed in a highly ordered state, but once the game starts, the **** become disordered, and people want to hit a stick to make all the **** back in order. Order is extremely unlikely.

   Hogwarts is actually a closed system, the difference is that students are not always in an "ordered state", such as when they stay in the classroom for class, and sometimes they are out of order, such as when they are out of class and after school.

   There is a sentence in "A Brief History of Time": The degree of disorder or entropy in a closed system increases with time, in other words it is a form of Murphy's Law, and things always get worse.

This is to mention "time reversal", time reversal is that the space coordinates remain unchanged, the time coordinates change, just like Harry and Hermione turning the time converter back to Hogwarts, not other time travelers, no matter what Whether the time or space coordinates have changed.

Imagine a pair of electrons that move in opposite directions at high speed and annihilate, and become a pair of photons after annihilation. In time reversal, the two photons will move in opposite directions, but they may not be a pair of positive and negative particles, even if annihilated , their outgoing directions are not necessarily opposite to the original process.

   Speaking of human words means that time reversal is not necessarily the "reversal" of the original process, that is, many people intuitively think that the "movement process" and "history" are reversed.

   If a time traveler makes some people who should have been born "unborn", and no one increases, it can be understood as a decrease in entropy.

There are fewer billiards on the table, and the "source of vitality" is gone. Unless you take out the **** that fell into your pocket, put them back into the triangle frame, and start a new game, your opponents will definitely try their best not to let you score. Bags are scored, each ball is scattered, and the process of increasing entropy means increasing chaos.

  At the moment of the big bang, the entropy was extremely low, and then it keeps increasing, and there is more chaos than order, such as the asteroid belt, they are not always in stable Lagrangian points, and there are always a few that leave its position.

  Where does it fly? It may be outer space. The comet that hit Jupiter in July 1994 came from the asteroid belt outside the solar system and entered the solar system to become a periodic comet. If it revolved around the sun, the earth would be hit.

  Although it was torn apart by Jupiter's gravity, it still hit it, and one of the resulting "craters" was the size of the Earth.

  It wasn't until now that Pomona figured out what Severus meant by giving Harry Potter a lightbulb, which she figured out after listening to Napoleon's speech at Mechelen.

  If, according to the Malthusian population theory, human beings must control the growth of the population, why do the British always go to the United States to arrest people and serve as soldiers?

   Before the American Revolution, they searched for healthy men directly in the colonies. After "independence", they could only capture merchant sailors as navy.

  Malthus also said that over-breeding is caused by human beings, animals and plants, by the impulse to reproduce. At first glance, there is no problem. The wheat is ripe once a year, and the human is only one year older, and the mouse is finished in 5 months.

   One person was anxious. Seeing that the seedlings were growing slowly in the soil, he wanted to pull up the seedlings to "help" them grow, but all the seedlings died.

   But the land has its bearing capacity. It needs fallow and fertilization. The enclosure movement made the British agriculture progress, but the cheap foreign food made the domestic farmers go bankrupt. This is the "Corn Law".

Georgiana opened the book "Showing God's Wisdom from Creation" that Farron gave her. Through anatomy, the author found the difference between the human heart and the limbs, because people are standing, and the effect of gravity on people is different from animals. , but she did not agree with what he said, that there is no flaw, excess or useless in human beings.

   Then she thought of Remus, what would the heart beating in his chest look like?
