Chapter 241

Regarding Hua Changxi, one of the two people who obtained a high-grade Divine Wood Secret Realm, all parties were still very concerned.

Learning that she was going to give a lecture on the square, all parties had different reactions.

People outside the Medicine Department were just surprised. For them, the location of the lecture was not important; the content of the lecture and the skills she displayed were what they really cared about.

As for the people inside the Medicine Department, their reactions were different. Most pavilion masters felt that Hua Changxi was unconventional and trying to be different; while those medicine masters and apprentices who wanted to listen to the lecture but couldn't squeeze into the Qihuang Pavilion felt that Hua Changxi's move was too thoughtful.

On the twenty-eighth day of the first lunar month, as the morning light appeared, on the Medicine Department square, with the stone cauldron in the north as the center, more than ten thousand cushions were laid out in an arc shape in an orderly manner.

Around the stone cauldron, several rows of medicine racks were also placed, with spiritual medicines washed clean hanging on the racks.

Early in the morning, apprentices, disciples, and menial laborers who wanted to occupy a good position and learn more medicine and alchemy knowledge arrived at the square early.

These people saw the layout of the square, first stuttered a bit, and then were full of joy.

"Everyone who comes to listen to the lecture today should be able to have a seat."

Although these people arrived the earliest, they didn't go to sit on the cushions near the stone cauldron, but took the initiative to choose positions relatively further back.

By the time the eight medicine boys from Qihuang Pavilion No. 13 arrived at the square, the middle rows of cushions were full of people, while the front cushions were ignored.

Watching this scene, Hua Shuran and the others thought of Hua Changxi's instructions yesterday, and all looked at Pharmacist Xu in unison.

Pharmacist Xu felt helpless inside, swallowed his saliva, hardened his heart, and strode towards those sitting in the middle.

"Everyone, sit forward. Pavilion Master Hua said that opportunities are left for those who are prepared. Since you arrived first, you have the opportunity to choose the best position."

With Pharmacist Xu taking the lead, the seven others, including Hua Shuran, joined in one after another.

"Everyone, sit forward. Although Pavilion Master Hua will use sound transmission techniques when teaching to ensure that everyone can hear, the feeling of sitting in the front is definitely different."

"When Pavilion Master Hua teaches, she will use spiritual medicine to help everyone identify them. Those who are close will definitely see them more clearly."

Hearing the mobilization of Pharmacist Xu and the eight others, not to mention, quite a few people were really eager to move.

Passerby A: "Can all the positions really be chosen at will?"

He Sirong: "As long as the position is empty, the first person to arrive can sit."

Passerby B: "What if we sit in the first row and a big shot comes later and asks us to give up our seats? At that time, I'm afraid we won't even have middle seats."

Pharmacist Xu: "That's not something for you to worry about. Just sit."

Although quite a few people were eager to move, in the end, very few really dared to stand out and walk to the front to sit down.

Gu Xing in the old courtyard heard the movement on the square, walked out of the courtyard, looked at the layout on the square, and his expression was dazed for a moment.

Compared to the lecture scenes of the previous pavilion masters, this one finally had a bit of the shadow of a preaching dojo.

After hearing clearly the words that Pharmacist Xu and the eight others kept shouting, a smile flashed in Gu Xing's eyes.

That girl Hua Changxi, although she acts a bit recklessly, she has a kind of 'even if there are thousands of people, I will go' solitary courage!

"Let's go, let's go sit down too and listen to what that girl is going to talk about."

Before, when other pavilion masters gave lectures, Gu Xing was too lazy to socialize with various forces and mostly arrived just in time. But for Hua Changxi's lecture, he was very much looking forward to it, and couldn't wait to take Sun Sun Pozi and his few capable assistants to the square.

Gu Xing naturally wanted to listen to Hua Changxi's lecture at close range, so he walked to the middle position of the first row of cushions and sat down.

As for Sun Sun Pozi and the others, they sat next to Gu Xing, one by one to the right of the first row.

Two bold cultivators had already sat in the positions on the right side of the first row, just bumping into Sun Sun Pozi and the others.

Just when the two cultivators were hesitating whether to give up their seats, Gu Xing spoke.

"You arrived first, so those positions are yours. Sit down securely."

After speaking, Gu Xing let his confidants sit to his left.

Other cultivators were paying attention to this scene, and seeing that the two cultivators who sat in the first row were not 'asked to give up their seats', those who were originally eager to move began to sit forward one after another.

Although the number of people was still not large, the first few rows of cushions were no longer empty.

By the time other Qihuang Pavilion masters and representatives of other forces arrived at the square, they found that there were not many empty seats left in the back rows.

Because of Gu Xing's 'encouragement' and 'approachability', the first row was already full of people.

Pharmacist Xu and the eight others looked at Prince Shou and the others standing outside the square without taking their seats, and although they were uneasy, they still bit the bullet and shouted loudly:

'First come, first served for positions.'

'Everyone, take your seats in order, no grabbing other people's positions.'

Not only were Pharmacist Xu and the eight others uneasy, but the menial laborers, apprentices, and disciples sitting in the front rows were also somewhat restless.

When Department Head Gu arrived with a few disciples, he saw Prince Shou and his party with bad expressions. After he saw the 'disorderly' seating arrangement on the square, he was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said:

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and take your seats, or you won't even have second-row seats later."

Then, Prince Shou and the others saw Department Head Gu really running to 'grab good positions' with others, and they were all shocked.

Chu Junhao took a deep breath: "Imperial Uncle, let's hurry up and take our seats too."

Prince Shou glared at Chu Junhao. He held his status as a Prince and couldn't bring himself to grab people's positions in public, so he could only walk towards the second row of cushions with a dark face.

Seeing that even Prince Shou had compromised, other pavilion masters couldn't continue standing there, and all followed to take their seats one after another.

Gu Jinfan watched this scene, her gaze flickering non-stop.

Hua Changxi... seems to always be able to do things that exceed her expectations.

On the other side, after Department Head Gu sat in the second row, looking at Prince Shou and the others who were forced to sit in the crowd, his expression was also quite emotional.

In order to stir up this bottomless dead water in the capital, the Minister had made several 'stone-throwing' attempts, but didn't see a single ripple.

After the guardian families appeared, although they set off some undercurrents, this dead water remained as 'calm' as ever, and its internal order from top to bottom was not shaken in the slightest.

Regarding the guardian families, the Minister actually held great expectations.

Unfortunately, the appearance of the guardian families not only didn't stir up the dead water, but instead joined in as another powerful force, making this dead water even deeper and more stagnant.

Not to mention the Minister, even he was full of disappointment.

Unexpectedly, Hua Changxi fell from the sky!

Hua Changxi is like a meteorite falling from the sky, shaking the dead water with her own strength.

Looking at Prince Shou and the others scattered in the crowd, Department Head Gu's eyes were bright.

The high-and-mighty imperial family is now behind others!

This means that some things have loosened!

Unfortunately, the Minister didn't come today. If he knew that the 'new atmosphere' he had been plotting for was achieved by a small seating arrangement, I don't know how annoyed he would be.

Department Head Gu suddenly had expectations, expectations for Hua Changxi's future path, that she could go far and long, and also, her head must be hard enough, she must keep going like this, and never give up halfway!

Other people who came to listen to the lecture saw that Prince Shou and the others really didn't ask the people who arrived first to give up their seats, and they didn't hesitate anymore, sitting towards the front positions one after another.

By the time the guardian families led by the Xia family, as well as the Meng family and Dongfang family with Meng Qingyao as the core, arrived at the square, only empty seats in the back rows were left.

"Did Hua Changxi not arrange seats for us?"

Xia Ziyang and the others were somewhat dumbfounded.

No matter where the people from the guardian families go, they are VIPs. They never expected that they would come to support Hua Changxi, but Hua Changxi didn't even arrange seats for them.

"Does Hua Changxi really not want to join the Spirit Realm Pavilion anymore? She doesn't give us any face at all!"

Dongfang Hao looked around the square, and when he saw that all the powerful and wealthy people like Prince Shou were scattered, and many of their seats were very biased and far back, his expression shook.

"She is not not giving us face; she is treating us equally with others."

At this moment, Dongfang Hao suddenly felt a trace of admiration for Hua Changxi.

Admiring her boldness and courage!

Whether it's the Medicine Department or the guardian families, the rules followed are all passed down from generation to generation. Although solid and reliable, they lack vitality.

Spiritual energy recovery is undoubtedly the beginning of a new era.

In a new era, the rules left over from the old days are obviously no longer applicable.

At this time, someone needs to stand up and break the old rules.

Hua Changxi... seems to be such a person!
