Chapter 153: Human-to-human transmission
Hua Changxi didn't want to go back to the Hua family early and planned to stay in the Shennong Herb Shop to make pills before the 23rd. Unexpectedly, Eunuch Yu came to find him the next day.

"Master, Prince Shou wants to divide the 18 Qihuang Halls among different people. The Seventh Prince sent someone to tell me about this and asked me to find you and tell you to go back quickly. Otherwise, even if you have the wooden sign, you may not be able to get a single Qihuang Hall unless you are on site."

Hua Changxi frowned after hearing this: "Divide Qihuang Hall? What does Prince Shou want to do?"

Eunuch Yu shook his head: "After Prince Shou came to the Medical Bureau, many rules were changed. Now there is a new street master in the First Street who manages all the alchemists."

After hearing this, Hua Changxi was silent.

She knew very well that although the spiritual energy had revived, cultivators, monsters, and plants had appeared one after another, and unrest had occurred in many places, the basic order of the Great Jin was still there. In this situation, the royal family and the court were the most orthodox administrators.

Prince Shou took over the Medical Department, and as long as she wanted to stay in the Medical Department, she had to obey his management.

"Let's go back to the Medical Department."

The predecessor of the Medical Bureau was the Dan Sheng Temple, and the Dan Sheng Temple was closely related to the Shennong Ding. Hua Changxi was unwilling to completely sever ties with the Dan Sheng Temple.

In the current situation, we can only take one step at a time.

Hua Changxi and Eunuch Yu returned to the Medical Bureau. As soon as they entered through the back door, they saw the servants leaving the servants' hall dejectedly, carrying their packages on their backs.

When Eunuch Yu saw this, he sighed and said, "Prince Shou has dismissed all the original servants."

Hua Changxi frowned: "Without the chores, who will do the work?"

Eunuch Yu shook his head. He no longer had much management authority in the Miscellaneous Services Hall. All the management personnel were arranged by Prince Shou. He was not familiar with them and could not get any useful information from them.

Hua Changxi silently watched the servants leaving in disappointment, passed them by, felt their helplessness and powerlessness, and walked silently towards the Qihuangguan street at the end.

"Manager Hua, you are finally here. Come with me to the old courtyard in the square. The prince and the director are already there."

On the street of Qihuangguan, the eunuch Xiao Lizi beside the Seventh Prince had been waiting here for a long time. When he saw Hua Changxi coming, he immediately greeted him with a smile.

Hua Changxi glanced at him and asked Eunuch Yu to go back to help him. She followed Xiao Lizi to the old courtyard in the square alone.

On the way, Little Leo was very enthusiastic and kept talking to Hua Changxi.

"Manager Hua, my Seventh Prince admires your medical skills very much and wants to become your disciple."

Someone was specially sent to inform her and someone was arranged to wait for her. Hua Changxi could see that the Seventh Prince was trying to befriend her. Although she was still unclear about the Seventh Prince's purpose, she did not want to make an enemy of a prince, so she accepted the kindness and laughed, "I am not qualified to be the Seventh Prince's master."

Little Lizi smiled and said, "Manager Hua is too modest. The Seventh Prince often praises your medical skills. Although I don't know anything, after following the Seventh Prince to listen to your lectures, I feel that I have gained a lot."

"The Seventh Prince often said that although he has not formally accepted you as his master, after listening to so many of your lessons, you two have already become a master and disciple. In his heart, he has long regarded you as his master."

"Whether you acknowledge him or not, he will treat you as his teacher and respect you. As long as the Seventh Prince is in the Medical Department, no one will dare to disrespect you."

After hearing these words, Hua Changxi thought of something and asked with a smile: "I used to be the manager of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall and could live in a separate courtyard, but now I am just a small servant and the courtyard I live in has not been taken back. I guess it was because of the Seventh Prince's request?"

Little Li smiled and said, "These are not worth mentioning. Manager Hua, please don't take them to heart."

Hua Changxi's eyes flickered. To the Seventh Prince, it was a trivial matter that was 'not worth mentioning', but it was this trivial matter that was not worth mentioning that could stump her.

If the current manager of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall really wants to take back the yard, she will have no "legitimate reason" to continue living there.

This is the difference between having power and losing power!
Soon, Hua Changxi followed Xiao Lizi to the old courtyard in the square.

The old courtyard, which was originally quite spacious, became a bit crowded because Prince Shou brought a lot of people with him.

In the yard, Gu Xing was still the same, lying in the rocking chair with his eyes closed. Prince Shou should have communicated with him, but judging from his gloomy expression, the communication process between them should not have been very smooth.

When Hua Changxi saw that Mu Qingying and others who had wooden signs had arrived, he automatically walked over to their side and stood still.

Standing opposite Mu Qingying and her group was a group of royal relatives, who were now alchemists in the pharmacies occupied by the royal family on First Street. The Seventh Prince was standing among them, and when he saw Hua Changxi coming, he took the initiative to smile and nodded at her.

Hua Changxi saw it and nodded with a smile.

"Your Majesty, my opinion is that the person who holds the wooden sign will be in charge of one Qihuang Hall, and the other Qihuang Halls will be up to you. What do you think?"

The director looked at Prince Shou with a smile. Although he was asking for his opinion, his attitude in his words was a bit tough.

It can be seen that although the Medical Bureau was taken over by Prince Shou on the surface, the director still has the right to speak and make decisions in many areas.

Prince Shou glanced at the director, then looked at Gu Xing who was keeping his eyes closed and saying nothing: "Senior Gu, what do you think?"

Gu Xing opened his eyes and looked at Prince Shou: "I have already told you my opinion. Dan Sheng Temple will choose its own master, and Qihuang Hall also has its own selection rules. My opinion is to let nature take its course, but will you listen, Your Majesty? If you don't listen, why bother asking for my opinion?"

Prince Shou's face darkened: "Senior Gu, are you really unwilling to give me some advice?"

Gu Xing sighed: "I am just a gatekeeper in the Gu family. I don't know more than you. If the prince doesn't believe it, there is nothing I can do."

Having said that, he closed his eyes again.

Seeing this, Prince Shou's eyes were filled with anger. He had volunteered to take over the Medical Bureau, and he had to take this holy place of alchemy for the royal family.

"If you are useless, then you can't stay in this yard any longer?"

Hearing this, Gu Xing suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Prince Shou with cold eyes: "Want to chase me away? Forget about you, even if the emperor came in person, he doesn't have the qualifications, get out."

As soon as the word "get out" came out, the people in the yard saw Prince Shou being knocked away by an invisible force. Then, a loud crash was heard outside the yard.

Hua Changxi stretched his head and saw that Prince Shou had hit the stone tripod in the square and was sliding down from it. Although he did not vomit blood, judging from his distorted facial features, the blow must have been very painful.

Compared to Hua Changxi who was watching the fun, Mu Qingying and others were a little shocked.

There was no other reason. In their eyes, Gu Xing looked like he was about to die. King Shou was a Jindan realm cultivator after all, but he was knocked away so easily by him.

The director was also full of surprise. Although he had some guesses about Gu Xing's strength, this was the first time he saw him take action. He couldn't help but be shocked to see that he was so powerful, even stronger than he had guessed.

Gu Jinfan was filled with shock at the moment. There was nothing she could do. In her previous life, Gu Xing was beaten to death by a few mortals. Now that she saw how strong he had become, she began to doubt herself.

Gu Xing and Dan Sheng Temple were tied together. Gu Xing became stronger, which meant that Dan Sheng Temple was reviving. Dan Sheng Temple was slowly being activated in a place she didn't know.

"Did these people do something?"

Gu Jinfan cast his gaze on Hua Changxi and the others who had the wooden signs, his eyes somewhat wandering.

After Gu Xing drove Prince Shou out of the old courtyard, he closed his eyes again. Before closing his eyes, he glanced in the direction of Hua Changxi and a hint of doubt flashed across his eyes.

During this period, this girl rarely came to the Medical Department, but the Dan Temple did not stop the revival. What did she do?

Did she spread the things in Qihuangguan?

Who did you pass it to?

Hua Changxi noticed Gu Xing's eyes, but she didn't understand it. She didn't think Gu Xing was an ordinary person. She thought it was normal for him to show off his skills today.

However, what she didn't know was that part of the reason why Gu Xing's strength grew was because she passed on the Qihuang Body Refining Technique to the Hua family.

Grandpa Hua gave the body-refining technique to the Hua clan, who then gave it to some of their friendly families. The daughters-in-law of the Hua family also copied the body-refining technique and gave it to their respective families. Hua Minghe also shared the body-refining technique with the Six Gates.

In this way, the art was passed on from person to person, from family to family, and from clan to clan, and naturally more and more people practiced the Qihuang body-refining technique.
