Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world.

Chapter 46 A Warning

Liang Jin took a closer look and realized that the essence of "God's Movement" lies in its variability and flexibility.

The first three levels are called "Grease Your Feet", which can greatly increase movement speed and jumping ability.

The third level is called "Gecko Climbing the Wall". After mastering it, one will be as light as a swallow and can climb over walls and enter houses as if walking on flat ground, quietly and silently.

The last three levels are called "Loach Drilling a Hole". After mastering it, one will be as slippery as a loach and impossible to catch, and can absorb external forces.

Liang Jin couldn't help but secretly praise:

"This secret book is really amazing!"

"Once you've mastered it, even if you can't beat someone, you can still run away."

"I wonder if my original body's martial arts proficiency will also improve if my clone comes to practice?"

Liang Jin tried it right away.

He was on guard duty in the palace and had little time to practice the secret techniques.

If a clone practices martial arts, the other clones and the original body can also be improved.

So if there are ten or a hundred clones, how terrifying will the speed of martial arts improvement be?
Liang Jin is full of expectations for this.

At this time.

A figure walked over.

Liang Jin looked up and saw that it was Zhao Bao, whom he had not seen for a long time.

I saw that Zhao Bao had become much stronger, his skin had become darker, and his spirit was much better.

Obviously, his martial arts training has been put on the right track, and his nutrition has been improved, so these days are not as painful as before.

"Brother Jin."

Zhao Bao greeted them with great enthusiasm.

Liang Jin smiled slightly and said:

"It seems that you prefer the life in Zongwu Mansion."

Zhao Bao nodded in agreement.

When I was working in the cleaning department, I was bullied and insulted, didn’t have enough to eat or sleep well, and was tortured every day.

This even made Zhao Bao have thoughts of committing suicide.

But now that he had entered Zongwu Mansion, the food had improved greatly, and with the reputation of his godfather Li Dafu, few people came to bully him intentionally.

The daily martial arts training and exercises are naturally hard and can almost make a person lose a layer of skin, but Zhao Bao never slacks off.

He knew very well that only after going through countless trials and tribulations could he reach a higher level.

"Brother Jin, has Xiaolian been here?"

Zhao Bao looked around and asked.

Liang Jin replied:

"She doesn't have much to do these days, so she often comes to play with me."

"But he hasn't come today yet. I guess he'll be late."

"How come you have time to come here today?"

After hearing this, Zhao Bao calculated in his mind how long he could stay.

Then he whispered:

"Brother Jin, I came here today because I want you to think about something for me."

Then, Zhao Bao told Liang Jin about what happened that morning.

original.

The Zongwu Mansion recently transferred in a new chief instructor, an old eunuch.

This old eunuch is over seventy years old and has poor hearing and eyesight.

A few days ago, the old eunuch met the new people in Zongwu Mansion for the first time and then started to take attendance.

Among the newcomers, there was one called "Wang Yi". When the old eunuch was calling the roll, due to his blurry eyesight, he misread it as "Wang Tie", and no one answered.

Then the old eunuch read it twice again. At this time, the one called Wang Yi said, "My name is Wang Yi, not Wang Tie," which caused the newlyweds to burst into laughter.

Zhao Bao saw that the old eunuch was embarrassed, so he stood up and apologized to the old eunuch, saying that he had written the wrong name when entering it into the roster.

The old eunuch flew into a rage and severely criticized Zhao Bao in public. Zhao Bao simply apologized without making a single word of defense.

But in fact, Zhao Bao was not responsible for entering the roster at all. His purpose in doing so was just to leave a good impression on the new head coach.

Two days later, this morning, Wang Yi was expelled from Zongwu Mansion for failing the training.

On the contrary, Zhao Bao was judged to have excellent training and was appointed as the head of the dormitory, who could manage the newcomers of the same period when the coach was absent.

Afterwards, Zhao Bao was called aside by the old eunuch, and the two had the following conversation.

The old eunuch said:
"These past few days, I've noticed that you're quite clever, diligent in your training, and exceptionally gifted in martial arts. Furthermore, you possess a rare and patient nature. You should achieve great things in the future."

Zhao Bao was overjoyed, but he remained humble and respectful on the surface, saying things like "I dare not" and "you are too kind".

But the old eunuch asked again:
"I heard that you have Li Dafu as your godfather?" Zhao Bao nodded, not daring to hide it.

The old eunuch just shook his head:

"Pity."

After saying this, the old eunuch turned and left, and never spoke to Zhao Bao alone again.

This made Zhao Bao think for the whole day, but he couldn't figure out what the old eunuch meant.

But I have no way to confide my doubts to outsiders.

In the entire palace, the only two people he could confide in were Liang Jin and Su Lian.

Su Lian is a simple-minded person and you can't rely on her for these things.

So today, Zhao Bao took advantage of his free time and ran over to ask Liang Jin.

After listening to Zhao Bao's story, Liang Jin thought for a moment and asked:
"What is the identity and background of the old eunuch?"

Zhao Bao shook his head:
"I only know his name is Cao Xian. He was recently transferred to Zongwu Mansion to serve as the head coach to train new recruits."

"As for what he did before, none of us newcomers can find out for sure."

"But his martial arts skills are very high. Even my godfather treats him with courtesy when he sees him. He always seems very mysterious."

Cao Xian?

Liang Jin had never heard of this name either.

As the head of Zongwu Mansion, Li Dafu is the third most important person in Zongwu Mansion and holds real power.

An ordinary head coach certainly wasn't worthy of being treated with such courtesy by a figure like Li Dafu, to the point that even Zhao Bao found it strange.

In particular, this old eunuch actually called Li Dafu by his name in front of Zhao Bao without using any honorific title.

None of this makes sense.

Liang Jin thought about it and said:
"Ordinary eunuchs can apply to leave the palace when they are in their forties or fifties. Only eunuchs who hold positions of power are reluctant to leave the palace so easily."

"That Cao Xian is over seventy years old and still in the palace. He is also very skilled in martial arts and is definitely not an ordinary person."

"If even someone like this can't be found, it's probably because his previous position... couldn't be made public."

"So, since I'm too old to handle the job, I was transferred to Zongwu Mansion to retire and train new people."

Zhao Bao's heart moved when he heard this.

There are indeed some positions in the palace that cannot be seen in public.

It is said that in addition to some visible palace guards, His Majesty also has some secret guards around him.

It’s just that those secret guards live in the shadows of darkness, coming and going without a trace, and no one knows who they are.

In addition, there is the notorious police station.

The Jishichang was a secret agency whose main functions were to collect intelligence, monitor civil and military officials, safeguard imperial power, investigate major cases, and interrogate criminal suspects.

The most important thing is that the Investigation Bureau is only responsible to the emperor and can supervise and arrest subjects at will without the approval of the judicial authorities.

The core members of the Investigation Bureau are all eunuchs, and the identities of many spies are secret and unknown to outsiders.

In addition, there are some shady jobs, but they cannot be compared with these two.

Regardless of what kind of job Cao Xian actually did, Zhao Bao knew that this kind of person should only be treated well and not be treated as an enemy.

Zhao Bao immediately exclaimed:
"Brother Jin, it seems I have to get along well with Cao Xian from now on."

"But why did he tell me it was a pity after asking about my godfather?"

Liang Jin looked at Zhao Bao with a serious expression.

His voice was low but extremely solemn:

"He's giving you a reminder, or a warning."

"Or, he is Li Dafu's sworn enemy. Seeing that you are on Li Dafu's side, he will suppress your future."

"Or maybe he knew that Li Dafu was going to harm you. He was grateful for your help back then, so he gave you a special reminder."

Zhao Bao was surprised when he heard this.

Zhao Bao felt that the first guess was unlikely. After all, Li Dafu and Cao Xian seemed to be getting along well with each other and did not seem to have any conflicts.

Especially since they promoted Zhao Bao to be the head of the temple, it didn't seem like they wanted to harm Zhao Bao.

As for the second guess, Zhao Bao found it even more difficult to understand.

He was puzzled:
"Why would my godfather be against me? I once gave him the secret manual."

Liang Jin said helplessly:
"It seems that you didn't take my warning to heart."

Zhao Bao was stunned at first.

When he recalled Liang Jin's previous advice, he suddenly woke up.

In an instant, he felt as if he was hit on the head with a stick.

Not only did his entire body feel dizzy, his face instantly turned pale, and even a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead...
