My enemies became my companions

Chapter 10 Min Ning's Bad Habits
【Added skill: Copper Bone Skill.】

After getting the martial arts technique from Captain Li, Chen Yi immediately injected ten years of true energy into it.

[You have just acquired the Bronze Bone Skill, so start practicing it right away.]

[During the three years, you mainly focus on beating your skin and training your muscles and bones. Both are hard skills that require exposure to wind and rain, and training day and night.]

【Five years later, you have finally achieved some success through hard work and practice.】

[Ten years have passed, and you have not only honed your skin and bones, but also trained your organs and cleansed your marrow. However, this technique is not of the highest quality, so you can only go so far. Your bronze bone technique has reached perfection, and even if you are naked, you are still like wearing iron armor, with a bronze skin and iron bones that cannot be broken by ordinary metal or iron.]

【Bronze Bone Kungfu (Advanced)】

【Remaining amount of true energy: forty years.】

"It seems that the end of the Tonggu Gong is here."

Chen Yi did not place too much pressure on this technique.

As a defensive technique that is relatively easy to obtain in the early stages, its rank itself is not high, it is just a mid-grade technique.

But even so, this technique is extremely practical.

When fighting against ordinary warriors, as long as the weak points such as the neck are not attacked, his iron body can even shatter the opponent's swords if used properly.

So next...

Chen Yi turned around and looked at the sundial on the Xichang parade ground. It was now the Si hour, probably around nine in the morning.

"Calculating the time, at this point...Min Ning should be going to visit her sister in half an hour."

As a second-round player, Chen Yi has done a lot of research on the actions of many characters, especially the heroines.

I spent a lot of time observing and pondering the game over and over again.

It just comes in handy.

"Then... I should go meet Min Ming before she gets there."

.....................

Baihua Tower is located in the northern city of Dayu capital, which is connected to other urban areas by waterways and lakes. It is home to many restaurants, teahouses, and brothels. During the Lantern Festival, painted boats will fill the river and there will be singing and dancing everywhere.

But now it was late autumn and morning, so there were not many people on the road.
Chen Yi, dressed in his official uniform, came to Baihua Tower. An old procuress recognized him immediately, walked up to him and asked:
"Captain Chen, do you want to come and listen to the music? But right now... in broad daylight, few girls can get out of bed."

Chen Yi asked meaningfully:
"Miss Min, can you get up?"

The madam didn't understand what he meant. She thought about it and nodded slightly.
"Okay, I'll let Miss Min know right away. Please wait in the hall."

Sitting in the hall, a runner naturally brought tea to Chen Yi. Chen Yi did not drink it, but thought about Min Ming and the forces behind him.

The person who opened Baihua Tower was Li Jisheng, a wealthy silk merchant from the south. To be so wealthy here, it was natural that there was collusion between officials and businessmen. In his hands, he controlled several high-ranking officials from the weaving bureau.

When Li Jisheng came to the capital, he kept a low profile, went in and out in a low profile, rarely rode in a sedan chair or a carriage, and rarely looked after his properties personally. It seemed as if he was leaving everything to chance, but in fact, this man was secretly operating an intelligence network in the capital for a certain organization.

Chen Yi naturally knew about this organization. It was called Wuyonglou, which means a hidden dragon that is not to be used. Many arrangements in the capital city were closely related to it.

And Min Ming is the capable man arranged by Wuyonglou to work in Baihualou.

Not long after, the madam came downstairs in a hurry, and said in a panic:

"Captain Chen, Miss Min was drunk last night and can't get out of bed today. In order not to spoil the adults' fun, I think..."

Chen Yi sneered:
"She doesn't want to see me?"

The madam's face turned pale. She didn't expect Chen Yi to be so blunt.

"Then please tell her something."

The madam asked:

"What?"

Chen Yi replied:
"Miss Min, you don't want Min Ning to resign and return home, do you?"

...............

Walking up the brown wooden stairs, Chen Yi finally reached the second floor as he wished and came to a wing room.

The woman was wearing a green skirt, sitting inside with a zither in her arms. Her slender hands and her chest made her clothes look slightly fuller, making her look very charming.

"Miss Min, you are finally willing to see me?"

Chen Yi sat down casually and looked somewhere.

Negative emotions: 60

After a day or two, she calmed down a little. "Master Baihu...what's your purpose?"

Min Ming's voice was cold, and his eyes were uncertain.

"Why do you need to embarrass a weak woman like me...who has no one to rely on."

After the last experience, she never wanted to see this man again. Not only did he use some secret method to take away her true energy, he also humiliated her unscrupulously and trampled on her beauty that she was proud of. Now, he even threatened her with Min Ning and forced her to meet him. Thinking of this, Min Ming couldn't help but feel uneasy.

“You really don’t have a hangover, Miss Min.

In this brothel, anyone could get hungover, except Miss Min."

Chen Yi said with a smile.

Min Ming put away his messy thoughts and asked:
"Master, what do you want to say?"

Chen Yi uttered three words:
"Don't use the building."

Min Ming paused, the zither in his hand stopped, his fingertips were stiff, and his clothes kept rippling.

"You are…"

Before Min Ming finished speaking, Chen Yi smiled and said:
“Don’t ask me how I know that.

The West Factory always knows things that people don’t want others to know.”

Min Ming's face darkened, his fingertips pinched the strings of the guitar, and his thoughts were unsettled.

There was a hint of murderous intent in her eyes. As an asset of Wuyong Tower, there was more than one spy and more than one master in Baihua Tower. As long as she screamed, no matter how powerful the captain of the Western Factory was, he would ultimately be no match for four hands.

Suddenly, she heard some noise outside the door.

"Captain Min, your sister is still entertaining guests, don't go up!"

Hearing the madam's voice, Min Ming's pupils shrank slightly, and the murderous intent in his eyes disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Chen Yi also heard it.

Moreover, I didn’t just hear it.

I also know that...Min Ning has a bad habit.

"Master Bai Hu, you are here for no other purpose, right?"

Min Ming didn't know what Chen Yi was thinking, so she spoke softly.

Chen Yi did not answer directly, but stated something that seemed irrelevant:
"Min Ning, courtesy name Yuechi, inherited his father's career. He joined the Imperial Guard at the age of fifteen, and was later transferred to the Western Factory. After five years of hard work, he was able to inherit a thousand households from a small flag.

This guy likes to be chivalrous and righteous, and because of this he is ostracized by the two factories. However, he is upright and has no stain, so he remains standing.

The only pity is that she has a spy sister."

The more Chen Yi spoke, the more panicked Min Ming became. She tried her best to keep a straight face, but her fingertips were tightly gripping the strings, leaving red marks.

"Tell me, if the East Factory knew about this, would Captain Min still be able to stay in the Two Factories and One Guard?"

Chen Yi asked in a very sincere tone.

Min Ming shuddered.

As a spy, she naturally knew very well what kind of people were in the East Factory.

"What...what do you want?"

Min Ming tightened the strings of the zither, unable to help but tremble in his voice:

"Since the captain has no interest in me, what exactly does he want?"

Chen Yi spoke in a calm tone, showing a gentle smile, and asked:
"Miss Min,

Would you like to be my concubine?"

Boom.

The strings were broken.

Outside the door, Chen Yi could faintly hear the crackling sound of clenched joints.

Chen Yi couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.

Min Ning, Min Ning...

Your bad habits,
I just like to eavesdrop, and I tend to get confused by caring too much.
