Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 1 Li Wu comes to your door
240 BC, the seventh year of King Zheng of Qin.

Xianyang, the capital of Qin State, was a garrison of the Yingmi Guard.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Xu Lin put the half-eaten pear into his mouth, picked up the umbrella on the table, and strode out the door.

"Lao Liu, Lao Ren, see you the day after tomorrow."

Xu Lin tucked the umbrella under his arm and smiled.

He traveled to this world eighteen years ago. This world is not the traditional historical Qin Dynasty, but a world that is a fusion of the animation "The Legend of Qin" and "Tian Xing Jiu Ge".

This world not only integrates the anime, but also differs slightly from the anime. For example, if we follow the anime timeline, there is no Shadow Guard yet, but now there are not only Shadow Guards, but he has also become the chief flag of the Shadow Guards.

"See you the day after tomorrow, sir."

Old Ren, who had just turned thirty but whose hairline was receding rapidly, waved his hand.

He wanted to say that it was not time to 'get off work' yet, but even the leader of the Shadow Secret Guard, Zhang Han, could not do anything to Xu Lin, let alone him?

"Sir, this month is almost over, and you have only been to the guard post three times."

"General Zhang comes to the garrison for inspections at the end of every month. If you have nothing to do tomorrow, it would be best if..."

The short and sturdy old Liu suggested respectfully.

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xu Lin.

What he hates most is working overtime. In the future, he had to work overtime to make a living. Now that he has traveled through time, he is still asked to work overtime?
Don't even think about it!

"I should take a day off tomorrow."

"If General Zhang has any objections, let him come to me."

Xu Lin disagrees.

"Xiu Mu" is equivalent to a rest day in later generations. Officials in the Qin Dynasty had one day off every five days, and Xu Lin had one day off every three days.

It is said that he has one day off every three days, but in fact Xu Lin often finds various excuses to take a day off. The number of times he has spent in the garrison in a month can be counted on one hand!
When Old Liu heard this, he hesitated to speak.

Only Xu Lin dared to say this.

Although Zhang Han's official position was not particularly high, he was only responsible to King Ying Zheng of Qin and held the power of life and death. The secret guards were said to be "like maggots attached to the bones, like shadows following the body, and like the king himself."

As soon as we left the garrison, it started to drizzle.

Seeing this, Xu Lin stretched comfortably, then opened his umbrella and walked straight home.

His home is not far from the guard post, and it only takes an incense stick of time to walk there.

The rain was getting heavier and there were fewer and fewer people on the road.

After a cup of tea, Li Wu, who was sitting sideways in the tavern, saw Xu Lin leisurely and contented, smiled coldly, then winked at the two strong men opposite and started fighting with them.

"Someone is coming!"

"help!"

After more than ten breaths, Li Wu shouted while retreating.

She was a member of Luowang, and was approaching Xu Lin on the orders of Luowang's leader, Lu Buwei, the current prime minister of Qin.

Xu Lin's brows furrowed slightly when he heard the voice. He turned his head to look at Li Wu, then continued walking forward.

It's time to get off work now, and he doesn't bother to care about the fight.

Xianyang is the capital of Qin State, where all kinds of people live together and fights happen from time to time. Such a small matter does not require the chief commander of the Secret Guard to take action personally, not to mention that it is still time to get off work.

The tall Li Wu saw that Xu Lin only glanced at her and then continued walking forward without looking back, her brows furrowed.

How could she miss this rare opportunity to contact Xu Lin?

After a brief hesitation, Li Wu deliberately took a punch from the burly man, then flew backwards, blocking Xu Lin's way.

"Sir, save me!"

Li Wu crawled on the ground and pleaded in a pitiful manner.

The two strong men strode towards Li Wu.

"young people."

"My Lord advises you not to meddle in other people's business."

"This is none of your business!"

The burly man in the lead deliberately provoked.

He was not a member of Luowang, but a "stooge" hired by Li Wu with money.

Upon hearing this, Xu Lin frowned slightly.

Just as he was thinking about whether to take action, Li Wu suddenly hugged his thigh.

Seeing that Li Wu had a good figure and temperament, and was about the same age as him, Xu Lin turned his head to look at the two burly men with fat faces.

"The Great Qin State is founded on laws. Do you know what crime you will be punished for bullying a woman in the street?" Xu Lin asked slowly.

"We are not Qin people, what does Qin law have to do with us..."

The strong man in the lead disagreed.

But he was interrupted before he could finish his words.

Xu Lin mobilized his inner strength, condensed the rain into a sword, and used the "rain sword" to pierce the chests of the two strong men.

thump!
The two strong men fell to the ground and died instantly.

After seeing this scene, Li Wu's beautiful eyes trembled and she seemed to want to say something but stopped herself.

She had heard that Xu Lin had a high level of cultivation, but she didn't expect it to be so high!
The move just now, 'Condensing Rain into Swords', I'm afraid even a master-level expert can't do it, right?

"How did you offend them?"

Xu Lin stood with his hands behind his back, looked down at Li Wu and asked.

Li Wu was wearing a purple long dress and looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen Li Wu before!
"I came to Xianyang to visit my relatives."

"After visiting my relatives, I saw the rain was getting heavier, so I went to a tavern to take shelter."

"I ran into them while taking shelter from the rain. They wanted me to go home with them, but I refused. Then we started fighting, and then I met you, sir."

"Thanks to you, sir, for saving me. If it weren't for you, I would have been humiliated today, even if I didn't die. I will never forget your kindness, sir!"

Li Wu thought and made up the story.

She spoke so concisely, as if it were true.

Xu Lin naturally didn't believe it, because Li Wu's breathing was long and it was obvious that her cultivation was not low, but she just showed that her cultivation was mediocre. Is this reasonable?

If his guess was correct, the woman in front of him was sent by someone to approach him.

"It's just a little effort."

Xu Lin waved his hand.

"My parents died when I was young, and now I have no home."

"I wonder if you would be willing to take me in?"

"I am willing to wash clothes and cook for you, sir, to repay you for saving my life!"

Li Wu blinked her beautiful eyes and pleaded.

She acted so pitiful that it was hard to refuse her.

The rain was getting heavier, making Li Wu's silk skirt stick to her body, showing off her almost perfect figure.

How can you refuse a beauty who comes to your door?
As for the woman in front of me, is she probably an undercover sent by someone else?

What he fears least is undercover agents!

In the years since he joined the Shadow Secret Guard, what he is best at is inciting undercover agents to defect!
"can."

Thinking of this, Xu Lin nodded.

Li Wu was delighted when she heard this. She stood up with her hands on her knees, and then followed Xu Lin back home.

After arriving home, Li Wu took the clothes handed to her by Xu Lin, ran to the next room, and changed into Xu Lin's clean clothes.

Then started cooking for Xu Lin.

Although she doesn't cook often, she is a pretty good cook.

"What's your name?"

Xu Lin folded his arms, leaning against the wooden door, looking at Li Wu with a slender waist and asked.

"My name is Li, the Li that means leave."

Li Wu said without thinking.

Xu Lin's brows furrowed slightly when he heard this, and he rubbed his fingers in deep thought.

He seemed to have heard the name 'Li' somewhere before.

After pondering for a long time, he thought of Li Wu in the original novel.

According to the original timeline, Li Wu should now be working as a dancer in the mansion of Chang'an Jun Chengjiao. How did she come to him?
Did Lu Buwei think he was more dangerous than Chang'an Jun Chengjiao?

Thinking of this, Xu Lin smiled indifferently and slowly walked towards Li Wu.

"Did Lu Buwei send you here?"

Xu Lin looked at Li Wu with sharp eyes and asked seriously.

Li Wu, with her purple hair piled high, felt a pang of fear in her heart when she heard this.
