Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 214 The Succubus Flame Spirit Princess in the Water

"???"

"Are you jealous?"

Xu Lin was taken aback upon hearing this, and then replied.

"No."

"Sister was just joking."

Yan Lingji immediately denied it.

Then he took out the letter that Mingzhu had sent from his sleeve and handed it to Xu Lin.

Xu Lin tore open the envelope and stared intently at the contents of the letter.

In his letter, Mingzhu said that the man in the straw raincoat lived in the area where Xinzheng and Nanyang were located, and he also attached a portrait of the man in the straw raincoat, but only the lower half of his face was visible.

Judging from the lower half of his face alone, the man in the straw raincoat looked no different from an ordinary person.

After a moment's hesitation, he handed the letter to Yan Lingji.

"Although it is still difficult to determine where the man in the straw raincoat lives, at least the area has been narrowed down."

After reading it, Yan Lingji said.

"Do you think this man in the straw raincoat could be a member of the Net?"

Xu Lin nodded, and then asked.

The man in the straw raincoat is secretive and skilled at intelligence gathering, much like a member of the Luo Wang assassin organization.

"A snare?"

"Probably not?"

Yan Lingji frowned slightly.

If the man in the straw raincoat were an assassin from the Luo Wang organization, would he have told Ji Wuye about Mo Ya's visit to the Xu residence?

You should know that Xu Lin has done a favor for Luo Wang!
If it weren't for Xu Lin, would Luo Wang have "abandoned darkness for light" and abandoned Lü Buwei to join Ying Zheng?
"It doesn't matter if it's not true."

"I have never liked killing people; I prefer turning people to defect."

"If the man in the straw raincoat is willing to abandon darkness and embrace the light, it might not be a bad thing for the Net!"

Xu Lin smiled.

Then he rode his horse to the Luo Wang stronghold.

Before long, he met Qian Sha.

"Is the Straw-Clad Swordsman, one of the Four Fiends of the Night, a member of your Net?"

Xu Lin got straight to the point.

"No."

Qian Sha shook his head.

"This man is extremely skilled at gathering intelligence. If he could be used by the Qin Dynasty, it would not be a bad thing."

"Therefore, your net can try to turn him against his cause."

"If we can't win them over, it's not too late to kill them."

Xu Lin said seriously.

After speaking, he took out Mingzhu's letter from his sleeve and handed it to Qian Sha.

"it is good!"

Qian Sha was taken aback at first, then nodded.

"How much does your Luo Wang (Net of Heaven) charge for killing someone?"

"I brought two thousand taels of gold with me, I wonder..."

Xu Lin asked curiously.

He was interrupted by Qian Sha before he could finish speaking.

"Sir, what are you doing?"

"You have done us a favor, how could we possibly accept your money?"

"The man in the straw raincoat is a killer who works for the Koreans. Eliminating him is our duty as the Luo Wang!"

Qian Sha hurriedly said.

Seeing that Qian Sha was serious, Xu Lin stopped giving him money.

"Your Majesty appoints people based solely on their talents; it would be best if we could win them over."

Xu Lin reminded him in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

Qian Sha nodded.

Then they saw Xu Lin off as he left the stronghold.

After Xu Lin disappeared from sight, Qian Sha wrote a letter to Yan Ri.

If it's just about killing the man in the straw raincoat, there's no need to ask for permission to cover the sun.

But this matter involves turning the Straw Raincoat Man against his own side, and turning him against his own side is completely different from killing him!

……

Two days later.

The dwelling of the Black Crow.

After breakfast, Mo Ya tried to take a walk in the courtyard.

After confirming that he could walk, he looked up at the Xu residence.

If it weren't for Xu Lin, he would have been seriously injured even if he hadn't died. Therefore, he had to go to the Xu residence!
"Have you considered?"

Mo Ya looked at Bai Feng, who was staring blankly at the sky, and asked.

Bai Feng stood on the eaves, dressed in a long white robe, like a flying bird.

"Sister Parrot, have you made up your mind?"

Bai Feng sat down and crossed her arms.

He was not in a hurry to switch sides to Xu Lin.

Actually, he didn't really want to switch sides with Xu Lin; he liked freedom.

Leaving Bai Niao and turning to Xu Lin, isn't that just going from one cage to another?
"Probably not yet."

Mo Ya said.

Yingge has a good personal relationship with him and Baifeng. If Yingge has made up her mind, she will definitely come and tell him and Baifeng.

"Well, I haven't decided yet."

Bai Feng smiled broadly.

Upon witnessing this scene, Mo Ya hesitated to speak.

More than ten years ago, he was just as full of vigor as Bai Feng.

When Bai Feng reaches his age, he will realize that many things in life seem like choices, but in reality, there are no other choices.

"Then take your time to think about it."

Mo Ya said.

After saying this, he rode his horse to the Xu residence.

As early as the day before yesterday, no one was secretly monitoring him.

……

After a stick of incense.

Mo Ya arrived at the Xu residence. Xu Lin was currently playing in the bathhouse in the backyard with Yan Ling Ji.

After faintly hearing a knock on the door, Yan Lingji immediately released 'Xiao Xulin', dried herself off, put on a long dress, and left the bath room.

"I'll teach you a lesson tonight!"

Yan Ling Ji's allure was as captivating as water.

After speaking, she pursed her red lips and walked towards the door.

Squeak.

The door opened in response.

Is the gentleman home?

After seeing Yan Lingji, Mo Ya asked.

He lowered his head as soon as he finished speaking.

He was not a lecherous man. Yan Lingji was Xu Lin's woman; how could he just look at her like that?

"exist."

"Go to the study first."

Yan Lingji nodded, her red lips slightly parted.

"it is good."

Mo Ya nodded and strode towards the study.

Yan Lingji went to the bathhouse in the backyard.

Xu Lin had just come out of the bathtub.

"Who's coming?"

Xu Lin asked.

"Ink Raven".

Yan Lingji answered.

Then they started to wipe Xu Lin's body.

"Wipe it yourself!"

"My sister is practically your servant now!"

Seeing Xu Lin's expression of enjoyment, Yan Lingji said irritably.

After saying that, she threw the bath towel at Xu Lin's chest.

"What's wrong with the servant?"

"I was your servant last night!"

Xu Lin retorted.

Last night, Yan Ling Ji surprisingly chose the passive skill, which exhausted him!

"You did it voluntarily!"

Yan Lingji placed her hands on her waist.

Then I picked out a piece of clothing for Xu Lin from the wardrobe.

……

After a cup of tea.

Xu Lin, dressed in a long blue robe, went to the study.

"gentlemen!"

Following the sound, Mo Ya saw Xu Lin and bowed respectfully.

"It doesn't have to be this way."

Xu Lin waved his hand.

How is your injury healing?

"I heard from Yingge that you were beaten with dozens of lashes?"

Xu Lin asked.

"It's just a superficial wound, it's almost healed."

"If it weren't for you, sir, I would have been seriously injured, if not killed."

Mo Ya replied.

Xu Lin nodded, gesturing for Mo Ya to sit down and speak.

Mo Ya waved his hand, indicating that he should stay standing.

He is currently unable to kneel.

Xu Lin nodded in understanding.

Then he personally poured a bowl of tea for Mo Ya.

This flattered Mo Ya, who immediately stepped forward and accepted the teacup with both hands.

"I don't like to control my subordinates."

"But your old injury hasn't healed yet, so you should drink less alcohol recently."

Xu Lin said seriously.

"Yes!"

Mo Ya immediately accepted the order.

"It's not an order, it's a suggestion."

Xu Lin said loudly.

Mo Ya nodded, smiled, and took a sip of light tea.

"I have basically recovered. What do you need me to do, sir?"

After chatting for a while, Mo Ya asked seriously.

"Two things."

"First, keep a close watch on Ji Wuye. Report any news to me immediately, and do not act rashly."

"Second, persuade Yingge and Baifeng to leave the Hundred Birds Organization."

Xu Lin said as he thought.

"promise!"

Mo Ya accepted the order without hesitation.

"What do Yingge and Baifeng think about switching sides to me?"

Xu Lin asked casually.

"Bai Feng is still young and doesn't understand things."

"He was thinking of switching allegiance to you, sir, along with Yingge."

"Yingge has served Ji Wuye for many years and takes the matter of switching sides very seriously, so I estimate she will need to consider it for a while longer."

Mo Ya told him the truth.

"Not urgent."

Xu Lin nodded.

He prefers to take things slowly, so he's not in a hurry.
