Chapter 164: Plunder

“Here are some pills that can heal your injuries.”

Qin Ming took out a large jade bottle from his spatial ring and handed it to the first kneeling boy, saying, “What’s your name?”

“Replying to Master, my name is Yang Shu!” The boy carefully took the jade bottle and replied respectfully.

Qin Ming nodded and said, “From now on, Yang Shu will be your Senior Brother!”

“Yes!” the others responded.

Yang Shu calmly opened the jade bottle and poured out a pill. Seeing the nine patterns on the pill, his expression changed. He looked up at Qin Ming and nervously said, “Master, this pill is too precious. Please take it back. Our minor injuries are not worth using such a pill.”

“Oh?” Qin Ming looked at Yang Shu curiously and said, “You know quite a lot.”

This boy was much more astute than the others, which was why Qin Ming wanted him to be the Senior Brother.

Now it seemed this boy also had some knowledge, unlike the others who merely looked at the pill with curiosity, completely unaware of the true value of a perfect pill.

The boy lowered his head and held the jade bottle high above his head, preparing to return it to Qin Ming.

Any single pill in this bottle was more valuable than their lives, yet Master had given them to them without hesitation.

Aside from his parents, no one had ever been so kind to him. For a moment, tears welled up in his eyes.

Qin Ming waved his hand and commanded, “Take these pills, one for each of you. Although these pills are precious, they are nothing compared to you.”

“Yes.” Yang Shu choked up, suppressing his heartache, closed his eyes, and put the pill in his mouth.

The others looked at each other, took the pills Yang Shu distributed to them, and consumed them.

Instantly, a warm current rose from their dantian, flowing throughout their bodies. The whip marks on their bodies disappeared at a visible speed, and at the same time, the feeling of weakness also vanished.

Even if they lacked knowledge, they knew the preciousness of this pill and immediately knelt down.

“Thank you, Master, for your grace!”

“Alright, quickly go and plunder the Sima family’s wealth. These will be your cultivation resources in the future,” Qin Ming said.

“Yes!” the others responded with powerful voices, no longer weak and powerless.

“Yang Shu, you stay,” Qin Ming said.

“Yes!” Yang Shu stood respectfully in place, while the others went down to the ground.

“Yang Shu, tell me about your situation,” Qin Ming said.

“We are all from Dayang Village,” Yang Shu thought for a moment and continued, “There were originally over three thousand people in the village, but the others were killed by bandits.

Only the two hundred and twenty-one of us survived.”

“Because my father was the village chief, I know a lot about these things,” Yang Shu added after a moment’s thought.

No wonder this boy was more astute than the others; his father was the village chief.

Qin Ming nodded, put his hands behind his back, and walked outside, with Yang Shu following closely behind.

The efficiency of over two hundred people plundering was something Qin Ming alone could not match, and they quickly finished the task.

Spirit stones, spirit plants, weapons, pots, bowls, and other items were piled on the ground like a small mountain.

“Master, all of the Sima family’s wealth is here. We have searched three times, and there are no other valuable items,” Yang Shu said apologetically.

“Mm!” Qin Ming nodded and put all of these into his spatial ring.

Fortunately, the Sima family had a few spatial rings, and these spatial rings were much larger than Qin Ming’s original one; otherwise, so many things truly wouldn’t fit.
