Chapter 26 - Chapter 25. Sweeping through the Lin family.

"Oh! So dizzy. My spiritual power is still too weak. After doing only a little bit, it has almost been depleted. It seems that I really need to find a way to cultivate this spiritual power." After successfully entering the attic, Yun Xiao sat on the ground immediately. He took a deep breath but still felt a bit dizzy in his head. Just like when he repelled Jiang Shan's sword at Yingchou Mountain that day, it took a long time for him to recover. He knew that this was the aftereffect of overusing spiritual power. The reason was that his spiritual power was still very weak and had not reached the point where it could be used freely. Speaking of which, this was also the most fatal weakness of divine masters. No matter how powerful a divine master is, if they overuse their spiritual power, they will have a period of weakness of varying lengths. In a duel between masters, even a moment's delay is enough to kill any opponent who has no ability to resist. Therefore, no divine master will easily let their spiritual power be exhausted to avoid becoming a powerless cripple. "Hehe, anyway, I finally managed to sneak in." Shaking his head and putting aside the dizzy feeling, Yun Xiao couldn't help but show a delighted smile on his face. Before this operation, he had already thought of this situation. So, during the day, he deliberately bought several door locks and practiced for half an hour before finally mastering the skill of unlocking. Of course, the most difficult part was locking the iron lock from inside through the iron door. You know, the iron lock itself is quite heavy, and it requires a lot of strength to lock it. To practice this series of actions, he spent much more time than unlocking. If other divine masters knew that he, a divine master, actually used divine power to do such petty and sneaky things, they might exclude him from the ranks of divine masters. "No matter so much. I should rest first and replenish the consumed spiritual power." Finding a hidden place and sitting cross-legged, he temporarily ignored what treasures were around him and focused on recovering his spiritual power. At the same time, the two guards at the door had already picked up all the dozens of gold notes. In no time, they returned to the front of the attic. "You run so fast. Obviously I found it first, but you grabbed more than me." "Boss, you can't say that. We found it together. How can it be that you found it first?" "Obviously I found it first. Don't be so stubborn. Quickly give me one of yours." "Wait, we were only focused on grabbing the money and forgot the important thing. Quickly check if there is anything abnormal." "Huh?" The two were still arguing. Suddenly, the guard called the second one changed his expression as if he had sensed something. Reminded by him, the other guard was also shocked and realized the problem. In the middle of the night, so many gold notes suddenly fell from the sky. This doesn't seem to be a common occurrence! Speaking, the two hurriedly came to the iron door and looked at the door lock at the same time. After finding that the door lock was intact, they both breathed a sigh of relief. "Fortunately, it seems that it's just windy tonight. These gold notes must have come from somewhere." "It should be." "Okay, continue to stand guard. After our shift is over, I'll treat you to have fun. Now you should be satisfied, right?" "That's more like it. You're sensible..." "Stop talking. If those patrolling guys see us, it will be bad..." "The two guards divided the loot and stopped arguing. They continued to stand guard seriously as if nothing had happened... The entire Lin Mansion was silent. It seemed as peaceful as usual. Whether it was the master of the Lin family or the servants, they all fell asleep deeply as the night deepened, recovering the physical strength consumed during the day. At the warehouse door, the two guards seemed a bit sleepy and gradually couldn't keep their eyes open. Finally, they simply leaned against the iron door and closed their eyes to rest. Of course, although they said they were resting with their eyes closed, in fact, at this moment, they were basically no different from being asleep except for their instinct to stand. However, if someone wanted to enter the warehouse, they would definitely wake up at the first time and would not miss anything important. On the other side of the iron door, Yun Xiao had rested for more than half an hour. The spiritual power consumed earlier had basically recovered by seven or eight tenths and had no impact on his actions. "It's true that even a fierce tiger has times when it dozes off. It seems that these two outside will sleep for a while." Releasing his spiritual power outside, he found that the two people outside were currently fighting against sleepiness. Even if he made some noise inside, they might not hear it. "It's time to see what treasures are in the Lin family's warehouse!" Sensing the situation outside, Yun Xiao knew that he could finally start acting. He took a rough look. But because it was too dark inside the attic, it was difficult to see what was around. However, a problem that would be a big trouble for others was not a problem for him at all. Slowly releasing his spiritual power, immediately, with him as the center, a radius of ten meters was all presented in his spiritual power. Even a grain of dust could not escape his perception. "Hiss... So many good things!" Taking a deep breath, Yun Xiao found that the Lin family's warehouse was indeed rich in supplies. On the nearest row of shelves, wooden boxes were neatly arranged. And in each wooden box, there were exactly two snow ginseng. Although he couldn't see the specific years clearly, they were definitely spiritual plants over a hundred years old. "Are these snow ginseng that have been packaged and are going to be sold in bulk to large households? Tsk tsk, it seems that someone will come to pick these up at dawn. But for now, it's going to benefit me." Snow ginseng is the most common natural treasure in Hongluan Town. It is distributed on the periphery of Yingchou Mountain. Even ordinary people can try their luck on the periphery of Yingchou Mountain. Maybe one day they can dig up a few plants with good years. He roughly calculated that there were twenty wooden boxes of snow ginseng here. There were two plants in each box, so there were a total of forty plants. And these forty snow ginseng plants were probably collected by the Lin family over several months. "Shopkeeper Lin, you are willing to sacrifice your daughter for profit. This time, I'll let you know what retribution is!" With the treasures in front of him, Yun Xiao would certainly not be polite. Taking off the space ring hanging around his neck and putting it on his hand, he gently took down the wooden boxes from the shelves one by one. Then, carefully operating the five elements true qi, he wrapped the wooden boxes one by one and put them all into the space ring. His current strength was still too weak, and he couldn't release true qi at will. So he could only collect them bit by bit. If he were a Yuan Dan realm martial artist who could release true qi outside his body at will, he could take them all at once and save a lot of effort and time. Of course, there was still a long time before dawn. He had plenty of time to collect them slowly, so he was not in a hurry. His space ring was a keepsake left to him by his parents. Although there were not many treasures inside, the good thing was that the space inside was extremely huge. Even he himself didn't know exactly how big it was. In short, the space inside was definitely much larger than this attic. It was more than enough to hold all the treasures. After all the snow ginseng were collected, he explored the row of shelves on one side with his spiritual power again and found that on this row of shelves were all some bright red spiritual herbs. Each spiritual herb was sharp and prominent, just like a long sword. "Red sword grass? The Lin family can even collect this thing. I wonder who got these treasures." He recognized these red spiritual herbs. They were a rare spiritual herb that grew deep in Yingchou Mountain, named red sword grass. Logically speaking, ordinary hunters would not dare to go deep into the area where red sword grass grows because in such areas, there are already magical beasts. It is extremely dangerous. Of course, it was not excluded that there were people who were willing to risk their lives for profit. "There are more than a dozen red sword grass here. The years of each plant should also be almost a hundred years. It is extremely beneficial to me. Take it!" Putting these spiritual herbs simply together and holding them in his hand, with a puff of true qi, he put them all into the space ring again. In the following time, Yun Xiao checked inch by inch and collected all the treasures on the first floor of the attic into the space ring. Whether they were of deep years or shallow years, as long as they were useful for cultivation, he would not let any go. Speaking of which, all the things that could be placed in this warehouse by the Lin family were all treasures of sufficient weight. Because those ordinary spiritual herbs and spiritual medicines were basically placed at Shengxin Pharmacy and there was no fear of others stealing them.
