Chapter 572: Free Labor
Qin Yi put the huge knife back into her Origin Space and spoke plainly, âSorry. It was an accident.â
Yang Jindi wanted to jump up and swear, but this smelly liquid was all over her body and the moment she opened her mouth, some of the liquid would get inside, just like snot.
She vomited at that moment and things became worse after that. She was covered in both filth and liquid, which made her even smellier.
However, that was none of Qin Yiâs business.
Many people could tell that this youth did it on purpose, but nobody blamed her. After all, they had tolerated Yang Jindi for a very long time, and it was her fault that the ant had woken up in the first place.
If not for Qin Yi and the other two people, they probably wouldnât even be alive.
Not only were these people grateful for Qin Yiâs help, but they also respected and feared her even more.
Qin Yi used her mental strength to wrap her own hand, then pulled out a crystal core from the antâs headâit was dark green in color.
Qin Yi simply kept the crystal core for herself. She was poor ah, and the betrothal gift was cheated out of Lin Qing. She didnât have many crystal cores left and there were quite a few mouths she had to feed in the Origin Space.
Everyone was quite envious when they saw that crystal core, as they originally came to this place for the crystal cores. However, there wasnât a single zombie in M-City right now.
Perhaps⊠Perhaps they could kill these mutated ants.
At that thought, everyone started to become restless.
Qin Yi could tell that the rank of these mutated ants wasnât very high, and a few people could work together to get rid of it.
After all, it was easier to get rid of them after knowing their weak spot.
âVillage chief, there arenât any zombies here. Why donât we kill these mutated ants instead?â someone suggested.
âThisâŠâ Gu Cheng was a little hesitant, wondering, âThere are thousands of them here. Wouldnât that be too dangerous?â
He was tempted as well, but what was the point if they lost their lives over it?
âWhatâs there to be afraid of, village chief? They arenât awake yet anyway, we can just deal with them one by one. There will be thousands of crystal cores, ah. With that amount, we wouldnât have to worry for months. Also, we have Qin Yi around,â one of the men immediately suggested.
Qin Yi scoffedâdid they think that she was that generous?
âThatâs right, thatâs right! With Qin Yi around, we donât have to be afraid,â someone chimed in, as if with Qin Y around, they didnât have to be afraid of anything.
They didnât ask for Qin Yiâs opinion on the matter, not even intending to give her anything in return.
At that moment, Huang Ying spoke up timidly, âWe should give Qin Yi some crystal cores, then.â
Huang Yingâs voice wasnât loud, but the second she finished speaking, there was complete silence.
Those few men who had previously spoken up didnât really want to part with the crystal cores. If they gave some crystal cores to Qin Yi, that would mean that they would have less of them to split.
Nobody wanted that.
One crystal core alone could last them a number of days.
Nobody spoke, causing Huang Ying to become anxious. She knew that the one who had the final say here was Gu Cheng, so she quickly said to him, âVillage chief, they arenât from our village and arenât obliged to do this for us. We should pay them.â
Huang Ying had lived in this village for quite a few years, and naturally knew how ugly some of the people here were. Qin Yi was so nice to them and she didnât want her to be taken advantage of.
âHuang Ying, what nonsense are you spouting? It is exactly because they donât belong to our village that we shouldnât give them anything. Our village would only have a few crystal cores left if we gave some to them,â someone disagreed.
