For a statistical data $x _1, x _2, \ldots, x _{10}$ of $10$ values, a student obtained the mean as $5.5$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{10} x _{ i }^2=371$. He later found that he had noted two values in the data incorrectly as $4$ and $5$ , instead of the correct values $6$ and $8$ , respectively. The variance of the corrected data is
