Chapter 1047: The Ghost in the Strange Courtyard

Translator: Lonelytree

The horse bandits raised their torches and saw the plaque in the courtyard-Li Manor!

“Chief, how are we going to rob this time?” Xiao Ba asked, “Should we burn the place down after stealing the stuff, or is it just stealing and killing? ‘

Xiao Ba said this lightly. It was obvious that this group of people often did such things.

Sitting on the horse, the First Master looked at the structure of the Li family’s courtyard. It was in a wealthy area. Once it was set on fire, the surrounding buildings would inevitably be affected.

Recently, the officials have been keeping a close eye on their actions. If this rich area was burned down because of this fire, it might attract not only the officials of South Cloud City but also the army of the imperial court.

After all, the people who lived here were either rich or noble. Although the bandits were not afraid of these people from the government, they did not want to go against the army of the imperial court.

That was because facing them was very likely to be a dead end.

In order to reduce the trouble, it was better not to set fire. The Leader said, ” Kill them and steal their treasures! ‘ “Yes!” The other fifteen people replied in unison.

The Chief said to his subordinate, ” Go knock on the door! ‘ A thin man jumped off his horse and knocked on the door.

“Bang bang…”

However, no one came to open the door after knocking more than ten times.

The skinny man frowned and said to the boss, ” No one came to open the door!

The boss also saw the situation and frowned. He asked Xiao Ba again, ” Xiao Ba, did the person you followed enter this house? ‘

Xiao Ba said with certainty, ” Yes, Chief. I personally followed these three people and saw them enter this courtyard with my own eyes. Moreover, until the Chief arrived, my two subordinates and I had been staring at the door, but we didn’t see them leave. Therefore, the three of them must still be in this room.”

The Second Leader said strangely, ” Big Brother, something is wrong. At first glance, this family is either rich or noble. However, with such a large courtyard, did they not even have a guard? Otherwise, after knocking on the door for so long, they should have come out long ago when they heard the commotion. Chief, let’s retreat!”

However, the Third Leader immediately shouted in dissatisfaction, ” Second Brother, why are you lowering our morale? So what if there was something wrong? Could it be that they have laid down an inescapable net and are waiting for us to come? But even so, so what? Didn’t the government set us up like this every time?

“However, didn’t we still rob people and return with a great victory?

“Our gang has been the king here for more than ten years. Who can do anything to us? So, Second Brother, don’t think too much. Big brother, why are we knocking on the door? We can just charge in. There’s no need to be polite with these ants!”

The ants he was referring to were, of course, people who were inside the house. The Leader thought for a moment and nodded. ” Third Brother is right. Our gang has been the king of South Cloud City for more than ten years. We have never been afraid of anyone! Let’s just charge in!”

The Second Leader still had some doubts. ” But Big Brother, the situation is obviously different this time! This isn’t …” Even if someone had set up an inescapable net inside, there should have been some movement.

However, this courtyard was very quiet. It was so quiet that it was a little strange!

The Third Leader immediately interrupted him and said, ” Second Brother, how come I never realized that you’re as timid as a mouse! This is clearly just a relatively wealthy family, not a royal family. Besides, didn’t Xiao Ba say that they look like ordinary people with some money? Right, Xiao Ba?”

Xiao Ba nodded and replied, ” Yes, Third Boss! ‘

The Third Leader immediately said with some complacency, ” Second Brother, did you hear that?! ”

The Second Leader was still worried. ” But, Third Brother…”

‘ Alright, Second Brother, ” the Leader interrupted impatiently, ” Third Brother makes sense. Don’t be a sissy. If word gets out, they’ll think that our horse gang has become cowards!”

Then, without waiting for Second Brother to react, he waved his hand and ordered, ” Kick the door open and barge in! ‘

After receiving the order from the chief, three or four subordinates immediately dismounted. Then, they stretched out their feet and kicked the door open.

After the door was kicked open, they returned to their horses and rode in first. Their goal was to scout the way..
