Ah Lian nodded. Thinking of the relatives and villagers who had been killed by the evil thieves and buried in the pit at the foot of the mountain, she said to Li Yu, "Madam, when the officials come, we still want to hire someone to bury our relatives."
"Alright, I'll mention this to the officials. Remember the faces of the bandits who came to the village all these years. Get someone to draw them so that we can find them."
Ah Lian looked at Li Yu and said, "Madam, we remember all the thieves who left. The thieves who came to slaughter the village that night all wore black masks. The leader of the thieves wore a mask and only his eyes were exposed. That evil thief was tall and his voice was a little hoarse. He stood there and didn't attack."
"I heard him give the order to keep the young women. I also heard my father-in-law shout that it wasn't bandits. It was soldiers."
