A cloud of dust billowed up.
Particles of dust, illuminated by the sunlight, were clearly visible.
A group of guards rushed into the residence, only to see a black shadow disappear around a corner inside.
They hurriedly gave chase.
Then they spotted two small figures, running towards the outside through the window of the abandoned dwelling.
Upon approaching, they made a startling discovery.
The window was so small, they couldn't even stretch their heads through it.
It was hard to imagine how those two beggars had managed to squeeze in.
Smashing the window wouldn't do much good; they would probably have to knock down the entire wall to get through.
"Still chasing?"
"Forget it, they're probably out of reach now."
"The master is still watching from behind, shall we put on a show? Otherwise, do we not want our pay?"
The guards whispered amongst themselves and, in a tacit understanding, began deliberately smashing the window.
