Chapter 16 Chapter Sixteen

Di Gong, Tao Gan.Zong Li went down to the southwest tower and went to the Four Saints Hall to see Zhenzhi's body.The corpse has been covered with gossip robes, and seven-star lamps are lit around it. Di Gong walked to the Sanguan Hall of the West Side Hall, always thinking about the strange character Momo in his mind.Tao Gan and Zong Li followed him.Tao Gan said: "The master will rest in this hall for a while, and then discuss how to capture Momo." Duke Di nodded and said: "Momo has always worried me. No matter what, we must first arrest Momo and save the victims who fell into his hands. Tao Gan, I don't know where the one-armed woman is hiding at the moment. Who is she, and why did she fall into Momo's hands."

"One-armed woman? I just heard Tao Xianggong also talk about one-armed woman..." Zong Li was surprised. "Hmm!" Di Gong turned around and asked Zong Li, "Have you ever seen a woman with a broken limb here?" Zong Li shook his head with a puzzled look on his face. "Why did the master suddenly ask about a one-armed woman? I have stayed in this temple for half a month, and I have never seen a woman with a broken limb. Could it be that the master is referring to the statue in the ten halls of Yama?" "A statue?" Duke Di was surprised. . Zong Li nodded and said, "Master, the chained wooden statue in the Tenth Hall of Yama's left arm fell off because of moths, but it was repaired when we saw it tonight."

Di Gong's eyes shot a strange brilliance, and he asked anxiously, "Are you referring to the one with the green face and fangs pointed at her chest with a trident?" Zong Li nodded in confusion again. Di Gong punched the tea table and shouted, "You...why didn't you say it earlier?" "Master." Zong Li timidly replied, "When we passed the Tenth Hall of Yama just now, I mentioned that a statue was damaged by moths and needed to be repaired..." Duke Di jumped up suddenly: "You all come with me!" Holding the lantern in hand, Di Gong rushed into the Tenth Hall of Yan Luo, and didn't stop until he ran in front of the blue-faced and fangs Ye You.Tao Gan and Zong Li couldn't figure it out for a while, so they just followed closely behind.

Mr. Di wiped the sweat from his forehead and said angrily, "Look, she's still bleeding!" Tao Gan and Zong Li looked down at the woman tightly bound by the iron chain, traces of bright red blood were oozing from the woman's hardened white knees and chest. ——Yasha's sharp trident has pierced her chest! Di Gong hurriedly bent down, and carefully pushed the long hair off the woman's face. "White Rose!" Zong Li gasped and screamed. "She has been killed!" "No." Duke Dee said calmly, "Her fingers and lips are still shaking!" White Rose was wrapped five or six times by the iron chain, unable to move at all.Her face and body were painted white, and her frightened eyes looked at the three people in front of her in fear.

Zong Li bent down and was about to get rid of the iron chain, but Duke Di shouted: "Wait a minute." He gently lifted the sharp trident in Yacha's hand and twisted it vigorously, only to hear the handle break off with a "snap". He jerked suddenly, and the wooden Yaksha fell back on his back.The sharp blade of the trident was dripping with blood, and the white-lacquered breast of the white rose was stained red. The three of them slowly removed the iron chains wrapped around Bai Meigui's body, and took off the iron hooks and iron clips one by one.Duke Di opened White Rose's mouth and pulled out a large ball of cotton. Two crystal-like teardrops hung from White Rose's cheeks and dripped hotly on the back of Di Gong's hand.

"White Rose!" Duke Di called softly. Bai Meigui nodded and passed out. Di Gong took off his robe and covered Bai Meigui's body, Zong Li took out two gun barrels from the hands of the two evil spirits, Tao Gan stripped off his robe and tied it between the two gun barrels to make a small crude stretcher.The three carefully put the white rose into the stretcher, and Tao Gan and Zong Li lifted it up. Di Gongdao: "Take her to Miss Ding Xiang's room first."
