The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Xiao Mubei always believed in Chu Yunxi's judgment, so he immediately ordered his men to tie up Zhang Jichen, Jingrong and the servants present. He, Chu Yunxi, Baiyu, Heimu Zihan rushed to the small Buddhist temple together. At this moment, a shocking explosion suddenly sounded, and the rolling heat wave affected them all who were still some distance away from the small Buddhist temple.

Xiao Mubei reacted very quickly and hugged Chu Yunxi and turned around to hide. He stood up after the heat wave passed. Chu Yunxi said anxiously: "It's bad, I'm afraid the entrance has been blown up."

Xiao Mubei frowned in deep thought, then turned around and told Bai Yu, "Go find my senior brother right away. Take your men to the county government office and meet up with Lang Rui and the others. Make sure to capture County Magistrate Zhu and don't let him escape."

Bai Yu knew that the situation was urgent. If there was an explosion here, County Magistrate Zhu would definitely be alarmed and would escape. Lang Rui and his men would not be able to catch him in the county government office. So he immediately flew up and rushed to meet Wen Rulan.

Xiao Mubei originally wanted to deal with the matter at Zhang's Mansion before going to capture Magistrate Zhu. He didn't expect that there was an explosion here, so he had to split his troops into two groups. He and Chu Yunxi and the others rushed to the small Buddhist temple, and sure enough, the statue of Guanyin had been blown into several pieces. Several purple-clothed guards who had just arrived fell outside, all injured.

Chu Yunxi hurriedly asked the purple-robed guards who followed to carry them to a flatter place, and said to Xiao Mubei: "My Lord, you and Hei Mu hurry up and chase them. I will come to rescue them. You guys be careful."

The only person who never showed up from beginning to end was Master Zhang. This matter must have been his doing.

Xiao Mubei nodded, and entered the small Buddhist hall with Hei Mu. They began to clean up the rocks that had fallen at the entrance together with the Purple-Robed Guards. Chu Yunxi was outside, cleaning and bandaging the wounds of several injured Purple-Robed Guards. Fortunately, they had just arrived at the door and had not yet approached the Guanyin statue. In addition, they all had good lightness skills, so when the explosion occurred, they all reacted quickly and retreated with the shock wave, finally offsetting some of the damage. Although the injuries were not light, none of them were in danger of life.

Xiao Mubei and his companions spent about two incense sticks of time cleaning up the cave and finally dug out the entrance again. He and Hei Mu jumped in together. Zi Han wanted to follow him, but Hei Mu said, "Your internal strength hasn't recovered yet, so don't go. Stay outside and help the princess."

Zi Han thought about it and realized that if she went down now, she couldn't catch up with the speed of the prince and Hei Mu and would only be a drag. So she agreed and asked several purple-clothed guards to follow Xiao Mubei and the others down the tunnel.

As soon as they got out of the tunnel, they used their lightness skills to move quickly all the way and soon arrived at the place where the women were imprisoned. However, the cell was empty at this moment. How could there be anyone?

Hei Mu touched the straw on the floor of the cell and said, "It's still quite warm. He must have been gone not long ago."

Xiao Mubei looked at the walls around him. Apart from the corridor they had come from, it seemed that this place had come to an end and there was no other way.

"There must be a secret passage here. Let's split up and look for it." Xiao Mubei said, and began to check the cell.

Black Wood and Purple Guard also started looking separately. Xiao Mubei carefully checked the footprints on the ground. Gradually, he saw some clues. The straw on the ground was pushed diagonally in one direction. A picture appeared in his mind. Those women were dragged into the secret passage. They struggled and didn't want to leave. They pushed the straw away with their feet...

The secret passage must be on this wall!

Xiao Mubei looked up at the wall at the back of the cell, stretched out his hand and knocked on the wall. There was an empty echo from the other side. It was indeed empty. Seeing that Hei Mu and the purple-clothed guards had found nothing, Xiao Mubei decided not to waste time anymore. He asked Hei Mu to use his internal force to chop the wall. As expected, the wall collapsed, revealing a big hole, and outside the hole was another passage.

"Chase them!" Xiao Mubei and others chased after them.

Chu Yunxi bandaged the wounds of several injured purple-clothed guards and let them go back to the inn to rest. Then she and Zi Han waited at the entrance of the tunnel. Although she knew that it was only Mr. Zhang who brought only a few servants with him and was definitely no match for Xiao Mubei and Hei Mu, she still couldn't help but feel a little worried.

She didn't finally breathe a sigh of relief until she heard a sound coming from the tunnel and Hei Mu escorting a man in his twenties up first. Then a dozen girls, all in their teens, came up one after another. Xiao Mubei was the last to come up.

Chu Yunxi hurried forward and asked, "Are you okay?"

Xiao Mubei curled his lips and said, "It's okay. I finally rescued everyone. I'm sorry to have made you worry."

It turned out to be that Young Master Zhang. Because of Zhang Jichen's instructions, he had people keep an eye on the front yard at all times. Later, the servants came crawling to report that many martial arts masters had come to the front yard and started fighting. He knew that something was wrong, so he immediately came to the small Buddhist hall and entered the tunnel. Because his yard was very close to the small Buddhist hall, the Purple Guards could not catch up with him at all.

There were explosives buried at the entrance of the tunnel. People in their line of work had to keep a backup plan for everything. Zhang Jichen had told him long ago that if something happened, he just had to enter the tunnel, blow up the entrance, take the women away from the secret passage, and then kill them all in secret somewhere else. They would not be caught with any evidence, and would naturally be safe.

When Xiao Mubei caught up with him, he had just led all the women out of the tunnel with his servants. The exit was on the mountainside outside the town, and there was a dark forest outside. Master Zhang was planning to go a little further and kill all the women, but when he saw Xiao Mubei chasing him out, he panicked and didn't care about anything else. He ordered all the servants to stop Xiao Mubei and the others, and he took a knife and slashed at the women beside him viciously.

But since Xiao Mubei and Hei Mu had already chased him out, how could he be allowed to hurt these women? Hei Mu flicked his fingertips, and a small stone hit Master Zhang's wrist with the sound of wind. His whole hand felt numb, and he could no longer hold the knife. As the knife fell to the ground, Hei Mu's sword was already on his neck.

Those servants were no match for the Purple-Robed Guards and were captured before they could even make a single move. The ropes they had used to tie up the women were just the right amount to tie them up again. At this point, all the people in the Zhang Mansion were finally captured, and the women imprisoned in the dungeon were also all rescued.

Zhang Jichen was still stubborn in the front yard, saying that he was innocent. But when he saw Master Zhang being escorted out of the back yard, followed by a dozen girls, he finally collapsed. He knew he could no longer deny it, and muttered, "It's over. It's all over."
