"I ALREADY TOLD YOU THIS IS NOT A GOOD IDEA!!!" Pang Zi shout out loud, after Xiao Ge knock Wu Xie down, without thinking of anything Xiao Ge suddenly wanted to go back to that waterfall to search for a way out, and now they are running away from hundred probably thousand of evil trees chasing them, Wu Xie is still on Xiao Ge back sleeping, while Pang Zi and Mr.Octopus also run for their lives

"Xiao Ge!! If you have any plan or clue, this is the right time for you to show it all" Pang Zi shout again, but not long after that, a loud banging sound came from behind them, sending smoke and small stone flying everywhere, making the loud sound reverberate all around
"The HELL is that?!! A bomb?" they stop running and turn around to only saw the effect of it, but then, there comes another one, and another one. Xiao Ge suddenly hear a buzzing sound coming near them, it is a small ball-like thing that can fly with a red dot in the middle, Xiao Ge seems to can guess what it is and told them to run. Turns out it is indeed a device that causes the explosion, spreading all around the forest

Such a messy bumping, Wu Xie is woken up by that and is shocked because the first thing he can see and hear is an explosion sound all around him
"What the hell are the both of you doing!!" Wu Xie shouts and now just realizes that Xiao Ge is holding him tight while running for their lives. Xiao Ge look at Mr.Octopus and it immediately knows what to do, they have discussed it earlier, if something goes wrong along the way, then it has to take them to the nearest hiding place it can be found.

After they were finally able to hide in another small cave, Xiao Ge hurriedly smash the opening and they are trapped inside there, at least until the situation out there is safe enough for them to dig another opening to get out.

Wu Xie harshly pushed Xiao Ge aside, eyes full of anger and a hint of despair "I already told you not to do anything reckless, can't you just hear me for once!!" Wu Xie raises his voice, his eyes red. Xiao Ge just looked at him blankly but anyone who has been with him for a long time knows that he is also feeling a bit down too.
"That.. Wu Xie, don't be mad" Pang Zi trying to calm the situation, but Wu Xie looked at him sharply, knowing what he has done, Wu Xie sit down there and closed his eyes. Xiao Ge wanted to sit beside him but Pang Zi pulled him away, sitting a little far from him and whispering something when they see Wu Xie is already asleep, seems like he is still not fully recovered from his injuries

"Xiao Ge, eventhough Wu Xie never says anything but I know.. we know, Xiao Hua, Xia Zi, Xiu Xiu, all of us know what he had done in order to set you free, to set Qiu Men free. He never specifically explains the things he has been going through but it certainly won't be something easy, or else how could be the Tian Zhen Wu Xie we know become someone more quiet and can even do tricks now?" Pang Zi said, Xiao Ge can only hears without saying anything

"You just come back after 10 years, he won't be able to handle it if you are gone now" Pang Zi said. Pang Zi knows clearly that the world is dark, for someone like Wu Xie to be able to defeat that darkness, it is going to be double the effort, probably tripled, the things he has been going through will probably feel like a scar that will never be healed, the more he tried to hide the more he will get hurt, as if pouring salt into the old unhealed wound. That is also why Pang Zi wanted Wu Xie to at least say it once for all and forget about it, or at least for him to be able to get over it with fast and become happier from now on, making him realized that he is still not alone in this world, that there is still kindness left and it is also the people that have been with him up until now.

"That doesn't justify the reason why he should do it alone" Xiao Ge whispered
"I know, if you think that Wu Xie is easily swayed as you said, then he will not have that many secrets that I didn't know" Pang Zi said "Those years of him going out exploring, I don't even know where he went or the complete story of what he has done. I once already said that the innocent of his will surely make him lose a lot of things, but he still did it, you and I know that we can't do anything about it, just seeing him from aside and protect him with our utmost ability" he said solemnly, but Xiao Ge agreed about this and nodded.
