## Story

Wu Sanxing warns Wu Xie not to go soft again and to be aware of how often Wu Sanxing helped his nephew to survive. Losing trust in his uncle's motives, Wu Xie activates the communication and GPS device from Ning.

Wang Pangzi and Hua Heshang struggle to find the correct path walking in circles until they hear the explosion from the other group, spooking them. They follow the corridors and manage to find their way to Wu Xie and the others. Chen Pi Ah Si and Wu Sanxing tell them Lang Feng died from the wall centipedes but Wu Xie feels uncomfortable with their lies. They go to explore the hole from the explosion. A wooden structure is shown in the hole.

They bind everyone together with a rope and Wang Pangzi goes down first to explore a small hole in the floorboards of the wooden structure and widen it for someone to go through. Knowing the floorboards to be brittle, they try to be careful but Wang Pangzi gets his foot caught with something pulling on it. They work together to free it and Pan Zi jumps onto the structure to help Wang Pangzi. He tries to chop the floorboards away to free the leg but is unsuccessful and Wu Xie jumps into the hole as well. They hear the structure creaking and suddenly it breaks, pulling everyone down onto the floor below onto bricks and stones. They find themselves between rows of dead monks and wonder where the dead bodies came from.

Xie Yuchen disguises as Brother Dao and goes to his business deal. Just before the dealers arrive, he gets a call from Huo Xiuxiu but manages to hang up on time. He exchanges code words with the dealers, after having gotten them from the real Dao.

While searching for an exit from the chamber, Wang Pangzi gets pulled into a hole by a giant insect and the others manage to hold onto him together. Wu Sanxing shoots the insect so it lets go of Wang Pangzi. They ask how Wang Pangzi got into trouble and he reveals he thought the tunnel in the floor to be an excavation tunnel, maybe an exit, but before he could look more closely, he was taken by the insect. Pan Zi makes a joke but is suddenly pulled into the tunnel by the insect. Wang Pangzi goes after him but Wu Xie is held back by his uncle. Together, Wang Pangzi and Pan Zi manage to drive the giant centipede away and return to the others.

After inspecting the tunnel, Wu Sanxing notes that the tunnel was dug from the other side and they wonder where it might lead to. While everyone is ready to leave, Wu Xie wants to wait for Zhang Qiling. Chen Pi Ah Si decides to wait one night, as the wall centipedes are most active during the night, and enter the tunnel the next morning.

Xie Yuchen takes care of the smugglers and Jia Sha shows him the stolen gods, some of which are fake.

Worried about Wu Xie who cannot sleep, Wu Sanxing exchanges old memories with him until Wu Xie comments on a scar from a past event and Wu Sanxing tells him to go to sleep. Wu Xie remembers the last time they talked about the scar and why the old scar seems so much bigger now.

Once the night is over, the group climbs back out of the hole. To cover more ground they decide to split up: While Chen Pi Ah Si and Hua Heshang go in one direction, Wu Xie, Wang Pangzi and Pan Zi take another one, with Wu Sanxing and his guys taking the last route. Wang Pangzi starts wondering if Wu Sanxing is trying to get rid of them and go off on his own. They reenter the chamber with the dragon statue and sliding puzzle and encounter a broken down Chen Pi Ah Si, with Hua Heshang and Shun Zi desperate beside him. After checking his pulse, Wu Xie realizes there is none. They try to warm him up, thinking he might have no pulse due to the cold. Suddenly he wakes up again and starts choking Wu Xie.
