Accompanied by Xiao Qi once again, Wufu recuperated in the Ancient Tomb for another day to regain some strength before leaving.
Borrowing someone else's sacred place to give birth, Wufu tactfully refrained from disturbing their tomb. Before departure, she knelt on the ground holding Little Bun and kowtowed three times towards the coffin as a gesture of gratitude.
Overall, the condition of the mother and child was not especially good, but they were alive, and that was more important than anything.
Xiao Qi first skillfully climbed out of the Ancient Tomb, then, following Wufu's instructions, grabbed some vines and tied them into a vine rope. Wufu used Xiao Qi's clothes as a sling to strap Little Bun to her chest. With the vine rope tied around her waist, and with Xiao Qi's help—one pulling, the other tugging—they expended considerable effort to finally emerge from the high cave of the Ancient Tomb.
