Lan WangJi refuses to be carried and continues to walk off. As Wei WuXian still worries, he creates a paper doll to speak with Wen Qing secretly and asks for a short break. After the break, they are still unable to find the cave and Wei WuXian then uses his powers to locate it. While inside, they find the bottom of the cave and Wen Chao wants a sacrifice to be the bait for the beast. When Wang LingJiao suggests for MianMian, Jin ZiXuan and Lan WangJi step in to protect her. This angers Wen Chao and he orders for the disciples to be killed. This give Wei WuXian an opportunity to recite one of Wen sect's rules to Wen Chao and the latter scolds that it is absurd. Wei WuXian retorts back that this is the words of Wen Mao and Wen Chao has broken one of their own rules, which results in a death penalty. The fight then continues and awakens the beast that is sleeping. The Wen sect escapes, cuts off the escape ropes and blocks the cave with rocks. Luckily, another opening is found below the waters and the remaining disciples escape. As Wei WuXian needs to hold off the beast, he is unable to run away. Lan WangJi subsequently saves him from a blow and the both of them are then left behind to wait for rescue. While they warm up by the fire, Wei WuXian tends to Lan WangJi's wound, even using his sacred headband as a rope for the makeshift leg cast. (Source: Wikipedia)
