In the midst of the battle, Ling'er's arrow hits nian-bing, who's in a panic. He can't believe what's happened, and he curses the entire group. He asks for the vest that he gave , but they refuse to give it to him. He curses all of them, and the group retreats inside the cave. He blames himself for the whole thing. He says that if he had listened to Ling's advice to give up the mission, he would have taken everyone with him, and they would have all been spared the death trap. He also says that he lost his right arm in the fight, and that he'll have to use his left hand to cook.
