The next morning, Aoofei asks how his injury is. He tells him that they have to get rid of the "eccentric tree" before they can do any more damage. He also tells them that the tree is left "unguarded" and that they should gather their forces there. He then tells them to open their hands to receive gifts from the God. The one who has an injury on his hand should be the one who followed him the night before. He asks if there is something in his hand that cannot be presented to anyone else. He says that if he opens his hands, the injury will fall off his hand and he will not be able to receive his gifts. He warns them that he may doubt their loyalty to the God and asks if they have any injuries on their hands. They all agree that there is no injury. They then go after the man who followed them. He is gone and they must catch him.
