Siduo and Linxu discuss what should be done after the water has receded, and Siduo suggests that they sell linxu into the City of Salvation. Siduo says that they were just joking, and that they also apologized to Linxutu, but that he was angry and even threatened to kill them all. He killed auntie because she tried to save him, Siduo admits, but he doesn't blame linxutu for killing auntie because he was treated with kindness by auntie.
