Those men that had them locked up had warned them about running away at night as they will get eaten by wild animals but he had brother Lu with him so, he did not fear the stories they told them to scare them from escaping.
He continued running with the young man's hand holding his so tightly as well as reassuringly for so long he could not estimate.
The man did not stop and although he was tired and cold, he could not complain as he was grateful enough that the man remembered to take him when he wanted to escape or he would have been locked up in that room forever as those men told him.
He was barefooted and he could feel the tiring pain that came with every step he took and yet he did not cry as he could only wince to make the man take them as far as they can go from that house.
When the man finally stopped he could rest his feet but he did not want to appear as tired as he felt so that he does not get abandoned in the woods.
