Having found Liu He, Mu Shi informed him, "We're running for our lives, not playing. Ask them to throw away anything burdening them. Ask them to carefully consider if they want their lives or money. Also, I'll leave with my wife and children in half an hour. Whether they can catch up will depend on their ability. I won't stop and wait for them." Mu Shi looked at him seriously and said, "I'm not my father and mother. My wife and children are very weak. I'll be with them every step of the way."
In other words, Mu Shi would not sacrifice himself for the sake of Nearhill Village like Mu Yan.
Liu He's expression changed. He looked at him with a complicated expression and said, "Don't worry. I'll get someone to inform them to prepare to escape immediately."
