Damage to Link

When Wallmaster carries Link off, he starts again at the entrance he last came in through and loses 16 points, 1 heart, once he is back (8 points with Double Defense). Falling into a pit costs the same.

Drops

When Wallmaster is defeated, the game picks one of 16 slots at random, so each slot is a 1 in 16 chance. Some slots hold nothing.

ItemCountChance
Blue Rupee37 in 16
Red Rupee17 in 16
Red Rupee32 in 16

Young Link gets Deku Seeds where adult Link gets arrows, and the other way round, and an adult's Deku Stick turns into a green Rupee. Bombs, arrows, seeds, and magic only drop once Link has the bomb bag, the bow, the slingshot, or magic, and a recovery heart at full health turns into a green Rupee.

In the official guides

A giant hand that drops from the ceiling and sends Link back to the dungeon entrance. When a dark shadow appears on the floor, jump aside, then cut it.

床に落ちたカゲに気をつけて!天井にもどる前に倒すのよ!

Drops from the ceiling; keep moving when its shadow appears.

By watching for shadows, Link was able to evade it.
