goes underground

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'hides' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'folds worn-down' is the wordplay.
'folds' becomes 'goes under' (I've seen this in another clue).
'worn down' becomes 'ground' (ground down).
'goesunder'+'ground'='GOES UNDERGROUND'

Can you help me to learn more?
