How to Help the Yellow-cloaked Squire in Chapter 2 of Black Myth: Wukong

Part of the road through “Yellow Windback, Black Myth: WukongIn the second chapter, you come across an open area with a drunken warthog on the ground. This is the Yellow-clad squireand he needs a little help. If you do, you will be rewarded with the Wind Tamer vessel.

In this Black Myth: Wukong guide, we’ll explain where to find the Yellow-cloaked Page, how to sober him up, and where to chase him around the world so you can reach the secret area.

To get to the Sobering stone — the item you need to help the Yellow-Robed Squire — you must first make your way through the Crouching Tiger Temple. On the other side, you will unlock the Windrest Bridge Shrine in the area of ​​the Yellow Wind Formation.

Cross the bridge and turn left. Eventually you will come to a dead end, so turn right and go up the stairs and through the threshold (pictured above). An enemy rat will jump from the roof and attack you. Defeat the rat and look to your left. You will see an enemy in the distance spitting projectiles at you. Kill the enemy and then immediately look to your right. In a small alcove you will see a glowing pot. Roll through it or hit the pot to collect the Sobering Stone.

Remark: If you get here and the Sobering Stone doesn’t appear in the pot, first go to the Yellow-Robed Squire and talk to him. If you need help finding him, see the next section of this guide. Alternatively, if you’ve unlocked the Man-In-Stone shop in Fright Cliff, you can also purchase a Sobering Stone from him.

Once you have the Sobering Stone, complete chapter 2making sure to completely clear both the tiger and cliff paths leading to the final boss (this includes defeating the First Prince of Flowing Sands boss in the cave to the left of the “Valley of Despair” shrine). When you start Chapter 3, you’ll travel back to the Rockrest Flat Shrine in Angst Cliff.

When you load up, go around the rock and go right. You’ll see two undead porcupine enemies. Skip the first one and go to the second one in the distance. Kill it, then roll through the wooden gate behind it. You’ll be in a large area with a large door on the right. An anthropomorphic warthog will be in the middle of the area – the Yellow-clad squire. Talk to him and deliver the Sobering Stone to complete his quest. Once he’s sobered up, he’ll tell you he’s on his way to get some food. Talk to him some more and he’ll tell you he’s on his way to the Temple of the Crouching Tiger.

Travel to the “Temple entrance” Shrine in the Crouching Tiger Temple. From there, walk up the stairs to the third landing – the one before you reach the top. To your right you’ll find an alcove and the warthog. Talk to him and he’ll complain about the rat meat, saying it’s disgusting. He’ll then ask for a tasty treat: Jade Lotus. At this point in the game – assuming you’ve been picking up plants when you see them – you should have plenty of Jade Lotus to offer. If not, explore the world a bit and pick up plants until you find some. Talk to him again to deliver the Jade Lotus.

The Yellow-Robed Squire will then tell you a cryptic message about the realm of god and the setting sun. If you continue talking to him, he will say that he is on his way to the “right place” to use a piece of gold that he got from his older brother. You will have to find him again.

Back to where you first met the Yellow-cloaked Page and you’ll find him on the right, by the stairs. Based on our testing, you’ll need to complete Chapter 2, defeat the Yellow Wind Guai, and get the Arhat Gold Piece from the First Prince of Flowing Sands to progress through this part of the quest.

If you approach the warthog under the right circumstances, he will ask you where you got his brother’s gold piece and attack you. Once you defeat the Yellow-Robed Squire mini-boss, you will earn the Snout maskand he will lead you to the secret realm for chapter 2. Follow him through the door to enter.

Once you follow the Yellow-Robed Squire through the door, he’ll tell you about the desert area you’re in and the giant beetle hiding in the sand. Remember that echo of a giant sand monster that the Yellow Wind Guai would occasionally summon to crush you? Time to take that thing out.

When the warthog has finished its story, you regain control of the Secret: Kingdom of Sahali area. Activate the nearby “Sandgate Pass” Shrine and proceed. A Tiger miniboss called the Tiger Vanguard will block your path. Dispatch him to earn the Tiger Tally Curio before heading to the wider area. Open the chest in the building to your left for some rare materials, then activate the second Shrine of this area, “Sandgate Bound.”

When you’re ready, approach the Yellow Wind Guai standing on the edge of the ridge next to the drum. After a short cutscene, he’ll summon the beetle boss. Drop down and play defense until he emerges from the sand. Once he surfaces, attack Fuban‘s hands until you see another cutscene and can climb on his head to steal an item from the statue that’s attached to his shield. Once you free the statue’s eye, the Yellow Wind Guai will jump down and help you finish off Fuban. As you know from the end of Chapter 2, the Yellow Wind Guai is no joke, and the two of you will need to make quick work of Fuban while working together.

Once Fuban is down, the Yellow Wind Guai will teleport you out of the secret realm and give you the Wind Tamer Vessel. This thing will passively increase your damage reduction while you have it equipped, and you can activate it to drastically improve that effect for a short period of time. Like in the first chapter, you can return to any of the Shrines in the Secret Realm by using the fast travel system.
