Closer look
Young Master Lan and Lan Manor
Provided you told Young Master Lan how the tunnel in the Village of Lu was opened, he waits on the road opposite the bell and presents the Lan Manor Key once you draw near. Should you need to, rest at any bell, come back to that spot, beat the enemies there and talk to him again before going into the manor. The Young Master Lan tale ends, and the A Wanderer's Honor trophy unlocks, when you enter the manor after the cutscene.
You can miss this. The conversation in the Village of Lu must take place before you set foot in Pangzhen.
Pavilion of Knowledge Rooftop Key
Go into the huge building to the right of the bell and beat all the enemies as you climb the tower. At the top is a key whose teeth are shaped like the Qian trigram; it opens the pavilion's highest level and works on the door close by.
Child of Insight
Atop a building near the bell is a Child of Insight, and two tales conclude at this spot.
| Name | Details |
|---|---|
| Four Fierce Axes | a guarded building beside the crossroads leads onto the roof. When the tale's required documents and volumes have all been collected, unlock the door nearby and talk to the Child of Insight; the payment is the Blood Oath Dagger, which tempers Dread Axe. |
| Xue, Admirer of Heroes | bring back the fallen heroes' items from Mandate Encampment and talk to the Child of Insight to have the Heroes' Belongings identified. You are rewarded with the Sha-Chi Headscarf accessory. |
Boss fight with Cavalrybane, Elite Shadow Warden
Expect a clash right by this crossroads. You take Armybreaker, a main weapon, off him, and he supplies one of three Shadow Warden kills that the Three Wardens Fall trophy demands. A staircase inside the building past the arena heads down to Myst's Tavern. Starting from the arena, upstairs to the right is a Memory Flower, whereas a chest with a Blackstone Fragment sits in the small courtyard to the left.
Pickups and loot
Items to collect
| Name | Details |
|---|---|
| Sha-Chi Amber Fragment | leave the bell by climbing the stairs and winding through the alleys, then step out on the balcony of the right-hand building and walk along it until you reach the chest at its end. |
Routes and movement
Getting to the pavilion
Along the main path across Pangzhen, you go by Jingyang Hall, the Marketplace and Huang Manor Crossroads first. Past the Huang Manor Crossroads Bell, go up the right-hand staircase, and another flight of steps brings you to the Pavilion of Knowledge Crossroads Bell.
