I'm sure this is unrelated, but there's a part of the Guilin section where Ryo is leading, and his attention is caught by a sign post. Shenhua takes the lead again at this part, but Ryo hesitates, still looking at the sign post. Shenhua urges Ryo on, and when you can control Ryo again, Ryo won't let you go back to the signpost.
Do we have any ideas at all what that signpost said? I can't imagine what could be written on the signpost apart from Bailu Village that would have prompted such an interest from Ryo.
