I have been going through the Guilin section of Shenmue II very carefully, listening to what Shenhua has to say in conversations, and admiring the beautiful scenery of each path. When you reach her house you take the long path up the hill, which appears to be on the mountains edge, and what seemingly is a straight and linear path with no where to turn off.
In Shenhuas house, there is 1 side door and this is the door through which Ryo and Shenhua leave through to go to the Stone Pit. To get to the stone pit, they both take the Cloud Birds trail directly to theStone pit. Again this is a linear path with no turn offs at all which leads to the entrance to the Stone Pit.
So my question is simple, how will Ryo get to Bailu Village? We learn from Shenhua that her house is on the edge of the village, but how exactly will Ryo get there from Shenhuas house/Stone Pit? Perhaps the modders could shed some light on any paths we may have missed through cut scenes? If there is none, i guess the travel will be covered up by a cutscene at the beginning of Shenmue III.
