1. Tap anywhere. The two fish will swim up to Yixiu and wake him up. Pick up his luggage.

2. Tap his knapsack to look at the painting inside and make sure it’s safe.

3. Follow the carp to Moyan. It will wake him. Send Yixiu to Moyan to see if he’s ok. He has a tail!

4. Climb the vines. Climb the stairs. Pick up the stone shard and then meet Miaoshan.

5. Open your knapsack and drag the painting to Miaoshan. He gives you the Skandha Brush. You can now paint things around you!

6. Feel free to read the sign to the left and then head up the stairs to the right. Pick up the maple leaf and continue up to the tree.

7. Use the maple leaf on the maple tree to turn it red. Then go back and report to Master Miaoshan. Take a look at his painting.

8. Now you need to repair the brush. First, head right and eventually a new scene will load.

9. Head left and tap on Miaoshan. They’ll all discuss the woman playing music. Then follow him back to the studio and talk to him again.

10. Head to the backyard. Tap the seal workbench. It will explain how to paint a seal. Paint one. It seems you can probably change it later.

    IΓÇÖve come to the point where IΓÇÖm instructed to tap the frame, but it seems nothing happens no matter where I tap!

      It is because the frame you think is not the “frame” master talks about. Go to left side of the room and tap semisphere frame. Instructor will then give further instructions. Chinese masters, including my high school teacher, like use such small trick to help his student learn. LOL Hope you like this game.

        Ok what about the missing collectable for chapter 2? It looks like it might be shoe or… idk a gourd maybe? I canΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗t tell just by the silhouette. IΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗ve played the chapter over and over and canΓò¼├┤Γö£├ºΓö£├╗t find it, I just keep tapping everywhere on the screen and hoping for the best.

          ItΓÇÖs definitely a shoe, JingweiΓÇÖs shoe from the end cutscene. Another site says the shoe is near the first underwater shrine but I simply canΓÇÖt find it either.

        When you say room, are you speaking of the outside area where they are standing or inside the area where we painted the seal. I can only go back & forth between the seal creation space and the outdoor space where the painting tables are. What is the semi sphere you speak of?

      I was just googling this because I was stuck too, which is why this response is so late. I didnΓÇÖt find the answer but I figured it out. You have to get back into the house, but the approach is so tricky and no one is explaining how to do it so: From the seal-maker, go to the right of the screen a bit, and then start tapping in the foreground so that the characters are walking directly towards you. Just keep tapping and walking towards yourself, and you should get back in.

    I canΓÇÖt go anywhere after I create my seal. When I go back to the 2 guys by the tables. I can move them around but not far because they are surrounded by water. IΓÇÖm stuck between going back to paint the seal and the guys standing around the tables. Pleas help? TIA

      I was just googling this because I was stuck too! I didnΓÇÖt find the answer but I figured it out. You have to get back into the house, but the approach is so tricky that it doesnΓÇÖt seem like an option. So. From the seal-maker, go to the right of the screen a bit, and then start tapping in the foreground so that the characters are walking directly towards you. Just keep tapping and walking towards yourself, and you should get back in.
