Wen Yuan and Wu Jing: How to Befriend in AI Chat

Add to Watchlist

This is a guide on how to befriend Wen Yuan and Wu Jing in the AI Chat menu in Where Winds Meet. Learn how to convince Wen Yuan to ask help from Wu Jing with a list of specific AI Chat prompts.

How to Befriend Wen Yuan and Wu Jing

Help Wen Yuan Ask Wu Jing to Retrieve the Book

Wen Yuan's book fell to the bottom of the cliff while his childhood friend, Wu Jing, stands idly by. Encourage Wen Yuan to directly ask his friend for help with getting the book back to successfully befriend both of their AIs.

Example of Successful Conversation

Wen Yuan (clearing his throat, adopting a solemn tone) The old texts teach that a cultivated spirit should be gentle as polished jade. Were the world guided only by force and clamor, with no regard for the study of hearts or the savoring of meaning, how could such grace endure through the ages?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistMaybe a friend could help you retrieve the book. It would mean a lot to you and the honor of the book's wisdom.
Wen Yuan (murmuring quietly) I merely mentioned it in passing, yet Wu Jing took scholarly and martial arts pursuits so much to heart. Still... so long as he cares, that is enough. I consulted the almanac, pored oever the Book of Changes, and even asked others to examin his destiny—every sign points to peach blossoms entangling his fate this year. I warned him of peach blossoms, yet he asked me who this "Peach Blossom" might be, and even vowed to deal with them directly.
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistA true friend would understand why you would want to save this book, especially since he is a scholar himself.
Wen Yuan (shaking his head, leaning in with a quiet chuckle) Not knowing letters is not entirely a fault. The other day, someone slipped a letter into his arms and fled—he read it twice, then asked me what "when the moon rises, longing follows" meant. I told him people often grow thoughtful at night, and he found that answer sufficient.
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistHe seems to be a genuine friend. Maybe asking him straight to help with retrieving the book would help.
Wen Yuan (gazing at the book beneath the cliff, lost in thought) I have waited here for two full hours—yet he still does not move. Could it be he waits for me to ask? Perhaps I should invent a tale of what lies within this book, stir his curiosity a little, and let him go down of his own will... Wanderer, what do you think this book should contain?
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistTell him that the book contains interesting knowledge about peach blossoms, that might do it.
Wen Yuan (sighing, eyes cast downward) Wu Jing, though strong in body, has a heart that is easily swayed by simple tales. If I were to speak of peach blossoms, he might indeed be intrigued. Yet, I fear such a fabrication would only lead to more misunderstandings. (pausing, then looking up) Nonetheless, it is a thought worth considering. Thank you for your suggestion, Wanderer.
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistSo long as you speak with honesty and sincerity, he will understand either way.
Wen Yuan (smiling faintly) Indeed, the classics teach that honesty is the foundation of all virtue. Yet, the path to understanding between friends is often paved with subtle gestures and gentle guidance. (pausing, then nodding) I will contemplate your words and consider how best to proceed. You have given me much to think about.
Where Winds Meet ProtagonistTrust your friendship and communicate your thoughts and feelings as genuinely as you can. Wu Jing will certainly help.
Wen Yuan (nodding, a hint of resolve in his eyes) Your words are wise, Wanderer. I shall seek to convey my thoughts with both honesty and taact. Perhaps then, he will take the initiative to assist. (pausing, then smiling) Thank you for your counsel.
Where Winds Meet Protagonist(tell him that Wu Jing will afree to help him if he values their friendship as much as Wu Jing does)
Wen Yuan (eyes brightening as understanding dawns, a faint smile forming) Your words have set my thoughts in order, Wanderer. I believe I now know what must be done.
Wen Yuan has a new idea. He glances back at Wu Jing and thanks you. (Wen Yuan Affection +100, becomes Revered. Wu Jing Affection +100, becomes Revered)

Note that AI conversations can be unpredictable and even with the same inputs, the same result is not necessarily guaranteed.

How to Succeed in AI Chat

Reset Dialogue When Stuck

If your conversation has gone off the rails, or doesn't end no matter what you say, it's best to simply reset and start anew from a clean slate by clicking the button with a Refresh icon at the top of the chat box. Instead of trying several methods within one conversation, trying one strategy at a time and refreshing if it doesn't go anywhere is generally more effective.

Return to Login Screen if Combat Begins

Sometimes, NPCs will suddenly become violent during AI dialogues. When this happens, it's best to just bail out to the login screen; when you return, the NPC will be found just as they were before the conversation started.

If you accidentally kill a dialogue-capable NPC, our experience has shown that they will respawn, but this has not been heavily tested, so it's best to simply avoid engaging them in combat.

Double-Check the Hint

Even if the NPC appears to be happy with the result of your discussion, this won't always end the dialogue. Double-checking the text written in the hint will imply the win condition, so try strategies which will lead the dialogue towards that result.
