That Wine-Soaked Pig Still Needs Me in 2026: Black Myth Wukong Quest Guide

Hey there, fellow Destined One. It’s 2026, and I’m still wandering the stunning realms of Black Myth Wukong, uncovering secrets that GameScience lovingly buried. You think you’ve seen everything? Let me tell you about the time I stumbled upon a tipsy pig who turned out to be a royal squire... and a boss. Yes, the Drunk Pig quest, also known as the Yellow-Robed Squire saga, is one of those absurdly long, delightfully confusing side adventures that can lead you to a secret area if you’re persistent enough. So, pour yourself a non-alcoholic beverage (we need a clear head for this pig), and let me walk you through how I sobered him up, fought him, and unlocked the Kingdom of Sahali.

Finding the Drunk Pig initially felt like a cosmic prank. I warped to the Rockrest Flat Keeper’s Shrine in Chapter 2, the endlessly sprawling desert chapter. From there, I headed northeast, past a Spearbone enemy who desperately wanted to rearrange my spine, and smashed through a wooden contraption with one satisfying melee strike. And there he was: the Drunk Pig, lounging by a big rock with stone wine bottles, looking like he owned the entire wasteland.

He slurred something about needing to sober up. No quest marker, no item hint, no sympathetic bartender—just a swine with the mother of all hangovers. I asked myself, “Where in the endless sands of Chapter 2 am I supposed to find a sobriety aid?” Turns out, the game expects you to have already met the Man-In-Stone, a cranky NPC wedged between Rockrest Flat and Squall Hideout. Completing his little side task unlocks him as a merchant, and from his dusty inventory you can buy the Sobering Stone. If you skipped him like I did, you’ll be running back and forth, feeling as groggy as the pig himself.

Once I had the stone, I jogged back to my hungover friend. Did he thank me? Barely. He started rambling about meat and casually dropped the name “The Temple of Crouching Tiger.” Mysterious, right? After a quick rest at the shrine, poof—he relocated like a boozy ninja. I found him at the temple, leaning against a wall near the top stairs, looking even more pitiful. Now he wanted a Jade Lotus. A flower. Because of course, a mythical pig needs a blossom to continue his spiritual journey. Lucky for me, I hoard lotus petals from watery areas like a flower-obsessed squirrel.

After forking over the flora, he whispered clues about the Realm of Gold and a golden coin, then vanished again. What’s the next logical step? Return to the original spot, obviously. When I did, the drunken act dropped: his name changed to Yellow-Robed Squire, and he attacked with the fury of a thousand hangovers compressed into a boss fight. The battle isn’t trivial—he’s agile, hits hard, and his buzz seems to have turned into pure combat rage. But remember, you’ve sobered him up, so you can handle a sober squire.

Defeating him triggered a cutscene that unsealed a massive door, revealing the secret Kingdom of Sahali. Inside this golden desert, I faced Fuban, a unique boss that made my staff arm tremble. The reward? A powerful vessel that became a permanent fixture in my arsenal. That’s right—helping a drunk pig can net you one of the best utility items in Black Myth Wukong. The entire chain is a masterclass in FromSoftware-level obscurity, but here in 2026, we’ve got guides like this to preserve our sanity.

Here’s a quick recap for those of you who, like me, need a visual aid after too many rock-pigging adventures:
