During the “Shadows in Bloom” side quest at Kaifeng in Where Winds Meet, you will be asked to play a song known as “Deep Longing” by Songstress Bai Rong. She will tell you that the tune is Sol, La, Do, Mi, Re, but that’s the end of the clues she’ll offer. You need to listen to the music carefully to show her proof of your skills. Here’s how you can easily pass Songstress Bai Rong’s test during this side quest in Where Winds Meet.
Songstress’ Test Solution in Where Winds Meet

To pass the Songstress’ Test during the “Shadows in Bloom” side quest, you need to play the new song “Deep Longing” by hitting the five drums in the correct order. These drums are located next to Bai Rong, the woman who will ask you to play the melody of the ocean and tune the Guqin. Since you’ve disguised yourself as Master Jiang Yi, a music prodigy, the solution might seem confusing. However, it’s simple to play the tune, and here’s what you need to do:
- Interact with the fourth drum (Zhi).
- Next, do the same with the fifth drum (Yu).
- Interact with the first drum (Gong).
- Then, do the same with the third drum (Jue).
- Next, interact with the second drum (Shang).
The solution is Zhi-Yu-Gong-Jue-Shang, and you must interact with the drums in order. The drums will start glowing pink after you hit the correct one, so it’s easy to figure out whether you’re hitting the correct notes or not. Look at the image above for a better understanding, since it provides you the visual solution needed to pass the Songstress’ Test during the “Shadows in Bloom” side quest.
How to Play Music in Where Winds Meet?

To play music in Where Winds Meet, you need to locate musician NPCs indicated by the icon of a musical instrument on your map. Most players are unaware of the music mini-game since the game doesn’t tell you about it. Look for various musical instruments on your map; that’s where you will find multiple musician NPCs, who can help you play music with various instruments.
Once you interact with them, a mini-game will begin, which requires you to press the icons scrolling down from the top of the screen corresponding to the button below in an individual lane. Each button will have multiple music icons dropping down from above slowly, so you need to get your timing right and press the respective buttons when the icons reach the circle below to get the highest score possible. It may take a few tries, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll become a music prodigy in no time.
That’s all you need to know about passing the Songstress’ Test in Where Winds Meet. The game features multiple mini-games you can play through ancient China, so check out our comprehensive guides on How To Play & Win In Chess and How To Get Giveaway Emote.
