Speak with the Peasant
After getting rid of the bandits, approach the peasant to speak with him.
Follow Hanaoka

On your way, you’ll make Homyo’s acquaintance. Talk to her.
Check on Homyo’s Son
Now enter the building behind Homyo to check on her sick son.
Search for the Cause of the Sickness
Now it’s time to investigate the place for clues that lead to the cause of the sickness. In the house, investigate the basket by the fireplace and the pot by the son. Now, go outside and investigate the mushrooms on the fallen log by the thatched roof.
Return to Hanaoka
Now simply get back into the building to speak with Hanaoka.
Reach the River
Now reach the nearby river (marked by the yellow magnifying lens on your map) to gather some moss.
Gather River Moss
At the river, approach the river moss to collect it.
Return to Hanaoka
Now return to Hanaoka to give him the moss. He’ll cure the son.
Follow Hanaoka
Return to your horse and ride with Hanaoka until you’ll automatically dismount your horse to face some Mongols by a lake.
Defeat the Mongols
Approach the lake to defeat the Mongols. Switch between the Stone and the Water Stance to get rid of these enemies. They’re mostly swordsmen and shielded ones.
Rejoin Hanaoka
After eliminating the Mongols, regroup with Hanaoka by the lake shore.
Follow Hanaoka
