On a site note, the kernel will choose serial console on the Fuloong
if the PMON variables novga and nokbd are both set (value does not
matter), imitating what PMON does. To switch back to VGA console unset
either of these variables in PMON and attach a USB keyboard.

BTW, testing this I think I found a bug.

If either of novga or nokbd is set, the OpenBSD bootloader still displays
its prompt on serial, but does not seem to get input from either
serial or USB if a USB keyboard is attached. Only if I disconnect the
USB keyboard, serial input starts to work. This is rather strange, and
requires some more investigation.
