"You said I was asleep for many days? What time is today? How long has it been since I fell into a coma?"
But soon, she realized the hidden message in Xiao's words and began to question him.
"It has been more than a month since you fell into a coma." Hearing Nashida's question, Xiao held his head and began to recall what had happened during this period.
"During this period, it was all thanks to Master Fengshen. If he hadn't stayed by your bedside day and night and taken good care of you, the Emperor and I wouldn't have been able to leave so easily, and we wouldn't have had the chance to find this elixir for you."
Xiao's narration was very detailed. He directly told Nashida all the major events that had happened in Liyue during this period, and also mentioned Venti's care for Nashida many times.
In his understanding, the Wind God of Mond is an extremely benevolent god who helped him alleviate the pain caused by his karma thousands of years ago.
Now that Lord Grass God is suddenly invaded by an unknown poisonous creature, I guess he takes such good care of her because of his love for his younger generation.
"So so many big things happened... Wait! You said Senior Wendy took care of me for a month?"
Suddenly, Nashida, who was still thinking about the current situation, suddenly realized something and quickly raised her head to look at Xiao who was confused.
"Yes…"
After receiving a positive answer, Nashida hurriedly closed her eyes and felt the changes in her body.
Only after seeing that hint of green element did she give up struggling and sit down on the ground with a look of despair on her face.
"It's over. Such a strong wind elemental force must not be injected from outside. It must be generated by myself."
She had taken all kinds of precautions, but she couldn't have prevented Wendy from doing this to her. What should she do now?
Looking at the Cecilia Buddha flower that appeared on her dress, Nashida could only rub her skirt helplessly and reluctantly accepted it.
Anyway, as long as Wendy doesn't fake her death, the worst that can happen to her is that she won't go to Mondstadt.
As for the symbol of Dodemora and the Cecilia flower, just pretend you don’t see them??!
Wait, where did this Mora come from? Shouldn’t the symbol of her authority over the rock element be yellow sand?
"Okay, okay, my two dear seniors, I was wondering why my tea was swapped right under my nose. So this is why."
Feeling the power of the rock element in her body becoming inexplicably much stronger, Nashida smiled lovelyly.
"Xiao, do you know where Senior Zhongli and Senior Venti went?"
Although the smile was very cute and the tone was friendly, for some reason, Xiao saw something different in this smile.
"Lord Wind God left yesterday, and the Emperor has also disappeared after handing me the elixir."
Under Nashida's kind gaze, Xiao immediately told her what he knew.
But unfortunately, these two gods seem to be very busy at the moment and cannot come to meet Nashida.
"Okay, I see."
After learning that the two seniors were gone, the smile on Nashida's face became even brighter, even making Xiao feel a little uncomfortable.
"Xiao, thank you for taking care of me. Now that I have recovered, I will not bother you anymore."
After jumping off the bed and thanking Xiao again, Nashida walked straight towards the door and pushed it open.
"Lord Grass God, you just woke up. Where are you going?"
Xiao was a little confused by this sudden change, but he still dutifully reminded Nashida.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything dangerous. I'm just going to Guiliyuan."
After saying this, regardless of Xiao's dissuasion, Nashida took off into the air and headed towards the south of Dihuazhou.
And there is where ancient Liyue is—Guiliyuan.
Chapter 187: War Never Changes
"kill!"
With shouts of killing echoing all around, a small skirmish was going on fiercely in a canyon in Chenyu Valley.
Both sides of the battle were wearing similar armor, and the soldiers all had yellow skin and black eyes. If you didn't look at the temporary straps on their arms, it would be difficult to tell the difference between the soldiers on both sides.
From their similar clothing and fighting skills, it is not difficult to tell that these soldiers who are fighting each other once belonged to a common force, but for some unknown reason, these soldiers who were once as close as brothers can now only point their swords at their former comrades.
Since the equipment, techniques and tactics of both sides were almost the same, this small-scale battle lasted unexpectedly long. It was a stalemate that lasted for most of the day before the balance of victory gradually tilted towards one side.
"Retreat! Everyone retreat immediately!"
Finally, after holding out for a while, the smaller side began to be unable to withstand the gradually accumulating disadvantages on the battlefield, and the originally neat formation began to disintegrate.
Seeing this situation, in order to avoid greater casualties, the commander of the disadvantaged side decisively issued an order to retreat, commanding the soldiers to gradually retreat.
"Everyone, reorganize your team and stop the pursuit immediately!"
But when the disadvantaged party began to retreat, as if there was a tacit understanding between the two sides, the advantaged party did not take advantage of the situation to launch a pursuit, but instead began to rest on the spot.
And just like that, after lasting a whole day, this little encounter finally came to an end.
Compared to before the battle broke out, the attackers successfully made a small step forward towards their goal.
...
That night, in the military camp at the entrance of the canyon, a middle-aged man in military uniform was looking at the documents in his hands, without saying a word for a long time.
I saw that the title of the document in his hand, "Casualty Report" was in the most conspicuous position, and below this line of title was a densely packed list.
"If this continues, what will we do?"
Looking through the list in his hand that is updated every day, as the commander of this army, the man's mood at the moment can be said to be very complicated.
As a pure soldier, he did not understand politics, but in his opinion, this damn war should not have broken out, and so many lives should not have been sacrificed in this meaningless civil war.
"Damn it, they should have a better life, but now..."
Putting down the document in his hand, he finally couldn't bear to finish reading it.
For him, a soldier who had sworn to serve Liyue, watching such a thing was still too cruel, especially since both sides had been his subordinates, the feeling of grief was even more profound.
That’s right, this man is Lin Xiao, the former chief instructor of the Thousand Rocks Army stationed in Yilongbu, and also the commander-in-chief of the military forces in the Chenyu Valley area of Liyue.
But when Emperor Geohu fell and Liyue became torn apart, he, a loyal soldier in charge of military power, unsurprisingly became a thorn in the eyes and flesh of all parties.
In the eyes of those forces that want to establish their own territories, he, a soldier loyal to Liyue Harbor, is undoubtedly the biggest obstacle on their way to the pinnacle of power.
Therefore, after controlling several "qualified persons", they almost immediately chose to attack Lin Xiao.
Helplessly, in order to protect himself and for the safety of the soldiers, Lin Xiao had no choice but to surrender to these ambitious people.
After he surrendered, the initial situation in Chenyu Valley did stabilize as he had expected, and they were even able to unite and publicly declare independence from Liyue Harbor.
But unfortunately, due to uneven distribution of the spoils or for some other reasons, the peaceful days in Chenyu Valley did not last long.
After many fruitless negotiations, several qualified people from Chenyu Valley tore up the agreement they had just signed, occupied a piece of Chenyu Valley's territory respectively, and began to attack each other again.
Lin Xiao, who had extensive experience in military command, was forcibly recalled by the qualified person who occupied Yilongbu after the war broke out again, and was forced to help him command the army.
This is why Lin Xiao appeared here and why he was so sad.
In his eyes, whether they were his own soldiers or the enemy's, they were all his former subordinates.
Now, just for the interests of these aristocratic families, they have to turn against each other and turn their weapons against their former comrades. No wonder this tough soldier would sigh inwardly here.
"report!"
Suddenly, just as Lin Xiao was about to continue reading the casualty report, a report from outside the tent interrupted his action.
"Come in!" After putting down the documents in his hand and straightening his sad expression, Lin Xiao decided to let the person outside the tent in.
As the commander of this army, he couldn't let anyone see his weak side.
"Master Lin, there is an order from Yilongbu, ordering your army to march out immediately and capture Qiaoyingzhuang within seven days at all costs."
The messenger who entered the tent first saluted Lin Xiao, and then handed the ruthless order to him.
"What a mess! The army just went through several bloody battles not long ago. How long have they rested? How can they launch another offensive?"
After reading the full text of the order and making sure that he had not made any mistakes, Lin Xiao crumpled up the paper and threw it heavily to the ground.
"However, this order was issued directly by the Qualified One, and the wording was very harsh."
Seeing that Lin Xiao was unwilling to obey the order, the messenger did not seem to be in a hurry, but slowly took out a token.
After seeing the token, Lin Xiao, who had been extremely angry just now, was immediately poured with a bucket of cold water and calmed down immediately.
"Ah~ I'll make the arrangements, please go back."
After sending off the messenger who delivered the order, Lin Xiao could only sit back in his chair helplessly.
Facing the qualified persons who represented the power of gods, and the aristocratic families standing behind them, he had almost no chance of winning alone. No matter how unwilling he was in his heart, he was forced to obey.
In this situation, the only thing he could do was to delay time as much as possible to reduce unnecessary casualties.
"But there is still hope, Mr. Lin Xiao. There is still hope."
Suddenly, just as Lin Xiao was about to pass on the order, a pleasant female voice came from the side, making him stop what he was doing.
Turning his head, he saw a tall woman suddenly appear in his tent.
