Humph, she is obviously the best and cutest companion. Traveler is always like this when he sees a pretty girl!
"Nice to meet you. My name is Nashida. I'm lost in the rain forest. Can you two kind people help me?"
The mysterious girl's smile is very sweet, but if you look closely, you can find that this lovely smile seems to contain a hint of "joy"?
Chapter 103: Suppressing Bandits
"Of course... my name is Ying, this is Paimon, little sister Nashida, where is your home? Let us escort you back."
Hearing the other party's request for help, Ying agreed without any hesitation, and walked forward enthusiastically and took the other party's hand.
"Traveler, why are you like this again? Even if she looks so pitiful, you can't be so unguarded towards a stranger. Just agree to it."
Seeing Ying being so intimate with the other person, Paimon suddenly became unhappy and stepped forward to hold Ying's other hand.
"Thank you Sister Ying for your help." Nashida showed a lovely smile on her face, and her soft voice made Ying feel happy.
"Ying, please listen to me." But this immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of Paimeng on the side, causing her to hold Ying's arm and shake.
Seeing Paimon's cute reaction, Nashida couldn't help but smile again and joked to the two of them, "You two have such a good relationship."
"Of course, I am her best friend."
In response, Paimon puffed out his chest with pride, feeling proud that the other party acknowledged his status.
"Okay Paimon, stop making a fuss. I didn't say you're not my partner anymore. She's just a lost kid. Why are you mad at her?"
Ying felt a bit troubled by Paimon's protective look of the food and had to step out to comfort him.
"That's right. Then I, Paimon, will mercifully agree to let you hold the traveler's hand."
Fortunately, Paimeng was not an unreasonable person. Seeing that Ying was giving her a way out, she took the opportunity to end the topic.
After resolving Paimon's concerns, Nashida naturally joined the team of the two and embarked on the journey to Xumi City with them.
"By the way, Nashida, where are your parents? Why did they leave you alone in this rain forest?"
However, along the way, Paimon's chattering was inevitable, and he kept asking Nashida all kinds of questions.
"Well, I don't have a mother."
Theoretically, Nashida's mother should be the World Tree, so there is no "mother" in the physiological sense.
"What about your father?"
Hearing Nashida's reply, Paimon couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked quickly.
"I don't have a father either."
A sense of evil humor came over Nashida, and she couldn't help but want to make fun of this emergency food.
“Ah? This…this!”
Apparently, the effect was successful.
...
"Hello, do you know where Beloberg is? This child is lost and needs to find his way home."
After two days of companionship, Nashida successfully deepened her relationship with the two men, and now they can be considered friends.
During this time, Ying kept asking passers-by about the place she made up, trying to send her home.
Of course, with her appearance, the people of Xumi widened their eyes when they saw her, but with the help of her secret voice transmission, people still held back their expressions and told Ying that they didn't know.
After all, this place name cannot appear in Teyvat, otherwise it will be really doomed.
"Oh, another person who doesn't know. Is there really such a place in Xumi? Nashida, are you remembering it correctly?"
After asking for directions again without success, Paimon felt a little depressed. Ever since she asked that question two days ago, she had been wanting to help Nashida find her way home all the time.
Otherwise, her fragile little heart could not withstand such torture of guilt.
"It doesn't matter. My hometown is in a very, very far place. It took me a long time to wander here. It doesn't matter if I can't find it for a while."
Giving Paimon a nice smile, Nashida comforted her a little so that she wouldn't be too sad.
Then, Ying, who had been silent for a while, suddenly asked a question and expressed some of his doubts to Nashida.
"Nashida, do you know what's happened to Xumi recently? Why did we see so many troops along the way?"
Although he already knew that Xumi had just fought a civil war, what he saw and heard along the way still made Ying feel a little confused.
The reason is simple, it's just that there are too many armed men along the way, and even from their performance, it's obvious that they are going to participate in the battle.
But hasn’t Xumi’s civil war ended? Is there anything else to fight for?
"As for this question, as far as I know, they should all be soldiers of the Xumi Renaissance Army, and they are now carrying out orders to suppress bandits in various places in Xumi."
After the Renaissance Alliance seized power, the first problem that faced everyone was the poor security situation in Xumi.
After all, Xumi's gilded brigades were already numerous, and now they had experienced the chaos of regime change. A large number of the armed forces of the Order of the Church were defeated in the war, and naturally there were more bandits and illegal armed forces in the countryside.
Therefore, in order to protect the safety of people’s lives and property and for the healthy development of the Xumi country, the Renaissance Alliance decisively decided to launch an anti-bandit campaign throughout Xumi.
Therefore, the soldiers who had just completely liberated Xumi only took a short rest and then immediately launched a new round of combat.
Faced with the complex situation in Quan Xumi, the Central Alliance also prepared detailed combat plans based on the actual conditions in various places.
Although the plan is very complicated, if it can be described in one sentence, it is to take advantage of the people's support for the new Xumi, surround these bandits in a grid pattern, and then gradually defeat them one by one.
This strategy also resulted in Ying always being able to see war scenes no matter where she went along the way.
"But from what those people just said, we know that the fortified city in the eastern part of Xumi is ahead. We shouldn't encounter so many dangers in the future."
According to the plan of the Renaissance Alliance, the bandit suppression work in the entire Xumi was divided into several areas, and Huachengguo was the bandit suppression headquarters of one of the areas, so it was naturally extremely safe.
Of course, Nashida was somewhat resistant to this unlucky name at first.
But in a short period of time, she couldn't come up with any good reason to refute everyone's puzzled looks, so she just went with the name.
After listening to Nashida's explanation, Ying thought about it for a moment, and combined it with what he had heard from passers-by. He quickly figured out the cause and effect of everything in his mind, and did not continue to dwell on this issue.
"Then let's speed up. There are so many people in Huachengguo, someone should know Nashida's origins."
Hearing that they were about to reach the town, Paimeng, who had been living in the open air since leaving Liyue, became very excited. He flew directly to the front and started flying in the direction pointed by the passerby.
Ying naturally had no objection to this. Then, amid Nashida's screams, she carried her on her back and followed Paimon's movements.
Chapter 104 Social Reform
"Speaking of which, Nashida, since you are from Xumi, do you know the Little Auspicious Grass King? Can you tell us what kind of god she is?"
As if remembering something, Paimon, who was flying in front, suddenly turned around and asked Nashida who was sitting on the traveler's shoulder.
After all, with the interruption of Nashida these days, they almost forgot why they came to Xumi. They even arrived at Huachenggu before they remembered that they still had to look for someone.
"Little Lucky Grass King? Well, Nashida doesn't know." Hearing Paimon's question, Nashida subconsciously put her finger on her lips, as if she was thinking hard.
"But she should be a very majestic god. What are you looking for her for?"
After a brief silence, Nashida gave her opinion, but for some reason, her tone seemed to become a little heavier when she mentioned the word majesty.
"This is quite important to Ying. Since we are already good friends, let me talk to you about it."
He first glanced at Ying, and after getting a look of permission, Paimon told Nashida about their past experiences.
After all, she is the other party's best friend. She will still pay a little attention to such issues concerning personal privacy. Otherwise, if Ying doesn't want her anymore, who will cook for her?
"It's like this, like this, and like this. That's it."
As expected of the Mouth of God, the originally somewhat lengthy story became much more interesting in her mouth. Even Nashida, who already knew the plot, listened to it with great interest.
"So you came to Xumi to look for the god in order to get information about your lost relatives from her?"
Flying back to Ying's side, Paimon began to chat with Nashida in mid-air.
"That's right, but I don't know what this god's personality is like and whether he is easy to talk to."
As she was speaking, Paimon suddenly sighed. It seemed that the journey to the previous three kingdoms had caused her to suffer from PTSD towards the gods of Teyvat.
"Don't be too discouraged. I've heard from others that she is a very gentle god."
Nashida stretched out her little hand and touched Paimon's little head floating in the air with a smile.
However, being gentle or not is one thing, and whether or not to cheat others is another.
...
Not long after, after chatting along the way, the three of them soon arrived at Huachengguo, the gateway city to the east of Xumi.
"Finally we see a place where people live. Ying, Nashida, hurry up and follow us."
After several rounds of counseling from Narcida, and after so many days of sleeping in the open air, Paimon finally regained his lively self and rushed forward after finally seeing the joy of the town.
"This guy is really something. How can he not control himself when he sees food?"
Turning his head slightly to look back and upward, after seeing Nashida's smile, Ying followed while complaining about Paimon.
"There are so many houses hanging on the trees. Do the people of Xumi like to live in trees so much?"
As soon as they entered the territory of Huacheng, what caught their eyes were the rows of houses hidden in the shade of trees, which surprised the two people who had never been there before.
But in addition to these tree houses, some unique scenes of the city also attracted their attention at once.
"Once the concept changes, the world will become wider and social reform will open a new chapter."
"Work together with one heart and one mind, and do our best for the people."
I saw rows and rows of banners hanging on the streets of Huachengguo, with some strange propaganda slogans written on them.
"Eliminate all exploiting classes, and Mount Sumeru will belong to all the people."
Take this sentence for example. Although from the literal meaning, Ying can still roughly guess what it means.
But this way of using words and constructing sentences was something she had never experienced before.
At least in Mondstadt, Liyue and Inazuma, she had never seen such an expression.
"Are you new visitors? Xumi welcomes you."
As if they noticed Ying and Paimon looking around, several members of the Restoration Army who were patrolling the streets came forward and greeted the three of them.
Of course, after entering the densely populated area, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Nashida did not forget to add a layer of cognitive filter to herself.
In the eyes of Ying and Paimon, Nashida is still the little girl with white hair and green eyes, but in the eyes of others, she has now changed into an ordinary person.
"Yes, this is also our first time in Xumi. Looking at the slogans you have posted everywhere and the lively atmosphere, I am really surprised."
Just like in the past, when facing strangers, it was still Paimon who took over the conversation.
But judging from her tone, even she, who claimed to be the best guide in Teyvat, was a little confused about Xumi's current situation.
Today shouldn’t be an important holiday, so why are the streets so busy?
"Oh, you mean those slogans? There weren't any of them before, but now that the new Xumi has been established, the old society is being reformed everywhere, so they were added."
Seeing Paimon's puzzled look, several soldiers couldn't help but laugh and introduced to her the changes in Xumi.
Since the establishment of New Xumi and the Renaissance Alliance took over power, corresponding social reform plans have been implemented.
Judging from the content of the plan, it can be mainly divided into three parts, namely agriculture, handicrafts and industry and commerce.
There is naturally not much to say about agriculture. It is nothing more than fully implementing the previous land reforms in various places, abolishing feudal land ownership, and liberating all indentured slaves and tenants.
In addition, in some areas that were liberated earlier, pilot projects for agricultural collectivization are also proceeding in an orderly manner. Everything is moving in a good direction. I believe that Xumi's grain output will definitely increase greatly this year.
As for the handicraft industry, after the abolition of the treaty with Zhidong, it lost the impact of industrial products and is gradually recovering.
Of course, in the current recovery period, the policies towards them have become much milder. There is no rush to push forward reforms all at once, and the focus is still more on assistance.
However, while providing assistance, the government also tried to establish a preliminary cooperative production mechanism, and all products were purchased and sold by the government.
Finally, with regard to industry and commerce, Nashida fulfilled her previous promise and adopted a differentiated approach to deal with them.
