Genshin Impact, the new God of Grass, makes Xumi great again

"mom!"

Nasida:? ? ?

Chapter 120: Mom Is the Best in the World

mom! ?

Suddenly hearing something incredible, Nashida's hand stopped abruptly, and she almost knocked over the soup that had just been put on the table.

Nashida quickly raised her head and looked at Ying, who was a little at a loss, with a strange look.

Originally it was just a sudden idea to prepare a dinner for them to welcome them, but now it seems that Ying seems to have some extraordinary ideas deep in her heart.

Thinking of this, and noticing the other person's increasingly rosy cheeks, some pleasant thoughts came to her mind.

Thus, a strange atmosphere condensed in the air. Even Paimon, who was eating nearby, stopped what he was doing and looked over with a confused look on his face.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

After coming to her senses, Ying coughed violently a few times, and her red face was so cute.

She didn't know why. It was just a thought hidden in her heart, but she said it out loud subconsciously.

Nashida is so young, how could I have such thoughts? It's not even about other emotions, but about being a mother...

"It's okay. If Ying wants to call you that, it's not impossible."

Looking at Ying's cute reaction, Nashida deliberately showed a bright smile and began to tease her.

To be honest, Ying's reaction reminded her of a pioneer who did not want to reveal his name. Is this the process that the protagonist must go through? It's really interesting.

"Leave it to me with confidence. I will try my best to fulfill my duties."

After saying this, she patted her chest vigorously, showing the love that a mother should have.

"Hmm~"

Sure enough, when she finished saying this, Ying suddenly turned into a steam girl, buried her head directly, and made a strange sound.

"Traveler, what are you doing? Do you really want to acknowledge this relationship?"

After looking at Ying's reaction and then at his own body, Emergency Food suddenly felt a sense of crisis.

Could it be that the traveler really had that kind of thought? This is truly terrifying.

A mother this tall was still a little too advanced for Paimon's young mind.

"No, that's not the case!"

After Paimeng's shout, Ying, whose brain had crashed, finally came back online and began to defend himself.

"Well, I can understand it. It's like plants returning to the soil. I'm sure Ying feels the same way."

However, judging from the increasingly bright smile on Nashida's face, it seemed that the explanation did not have the desired effect.

Feeling something of his own shattered to the ground, the blond traveler could only let out a helpless cry.

...

"It turns out that so many interesting things have happened in Xumi City during this period of time."

After the little episode, although the atmosphere was still a bit weird, with the help of Paimon, the three of them successfully finished the sumptuous dinner.

After that, out of curiosity about each other's experiences during this period, the three of them sat together and chatted.

Of course, Nashida would definitely not tell anyone about her trip to the desert, but instead used some other events that happened in Xumi City as a substitute.

For example, what new things have been developed, what reform policies have been announced by the authorities, and the whereabouts of the gods that Ying and Paimon are most concerned about.

However, it is worth mentioning that Apep did not come to Xumi City with Nashida in the end, but stayed in the Thousand Valleys Desert.

After all, she is an ancient dragon no matter what. Even if Nashida's status is acknowledged now, the pride in her bones will not change.

If she were to be allowed to stay with humans now, there might be chaos, especially since she had transformed and adopted the appearance of Nashida.

So after sending her an enhanced void terminal to ensure that she could connect to the void network, Nashida let her do as she pleased and let her continue to stay there.

Anyway, for the current Xumi, it is not a bad thing for this ancient dragon to stay at home. In fact, it is a good thing to stay at home a little.

"What about you guys? It must have been very hard during this period of time." After finishing her own topic, Nashida asked Paimon in a timely manner.

According to Elhaisen's report, she knew very well how many tasks these two had completed during this period of time.

I can only say that he is worthy of being the number one tool man in Teyvat. As long as the remuneration is enough, his efficiency is really terrifyingly high.

"Hehe, it's actually okay. It's Ying who's doing all the work. It's not hard for me."

Paimeng, who originally wanted to brag, felt a little embarrassed after seeing Ying's expressionless face, and poked his two little hands in front of him.

"But I also cheered for Ying. You know Nashida, I always cheered very loudly every time."

But as if feeling a little embarrassed, Paimon looked at Nashida with expectant eyes, hoping to get some recognition.

"How dare you say that? Every time you yell, people will look over, so every time we fight we have to fight head-on."

But what was waiting for her was not Nashida's praise, but a pair of big hands from Ying.

While she was not paying attention, Ying grabbed her from behind and started ruffling her hair.

Ever since she accidentally said that word, Paimon has always had the upper hand. Now she finally found an opportunity, and Ying naturally would not let it go.

"Traveler, what are you doing? Nashida is watching me. Let me go."

In order to escape from Ying's clutches, Paimon began to struggle in Ying's arms.

But with her small body, how could she defeat the battle-hardened traveler? She could only silently endure the beating amid Nashida's laughter.

"Ying, let Paimeng go for now. Even though the execution was bad, her original intention was still good."

Finally, seeing that Paimon was about to explode, Nashida rescued her from Ying's arms and let her hide behind her.

However, judging from her frightened expression, at least in the short term, this God's Mouth will not dare to say anything again.

"The time for playing around is over, now it's time to get down to business."

After such a cordial interaction with Paimon, Ying, who was originally shy, finally returned to normal, and Nashida took the opportunity to discuss the next plan.

"Not long ago, Mr. Elhaisen sent someone to inform me that he wanted us to go there."

Chapter 121 Undercurrent

"No matter how many times I take it, the public transportation in Xumi is so convenient."

Getting off the public carriage, Paimon couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the carriage moving away.

Since they came to Xumi, except for the initial situation when they had to walk from the border of Liyue all the way to Xumi City due to unknown reasons, Xumi public transportation has been involved in every trip they have made since then.

The same was true when they went to the city center of Xumi City this time.

"And this thing called a newspaper is really new. I've only heard of Fontaine having a steam bird newspaper before, but I didn't expect Xumi to have one too."

Because they were in a hurry before, she and Ying basically didn't pay much attention to these things. Today, when the pace slowed down, they noticed that Xumi actually had a new type of media, newspapers.

Out of curiosity, several people also bought several copies from the newsstand on the street.

"In fact, it existed a long time ago, but before the Void was upgraded by Lord Grass God, national newspapers like the one you have in your hand did not exist."

Facing Paimon's curious gaze, Nashida, as the wisest among the three, began to explain to her the origin of this newspaper.

After regaining power, in addition to continuing to use the void as a propaganda platform, Nashida naturally did not forget about newspapers, a paper media that can be touched.

So with her encouragement, the newspaper in Paimon's hand came into being.

On the front page of this newspaper, the three big words "Xinghuo Newspaper" were printed at the top of the newspaper.

This is the official organ of the Xumi Renaissance Alliance and also the most authoritative voice of the Xumi Nation.

According to Nashida, the origin of the name of this newspaper can be traced back to a pen name used by Grass God before the Renaissance Alliance was established.

This made Paimeng feel a little confused. Could it be that as a god, he would write articles like humans?

In the previous Three Kingdoms period, she had never seen any god do this.

But Ying on the side had some ideas of her own about this. After all, as a traveler across the world, she was not unfamiliar with these things, which made her even more curious about the God of Grass.

"There is indeed a lot of news about Xumi on it, but I don't seem to understand it."

As the official newspaper of the Alliance Central Committee, the content is naturally all about national affairs, and due to the influence of Nashida, these articles often use some proprietary vocabulary, which makes Paimon, who has never been exposed to these things, feel a little pressured.

"If you want to know something else, such as an introduction to Xumi's scenery and food, it's better not to read this newspaper."

Seeing Paimon scratching his head while looking at the newspaper, Nashida found it a little funny and took out another newspaper that she had prepared long ago.

"That's all serious official information. How could it possibly contain what you're looking for? Why don't you take a look at this one?"

When establishing Xumi's media industry, in addition to the "Spark Newspaper", Nashida certainly did not ignore the daily needs of the people of Xumi, but simultaneously opened up the right to create other types of newspapers.

For example, the "Sumeri Daily" in her hand contains all kinds of news about Xumi, big and small, and even includes advertisements published by some businesses.

Newspapers like this, which are closely related to life and have no reading threshold, are the newspapers that ordinary people in Xumi will buy.

As for the Spark?

Generally, it is watched by government officials, scholars, and some people who want to understand policy trends.

"Sure enough, the content on this is much more normal. It's not those boring decrees or articles."

Flipping through the newspaper handed to him by Nashida, Paimon nodded repeatedly, obviously very satisfied with the complete list of Xumi delicacies listed therein.

But just as Paimon was imagining the delicious food he would be able to eat in the future, Ying was looking at the newspaper in his hand and frowned.

"Nashida, do you know anything about the god, the Great Kindness Tree King?"

After saying that, she leaned over and showed Nashida the contents of the newspaper.

On the front page of the newspaper, a shocking sentence in bold was attracting their attention.

"Does the Renaissance Alliance's policy go against the wishes of the Great Compassion Tree King?"

Under this eye-catching title, the article systematically discusses this point of view from multiple angles and criticizes the current situation.

Simply put, some people believe that the various social reforms that the Renaissance Alliance is currently carrying out on Xumi are contrary to the wishes left by the Great Compassionate Tree King.

It also placed particular emphasis on land reform, industrial and commercial transformation, and changes to the system of governance by the scholar-oligarchy of the Council of the Churches.

In addition, in order to increase the persuasiveness, the author of the article also deliberately quoted many of the original words of King Dacishu to defend his proposal to restore the past system.

However, one thing worth noting is that although the entire article criticizes the Renaissance Alliance everywhere, it dares not mention the current Grass God at all, and it is obvious that it is afraid of him.

"The Great Kindness Tree King? She was the previous ruler of Xumi, but unfortunately, she died for some reason five hundred years ago. The grass god of Xumi now should be the Little Auspicious Grass King."

Nashida did not give a direct answer to Ying's question, but through reading the content of the article and the experience of walking in Sumeru during this period of time, Ying quickly understood what she meant.

"So, someone is opposing the current Xumi government and the rule of the God of Grass?"

This is actually not difficult to understand, because while the current Xumi policies are beneficial to the people of Xumi, the interests of some people have also been greatly damaged.

This group of people is mainly composed of members of the old Sumeru academic families, big businessmen and capital groups, compradors, and a small number of landlords.

Unlike the Great Sage and others, in the tide of revolution, they did not choose to resist to the end, but chose to surrender to the Renaissance Alliance and expressed their support for the New Xumi Government.

Therefore, during the Great Trial, many of them escaped trial out of considerations of solidarity.

But since the Renaissance Alliance officially launched the comprehensive transformation of Xumi, they have gradually revealed their true colors due to the deprivation of their privileges and the damage to their vital interests.

On the one hand, they still supported the new government on the surface, but on the other hand, they gathered again and began to spread some not-so-"correct" remarks in Xumi society.

It is obvious that this newspaper was created as a tool to promote their ideas when Nashida allowed the establishment of newspapers.

"Well, plus the great prestige of the Great Compassion Tree King in the hearts of the people of Xumi, it is really possible that they could deceive some of the people."

Although she expressed concern in words, Nashida's tone seemed very calm, as if she had expected this.

"What should we do? This must be very dangerous. Should we report it directly to El Haisen later?"

After hearing the conversation here, even Paimon, who was originally immersed in his fantasy about food, reacted and expressed his concern for himself.

"You are stupid. We can all think of it, but Grass God and El Haisen can't think of it. Do you still need to ask questions?"
