Man in Xumi: I can copy the authority of the seven gods

Sumeru, transformed into a city wall.

As the sun gradually rises, the city of Hua, with people coming and going and hawking their wares, although located in the rainforest, shows a sense of liveliness that is no less than that of the Liyue market.

In the thin morning mist, caravans were traveling on the broad road.

These newly minted businessmen chatted and laughed with each other.

With great trust in the power of the gods, they no longer need to be careful to avoid pitfalls on the road like their predecessors did.

There is no need to hire a large number of guards to guard against attacks from monster camps along the road. Just let the camel beasts walk slowly on the stone road at their own pace.

Catching up with this good period of strong support for business development, these villagers who walked out of the rainforest,

With a very simple enthusiasm, he left his hometown which was once extremely isolated due to the mountains, and became a force driving the changes in Xumi.

Listening to the sounds of reading coming from the central area of ​​Zihua city, many businessmen had proud expressions on their faces, feeling gratified that their children had finally escaped from the lack of knowledge that their ancestors had endured for hundreds of years.

The school for these children, which was originally the ranger's office, has also undergone tremendous changes with the recent infrastructure construction.

In the golden sunlight streaming through the window, a black-haired scholar with a pair of dark green ears was teaching on the wide podium, imparting various knowledge to the young students from nearby villages before they officially entered the Ordination College.

"Come on, everyone, open page 173 of the Teyvat Literacy Encyclopedia, and let's continue yesterday's study."

"The text on this page is all about 'animals'."

Tinari turned the pages of the book and sorted out his thoughts.

I was just about to remind the students the topic of today's study as usual, but I soon noticed a boy raising his hand at the front.

"Kalani, what's the problem? Please go ahead."

Tinari nodded, signaling that the child was free to speak.

"Hehe, it's not a problem. It's just that in the previous 'Fruit Chapter', someone brought back a lot of fruits as prizes."

"——Then in this 'animal chapter', will there be bearded tigers and spiny-backed crocodiles as rewards for good children, just like the previous fruits?!"

The boy named Kalani looked at Tinari on the podium with shining eyes and expectant expression.

"."

"Ahem, it seems that Kalani has learned to draw inferences from one example. This is good and worth encouraging."

"But I'm afraid the students will be disappointed. This time the teacher can't find a bearded tiger as a prize for everyone."

"——It is against the law to hunt these large animals without permission.

Haha, you don’t want to see me, Teacher Tinari, being taken away by the discipline officer, right? "

Although I was surprised by the children's wild ideas when I heard the question,

But Tinari, who had been a teacher for some time, quickly resolved this problem with his increasingly rich teaching experience.

Seeing the disappointed expressions on the children's faces, he smiled, took out a rectangular teaching instrument that he had just applied for a few days ago, and said:

"Don't be sad, everyone. Although I can't help you catch two bearded tigers, if you just want to take a look, it's still very simple--"

"Wait a moment, students. I'll go draw the curtains."

After that, Tinari drew the curtains on the sunny side of the room under the curious gaze of the children, and after the room became a little darker, he clicked the play button of this 'teaching high-definition projector'.

"drop"

Following a subtle prompt sound, the red indicator light on the front of the instrument flashed three times, and then the vivid figures of several bearded tigers appeared on the whiteboard in the front of the classroom that was originally used for writing.

This high-definition video not only contains real footage of the bearded tiger's life, eating, hunting and playing,

A voice that is very familiar to children will explain various habits related to animal ecology while the images are playing.

"Wow! Are these all made by Mr. Tinari? I feel like a bearded tiger is about to jump out. So cool!"

After seeing such novel things, the children exclaimed in amazement and looked at Tinari in front of the podium with admiration.

"It's good that the students like it, but this is not just my own effort. It is a device specially developed for teaching by scholars of the Miaolun School in the Academy of Teachings based on the scientific and technological knowledge of Fontaine.

Currently, due to the policies of the two gods, they have been distributed free of charge to various teaching sites."

"I just participated in the filming and explanation of some of the clips. When you grow up, remember to thank the brothers and sisters who developed them~"

"."

Tinari, who was originally planning to take the opportunity to stimulate the children's enthusiasm for learning, suddenly paused and looked outside the window.

The boy who asked the question in the front row asked in confusion after discovering it:

"What's wrong, Mr. Tinari? Is there anything outside the window?"

"Nothing, I just seemed to see a strange parent, I haven't seen him before."

Tinari shook his head, thinking that he might be too tired from making these teaching clips overnight, so he didn't take it to heart.

"——I guess I read it wrong. Everyone, open your books. Today, let's study by following the reflection on the podium, okay?"

Tinari, who had recovered from the accident, asked the question knowingly to the students under the podium who were already impatient to "watch the movie".

"it is good!"

The children's enthusiasm was unprecedentedly high and they answered in unison.

At the same time, on a small hill near the school,

A girl with blue hair, aqua blue robes, and a strange horn ornament on her head lowered her head slightly in embarrassment.

She had a smooth and graceful figure and an appearance as otherworldly as an immortal from legend, but at this moment she felt a bit embarrassed, like a child who had made a mistake in front of her parents.

Recalling the accident just now, she looked at the young man with golden eyes in front of her and apologized with a lack of confidence:

"Um... I'm so sorry, Emperor. I was so surprised just now that I accidentally leaked my aura, which allowed the gentleman on the podium to notice it."

".Even though he is an immortal, facing this special mission, he encountered such a big problem at the very beginning. Surely, Master and his team are better candidates."

Recalling that a few days ago, the Emperor did not choose the three immortals, but specially assigned herself who was working at Yuehai Pavilion in the name of vacation to accompany him to Xumi for inspection, Ganyu felt that her performance was indeed still unsatisfactory.

"Haha, I can't blame you for that."

"Not to mention you, even I had some rare novel and interesting thoughts after seeing such a device. It is normal to have some omissions when you are so excited."

Zhongli shook his head and spoke to comfort his old friend, who had been working in Liyue Harbor for a thousand years but whose mind was still as lacking in confidence as when he was a child.

"——Moreover, the gentleman just now was not an ordinary holder of the Eye of God. In addition to the observation ability brought by his race, I observed the aura around him. I'm afraid that my friend also shared some of his power with him."

"In terms of perception alone, it is similar to most immortals, so it is understandable that you were discovered."

Thinking of the familiar aura he just felt from the young man named "Tinari", Zhongli was not surprised that Ganyu was discovered.

After all, the power of his young friend itself is very outstanding in the aspect of "seeing through the essence". Ordinary people who are blessed by it will naturally have some extraordinary characteristics to a greater or lesser extent.

Moreover, if the latent power in his body is completely unlocked, not to mention that it will attract the attention of the owner of that power, in terms of combat power alone, it would be difficult to find many rivals among the mortal world.

It was noticed that apart from the young man on the podium, the other staff members of the forest patrol team also had more or less some blessings to prevent accidents.

Even for mortals who have only been together for a short time, one has to carefully prepare protection. It is hard to imagine that any god is willing to spend so much time and effort on mortals.

After discovering these details, Zhongli pondered for a moment and gained more confidence in the decision he would make next.

He shook his head, threw away the chaotic thoughts in his mind, looked at Ganyu beside him, and said:

"Also, although the immortals in Jueyunjian have lived longer than you, you don't have to belittle yourself."

"Sitting in Yuehai Pavilion, you have been in charge of Liyue's affairs for a thousand years. In terms of your understanding of national policies and people's livelihood, even if you have read all the seven stars and all the immortals, I am afraid no one can compare to you."

"I called you here this time because I want you to see from a different angle, from a different perspective from the gods, how the recent changes in Xumi have affected the people."

After Zhongli finished speaking, he quietly looked at the junior beside him who had served as the Seven Stars Secretary for a thousand years, wanting to see her opinion on the Xumi education.

"Well, although these are just my humble opinions, they are certainly not as far-sighted as yours, Your Majesty."

"But if we only look at the few schools we found in this countryside, this teaching method is not as good as the many academies in Liyue Harbor in terms of quality.

But in terms of the popularity of children's schooling, I'm afraid it has completely surpassed the ancient academy teaching model in Liyue."

"And this should be just some kind of selection. Judging from the reputation of the Order of the Lords, although I am very unwilling,

But the education system of this country, whether in terms of popularity or development level, has surpassed the current education model of Liyue that has been perfected by the Seven Stars of the past generations. It is indeed worthy of the reputation of the country of wisdom for hundreds of years. "

Although Ganyu was a little discouraged, she was more receptive to the advantages accumulated over history when she thought about the fact that Xumi had been famous for its good academic atmosphere for hundreds of years.

"Haha, what if I say that this scene was created from scratch only in the last few months?"

After hearing Ganyu's words, Zhongli smiled and told the truth to the seven-star secretary's incredible look.

"How is this possible? Such a large-scale educational construction cannot be completed in such a short time even if it is a decree issued by you."

Over such a long period of time, Ganyu, who had long been accustomed to the speed at which various decrees were implemented within Liyue,

When I heard that the huge workload including site construction and personnel mobilization was completed in just a few months, I felt like my cognition was broken.

After all, for a huge project like this, even if it was just coordinating the relationships between the various parties, considering which chamber of commerce to purchase materials from, and how to conduct the bidding for the contractor, it would be enough to give the "Yuhengxing" who was responsible for the land construction a headache for a while.

Not to mention that "Tianquanxing" will need to respond to policy changes in a timely manner to supplement relevant laws and regulations to prevent people from making illegal profits.

"Haha, the political systems of the two countries are different, so the speed of implementing policies is naturally very different."

"This is the result of the gods guiding the entire country's resources and power at their command. Naturally, it is very different from the system of the Seven Stars Gathering for Discussion."

"To put it simply, this is probably the difference between 'governance by the gods' and 'guidance from a distance'."

As for the further "complete human rule", Zhongli hesitated for a moment, and finally chose not to mention it here.

He simply looked up at the sky, and in a general way, while thinking for himself, he also tried to prompt this civil servant who had worked in Liyue for a thousand years to reflect on the pros and cons of the two systems.

"Okay, the answers to these questions will be revealed at the end. There's no need to rush."

Seeing that Ganyu couldn't get any results in a short time, Zhongli didn't urge her, but planned to go to the next stop.

"I think you must have read about the long-term conflict between the rainforest and the desert in the Xumi region in the records of the General Affairs Department. How about you follow me to the desert region to take a look?"

"Well, follow the emperor's arrangements."

Ganyu nodded.

"Which is more important between two groups with conflicting beliefs and interests, and how to reconcile them.

Such questions can best reveal the governing philosophy of the ruler, and I also need more information to make judgments on the differences between the political systems of different countries.”

Thinking back to what the Emperor had said before he left, this inspection would affect an "unprecedented" important decision later on.

Although we don’t know what the decision is, judging from the Emperor’s actions during this period of time, it is most likely related to the two gods of Xumi.

Thinking of this, Ganyu also perked up and showed the same enthusiasm as when working overtime.

I hope to perfectly accomplish the Emperor's assignment this time.

I also hope that during this trip, I can witness with my own eyes what kind of changes these two gods who have just taken office can bring to the country in just a few months.

Thinking of the desert that the Emperor just mentioned, Ganyu couldn't help but begin to recall the information about this area in her mind.

Desert? I remember that the conflict between the rainforest and the desert in the Xumi region has always been serious. The two regions with such a huge difference in environment have completely different beliefs.

With such an all-round conflict from customs to beliefs, even if the gods themselves were to deal with it, the results would most likely be almost zero in a short period of time.

Recalling those salt god believers in Yinyuan Hall who have not been completely converted for thousands of years,

Ganyu has been dealing with religious conflicts for hundreds of years.

For a moment, he was somewhat curious about how the two gods of Xumi were going to deal with this dire situation which was much more complicated than the one in Liyue.

Chapter 174: Thoughts on “Theocracy” and “Manocracy”

Xumi, "desert".

Amidst the lush mountains and vegetation, Ganyu looked at the scene in front of her, which had nothing to do with the desert in her imagination, and looked at the Emperor beside her with some confusion.

"Although I don't doubt that you've come to the wrong place."

"But is it really a 'desert'?"

Smelling the faint floral scent in the air and looking at the little animals running and jumping in front of them, Ganyu felt that this was too different from the "desert" in her impression.

"Haha, it's the desert, of course."
