Genshin Impact: I, the first water follower, makes players excited

Chapter 269 The New Xumi

"Oh? Are you awake?"

When Ying and Paimon opened their eyes again, they found Cole sitting next to them. Ying glanced at the decoration of the room, and after a moment, she confirmed that this was the Huacheng Castle.

Ying rubbed her dizzy head and sat up with the help of Ke Lai.

"Is this Huacheng? Why are we here?"

Originally, Paimeng was lying on Ying's chest in a daze. As soon as Ying sat up, she rolled under the bed with a gurgling sound.

While picking up Paimon, Cole answered Ying's questions.

"Master brought you back. He said you were injured and needed to rest here for a while. Oh, and he also prepared some medicine for you. I'll go make it for you!"

When she heard the word medicine, Ying immediately recalled the decoction that Tinari had prepared before. There was only one memory in her mind, and that was bitterness!

Ying instantly regained some strength, grabbed Kelai's arm, and said seriously,

"No need...Ah! Sorry, I didn't mean to!"

After holding Cole's arm, Ying belatedly remembered that due to the Demonic Scale Disease, Cole was a little afraid of being touched by others. Once, when Paimon wanted to touch her, she resisted violently.

However, after apologizing, Ying suddenly discovered that Ke Lai did not have the same stress reaction as before.

Even from Ying's observation, the gray-black scales on Cole's arms had disappeared, and even when she picked up Paimon just now, Cole's hands did not shake.

So, Cole's demonic lin disease was cured? Has Xines succeeded?

Um, now that you mention it, how long were Paimon and I unconscious?

Ying asked Kelai about some changes in Sumeru, but Kelai's knowledge was limited. Ying only learned from Kelai that the biggest change in Sumeru was that Sumeru had now completely closed the void.

Ying was a little confused. Judging from the previous discussion, Nashida wanted to take the dispersed power into her own hands, but now she seemed to have taken another approach, which was to abolish the Void privileges directly.

However, in this case, can the Xumi people, who have always relied on the void, really adapt to this situation?

And those high-ranking officials of the House of Representatives, won’t many of them stand up to oppose Nashida’s policies?

But soon, Tinari resolved her doubts. Relying on Tinari's identity as a good friend of the current disciplinary officer, Ying successfully obtained some inside information from him.

Including but not limited to, the great disciplinary officer Senor's 'fairness and integrity' arrested many scholars who participated in the god-making plan, and the acting sage Elhaisen's 'observance' successfully found evidence of the crimes of many scholars from clues.

The only coincidence is that most of these scholars whose criminal evidence was uncovered had participated in the deification plan.

There are now many vacancies within the House of Lords, but under the supervision of representatives from the six major factions, everything is running normally.

This also opened up a path for advancement for many low-level scholars in Xumi. In the past, their mentors suppressed them and prevented them from graduating, but now their mentors urge them to graduate.

There is no way, there are indeed not enough people. Under Nashida's initiative, the rule of "the capable get the job" has been deeply rooted in people's minds. As long as you are capable enough, you can be promoted.

Even if you come from the desert.

Nashida also launched a desert aid program, and all scholars of the Fatwa can sign up to participate in this program.

After being personally selected and assessed by Lord Grass God, as long as you teach in the desert for three years, you will be promoted to a higher rank upon returning to the Teaching Institute. With this resume, you can also get a larger share of future research funds.

If the research topic involves desert environment management, desert personnel deployment, etc. that are beneficial to desert development, it will receive strong support from the Ministry of Education.

A series of drastic reforms made Ying open her mouth wide. Although she could understand what Tinari meant, she actually did not understand what these policies would transform Xumi and the desert into.

.....

But obviously, players in the parallel world cannot see what specific work Nashida did. The plot only tells players that Nashida closed the void and took a series of measures to solve the desert problem.

"What a perfunctory 'series of measures'..."

"Come on, can you actually write this? If you write it badly, you'll be criticized by the players. If you write it well, you might even end up getting a job at the government."

"Okay, okay, let's just arrange the silver bracelet right?"

.....

After listening to Tinari's additional information, Ying wanted to go back to the House of Religion to see what changes had taken place!

Tinari looked at the well-educated Ying and nodded.

"Although you seem to have recovered, you still need to drink a bowl of medicine."

Tinari waved to Cole in the distance, and Cole came over to the group with two bowls of steaming medicine.

That's right, when Tinari just opened his mouth, he asked Cole to cook the medicine. It would not be good if the patient did not take the medicine on time.

Ying, with a bitter face, looked at Paimeng, who also had a bitter face. The two took the medicine and looked at Cole for help, but all they got was a side profile.

Tinari looked at the two people's performance with a smile, and then said,

"What's wrong? This medicine isn't bitter. Drink it quickly. It won't be good if it gets cold."

Not bitter? Even Paimon/I wouldn't believe it!

Ying and Paimeng both grumbled in their hearts, then closed their eyes, made up their minds, pinched their noses, and quickly poured the bowl of medicine into their mouths. However, Paimeng was one step faster...

"Ah! So hot!"

Paimon threw the medicine bowl in his hand away and kept fanning his burned tongue with his hands, as if this could cool it down.

Fortunately, Tinari was quick-witted and caught Paimon's medicine steadily.

Skillful technique, not a drop spilled!

Tinari looked at Paimon with amusement and made a joke casually,

"Paimon is burned. Kelai, please take out the package of herbs from the third shelf of the cabinet and make another bowl for Paimon."

"What! No!"

Paimon shouted to the sky, wanting to cry but having no tears.

Even Ying beside her felt a little relieved that she drank a little slowly, otherwise she would definitely be the one who got scalded!

Having learned her lesson, Ying immediately changed her strategy and drank the medicine in the bowl in small sips. But unexpectedly, the medicine was not bitter at all, and was even a little sweet!

"Tinari, is this really medicine?"

Tinari smiled but said nothing, while Cole nodded while suppressing his laughter.

"This is indeed a decoction, but it only contains a few herbs that replenish qi and blood. Moreover, the master specifically instructed that more honey should be added when boiling this medicine."

Ying silently glanced at Paimon, who seemed to have lost all hope in life.

Paimeng was completely stunned at this moment. If this medicine wasn't bitter, then wouldn't she have suffered a huge loss by getting burned?!
