"You can browse the pages slowly after we get back. Getting online is only an extra function of a smartphone. Now I'll teach you the most basic and most important function—making calls," Wei Zhao had no choice but to interrupt.
"Making calls?" Leng Leng was taken aback.
"That's right. This is the essential meaning of a phone's existence. As long as you know each other's number, you can talk to each other even if you're ten thousand miles apart, just as if you were face to face," Wei Zhao said with a smile.
"That amazing?" Leng Leng was instantly shocked, so much so that she even forgot the most basic of pretenses. Could this be the legendary thousand-mile voice transmission?
"It is amazing, but you'll get used to it soon enough." As he spoke, Wei Zhao demonstrated it for her. With the little cold girl's formidable learning ability, this was child's play—she mastered it at a glance.
"So the thousand-mile voice transmission really does exist, and even ordinary people with no cultivation at all can use it. This is practically a divine artifact! If this were in my part of the world, it would have been snatched up like mad long ago. The mundane world actually has such a powerful thing—it's truly wondrous..." Leng Leng could not help murmuring to herself.
Quiet as she was, Wei Zhao overheard her and asked at once, "Does your part of the world not have phones? Huxi Province shouldn't be that backward, surely?"
"Huh? No... I mean, no, my part of the world is very remote and cut off from the outside world, so I've never seen such a thing as a phone..." Leng Leng gave a start and hastily covered her tracks.
"Is that so? There's still a place like that in Huxi Province? The scenery must be wonderful. If I get the chance, I'd really like to go and see it," Wei Zhao said, half believing, half doubting.
"Uh... we'll talk about it if the chance comes..." Leng Leng shook her head with a bitter smile. She had not lied—she had been speaking of the Great Primordial Minor Jianghu, whose scenery truly far surpassed the chaotic, clamorous mundane world. But how could an ordinary person like Wei Zhao ever get to such a place?
"The chance will come." Wei Zhao smiled faintly, a meaning hidden in it, and then stopped pressing the matter, for he knew it was no use asking now. "Let me teach you some other uses. These days, besides making calls and getting online, smartphones have plenty of interesting apps and games too."
"Really?" Leng Leng once again wore a look of delight. A mere little phone, and yet it had so many wondrous functions—the mundane world was truly no simple place.
As he taught her these things, the two of them naturally drew close again, even nearer than they had been on the bus. Once more catching that refreshing, orchid-like fragrance from her, Wei Zhao could not help feeling stirred. This feeling of courting a girl gave him a peculiar sensation, as though it were both somewhat the same as before and somewhat different.
Just then, scene after scene of how he had first met and come to know his various beauties rose unbidden in Wei Zhao's mind. Every encounter was a beautiful memory, and now, in order to uncover the origins and true nature of those Heavenly Dao experts, a similar scene was playing out once again—only the leading lady had changed to the unapproachable Leng Leng. To be continued.
